Qi Taiguo could hardly believe his own ears. A miscarriage—how could that be possible? They had been taking contraceptive measures; how could Cheng Su be pregnant? And even if she was, how could she have had a miscarriage?
He must have heard wrong; the person lying inside couldn’t be Cheng Su; it couldn’t be her.
But with Hualing and Ning Ge both present, if it wasn’t her, who else could it be?
Qi Taiguo’s heart was terrified. Was it really, truly a miscarriage?
His legs were weak, his hands trembled, and his eyes stared fixedly at Ning Ge, the question almost squeezed out between his teeth, "Who had a miscarriage?"
"Big Brother Qi..." Ning Ge’s throat choked up, unable to utter another word.
How could he say it, how should he say it?
"Who is it, who’s inside?" Qi Taiguo stepped forward quickly, grabbed Ning Ge by the collar, and with bulging eyes, he demanded, "I’m asking you, who is lying inside there?"
Ning Ge’s eyes reddened, his head lowered, and after a long while, he only managed to say he was sorry.
With those words, what else was there for Qi Taiguo to not understand? The person inside was indeed Cheng Su.
His heart, held so high up, crashed to the ground in an instant, shattered into a thousand pieces.
She had indeed been pregnant. Carrying his and her child—was it not something he had actually been hoping for deep down?
But such an eagerly awaited child came by accident, and the news he heard brought not joy but fright, a nightmare!
How could this happen, how could it, he had only left for a twenty-some days, how could it have come to this?
"When I left, I asked you to look after her, to watch over your sister-in-law; how did you promise me? What is this now? Ning Ge, what are you!" Qi Taiguo swung his fist, aiming it at Ning Ge’s face.
Ning Ge, with reddened eyes, did not dodge or flinch; amidst shrieks, the blow stopped short at his cheek, landing on the wall beside his head instead.
