At the hospital in Midnight City.
Tong Xinnuan, who had just completed the abortion operation, held the wall of the corridor with one hand and held the document tightly with the other hand. She struggled to walk to the lonely and indifferent man at the end of the corridor.
Her husband, Lu Shen.
With every step she took, his heart, which had once been in love with her, became a little colder.
Standing still, Tong Xinnuan raised her head slightly, and her wet hair stuck to her face. Under the white lamp, she was like a female ghost, with a pair of empty black eyes full of tears. She was sad and seemed to be begging.
"Lu Shen, this is the surgical report signed by the doctor. The child is gone as you wish. Can you let go of my father? He really didn't ask someone to kidnap Shen Xilu and her child. I beg you. Can't you believe me once?"
She reached out to grab Lu Shen's hand, but he dodged her disgustedly.
Lu Shen stood in the shadow by the window, with a cigarette between bright and dark between his slender fingers. The smoke covered his handsome face, making him look gloomy and cold.
Under the light, the tall figure, wrapped in frost, slowly approached the child's heart. He raised her chin with his cigarette between his fingers. The ash fell down and burned her heart, which was painful and numb.
"Child's heart is warm. Is this what you look like when you ask for help?" His voice was low and his amber eyes were cold.
Looking at Lu Shen, Tong Xin trembled and held his hand. The cigarette was hot in her hand, but it couldn't compare with the pain of her child being taken away from her body. It couldn't compare with her love for five years, but it couldn't compare with Shen Xi's slander despair.
She cried, knelt down, and choked with sobs. "Lu Shen, I beg you, can you please? Let go of my father! I beg you to believe that my father didn't hurt Shen Xilu. I didn't lie to you! I never lied to you! Why don't you believe me?"
"Xilu, when you begged your father not to hurt her and her child, did your father hear that? So... Tong Xinnuan, how can you be worthy of pregnant with my child? Your child is only worthy of being buried with my and Xilu's children. Remember, you must repay Xilu for the rest of your life."
Her cold tone and sharp words deeply pierced into Tong Xin's heart.
She thought that if she loved a man for five years, she would definitely be able to change his heart. It turned out that his heart was not too hard, but only softhearted to Shen Xilu.
Shen Xilu was the moonlight in Lu Shen's heart. She had disappeared for five years, but on the first day of her marriage with Lu Shen, she brought back a little boy who looked like Lu Shen. She cried about how her father forced her to get pregnant five years ago and asked her to replace him.
No matter how Tong Xin explained it, there was only Shen Xilu in Lu Shen's eyes.
Then, Shen Xilu and the child were kidnapped.
When she found Shen Xilu, she and the child were tied to a stone and thrown into the sea.
The child was dead.
The kidnappers and Shen Xilu accused Tong Xinnuan's father at the same time, and her father was locked up directly.
Lu Shen didn't allow her to visit him. She still didn't know if her father was well.
"Lu Shen, I'll pay you back! I'll pay back everything! My father is in poor health, and he really can't stand it. Let me replace him, okay?" Tong Xinnuan's voice was hoarse, and the coldness of her knees climbed all over her body like vines, constraining her, making her as humble as dust.
Lu Shen looked down at her with his fingertip bit by bit into her chin. As the blood dripped down, there was nothing but hatred and disgust in his eyes.
"Lu Shen."
A soft voice sounded, and Shen Xilu, who was dressed in sick clothes, came over. She looked at Lu Shen sadly with a gentle and beautiful face as beautiful as the moon.
Lu Shen allowed the child to kneel on the ground, and his eyes softened. He took off his dark coat and put it on Shen Xilu's shoulder.
"It's cold outside." He said lightly, but it was not cold at all.
Shen Xilu walked up to Tong Xinnuan and lowered her eyes. Two lines of tears fell. She reached out to hold Tong Xinnuan's hands.
"Xin Nuan, you'd better tell the truth, or your father will..."
Shen Xilu spoke hesitantly, but there was a hint of threat in her seemingly weak eyes.
Tong Xinnuan's hands were trembling. She couldn't let anything happen to her father!
"It's me! It's me who forced my father to hurt you and your mother! It's me! Shen Xilu, let go of my father!"
"Xin Nuan, how could you hurt me like this? But... I'm sorry. The police called to tell me that your father committed suicide for fear of guilt," Shen Xi said sadly.
It was said that the child's heart was so warm that there was no trace of blood in it. She couldn't stop trembling, and the pain in her abdomen was like a piece of meat. She shook her head hard.
"No, no, my father said that he would definitely come out to accompany me."
"Xin Nuan, don't be like this." Shen Xilu hugged Tong Xin with tears welling up in her eyes. However, she said softly, "Because I told him that if he didn't confess, both you and the child in your belly would die. In the end, he died for you. What a pity."
Tong Xinnuan's pupils contracted, and her tears hung from the corners of her eyes. She was so uncomfortable that she felt suffocated, but she didn't know how to cry. She pushed Shen Xilu away hard.
"You lied to me! You killed my father!"
Shen Xishu lay on the ground, with tears in her eyes. She lowered her head but said nothing, full of grievance.
Tong Xinnuan was crazy. She wanted to rush up and grab Shen Xilu, but she was suddenly slapped to the ground.
"It's dirty." Lu Shen picked up Shen Xilu and turned to leave. With his back to Tong Xin, he said coldly, "Since you have admitted your guilt, you will pay back the rest of the debt."
Shen Xilu leaned against Lu Shen's shoulder and smiled as she looked at the child's warm heart.
Tong Xinnuan looked at the departing figure, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Dad! Lu Shen doesn't want me anymore. Don't leave me, Dad..."
