Chapter 129 Husband, my water seems to have broken

Seeing that Zhou Jibai was serious about this, Qiu Zehang was furious: "Do you think you can get away with it by crippling me?"

Zhou Jibai narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "Leave it at the door of the Qiu family with a trace of breath."

"yes!"

Qiu Zehang was forcibly taken away. He cried out heartbreakingly, "Zhou Jibai, you're going to die a miserable death! Just wait! If I don't live well and become disabled, you'll be the next one to become disabled!"

This sentence suddenly woke Shi Huai up!

Shi Huai suddenly felt the blood in her body rushing backwards. She suddenly grabbed Zhou Jibai's hand and said, "Hubby, I want to go back."

Zhou Jibai patted Shi Huai's back, thinking she was frightened, and comforted her softly: "Okay, go back."

Even though Zhou Jibai had someone deal with Qiu Zehang, Shi Huai's feeling of uneasiness still did not dissipate.

The huge stone hanging in his heart did not let go for a long time, and Shi Huai felt that he was a little weak when walking.

Noticing Shi Huai's pale and ugly face, Zhou Jibai held Shi Huai's hand tightly: "What's wrong?"

Shi Huai raised his head and locked eyes with Zhou Jibai, who were filled with worry. "I always feel like... this matter isn't over yet."

"Um?"

Zhou Ji's eyes were filled with doubt, and he stretched out his long arm to stroke Shi Huai's head: "Are you too tired recently?"

Shi Huai shook his head.

I only heard the impatient honking of a car behind me.

Shi Huai suddenly looked back and saw a BMW speeding towards him and Zhou Jibai.

Shi Huai suddenly recalled the drunk man who met Qiu Zehang outside the glass door of the mobile phone store today!

The scene in the previous life was reversed. Although Qiu Zehang was solved by Zhou Jibai, the accident still happened! It was just that the target of drunk driving had changed!

"Zhou Jibai, run!"

No matter when, Zhou Jibai would always be one step ahead of her, anticipate all her decisions, and protect her firmly.

Zhou Jibai quickly took Shi Huai to a safe place!

The car drove towards Zhou Jibai and Shi Huai as if it was risking its life!

Zhou Jibai pushed Shi Huai away and stood in front of Shi Huai.

Shi Huai's brain was buzzing, and he ran towards Zhou Jibai almost uncontrollably.

"No! No! Zhou Jibai!"

There was a loud bang! The sound of a violent car collision cut through the gloomy sky.

The car crashed into the green belt and half of it was scrapped.

From beginning to end, Shi Huai did not dare to blink, fearing that if she closed her eyes, the past life would repeat itself and Zhou Jibai would become a cripple in front of her.

Shi Huai was so frightened that tears kept flowing out of her eyes. She stared at the scene in a daze.

He saw Zhou Jibai standing in front of him safe and sound.

Zhou Jibai breathed a sigh of relief, having escaped unscathed. Thanks to Shi Huai's words of worry and fear, as well as her sudden cry of "Run!", he had enough time and preparation to take her to a safe place.

Otherwise... the consequences will be unimaginable.

Zhou Jibai walked slowly towards Shi Huai. In order to make Shi Huai feel at ease, he took the initiative to open his arms and said to Shi Huai calmly: "I'm fine, don't cry."

Shi Huai suddenly became breathless and could not utter a word. His chest heaved up and down and his shoulders trembled violently.

Shi Huai pointed to her belly and cried out, "Hubby, my water seems to have broken."

Amniotic fluid mixed with blood flowed down Shi Huai's legs, and panic spread and enveloped Zhou Jibai's entire heart.

…

"The fetus is less than 37 weeks old and the membranes are ruptured prematurely! Go and rescue them!"

The moment Shi Huai was pushed into the operating room, Zhou Jibai felt that all the strength in his body had been drained.

At this moment, his face was terrifyingly cold, and the 1.88-meter-tall man couldn't stop trembling on the spot.

After a while, the door of the operating room was opened.

"Mr. Zhou, your wife is currently unconscious and in a coma. She can only be delivered by caesarean section."

When Zhou Jibai heard what the doctor said, his heart felt as if it was being tightly grasped by an invisible hand.

The doctor handed Zhou Jibai the surgery notice and a pen.

Zhou Jibai tried his best to control his trembling hands. The moment he picked up the pen to sign his name on the consent form, his vision suddenly blurred.

