"I never knew you were so good with words." Xiang Zhilan smiled, accepting his praise, but inwardly she was extremely anxious.
Judging from his tone, he was determined to stay with her that day. What could she do? Was she supposed to give up and leave that day?
But everything else is ready, and it would be a shame to give up now, but we'd have to reschedule later.
And she's almost seven months pregnant, and he's been staring at her belly for longer and longer periods lately, I wonder what he's up to.
She really couldn't delay any longer, but with him around, how could she possibly escape? She was afraid that, except for the short time she spent in the bathroom, he would follow her everywhere else.
"I'm sorry about what happened recently." Shen Muzhi lowered his eyes and gently exhaled as he apologized.
"Hmm?" Xiang Zhilan snapped out of her daze and asked in confusion.
"It's nothing." Shen Muzhi put down the pillow that Xiang Zhilan was standing on, gently moved her head from his arms to the pillow, kissed her forehead, and said, "Go to sleep early."
"Hmm." Xiang Zhilan closed her eyes, concealing her worries, and secretly thought of a plan.
Suddenly, a good idea came to him: he could have his friend pretend to be calling from the hospital and tell him that Su Yan was critically ill, and then he definitely wouldn't be able to go with her.
After coming up with an idea, Xiang Zhilan felt relieved and fell soundly asleep.
Shen Muzhi couldn't sleep. Su Yan really couldn't wait any longer. Even with chemotherapy, it wouldn't last more than three months.
At that point, I'm afraid it might get so bad that even bone marrow wouldn't be able to save it, which would be very dangerous.
Was he really going to watch her die like this? She had once been a ray of light to him; it was as if the world was bright wherever she was. He had experienced that light disappear before; did he have to experience it again? Even if he no longer loved her as much, she still meant something different to him.
He couldn't bear to watch his childhood friend die, he couldn't bear to see her die. He truly couldn't bear to watch her die.
Shen Muzhi closed his eyes in deep sorrow, and another sleepless night followed.
In a VIP suite at the Grand Hotel, an elderly man in a wheelchair gazes at the night view of Yihai. On his lap are many photos of Xiang Zhilan, her smile so bright and sunny.
After hanging up the phone, the middle-aged man walked towards the old man and respectfully leaned down to whisper in his ear, "Miss Zhi Lan seems to want to leave Yihai City secretly. She has already secretly prepared to smuggle herself to Malaysia and has booked a flight from Malaysia to Australia. In addition, she has also bought a flight from Yihai to France."
The old man frowned slightly. "She's pregnant and due in two months. What is she doing?"
"It seems she wants to leave Mr. Shen. I found out that Miss Zhi Lan was forced into their marriage," the middle-aged man reported.
“Why would my granddaughter, Luo Zhenxian’s granddaughter, need to do this? If she wants to leave that man, she can just get a divorce. Does she think she’s afraid of the Shen family?” The old man seemed a little angry.
“Sir, the Shen family is indeed beyond our control in Yihai.” The middle-aged man looked at the old man. Although he still maintained his authority, he had retired and was no longer the same person he used to be.
“She’s pregnant, it won’t be easy for her to leave. Let our people help her from behind.” Luo Zhenxian took a deep breath and said, “Keep a close eye on her, don’t let anything happen to her.”
“Ade understands.” The middle-aged man nodded. It was relatively easy for them to protect someone and leave.
