Chapter 171 Miscarriage
Chapter 171 Miscarriage
”Zhiming, my stomach hurts!”Su Zhiming turned around and his eyes widened. Li Yuyan was on the floor with both hands over her stomach.
He knit his eyebrows together and stayed frozen in place.
”Zhiming. . .” Li Yuyan called as she scrunched her face up in pain.
Su Zhiming placed his hand onto the door handle but didn’t open the door for a long time. Should he go help? What if the kid was his? But what if it wasn’t?
He hated Li Yuyan, and was extremely mad at her right now, but he couldn’t help but think, what if the kid was indeed his?
In the end, Su Zhiming walked over and looked down at her.
”Zhiming. . . My stomach hurts a lot.”
Su Zhiming pulled out his phone and dialed the emergency line.
After a while, he said coldly, “The ambulance will be here soon.”
Li Yuyan gasped, “Zhiming, my stomach hurts a lot!”
Su Zhiming was getting frustrated, and he looked down at her. Suddenly, his eyes widened when he noticed the bright patch of red that stained her pajama pants.
He bent down slightly and looked more closely. There was indeed blood on her pants, and the stain was getting larger and larger.
Su Zhiming took a deep breath and finally lifted Li Yuyan up from the ground. He carried her down and a few minutes later, the ambulance arrived.
—
About two hours later, the emergency room opened and the doctor stepped out with a grave face.
Li Huiran immediately ran over, “Doctor, how is my daughter?!”
Bai Jiawei also stepped forward, “What about my grandson?”
The doctor sighed, “I’m sorry. The patient is fine, but the baby. . . doesn’t have a heartbeat.”
Li Huiran took a step back and Bai Jiawei fell down onto the chair. Meanwhile, Su Zhiming didn’t seem very sad from the news.
Li Huiran glared at him, “Su Zhiming! How can you be like this?! You just lost your baby and you don’t even care!”
Bai Jiawei also glared at him.
Su Zhiming stood up and placed both hands into his pockets, “I don’t even know if the baby is mine?”
Li Huiran jumped up, “Su Zhiming! How can you say that?!”
Su Zhiming scoffed and took out his phone. He had taken pictures of the images just in case Li Yuyan would destroy them. He would still need to use them if they were to reach the step of a divorce trial.
He showed it to Li Huiran and Bai Jiawei, and there was dead silence in the hospital hallway for several seconds.
”This. . .” Li Huiran’s eyes widened from surprise, because she didn’t know about this either.
Bai Jiawei gulped and his eyes turned red from anger.
Su Zhiming chuckled at their reactions, and he snatched his phone back.
”I will be sending the divorce papers to Li Yuyan very soon.”
Bai Jiawei quickly grabbed onto his wrist, “Su Zhiming! No!”
Su Zhiming turned around, “You expect me to still stay with your disgusting daughter after this?”
Bai Jiawei was also furious at Li Yuyan, but they cannot divorce now! The CEO competition was almost at an end, and if news spread of Li Yuyan’s divorce and her cheating on Su Zhiming, the shareholders would definitely pick He Xinyan!
There was no way that could happen! Bai Jiawei was completely against giving the company to He Xinyan now, and his only choice was Li Yuyan. Although he was also not very pleased with Li Yuyan, it was his only choice now.
”If you divorce her, I will destroy your company.” Bai Jiawei said, staring into Su Zhiming’s eyes.
The fear in Su Zhiming’s eyes was evident after hearing what Bai Jiawei said, and he knit his eyebrows together.
”You!” Su Zhiming knew that Bai Jiawei was completely capable of doing that. Although his company was getting bigger, it was still not a match for the He Corporation. Also, most of the money his company got in the beginning was from the He Corporation. He couldn’t. . .
Su Zhiming flung Bai Jiawei’s arm away and stomped off angrily.
He would definitely divorce Li Yuyan sooner or later!
—
The third round was postponed so Li Yuyan could recover before the competition resumed. To outsiders, they said that Li Yuyan accidentally got hurt, but the entire “He family” knew what really happened.
Su Zhiming moved out and refused to even visit Li Yuyan now, and Bai Jiawei was also very mad.
