Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: Pain Piercing to the Bone

After a bout of violent vomiting, Sheng Xiangsi felt as though she had vomited out her intestines.

Feeling extremely unwell, Sheng Xiangsi went to the hospital.

"Doctor, what's wrong with me?"

After the examination, Sheng Xiangsi waited for the doctor to review the test results.

The doctor didn't answer immediately but instead asked, "Are you married?"

"?" Sheng Xiangsi was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, "Yes, I am married."

"Congratulations," the doctor said. "You are pregnant."

"?" Sheng Xiangsi was stunned again, her almond eyes wide with disbelief.

Lately, the weather had been very hot, and she hadn't had much appetite for several days. Occasionally, she felt nauseous…

She had originally thought it was just the summer heat or a common stomach flu.

Could it really be morning sickness?

If it had been before last night, she would have been very happy, but now...

Sheng Xiangsi couldn't believe it. Hesitantly, she asked the doctor, "Could there be a mistake? Isn't it possible to misdiagnose this kind of thing?"

"When did you last have your period?"

Sheng Xiangsi thought for a moment, her face turning even paler. "It's already… a week late."

"Then that's it," the doctor said, spreading their hands and placing the test results in front of her. "See for yourself. A blood test doesn't lie. You are definitely pregnant."

Sheng Xiangsi looked at the report, the black and white words, and the red stamp that confirmed it—early pregnancy.

Suddenly, she closed her eyes.

Taking the report, she said, "Thank you, doctor."

Leaving the hospital, the scorching sun pricked her eyelids, making her eyes water.

Sheng Xiangsi closed her eyes and murmured, "What should I do?"

She had been married to Fu Hanjiang for less than two months. In that time, they hadn't been intimate many times, and even when they were, it was always rushed.

She had previously thought that Fu Hanjiang was not interested in such matters. Actually, she didn't enjoy it much either because it was always very painful for her…

Now, she realized.

It wasn't that he disliked sex; he disliked her!

Those few times were probably only out of obligation to his grandmother, reluctantly fulfilling his duty.

But now, she was pregnant, and at such a time!

What should she do?

Should she keep this child?

Sheng Xiangsi was only 20 years old, still too young to make such a significant decision on her own.

After much thought, she decided she needed to talk to Fu Hanjiang.

After all, he was the father of the child.

At this moment, Fu Hanjiang was at the hospital. Yao Leyi was still there, recovering after her miscarriage.

To take care of her, he had brought his work to the hospital room.

When Sheng Xiangsi arrived, she was stopped at the door.

It was Fu Hanjiang's bodyguards, Liang Cheng and Liang Shi. "Madam, please stay here. You cannot go in."

"Why?" Sheng Xiangsi asked, blinking in confusion.

"It's Mr. Fu's orders."

Fu Hanjiang's orders?

Was he afraid she would harm Yao Leyi, or that seeing her would upset Yao Leyi?

Sheng Xiangsi lowered her head, feeling both desolate and stubborn.

Clenching her fists, she pleaded, "I won't go in. Please just tell him I need to see him. It's very important."

The two brothers exchanged glances. "Okay, we will."

Liang Shi went inside to relay the message to Fu Hanjiang.

"I don't want to see her," Fu Hanjiang said coldly, not even looking up from his work. "Tell her to stay away from the room! Don't disturb Leyi's rest!"

"Yes, sir."

Liang Shi returned and conveyed the message to Sheng Xiangsi.

After hearing it, Sheng Xiangsi's face turned completely pale. Her clenched hands trembled uncontrollably.

"Madam, please leave now. Miss Yao could wake up at any time. If she sees you, it won't be good."

"I'll leave now."

Sheng Xiangsi bit her lower lip so hard it started to bleed, but she didn't even notice.

As she walked out of the surgical building, she stopped.

No, she couldn't leave!

Tomorrow, she would be on a plane, being sent abroad! Once she was abroad, unfamiliar with everything, she wouldn't know what to do!

So, she stood at the entrance, waiting for Fu Hanjiang, knowing she would eventually see him leave.

Time passed, her legs growing numb. The sky darkened, and it began to rain heavily.

Just when Sheng Xiangsi thought Fu Hanjiang might stay the night at the hospital, he finally came out!

The light fell gently on the man, highlighting his handsome face, graceful and noble.

"Hanjiang!"

Sheng Xiangsi ran towards him.

Fu Hanjiang frowned. "Stop her!"

"Yes, sir!"

Halfway there, Sheng Xiangsi was stopped, unable to get close to him.

She anxiously shouted, "Hanjiang, I have something very important to tell you!"

But Fu Hanjiang didn't even glance at her.

The driver had already pulled up, and Fu Hanjiang got into the car.

Sheng Xiangsi couldn't believe it and shouted, "Fu Hanjiang! I'm begging you! I really need to talk to you!"

But he ignored her, closing the car door and instructing the driver, "Drive."

The car began to move, and Sheng Xiangsi's almond eyes widened as she watched it drive away.

"Fu Hanjiang!"

At that moment, Sheng Xiangsi found a burst of strength and pushed past Liang Cheng, chasing after the car.

"Hanjiang! Fu Hanjiang! Stop! I'm begging you, stop! Please…"

She ran, shouting and crying.

Running so fast, the air rushed into her lungs like needles stabbing her!

But the car drove further away, and finally, as she reached the gate, she slipped and fell to the ground.

"Ah…"

Sheng Xiangsi cried out in pain.

In the car, Liang Shi glanced back and whispered, "Sir, Madam fell."

Really?

Fu Hanjiang glanced in the rearview mirror, seeing Sheng Xiangsi sprawled on the ground, soaked to the bone, and frowned.

But only for a moment. He hardened his heart. "She just fell. She's not made of paper. What could happen? Drive faster! I don't want her to catch up and make more trouble!"

"Yes, sir."

The car sped up, and Sheng Xiangsi watched, the light in her eyes fading.

She reached out, struggling to get up. Her delicate arms and palms were scraped and bleeding, mixing with the rainwater.

At this moment, the intense pain pierced her to the bone!

Sheng Xiangsi closed her eyes, tears falling like the torrential rain…

Back at Silver Beach, Sheng Xiangsi was exhausted, both body and soul. She collapsed onto the sofa in her wet clothes.

What path was left for her to take?

Who could help her?

Suddenly, Sheng Xiangsi remembered something and took out her phone. She didn't look through her contacts but dialed a number she knew by heart.

After dialing, she hit the call button.

The ringing started, and Sheng Xiangsi held her breath, hoping.

"Hello?"

A woman's voice came from the other end.

Instantly, the light in Sheng Xiangsi's eyes went out.

"Hello, who is this? Say something!"

The woman repeatedly asked, "If you don't talk, I'm hanging up."

The next second, the call ended.

Sheng Xiangsi gripped her phone tightly, biting her lip, tears streaming down uncontrollably—it was foolish of her to make that call!

She threw her phone away, burying her head in the cushion.

The whole night was a blur.

She didn't know when she fell asleep, but when she woke, her head was splitting, and the doorbell was ringing incessantly, each ring more piercing than the last.

Perhaps tired of waiting, the door opened on its own.

Fu Hanjiang, with a grim and handsome face, stepped inside.
