Chapter 16 Both of them are in pain
"You're pregnant, Ah Yun. You're carrying our child."
His gaze was filled with tenderness as he looked at her, as if the whole world had shrunk to just the two of them. He gently stroked her slightly protruding belly, feeling the miracle of life growing within her.
"Don't touch me!" she screamed hysterically at him, her voice filled with anger and despair. The news was like a bolt from the blue, a devastating blow that plunged her into endless anguish.
An indescribable sadness filled her eyes, tears welling up as if they might spill over at any moment. Her body trembled slightly, as if she had lost all her strength.
At that moment, time seemed to freeze, and the whole world became utterly silent. Only her broken heart continued to bleed...
She hated him, a hatred that felt like pressing on thorns, her eyes filled with a dark, hateful light.
The male protagonist's gaze was fixed on her. He slowly squatted down to meet her gaze, his eyes revealing deep concern. His voice was low and hoarse: "A-Yun, if you have something to say, say it slowly. Don't get angry, okay?"
Her slightly trembling lips finally opened slowly.
However, the voice that came from her lips was choked with sobs: "Fu Shiyue, go... I really don't want to see you again..." After learning the truth behind the events, Xie Shiyun was filled with endless pain and regret. She couldn't forgive him for everything he had done to her, nor could she forgive herself for falling in love with such a person. And what made her even more desperate was...
She was pregnant with the child of the person she hated most! Why? Why was fate so cruel to her?
Every word was like a sharp sword, piercing her heart deeply. Tears welled in her eyes, but she stubbornly held them back. Her eyes revealed despair and sorrow, as if the whole world had collapsed. Fu Shiyue silently watched her, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. He knew he had completely broken her heart, and at this moment, he didn't know how to face the woman he had hurt so deeply.
In the silence, time seemed to stand still. Finally, Fu Shiyue turned and left, leaving Xie Shiyun alone. Watching his departing figure, the pain in her heart intensified. She couldn't understand why love had turned into such a tragedy, why things had come to this...
Just as Fu Shiyue was about to step out of the ward, he suddenly stopped and turned around. His low, hoarse voice carried a hint of morbid madness: "I will never let you leave me, no matter what."
Then he continued, "I will spend my whole life making up for the hurt and pain you have suffered. I have hired a nanny to take care of you. Give me some time, and soon I will come to pick you up and take you home myself."
After saying this, Fu Shiyue slowly walked out of the room and closed the door behind him. However, the moment the door closed, he spoke again, adding, "Remember, you must keep a close watch on Miss these next few days. If she shows any unusual behavior or encounters any unexpected situation, you must report to me immediately!"
The two men beside him, dressed in black suits and sunglasses, nodded slightly in respect before silently turning and leaving. Their steps were steady and firm, as if they were already accustomed to their master's commands. However, for the protagonist, this was merely a minor incident.
At this moment, a fire of anger burned within him—but he had something far more important to deal with: finding his so-called "good younger brother" and settling a score!
The thought swirled in his mind like a venomous snake, gradually sharpening his gaze and making it more resolute, as if he wanted to cleave the world in two. He knew this struggle with himself would be incredibly difficult, but he was not afraid. However, what he never expected was that he would do something so utterly foolish—to harm the person he loved most!
The man's gloomy face remained unpleasant, and he exuded a strong aura of hostility.
Xie Shiyun was left alone in the ward. She sat up, her movements slow and gentle, as if afraid of waking something. She leaned quietly against the pillows, wearing a loose hospital gown. Her face, which should have appeared somewhat pale, was instead made more pitiful by her beautiful features, but even so, it couldn't hide the lack of color in her skin. Sunlight streamed through the window and fell upon her.
It was as if a faint glow had been cast over her. However, this glow did not make her look more vibrant; instead, it made her appear even more fragile and helpless.
Her hands trembled slightly as she gently placed them on her stomach, her eyes filled with an indescribable, complex emotion. She murmured softly, "My child, do you know? You shouldn't have come into this world, and I..."
Just as she was lost in thought and daydreaming, the door was suddenly pushed open gently, and a figure walked in.
The woman who entered was a middle-aged woman, who looked to be around forty or fifty years old.
With a smile on her face, she walked steadily to her and said in a gentle voice, "Hello, Miss! I am the caregiver specially hired by Mr. Fu to take care of your daily life. I hope that in the days to come, I can provide you with the best care and attention." After saying that, the woman gave her a kind and friendly smile, which made her feel exceptionally warm.
