Chapter 664: Lu Tingchuan, Where is My Child (Part 1)
Shen Qing lay in the intensive care unit for a long time, from dusk to dawn, and from day to night, a full 48 hours.
Lu Tingchuan had never seen Shen Qing lying down for so long. All her body functions were normal, and the doctor said she had passed the safe period.
Lu Tingchuan asked, "Then why hasn't she woken up yet?"
The doctor slowly explained: "She herself doesn't want to wake up."
To explain briefly, Shen Qing wove a "beautiful dream" for herself. In that dream, everything she cherished was still there, Jiang Yiming's finger was not broken, her baby was still there, her grandmother was by her side, and Su Miao lived a very happy life... She had her own little house, and did what she liked to do every day. In her dream, she lived the way she wanted, fulfilled her dream and became a great screenwriter who won numerous awards. She donated the prize money to help many women like her.
In her dream, she lived a truly happy life... so happy that she felt like she was just a bystander, watching someone else live out this perfect life for her. How wonderful it would be if all this were true...
However, the more beautiful the dream is, the more cruel the reality is. In reality, she has nothing, just like a nightmare, so Shen Qing is unwilling to wake up.
The doctor suggested that Lu Tingchuan spend more time talking to Shen Qing, pulling her out of her dream and making her face reality.
But this is undoubtedly cruel, just like a child who has waited in a long line to get candy, and when he is about to eat the candy and tears open the candy wrapper, it is snatched away by someone.
"Shen Qing." Lu Tingchuan always felt that he was the one who could control Shen Qing's life, even life and death.
But now Shen Qing was lying lifeless on the bed, and she didn't open her eyes even after he called her several times.
After the doctor turned and left, Lu Tingchuan reached out and touched Shen Qing's thin jawline. There was a bruise on her neck caused by the collar. Lu Tingchuan gently lifted a corner of the quilt and his eyes fell on her flat abdomen.
He reached out and touched it, and the slightly bulging belly completely deflated. Lu Tingchuan narrowed his eyes, and a cold light flashed in his deep brown eyes.
Whenever he thought about how Shen Qing had cheated on her for five months, he couldn't help but want to kill her.
But when his hand fell on Shen Qing's neck, he was reluctant to use force. Such a weak person, it seemed as if he could kill the person with just one force, but how could he be so brave?
"Shen Qing, wake up! If you don't, I'll burn the bastard I dug out of your stomach into ashes and feed it to you so you can taste it!"
Lu Tingchuan's scare really woke Shen Qing up.
The moment Shen Qing opened her eyes, she saw Lu Tingchuan standing in front of her. She subconsciously wanted to hide, but before her elbows could support her back, she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen. Shen Qing was stunned and raised her hand tremblingly, gently touching her abdomen. Her hand strangely stayed in mid-air for a long time before falling, and the arc there was no longer there.
Lu Tingchuan stood in front of her and chuckled, "Are you looking for your bastard?"
Lu Tingchuan's voice was like a blunt knife piercing her chest, causing her entire body to tremble violently with pain. Shen Qingse shrank back, raised her head, and looked at Lu Tingchuan with wide eyes. She asked him in a hoarse voice, "Where's the child... Where's my child..."
There was deathly silence in the ward.
After a moment, Lu Tingchuan asked, "Do you really want to see that bastard?"
Lu Tingchuan kept calling her a bastard, irritating Shen Qing's eardrums. She moved her body to lie on the edge of the bed and grabbed Lu Tingchuan's hand, pleading with a choked voice: "She is not a bastard. Lu Tingchuan, tell me... tell me where my child is? I want to see her, to see if she is still okay..."
The begging action made Lu Tingchuan feel irritated, and the desire for revenge gradually arose in his heart.
He leaned over and pinched Shen Qing's chin, staring at her pale face, and sneered with an ambiguous meaning: "Don't worry, I'll keep it for you!"
After saying that, he pinched Shen Qing's thin shoulder with one hand and pulled him off the bed.
Shen Qing, who had just finished the operation, had no strength to resist Lu Tingchuan. She was roughly dragged off the bed and her whole body fell directly to the ground like a puppet with broken strings, making a muffled sound.
