Chapter 12 The Iron Chain
Xu Zichen's brows were locked tight as he listened to the doctor's opinion.
"Miss Gu has taken too many doses of the Morning-After Pill. Implantation was already difficult. If you abort this time, it will be hard to want a child next time..."
The old doctor shook his head and sighed, trying hard to talk me into keeping the child.
The hand Xu Zichen used to sign hesitated in the end.
He took my hand and walked me out of the consult room.
"What are you doing?" I did not understand.
"Do you want to think it over? It is your own flesh and blood, after all."
"I would rather die than give birth to Feng Si's child."
My eyes were red. I spoke stubbornly.
"Then whose child do you want to have? Your old flame's?"
Feng Si's voice, razor-cold, rose quietly behind me.
My heart dropped to the bottom...
After we got home, Feng Si smashed everything in sight in fury.
Those eyes, burned red with anger, stared at me fiercely, like he would swallow me alive.
"You fucking betrayed me!"
He raised his hand and gave me a heavy slap. A rust taste spread in my mouth.
"If the director hadn't told me in time, you two adulterers would have killed my child together!"
"Since you don't cherish a good life, you will stay home honestly from now on. When the child is born safely, we will get married."
He was like a judge who allowed no argument, deciding my future with one light sentence.
"No! This is illegal detention!"
"You lunatic! Let me go!"
My emotions slipped. I accused him hysterically. Tears streamed down my face.
What answered me, though, was an Iron Chain on my foot, thick as a wrist.
