After saying that, Yu Meng walked straight into the cabin lounge area of the ship, leaving the two of them with only their backs.
Chen Zhan stared at Yu Meng's back as she walked further and further away, and noticed that his mother's expression was different from before.
Suddenly, a bad omen flashed through his mind.
The sea at night was much colder than the land. Xie Shizhu sneezed several times while standing beside him, and shrank his shoulders in his arms because of the cold.
Chen Zhan didn't have time to think about it, and hugged her into the restaurant area inside the cruise ship.
Xie Shizhu was a little hungry, so he stood in the crowd and asked Shen Zhan to help him get some food.
Shen Zhan touched her head, pulled the clothes draped over her tighter, and asked softly, "What do you want to eat now?"
Xie Shizhu pointed to the fruit cake placed not far away and said, "I want the strawberry one."
Shen Zhan curled his lips slightly, "Okay."
He walked with his long legs to the pastry area, carefully selected, and finally chose a strawberry cake that looked relatively fresh.
After Shen Zhan finished choosing, he walked towards Xie Shizhu with the cake.
Xie Shizhu walked towards him with a smile on his face, his eyes fixed on the cake in Shen Zhan's hand.
Suddenly, a child about seven or eight years old rushed over, holding a balloon in his hand, and ran around the restaurant area.
The child bumped into several people in the restaurant. Since they all knew each other and the child was the son of Shen Zhizhou's sister, everyone turned a blind eye and endured the bumping.
When the child saw that no one was paying attention to him, he became even more excited and ran around the restaurant recklessly.
Xie Shizhu looked down at the little boy running towards her and dodged on purpose, but who would have thought that the little brat was trying to bump into her on purpose.
She was pushed and fell backwards. Xie Shizhu opened her eyes wide and subconsciously protected her stomach.
Fortunately, she just sat down on the ground and didn't fall badly.
The little boy watched her fall and said with a smile as if his prank had succeeded, "That was fun."
Xie Shizhu's face darkened and he wanted to stand up and teach this undisciplined child a lesson.
But Shen Zhan was one step ahead of her, grabbing the little boy's collar from behind and pulling him in front of her.
Then Shen Zhan looked down at the little boy, and his cold eyes scared the little boy so much that he burst into tears.
The miserable cries filled the entire cabin.
The little boy's mother, Shen Zhan's aunt, came over from the crowd. Seeing Shen Zhan's dark face, the aunt hurried over to apologize and said, "This child got into trouble while I was away."
"Mom, my uncle is mean to me," the little boy pointed at Shen Zhan's face and cried.
Chen Zhan frowned slightly, then turned around and gently helped Xie Shizhu, who was sitting on the ground, up.
When she stood up, the people around her asked in astonishment: "Why is your butt bleeding?"
Xie Shizhu was slightly startled and subconsciously reached out to touch her white skirt.
She felt a wet feeling on her fingertips, and she sluggishly withdrew her hand and moved it in front of her eyes. She looked down at the bright red blood on her palm and stood there in a daze.
The little boy suddenly stopped crying when he saw this scene.
My aunt suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem and her face turned terribly pale.
Shen Zhan's usually calm expression was distracted for a moment. Although he was in a state of confusion, he quickly adjusted his state, took out his cell phone and made a call, asking someone to pull the boat to the shore immediately.
He called another ambulance.
After finishing everything, Shen Zhan's palms were sweating. He looked down at Xie Shizhu's pale and frightened expression, then suddenly looked up at his aunt not far away and said in a calm voice: "Although he is still young and the law cannot convict him, you are his mother and need to bear civil liability for him."
The aunt stared at Shen Zhan in a daze, as if she couldn't believe that her nephew could tear his face with her for an unborn child in his belly.
"He's just a child..." The aunt was so anxious that she almost burst into tears, "He's your nephew too, how can you be so unkind..."
But Shen Zhan couldn't hear any sound at all, and all he could see in his pupils was Xie Shizhu's pale face.
Shen Zhan didn't dare to hug her, for fear that something might go wrong and cause secondary harm.
He could only help Xie Shizhu sit on the sofa beside him, and bend down to wipe the sweat from the tip of her nose with a wet tissue.
This was the first time Xie Shizhu had encountered such a situation. Her eyes misted over and she whispered, "Husband, is the baby going to be gone?"
Shen Zhan touched her head and said, "It's going to be okay."
Xie Shizhu lowered his head, looked at the tip of his shoes, and fell into a long silence.
After a while, Zhang Ya returned to the cabin. As soon as she walked in, she heard a lot of people whispering, apparently about Xie Shizhu being pushed and having a miscarriage.
abortion……
Hearing these two words, Zhang Ya's eyes flashed with astonishment and fear.
This child cannot be aborted. Only if Xie Shizhu gives birth to the child can she get half of the Zhang family's assets.
And she waited for three years, and finally her daughter became pregnant.
If the child is gone, these three years will be wasted.
Zhang Ya almost stumbled over to Xie Shizhu. The first thing she asked when she saw her daughter was, "Is the child okay?"
He didn't care about his daughter's situation at all.
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Zhan's eyes changed slightly as he looked at her, and a hint of depth rose in his eyes.
Xie Shizhu's lips were bloodless. She shook her head and whispered, "I don't know either."
Zhang Ya's forehead was covered in sweat. Seeing her daughter so carefree even though she was pregnant and fell to the ground, she instantly became angry and scolded her daughter with a dark face: "You are not alone now, you are pregnant with another child, why don't you pay more attention?"
