2390 Twins
Shen Mubei’s fingers trembled uncontrollably.
He had already forgotten the last time he lost control like this. On the way, he almost crashed into other cars several times. Fortunately, he always stopped in time, so he didn’t get into an accident.
Xiao Qing did not pick up his calls.
She was very tired, and her phone was on silent mode.
Although she said that she would explain it to her mother, she had not thought of an excuse at all. She did not know what to say to Shen Mubei or how to explain it to so many relatives and friends.
Although this matter was not her fault and she had no control over what happened to the baby, it still pressed down on her like a shadow.
As she packed her things, she said to the nurse, “I’m fine.”
“Alright. You have to rest well when you go back. Rest well for a few days. You’re still young, and you still have many chances to have children in the future. Don’t pressure yourself because of this matter. Look forward with your chin up.” The nurse was an elder, and her tone was very gentle.
“Thank you.” Xiao Qing smiled.
“Wait for your family to pick you up after you’re done packing. I’ll go to the other wards to take a look.”
The nurse left. Xiao Qing actually did not have much to pack, but her movements were very slow, so it took her a long time.
The door was suddenly pushed open forcefully. A figure swept in with a gust of wind, causing a wave of emotions in Xiao Qing’s heart.
She turned around and saw Shen Mubei striding over. His eyes were filled with ruthlessness, as if he wanted to devour her.
When she was done packing, Shen Mubei reached out and grabbed her arm. There was a mocking sneer on his lips. “Xiao Qing, why did you do this?”
Xiao Qing did not expect him to come over, but since he was already here, she could use this opportunity.
“Shen Mubei, you came at the right time. I was just about to tell you that something happened to the child. I’ve already undergone surgery to abort it.”
Xiao Qing’s calm attitude angered Shen Mubei. “Abort? That was our child. What right did you have to abort it?”
“I told you, it’s because there was a problem…”
“Xiao Qing!” Shen Mubei did not believe her at all. “Are you going to blame the child for your own decision? You don’t want to marry me so badly that you couldn’t even tolerate a child?”
His suspicion made Xiao Qing very angry. “Shen Mubei, the child was in my stomach. I had every right to treat it however I wanted! You have no right to criticize me! Since you don’t believe me, why come and ask me about it? Just trust whoever you want to trust!”
“Are you going to do this just because someone called me? Just what do you think of the child?” Shen Mubei suppressed his heavy anger.
Xiao Qing felt that she could no longer communicate with him. There was no trust between them. No, there was no relationship at all. How could they continue to be together?
It could only be said that the arrival of the child was a mistake, and the child’s departure was punishment enough.
Facing the angry man and seeing the ruthlessness and disappointment in his eyes, Xiao Qing said weakly, “Shen Mubei, since the child is gone, the foundation of our marriage is gone. Let everything between us end here. I’m sorry to have troubled your family for so long to prepare for the wedding. I’ll personally go over and apologize to Aunt.”
Hearing her words, Shen Mubei’s hand finally left her wrist. It slowly clenched into a fist.
His handsome and elegant features were covered in a layer of deep disappointment. He was enveloped in endless darkness, swallowing the only trace of light in his eyes.
“Xiao Qing, do you know what you’re talking about?” He suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Xiao Qing.
Xiao Qing mustered her courage and looked back at him. “Of course, I do. President Shen, if you’re still not sure, I can repeat what I said just now. The child you want is gone, and there’s no need for us to get married. So…”
“Alright! Very well, then!” Shen Mubei did not expect her to be so decisive and abort the child in order not to marry him. He was so angry that he laughed. His face was full of mockery. “So the wedding that we’ve been preparing for so long was just a joke.”
There was pain in his voice.
For a moment, Xiao Qing could not bear to see him like this.
However, her rationality quickly suppressed her emotions. At this time, what was the point of her doting and tolerating him?
If he was indecisive, he would only cause trouble.
“Just treat me as a vicious woman. There’s no loss for you if you don’t marry me. As for the child, you have a chance to get it with anyone. I’m not the only one who can bear you a child. There should be a lot of people who want to give birth to your child, right?” Xiao Qing pretended to be relaxed as a smile appeared on her face.
Shen Mubei gritted his teeth. The muscles on his face were twisting with anger and pain. “You’re right, Xiao Qing. You’re not the only one who knows how to give birth.”
With that, he turned around and left.
Xiao Qing’s footsteps were unsteady as she slid onto the bed. She panted heavily. The quarrel had hurt her spirit. The depression in her heart accumulated, and the pain was unbearable.
There were some words that hurt her and herself, but she had no choice but to say them. Only when she was in real pain would she truly forget.
Otherwise, she did not know how long she would have to stay in this vortex.
She really couldn’t stand it.
Perhaps it was fate that there was a problem with the child’s embryo development.
Her gaze subconsciously landed on the ground. It was only then that she realized that when Shen Mubei left, a brocade box had fallen out of his pocket. She picked it up, thought for a moment, and chased after him.
When Shen Mubei went out, his expression was stern. There was a sense of anger on him that made people stay away from him. Those who brushed past him were so frightened that they avoided him.
Zhao Xinshu came out wearing a mask to fetch water for her mother. Her mother’s accident was real.
However, it was not as serious as she made it out to be. It was not necessary for Shen Mubei to resolve it. She just wanted to use that opportunity to reconcile with him and find an opportunity to meet him.
However, he did not show up and even blocked her number. Even so, he still got his assistant to send over a check. It was a large check and enough for Zhao Xinshu to spend for a long time.
Zhao Xinshu was overjoyed. She knew in her heart that he definitely still doted on her. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have asked his assistant to step in.
However, reality hit her again.
The assistant told her that this was the last time. Shen Mubei could give her this sum of money this time to solve her urgent problem, but he would not give in to her unconditionally again and again.
