Time seemed to stop at this moment, and the whole world fell into deathly silence.
Mint looked at the man with a face of pain and despair at the door, secretly clutching the sheets, "Mom, grandma, let me talk to him alone."
Too many things happened at once, and even a capable strong woman like Shen Mei couldn't help it. She walked out with a look of despair on her face, staggering, and even needed the help of her grandma to keep from falling.
Guan Shouheng slowly walked to the hospital bed. Every step he took was like walking barefoot on an ice blade. The blade cut his skin, his blood flowed backwards, and he became a river of sadness.
He looked at the pale girl on the hospital bed, so haggard, yet so calm, as calm as a lake.
"Mint... how are you...?" His question seemed stupid even to himself, but besides this, what else could he say?
"You saw it, so why ask again." She said quietly. Seeing the surging sadness in his eyes, she didn't even blink, as if her whole body was numb and her soul was taken away by the god of death.
Guan Shouheng half-knelt in front of the bed, holding hers with trembling hands, "I'm sorry... If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have had this accident..."
She withdrew her hand and said, "Guan Shouheng, you don't have to apologize. This was not an accident."
"……What's the meaning?"
"When I was sent to the hospital, the child could still be saved. It was me who told the doctor that I didn't want it anymore."
"What did you say?" He looked at her with disbelief written all over his face.
She looked back at him with a dead expression on her face, "Guan Shouheng, do you hate me?"
Of course I hate it!
That's their child, a six-and-a-half-month-old child!
Seven-month-old premature babies can survive, but their child is only half a month old?
The last time he accompanied her to a prenatal check-up, he saw the ultrasound photo. The little child's eyebrows were clearly visible. He was so magical and cute. How could he... just say no and disappear?
He couldn't imagine what that beautiful little life had become now. As soon as he thought about it, his stomach began to churn. He couldn't help the nauseating desire, lowered his head and vomited it out, but what he vomited out was blood.
She looked at his embarrassment, her nails dug deeply into her palms, and her palms were also sticky and moist.
"Guan Shouheng, we are leaving..."
"No..." He didn't allow her to say that word, he didn't want a divorce, he couldn't lose her!
He grabbed her hand again, squeezed it with all his strength, and begged urgently, "Mint, it's okay, we are still young, we will have children in the future... in the future..."
Even now, he is still reluctant to let go, he still wants her.
Guan Shouheng, you can use it a little less!
"There's no future!" She wanted to throw away his hand, but he refused to let go. They were in a stalemate, the thin sheets being pulled and messy, and the ticket slipping gently.
She stopped struggling and saw his pupils shrink for a moment.
"You want to go abroad?" There was despair in his tone.
"Yes." She admitted indifferently, "Guan Shouheng, how can people like you and I have a future? I was young and ignorant before, and marrying you was a mistake. I want to correct this mistake now. I will not bear children for you. , I’m going to Canada to start a new life.”
He really gave up when he saw the ticket. This was the gap between them, a difference between a sky, a place, a cloud and a mud.
His head hurt very much. He was hit by a wine glass once and a vase once. Didn't he suffer enough this night?
Why didn't he understand until now?
Maybe they were wrong from the beginning.
For this reason, they ruined a marriage and sacrificed...a life.
It turns out that there are some things that he can get if he doesn't want them. Some people can be kept if he doesn't keep them.
