Shi Xiaonian asked several people and they all said that they had not seen Gong Ou and had to go home. Her legs were sore after standing for a long time.
As soon as she returned, Gong Kui, who was skipping class, rushed out, ran towards her, hugged her legs, her whole face flushed with excitement, and her big eyes flickered at her, "Mom, grandma said You have a baby, I am so happy, where are you?"
"It will be a long time before the baby can meet you."
"How long? An hour? A day? Or a hundred days, a thousand days?" Gong Kui has no specific concept of time.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian was amused, squatted down, stretched out his hand to touch her little face, and then deliberately frowned and said, "Are you supposed to be in class at this time, and you actually ran out?"
Hearing this, Gong Kui stuck out her tongue at her playfully, "I'm going back to class now. If the baby comes, please call me, okay?"
Shi Xiaonian could only smile and nod, watching Gong Kui skip away.
Everyone in this family welcomes the arrival of this little baby, except Gong Ou. Maybe it's not that he doesn't welcome it, he just has other ideas.
Shi Xiaonian was ready to think about what to say and have a calm talk with Gong Ou, but she waited until the evening and didn't see Gong Ou during lunch.
Luo Qi also asked her, "Is Gong Ou too nervous? He actually ignored you when he heard that there was a child."
“…”
Who has ever seen a child so nervous that even the mother ignores it? Unless you don't want it. It's just that Luo Qi couldn't think of this.
Late at night, Shi Xiaonian stayed alone in her room, sitting at the end of the bed, holding the remote control in her hand and adjusting the channel boredly. Her attention was not on it at all. She kept listening to the movement at the door of the room.
But it was so quiet there, no sound at all.
An hour, another hour.
Gong Ou hasn't come back yet.
This is not like Gong Ou's style. He always doesn't like to escape when things happen, but today he avoided her for a whole day.
Thinking of what happened at the farm, Shi Xiaonian reorganized what she had been thinking about all day, and then walked out.
Gong Ou is in the study, the servant said so.
Shi Xiaonian walked towards the study, stretched out his hand to open the door and walked in. The huge study was empty, there was no one.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian was stunned for a few seconds. Didn't he say that Gong Ou was here
She looked around, and finally her eyes fell on the desk. It was a mess. A book was opened there. There were even books on the phone. The chairs were full of books, not to mention the floor.
The bookshelf was also in a mess, and many books were scattered there. It looked like they had been thrown down.
Don't you care about books so much
Did these books provoke him
Shi Xiaonian walked over, bent down to pick up a few books from the ground and folded them. Just as she was about to put them away, she saw a title that stunned her: "The Harm of Childbirth on a Woman." 》
Shi Xiaonian's heart was shocked. Sure enough, it was pretty much what she had guessed.
She walked to the desk and saw that the books spread out on it were all about the harm of pregnancy and childbirth to women, and the books on the chair were almost all about how to take care of women after miscarriage.
He was determined to let her abort the child.
If this was the reason, she would be even less willing to abort the child. Shi Xiaonian closed the books on the table and piled them aside. There was a lot of information underneath the books.
Shi Xiaonian was stunned for a moment, then picked up the materials. On them were some recorded conversations, and there was a small voice recorder beside it.
The style of this pen looks like it was from a few years ago.
When Shi Xiaonian picked up the pen and opened it, she heard a voice coming from inside that was neither unfamiliar nor familiar, "Mr. Gong, I am Miss Xi's attending doctor in Italy. Let me tell you about Miss Xi now." situation."
Miss Xi.
Now everyone calls her Mrs. Gong or Young Madam, and few people still call her Miss Xi.
Shi Xiaonian suddenly realized that the recording was from a long time ago. She didn't know how long ago. She just heard the voice continuing to sound and said, "When I was assigned to take care of Miss Xi, I found that her physical condition was very bad. The main reason was that she was overly worried and had great negative emotions caused by being imprisoned in one place for a long time. Miss Xi lost weight all the way after giving birth, and in the end she was no longer able to breastfeed her child normally and could only recuperate."
Shi Xiaonian stood there, listening to the doctor's voice blankly.
When did Gong Ou inquire about this
"Ms. Xi is a very strong person. Even though her body is so weak, her willpower is still very strong. This is the fundamental reason why she was able to survive later. I really admire her." The doctor's voice was recorded on the recorder. "As for the specifics, I can't tell you at the moment. One of the things that impressed me the most was that Miss Xi once had a high fever and her stomach suddenly hurt for some reason. We couldn't find the reason for the moment, so we could only worry."
