Chapter 138 Please accept my condolences
Tong Miaoling's son struggled to break free from her hand and refused to let her hold it.
"Let me go!"
"Can you be more sensible? Stop making trouble with me all the time." Tong Miaoling suppressed her anger. "It's already annoying enough that I have to work every day. When will you be like other children and stop causing trouble for me and your dad?"
"Why didn't you think of me when you divorced your father?" the little boy shouted, "If you want a sensible child, let someone else be your son!"
Tong Miaoling's chest heaved violently. She didn't know how much effort it took to hold back. She endured it and said, "I divorced your father because we didn't get along. It has nothing to do with you. He is your father no matter what!"
The little boy sneered, "He already has a new girlfriend, and maybe he'll have a child soon. Then he won't be my only father anymore."
"No." Tong Miaoling squatted down and held his shoulders tightly. "Even if your father has a new family, you are still his son."
The little boy refused to listen and pushed Tong Miaoling hard. "It's all your fault. If you had caught Dad, he wouldn't have cheated on me, and I wouldn't have become a child from a single-parent family. It's all your fault! It's all your fault!"
His words were like sharp needles piercing Tong Miaoling's heart. She could no longer bear it and slapped the boy in frustration, "That's enough, shut up!"
With a "slap", the crisp sound of a slap echoed in the parking lot.
After the fight, Tong Miaoling was also stunned. Just as she was about to step forward, the little boy had already covered his face and turned around and ran away.
“Super!”
Tong Miaoling didn't even bother to drive the car and hurried to catch up.
Shen Lai and Wu Qi looked at each other silently in the car.
After the car started, Shen Lai asked curiously, "Why is their mother-son relationship so bad?"
Wu Qi gripped the steering wheel and said, "I saw some reports that this kid knew about their divorce a long time ago. He was just cooperating with the actors on the show before. It is said that Actor Dai has a new girlfriend recently, so this kid must have been upset."
After hearing this, Shen Lai didn't ask any more questions.
When parents divorce, the most innocent ones are the children.
Not long after, the car drove out of the underground parking lot. When turning a corner, Shen Lai saw a commotion not far away. A group of passers-by were watching nearby and pointing at the front.
Following the sight of these people, a little boy was lying on the zebra crossing, with blood slowly flowing out from under him.
There was a car parked not far away, and the driver was talking on his cell phone with an anxious look on his face.
Shen Lai recognized at a glance that it was Tong Miaoling's son.
She looked at Wu Qi, and surprise flashed across both of their faces.
No one expected that something like this would happen in such a short time.
Soon, the ambulance arrived and the medical staff worked together to lift the little boy into the car. Tong Miaoling staggered to follow. At this moment, she caught a glimpse of a car parked not far away and saw Shen Lai and Wu Qi inside.
Red bloodshot appeared in Tong Miaoling's eyes. She didn't care about anything else and hurriedly got into the ambulance.
The sharp whistle soon faded away and the car fell into silence.
Wu Qi sighed, "Is he going to be alright?"
After waiting for a long time without any response, Wu Qi turned around and saw Shen Lai staring at the place where the little boy had just had an accident, with a bad look on his face.
Wu Qi then remembered that Shen Lai was pregnant and started the car again. "It's getting late. I'll take you home."
Shen Lai lowered his eyes and said "Okay".
It was already evening when Pei Jingyan returned to the villa. As soon as he came out of the restaurant, he saw Chen Lai walking in from outside.
Seeing that she was absent-minded, Pei Jingyan asked casually, "Didn't you go shopping with Wu Qi? Why do you look like that?"
Shen Lai was still thinking about the scene he had just seen on the road, and couldn't help but tell Pei Jingyan that Tong Miaoling's son had been in a car accident.
Pei Jingyan had no expression after hearing this. He put his arm around Chen Lai's waist and asked, "Why are you joining in the fun when you're pregnant?"
Shen Lai said guiltily: "How could I join in the fun? I just happened to see it."
