Chapter 260 Decided to Escape
Shen Zhichu was silent for a long while, tears streaming down his face unconsciously, "Why do you treat me like this?"
"I don't want to do this, but I have to do it to keep you."
Shen Zhichu knew that he was cruel and wanted to abort the baby in her belly. Her emotions fluctuated so quickly that her face became worse and worse.
"What if I stay with you obediently?" she asked him hoarsely, "Can you keep this child?"
Li Jingshen shook his head and silently said no.
This is her child, a life in her belly, and her hope. Shen Zhichu doesn't understand why Li Jingshen would rather adopt a child from an orphanage than the baby she gave birth to. Does he dislike her because she is dirty?
Shen Zhichu glanced at the corridor outside and the window of the ward. Li Jingshen immediately understood what she was thinking when he saw her actions.
"This is the twelfth floor. You can't escape. I'll have someone watch you until you abort the baby."
It was ridiculous that such heartless words came from the mouth of the man who once said he loved her as much as his life.
It's not just Li Jingshen who is ridiculous, but also herself. She is so self-righteous that she thinks she holds such a great weight in Li Jingshen's heart, but she is just a feather that will disappear with the wind.
"Okay, I'll abort the baby."
A flash of surprise crossed Li Jingshen's eyes. He didn't expect Shen Zhichu to agree so quickly. He thought she would love their child very much and would be reluctant to let go.
He even thought about how to tie up Shen Zhichu and inject anesthesia to induce abortion.
For a moment, my heart felt like a seasoning plate had been broken into pieces, with all kinds of sour, sweet, bitter and spicy flavors mixed together, making it bitter to the root of my tongue.
"It's good that you figured it out."
Figured it out? Shen Zhichu scoffed inwardly, but his expression remained calm: "But I request to postpone the surgery. I'm not feeling well right now, and surgery is too dangerous."
"How long will it be extended to?"
"A week later." Seeing the worry in Li Jingshen's eyes, Shen Zhichu didn't think he was worried about her health. On the contrary, he was afraid that she would regret it and not be able to have an abortion.
"Don't worry, I will sign the surgical agreement that the doctor sends me tomorrow morning."
Her calm tone was like a knife stabbing into his heart. He felt pain, but he also knew that it was all his own fault. He didn't even have the right to cry out in pain.
Shen Zhichu said, "You're right. This child shouldn't have been born. Giving birth to him won't benefit us, and it would be irresponsible for him. He won't get his father's love, and I can't protect him with my amnesia and crippled hands."
What does it mean to not have fatherly love?
Li Jingshen didn't dare to ask more questions.
Shen Zhichu pretended he didn't exist. After muttering to himself for a few words, he pulled the quilt over his head and curled up on the bed with his arms around his chest. He looked like a baby or a hedgehog, sleeping in an insecure position.
After lying down, Shen Zhichu couldn't fall asleep at all. She touched her belly and said, "Don't worry, mom won't let you die."
The four-week-old child couldn't respond to her or even move.
At dawn, the doctor brought the surgical agreement. Shen Zhichu glanced at the surgery time, which was exactly one week. She had a week to prepare to escape from this place.
Li Jingshen stood aside, watching Shen Zhichu sign the name without hesitation, and for some reason his heart grew heavier.
"I want to go back to the villa to rest. I don't like being in the hospital."
Shen Zhichu hated being hospitalized, whether before or after losing her memory. She didn't like seeing the world all white when she opened her eyes, nor did she want to breathe the smell of disinfectant.
For her, the hospital was a place of life and death, and even every corner was filled with depression.
Li Jingshen did not agree immediately, obviously having some concerns.
Shen Zhichu lifted his long hair and sneered, "I'm just a mentally ill patient with amnesia. I'm unfamiliar with J City. Do you think I can escape your eyes?"
Li Jingshen's eyes narrowed fiercely: "I'll take you back."
…………
That afternoon, Li Jingshen took Shen Zhichu out of the hospital and back to the villa.
Shen Zhichu's attitude was cold, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Li Jingshen was no longer as gentle as before, and he didn't even bother to pretend.
Her whole body was filled with the message "Don't come near me, stay away from me", making it impossible for Li Jingshen to get close to her.
"I don't want to see you recently." Shen Zhichu said directly.
"I'm a patient and I have to undergo surgery in a week. I don't know if the surgery is risky. All I can do is try my best to maintain my composure and avoid increasing the risk. You don't want anything to happen to me during the surgery, do you?"
"So when can we meet?"
"If possible, I hope we won't meet again in our lifetime. Li Jingshen, I've already begun to dislike you. I don't want to turn all my love for you into hatred, so please don't come back this week and don't let me see you."
Li Jingshen was so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe, but this was the best outcome for him. Who made him deceive her?
"Okay, see you on the day of the surgery." Li Jingshen turned and left. He walked slowly, wanting to wait for Shen Zhichu to say goodbye, but he didn't get a goodbye until he went downstairs and got in the car.
He slid down the car window and looked into the bedroom on the second floor, where the curtains were drawn tightly.
Li Jingshen felt bitter in his heart. He could only endure it slowly and finally accept the result. Self-consolation was no longer of any use.
He gave up all these just to keep Shen Zhichu by his side. Since he had chosen this path, there was no room for regret.
Li Jingshen had not thought that Shen Zhichu would leave during this period. After all, there were servants watching her at home, and surveillance cameras were installed inside and outside the villa.
And the most important point is as Shen Zhichu herself said, her hands are disabled, she has lost her memory, and she knows nothing about J City. Where can she go?
………
Chen Zhichu stood in a daze behind the curtains. The curtains had a layer of patterned gauze. One could see outside from inside, but no one outside could see inside.
She just looked at the car outside the window. The distance was too far, and Li Jingshen had already got in the car, so she couldn't see his figure, but she could vaguely feel that he was leaning against the car window and looking at this side.
After an unknown amount of time, Li Jingshen stepped on the accelerator and slowly turned the car around and drove out.
"Goodbye, Li Jingshen." The word goodbye should have meant that they would meet again, but when she said it now, it was not for that moment.
Shen Zhichu suddenly opened the curtains and watched the car drive farther and farther away. The light in her eyes gradually dimmed until there was no trace of the car. She was still staring outside.
Shen Zhichu leaned against the wall and vomited awkwardly, tasting a salty and bitter taste in her mouth. She truly loved Li Jingshen and was determined to leave him.
She couldn't just sit there and wait for him to abort her child and then trap her in this cage like a bird, never to see the light of day.
She had lost her memory for nearly three months, and it was enough to be in a daze for so long.
