Perhaps due to her pregnancy, Ye Zhao not only lacked energy but also frequently felt nauseous. She had just returned from the hospital and hadn't even had a chance to go upstairs when she squatted down next to the trash can in the living room and started vomiting.

Just then, Ye Ling came down the stairs, wiggling her hips, and saw this scene. She covered her nose and said in disgust, "If you're going to throw up, at least go somewhere else. It's disgusting!"

Ye Zhao's vision went black from vomiting, and she couldn't hear what she was saying at all. After vomiting, she hurriedly took the cup from Zhang Ma's hand, drank water, and rinsed her mouth.

After rinsing her mouth, she acted as if she hadn't seen Ye Ling and went upstairs listlessly, leaving Ye Ling standing there with a not-so-good expression, staring at Ye Zhao's back as if she were thinking about something. Zhang Ma behind her also looked thoughtful.

Ye Zhao was experiencing the pain of pregnancy for the first time. She vomited everything she ate all day and lay listlessly in bed with no energy at all.

When she felt unwell, she wished she could go to the hospital immediately to abort the baby. When she felt a little better, she felt that her thoughts were too cruel, after all, it was a little life. But when she thought of the child's father, she became even angrier.

The child clearly belongs to both of them, so why does he suffer no harm at all and not even ask a single question?

So when she was vomiting violently into the toilet again, she also made a phone call, cursing and vomiting all the while.

“Sinking... Ugh... I'll fuck you... Ugh... I'm going to die... Yue..."

When Ye Zhao finished vomiting and looked at her phone again, the call had already been disconnected. She muttered a few curses and got up to find something to eat, but as soon as she stood up, her vision blurred and she fell to the ground. In the instant she lost consciousness, she was still thankful that there was a carpet.

When Ye Zhao woke up again, she was in a hospital bed. A kind-looking auntie was sitting next to her. As soon as she saw that Ye Zhao was awake, she comforted her for a few words and then hurriedly left.

Ye Zhao came to her senses, looked around but didn't see anyone else. Just as she was about to sit up, a man in a suit and business attire suddenly walked in.

"Ms. Ye, you have low blood sugar. The doctor told you to rest more. Aunt Wang has prepared some food for you. Please eat whatever you like, or tell Aunt Wang what you would like to eat and she will make it for you."

Ye Zhao remembered that she had seen this person before; he had followed behind Shen Du when Shen Du came to see her last time.

"President Shen has an urgent meeting and can't come. He'll contact you later. I'll be outside. Just call me if you need anything."

After the man finished speaking, he nodded to her and went out. A moment later, the sound of him talking to Aunt Wang could be heard outside. Ye Zhao's stomach rumbled. She was starving before she fainted, and now she was even more anxious from hunger. Her mind was blank, and all she could think about was food.

So when Aunt Wang brought the food up, Ye Zhao performed a vicious dog pouncing on its prey, startling Aunt Wang so much that she frantically tried to stop her and tell her to eat slowly.

Ye Zhao was really hungry, and the food that Aunt Wang brought out was to her liking. She couldn't help but eat a little too much. As a result, she vomited so much that she felt like she was about to throw up her stomach.

Ye Zhao was in a terrible state. The trash can under the bed was full of vomit, her face was covered in tears and sweat, her hair was wet and stuck to her face, and her stomach was still convulsing. She didn't know if it was because of the pain or the grievances, but she suddenly burst into tears.

The sound of sobbing came from inside, and Chen Du paused, not daring to go any further.

"It's so painful... Waaah..." Ye Zhao's intermittent sobs and Aunt Wang's comforting voice came from inside. Chen Du turned around and walked to the sofa, not going into the inner room again.

"What did the doctor say?" Shen Du asked in a low voice.

Yang Xu stood aside and answered in a low voice, "The doctor said it's nothing serious, just a little low blood sugar and some severe morning sickness."

Chen Du frowned and said, "Find a few professionals to wait, and then tidy up the houses in Fanghua Lane."

Yang Xu nodded upon hearing this: "Yes."

After finishing his sentence, Shen Du pondered for a moment and then asked, "The old man still doesn't know about this?"

Yang Xu was silent for a moment, then replied, "...I probably don't know yet."

Shen Du's eyes showed doubt and confusion. Based on his understanding of Ye Zhao, shouldn't she be eager to tell the whole world about this? Why has she suddenly become so restrained? He had prepared a response for her, but he didn't expect her to make a single move, and even the old man was unaware of it.

The child came suddenly, just like his engagement to Ye Zhao; he had no preparation or plan whatsoever.

In recent years, he has been busy with company affairs and has no time to talk about marriage. He was indifferent to Ye Zhao, whom his elders had chosen for him. His grandfather's health was getting worse and he hoped that he would settle down as soon as possible. He got engaged as he wished, but he just couldn't bring himself to marry Ye Zhao, so it has been delayed until now.

Having a relationship with Ye Zhao was just a coincidence. They were both adults and engaged, so there was nothing wrong with it. It was just unexpected that something still happened.

The child came suddenly, but he wasn't a heartless person. He would take responsibility. However, he still had no intention of getting married, which is why he said those words to Ye Zhao.

He had always known Ye Zhao's feelings for him, and he knew that Ye Zhao was urging him to get married, but he just didn't have any ideas. He originally thought that she would use her pregnancy to urge him to get married, but he didn't expect that she hadn't taken any action so far.

Ye Zhao's intermittent sobs could be heard from inside the room. Shen Du frowned and asked, "Did you vomit badly?"

Yang Xu frowned and replied, "It's quite serious. He vomited up everything he ate for dinner, including bile. Aunt Wang is trying to find a way to alleviate it..."

Shen Du frowned and didn't say anything more. After waiting for a while, when it became much quieter inside, he got up and went inside.

Ye Zhao rinsed her mouth, wiped her face, and leaned against the hospital bed in a daze. Morning sickness was too agonizing. She hadn't really wanted to keep this child that had nothing to do with her in the first place, and after this ordeal, even the slightest thought of keeping the child was gone. So when she looked up and saw Chen Du come in, she said expressionlessly, "Abort it. I don't want to give birth."

Her voice was hoarse and low, perhaps because she had just been crying, and it still had a nasal tone, but her tone was serious and earnest, causing Chen Du to pause in his steps and frown, asking, "Have you thought it through?"

Ye Zhao looked at him and calmly replied, "I've thought it through."

Aunt Wang realized that something was wrong, so she took the basin of water and went out, closing the door behind her before leaving.

Upon hearing this, Shen Du stood quietly in place, seemingly lost in thought. After a moment, he looked at Ye Zhao and said, "It's up to you. I'll have Yang Xu contact a doctor. Aunt Wang will take good care of you. Contact Yang Xu if you need anything. I've been quite busy lately."

After Chen Du finished speaking, he turned and left. Ye Zhao leaned back on the pillow with a sigh of relief.
