Chapter 290: Chapter 290: Why Can She Give Birth and I Can’t?
Huo Tingdong said, “Qiqi, I know what you’re worried about. Do you think I’m the kind of person who’s indecisive?”
Lin Qi replied, “No. I don’t think you’re indecisive. I’m just worried that since she and you were childhood sweethearts and grew up together, you might go easy on her.”
She could even imagine, even if Huo Tingdong really had the heart to force Song Shuyan to abort the baby, if Song Shuyan knelt before him, crying and begging, looking pitiful, he might soften because of her tears, moved by compassion.
Huo Tingdong is very fond of Han, which is why Song Shuyan must feel that as long as it’s his flesh and blood, he would be as fond of her child as he is of Han.
She would definitely grit her teeth and insist on giving birth to the child!
Huo Tingdong said, “If the child is mine, I will make her abort it.”
Lin Qi asked, “What if she refuses? If she doesn’t want to, you can’t really force her, right?”
Unless he resorted to physical force, took Song Shuyan to the hospital by force, and had the doctor abort the baby against her will.
Huo Tingdong said, “If she refuses, then let her have the child.”
Lin Qi furrowed her brows, “Let her have it?”
Huo Tingdong said, “If she insists on giving birth, then let her. She’ll face the consequences herself.”
Before, he had also asked Song Shuyan about the child in her belly.
Song Shuyan denied it, saying the child was not his.
Since she said so, he would accept that the child wasn’t his!
But she told Lin Qi that the child was his, which ant that she was lying to him.
It could only an that she wanted to use the child to gain sothing from him!
So, he would give her two choices and let her choose her own path and face her own consequences!
Lin Qi said, “Huo Tingdong, you handle this matter yourself. I hope you can give a satisfactory outco! But I won’t interfere with any of your decisions because I trust you!”
Huo Tingdong smiled, gently kissed her, “Mmm, I won’t let you down.”
…
New City Apartnt.
Song Shuyan returned from the convenience store, carrying two bags of daily necessities, and just as she got to the door, she was startled to see Huo Tingdong standing at the entrance.
The lights in the hallway were poorly maintained, flickering on and off.
He stood still, like an elegant statue, giving Song Shuyan quite a shock.
“Tingdong?”
Song Shuyan was surprised, “What brings you here?”
She asked verbally, but inwardly she was clear, Lin Qi must have told him everything about the hospital, and he ca to confront her face to face!
She feigned calmness and composure, smiled and said, “What’s the matter? Let’s go in and talk!”
Song Shuyan was ntally preparing her defense as she walked over to open the door.
After she entered, Song Shuyan went in first, Huo Tingdong followed closely behind and closed the door.
Song Shuyan placed the convenience bags on the coffee table, ready to make tea, but Huo Tingdong said indifferently, “No need to busy yourself, sit down first, I have sothing to ask you.”
Song Shuyan hesitantly put down the kettle and sat on the sofa.
She looked up and saw that Huo Tingdong was still standing, his tall fra looming in the cramped space, creating a suffocating atmosphere.
She felt uneasy, “Won’t you sit?”
Huo Tingdong said, “I have only a few words, and then I’ll leave.”
His eyebrows were furrowed, and his gaze suddenly fell on her slightly bulging belly, “Shuyan, I need an answer from you. Is the child in your belly mine?”
Song Shuyan was startled, lowered her head, and fell silent for a mont!
Huo Tingdong said, “This question is not difficult to answer. Yes or no.”
Song Shuyan said, “What does it matter if it is or isn’t? Anyway, I’m determined to give birth!”
Huo Tingdong said, “Don’t give an ambiguous answer. You’ve already said it, you’re definitely going to give birth to this child. I need you to tell , is this child really mine?”
Song Shuyan was conflicted.
Huo Tingdong’s hands were in his trouser pockets, his expression cold and impassive, making it impossible for her to guess his thoughts from his icy face.
She didn’t dare to answer his question directly!
But he seed to have anticipated her attitude already, and said coldly, “In fact, I have ways to find out the truth about the child in your belly. I know that after a certain month of pregnancy, amniocentesis can be done to determine paternity. Eventually, the truth will co out. If you refuse to tell now, are you trying to play for ti with ? You want to wait until the child in your belly is bigger and it’s too late to abort, so, you intend to drag this out!”
Song Shuyan sighed, “Tingdong, at this point, what do I have to hide from you? Lin Qi told you, didn’t she? Since that is the case, let’s lay our cards on the table! The child in my belly is yours!”
Huo Tingdong’s face turned dark instantly, “So, you were lying to before?”
Song Shuyan said, “I was scared. I feared that if you found out about this, you would force to abort!”
Huo Tingdong leaned against the wall, his eyes cold, “I see. The sperm sample from the sperm bank, was it you who stole it? Did you go abroad and secretly undergo IVF?”
Song Shuyan suddenly stood up, her face flushed, and she yelled hysterically, “She forced ! She was the one who fought with for you! When you divorced, didn’t she give birth to your child in secret without telling you? If she hadn’t given birth to twin sons for you, would you have reconsidered your feelings for her? If she can give you sons, why can’t I?! The son I’ll give birth to will only be better and more outstanding than hers! If she can have children, why can’t I?! She used her children to bind your heart, why can’t I?”
Huo Tingdong chuckled coldly, “Is that what you think?”
Song Shuyan retorted, “Is it not? Your remarriage with her, isn’t it because she gave birth to your two sons, and you wanted to be responsible for her? She took you away from with the help of those sons, why can’t I?”
She beca more agitated as she spoke, stepping closer to Huo Tingdong, clutching his arm tightly, “Tingdong! Don’t be fooled by her! This woman had it all planned out from the start! Her thods are too clever! She planned to rise to power by using your sons, to take you away, and from that point on, to be your wife, living a life of ease and wealth! Those children are rely her stepping stones!”
Huo Tingdong: “Don’t project your own thoughts onto others.”
Song Shuyan: “If that’s what you think, I can only say you don’t understand won. Won understand won! You never know what goes on in another person’s heart. Do you think she is so great, so selfless? Do you really think she loves you? You’re wrong! What she loves is the status and the benefits that co with being ‘Mrs. Huo’!”
He was originally hers, ah.
Why should Lin Qi snatch her man?
She was just giving back what she received!
