"Honey, can you get me some water?"
In the dim room, a woman with limited mobility was lying on the bed and pleading towards the door.
Her husband was playing games in the living room. The blue light shone on his face, and he looked calm as water.
"Husband." The woman shouted again. Logically speaking, he should have heard her since they were so close.
Tap, tap, tap, the man's hands tapped the keyboard without a pause.
"Honey, could you please get me a glass of water?" the woman shouted again, thinking her husband didn't hear her. She had accidentally sprained her waist during the day, and the doctor told her that early pregnancy could easily lead to miscarriage, so she had to get enough rest. She was very worried and scared. This was her first pregnancy, and she didn't want anything to go wrong.
"husband……"
"Fuck, this is so annoying." Listening to her husband's increasingly anxious voice coming from his ears, the man could no longer pretend not to hear. He slammed his hands on the keyboard, stood up with anger and walked to the bedroom door, "Are you okay? You're just a few steps away from here and you're still shouting here. You're so fragile. Are you some kind of rich girl? It's just pregnancy. Others can still dance after being pregnant for seven or eight months, but you're pregnant and your belly is still flat. You can't do this or that. You want me to serve you all day long. You're just delicate, right? I'm playing games, and you're still shouting like you're crying. What are you shouting about?"
The man vented his anger on the woman without disguising it. "I'm telling you, I've put up with you for a long time. Don't think you're so great just because you're pregnant. What the hell is so great about that? It's just a pregnancy. You're tired, but am I not tired working all day to make money? You eat and sleep all day, and now you even want me to do something as trivial as pouring water. Do you want me to quit my job tomorrow and take care of you at home every day? I'm really impressed by you women. You all think you're so great just because you're pregnant."
"My mother is right. You are too pretentious. You are a young lady with a maid's life. You always treat yourself like a dish. I was too indulgent to you in the past. That's why you always want to ride on my head and act like a tyrant and order me to do this and that."
The woman was stunned by his yelling and couldn't help but stammer, "Husband..."
"Okay, stop calling me. I'm tired of hearing it."
The man took out a cigarette and a lighter, and with a click, a scarlet light lit up in the room.
He didn't have any concerns about the pregnant woman and just wanted to vent his troubles.
"Husband, smoking is bad for children."
This sentence completely angered the man. He held the cigarette in his mouth and cursed: "This is not good, that is not good, do you have a piece of gold in your belly? You can't do anything I say, do you want me to die? I tell you, even if the king of heaven comes today, I will smoke this cigarette."
The woman's tears had already soaked the pillow. She questioned in disbelief, "Didn't you say you wanted a child? What have you done for me all day after get off work besides playing games and using your phone? I may not be working now, but I'm the one who cooks and cleans every day. You got mad when I asked you to get me a glass of water today, so why did you want this child then?"
The man blew out a smoke ring and said expressionlessly, "I didn't want it."
"You didn't want it?" The woman grabbed a pillow and threw it at him. "You didn't want to go without a condom every day? You didn't want to keep asking me to have a baby? Who was it that kept saying, 'If I get pregnant, I should stay home and prepare for the pregnancy, and you'll support me?'"
The man said nonchalantly, "Then go get it aborted."
His cold words were like a bolt from the blue. The woman was completely stunned, as if she had never known the man in front of her.
He was her husband and the father of the baby in her belly, but now, he asked her to have an abortion with such cold words.
With a bang, the man slammed the door and walked out.
Soon, the sound of typing and cursing could be heard again in the living room.
Jiang Yanyi appeared at this time.
"You regret it, don't you? Do you want revenge on him? Do you want him to pay the price? I can fulfill your wish."
"Who are you?" Faced with the sudden appearance of a person in the room, the woman with a dead heart was neither afraid nor screaming.
She just rolled her eyes woodenly, focusing her gaze on Jiang Yanyi, "What do you want?"
Jiang Yanyi walked to her bedside: "It doesn't matter who I am. You just need to know that I was summoned by you to fulfill your wish. The system detected that you have extremely strong regrets, so I came here. I don't want anything, I just came to help you."
"Help me." The woman murmured to herself, her hands unconsciously caressing her belly, "My child..."
Jiang Yanyi didn't disturb her. It was normal for her to be struggling inside. After all, she and the man had been in a relationship since high school, and it had indeed cost her a lot of her youth and effort to get to where she is today.
As she was thinking, the woman's stomach suddenly started to ache without warning, "Child, my child..."
