Hearing this, Zuo Weiyi looked up, her dark eyes still filled with heartache. “Then why didn’t you tell me? Why didn’t you take revenge for our child? She killed our child… that’s my child… my… ”
Her heart was in so much pain that she couldn’t breathe.
At the beginning, she thought that her child had only been lost accidentally in that chaotic battle, so she couldn’t blame anyone. She had always buried the pain of losing her child at the bottom of her heart and endured it alone.
It wasn’t until yesterday that she realized that her child hadn’t been lost accidentally. Instead, Tengtang Xi had shot her.
But he had known all along, yet he had concealed it from her. He hadn’t even punished the murderer who had killed their child.
Her heart felt as if it was being stabbed by a knife. Zuo Weiyi clutched her chest. She felt as if a sharp blade was ruthlessly gouging and digging at her.
Looking at her pained expression, he felt as if his heart was being torn apart.
He closed his eyes and opened them. He said to his mother and sister, “You two go out first.”
Shen Lanzhi and Shi Nuannuan looked at him. They were a little worried, but looking at the situation they chose to leave the space for the two of them.
After the mother and sister left, he reached out and pulled Zuo Weiyi into his arms again, binding her tightly.
Zuo Weiyi struggled, as if she was angry at him and didn’t want to be touched by him.
But the more she struggled, the tighter his embrace became, not letting her break free.
“It’s my fault. I’m sorry,” he said softly as he hugged her tightly.
If he had known that Tengtang Xi would do this to her last night, he would have dealt with Tengtang Xi first.
He didn’t dare to think about what he would have done if she hadn’t been washed up on that shore last night but been swallowed by the sea instead.
He was wrong, completely wrong.
Zuo Weiyi only stopped struggling after hearing his apology.
However, her heart was truly in pain.
“Do you know how much I looked forward to him coming into this world… I… prepared… so many clothes for him… shoes, toys… but he suddenly disappeared. I wasn’t prepared at all… he suddenly disappeared…,” Zuo Weiyi sobbed.
As he hugged and listened to her sobbing voice, Shi Yuting’s heart was torn apart; he hugged her even tighter.
He knew that the loss of the child had always been a pain in her heart.
But all this while, he had never seen her make a scene. Only that night, she had secretly shed tears in the hospital.
But it turned out that she had been hiding this matter at the bottom of her heart, making him think that she had already come to peace with it in her heart.
“It doesn’t matter to you whether this child is or not…”
His indifference made her heart ache even more.
The moment she said it, it made his heart tremble.
He let go of her and let her look at him. “How can I be indifferent? That’s my child!”
There were many things that he did not say or reveal, but that did not mean that he did not care.
This was his first time experiencing the feeling of being a father. God knew how excited and happy he was, and even a little flustered. He was also looking forward to his child’s arrival in this world.
Looking at her heartbroken eyes, Shi Yuting’s heart instantly felt like it had been ruthlessly slashed by something. It was so painful that he could not breathe!
However, hearing his explanation, Zuo Weiyi lowered her eyes.
