Chapter 390: Chapter 390 I Want to Na My Child “Han Bao
The two of them walked one after the other to the door of the hospital room.
Mo Ke knocked lightly on the door: “Miss Lin, are you awake?”
A weak voice ca from inside: “I’m awake…”
Mo Ke said, “Then I’ll co in.”
He turned his head to glance at Song Shuyan and added, “Oh, by the way, Miss Song heard about your miscarriage and hospitalization. She said she wanted to visit you.”
Lin Qi was silent for a mont before replying, “Co in.”
Mo Ke slowly pushed the door open.
Song Shuyan entered first.
Lin Qi was lying on the bed, covered with a thick quilt. When Song Shuyan looked at her face, she could tell her complexion wasn’t good—likely due to just having gone through an induced labor.
Song Shuyan, being a doctor, knew that after an induced labor, won were prone to chills and cold sweats. She could see that Lin Qi was shivering from the cold.
Song Shuyan said to Mo Ke, “Mo Ke, please step out—I need to have a word with her.”
Mo Ke hesitated and said, “Miss Lin has just had an induced labor. She’s in a delicate condition and needs soone here with her.”
Song Shuyan chuckled, “Did you forget? I’m a doctor too. If anything happens, I’ll take care of her!”
Lin Qi said, “Mo Ke, you can step out.”
Mo Ke nodded slightly and left the room.
The door closed.
The hospital room fell into silence.
Song Shuyan walked forward and stopped half a ter from the bed.
She didn’t dare approach Lin Qi any closer now.
A woman like Lin Qi, who had just experienced a miscarriage, was bound to be emotionally unstable. Song Shuyan, still pregnant herself and thus more “precious” than Lin Qi, kept her distance, wishing she could stay three feet away.
Lin Qi said coldly, “Why are you here?”
Song Shuyan replied, “I ca to the hospital for a check-up. By chance, I ran into Mo Ke, who ntioned your miscarriage, so I thought I’d stop by and see you.”
Lin Qi raised an eyebrow. “A check-up? What kind of check-up?”
Song Shuyan lightly placed her hand on her belly, a shy smile creeping onto her face. “Tingdong asked to co! He said if I can prove the baby in my belly is his, he’ll take responsibility for !”
Lin Qi’s heart sank with a “thud,” and her expression turned for the worse. “He… really said that?”
Seeing her expression change, Song Shuyan knew her words had hit the mark. “Yes! Didn’t he tell you, Lin Qi? He wants a divorce from you.”
As she spoke, her face carried an innocent cruelty. “Ah… I’ve told you this before. n, especially n like him! He’s not so inexperienced young college boy with romanticized dreams of love and marriage. No, when he married you, it wasn’t because of love—it was because you gave him two sons… Oh, by the way, I heard Han and Momo had so kind of accident?”
Lin Qi lowered her head.
Song Shuyan curved her lips into a smile. “He loved Han the most. What happened to Han must have been a huge blow to him! And now you’ve lost this baby too. All his hopes rest on now! Maybe, when I give birth, he’ll shift all his longing and affection for Han and Momo to our child.”
Her tone was calm and light, yet her words were like salt on an open wound.
Song Shuyan continued, “He promised … Once the amniocentesis results and DNA test confirm it, he’ll divorce you and marry , giving our child a proper na and status!”
Lin Qi lifted her head, her skin ashen and lifeless. “He really said that?”
Song Shuyan replied, “Yes! Why would I make sothing like this up? Lin Qi, why not let it end on good terms? Let’s face it, you’ve failed him. Han and Momo are gone, and now you’ve miscarried. You an nothing to him anymore; there’s no point in him pretending or pampering you. I’ve told you before, any woman can bear children. Your children and mine are the sa in his eyes.”
Lin Qi let out a pale, bitter smile. “So, you ca just to tell this nonsense?”
Song Shuyan assud her response was born of humiliation and anger. “Don’t be so tense. Do you think I ca here specifically to provoke you?”
She smiled slightly. “Lin Qi, I ca because I want your blessing for and Tingdong.”
Lin Qi froze. “Blessing?”
Song Shuyan replied, “Yes. If you really love Tingdong, wouldn’t you want him to be happy? Don’t worry; the happiness you couldn’t give him, I will.”
She lowered her head and caressed her belly. “When the baby is born, I’ll na him ‘Han.'”
Lin Qi’s expression darkened.
Song Shuyan’s words were nothing short of “killing the heart.”
Lin Qi hadn’t expected her cruelty to go this far.
Song Shuyan smiled again, then turned and left.
As soon as she walked out, Mo Ke entered the room.
Upon entering, he saw Lin Qi in low spirits and was startled. “Madam, what did she say to you?”
Mo Ke closed the door and stepped closer to the bed. “Are you alright?”
Lin Qi asked, “Is she gone?”
Mo Ke nodded. “Yes, she’s gone.”
Lin Qi said, “I feel so… sad.”
Mo Ke let out a confused “Hmm?”
Lin Qi continued, “Huo Tingdong said that as long as Song Shuyan proves the baby she’s carrying is his, he’ll take responsibility for her, divorce , and marry her.”
Mo Ke was stunned. “But… Isn’t this sothing you and Mr. Huo agreed on? Weren’t you two just pretending?”
Lin Qi said, “Yes… I know it’s all just an act, but hearing Song Shuyan say those things still makes feel so hurt.”
She couldn’t put the feeling into words.
She knew it wasn’t real. She knew…
But she still felt as though her heart had been carved out.
Evening.
Huo Tingdong arrived at the hospital.
Lin Qi had just finished her follow-up examination and was preparing to be discharged.
When he reached the hospital room door, he noticed Mo Ke’s strange expression and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Mo Ke said, “Today… Miss Song ca by.”
Huo Tingdong said, “Wasn’t that to be expected?”
Mo Ke replied, “Miss Song said a lot to Madam… She’s been in a low mood ever since, and I’ve tried comforting her with no success.”
Huo Tingdong frowned. “What happened?”
Mo Ke kept his posture reserved and silent.
Huo Tingdong pushed the door open and stepped inside.
Lin Qi sat by the bedside, staring out of the window. Even when she heard his footsteps, she didn’t react.
Gently, the man wrapped his arms around her from behind. “What’s wrong?”
Lin Qi’s nose stung. “Huo Tingdong… If sothing really happened to Han and Momo, and I really miscarried, would you really divorce ?”
Huo Tingdong: “…???”
Lin Qi turned her head. Seeing his baffled expression, she felt even more heartbroken. “Are you hesitating too? Song Shuyan said that all n are the sa, especially n like you. You married just for the children, didn’t you?”
Huo Tingdong looked at her tearful, aggrieved face and couldn’t help but chuckle. “Pfft…”
