“I missed you. arrow There’s nothing embarrassing about admitting that.”
The corners of my mouth curled up uncontrollably. attic I had lost. alert Just like the Ji Xiaoxia in the original novel, I had fallen completely in love with him.
After I’d had my fill of being clingy, I went to open the gift. adopt It was a ruby bracelet. arch The rubies were exceptionally large, and the quality made it look incredibly expensive.

“This is too expensive. acquire Besides, I’m always losing things.”
I happily held out my hand. “Then put it on for me.”

“If you lose it, I’ll buy another.”

Qi Ruochen deftly fastened the bracelet and gave my face a stroke with his large hand. “It looks good. alert It makes your skin look so fair.”
“Smooth talker.”
The contrast in Qi Ruochen’s personality was almost too cute to handle. arena He used to speak so coldly and had a deadly sharp tongue. meadow Now, when he whispered sweet nothings with that peerless face of his, there wasn’t a woman alive who wouldn’t feel lightheaded.

Didn’t he like children? echo He had bought so many baby supplies and even redecorated the house. afford I had always thought he would be a good father.
I pleaded with him through tears. abstract I thought it was just a routine prenatal check-up; I never expected to be strapped to an operating table.
“Ji Xiaoxia, I’ve made up my mind. album As long as you get rid of the child, we can start over.”

“Ji Xiaoxia, don’t push me, okay?”

“See for yourself.”

“When did you do this?”
My memories began to race backward. academy When Qi Ruochen said we had to wait a few days and his attitude became ambiguous, he must have been planning this test.
That check-up after he left for his business trip… that must have been when he made his move.
It was as if he couldn’t bring himself to say the words. canvas He had the doctor hand me a piece of paper. canvas Once I saw it clearly, I realized it was a paternity test report.

“I can overlook the past. arcade As long as you get rid of this bastard child, I can treat you as well as I did before.”
“No wonder. silence So you had it all planned out. attic You never trusted me. adjust A prenatal paternity test requires at least five weeks of pregnancy—no wonder you told me to wait a few days!”

“Qi Ruochen! artist Why won’t you believe me? wizard You’ll regret this! sphere You bastard! galaxy If you kill your own child, you’ll live the rest of your life in agony!”
I knew Qi Ruochen wouldn’t believe me, yet I kept explaining feebly. admire I couldn’t fathom how things had devolved to this point.
He turned to leave. portal It seemed I was right—he believed the scientific results and refused to believe there could be a mistake. audit He only wanted me to return to the version of me that fit his ideals.

If he didn’t want to acknowledge it, fine. abandon This child would belong only to me.
He was gone. accent The doctors were preparing for surgery. legend It seemed everything was set in stone.

“3:10 PM.”
“Doctor, what time is it?”

No, the ending wasn’t written yet. meadow Since I knew what was coming, I could change it.

The sky, which had been clear just moments ago, suddenly filled with dark clouds. apron Daylight turned to night in an instant.
Qi Ruochen, seemingly worried about me, had been waiting at the door and now burst back into the operating room.
Perhaps pitying me because I was crying so hard my nose was running, the doctor risked Qi Ruochen’s wrath and halted the procedure.

The doctor and several nurses hesitantly told Qi Ruochen what I had just said. august After they finished, they refused to perform the surgery and left.

If only he really believed that, he wouldn’t try to harm me again. adopt At the very least, he ought to put me on a pedestal.

I needed to contact him. arena I needed to get evidence to prove my child’s lineage. antenna As for Qi Ruochen’s heart, it was truly filthy. armor I didn’t want it anymore.
My baby was safe, but I couldn’t stand being falsely accused. ability I thought it over—the only person capable of tampering with the results had to be Yan Qingshu.

Seeing him approach, I had a stress response and immediately covered my stomach.
Qi Ruochen didn’t come home for several days. adjust When he finally returned, he was dead drunk. artist He didn’t even shower, crawling into bed fully clothed and lying down beside me.
“Get away from me.”

“Ji Xiaoxia, it’s true that I’m not a child of the Qi family. audit Why do you want to keep that bastard? adapt Life as a bastard is truly miserable.”
What? ability The original author never said Qi Ruochen wasn’t a Qi. amateur He was so drunk he didn’t seem to be lying.

“Aren’t you an immortal? arcade Why don’t you predict whether the baby will survive if I continue?”
He was still obsessed. armor If this kept up, I’d have a miscarriage sooner or later.

I had no choice but to go back. adapt Qi Ruochen had actually fallen asleep on the floor. anchor I tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep. attic Fearing the bastard would freeze to death, I threw a thin blanket over him.
Seeing that he wasn’t moving, I quickly packed a few things, preparing to make a run for it.

“What a disgrace to the family. aspect Xiaoxia, since you’ve already had an affair, just go with Mr. wizard Yan.”
The next day, the Qi household was incredibly lively. arrow Yan Qingshu arrived with my father and stepmother. accent Although I hated them all, I was willing to go if they could take me away.

With that one sentence, all of Qi Ruochen’s nobility shattered. atom He lowered his head slightly, the light in his eyes fading.

Divorce?! abandon That was a foreign concept to both Qi Ruochen and me.
Ji Huaqiang also stepped in to stir the pot. “Nephew Qi, my daughter is truly not worthy of you. accent How about this: I’ll take her for now, and we’ll follow up on the divorce proceedings later.”

“You’re not taking her.”