Lu Tingchuan just glanced back at her coldly, then twisted her arm even harder to pull her up, dragging her into a room.
This is a closed room, which is filled with a strong smell of disinfectant. In addition to the disinfectant, there is another smell mixed in. If you smell it for a long time, it will make people feel a little dizzy.
Shen Qing suddenly became afraid of this place. She suddenly didn't want to look at her child anymore, as if as long as she didn't look at her child, her child would be fine forever.
She stepped back in fright, shaking her head subconsciously, her eyes full of panic.
Lu Tingchuan pulled her hand and said, "Why are you stepping back? Isn't that what you've always wanted to see?"
"I don't want to watch anymore... As long as I know that the baby is fine... I don't want to watch anymore, Lu Tingchuan, I beg you, I don't want to watch anymore... Please take me back... I want to go back." Shen Qing shook her head and tears fell out.
She stepped back hard, as if she could no longer feel the pain in her body. Her heart seemed to be tightly grasped by someone, causing unbearable pain.
"How can I not look at it?" Lu Tingchuan smiled grimly. He held Shen Qing's hand and went to a corner and lifted a piece of white cloth there. It was a transparent glass container with a dead fetus floating in it. It was very small, only as big as the palms of an adult's hands, and its face was wrinkled and a little blurry.
——This is a "specimen" soaked in formalin
"This is the child that was dug out of your belly."
The pungent smell directly penetrated Shen Qing's scalp. Shen Qing held his head and screamed shrilly: "No——"
Lu Tingchuan held her head tightly and controlled her chin with one hand. The more she moved back, the closer he pushed her, until his nose was almost touching the glass container.
Shen Qing wanted to close her eyes but couldn't. Her pupils contracted violently as she stared at the child floating in the container. That was her child... her Xiang Xiang.
Her eyes hurt as if they were pricked by needles, and tears rolled out from the corners of her eyes. Shen Qing shook her head. At this moment, she truly understood what it meant to be heartbroken and to have her heart torn apart. Even if the ten tortures were inflicted on her, they could not compare to the pain at this moment.
She didn't want to admit that this was her baby. How could her baby be so small? And was it being soaked in this irritating chemical water? The smell was pungent, so how painful would it be to be soaked in it? Shen Qing's eyes were blurry, and she was half crazy and half mad.
Lu Tingchuan's eyes were filled with madness. He pulled Shen Qing's hair from the back of her head and forced her to get close to the entire container so that he could see clearly inside. "Shen Qing, this is your bastard. Haven't you always wanted to see it? Then keep watching it here and repent for everything you have done!"
Confess what she had done?
What am I doing wrong?
Shen Qing covered her burning eyes like crazy. This was her child, the baby she had been pregnant for six months. She was not a bastard, she was the most obedient baby.
Tears covered her face. Lu Tingchuan let go of her hair. Shen Qing collapsed to the ground and said sadly, "Why, Lu Tingchuan, tell me what I did wrong. Why did you treat me like this?"
Lu Tingchuan looked at Shen Qing's blood-red eyes, which seemed to be about to burst into tears. His heart ached inadvertently. He gritted his teeth and asked her, "You are pregnant with a bastard for five months, and you still ask me what you did wrong?"
"A five-month-old bastard..." Shen Qing opened her mouth and mumbled these words woodenly, then finally laughed out loud with her head tilted back. Her body trembled uncontrollably, and the sporadic crying and laughing grew louder and louder in the room, expressing her extreme sadness.
"Lu Tingchuan, why don't you believe me? Why don't you believe this is your child? Why are you so cruel?"
"Believe you?" Lu Tingchuan sneered. "Shen Qing, do you remember what I said to you? I hate deception the most. You said this bastard is mine, so let me ask you, why did the test result show it was only five months old? How did you get pregnant with my child during those five months you were on the run? Did you get pregnant in a dream?"
"You and Jiang Yiming stayed together all day and all night, living under the same roof. Everyone in town said you were a loving couple. You went to the hospital together for a pregnancy checkup and proposed on the main street. It was so romantic! And that's it! And you still dare to tell me that you and Jiang Yiming have no relationship? No relationship at all. Would you jump into a pool full of snakes for him? Would you yell at me for an ordinary ring?"
