Chapter 353: Zhan Yanxun, the child is you!
"You want to start over with me? That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard."
Jiang Qianhui's sarcastic gaze deeply stung Zhan Yanxun. As proud as he was, how could he have ever suffered such humiliation?
“I know you’re upset now that you’ve lost your child, but I won’t hold it against you. I’ll stay with you.”
"I don't need you to accompany me."
Suddenly, Jiang Qianhui grabbed Zhan Yanxun and said, "Zhan Yanxun, do you know how much I hate your innocent look right now, as if nothing has anything to do with you?"
Zhan Yanxun's eyes were serious, and Jiang Qianhui said contemptuously, "The child is gone. Is it because you feel it's not your child that you're not even a little bit sad?"
Zhan Yanxun looked at Jiang Qianhui, and the way she looked at him made him feel as if a hand was gripping his heart, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.
"Zhan Yanxun, why should I be the only one struggling in hell? You should come down too."
"What do you mean?"
Zhan Yanxun looked at Jiang Qianhui, and a sad smile suddenly appeared on Jiang Qianhui's lips, making Zhan Yanxun feel inexplicably uneasy.
"That dead child was your child. He was your son, Zhan Yanxun's son!"
Jiang Qianhui's words made Zhan Yanxun's mind explode.
He gripped Jiang Qianhui's shoulders tightly, his eyes bloodshot, and said, "What did you say?"
Jiang Qianhui said coldly, "The child is yours; it's you who failed to save your own son."
Jiang Qianhui looked at Zhan Yanxun with eyes full of deep hatred.
Zhan Yanxun felt a sharp pain in his heart. He gripped Jiang Qianhui's shoulders tightly, increasing the pressure on his hands.
His eyes were bloodshot as he said, "You said that on purpose, didn't you? You just want to see me suffer."
“You’re right, I want to see you suffer! But what I said is true, that child is yours, Zhan Yanxun’s child. There was never any medical malpractice, it was just a lie Gu Xunjing made up to protect my child.”
Zhan Yanxun was shocked. He had doubted the truth of the matter before, but he had already sent people to investigate it, and the process and the people involved were all thoroughly investigated.
Indeed, that medical accident, and the drastic change in Jiang Qianhui's personality, which made her so indifferent to him, led him to believe that it was this medical accident that caused her sudden change in personality.
“I’ve already had someone check, and it’s true.”
Jiang Qianhui said coldly, "Gu Xunjing may seem unreliable, but he's incredibly meticulous. Everything he does is flawless, and no one would believe a man would be willing to raise someone else's child. So this sounds even more believable, but you're wrong, you've been deceived, Zhan Yanxun. The child in my belly is yours, not Gu Xunjing's at all."
"No, you're lying to me."
"You can continue investigating. I've already shown you my hand; I don't believe you can't find out the truth."
Jiang Qianhui suddenly smiled with relief.
“I was quite sad just now because the baby is gone, but then I thought about it and realized that having your child wouldn’t have been a good thing for either Gu Xunjing or me. He was such a good person, he shouldn’t have raised someone else’s child.”
Listening to Jiang Qianhui's words and seeing the relieved smile on her face, Zhan Yanxun had never felt such pain.
He pressed Jiang Qianhui onto the hospital bed, his hands gripping her shoulders tightly.
"So you see our child as an obstacle, a burden, is that right? Preventing you from being with Gu Xunjing."
"You're the one who didn't save the child. The child was too sensible; he wanted his mother to start over, so he chose not to come into this world, so that I wouldn't be tied to you, this devil."
Zhan Yanxun could not bear it. He could not bear that Jiang Qianhui would rather the child be gone so that she would no longer be tied to him.
"That's our child. Why are you telling me?"
If Jiang Qianhui had told him sooner that the child in her belly was his, he would have done anything to keep her by his side.
"Because you have no right to know. A person like you doesn't deserve to have children. Even children hate you and refuse to come into this world to see you."
Zhan Yanxun, in a fit of rage, grabbed Jiang Qianhui by the neck, feeling as if his body was being scraped by a knife.
Anxious.
Jiang Qianhui glared fiercely at Zhan Yanxun, who then realized he was losing control of his emotions. He released Jiang Qianhui, his hands trembling.
"Why are you being so cruel to me? You won't even tell me about my own children."
"Why should I tell you? Getting pregnant with your child is such bad luck for me. I originally wanted to have an abortion, but the doctor said that if I aborted the child, it would be very difficult for me to get pregnant again. So I planned to keep the child and leave the father, but I didn't expect that the baby would think that having a father like you is such bad luck, and he actually refused to come into this world. He is so sensible."
Jiang Qianhui's words and the disdain in her eyes were a slow, agonizing torture for Zhan Yanxun.
"Stop talking. Stop talking."
Zhan Yanxun was on the verge of emotional collapse. He desperately wanted to have a child with Jiang Qianhui so that he could raise him as his heir.
However, Jiang Qianhui did not get pregnant in the two years after their marriage, and he firmly opposed it even when his mother suggested surrogacy.
Only Jiang Qianhui is worthy of bearing his child.
"I thought your feelings for me could withstand the test. I thought I didn't need to explain my relationship with Qiao Weiwei; you understood me and knew I had no interest in extramarital affairs. But I never expected our relationship to be so fragile."
Jiang Qianhui gave a cold smile and said, "So now you're blaming me for not trusting you enough. Even if you were in bed with another woman, even if you weren't wearing anything, I would absolutely believe that you hadn't gone that far, right?"
Zhan Yanxun looked at Jiang Qianhui, whose gaze was disdainful and desolate.
The girl who used to always be by his side, smiling with eyes that crinkled into crescent moons, is gone forever.
"There was nothing between us before. You just woke up, so get some rest."
After saying this, Zhan Yanxun walked out.
With each step I took, I felt as if all my strength was being drained from my body.
He walked a short distance, then knelt down heavily.
Jiang Qianhui's words echoed in his mind: the child was his.
The aborted child was actually his?
How much did she hate him that she wanted to take his child and leave to marry Gu Xunjing? Why did she treat him like this?
Why be so cruel to him?
As Jiang Qianhui watched Zhan Yanxun leave, his arrogant back view made her realize that even someone as aloof as him had finally lost his composure.
He should be in pain; he failed to save his child. He should be in pain and repent.
She shouldn't be the only one in hell; he should come down and repent too.
Zhan Yanxun, losing his child is God's retribution for him; it is his own retribution.
Jiang Qianhui buried her head in the blanket, tears slowly soaking the pillow. But she should have seen him, even just once, just once.
Jiang Qianhui hid under the covers, crying so hard her whole body trembled.