But none of this made her feel comfortable or at ease; on the contrary, she was filled with unease and helplessness. At this moment, she found herself unable to escape, as if imprisoned by an invisible force. She felt as if she were trapped in a cage, having lost her freedom.
Just then, the aunt beside her said softly, "Miss, you are too thin. You must eat more. Your baby needs enough nutrition too. Please wait a moment, I will go and prepare some delicious food for you."
After saying that, the aunt turned and left, leaving Xie Shiyun alone in silence.
She got out of bed and opened the door, only to find two men in black standing there, blocking her way.
"Miss, I'm sorry, but you cannot leave without Mr. Fu's orders," they said in a mechanical voice.
Xie Shiyun felt a pang of sorrow; she had never imagined that she would lose even her freedom.
She returned to her hospital bed, lay down, and closed her eyes, pretending to sleep.
She didn't know how much time had passed when she heard the door open, assuming it was her aunt bringing food.
"Why is it you? What are you doing here?" Xie Shiyun opened her eyes and saw that the person who came was Fu Shiyue, her face full of disgust.
Fu Shiyue walked to the bedside without saying a word and sat down, gently stroking Xie Shiyun's face with his hand, his eyes filled with guilt and heartache.
"What exactly do you want?" Xie Shiyun turned her head away, avoiding his hand.
"Ah Yun, I'm sorry, it's all my fault for making you suffer so much. But please believe me, I will definitely make everything back to normal." Fu Shiyue's voice carried a hint of pleading.
Xie Shiyun sneered: "Restored to the way things were? Can we ever go back to the way things were?"
Fu Shiyue's eyes hardened: "I will prove it to you with my actions."
After saying that, he stood up and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute," Xie Shiyun called out to him.
Fu Shiyue turned around, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes.
"What kind of person are you to confine me here?" Xie Shiyun's tone was filled with anger.
Fu Shiyue sighed: "I just want to protect you and the child. It's not safe outside right now. I'll take you home after some time."
He half-squatted down and said gently, "I didn't intend to confine you, I just want you to be well..."
A resounding slap landed on his face, without the slightest hesitation, crisp and filled with anger.
That slap shattered her love for him; all her affection vanished with it.
"Get out of here!"
She doesn't want to see him at all right now, not even a little bit!
Fu Shiyue knew she didn't want to see him, and tactfully left. He clenched his teeth, enduring the physical pain, but his heart was filled with worry and anguish for her. Her pain was like a sharp sword, deeply piercing his heart.
She was in pain, but he was in even more pain...
Ah Yun, do you know?
Under the stark white lights of the hospital, the corridor seemed exceptionally desolate and quiet. He stood there, his left hand clenched into a fist, his right hand weakly supporting himself against the cold, hard wall. His head hung low, his eyes fixed on the ground, each breath heavy with weariness.
Finally, he could no longer bear it, and a mouthful of blood gushed from his mouth! The blood was so vividly red, it seemed to dye the entire world crimson! His eyes turned incredibly fierce, filled with boundless killing intent and rage. He stretched out his finger and forcefully wiped the blood from his lips, making the shocking red even more conspicuous.
He clenched his teeth tightly, which made a grinding sound from the excessive force. His body trembled slightly, as if he were fighting against some unseen force. Each breath was a heavy gasp, as if his lungs were about to explode.
The night was pitch black, as if an endless expanse of thick ink had been painted across the sky, without even the faintest glimmer of starlight.
Just then, Fu Shiyue's phone, which was on the table, suddenly rang. He quickly picked it up and pressed the answer button: "What is it?"
A deep, anxious voice came from the other end of the phone: "Sir, something terrible has happened! Miss...she's gone missing! We've searched the entire hospital but haven't found her!" the man in black said nervously.
Fu Shiyue's brows furrowed instantly, a sense of unease rising within him. He asked, "Where was the last place you saw Miss? Are there any clues?"
“The young lady said she needed to use the restroom urgently, and her aunt accompanied her. When we went to look for her, we only found her aunt lying in the restroom. The young lady must have knocked her unconscious. She seemed to be on the phone with someone, but we don’t know the details. After that, we found she was gone, and her phone was left in the restroom,” the man in black replied.
Fu Shiyue pondered for a moment, his mind racing through various possible scenarios. He immediately set off, telling the man in black, "Arrange for a search immediately! I'll head over right away."
After saying that, he hung up the phone, got up, and left in a hurry.
