Chapter 69 That's really ruthless.
If Shen Jiheng knows about this issue, then Han Xi must know it too.
But she didn't say anything to get a divorce. Could it be that she planned to abort the child secretly, which is why she didn't mention it to him?
How hateful! What does this woman take him for?
Regardless, he is the child's father and has the right to know everything.
Shen Jiheng gripped the steering wheel tightly, making a squeaking sound.
Han Xi, sitting in the passenger seat, calmed down. Shen Jiheng's reaction must be because someone mentioned this during the phone call earlier.
Even if she escapes this time, he has various ways to bring her back.
Shen Jiheng took her to Hengtian Hospital and had the hospital director examine her personally.
When Shen Jiheng received the pregnancy test results confirming that Han Xi was indeed pregnant, he was filled with mixed emotions of joy and sorrow.
"Why, why didn't you tell me?"
A few years ago, the eldest brother passed away, and the Shen family was devastated. In particular, the mother was so grief-stricken that she stayed in the hospital for two months before recovering. To this day, no one dares to mention it.
When Shen Jiheng first learned that his elder brother had a son, it was something to be happy about. However, the child was later found to be seriously ill, so he dared not bring him back to avoid causing further distress to his family.
Over the years, Shen Jiheng has tried every possible method to treat his nephew's illness.
Nowadays, even when a suitable bone marrow donor is found, it can end up harming one's own child.
Han Xi had never seen him with this expression before. Was he worried that he wouldn't be able to save his nephew after she got pregnant?
“You don’t need to look so troubled. I can abort the child to save your little nephew.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Jiheng's heart clenched. He hadn't even mentioned it. How could Han Xi be so heartless?
Or perhaps she simply didn't want this burden, so she could be with Bo Siyue without any worries.
"Han Xi, you are truly heartless!"
“You’re wronging me. Didn’t we agree to treat your nephew’s illness? Are you going to give up this opportunity? As far as I know, he’s terminally ill and can only be saved with my bone marrow. Can you say you haven’t considered it?”
Han Xi's words made Shen Jiheng freeze. It was impossible for him not to have considered it; all his energy was focused on his child's illness.
Seeing that he didn't respond, Han Xi said again, "Since that's the case, what's there to hesitate about? Let's act according to our agreement."
Hearing her harsh words, Shen Jiheng felt a surge of anger. If she truly cared about him, she wouldn't have said such cold things.
Ultimately, she was only acting out of her own selfish desires.
"You should say you want to get rid of this burden, otherwise how can you start another marriage? You have to pave the way for yourself, whether it was the effort you put into marrying me back then or the easy decision you made today."
Shen Jiheng's sarcastic words plunged Han Xi into an icy abyss, and a trace of sadness appeared on his face.
No one knows how much she once longed for this child, or how much she now suffers and doesn't want to lose it.
But considering Shen Tongtong's condition, she didn't want the poor child to suffer.
However, Shen Jiheng saw her as that kind of person.
Han Xi shook his head, his heart felt like it was being squeezed, he could hardly breathe, and his chest felt so tight it felt like it was about to explode.
Seeing her looking somewhat confused, Shen Jiheng realized he had been too harsh and stepped forward.
"Han Xi, I..."
"Stop talking. Think it over and decide what to do next before you let me know."
Seeing that she was about to leave, Shen Jiheng grabbed her wrist, but before he could speak, he met Han Xi's cold gaze and reluctantly let go. It was better to let her have some peace and quiet for now.
Han Xi walked out of the hospital dejectedly; the last person she wanted to see right now was Shen Jiheng.
She thought that after today, there would be no more connection between her and Shen Jiheng, but who would have thought that this would happen again.
She worried all night, and Murphy's Law still applied to her perfectly.
Shen Jiheng was annoyed; what had he done?
Before he could think any further, his phone rang again. After learning about the child's situation, Grandma Shen urged him to bring the child back.
Judging from Han Xi's reaction just now, it's impossible for her to go back to the old house with him.
Grandma Shen made a harsh statement: if he couldn't bring Han Xi back, he could forget about ever going home again.
Shen Jiheng found Professor Yang again and told him that Shen Tongtong's surgery was postponed because he needed to find a suitable bone marrow donor.
Shen Jiheng returned to the company in a daze, where Qin Chuan was waiting for him in his office.
"President, you're finally back. I have something very important to report to you."
Shen Jiheng sat on the sofa listlessly, completely lacking his usual spirit, and now he was not interested in anything.
"Say what it is!"
"Do you remember when Gu Hanxi was kidnapped last time, and we abandoned your wife halfway through the ordeal?"
Shen Jiheng raised an eyebrow in displeasure.
"Get to the point."
Seeing that he was in a bad mood, Qin Chuan said in a low voice, "I've been investigating Gu Hanxi's whereabouts recently, and I accidentally discovered that she arranged for two thugs to intercept Madam on the way that day, trying to ruin Madam's reputation."
Shen Jiheng raised an eyebrow, exasperated, and asked, "What did you say? Gu Hanxi had someone intercept her on the way?"
Recalling Han Xi's overreaction at the time, he kept blaming himself for leaving her behind. It turned out that this was what had happened.
Why does she never mention anything important to him?
Qin Chuan replied, "We found out that Gu Hanxi had transferred money to an account the day before the kidnapping when we looked into the people she had recently been in contact with. We followed this lead to find the people, but those two had already been imprisoned. It was Bo Siye who appeared and rescued his wife."
It's Bo Siye again. Why does he always show up whenever Han Xi encounters a problem?
Is it a coincidence, or was this person also involved?
Since his return, things have been happening around them. In the past, Shen Jiheng didn't think much of it, but after this incident, he felt that there were too many coincidences.
"Have someone investigate this Bo Siye, including everything that happened during his university years. I need to know."
Shen Jiheng had almost forgotten when their relationship started to become increasingly strained. Although there had clearly been no conflict, his hatred for him was quite deep.
Qin Chuan nodded: "Understood. The president should still try to appease the wife."
"You don't need to worry about that. You just need to find Gu Hanxi for me as soon as possible. Your efficiency this time has been very low!"
Shen Jiheng's words were full of dissatisfaction. In the past, when they needed to find someone, they would get news quickly, but several days had passed and they still hadn't found Gu Hanxi's hiding place.
Qin Chuan lowered his head in shame: "I'm sorry, President, it's my fault for not handling things well."
"Tell me, what obstacles have you encountered?"
Shen Jiheng also knew his competence; there must be someone obstructing him, which was why they hadn't been able to catch the person for so long.
Qin Chuan truthfully replied, "President, it's like this. We are subjected to a lot of interference every day. There are always people spreading rumors about Gu Hanxi behind our backs, and we only find out we've been deceived when our people arrive."
Upon hearing this, Shen Jiheng's cold eyes darkened. It was obvious that someone was secretly protecting Gu Hanxi and deliberately spreading rumors to confuse the public.
If he wasn't mistaken, this person was Gu Beichen.
