Qin Muzhen was reading the newspaper while eating breakfast. Xia stood on the chair next to him, drinking milk, but his eyes glanced at the door from time to time, a little carelessly.
After a while, she grabbed the table, climbed up to Qin Mushi and asked, "Daddy, where did mommy go? Why didn't you see her all morning?"
Hearing this, Qin Muxue put down the newspaper. After leaving the study at five o'clock in the morning, he locked himself in the room alone. He was so depressed that he didn't want to care about anything and didn't want to listen to anything.
He didn't sleep a wink all night. As soon as he left the room in the morning, Ran Ran hurriedly found him and said that his wife was missing.
He was a little panicked at first, but then he thought about it and calmed down. He and she had already talked to this extent last night, and he was afraid that he wouldn't need to take care of her affairs in the future.
He touched his daughter's head and said, "Your mommy has gone out for something and will be back in a while."
"Really?" Guaiguai looked like he didn't believe it.
"It's true. How could Daddy lie to you? Hurry up and finish your meal, pack your things and go to the kindergarten. Mommy will be back when you come home next time..."

Time in my sleep seemed to have stopped. The moving hands began to go back and forth in a stagnant manner, and my ears became silent and hollow. Occasionally, there were a few tiny footsteps, but they were only shallow.
Vaguely, there seemed to be a warm thing, slowly moving down her lower abdomen, and then withdrawing from her body bit by bit. In the dream, she stretched out her hands in fear, trying to hug the lump.
It's warm, but it's a pity that there is nothing you can do.
She could only let the cold instruments move back and forth in her body, mechanically and desperately.
A long time passed after that, and when she opened her eyes again, she saw only the white ceiling above her head. There were also the noises of people calling back and forth or impatient voices in the hospital, and the pungent smell of disinfectant...
Where is this place?
Is this a hospital?
But why is she here?
Countless questions were swirling in her mind. Xia Tong stretched out a hand and supported it on the bed, trying to force herself to sit up. But as soon as she tried hard, she lay down weakly.
She couldn't exert any strength, and her whole body was as soft as a puddle of mud.
What frightened her even more was that she found that her belly was flat? It no longer had the slightly convex feeling it had before.
The energy in her body was extracted from her limbs bit by bit, and paralysis spread throughout her body. All her thoughts and expressions condensed at this moment.
What happened to her?
She suddenly seemed like she was going crazy and pressed the alarm bell next to the hospital bed. After a while, a group of nurses ran in after hearing the news: "Miss, what's wrong with you?"
The uneasiness caused Xia Tong's voice to rise unconsciously: "What's wrong with me? What's wrong with me?"
She grabbed the hem of a female nurse's clothes in fear: "Doctor, call me a doctor, I want a doctor!!"
"Okay, okay..." The little nurse was obviously frightened by her and took a step back in panic: "I'll call the doctor for you right now."
A few minutes later, a female doctor in her fifties came in. As soon as Xia Tong saw her, he immediately used all his strength to sit up and asked: "Doctor, what's wrong with me? Can you tell me what's wrong?"
The doctor pulled away her clenched hand, sat beside the bed, and said earnestly: "Miss, you fainted on the street the night before yesterday and were rescued here by a passing couple. That night we found that you were bleeding from your lower body [vagina].
, accompanied by paroxysmal uterine contractions, placenta detachment... The situation was very dangerous at that time, and if you were not careful, it would kill two people. So after all the doctors voted, I performed an induction surgery on you, Miss. Although the baby was gone in the end,
But fortunately, you are still safe."
"What?!" Hearing this, Xia Tong's whole body was shocked, "You said the child is gone?"
The doctor nodded heavily: "Yes, under the original circumstances, we couldn't think of any other solution besides giving up the child."
Xia Tong leaned on the back of the bed behind him, desperate and confused.
It's like there was a small, strange seed in the body, which was about to burst out of its shell and sprout, but was eventually ruthlessly eradicated...
Xia Tong squeezed the palms of her hands, and there seemed to be an unbearable pain between the fingers. The pain spread from the palms of her hands to the bottom of her heart.
She buried her head between her knees and said in a low voice: "Thank you doctor, please go out first. I want to take a rest."
The doctor patted her shoulder comfortingly and then walked out of the door. As soon as the door closed, she suddenly seemed to have taken off all her strong clothes and started crying.
At first it was just a low, quiet cry, until finally it was almost a full-blown cry.
My sister is gone, my child is gone, even Qin Mushi is gone...
She doesn't know what she has left?
Don’t even know where the road ahead is?

At Huyuan Villa, after Nie Sheng finished handing over his work, something stuck in his throat and he didn't seem to know what to say.
Sensing his hesitation, Qin Muzhen glanced at him: "If you have anything to say, just say it. You know I hate people who hesitate."
"It's Mr. Mu." Nie Sheng said, "In the past two days, my subordinates finally found out Miss Xia's whereabouts..."
Qin Mu flipped through the report in his hand, and his face did not move at all when he heard this: "Hmm..."
"Ms. Xia is now in Anxin Hospital. It is said that she had an induced labor operation at this hospital two days ago."
The man's hand while turning over the report paused for a moment, then returned to normal: "Hmm..."
Nie Sheng was slightly stunned. He couldn't figure out what he wanted him to do? To take Miss Xia home, or -
"Master Mu, do you need me to go to the hospital and bring Miss Xia back?"
Qin Muzhen signed the report and handed it to him: "Tell Director Wang that his report is much better than last time."
Nie Sheng took it over and said, "What about Miss Xia..."
"Nie Sheng——." Qin Muzhen interrupted him: "Are you very free?"
"..." Nie Sheng lowered his head: "I don't dare."
Qin Muzhen's eyes turned cold: "If you have free time, just do your job for me. The company already has enough things to do, and you still have the mood to care about a woman's affairs?!"
"Sorry, Master Mu."
"Get out!" Qin Muzhen's voice became even colder. Nie Sheng took the report and walked out of the villa.
As soon as he went out, Qin Mujie slammed the fruit plate on the coffee table to the ground. There was only a "clang" sound and the glass shattered to the ground.
Ran Ran, who was cleaning up the room on the second floor, came over after hearing the news, "Master, what happened?"
"It's nothing -" Qin Mujie put away his finger that was accidentally cut by the broken glass and said: "The quality of this glass plate is not good. I will buy a better one in the afternoon."
