399 Miscarriage

Lin Shiyu was bleeding.

How could there be so much blood?

Lu Qi'er froze for a moment before she quickly revealed a wicked smile. Was Lin Shiyu… pregnant? And now she had suffered a… miscarriage?

That was great! The heavens really were on her side after all!

Fu Qinglun still had his lips in Lin Shiyu's scented hair as he said, "Mrs Fu, shall we stop fighting already? Can't we lead our lives happily together from now on?"

Lin Shiyu's hands landed on his broad chest and she pushed him away. "Young Master Fu, I'm afraid that you'll push me out to take the bullets for Lu Qi'er next time if I agree."

Fu Qinglun let go of her and his pupils contracted, Lin Shiyu's beautiful face was covered in sweat and incredibly pale. She seemed feeble, like she was about to collapse and her skin was clammy and cold to the touch.

He felt as though someone had squeezed his heart tight, he hurriedly touched her face and asked anxiously, "What's wrong, are you hurt anywhere?"

Lin Shiyu felt herself bleeding down below, something was coming out of her stomach.

In an instant, she was slapped in the face with the cold realization of what had happened. The bad appetite over the past few weeks, the constant wanting to throw up, how she was always so tired. So it turned out… she was pregnant.

And now, she had a miscarriage.

She had never planned on getting pregnant, she simply wasn't ready to become a mother. But… now her heart felt like it was torn into a million shreds. Her baby… Her baby was gone, just like that.

She hadn't even had a chance to realize, until it was too late. It was only until the last moments of its life that she realized.

Baby, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry I could never meet you.

I'm so sorry.

Tears welled up in Lin Shiyu's eyes and started streaming down her face.

She cried.

She was actually crying.

Fu Qinglun's facial muscles tensed up and he was caught off guard. Even after knowing her for such a long time, even when he took away her 'Legend', when he raped her on their wedding night, when he pushed her out to exchange for Lu Qi'er's safety… Even then, she had never cried.

He had assumed that she wasn't someone who would cry.

That was his first time ever seeing her cry.

The bullet was deep inside his right arm and he couldn't lift it up. He could only use his left hand to wipe her tears away, but she just couldn't stop crying. Her tears were warm and it scalded his palm.

"What's wrong? Why are you crying? Tell me."

He couldn't stand watching her cry.

He couldn't stand it at all.

Lin Shiyu lifted her teary eyes and looked at him. "Fu Qinglun, did you do something to the birth control pills?"

Fu Qinglun froze, how did she find out?

"I…"

"Fu Qinglun, there's something you should know. There was actually one moment when I liked you."

I liked you.

Her words seared into his brain. What did she just say? She said… she liked him.

Her words were too sudden and he didn't know how to react. His gaze turned passionate.

"Shi'shi…" He called her name gently.

"However," Lin Shiyu interrupted his words, "That was in the past. Now, I don't like you anymore. And in the future, I won't like you either. I will never, ever like you."

Fu Qinglun was on an emotional roller coaster, he grabbed her waist and pulled her into his arms. "Shi'shi, I won't allow it, I don't allow it!"

Lin Shiyu's body went soft in his arms.

It was only then that Fu Qinglun realized her abnormality, he felt something wet on his trousers and furrowed his brows. Lowering his eyes, he realized her skirt fully soaked with blood.

He sucked in a cold breath and froze.

The genius in him realized on a subconscious level what was going on. Memories of her discomfort over the past few weeks flashed through his mind. She had been constantly nauseous, loved sleeping and also craved for hawthorn all of a sudden.

He remembered a conversation when he overheard his mother speaking with a few other women. She was a fan of sour foods when she was pregnant with him, especially hawthorns.

His eyes were instantly bloodshot, his gaze riveted to her tiny face, he rasped, "Are you… pregnant?"

Lin Shiyu raised a corner of her mouth, replying sarcastically, "You should know best whether I'm really pregnant."

After all, he had tampered with the birth control pill.

Lin Shiyu shut her eyes, wanting the nightmare to be over. "Fu Qinglun, we've reached a dead end. Please just let me go. Let's get a divorce."

Fu Qinglun eyes were bloodshot and since his right arm was injured, he could only bend down and carry her onto his shoulder. "Shh, don't talk. Shi'shi, I'll send you to the hospital now!"

…

The Maybach sped away.

"Qinglun! Qinglun, hold on, I'm still here! Take me away from this place!" Lu Qi'er shrieked hysterically when she realized she was abandoned in the wild and Fu Qinglun hadn't even bothered to cast a gaze over at her.

He had forgotten all about her.

She couldn't believe it. If Fu Qinglun's love towards Lin Shiyu wasn't obvious at the start, it was clear that he had feelings for her now. Somehow, he had fallen in love with her.

Between her and Lin Shiyu, she had been reduced to an invisible presence.

Lu Qi'er dug her nails deep into her palms, feeling a dark resentment brooding within.

…

The Maybach sped along the streets at the greatest speed possible, it was almost like a jet.

"Oh god, who is that? Is the driver a maniac? He's driving so quickly, isn't he afraid of getting into an accident?" The passers-by were shocked.

…

In the hospital.

Fu Qinglun carried the unconscious Lin Shiyu and rushed into the hospital. He exclaimed with his eyes bloodshot, "Doctor! Doctor!"

He was covered in blood and Lin Shiyu's skirt was also soaked. It was the worst moment in Karghalik's most dignified man's life. He rushed along the corridor, desperately trying to find a doctor.

The only thing he could do was to find a doctor.

Other than that, he didn't know what else he could do.

A doctor and nurse rushed over. "Young Master Fu, what happened to Mrs Fu? Place her here."

Fu Qinglun placed Lin Shiyu carefully on the stretcher and held the doctor by his collar. "She had a miscarriage, she had a miscarriage! You'd better make sure she is safe and sound. Make sure that nothing happens to her! Or your life is on the line!"

He grimaced in pain and couldn't stop muttering about her safety. He was like a madman and the doctor broke out in cold sweat. "I've got it, Young Master Fu. I'll perform the surgery on her now. Please let go of me."

A few nurses rushed over and pulled Fu Qinglun away. "Young Master Fu, please gain a sense of rationality and behave appropriately."

Fu Qinglun slowly loosened his grip on the man and the doctor promptly pushed the stretcher into the operating theater. Bam! The red light outside the operating theater signalled the start of the operation.

Shi'shi…

Fu Qinglun stood along the corridor while waiting. He hadn't known she was pregnant at all. They had lost their baby. Their first baby was gone, just like that.

His tall figure slid against the wall, collapsing to the ground and raked his fingers through his hair in agony.

How did they even lose their baby?

Their baby…
