Chapter 6: You Will Be Honored for the Sake of Your Baby
Since Mu Ziyou started vomiting that night, several days have passed but she shows no sign of stopping.
Li Qiaosheng finally realizes that something is wrong. After an examination in the hospital, he finds it out that she has been pregnant for two months.
“Pregnant…” Mu Ziyou’s expressions are complicated. “Why at this time…”
Regarding her relationship with Li Qiaosheng at present, does she dare to give birth to this baby?
To her surprise, although Li Qiaosheng doesn’t show much concern by his facial expression, he no longer forces her to give blood to Xia Wanyan. He even hired an experienced nanny to look after her.
Mu Ziyou couldn’t help crying with joy. Even though Li Qiaosheng doesn’t say anything nice, he doesn’t purposely find fault with her anymore. He even drops in on her intentionally or unintentionally.
Some of the wounds in her broken heart seem to have gradually healed day by day.
However, peaceful life is doomed to end fast.
One day, when she is sunning herself in the yard, she finds Li Qiaosheng walking towards her in a rage with a note in his hand.
“Mu Ziyou, it seems that you are in a good mood, huh? Do you think that when you are pregnant, you will be honored for the sake of your baby? You’d better keep it in your mind that it is Wanyan who is my beloved. I will get you out of this house as soon as you give birth to the baby!”
After finishing these words, he throws the note at her and turns to leave without a glance back.
Deeply hurt by Qiaosheng’s words again, Mu Ziyou’s face turns white. She is in a daze for a while before she takes a look at the note which is a farewell letter from Xia Wanyan.
In the letter, Xia Wanyan said that the reason why she left was Mu Ziyou. She could not bear to see the pregnant Mu Ziyou wandering around her every day. But she wouldn’t stay there like a mistress any longer unless Qiaosheng promises to marry her, or she would never appear in front of him again!
In the following days, Mu Ziyou didn’t see Li Qiaosheng again, either.
The servants said in private that he has gone to look for Xia Wanyan and it seems that he has been determined not to return until he finds her.
Mu Ziyou has been living a miserable life. She has no time to fix her broken heart because her morning sickness is very severe. But for the sake of the baby she carries, she has to force down the tasteless food obediently.
The baby, the combination of her and Qiaosheng, is her only hope and concern now…
The baby probably has sensed her emotions and responds accordingly, which makes her vomit after eating. Then she will eat, vomit, eat vomit, again and again. After several days, she feels that her spirits and energy are being drained little by little.
When Li Qiaosheng finally appears in front of her again, it is also a little hard for him to believe his own eyes.
The skin of the woman in front of him has turned from snow-white into wax-yellow without any luster.
She seems that she has been reduced to bones.
He has been on a business trip for only a week. How has she maltreated herself and become like this? There is a flash of tenderness and pain in his eyes.
But when he thinks of the pain that Wanyan has suffered because of her, his face becomes hard again. Abruptly he rushes out of the room, dragging her behind!
“Why is my heart softened again? Fine, fine, Mu Ziyou, you want to use the Battered-Body Trick again, right?” Qiaosheng thinks to himself.
“Where are you taking me?” Mu Ziyou is terrified. Is he going to…
“Since you are not willing to eat obediently and I won’t let my baby starve, I will get you a nutritional transfusion!”
The second he finishes his words, his cell phone starts ringing. He takes out the phone. On its screen the caller’s name is flickering — Xia Wanyan, whom he hasn’t seen for a long time. At the same time, Mu Ziyou standing next to him also sees that, and her heart sinks to the bottom.
Sure enough, the man immediately lets go of her and steps away while picking up the phone.
When he comes back, he still looks extremely cold, which causes her to retreat several steps subconsciously.
This scene is captured by Li Qiaosheng, and it makes him confirm that she is feeling guilty. Then he approaches her step by step until her back is against the cold wall behind and nowhere to escape.
“Tell me, who—is—the—father—of—the—baby?” The man tries to restrain his inner anger and asks.
“Li Qiaosheng, what the hell are you talking about?” Mu Ziyou’s eyes pop wide and she stares at him incredulously. “You don’t know who is the father of the baby in my womb, do you?”
“On that day, my father and you, what happened? This baby… is it his?”
