They say tormenting scumbags is fun for a while, but it leads to a funeral pyre afterwards. As stumbling blocks on the paths of others' lives, cannon fodder always finds themselves sinking unco...
"I...I...I..." Cheng Momo, who had just made the move, was also surprised. He looked down at his right hand, which was still trembling slightly, and panicked. Before he could react, the man's large, fan-like hand arrived, whistling through the air, and kissed his cheek hard.
With the force of inertia, Cheng Momo's body immediately fell to the ground, crashing heavily.
"It's bleeding..." Qin Feifei, with her sharp eyes, spotted the bloodstains under Cheng Momo's skirt. She covered her mouth in surprise, her eyes wide. The situation was clearly spiraling out of control, and Qin Feifei panicked as well.
"Call 120 quickly..." Yan Rui spoke up at the right moment, and Qin Feifei immediately snapped back to reality and dialed the number. The two of them were extremely busy.
"It hurts so much..." Cheng Momo clutched her abdomen with both hands, curled up in a ball, and the pain swept through her body, causing her to cry out involuntarily. She could clearly feel something slowly sliding out of her body—it was her child.
"Save my child..." Cheng Momo reached out and grabbed Yan Rui's shirt, leaving mottled bloodstains on it, like red plum blossoms blooming in winter. A strong light burst forth in Cheng Momo's eyes, her voice weak.
He himself didn't know how to face the child, but protecting him had become his instinct.
More and more bloodstains appeared on the ground, pooling together. The pink and white skirt was stained red with blood, and a pungent smell of blood filled the air. Fang Yuanyi was terrified by the scene and stood frozen in place.
"Fang Yuanyi, you really are something, hitting a woman like that. Get out of here—" Qin Feifei was furious at the sight of Fang Yuanyi; he was no help at all and only made things worse.
Although she despised Cheng Momo's character, Qin Feifei didn't want her to die. Such heavy bleeding suggested a serious problem; the baby in her womb might be lost.
Thinking of this, Qin Feifei's eyes were filled with disappointment and disgust as she looked at Fang Yuanyi. She truly despised such a man and would never entrust her life to him. Back home, she had to annul the engagement between their families. Such a heartless man, capable of even killing his own child, was akin to seeking a tiger's skin by marrying him; it might even cost her and her family their lives.
"I...I didn't do it on purpose. He fell down by accident. What does it have to do with me? Don't slander me!" Fang Yuanyi stammered for a moment, then quickly came up with a solution, swiftly shifting the blame.
"You... even at this point, you still dare to argue. Fang Yuanyi, I despise you." Qin Feifei was furious. Every time she thought the other party was shameless, he could be even more shameless, constantly shattering her worldview.
"Alright, stop arguing. The ambulance is almost here. Let's get him to the ambulance quickly. Saving his life is the most important thing." Yan Rui saw that the two were about to fight on the spot and had to speak up to stop them. What kind of time is this to be arguing? Really.
As her consciousness gradually became hazy and indistinct, Cheng Momo's world turned upside down. The sounds of a man and woman arguing clearly reached her ears, yet they seemed to come from another world, distant and lingering.
Cheng Momo felt like she was about to die; her body was ice-cold, and her heart turned cold as well. This was the man she loved with all her heart. After the incident, he shifted the blame onto others, murdered their own flesh and blood, and refused to repent.
Although their relationship was unequal from the beginning, even bordering on a distorted sugar daddy/sugar baby dynamic, Cheng Momo still felt she loved Fang Yuanyi. Her feelings over the past two years were genuine; she loved the luxurious, glamorous life he provided, the attention he garnered, his talent and abilities, and his domineering personality.
So when he discovered he was pregnant, he chose to leave, knowing the other woman wouldn't let him keep the child, and he wanted to leave himself with something to remember her by. He even clung to a sliver of hope that when they met again, they would recall the good times, and Fang Yuanyi would return to his side.
But now... the child is gone, and she might die from massive bleeding; she has nothing left. Yet, she still can't control herself.
The woman, covered in blood, on the snow-white stretcher gradually lost consciousness. Her head tilted to the side, and she sank into deep darkness. A single, glistening tear unconsciously rolled down her cheek.
The operating room lights came on, and Yan Rui stood in the corridor, his crisp suit stained with blood, his eyes lowered, his emotions a complex mix. He truly hadn't expected that after so many years, the once spoiled and willful girl would have fallen to such a state, as if she had fallen from an angel to the mortal world, stained with the dust of the world, even blood.
Perhaps that's just how life is; it always unfolds in directions that others can't imagine.
"Mr. Yan, this matter has nothing to do with you. You should go back and change your clothes and rest. We're here for you!" Qin Feifei also looked a bit disheveled, but she was much better off than Yan Rui. Seeing Yan Rui's disheveled appearance, she couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
He never expected that his decision would involve Yan Rui and cause things to escalate like this.
Fang Yuanyi rested his hands on his knees, his eyes lowered, and remained silent, exuding a melancholy aura. His mind raced as he considered how to resolve the situation. Judging from Qin Feifei's behavior earlier, it was impossible for her to agree to a marriage alliance with him.
"I..." Yan Rui opened his mouth, but was interrupted by a sound before he could speak.
"Xiao Rui, what happened to you? Hurry up and go home to clean up." Wu You, dressed in a white coat, stood at the end of the corridor, frowning as she looked at her son, her tone worried and reproachful.
"Mom, I'm fine. Please do your best to save Cheng Momo's life, that would be a good deed."
"Don't worry!" Wuyou patted her son's shoulder, understanding her complicated feelings.
Although Cheng Momo had impure thoughts and harbored ulterior motives, Yan Rui did not let her gain any advantage. Moreover, there was no deep hatred between the two, so there was no need for Yan Rui to wish for the other's death.
Wuyou put on surgical gloves, paused as she walked past Fang Yuanyi, and went inside without saying a word.
After this ordeal, Fang Yuanyi's path will likely become even more difficult. At the very least, he can forget about having Qin Feifei as his fiancée. Without the Qin family's support and now disliked by Old Master Fang, his future will be fraught with challenges. A glint flashed in her eyes, and Wuyou's lips curled into a slight smile; she had come up with an even better idea.
Three hours later, the operating room lights finally went out, and Wuyou, covered in sweat, was helped out. After all, she was not young, and performing surgery still required some effort.
"Auntie, are you alright?" Qin Feifei stepped forward to take over from the nurse, her eyes filled with worry as she looked at Wuyou.
"It's alright, Cheng Momo is doing well, and the baby is safe. She just needs to rest and recover, and can't afford any further shocks. Feifei, do you know what to do?"
Wuyou patted Qin Feifei's hand to comfort her. This girl was very good at dealing with people, and the two had some friendship. He didn't want her to end up like she did in her previous life.
