"I'm here, I'm here." Li Yulin squeezed her hand, his eyes filled with pity. "How are you feeling? Is anything bothering you?"
Li Susu closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm her surging emotions.
Tears silently slid down her cheeks.
Li Yulin tenderly wiped away her tears, his tone gentle yet firm.
"Don't be afraid, Su Su, it's all over now, I'll always be by your side."
She struggled to sit up, and Li Yulin quickly helped her up.
“Child…” Li Susu’s voice was so hoarse it was almost inaudible, yet it was filled with endless grief.
Li Yulin's expression instantly turned even more serious, and he avoided Li Susu's gaze.
“Su Su…” Li Yulin’s voice choked up. He didn’t know how to tell her this cruel truth.
Seeing her brother's expression, Li Susu already had a vague answer in her heart.
Her body trembled even more violently, and tears welled up in her eyes again.
“My child… is gone?” Li Susu’s voice trembled, filled with disbelief and despair.
Li Yulin finally nodded.
Li Susu felt as if her world had collapsed at that moment.
She gripped the sheets tightly, her knuckles turning white, her body trembling violently with immense grief.
"Why...why is this happening..." Li Susu asked again and again.
The moment she left the Fu family, she felt the baby move and decided to keep the child.
After all, this is only her child.
But fate played a cruel joke on her.
Perhaps, it really isn't the right time.
Li Yulin looked at his sister with heartache. He reached out his hand, wanting to hug her, but he was afraid of touching the pain in her heart. In the end, he just gently patted her shoulder.
Li Susu didn't speak, she just silently shed tears.
The ward was silent, except for her suppressed sobs echoing in the air.
one day.
Two days.
Three days...
Li Susu seemed to be trapped in endless darkness, unable to extricate herself.
She neither ate nor drank, nor spoke; she simply stared blankly at the ceiling, her eyes empty and devoid of any light.
Every now and then, she would turn her gaze toward the doorway.
However, the entrance remained empty.
No one came.
Li Yulin stayed by her side every step of the way, watching her grow thinner and thinner, his heart breaking.
Li Yulin walked out of the ward and gently closed the door.
He rubbed his temples wearily.
In the corridor, Fu Xingzhou's tall figure leaned against the wall, his hands in his pockets, his head down, and his expression was not visible.
He has been standing here for three days and three nights without sleep or rest.
His bespoke suit had long lost its former luster, and stubble had sprouted, but it still couldn't hide his innate noble temperament.
Li Yulin walked up to him and sighed, "Aren't you really going in to see her?"
Fu Xingzhou raised his head, revealing a pair of bloodshot eyes.
His voice was hoarse, with a slight, almost imperceptible tremor, "I'm afraid... I'm afraid to see her like this."
He was afraid to see the despair in her eyes, afraid to see her resentment towards him, and even more afraid to see her heart broken.
He would rather stand here and silently protect her than face her.
Seeing him like this, Li Yulin felt a little bad.
“Su Su, she…” Li Yulin was about to say something when he was interrupted by a rapid ringing of the phone.
Fu Xingzhou's phone rang.
He took out his phone, glanced at the caller ID, and saw it was his assistant.
