"Wanyi!"
"Sis!"
"Honey!"
Everyone was in a panic. Lin Wanyi didn't care about anything else; she only had one thought in her mind: she could not keep this child. She couldn't.
He was not a child she looked forward to.
He was just the child Wang Hao wanted, the child the Wang family wanted.
He was not the child she, Lin Wanyi, wanted for herself.
She didn't want it. No matter what anyone said, she would not keep this baby.
But she didn't manage to crash into the table; the police officers stopped her.
They advised her:
"Your own life is the most important thing. Doing this will only hurt yourself.
"Miss, if you really don't want the child, go to a proper hospital."
Lin Wanyi cried her heart out in Li Suhua's arms.
"Mom, I just want a divorce. Why is it so hard?"
Li Suhua cried with her.
She actually wanted to scold Lin Wanyi a little, to scold her for insisting on marrying so far away from home, for not listening to them back then.
But she held back. She was also blaming herself for not stopping her back then, for letting her marry into this family anyway.
After all the blame, the one who deserved it the most wasn't them, but Wang Hao.
It was him who failed to keep his promises; it was him who hadn't cherished and protected Lin Wanyi.
It was him who made Lin Wanyi suffer so many grievances.
It was his fault. Yes, it was entirely his fault.
Lin Jiajun held Keke and shed tears as well.
If the police hadn't been holding him back, he really would have wanted to punch Wang Hao to death, and even more so, beat Liu Chunlan to death.
They were the ones who had been bullying his sister, causing her so much pain.
Liu Renzhi felt as if a wad of cotton was blocking his chest, suffocating him.
Wang Hao stood not far away, not daring to approach Lin Wanyi.
Only Liu Chunlan and Wang Meijuan were happy.
The two exchanged a glance, and Wang Meijuan spoke first:
"Mom, she can't leave now, right? What an idiot. Look how pathetic she is.
"I told you she was easy to deal with. As long as we control Wang Keke, we can manipulate her anytime."
"Hmph!"
Liu Chunlan swallowed hard:
"Does she think having her maiden family here makes her a big deal? I have plenty of ways to torture her."
Lin Wanyi cried until she passed out.
Wang Hao immediately tried to pick her up to take her to the hospital, but Lin Jiajun shoved him away.
"Get lost! Don't come near my sister. You're the one who reduced her to this state. You are never allowed to come near her again."
He picked up Lin Wanyi and walked away. Li Suhua took Wang Keke's hand and hurriedly followed.
Liu Renzhi quickly said,
"Come with me. I have a car. Let's get to the hospital immediately."
The Lin family followed Liu Renzhi, while Wang Hao shouted from behind:
"I have a car too! Lin Jiajun, I'm your brother-in-law. You should take my car."
No one paid him any attention. Liu Renzhi rushed Lin Wanyi to the hospital at top speed.
After examining her, the doctor told them:
"There are no major issues. She just got overly emotional, and she is a bit anemic.
"Once the patient wakes up, just make sure she gets some good nutrition.
"The critical thing is that she is pregnant. If she isn't careful, she might lose the baby."
Li Suhua's heart ached terribly.
Anemia. It was obvious this was caused by not eating well recently.
She grasped Lin Wanyi's hands, tears falling steadily:
"My silly girl, why are you so foolish? If something was wrong, you should have told Mom. Why did you endure it all alone?
"Why?"
Lin Jiajun was furious. He said,
"Mom, why don't we just take this opportunity to get rid of the baby?
"My sister wouldn't want it anyway."
Li Suhua wanted to as well, but Lin Wanyi was the mother. Without her consent, the doctor wouldn't perform the surgery.
There was no other way; they had to wait.
In the stairwell, Liu Renzhi handed Lin Jiajun a cigarette.
Lin Jiajun felt a bit awkward:
"Brother, I'm really sorry. I deleted your WeChat before returning that 120,000 yuan to you.
"Do you also think I'm just like the people from Wang Family Village?"
He took a deep drag of the cigarette:
"Actually, there's not much difference. I just need the money. I'm really short on money.
"I was supposed to get married before the new year. I even bought the marital home and was getting ready to renovate it.
"Who knew my dad would pass away suddenly? The wedding was delayed, and the renovations were put on hold.
"Now, with your money, I can finally continue renovating the house.
"Brother Liu, just consider me a greedy person."
Liu Renzhi put out his cigarette:
"I understand what you mean. You took the 120,000 to give us peace of mind, right?
"But you don't know that, in our family's eyes, your help is worth far more than 120,000.
"Jiajun, over the past few days, I could actually tell that both you and your sister are having a hard time.
"If you need any help, just ask. I can truly help you a lot."
Lin Jiajun actually wanted to say that they really had a lot of troubles, but on second thought, he kept his mouth shut.
This was their private matter; others had no obligation to help them.
Liu Renzhi suddenly asked him:
"Your sister married far from home. Where is your hometown?"
"City A."
Lin Jiajun answered honestly.
"City A?"
Liu Renzhi was pleasantly surprised. "We are from City A too. I never expected us to be from the same hometown.
"Jiajun, don't be a stranger. Reach out to me anytime you need anything."
Liu Siyue, who was still in the hospital, heard that Lin Wanyi was sick and trotted over to her ward.
"Sister."
She threw herself onto her:
"Sister, look at me. I'm all better now. The doctor said I can be discharged anytime.
"Sister, let's add each other on WeChat. My brother said you deleted him. Why?
"I'm not lying to you, our family is really rich. My brother has several sports cars.
"My mom also said she wants to give you lots and lots of money."
Su Jing stood behind Liu Siyue and nodded:
"That's right, Miss Lin. May I call you Wanyi?
"Our whole family is truly grateful to you. Please don't feel any psychological burden."
After she finished speaking, she waved her hand behind her.
Several men in black suits suddenly walked into the ward, each carrying various high-end nutritional supplements.
Su Jing continued:
"I heard from the doctor that you aren't in good health. I didn't know what to get you, so I bought some supplements for now.
"Once you recover, I'll take you shopping.
"You can pick out whatever clothes, bags, or jewelry you want."
Lin Wanyi felt very apprehensive.
She quickly waved her hands:
"Auntie, please don't be so polite. I really didn't do much.
"I just felt sorry for Siyue. Auntie, I'm very ashamed. I let my brother accept the 120,000 that Brother Liu gave us.
"I really feel embarrassed about it."
Su Jing smiled:
"What does that little bit of money count for? Nothing is more precious than my daughter.
"Wanyi, Auntie sincerely thanks you!"
Lin Wanyi eventually accepted the gifts.
Li Suhua told her to accept them.
She asked Li Suhua, "Mom, these things aren't cheap. We already took 120,000, why should we accept these too?"
Li Suhua made her a cup of hot milk:
"Accepting these gives them peace of mind.
"My girl, don't think so much. You need to focus on your own health.
"As for this divorce, I don't think it's going to happen anytime soon.
"What do you think we should do next?"
Lin Wanyi was thinking about it too.
She still had to leave. She could afford to drag this out, but Lin Jiajun couldn't waste his time here with her.
He had to go back to make money. He still needed to get married. If it dragged on too long, his girlfriend would start having second thoughts.
Just as she was thinking this, the ward door was pushed open.
Liu Chunlan said in a sarcastic tone:
"Heh heh, go on, run away, you outsider trash.
"Let's see how you run while lying in a hospital bed!"
