Zhao Xiulan was so crazy that she didn't care about her own life. She slapped Wei Bin, making her look like a crazy woman.
Wei Bin was stunned at first, then his face turned red. In the end, he said nothing in guilt, allowing Zhao Xiulan to vent the anger in her heart.
It wasn't until Zhao Xiulan was tired from hitting him that she lost all her strength and collapsed on the bed.
At this moment, Zhao Xiulan's hair was disheveled, and her eyes were lifeless. She didn't even have the strength to open her mouth to scold others. Other than choking and crying, she couldn't do anything else.
Her eyes were as empty as ashes. She felt that her life was terrible. She could hear the discussions of others even with her eyes closed.
"Have you heard? Zhao Xiulan's child is gone."
"We heard, we heard. We heard that it was gone at night."
"Then do you know the reason?"
"Hehe, I heard that it was the sin of two people who didn't control themselves--"
"Exactly. It was a sin. A good child is gone."
"Exactly. This Zhao Xiulan is really shameless. She already has a child, but she still seduced a man. She deserves to suffer like this."
"Who says so? This man doesn't understand, but doesn't she understand women? It's taboo to have sex in the first three months of pregnancy. This is really the first time you've seen a man in your 800 lives."
"Aiya, it's not like you don't know what kind of person she is. Tsk, looking at her slutty appearance, she's not a well-behaved person. She deserves it. Bah--"
"That's right, that's right--"
...
Zhao Xiulan did not need to hear it with her own ears. She could already think of these things herself. There were probably even worse things than this.
But, what did this have to do with her?
What did this have to do with her?
Zhao Xiulan's heart was screaming non-stop, but she was already unable to do anything else. She stared blankly at Wei Bin, who she wanted to tear into pieces, and continued to stand in front of her.
His voice was hoarse and low as he said, "The doctor said that you need to rest well and eat more. Your body is too weak, so you need to take care of yourself."
"The doctor said that this child is gone. It doesn't matter. We are still young and can still give birth. You--"
Before he could finish, Zhao Xiulan used her last bit of strength and said, "Scram! Scram for me--"
After saying that, she threw her arm out forcefully. However, she did not manage to hit him and fell down instead.
At this moment, Wei Bin's expression was very bad. This woman, he had already been so nice to her, so why wasn't she gone yet?
He was also sad about losing his child. He was not young anymore and did not have any children at the moment. However, this Zhao Xiulan was usually quite smart, so why was she acting like a lunatic now?
Wei Bin's mind was one-track. He could not understand all of this. In his opinion, it was normal for her to suffer a little.
Then, he thought about how the doctor said that the woman might not be in a good mood after losing her child. At the same time, Wei Bin blamed himself. He did not know about this before. It was only yesterday, when the doctor told him that he knew that they could not sleep together for the first three months of pregnancy.
Thinking of this, he said guiltily, "Alright, I'll get lost. I'll get lost. Don't be angry. Your body is not well. Sleep a little longer and rest well. I, I'll leave first."
After saying that, he put on his hat and turned around to leave. He did not say another word of comfort.
Even if he said more, he was afraid that he would not. He had always been like this. Even if he was sad, he would hold it in his heart.
Meanwhile, Zhao Xiulan just stared blankly as Wei Bin left. Tears streamed down her face.
Her heart was broken. a pain that she had never felt before swept over her.
She kept wailing in her heart. Why, why was this?
Why was it that both of them graduated from high school and married men from the army? Why was Zhao Xiulan's life so terrible? Why, why was this so?
She finally got pregnant first, one step faster than Kang Xiaoqiao. However, she never expected that her child would be killed by this man. It was all his fault--
Zhao Xiulan closed her eyes weakly. It was as if all the strength in her body had been drained. Her face was ashen.
The man she married was not as good-looking and handsome as Lu Yichen. She accepted it. The man she married was not as powerful and influential as Lu Yichen's family. She also accepted it. The man she married was not as gentle and considerate as Lu Yichen. He did not love his wife as much as Lu Yichen. She accepted all of these... She accepted them all.
She had already accepted her fate. The arrival of this child made her put everything aside. She only wanted to give birth to him wholeheartedly. She accepted all the hardships she had suffered.
But, why?
Why did she have to meet such a man? Why?
Was it useful for her to reject him? It was useless for her to reject him. How many times had she rejected him? But, which time was it not--
It was fine now. The child was gone. It was gone. All of it was gone.
Wu--
Zhao Xiulan's tears were like a dam that had burst. She allowed them to run rampant. At this moment, she felt that living was a form of torture. When she thought about the child that was not in her stomach, her entire body hurt so much that she almost suffocated.
Wu--
Her child, her child--
Zhao Xiulan used all her strength to tightly hold onto the bedsheet. Her hands were white, and the veins on them were clearly visible.
Just as her heart was in so much pain that she was about to die, a warm towel was placed on her face. Then, he slowly and clumsily wiped her face.
Zhao Xiulan opened her eyes forcefully and saw that Wei Bin's face was completely red. He was meticulously wiping her face.
After Zhao Xiulan saw clearly, she turned her head away forcefully, not wanting to look at Wei Bin again.
Then, she said weakly with disgust, "Didn't you leave? Why did you come back?"
Wei Bin sat beside her. After a long time, he said clumsily, "Wife, child, if it's gone, then it's gone. You, don't waste your body like this."
"I, I--"
Wei Bin held back for a long time. That apology was on the tip of his tongue, but he could not say it.
Then, he took out a stack of neatly folded bills from his pocket and stuffed them into Zhao Xiulan's hand. "You, didn't you want a butler? In the future, in the future, I'll let you manage it."
"You rest well. I'll go and get you some food."
After saying that, he walked away quickly, leaving Zhao Xiulan to stare at his back in a daze.
This change happened too quickly. Zhao Xiulan could not react in time.
Then, she looked at the things in her hand. Did he really want to throw them out? Did he really want to bribe her with these few bills? Forget it, forget it--
She lost her child. It was all this man's fault. It was all his fault.
However, Zhao Xiulan held the bills tightly in her hand and did not throw them out for a long time.
What she held in her hand was not just the money. This was her housekeeper's authority. In other words, from this moment on, Wei Bin had handed over the housekeeper's authority to her in order to make up for his mistake.
In the past, she had done everything she could for this housekeeper's authority. However, Wei Bin had not given it to her even though she had worked so hard. But now?
Hehe, hehe--
Zhao Xiulan laughed self-deprecatingly. As she laughed, her face became even more ferocious and terrifying.
