Zhou Dang walked silently to the ward. Wen's mother was gone, and Wang Ma had thoughtfully closed the door. Wen Yue stared blankly at the ceiling for a long time before she spoke.
"I should have known it earlier. The morning sickness that I suddenly stopped that day was actually my child asking me for help, but I didn't receive the signal. I deserve not to be his mother. I don't deserve it."
Zhou Dang's heart ached.
"Don't say that." He walked forward and held Wen Yue's hand. It was icy cold, without any warmth at all.
"I thought the child was a gift from God. I thought as long as I had the child, I could turn a blind eye to you and do what you said about not focusing on you." Wen Yue stared at the ceiling without even glancing at Zhou Dang. "Now that the child is gone, everything is back to square one."
Zhou Dang couldn't utter a word; his heart was overwhelmed by a huge sense of guilt.
"Let's get a divorce, Zhou Dang." Wen Yue's eyes slowly focused on Zhou Dang. "Let's get a divorce. I know you've always had someone else outside. I also know you don't love me and only married me on impulse. I know all that. Now that the child is gone, I have nothing to tie you down. I'll grant your wish, I'm willing to grant your wish."
Wen Yue smiled, and her smile shattered like a glass doll.
Zhou Dang turned around and quickly wiped his eyes.
He was speechless. He had never hated himself as much as he did at that moment. He hated his irresponsibility for involving such a kind and innocent person in his marriage. What kind of bastard was he?
"Don't tell my parents that you were the one who filed for divorce, otherwise they will definitely not let you go. I will say that I was the one who filed for divorce." Even at this time, Wen Yue was still concerned about whether Zhou Dang would be embarrassed by his parents.
Zhou Dang lowered his head and said nothing. He suddenly felt a little breathless. He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.
"Wenyue, I'm sorry for you."
"Don't talk about it. It was my own choice. I have nothing to apologize for. I have chosen the path and I need to finish it myself. You can go out now. I have to go for a curettage and abortion this afternoon. Come back to me when you have the divorce agreement ready."
Zhou Dang stood up and fled the ward. He couldn't stay here any longer. He couldn't bear it even for a second.
When Aunt Wang saw him come out, she looked at him with her mouth open, wanting to say something but stopping herself. In the end, she held back and turned back to the ward.
Zhou Dang returned to the villa in a daze. Everything was quiet. He sat on the sofa, smoking one cigarette after another.
The cell phone on the coffee table was in speakerphone mode, and opposite him sat Zhou Dang's lawyer.
"Well, my father just gave me two manors in France. Give one to Wenyue, and the other villa in Jiangbei to her as well. You can give the others as you see fit. Send the divorce agreement to me tomorrow."
Out of guilt, Zhou Dang gave Wen Yue a large amount of property compensation.
After finishing this matter, Zhou Dang was still very upset, so he called his mother.
"I'm going to divorce Wen Yue. It will be done in the next two days. I'm letting you know."
"What?" Zhou's mother was shocked. "Do you know what you are talking about? You and Wenyue have been married for less than a year, and isn't she pregnant?"
"The child is gone." Zhou Dang's voice was cold.
"How could this happen? What's going on?" Zhou's mother was anxious. "Even if the baby was aborted, you can't divorce me? You divorced me right after the baby was aborted. How will the Wen family view us?"
"Don't worry about my affairs. Let them bully me. I won't give in." Zhou Dang was too lazy to talk nonsense with his mother and hung up the phone directly.
However, not long after, the phone rang again, this time it was Wen's mother.
"Xiaodang, are you comfortable talking?"
Zhou Dang knew that this was someone coming to question him, "I'm free, please tell me."
"Wenyue just told me that she wants to divorce you. What's going on? She just had a miscarriage, why would she want a divorce?"
"What did she say?" Zhou Dang asked.
"She said she's come to her senses and that this marriage was a mistake. She also said she lost her children and now just wants to live alone. How could this happen? Did something happen between you two?"
Zhou Dang didn't expect that Wen Yue really didn't mention his faults at all. His heart began to ache again. What he hated most in his life was owing others, but he owed Wen Yue so much.
"Mom, it's all my fault that I'm sorry to Wenyue. If you want to blame someone, blame me. It's me who wants a divorce. I'm not a human being." Zhou Dang couldn't hide behind a woman, so he told her all his faults in detail.
"Zhou Dang, are you still a human being? You..." Before Zhou's mother could finish her words, the phone was snatched away, "Baby, why did you get up? Your body..."
"Zhou Dang, it's me, I'm hanging up." Wen Yue's voice only appeared for a moment, and the phone returned to silence again.
Zhou Dang sat on the sofa in a daze, staring at the hung up phone. He didn't want to think about anything. When a person is overwhelmed by guilt, he just wants to hide.
He is also at this moment.
Lin Sui sat on the sofa at home, waiting for news from Zhou Dang, but there was no reply. She didn't know what the situation was like over there, and she couldn't feel at ease.
But she also knew that Zhou Dang must be extremely worried at the moment, and she couldn't ask any more questions.
She looked at her belly, which was getting bigger and bigger, and told herself that she was doing nothing wrong. She was fighting for the status and interests of her child, and she was doing nothing wrong.
She got up, ate quietly, then took a shower and went to bed, just like usual.
She told herself not to worry about Zhou Dang's mess, as it would eventually end, and she just had to live her own life.
The next day, she went to work again, decked out in all her finery. Her beauty instincts had recently awakened, and she felt uncomfortable if she didn't dress up to the nines. She didn't know how much of this was about "dressing up to please yourself" or how much was about pleasing Gu Yuan, and she didn't want to consider it.
She arrived at the company very early and sat bored at her workstation. Lily and Jasmine had not arrived yet.
After a while, Gu Yuan came. When he saw her, he raised his eyebrows and Lin Sui smiled.
"You're wearing something so beautiful?" Gu Yuan unexpectedly walked over directly.
"I'm beautiful every day." Lin Sui didn't buy it.
"You look extra beautiful today." Gu Yuan looked at Lin Sui again.
She was wearing a new Chinese-style cheongsam today, which was pink and tender. Although her belly was big, it looked unique.
"Thank you." Lin Sui didn't want to have anything to do with Gu Yuan in public, so he put on an official face.
Gu Yuan knew what she meant, shook his head and smiled, then walked back to his office.
