Ruan Tao shook her head blankly.
"The greatest self-discipline a woman can have is not to have children casually, because raising a child is too costly for a woman!"
Ruan Tao was even more confused and asked, "Why?"
"Some women aren't worthy of being mothers. If you bring a child into this world without their permission, shouldn't you at least be a qualified mother? Let's not talk about sacrificing your job for your child. I don't advocate for that. Let me tell you about a case I witnessed firsthand."
Ruan Tao listened carefully to Ye Linlang's narration.
"Previously, a doctor in the obstetrics and gynecology department discovered a problem with the baby during a prenatal checkup. The so-called problem was that the baby would be born with an incurable disability. Because the baby was still very young, our doctor advised her not to keep the baby."
"The mother refused to listen. She thought we were deliberately trying to get her medical examination fee and make money from her. She left cursing and never came back. Six months later, the baby boy was found in the guard room at the back door of our hospital."
"Taozi, we eventually called the police and sent this poor baby boy back to his mother. Can you imagine what he's going through next?"
Ruan Tao looked at Ye Linlang thoughtfully and asked in confusion, "Why would she do this? You're doctors, you wouldn't hurt her?"
"Maybe it was ignorance, maybe luck, or maybe it was just a gamble," Ye Linlang lamented. "She brought this child into this world, but what happens next? What kind of life will this child face? Can you imagine?"
Ruan Tao nodded. He would probably blame them for the rest of his life. Why did they bring him into this world? Why did they abandon him?
If he had known that life would be so painful, he would rather not destroy the world.
"Taozi, have you thought it over? If you're sure you want this child, I'll prescribe medicine for you!"
Ruan Tao held the ultrasound report tightly and said, "Sister, I don't want it."
She now cannot accept, both psychologically and physically, that she will become a mother so soon.
She was even more afraid that she wouldn't be a good mother.
"Then I'll prescribe medicine for you."
Ye Linlang prescribed medicine for Ruan Tao.
Xia Zhao went to the toll booth to pay the fee.
After Xia Zhao handed the payment receipt to the nurse, the nurse prepared the medicine and handed it to Ruan Tao.
Ruan Tao looked at the medicine in the cup. The rim of the cup was at her lips, but she didn't dare to drink it in one gulp.
She wanted to steel herself, close her eyes, and drink it without hesitation, but when it really reached her lips, Ruan Tao couldn't bring herself to do it. She felt like an executioner.
Ruan Tao put down the cup, looked at Xia Zhao with a panic expression, and said with a tearful voice, "Xia Zhao, I can't do it."
Xia Zhao took the cup and looked at Ruan Tao. He slowly squatted in front of Ruan Tao, holding her hand tightly, and said, "Taozi, how about we keep this child? It may be a little harder to be pregnant, but after you give birth, I promise that you don't have to worry about this child. I will take full responsibility for her, and she won't affect your studies."
Ruan Tao's heartbeat suddenly became a little rapid.
She doesn't know if she can be a good mother!
But...if she really had to end this child with her own hands, she couldn't do it!
She couldn't be so cruel as to end this little life with her own hands.
