"You were already pregnant at the time, and as a result... you were soaking in the swimming pool, with drugs on your body, and the mental blow..." Tang Song didn't say anything else.
Qiqi's face turned paler than before.
Obviously, she was overwhelmed. She sat on the sofa with a deathly pale face and remained silent for a long time.
Her eyelashes were tightly closed. Even though she tried her best to control herself, her trembling could still be felt from the frequency of her trembling, indicating the strong fluctuations of her emotions.
At that time, she clearly remembered that she was pushed into the operating room... Afterwards, dark blood flowed out of her body. She had never thought about it, just thinking it was her menstrual period. No wonder Tang Jue took such good care of her body; no wonder he was so secretive every time he talked about the child.
turn out to be…
Her baby came, but she didn't even say goodbye...
She's a terrible mother.
"sister in law?"
"Qiqi?"
Tang Song called out twice before Qiqi came back to her senses.
She stood up and said, "I should go back..."
"I send you."
"No need." Qiqi's eyes were misty, but the corners of her lips still kept a smile. She didn't want to lose her composure in front of Tang Song. Before Tang Song could say anything more, she had already walked out of his office with her bag.
———
As soon as Qiqi left, Tang Song almost jumped up from the sofa immediately and quickly took out his cell phone to call Tang Jue.
Tang Jue was in a meeting over there, and it was Jian Qing who answered the phone.
When Jian Qing heard Young Master Tang say that it was about Qiqi, he naturally did not dare to neglect it. He knocked on the door and went in, interrupting the meeting.
"What's up?"
"Young Master Tang Song said he has something urgent to discuss with you." Jian Qing whispered. Tang Jue took a break and walked out of the meeting room with his phone.
"What's up?"
"Brother, um...promise me first that you will never lose your temper with me."
"uh-huh."
“…Sister-in-law, I know everything!”
"What did you say?!" Tang Jue's tone suddenly rose several degrees. The atmosphere was so low that Tang Song was trembling with fear.
"I really didn't mean it. She knew that the pill was a contraceptive, so she came to ask me. She thought you didn't love her enough. No, I thought you didn't want her child at all. Seeing how sad she was, I couldn't bear to let her have any wild thoughts! Brother, I really care about you!"
"I'll find the best tailor to sew your mouth shut!"
"Then you have to hurry, my flight is tonight!" Tang Song had not originally planned to leave, but now, it seems that he has to leave.
Tang Jue hung up the phone and told her secretary to drive downstairs while checking the positioning system on her phone. After that incident, Tang Jue installed a tracker on her phone just in case.

Qiqi actually didn’t go far, she was just near the hospital.
Tang Jue was on edge the whole way, worried that she would have a breakdown and that she would be unable to get over it.
She was a very fragile person, especially after losing everything, she already had an extremely insecure feeling. Tang Jue was afraid that the matter of the child would make her feel like everything was far away from her, and that she would become even more disheartened.
The more I thought about it, the more uneasy I felt. I drove faster and faster. My hands, gripping the steering wheel, turned pale with tension.
All the way, holding my breath, I drove to where she was.
This is a small amusement park not far from the hospital.
In the amusement park, the children are playing happily. They slide down the slide and jump on the trampoline. Under the autumn sunset, every child is full of energy and lively.
Tang Jue got out of the car and saw Qiqi standing alone outside the green fence of the amusement park from a distance. From his angle, he could only see her back.
Tang Jue felt distressed.
I guess at this moment, she is saddened by the scene and in tears.
He stood a few meters away, following her line of sight and looking at the children. His expression became softer than ever before.
The autumn wind blew, lifting her skirt.
Tang Jue took off his coat, walked over slowly, and gently put his coat on her shoulders from behind.
Qiqi, who was watching intently, was slightly startled. The familiar scent of jasmine blew over with the breeze, and she felt relieved all of a sudden. Turning around, she saw Tang Jue's face full of worry.
Tang Jue was surprised. Under the golden sunset, there were no tears on her clean little face.
The more this happened, the more worried he became. He would rather she let out her feelings by crying.
"Why are you here?" Qiqi spoke first.
Tang Jue didn't mention the child, but just touched her little face for a while before pretending to be relaxed and said, "Didn't you say you were going to meet your dad? So, I came to pick you up."
Qiqi raised her hand and held his hand. She put her hand into his. She was so calm as if nothing had happened. "Then let's go now. Let's go and see my dad and mom."
"I'm a little nervous." Tang Jue held her hand and said as they walked.
"What are you nervous about?"
"What if my father-in-law and mother-in-law are not satisfied with me?"
Qiqi and he held hands tightly.
She smiled, stepped back, and looked up at him infatuatedly, "Young Master of the Tang Clan, you are so handsome and charming, you are loved by everyone, who would not like you?"
Tang Jue looked at Qiqi deeply, his eyes showing complicated emotions. He could see the sadness beneath her smile. He wanted to protect her so much, to take her under his wings, to save her from fear and pain, but in the end... he still didn't take good care of her...
————
When the two came back from the cemetery, it was already dark. Qiqi was silent the whole time, not like before.
When she returned to the Tang Clan, even the housekeeper noticed something was wrong. She didn't eat much for dinner and went upstairs. This time, Tang Jue didn't force her.
night.
When he came out of the shower, Qiqi was already asleep on the bed. She was curled up in a lonely posture again.
Tang Jue lay down beside her, and she immediately let go of herself, turned around, and buried herself in his arms with love. She hugged his neck with both hands. After holding back her emotions for a whole day, she finally couldn't bear it anymore, buried her head in his shoulder, and cried.
Even when she cried, she was very obedient, not venting her feelings by howling loudly. She just endured and suppressed her tears, crying like a baby.
Even so, Tang Jue felt so distressed. He turned over, put her on the bed, and got up to go to the bathroom to get her a hot towel to apply to her eyes. Qiqi's eyes were red, and she pulled his pajamas sleeve, "...Where are you going?"
She asked in a sobbing voice, and looked at him pitifully with her eyes.
There was such reluctance and anxiety in her tone, as if she was afraid that once he left, he would be like those people who kept leaving her.
Tang Jue couldn't leave, not even for a second. He sighed and held her in his arms, "I'm not going anywhere. I'll just stay with you."