Looking at Pei Jingyan's pale face, his tense expression relaxed a little, "Are you scared?"
Shen Lai shook his head and said, "I just feel sorry for that child. Such a thing happened to him out of the blue."
I guess Tong Miaoling is also regretting it now.
If I hadn't slapped the child, he probably wouldn't have run out in anger, let alone been hit by a car.
Pei Jingyan rubbed Chen Lai's head and said, "Okay, don't think too much. I'll give you a cup of hot milk to calm you down later."
Shen Lai hummed softly.
At this moment, she suddenly thought of what Wu Qi said in the mall today, and looked up at Pei Jingyan, "By the way, I have something to ask you."
Pei Jingyan put his arm around her shoulders and sat down on the sofa. "What?"
Shen Lai said hesitantly: "Do you like boys or girls?"
Pei Jingyan didn't react for a moment, raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Lai, "What boy or girl?"
Shen Lai pointed to her belly and said, "It's the baby in my belly. You never seemed to say you wanted a boy or a girl."
Pei Jingyan thought it was something serious, he chuckled, "I like both boys and girls."
Shen Lai observed the expression on his face, "Really?"
Seeing Chen Lai's disbelief, Pei Jingyan's eyebrows were filled with imperceptible amusement, "Why, do you think I favor boys over girls?"
Shen Lai lowered her eyes and stared at the carpet under her feet. After hesitating for a moment, she said, "What about your parents? What if I give birth to a daughter this time?"
Pei Jingyan casually took Shen Lai into his arms and asked, "Are you worried that they will let you keep having children?"
Shen Lai nodded.
She had no obsession with offspring, and if it hadn't been an accidental pregnancy, she wouldn't have given birth so soon.
What's more, she is a female star, and her prime is only a few years. If she gives birth to another child, she probably won't even have the resources when she makes a comeback.
As if seeing Shen Lai's concerns, Pei Jingyan held her shoulders tightly and said, "As long as you don't want to have a baby, no one can force you."
Shen Lai looked up suddenly, "Really?"
Pei Jingyan reached out and flicked her forehead. "Of course it's true. I'm here with you. What are you afraid of?"
Chen Lai recalled every time Pei Jingyan had protected her in the past, and a part of her body softened a little. She leaned on Pei Jingyan's shoulder, and her heart finally settled down.
At this moment, in front of the operating room of the hospital.
Tong Miaoling sat on the bench, the blood on her hands had dried, her eyes were dazed and unfocused, and she was on the verge of collapse.
Soon, hurried footsteps came from the end of the corridor.
Dai Jingxuan's face was filled with anxiety. He rushed over as soon as he heard the news that his child was in trouble. When he saw the nurse coming out of the operating room, he quickly grabbed her arm and asked, "Excuse me, how is my son?"
"The operation is still going on inside, please be patient and wait."
After the nurse left, Dai Jingxuan slowly turned his head to look at Tong Miaoling beside him. His suppressed anger seemed to have found a place to vent, and he angrily said, "How do you raise a child? How could you let him get into a car accident!"
Tong Miaoling trembled with her lips and was unable to speak for a long time.
Dai Jingxuan became angrier the more he thought about it. "If anything happens to the child, I will never let you go!"
Tong Miaoling stood up from the bench as if she couldn't bear it anymore. "Do you know how important your son is now? Why didn't you think about this day when you were looking for other women outside?"
"If it weren't for you and that vixen, I wouldn't have done anything to my son, and nothing would have happened to him!"
Dai Jingxuan was furious. "It's obviously you who didn't take good care of your son, and you're still trying to shirk responsibility!"
"I have responsibilities, don't you have any responsibilities?"
Just as the two were arguing fiercely, the red light above the operating room went out and the door opened from the inside.
The attending doctor came out and asked, "Which one is the patient's family member?"
Without caring about arguing anymore, Dai Jingxuan rushed to the doctor and said, "I am the father of the child, doctor, how is my son?"
The doctor took off his mask and sighed, "I'm sorry, we've done our best. Please accept my condolences."