He Xinyan, meanwhile, was in a very good mood as she played around while waiting for the third round to start. She had only sent the images to Su Zhiming so he would be mad. She did not think that the result would be so severe!
However, He Xinyan didn’t feel bad. It would be very unfortunate for the baby if it were born into a family like this anyway. Plus, the baby would be an illegitimate child, just like Li Yuyan.
Maybe this was better. . .
— In the hospital
Li Huiran left to go get some food for Li Yuyan. It was the last day Li Yuyan would stay in the hospital, because they couldn’t postpone the third round any further.
After Li Huiran had left, Li Yuyan grabbed her phone and dialed a phone number.
It took almost half a minute before the other side finally picked up.
”Liu Wei!” Li Yuyan screamed. After their last meeting, she hadn’t contacted Liu Wei, and he also didn’t contact her. He had promised to help her and the third round was starting very soon!
”Are you going to help me? Have you contacted your company in Country Y yet?”
There were a few seconds of silence and then a chuckle, “Yuyan-ah, I heard you had a miscarriage?”
Li Yuyan’s eyes widened, “I. . . No. Where did you hear that from?”
”No need to lie to me.”
Li Yuyan took a deep breath and felt as her heartbeat sped up.
”Since the child is gone now, I think there is no reason for me to help you anymore, right?”
Li Yuyan’s eyes widened. No! This wasn’t part of the deal! She had slept with him! The deal had nothing to do with the baby!
”President Liu, how can you say that?! Our deal wasn’t like that!”
”President Liu, when are you going to come over?” A sweet and high-pitched female voice sounded from the other side of the phone.
Liu Wei moved the phone away, but Li Yuyan could still hear clearly.
”Be good, darling. I will be there soon. Wait for me!”
Li Yuyan’s face was pale as she felt her hand shake uncontrollably.
Liu Wei cleared his throat and spoke once again, “Li Yuyan, what happened between us was because of mutual consent. I did not promise you anything. . . Plus, you have no evidence either.”
Li Yuyan gulped, “President Liu! Liu Wei! Liu Wei!”
There was a beep, signifying that the other side had hung up, and Li Yuyan screamed in frustration.
She chucked her phone at the wall, causing a loud bang as it cracked and fell down onto the ground.
At this time, Li Huiran opened the door and walked in.
”Yuyan, what’s wrong? What happened?!”
Li Yuyan took a deep breath and tried to suppress her anger, “Nothing.”
It seemed like she would have to do it on her own now.
—
A few days later, He Xinyan and Li Yuyan both arrived at the airport.
Li Yuyan wasn’t fully recovered, but they couldn’t keep postponing the third round anymore.
Gu Yechen left work to accompany He Xinyan to the airport, and it took a long time before he finally let her go.
This would be the first time they are separated for so long, and Gu Yechen didn’t know if he could bear this separation.
After a few hours of the airplane ride, the competition began.
— Country X
Inside a beautiful and grand palace, a man was sitting inside his office.
The office was dim, and it was designed in a very royal and antique style.
The man had his eyes closed, and he was leaning back casually against his chair.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and he slowly blinked his eyes open.
”Come in.”
A man walked in and set several pictures onto the table.
”Mr. Yi, she arrived at Country X this morning. She will be staying for five days.”
Yi Qiansi casually looked through the photos and grinned, “Good. Keep an eye on her.”
—
After getting off the flight, the first thing He Xinyan did was call Gu Yechen.
She made it certain to him that she was all right before boarding a taxi to go to the warehouse.
The rest of the day passed by quickly as she got the basic information of the products and the rules. Finally, it was nighttime, and He Xinyan arrived at the hotel.
She ordered takeout and began to create her plan.
—
Li Yuyan had also arrived in Country Y, and she first visited the warehouse.
Her plan all along was to get help from Liu Wei, but who knew that he would not keep his promise! Li Yuyan was completely lost and didn’t know what to do.
So, she decided to just go to the streets and try to sell them to strangers.
What a great plan!
—
Four days had passed, and it was evident that He Xinyan was winning.