His voice was low and hoarse, and his tone was extremely serious: "No matter what happens, protect the adults first."

"yes."

Time passed minute by minute, and Zhou Jibai called his family in the middle to inform them that Shi Huai was about to give birth.

He never looked at his phone again after that, his eyes fixed on the lighted door of the operating room.

Zhou Jibai sat in a chair, his broad palms covering his entire face. For the first time in his life, he felt as if he were sitting on pins and needles, and the days were like years.

The image of Shi Huai trembling, his face pale and terrified was still vivid in his mind. Whenever he thought of this image, Zhou Jibai felt as if his heart was being stabbed by thousands of sharp knives.

He wished he was the one lying on the operating table, the one enduring the pain.

He kept praying in his heart, as long as Shi Huai and the child were safe, it didn't matter if he shortened his life.

Zhou Jibai's eyes flushed red. At this moment, the only person Shi Huai could rely on was himself. He had to remain absolutely calm.

Calm down, calm down... Damn it, how can I calm down.

Zhou Jibai hated himself so much.

It was because he failed to protect Shi Huai that she suffered. If he had noticed it earlier, Shi Huai would not have given birth prematurely.

Zhou Jibai's eyes were red, his fists were clenched so tightly that the veins on the back of his hands were bulging, and his heart was hanging in the air, not daring to relax for a moment.

Suddenly—the door of the operating room opened.

"Seven thirty-five in the evening, boy, three pounds and six ounces!"

Hearing this, Zhou Jibai's mind suddenly went blank. He looked towards the door of the operating room in a daze, only to see several doctors and nurses busily carrying a baby out.

Zhou Jibai stepped forward immediately and spoke anxiously in a somewhat cold tone: "How is my lover?"

"The mother is no longer in danger of death, but is still in a coma." After hearing the second half of the sentence, Zhou Jibai's breathing became a little heavier.

As if all the strength in his body had been drained away, Zhou Jibai forced himself to continue asking, "Where's the child?"

The doctor said solemnly, "The fetus was born prematurely, and its lung function is currently weak. It must be immediately sent to an incubator for oxygen."

Zhou Jibai's face turned even paler, and all the blood color disappeared at this moment.

…

At the beginning, the pain of contractions forced Shi Huai to stay awake for a while. After lying on the operating table, Shi Huai looked at his doctors and his body trembled violently.

She was scared.

Just because she thought of her past life...

In his previous life, he was conscious of death, lying on this cold operating table, watching the black-hearted doctor cut his child out of his abdomen, and the child was cruelly strangled to death. He felt his life slipping away bit by bit, and his blood gradually turned cold.

This feeling appeared again.

Shi Huai's tears flowed from the corners of her eyes into her ears, and she kept telling herself.

Don't be afraid.

Zhou Jibai was waiting for him at the door of the operating room.

It's fine.

This is not the previous life. In this life, she and her child will be safe and sound.

When she was about to lose all consciousness, Shi Huai suddenly thought of something. She suddenly reached out and grabbed the doctor beside her.

"Save the child."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Huai fell into a deep coma.

"The mother has fallen unconscious! Contact her family immediately!"

…

It was as if he had fallen into a deep abyss of water. Shi Huai felt his body sinking and falling. The icy cold water enveloped him, making him feel so desolate and miserable.

The infinite loneliness and darkness made her extremely anxious and uneasy. She wanted to wake up desperately, and wanted to wake up quickly to confirm whether Zhou Jibai was safe and whether their child was born safely into this world.

But no matter how she struggled, all she received in response was endless indifference and darkness. It was as if the whole world had abandoned her.

Shi Huai hates being alone.

"Zhizhi, Mom has gone to another world. Do you want to stay in Guangnan, or go with Dad?"

The familiar voice made Shi Huai's heart skip a beat. She looked back at the source of the voice. What she saw was the unforgettable scene from more than ten years ago.

At that time, I had just started elementary school and lived with my parents in an old community in Guangnan.

On an ordinary hot afternoon, during the first physical education class of the afternoon, the teacher called me away and said that my father was here to pick me up.

At first, Shi Huai was smiling because he was happy to have half a day less of classes.

Unexpectedly, what I received was the news that my mother had passed away unexpectedly.

She remembered that when her father asked her this question, they had just sent her mother to the crematorium.

Shi Huai's eyes were red, tears welling up in them: "Can you please not leave?"

Dad gently stroked Shihuai's head and said, "Dad is going to Changjing to work. Can I buy Zhizhi a doll and a beautiful dress when I come back?"

