He clung tightly to Li Hun's leg, pleading, wanting to save his child.
"You handled such a small matter yourself, so dear uncle, can you tell me, is this the result of your handling?"
Li Hun kicked Zhao's father away without showing any mercy, but the next second, Zhao's father grabbed her leg.
“Li Hun, I’m begging you, please forgive me for the good I’ve done for you in the past. Can you bear to see your uncle and aunt grow old alone? Zhao Fangfang didn’t come, and your aunt is carrying our only child.”
"Li Hun, your uncle knows he's wronged you, but he really knows he was wrong. Please forgive him this time, okay? The child will still call you 'brother' after it's born."
To keep his child, Zhao's father abandoned all dignity, even considering that Li Hun was his junior and he was Li Hun's elder.
He scrambled to his feet and knelt before Li Hun.
"Li Hun, your uncle is so sorry. Please forgive your uncle. Your uncle will kowtow to you."
After saying this, Zhao's father kowtowed several times on the ground.
After thinking for a moment, Zhao's mother, protecting her belly, also knelt on the ground, her voice filled with sorrow.
"Li Hun, your aunt is begging you, this child is something your uncle and aunt have longed for for countless years, please have mercy and let your brother go!"
They're truly a couple; they speak almost identically and both like to kowtow.
Fear outweighs affection; Zhao's father is now filled with deep fear of Li Hun.
"younger brother!"
With a light scoff, Li Hun didn't even glance at the two of them.
"My aunt and uncle were so sure."
The amusement in their eyes made Zhao's parents hesitant to investigate further. They glanced up, then quickly lowered their heads, remaining kneeling without getting up.
Li Hun understood their intentions; they simply wanted to use a self-inflicted injury to beg him.
With a cold laugh, Li Hun quickly left.
He will not let anyone who interferes with his plans or hinders his future get away with it. He had just made a big step forward, but now he has been brought back to square one.
Or rather, it's a regression from where it was before. All of this was caused by Zhao's father's concealment, and he must pay the price for what he caused.
As for the child, hah, it never existed. It was just a little trick he conjured up at will.
If the plan succeeds, he wouldn't mind if Zhao's father and mother actually got pregnant.
But now that the plan has failed, even without him getting his hands dirty, the children they want will not exist.
Without lifting a finger, Li Hun left, putting Zhao's parents' minds at ease.
Li Hun let them go, he just let them go.
The fact that they agreed so easily left Zhao's parents with a feeling of being in a dream.
"Master, Li Hun, please spare us! Is our child safe?"
Touching her belly, Zhao's mother felt a lingering fear. If it were before, they wouldn't have been afraid of Li Hun at all.
But now, Li Hun gives them a very strange feeling; they want to curry favor with him, but they are also filled with apprehension.
"Maybe... I'll go talk to my eldest sister tonight. She won't just watch our Zhao family line die out. After all, she's a member of the Zhao family."
Li Hun was too strange; Zhao's father simply didn't have the courage to confront him directly and could only take a roundabout route.
They tried to persuade Li Hun, saying that Zhao Fangfang was already gone, and they couldn't let the child go with her.
Even if one Zhao Fangfang doesn't come, there are still thousands of Zhao Fangfangs. If one plan fails, there can be another, and another after that, but there can only be one child.
After thinking about it, Zhao's mother also thought it was feasible; Li's mother was probably on their side.
The next second, a sharp pain shot through her abdomen, and Zhao's mother looked up at Zhao's father in a panic.
"Honey...my stomach hurts so much, baby, baby..."
Even without Zhao's mother saying anything, Zhao's father could tell from her pale face.
With the child in front of him, nothing else mattered, not even Li Hun or Li Mu; Zhao's father also panicked.
"Wife...wife, hang in there, I'll take you to a doctor, I'll take you to a doctor, the doctor will definitely save our baby."
Many people witnessed Zhao's mother's cries and Zhao's father's frantic rush to take her to the hospital.
He sighed deeply, thinking, "This is karma."
If Zhao's parents had treated Zhao Fangfang better before, and hadn't constantly beaten and scolded her, Zhao Fangfang wouldn't have taken her own life.
As for the child, they believed that Zhao Fangfang came back and took him away; otherwise, what a coincidence!
No sooner had Zhao Fangfang left than problems arose in the womb of Zhao's mother.
In this life, we should do more good deeds.
When they arrived at the hospital, Zhao's mother had already fainted. After an anxious wait, the doctor finally came out.
"Please accept my condolences, the child is gone."
The baby couldn't be saved. Mr. Zhao staggered to a stool, and it took him a while to make out the scene before him.
People came and went; some laughed, some cried, and some, like him, were numb.
He staggered to Zhao's mother's bedside, his eyes filled with hatred.
Why, why is Li Hun so heartless? They clearly know they're wrong.
Li Hunming knew how much they longed for the child, so why did he still want to get rid of it? Was the child less important than the plan?
In a daze, Zhao's father remembered a young face—it was Zhao Fangfang's.
It's like I understand something, but it's also like I've fallen into an abyss.
"The head of the household, the child."
The pain nearly consumed Zhao's mother, but her hope for her child sustained her.
Seeing Zhao's mother's expression, Zhao's father turned his head away in embarrassment. His silence made Zhao's mother realize something was amiss.
Tears streamed down her cheeks, and her eyes lost their light.
