The Problem with Marrying Rich: Out of the Way, Ex

If her words at the cafe made him feel cold, then at this point in time, his heart was completely frozen. It was so cold that there was no trace of hope in his heart at all.

He heaved a long sigh and his black eyes suddenly dimmed as though it has lost all its light.

The doctor didn’t recognize him and thus waved him off in annoyance.

“Please leave. I have to see the next patient.”

Then, the doctor opened the door to the consultation room and prepared to call for the next patient.

Mo Yixuan quickly rushed up to take the doctor’s hand.

“Doctor, wait a minute. I have a question.”

“What’d you like to ask?” The doctor frowned in irritation. She felt that this man seemed a little demented and really wanted to shove him out of the door.

“If she aborts this child, would she still be able to get pregnant later on?” Mo Yixuan stared anxiously at the doctor, as though he would resort to extreme measures if the doctor ignored him.

The doctor became even more irritated. She pushed his hands off her and said coldly, “Her constitution isn’t that great and her pregnancy is already very risky. She had to seek medical treatment in order to keep this child, so who knows if she’d be able to become pregnant again in the future. However, since she’s already three months pregnant, it would a pity to abort the child and it would also be very harmful to the mother.”

Then, the doctor took her cup and left the consultation ward. She couldn’t be bothered to entertain this strange man any longer.

The doctor’s words were like salt on his wound that had already cracked opened. He walked out of the consultation ward in a daze as though all his energy had been sapped out of him. Then, he fell onto one of the chairs along the corridor and closed his eyes in extreme pain.

He suddenly smashed a punch into his own thigh and he used a lot of strength, as if he wanted to break his own feet. He felt hatred wash over him. He loathed himself.

If he hadn’t gotten a divorce with Yan Yan, the child she was carrying now would be his. He would also become a father and he would never leave her. Yet, he was the one who had abandoned her, a woman he had always assumed was infertile.

The heavens seemed to be mocking him this time. Yes, she was pregnant, but the child wasn’t his. He didn’t even dare to ask her to abort the baby.

He knew how much she wanted to have a child and knew how important the child was to her. The existence of this child made things even more impossible between them.

He Xiyan emerged from the ultrasound room.

She held a freshly printed examination report in her hands. The NT report was very detailed and even included a clear picture of her fetus as well as the growth statistics of her child.

The doctor who conducted the ultrasound said that the fetus was developing well and was currently stable. She asked He Xiyan not to worry too much and that she would just need to take more care when she went about her daily activities.

He Xiyan held the ultrasound report in her hand and stood at the door staring at it repeatedly. She couldn’t tear her eyes away from the picture of her fetus, her child who looked no bigger than an orange.

She pursed her lips tightly and her lips curved into a blissful smile. She didn’t notice that there was a man sitting nearby. While she smiled, he was crying.

Mo Yixuan stared at her from his spot nearby. He didn’t know when was the last time he had seen her smile so happily but to him, this smile caused him pain, just like it was mocking his past self.

He remembered the day when he brought Xia Yuwei home and told her that she was pregnant with his child. These words must have been caused her extreme pain as well.

Now, karma had come back to bite him and he felt the same pain that he had once given her.
