Chapter 155: You've gone through so much trouble, but the baby still didn't fall out
"Rest at home for two days first, and we'll talk about work later," he replied, looking at her deeply. "I've asked the doctor, and he said that cold symptoms can occur in early pregnancy. If you feel unwell, don't take any medicine rashly. Tell Sister Yu or me right away."
Ling Zhen was slightly startled by his caring attitude, but then he smiled calmly and replied, "Okay."
Tang Shuya was surprised by her obedience. He gave her a strange look before leaving. When he reached the door, he paused, turned around, and looked at her for a moment before softly warning her, "Ling Zhen, don't mess around."
She curved her eyes, smiled, and still responded with an "OK".
But I thought to myself, what a bullshit!
Tang Shuya didn't want to go to work today, but he was afraid that staying at home would disturb Ling Rui's rest.
When I returned to the company, I felt upset and couldn't even read a single punctuation mark among the pile of documents on my desk.
The more he read, the more dizzy he felt. This situation was really rare for him. He loosened his tie in frustration and sat for a moment with a sullen face. Then his cell phone rang. He saw the caller ID and frowned. "What's wrong?"
Sister Yu's anxious voice came from the other end of the line, "Mr. Tang, this is bad! Miss Ling has fainted!"
Unexpectedly, just a few hours after being discharged from the hospital, Ling Zhen was admitted to the hospital again.
Tang Shuya had already learned what had happened on the way. When he arrived at the hospital, Ling Zhen was lying on the hospital bed. Her long eyelashes were the color of a young crow, her lips, which used to be bright and plump, were a little dry, and her face was as pale as paper.
He felt as if something was blocking his throat, which was uncomfortable and painful. He paused for a long time before speaking, his voice trembling slightly.
"Ling Zhen, I know you're awake. Are you disappointed? After all your trouble, you still didn't lose the baby."
He actually wanted to say something caring, but when he thought about Ling Zhen jumping around in the bedroom as soon as he left, and even doing a dozen burpees, which was not enough, she even used the corner of the table to poke her belly. No matter whether it was useful or not, she just did it in a dangerous way, with the purpose of getting a miscarriage.
He couldn't control his mouth.
She said nothing, turned her head away, closed her eyes gently and didn't look at him.
Tang Shuya reached out to touch her lower abdomen, which made Ling Zhen flinch. He paused and just placed his hand there, stroking it carefully.
"Ling Zhen, don't you like children? I know you like children, so why don't you want him? You've heard that every child chooses their own mother. Among millions of people, he chose you to be his mother, but you don't want him."
Every word he spoke was filled with bewitching tenderness.
Ling Zhen suddenly opened his eyes and looked straight at him. His clear eyes seemed to be igniting two clusters of ghostly fire.
"Tang Shuya, I will never give birth to a illegitimate child for you."
Tang Shuya froze for a moment. The three words "illegitimate child" were like an extremely sharp blade cutting Tang Shuya's heart.
A voice as cold as fresh snow echoed among the patients. "I won't be in the light, and neither will my child. I'll hide in some villa, waiting for your wife to come and humiliate and curse us. Tang Shuya, do you want to torture me like this? You keep talking about your child, but have you ever really thought about him? You're the one who's truly hurting him, because from head to toe, you've only treated this child as a tool!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw his hand, which was pinching the frame of his glasses, suddenly stop.
She thought he was persuaded by her. What Tang Shuya could think of, Ling Zhen might not be unable to think of. After having a child, even if she and Tang Shuya had no relationship at all, he was the father of the child after all.
It's not that she doesn't like children,
But she couldn't have it.
That’s right, it’s not that I don’t want to, but that I can’t.
If she keeps this child, she will be entangled with Tang Shuya for the rest of her life.
His face suddenly darkened, his eyes met hers with indifference, his cheeks twitching slightly, and his voice was filled with a hint of anger, "What do you want me to do in order for you to keep this child?"
She was silent, then suddenly chuckled softly, "Marry me, and I'll keep the child."
She knew that it was impossible for him to marry her, but she still proposed marriage on purpose. She wanted him to give up and understand what it felt like to force someone to do something against his will.
A few seconds later, the joints of his fair, slender hands bulged, and his deep eyes were filled with indistinct meaning.
He had a feeling of powerlessness and loss of control. Who was in the belly of someone else?
A surge of anger and restlessness continued to rise in his heart. He wanted to smoke a cigarette and his hand had already reached into his suit pocket, but he hesitated at the moment of grabbing it.
In the end, I didn’t take it out.
He had waited for so long and had carefully planned to make her pregnant. There was no way he would let her abort the child so easily.
Tang Shuya looked at her twice, pulled up the corners of his lips and smiled, then reached out and pinched her earlobe, "Okay. Isn't it just getting married?"
Ling Zhen stared at him with eyes wide open, his breathing stopped. He clenched his fists tightly, his fingertips digging into the tender flesh of his palms.
"Did you hear what I was saying?"
This was totally beyond her expectations.
He raised his eyebrows and leaned closer. His long eyelashes were covered with dense shadows, and his deep eyes were brighter.
"Listen carefully, you want me to marry you."
"I'm talking about getting a marriage certificate, the kind that's above board."
Ling Zhen watched him get closer and put his arm around her waist. She leaned back slightly, resting her hands on his chest, "Tang Shuya..."
Normally she would only call him by his full name when she was angry, but this time it was out of panic.
"I know, we'll get married." His gentle, handsome face was so close that when she looked up, her lips could touch his chin. The warmth in his words fell on her skin, and he said solemnly, "A-Zhu, I don't really want to marry those women at all. But I am willing to marry you."
Marry who is not married.
In fact, Tang Shuya did not think that he needed a marriage alliance to survive. Even after the marriage, there were cases where they would check and balance each other and fight for the family property, resulting in mutual losses.
In addition to children, using marriage to tie Ling Zhen down is also a way.
Why hadn't he thought of this before?
Ling Zhen, however, glared at him with disdain in his eyes and asked, "Can you marry me? Are you sure your grandfather would let you marry me?"
Tang Shuya was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "I'll tell Grandpa about this."
She looked at him teasingly and said, "Don't kid yourself. The Tang family won't let me in."
Ling Zhen is getting smarter, which is not a good thing. He is not as easy to fool as before.
But now, he was very willing to coax her.
