"If I get brain damage, I don't know what I'll do with my baby."
She smiled, though the smile didn't reach her eyes.
But the old lady could still tell that she was reluctant to part with it.
"Alright."
Withdraw your hand.
The old lady glared at Shen Changling and said to him, "If there's a next time, I'll break your legs."
"No, no, it won't happen again," the man apologized sincerely.
He turned around, went into the room, and closed the door.
He took out an abacus from behind his back.
It was thrown to the ground with a thud.
At first, Rong Shang was startled when she heard the noise, thinking he was going to do something.
When I looked back...
He laughed.
The man knelt on the keyboard, his slightly furrowed brows showing that he was in quite a bit of pain.
Good lad.
They're quite clever, though.
Knowing that doing this would prevent her from getting angry.
Rong Shang moved a chair over and sat down in front of him, looking at him and even reaching out to touch his face.
"Is there anything else you want to say?"
"No more." The man shook his head.
Anyway, he'll just kneel down.
"Alright." Rong Shang nodded, turning her gaze away from him. She stood up and said calmly, "Then you can kneel."
Turn around and walk away.
Shen Changling, "..."
"Expressing emotions".
"Hmm, what's wrong?" She turned around.
He simply looked down at the abacus under his knees and said nothing.
Rong Shang understood his meaning in a second.
She laughed, pretending not to see.
The instant he turned around.
A man's sigh came from behind.
Shen Changling thought to himself, "This can't be true."
Why did she actually make him kneel there?
An hour passed quickly after this kneeling.
The man who was still holding on stared longingly at the woman lying on the bed, "..."
I silently prayed: Please wake up, I can't hold on much longer.
My knees hurt.
He bent over slightly in pain.
Just then, the sound of a woman coughing came from ahead.
He quickly straightened his back and knelt down again.
I blame myself, saying, "I won't do that again."
"I should take good care of you and the baby in your belly."
"I'm kneeling here now to show you my feelings."
"I truly feel sorry for you."
"I have been kneeling for an hour."
Don't ask him how he knew; he just felt it should be an hour.
"Even though it's been an hour, you don't need to feel sorry. I'm not in pain, I'm not in pain at all."
Shen Changling spoke at length.
But a long time has passed.
What response did he receive?
Air.
The woman coughed once and then fell asleep again.
Shen Changling, "..."
This is so hard for me!!
*
It is said that Shen Changling's knees swelled up after that day.
Rong Chang woke up after he had been kneeling for two hours.
He was still kneeling on the abacus.
This time, she no longer felt the pleasure of revenge.
Instead, he frowned, strode over, and pulled him up from the abacus.
She accused him, "Are you stupid? Kneeling for so long."
She walked away.
He almost fell.
But then she brought over a chair and asked him to sit down.
Then, he rolled up his trouser leg to check his knee.
Quite some time has passed.
The old lady even made fun of him about it.
They said he deserved it.
Those who lack responsibility deserve to be punished by God.
When someone heard her say that, they smirked and said, "This isn't God's punishment for me; I chose this myself."
*
After becoming pregnant, Rong Shang didn't go anywhere.
She hasn't been back to the Guan family home for months.
Lord Guan visited several times during that period, bringing some eggs and two old hens, saying he wanted to make soup for her.