“…”
"At that time, all of us were standing in the room, watching Miss Xi rolling on the bed and tossing and turning in pain. Her whole face was pale and there was no trace of blood. Seeing her like that, each of us felt very sorry for her. She was worried and Mrs. Xi even cried." The doctor said, "Later we found out that this was actually a problem that Ms. Xi had."
Heart disease.
Shi Xiaonian lowered her eyes slightly, and the doctor said, "We once thought that Miss Xi did not suffer from postpartum depression, but the period of imprisonment during her pregnancy still cast a shadow on her. She had a difficult pregnancy. Others felt a slight stretch and pain, but she was in excruciating pain, and no one worthy of her trust was with her at the time."
“…”
Shi Xiaonian pursed her lips.
"So our doctor later figured out that this was Miss Xi's heart problem. Once she felt pain in her stomach, the pain she felt mentally was a thousand times more painful. It was a pain that she couldn't bear. "The doctor sighed there, "A pregnant woman is prone to mood swings. In addition, after being imprisoned for so long and having a child snatched away from her, it's good that Miss Xi can be as strong as she is now. Just like her I was rolling on the ground in pain, but I never tried to give up my life."
Shi Xiaonian couldn't listen anymore, so she stopped the recorder and stood there blankly.
Is it because Gong Ou is listening to these recordings that he doesn't want her to give birth to this baby
"boom."
There was a sound of pushing the door open.
Shi Xiaonian turned around and saw Gong Ou standing at the door, holding a cup of coffee in his hand and wearing a windbreaker, with a tired face on his handsome face.
When he saw Shi Xiaonian, Gong Ou's black eyes deepened, and his eyes fell on the recorder in her hand.
"Is this why you don't want this baby?"
Shi Xiaonian held the recorder tightly and looked at him. She couldn't tell whether she was moved or sad, but it seemed like both.
It was obviously so long ago, but he still remembered it clearly.
"When did you come in?"
Gong Ou frowned, walked forward, put down the coffee cup, snatched the recorder from her hand and threw it into the drawer, then started to pack up the books on the table, closing them one by one.
Shi Xiaonian looked at him pretending to be busy and moved his lips, "Gong Ou, I want to keep this child."
Her voice was relatively calm, with just a hint of trembling.
“…”
Gong Ou's movements paused. The next second, he threw the book in his hand on the table and turned to look at her. There was a domineering look in his black eyes that no one could resist, "No!"
"I want to stay. Your previous reasons can't stop me, and this reason can't stop me." Shi Xiaonian looked at him particularly stubbornly and patted the book on the desk.
Gong Ou's eyes were filled with anger and he said to her, "Yes, this is my real reason. I just don't want you to have a baby. I just don't want you to experience that kind of pain again!"
Although he meant his words of concern, he yelled at her like they were arguing.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian pursed her lips and looked at him quietly.
"Have you forgotten how much you suffered during your last pregnancy and childbirth?" Gong Ou stared at her and said all the words, "Shi Xiaonian, have you forgotten all the scars that you healed? It hurts? It's going to happen again. What are you going to do? Will it hurt so much that you roll over on the bed again, hurt so much that you lose weight quickly, or hurt so much that you dig out marks on the edge of the bed with your nails?"
Hearing this, Shi Xiaonian looked at him blankly. It turned out that he really knew everything.
I just never said it in front of her.
No wonder when they talked about having another child, only Gong Ou almost never expressed his opinion. He didn't say anything, but what he meant was that he would never have another child.
"In short, I have the final say in this family, and I don't want this child! I'll have it aborted tomorrow!"
Gong Ou said decisively.
"I won't fight."
Shi Xiaonian suddenly didn't know what to say, so she only stubbornly said this sentence.
"Ha." Gong Ou sneered and looked at her as if she were a weakling. "Shi Xiaonian, why do you have to be stubborn with me? Can you beat me? When you walk out of this door, as long as I say a word, who will help you? you?"
Gong Ou's cruel words are always poisonous, so poisonous that you can't even refute him even if your heart is bleeding.
Listening to these words, Shi Xiaonian took a step back and laughed bitterly, "What are you trying to show off to me? Show off your power and power? Yes, as long as you say a word outside this door, no one will know it. Help you, everyone will listen to you, we are obviously husband and wife, why do I tell you as if I am just your accessory, am I, Shi Xiaonian, just a pendant on your body?"
Their union does not mean that they have a home, but that she enters his world and surrenders to his rule, right
Is this what he wants to express
Looking at the bitter smile on the corner of her lips, Gong Ou realized that his words were too serious, his eyes jumped, and his tone suddenly dropped, "I didn't mean that."
"No matter what you mean, I want to give birth to this child."
Shi Xiaonian said stubbornly. (To be continued)
