Chapter 1258 - 1181: Reality Is Too Cruel
Chapter 1258 - 1181: Reality Is Too Cruel
What is Song Yansheng worried about? Nothing more than worrying about Shi Nuan being too hard on herself.
In the past, Song Yansheng occasionally thought, if he hadn’t met Shi Nuan, he would probably want to meet a woman he liked.
If he couldn’t meet one, he’d probably find a woman he didn’t dislike, one that his mother would be satisfied with.
Like Chu Jingyun.
As for that woman, he didn’t have many demands, but his mother certainly did.
And if he didn’t particularly like her, his mother’s demands would become his own.
So aside from his mother’s demands, would he marry a woman who was good-for-nothing and did nothing?
Probably not, not because he was picky, but because he felt that if women were too idle, they tended to meddle too much in men’s affairs.
And he didn’t like to be shackled in that way.
But encountering Shi Nuan, his thoughts were almost entirely overturned.
He didn’t want the little girl to be tired, and hoped she’d pay more attention to him, even if it meant controlling him.
In his heart, that was also a kind of happiness.
But the little girl was not that kind of woman.
It’s somewhat amusing, but perhaps life can’t be completely perfect!
He possessed Shi Nuan, living such a warm and happy life with her, was already a kind of happiness.
Very happy indeed.
...
When Shi Nuan left the hospital, her complexion was even paler than when she went in.
One hand reached towards her abdomen, her whole body was swaying, and she bumped into people several times on the road.
When she walked out of the hospital, she lifted her head in a daze to look at the sky.
Clearly, the sky was so blue, and the sun was so big, yet she felt cold all over.
Very cold, very cold.
The phone in her pocket rang, ringing for a long time, her eyes trembling as she picked it up to check.
Seeing the phone display read: "Dad..."
She paused a moment, as if a knife was suddenly plunged into her heart, causing her to shiver all over.
She pressed the answer button and weakly uttered "Hello" to the person on the other end.
She was trying to control her emotions.
Shi Yuanbo’s voice quickly came through: "Nuannuan? I heard from someone that this afternoon you left using Jiaojiao’s car? Why is Jiaojiao looking for you at this time? Has she been causing you trouble again? Or did she tell you... tell you something?"
Shi Nuan’s eyes appeared vacant for a moment, then she said: "Dad, what do you think she would tell me?"
Shi Yuanbo pursed his lips and said: "Nuannuan, no matter what she said to you, you just ignore it. From now on, if she looks for you, you don’t have to pay attention. Right now, you just need to take good care of your health, and then work hard. Dad is counting on you for the future of the Shi Family!"
"Is that so?" Shi Nuan’s voice was chilly as she said: "Why is Dad being so nice to me now?"
Shi Yuanbo paused for a moment, then said: "You’re Dad’s daughter, Dad being nice to you is the right thing to do. Among my three children, you are the one who worries Dad the least. If I continue to make mistakes as I did before, I would really be worse than a beast!"
"Worse than a beast..." Shi Nuan smiled faintly and said: "Then Dad thinks, what is it called when a father hides the matter of one daughter’s pregnancy and miscarriage to protect another daughter?"
Shi Yuanbo was stunned, holding his breath for a long time before he asked lowly: "Nuannuan you... you..."
"I know..." Shi Nuan lightly bit her lip, the pain in her heart at this time gathered into a force, rushing straight to her eyes, she said: "I found out..."
Shi Yuanbo suddenly didn’t know what to say.
Tears fell from Shi Nuan’s eyes in big droplets, the pain in her heart growing increasingly severe.
She said: "Dad, how can you be so cruel... how can you be so cruel?"
She fell into the water, causing her to miscarry, a child both she and Song Yansheng were eagerly looking forward to.
Only a month old, and its life was so forcibly taken away.
But they, as the child’s biological mother and father, had no idea.
And the one who hid all this was her biological father, who had just recently rekindled their relationship, sparking a bit of hope for familial love in her heart.
All to protect his other daughter!
Shi Nuan said: "Dad, that lost life was not only my child, but also your grandson, right? How can you do this, how can you?"
Over the phone, Shi Yuanbo’s mournful cries could be heard.
Shi Nuan seldom saw Shi Yuanbo cry, with such sudden tears, she should be deeply moved.
But having just learned she lost a child, a child that belonged to both her and Song Yansheng, she couldn’t be moved.
Her heart was only cold, only cold.
Shi Yuanbo said: "Nuannuan, Dad is sorry to you... truly sorry to you..."
"But... Dad really had no choice, Dad didn’t want you to be sad, and was afraid that if Song Yansheng knew, it would be bad for our Shi Family and the Shi Family business, Dad really... really had no choice!"
"Dad doesn’t want me to be sad, yet doesn’t realize, I was bound to find out about this anyway, Dad can hide it for a while, but not forever. If I find out later, won’t it be even sadder, even harder to bear? After all, not only have I lost a child by then, but also the trust I had in Dad, isn’t that so?"
Shi Yuanbo continued crying, repeatedly saying sorry, sorry, but what use is saying sorry?
Sorry won’t bring her child back, won’t return everything she lost, will it?
No, none at all!
Shi Nuan suddenly felt powerless, just clutching her abdomen and squatting down, then covering her mouth and sobbing uncontrollably.
Over the years, she had cried before, but aside from the deaths of her grandfather and mother, and Xiao Chuan’s departure months ago, never had she cried so heartbroken.
She felt her whole body lacked strength, even the sunlight shining on her felt cold.
She sought warmth, but there was none, her surroundings were incomparably cold.
Shi Nuan cried at the hospital entrance for a long time, she couldn’t recall how long.
Later, many things became blurry in her memory, and when she woke up again, she was in a hospital bed.
Sitting by the bed was Shi Yuanbo, whom she had just spoken to on the phone that afternoon.
Shi Yuanbo’s face looked forlorn, as if he had suddenly aged a lot, but at that moment, Shi Nuan didn’t want to see him.
She closed her eyes and turned her face away, indicating refusal.
Shi Yuanbo’s dry lips moved slightly, saying: "You fainted, someone nearby saw, at that moment I hadn’t hung up the phone yet and they informed me..."
Shi Nuan said nothing.
Shi Yuanbo said: "Nuannuan, Dad doesn’t ask for your forgiveness, Dad also thinks what I did was improper, so whatever you decide to do next, Dad won’t stop you. You can tell Song Yansheng, you can go find Jiaojiao... find Jiaojiao to settle scores, Dad will abide by you, as long as you feel a little better, Dad will abide by you!"