How can that be?

How can that be?

How could he leave her alone in Guangnan and let her wait for him to come back all alone during the holidays?

His mother has left him, can he bear to leave himself?

The scene changed again, and before Shi Huai had wiped the tears from her face, she found herself in Changjing, her father's new home.

There were her father and his family of three at home, and she was standing alone at the door carrying her luggage.

When Tang Xiaoling saw her, she came forward with a smile and warmly pulled her hand: "Don't be polite, Shi Huai, just treat it as your own home."

During the three years of junior high school, Tang Xiaoling kept brainwashing herself, telling her how deep her love was and how she treated her as her own daughter.

Tang Qiaoguo called her "sister" affectionately.

She really once thought that they treated her sincerely.

I didn't expect that they went to so much trouble to please me, not to become a family with me, but to push me into the abyss.

"Shi Huai, Shi Huai, as long as you die, your father's house and inheritance will belong to us, mother and daughter." Tang Xiaoling smiled wickedly, "I'll sell you to the red-light district, just enough to satisfy a slut like you."

When Shi Huai saw these two hideous faces, he wanted to go up and fight them to the death.

She was so angry that she lost her mind and stood up to pounce on the mother and daughter.

He rushed forward recklessly, but fell into a warm and broad embrace.

He wrapped his arms around her tightly, holding her in his arms as if she were the whole world.

Shi Huai stood there in a daze, and when he raised his eyes, he met Zhou Jibai's eyes.

He stood in the dim light, his amber eyes filled with some suppressed emotions.

Shi Huai saw the discomfort in his eyes and was about to ask him what was wrong.

Zhou Jibai stretched out his long arms and pushed himself back.

After a long pause, he made a solemn decision: "Shi Huai, I will set you free."

Shi Huai was a little stunned, looking at Zhou Jibai in disbelief: "What did you say, what?"

"I'm sorry for you."

"It was me who made you pregnant, tied you down in marriage, and ruined your life."

"You hate me, but I don't blame you." Zhou Jibai pulled a bitter smile from the corner of his lips, "Zhizhi, I won't be out of your sight anymore."

Suddenly, a dim beam of light fell on Zhou Jibai, who was sitting in a wheelchair, most of his lower body amputated. His long legs, which should have been strong and sturdy, were empty, and the unsupported trouser legs were blown about by the wind.

There was no trace of blood on his handsome face. He looked pale, fragile, and sickly, like a dead willow branch in spring. This dejected and cold face told Shi Huai that he was now just a body without a soul.

Drop by drop, tears slid down Shi Huai's cheeks. She sniffed and ran towards Zhou Jibai: "I won't leave, Zhou Jibai, don't leave me."

Zhou Jibai had already become disheartened, and his heart would no longer have any ripples.

He ignored Shi Huai's trembling, tearful words as if they were air, turned the wheelchair with both hands and left into the dark abyss. No matter how much Shi Huai cried behind him, he would not look back.

Shi Huai is going crazy.

She looked up at Zhou Jibai who had been swallowed by the darkness, and her emotional collapse was about to shatter her.

Zhou Jibai really doesn't want her anymore.

The whole world has abandoned her.

Just as Shi Huai collapsed to the ground in frustration, a faint baby cry suddenly rang in his ears.

It's very weak, and if you don't listen carefully you might think it's just an inadvertent noise.

Shi Huai was slightly stunned, and she subconsciously lowered her head to look at her belly.

The originally bulging belly has become flat.

She gave birth?

Or... the baby left her again?

Then, Shi Huai heard a faint and tiny cry like that of a kitten.

Shi Huai was in a trance for a moment.

I immediately felt certain in my heart.

This is her child.

It is her and Zhou Jibai's flesh and blood.

Shi Huai took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and slowly stood up from the ground.

The abyss of darkness that traps oneself comes from the fear deep in one's heart.

She stared directly at the dark moments of her past life that appeared before her eyes, scene after scene.

Shihuai, don't be afraid.

It's over.

You did a great job.

In this life, you helped the Zhou family and redeemed the regrets of your previous life.

Moreover! In this life! Zhou Jibai will never give up on himself!

Zhou Jibai will never be discouraged by Shi Huai!

Zhou Jibai will always love Shi Huai! He promised!

The memories of the past life are already a thing of the past. Don’t be afraid, please stride forward bravely.

You will no longer be alone for the rest of your life.
