Chapter 161 I’m afraid it will be difficult to have children in this life
Xu Mingyue struggled to stand up, her voice trembling.
The man in the lead was Tang Qinlan's nephew Tang Xinpeng, but he didn't give her any chance at all.
The man raised his hand without saying a word.
“Bang!”
A loud and crisp slap landed heavily on Xu Mingyue's face.
The force was so great that she tilted her body sideways and her ears were buzzing.
"What?"
"It will teach you a lesson."
Tang Xinpeng's younger brother Tang Xinyu stepped forward, pinched her chin and forced her to raise her head.
"If you dare to mess with our Tang family, you should know the consequences."
“Bang!”
Another slap, on the other side of the face.
Blood instantly seeped out of the corners of Xu Mingyue's mouth.
My cheeks felt burning, as if they had been burned by an iron.
"Today, I will ask you for some interest on the injustice my aunt suffered in the Lu family."
Tang Xinpeng's eyes were fierce as he glanced over her protected belly.
"Do you think you can gain entry into the royal family with this bastard?"
"dream!"
The two men were very tactful and did not touch her belly directly.
They just slapped her face left and right, over and over again.
The sound of slapping was particularly harsh in the empty living room.
Xu Mingyue was beaten so hard that she felt dizzy and dazed.
She wanted to scream and beg for mercy, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she was slapped even harder.
"Please, stop hitting me... I was also deceived by Lu Tingfeng."
She cried incoherently and tried to block it with her hands.
During the pushing and shoving, he lost his balance and fell backwards suddenly.
There was a muffled "bang" sound.
Her lower back hit the hard corner of the mahogany dining table behind her.
An extremely sharp pain instantly exploded from the waist and abdomen, spreading to every part of the body.
"hiss……"
Xu Mingyue let out a painful groan, curled up, and cold sweat instantly soaked her back.
She was in so much pain that she couldn't straighten her back and even breathing became difficult.
Seeing this, the Tang brothers looked at each other and stopped what they were doing.
Tang Xinyu kicked her leg and muttered in disdain.
"Why are you pretending?"
"I just pushed you twice, don't try to blackmail me."
Tang Xinpeng snorted coldly and straightened his collar.
"Today is just an appetizer."
"If you dare to pester me again, next time, it won't be as simple as a slap in the face."
"Let's go."
The two achieved their goal and left the villa quickly without even looking at Xu Mingyue lying on the ground.
They just taught her a lesson and didn't touch her belly. If Lu Tingfeng really makes a fuss for her in the future, it would be understandable for them.
It was her own bad luck that she bumped into the table.
The door was closed again and the living room returned to silence.
Xu Mingyue lay on the cold floor, feeling as if her body was torn in two.
Waves of heavy pain came from my lower abdomen, becoming more and more frequent and intense.
Then, she felt an uncontrollable warmth slowly sliding down between her legs.
She lowered her head with difficulty.
On the light-colored home pants, a glaring dark red spot is rapidly expanding.
Blood.
It's blood!
Xu Mingyue's pupils suddenly shrank, and unprecedented fear gripped her heart.
Child...her child!
She trembled and groped for the phone that had fallen to the ground, her fingertips stained with sticky blood.
She used all her strength to dial Lu Tingfeng's number.
It's still turned off.
This man could never be contacted when she needed him the most.
In desperation, she pressed "120" tremblingly.
The moment the phone was connected, her voice was weak.
“Help…Help…”
"Tinglan Garden... Building A..."
After saying the last few words, the phone slipped from her weak hands and her consciousness fell into darkness.
When the ambulance arrived, Xu Mingyue was already lying in a pool of dark red blood.
The cold air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
The lights in the emergency room were blindingly white.
The doctor's cold voice was like a scalpel, cutting through her last hope.
"The patient is bleeding profusely, and the baby... has slipped out of the birth canal and cannot be saved."
"We need to perform a uterine curettage immediately. Where are the family members?"
“I can’t get in touch with you…”
Xu Mingyue was still somewhat lucid, but after hearing these words, she felt desolate.
"I don't have any family, I can sign on my own."
A consent form for surgery was handed to her.
Xu Mingyue was lying on the mobile hospital bed, and she could clearly feel her child being separated from her body bit by bit.
That was where all her hopes rested.
It was the chip she thought could change her fate.
Now, it has all turned into a pool of blood.
A sorrow she had never experienced before swept over her like a tide and drowned her.
She picked up the pen tremblingly and wrote her name on the signature column.
A drop of hot tear fell on the paper, blurring the ink.
…
The next day, Lu Tingfeng finally appeared in the ward.
He was wearing a well-tailored black coat, his hair was combed meticulously, and his expression was as indifferent as a stranger.
In the ward, the white walls and white sheets made Xu Mingyue's face, which was swollen like a pig's head, look even more terrifying.
He just glanced at it lightly and frowned slightly.
There was no concern, no comfort, and not even a question about how the child died.
It was as if the little life that once existed was just an insignificant illusion.
Xu Mingyue looked at him, moved her lips, but no sound came out.
