“You protected the child so well that he never showed his face to anyone, but even so, I still found him, which means that my son and I were destined to meet.” Qiao Wanwan said calmly, “But don’t worry, even if you fight me to the end, I will not kill the person who raised my son, because I can see that you also truly love him.”
"Miss Qiao, please let us go!" Qin Shujun slowly stood up, and the next second, she knelt down directly in front of Qiao Wanwan. "I'm begging you."
Qiao Wanwan choked up and said, "If you think that kneeling is enough to give up, then I'm willing to kneel down for you too."
Qin Shujun silently shed tears, "No, what I mean is, Xiao Jiu may not be the child you expected. You may not know, but he can't speak."
"What did you say..." Qiao Wanwan's heart felt like it had been struck by a hammer. "Why can't he speak? His twin brother, Eleven, is perfectly fine!"
“Not only can’t he speak, but Xiao Jiu is also very introverted and hardly communicates with anyone. He seems to be immersed in his own world. The Zhao family calls him a little monster. My son and I have suffered countless scornful looks and humiliations over the years.” Qin Shujun said with tears streaming down her face. “Miss Qiao, I am more than ten years older than you and have plenty of patience. I also love Xiao Jiu as my own son and am willing to suffer with him.”
"But you're different. You're so young. Do you really have enough energy and patience to take care of and accompany Xiao Jiu? If he keeps not talking, especially with such a stark contrast between him and his twin brother, won't you slowly grow to hate and despise him?"
"I wouldn't!" Qiao Wanwan said without hesitation. "He's my own son. Since he has problems, of course I'll focus more on him. How could I possibly despise or hate him!"
"You make it sound so easy, but some things are very, very difficult to do." Qin Shujun wiped the tears from her face. "You've never raised a troubled child, so you can't imagine the heartache and hardship involved. Whether it's for myself or for Xiao Jiu, I won't give him to you."
“Mrs. Zhao, this is not up to you.” Qiao Wanwan tried to suppress the pain in her chest. “I finally found my son, and I must bring him home. It doesn’t matter that he can’t speak, I will treat him.”
Qin Shujun said helplessly, "Do you think I haven't taken him to doctors for treatment? It's simply incurable."
“If he can’t be cured, then he should go home. I will protect and accompany him. I will let him know that even if he never speaks again, I will still love him.” Qiao Wanwan stood up and helped the woman kneeling on the ground to her feet. “Mrs. Zhao, I can’t let the child go with you today. You don’t need to threaten me with death. I don’t want you to die, but do you really think I’m afraid of your threats?”
Qin Shujun trembled violently!
Yes, what threat could her life pose to Qiao Wanwan?
With her dead, Qiao Wanwan could take Xiao Jiu away with even more justification!
Just as Qiao Wanwan turned to leave, Qin Shujun grabbed her wrist!
"Miss Qiao!" Qin Shujun said anxiously, "You already have a son, and you're pregnant with another one. Why do you have to take a child who can't speak away from me?"
Qiao Wanwan frowned and flung her hand away. "What do you mean by 'steal'? He's my child! And just because I have a child, does that mean I can abandon him? What kind of logic is that? You've been a biological mother yourself, can't you understand how I feel?"
"Then who will understand my feelings!" Qin Shujun cried. "First I lost my own son, then my husband. I have nothing left. I only have Xiao Jiu. Please, have mercy, don't take him from me. I'm begging you..."
Qiao Wanwan said coldly and resolutely, "I told you, I sympathize with you, but a child is not an object, he is my life, and I cannot hand him over to you!"
"Miss Qiao!"
Just as Qin Shujun was about to say something, the door was suddenly opened, and two identical little boys walked in.
"Mommy," Eleven said, "stop arguing."
Qiao Wanwan looked at her son in front of her, squatted down in front of him, slowly raised her trembling hand, stroked his tender little face, and finally couldn't help but hug him tightly!
"My child..."
This is her child, the child she searched for with great difficulty!
But he couldn't speak, and even suffered scorn and ridicule in the Zhao family, being called a little monster!
Qiao Wanwan felt a sharp pain in her heart, and cried, "I'm sorry, it's all Mommy's fault. Mommy is incompetent and failed to protect you, which is why you've suffered so much. I'm so sorry..."
Zhan Jingting walked in, looked at the scene before him, and felt heartbroken.
Suddenly, Qiao Wanwan frowned, and her face grew paler and paler!
Zhan Jingting quickly stepped forward to help her up, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
My stomach feels a little sore...
Zhan Jingting immediately picked her up and carried her outside. "Prepare the car, we're going to the hospital!"
......
Zhan Jingting rushed Qiao Wanwan to the hospital as quickly as possible.
Qin Shujun did not have a chance to leave with Xiao Jiu, but was forcibly brought to the hospital.
After examining her, the doctor reported, "The pregnant woman has been distressed and should not be overly upset or angry. She must be extra careful."
"Is everything else alright?" Zhan Jingting asked anxiously.
"No problem. Try to rest in bed for the next couple of days and keep a happy and peaceful mood."
Zhan Jingting finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay."
"The pregnant woman was a little tired and fell asleep. Do you think we should discharge her directly or let her stay in the hospital for one night?"
Zhan Jingting said, "Let her stay for one night and get a good night's sleep."
"OK."
Jiang Dong went to complete the hospitalization procedures and returned to report, "Master Zhan, Qin Shujun's health is not very good either. She had a doctor examine her and needs to be hospitalized for intravenous infusion."
"Hmm." Zhan Jingting looked at Qiao Wanwan sleeping on the hospital bed. "Where's the baby?"
"Both young masters are in the next lounge, and they seem to get along well."
Zhan Jingting got up and went to the lounge.
As soon as the door opened, the two children looked over at the same time, their little faces exactly alike.
Looking at the two miniature versions of himself, Zhan Jingting felt a mix of emotions. He walked forward, squatted down in front of them, raised his hand to touch Xiao Jiu's face, and said in a deep voice, "Hello, let me introduce myself. I am your daddy."
"Daddy, your little brother can't talk, so don't scare him," Eleven reminded him.
Although they are twin brothers and look exactly alike, Zhan Jingting can clearly feel that the two children have completely opposite personalities!
Although Shiyi was raised by Wenxue, she was not led astray by her. Especially after returning to Wutong Bay, her personality became more and more cheerful, like a little treasure.
Zhan Jingting could clearly sense the fear and unease in the eyes of the silent child in front of him, and even looked at him with a cautious and inquisitive gaze!
