Chapter 135: Pregnant, yet forced to watch her own man surround another woman
Qin Yunshu came out of the emergency room and was sent to a general ward.
Although the wounds on her hands were severe, they had been discovered in time, and there was no danger to her life.
Lady Qin had cried until her eyes were swollen.
Cheng Wan did not care about Qin Yunshu's life or death, so she only stood in the ward for a moment before going out.
Behind her was Chu Li's sarcastic voice: "Are you satisfied now?"
Cheng Wan turned her head to look at him, her face showing no ripples.
Was he trying to blame her for Qin Yunshu's suicide?
"What does her suicide have to do with me?"
Seeing her indifferent appearance, Chu Li felt a chill in his heart.
Her cold-bloodedness and ruthlessness were even worse than he had imagined.
"She was hurt; you shouldn't have used Lin Qingya to provoke her." This was what Chu Li disapproved of the most.
At that time, what Qin Yunshu wanted most was for her fiancé to be by her side, but Cheng Wan had spoken of Lin Qingya to her face and even allowed Cheng Han to behave intimately with her.
How could Qin Yunshu endure that?
A surge of anger welled up in Cheng Wan's chest, jumping and churning, making her chest ache.
"I asked her in the ward at the time; she insisted that I say it to her face. If she couldn't accept it after I said it, is that my fault too?"
"She didn't know what you were going to say to Cheng Han," Chu Li said in a stern tone.
Cheng Wan pinched her palms, her gaze cold and faint.
"Chu Li, if you hadn't hidden the fact that Cheng Han took Lin Qingya away from the beginning, none of this would be happening now."
She turned her face away; her temper was too great, and her stomach felt somewhat uncomfortable.
"Cheng Wan, there were clearly gentler ways to solve the problem, but you were too impulsive."
Impulsiveness would only make things worse.
"And you haven't obtained Lin Qingya's whereabouts either, have you?"
Chu Li's tone was composed, his eyes filled with coldness.
Cheng Wan knew he was dissatisfied with her.
He believed she had hurt Qin Yunshu.
A sour, bitter feeling welled up, and Cheng Wan's eyes filled with a layer of moisture.
But she did not want him to see it.
With her back to him, she said in a very faint tone, "Not being able to find Qingya's whereabouts is my incompetence, but that doesn't mean I should just ignore it."
Her stomach felt increasingly uncomfortable, and layers of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Her legs were even trembling slightly.
"Chu Li, I don't feel well."
She gritted her teeth to endure the discomfort and turned around, wanting to find the child's father for help.
But behind her, there was no one.
Through the half-open ward door, she could see Chu Li standing by the hospital bed, leaning over and saying something to Qin Yunshu.
The half of his profile that came into view was extremely gentle.
A sarcastic smile appeared on her pale cheeks as Cheng Wan braced herself against the wall and walked out step by step.
Since Chu Li only had Qin Yunshu in his eyes and heart.
At this moment, her heart was as dead as ashes.
She did not want this child anymore.
When she reached the elevator entrance, she could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground.
Her body was getting colder and colder, as if something was slowly leaving this body.
The elevator door opened, and she dazedly wanted to stand up and leave, but her body could not muster any strength at all.
Vaguely, it seemed someone was anxiously calling her name.
When Cheng Wan woke up, she saw the IV drip above her head.
She subconsciously reached out to touch her lower abdomen.
The nurse was changing the medicine bottle, and seeing her wake up, she immediately said, "Don't worry, Miss Cheng, the child is perfectly fine."
Perfectly fine...
Cheng Wan let out a sigh of relief, yet she also felt a sense of loss.
She had not wanted this child originally, yet he had stayed in her womb so stubbornly.
The nurse reminded her again, "However, Tang Yisheng said that since you are pregnant, it is best to be mindful of your emotions and avoid extreme ups and downs; it is not good for your body or the child."
Cheng Wan looked at the man who had just entered, her tone somewhat cold, "You should tell these things to the child's father."
