As soon as he entered the door, he looked around: "Shen Ke, you are so lucky. You don't have to work to come here to recuperate. This private hospital is extremely expensive, and yours is a VIP suite. Tell me, did you quit your job and switch to Xiangdong? In Tong Leyan's arms?"
After saying that, she sighed: "But you are also smart. You are involved in gangs. How serious it is. You might also be involved. But how can you be so capable? First, you are the eldest son of the Xi family, and then the second son of the Tong family. Young Master, do rich and handsome men all like your style?"
Shen Ke had a piece of apple stuck in his throat and couldn't move it up or down: "Don't talk nonsense, Tong Letan and I don't have that kind of relationship."
"Oh." Meng Jiao responded casually, obviously still not believing it, "I heard from Gu Nanshun that you are pregnant. The child must be Mr. Xi's, right? So what are you going to do now?"
Shen Ke spread his hands: "What else can I do? Just give birth to her and raise her."
"The child's father?"
"Forget about that bastard. How can you be the mother of a child if you don't experience being a scumbag?"
Meng Jiao gave her a thumbs up, then turned around and said, "But since Tong Leyan helped you get admitted to the hospital, he also knows that you are pregnant, right? How could he be willing to be such a cheap father?"
Shen Ke really wanted to kneel down to her: "Tong Letan and I really don't have that kind of relationship. We... can be considered relatives."
Shen Ke paused and said ambiguously.
I thought Meng Jiao would get to the bottom of it, but she opened her mouth and glanced at her, then burst into laughter: "Why didn't you say that you were the long-lost daughter of the Tong family, and then you had an affair with your brother without knowing it? A story of unparalleled romance, but he was terminally ill, and in the end faced the truth, he could only part ways."
Now it was Shen Ke's turn to open his mouth and become speechless.
She guessed the beginning, but not the ending.
When she woke up again, she saw Tong Leyan standing in front of the window of her ward. In the dim light, he only showed a profile with cool lines.
He turned around when he heard her getting up.
His expression was serious: "Keke, you may have to transfer to another hospital."
Shen Ke didn't understand, but she didn't feel at ease living in such an expensive ward. Anyway, she was just a normal fetal movement of a pregnant woman, so there was no need to make such a fuss.
Tong Leyan's tone was still not relaxed: "The doctor found out that there is a foreign body in your brain. It is like a time bomb. With the secretion of various hormones during pregnancy, as well as the changes in brain pressure during pregnancy... it may collapse at any time. Broken blood vessels and compressed nerves. Your previous intermittent blindness was caused by the compression of the optic nerve. If you persist in pregnancy, you are likely to become blind and even...put your life in danger."
As he spoke, he handed over a brain CT scan.
Shen Ke has seen this CT scan countless times. The only difference is that this time the shadow on his brain seems to have expanded.
She glanced at it and was speechless for a moment.
Tong Leyan continued to persuade her: "If you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about running out of firewood. A woman's life does not need to be completed by having children. I believe Xi Xiangdong thinks so too, and that's why he advises you to get rid of the child."
Shen Ke suddenly realized that both times the doctor hid the truth from her and discussed the condition directly with her family members, probably because he was afraid that telling her the truth would affect her mood for recovery.
"So...Xi Xiangdong knew early on that my pregnancy would be dangerous?"
Shen Ke asked him with trembling lips, feeling empty in his heart.