She held her belly and whimpered on the bed, "Hubby, husband, save me, our child..."
The sounds of gaming outside the door grew more intense.
The woman looked at the closed door in despair. The thin door became an insurmountable barrier, cutting off her cries for life.
The woman's voice became more and more painful. She looked at Jiang Yanyi and said, "Save me, please save me."
Jiang Yanyi stood there motionless, "Sorry, I can't help you now." As if to prove what he said, Jiang Yanyi put his hand on the woman's shoulder. The next second, the woman watched her hand pass through her body.
Are my child and I going to die like this today?
After all, she was reluctant to leave this world. Relying on her amazing desire to survive and willpower, the woman propped herself up and walked towards the living room with a staggering gait, one step, two steps... Every step she took was extremely difficult, and every step seemed as if someone was splitting her soul with a knife.
Finally, the door opened, and the woman leaned weakly against the doorframe, her body slowly sliding down. "Honey, please call an ambulance for me, please." Ever since she became pregnant, she had placed her phone in the living room before going to bed every night to reduce the radiation from it. Now, looking at the phone so close to her on the table, she felt a wave of regret and despair.
The man was chatting with his in-game teammate, a woman. Normally, they addressed each other as master and apprentice. When the woman heard him call her "husband," she immediately became suspicious and asked, "Master, why do I feel like I hear someone calling you husband? Didn't you say you were single? Do you have a wife?"
The man immediately explained, "No, no, my dear disciple, you must have heard it wrong. The relative's child is watching TV on a tablet. Disciple, please do your task first. I'll go tell the child to turn off the TV and do her homework. Otherwise, she will definitely be criticized tomorrow. I'll come find you later."
After comforting his apprentice, the man quickly turned off the voice chat. He took off his headphones and turned around with an impatient look on his face. "What's wrong with you? What do you want? Can you please leave me alone for a moment?"
The woman burst into tears again, and she pleaded weakly, "Husband, my stomach hurts. Please save me and the child. Call an ambulance for us."
The man sneered: "Keep pretending. You asked me to get some water just now, and now you want me to call an ambulance. Are you going to ask me to contact the crematorium later?" He glanced at the woman sitting on the ground with disdain. She had come here without taking a few more steps to get her phone, and she wanted to order him around. What a hypocrite.
"My stomach really hurts..."
"Damn it, that's enough, stop talking." The man yelled, picked up the coat on the sofa, "I don't care what you guys do." After that, he strode to the door, opened it and slammed it open.
Looking at his resolute back as he left, the woman's tears seemed to have dried up at this moment.
The pain in her stomach kept reminding her of what had just happened, and her nails dug into her palms unconsciously.
She murmured, "Lin Wei, you will not die well."
Jiang Yanyi appeared in front of the woman again. She squatted down and looked at the dying woman. "Tsk tsk, your husband is such a scumbag. Not only did he ignore a pregnant woman, he even cheated on you during your pregnancy. You've been with him for so many years and given so much, but in the end, it's all gone to waste. As expected, men are the root of all misfortune."
The woman was in so much pain that she was barely conscious, but she still managed to hold on to her breath and looked up and asked, "What do you need me to do?"
Jiang Yanyi shook his head: "Let me state again, I don't need anything from you, I'm just here to help you."
"I promise you, no matter what you want from me, I will agree to it." The woman firmly believed that there is no free lunch in the world, but now she doesn't care about anything. As long as Lin Wei can get retribution, she is willing to do business with the devil, even if the price is her life.
"Okay." Jiang Yan stretched out his hand and brushed it across her eyes. "Good girl, you did a good job. Now you need to rest. After you succeed, I will make sure you have a healthy body."
The woman's eyes closed, all the pain in her body disappeared, and she felt unprecedented relief and warmth.
The next second, the woman on the ground suddenly opened her eyes.
There was a toughness and coldness in her eyes that had never been seen before.
Jiang Yanyi manipulated the woman's hand and moved it. Very good, she and this body were highly compatible. The pain in her body continued, but now it was no longer the woman who was in pain, but Jiang Yanyi.
Jiang Yanyi stood up with the help of the door frame. Her stomach felt like it was being stabbed by a knife. With every step she took, cold sweat would drip down her cheeks to the ground. Her body was already wet as if she had just been pulled out of the water.
Jiang Yanyi ignored all the pain in her body. She now had only one goal, to send herself to the hospital.
One step, two steps, three steps...Finally, she got the phone.
"Hello, ambulance? Someone needs emergency treatment here..."