The nurse turned her head, saw Chu Li, and hurriedly lowered her head to leave.
Chu Li walked in, his gaze deep and resentful, "Why didn't you tell me when you weren't feeling well?"
Her face was pale to the point of transparency, and upon hearing this, a sarcastic smile appeared: "What should I have told you?"
"The child..."
"I told you yesterday, Chu Li, I am a pregnant woman."
But he did not remember.
If he had remembered, he would not have dragged her to the Yiyuan because of Qin Yunshu's suicide, and he would not have questioned her over and over again.
Chu Li did not speak.
Cheng Wan did not want to see him, so she shifted her gaze away and said coldly, "Chu Li, if you want the child to be born safely, stay away from me, and keep Qin Yunshu away from me too."
Chu Li's expression turned cold, his voice heavy with mockery, "Cheng Wan, you don't love this child that much either, do you? You went to the Perfume Conference while pregnant, and you've been worrying about Lin Qingya's affairs—one thing after another. Are you even a qualified mother?"
Cheng Wan sneered, "Then let's just get rid of it."
"You dare."
Cheng Wan only felt annoyed; Chu Li wanted it both ways.
"Get out."
Right now, the person she least wanted to see was Chu Li.
Chu Li no longer had the inclination to soften his stance, so he turned and left.
At the doorway, he ran into Cheng Han, who was preparing to enter.
Seeing his expression, Cheng Han knew he had likely quarreled with Cheng Wan again.
"If I hadn't happened to run into her at the elevator, both she and the child would have been in danger."
He advised Chu Li, finally adding, "If you truly don't love her, then separate."
Rather than tormenting each other, it would be better to let go.
A flash of coldness crossed Chu Li's eyes as he recalled the way Cheng Han had gently stroked Cheng Wan's hair.
He had never been that gentle with Qin Yunshu.
"The thing you should be worrying about is your own business with Yun Shu," he said, his tone carrying a hint of coldness.
Cheng Han leaned lazily against the doorframe, as if he hadn't heard the name Qin Yunshu.
"Chu Li, Cheng Wan is carrying your child; you should be taking better care of her instead of focusing your attention on another woman."
He was one step away from explicitly stating that Chu Li did not know what was important.
Chu Li narrowed his eyes and stared at Cheng Han, "Do you like Cheng Wan?"
Cheng Han was silent for a few seconds, his voice slightly hoarse, "You're overthinking it; I just think you've gone a bit too far."
"I feel quite sympathetic toward Cheng Wan—carrying a child, yet having to watch her own man hover around another woman."
Chu Li understood the sarcasm in his words.
He said expressionlessly, "If you and Yun Shu were to marry successfully, I wouldn't need to worry so much."
Cheng Han shrugged nonchalantly, "In the Cheng Family, I'm not the one who makes the decisions regarding my marriage."
He entered the hospital room to see Cheng Wan.
Cheng Wan felt a bit uneasy seeing Cheng Han, but Cheng Han was the savior of her and her child.
She expressed her gratitude, "Thank you for saving me and the child."
Cheng Han glanced at Chu Li, who had followed him in, and stood three steps away from the hospital bed.
"How is your body feeling?"
"Quite well."
In a hospital room not far away, Qin Yunshu gripped her quilt tightly, and a patch of red seeped through the white bandage on her wrist.
"Are they all in Cheng Wan's room?"
Lady Qin felt hatred toward Cheng Wan, "A vixen, always pretending to be weak."
Is it such a big deal just because she has a piece of flesh in her belly?
Thinking of the vixen, she remembered the one at home, and a fire burned even more intensely in her heart.
Qin Yunshu's face was pale, her lips trembled a few times, and tears slid down.
She had even attempted suicide.
Yet they were all hovering around Cheng Wan.
Lady Qin urged Qin Yunshu, "No matter what, your marriage to Cheng Han must happen."
Qin Yunshu liked Cheng Han, the Cheng Family had money, and Cheng Han was a young and promising talent.
Only by marrying into that family would she enjoy a life of happiness.