Lu Tingfeng walked forward, took out a bank card from his coat pocket, and casually placed it on the bedside table.
"The password is your birthday."
His voice, like him, was devoid of warmth.
"The money inside is enough for you to take good care of yourself."
He paused, as if stating something quite ordinary.
"Whether I have this child or not doesn't affect my share of Lu's shares."
"So, it doesn't matter."
It doesn't matter.
These three words, like a knife, stabbed into Xu Mingyue's heart.
She stared at the man in front of her with wide eyes in disbelief.
He clearly valued this child so much before, but now he says it doesn't matter.
Although she didn't know what happened, his coldness made Xu Mingyue even more heartbroken.
Because she already felt that she was no longer valuable to Lu Tingfeng, this card was his compensation.
After Lu Tingfeng finished speaking, he turned around gracefully without any trace of nostalgia.
The tall figure disappeared resolutely at the door of the ward.
"Click", the door was closed gently.
She was the only one left in the world.
Xu Mingyue slowly turned her head, looked at the cold bank card, and suddenly laughed softly.
As I laughed, tears started streaming down my face.
The doctor told her last night that she was bleeding heavily and was sent to the hospital too late, so she might not be able to have children again in this life.
When Xu Mingyue's world collapsed into a bloody mess, Sang Wan was sleeping soundly.
She slept in Lu Tingzhou's arms until noon.
The refreshing and pleasant scent of cedar from his body lingered on my nose.
This was the first New Year that she had truly celebrated since her mother passed away.
None of Lin Lan's sarcasm.
Without Xu Mingyue's constant provocation.
Only peace and warmth.
Sang Wan slowly opened her eyes. The seat beside her was empty, but his body temperature still remained.
She stretched, and a lazy comfort emanated from her bones.
The sunlight shines through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, casting a golden glow on the carpet.
The heater was on high, and she was only wearing a thin silk nightgown, her feet bare on the soft wool carpet.
Lu Tingzhou's voice could be faintly heard from the yard downstairs.
"Grandpa, be careful."
"Grandpa, try to come over here."
Sang Wan walked to the window and gently opened it a crack.
Cold air rushed in through the gaps, carrying the smell of sunshine.
In the yard, Lu Tingzhou, wearing a casual gray sportswear, was exercising with his grandfather.
He stood by his grandfather's side with his arms outstretched, as if he was protecting a toddler.
The sunlight outlined his tall figure and perfect profile, removing the sharpness and oppression that he usually had when running the group, and adding a bit of homely gentleness.
After walking for a while, worried that his grandfather would be tired, he helped his grandfather into the wheelchair and did some stretching exercises himself.
The old man looked at him with great interest, a smile in his eyes, and even raised his arms to follow his every move.
The sunlight shines on them, old and young, and the scene is as beautiful as an oil painting.
Sang Wan's heart was filled with an emotion called "happiness".
This is home, and this is what happiness should be like.
"woke up?"
As if sensing her gaze, Lu Tingzhou stopped and looked in her direction.
There was a smile in his black eyes, as if crushing the stars in the sky.
Sang Wan nodded vigorously at him, turned and left.
Lu Tingzhou walked towards the door, and Sang Wan also came out in slippers.
As she reached the door, Lu Tingzhou came up to help her tidy up her cashmere coat.
"It's cold outside."
There was a subtle hint of reproach in Lu Tingzhou's voice, but his hands gently tightened her collar.
"The sun is so nice, it feels so comfortable to get some fresh air." Sang Wan raised her face with curved eyebrows.
"The sun is shining so brightly, it's not cold at all."
She stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the lips.
"Sunbathing to supplement calcium is good for the baby, too."
After saying that, she ran towards her grandfather in the yard like a light butterfly.
Lu Tingzhou looked at her back and shook his head helplessly and lovingly.
"Grandpa, Happy New Year!"
Sang Wan playfully ran to the wheelchair, bent down, and spoke in a sweet and crisp voice.
As if by magic, she pulled a small plastic water bomb from her pajama pocket.
With a "snap", he squeezed it hard with his fingertips.
A few drops of cool water splashed onto the old man's face, which was marked by the years.
The old man was stunned at first.
Then, that still somewhat dull face slowly broke into a smile.
He stretched out his dry hand and took the initiative to hold Sang Wan.
"You are naughty girl."
There is intimacy and love that cannot be hidden in the voice.
The old man has been able to speak intermittently recently, and his speech has become logical and relatively coherent.
Sang Wan had no doubt that grandpa would wake up.
Lu Tingzhou walked over and stood behind Sang Wan. He naturally put his big hands on her shoulders and gently rubbed her hair.
"It's naughty."
His eyes were so gentle that they could drip water.
"You are so naughty, what should I do in the future?"
Sang Wan looked back at him in confusion.
"I'm naughty, and it's not the first day you know it. Aren't you fine now?"
Lu Tingzhou pretended to sigh deeply, his eyes falling on her slightly fleshy belly.
"Now you're the only one."
"In the future, there will be three."
