Inside the doctor’s office
“Doctor Zhao, how is my wife doing?”
“President Qin, we are taking extra precaution because Commander Su arranged for her stay . Your wife is doing fine right now, but she’s weak because of the induced labor . The only thing I’m worried about is her mental health . I’m sure her miscarriage is taking a toll on your entire family . I suggest therapy . ”
“I know . What about the fetus?” Qin Chu forced himself to ask this question calmly, despite the hurricane causing havoc through his body .
“That’s your decision . If you would like to take care of him, then he’s all yours . Otherwise, the hospital can do it for you . ”
“I’ll take him . ”
“Okay then, President Qin . I think your wife can be discharged after resting up for a day or two . You can either take her home or transfer her to a recuperation center in your city . At least you’ll both be in a familiar environment . ”
“Okay . ”
After Qin Chu’s brief conversation with the doctor, he went back to Huo Mian’s room to see her eyes red and puffy .
“Honey… I want to leave . I want to go home . ”
“Mhm, we’ll leave tomorrow . We’ll go home in a private plane . Su Yu’s being discharged tomorrow as well, so we’ll go home together . ”
“Honey, what about our baby?” Huo Mian asked tearily .
“I’ve arranged for him to be buried here, so mom and dad don’t feel so bad . ”
“Okay . ” Huo Mian nodded . She reached out her arms to embrace Qin Chu, but the latter stood up to leave, leaving her arms hanging in midair .
“Mian, do you want porridge or warm milk?”
“Warm milk . ”
“Okay . ” Qin Chu nodded . There wasn’t a microwave in the room, so he boiled some hot water he could use to warm up the milk .
“Honey, do you remember how you used to take care of me like this back in school, whenever I got my period? You used to skip class to get me something warm to drink, once you were even caught by the headmaster . ”
“I do,” Qin Chu muttered a short response .
“I really miss those times, why do we have to grow up? The years I spent with you at Second High were the happiest years of my life . I miss enjoying Ah-Xin’s Ramen with you, and I miss being carefree . ”
“I do too,” Qin Chu said gently before turning around with a glass of warm milk and handing it to Huo Mian .
The latter took the milk, hesitated for a brief second, and began to slowly sip it .
Meanwhile, Qiao Fei was trying and failing to get in touch with Professor Lu . It wasn’t a big surprise, however, because Professor Lu had always been hard to contact .
Feeling depressed, Qiao Fei and his men went into a nearby bar and sat down in one of the booths .
“Young Master, what would you like to drink?”
“I don’t care,” Qiao Fei shrugged . He was in a crappy mood – Lu Yan had gone missing, leaving nothing but a giant puddle of blood behind . He wasn’t trying to be pessimistic, but she might not even be alive right now .
Qiao Fei was a good-looking man with a head of silver hair . Naturally, people of all genders came up to hit on him as soon as he sat down, and Qiao Fei’s men had to block them off one by one .
Just then, a woman with long curly hair and little clothing covering her body walked up to Qiao Fei with a smile . His men stopped her before she could come into close contact, but she smiled coyishly at him . “Mr . Handsome, want to buy me a drink?”
“F*ck off . ”
“Trust me, you’ll regret it if I f*ck off . You’re looking for someone, aren’t you?” the woman asked with a smile .
Upon hearing this, Qiao Fei’s eyes shot up to the woman’s face with an icy glare .
