Chapter 672: Cry Of A Cuckoo
Jiang Xuecheng was in a daze. He stared with restatement at the black and white paper and felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife.
The child in Su Wan’s belly was really not his…
Just as Jiang Xuecheng was feeling heartbroken, he suddenly heard the high priest’s cold voice.
“Since you’re so sad, I’ll just let the mother and child die together.”
The high priest never joked, and this sentence was certainly not a joke!
Jiang Xuecheng suddenly came back to his senses. He gripped the paper tightly in his hand and took a deep breath to calm himself down.
“High priest, I promised Su Wan that I would protect her and her child…”
The words were still ringing in his ears, but his state of mind was completely disheartened.
Hearing that Jiang Xuecheng was still protecting Su Wan, the High Priest’s eyes were full of sarcasm.
She had personally chosen the successor, but she did not expect that he would have a soft spot because of a woman. It was simply the benevolence of a woman. He was not decisive at all!
The sarcasm on the high priest’s face faded away and turned into a deep dignity and coldness.
“You were the one who promised Su Wan back then, not me!”
Jiang Xuecheng did not expect the high priest to be so shameless. He looked angry and immediately opened his mouth to refute.
“But…”
Before Jiang Xuecheng finished speaking, the high priest immediately raised her hand and cut off his words, mercilessly picking out the deepest thorn in Jiang Xuecheng’s heart.
“What? It’s just a commoner girl who cheated on you! She even cuckolded you! She’s carrying a child of unknown origin! You actually want to protect them?”
When the deepest scar in his heart was brought up, the originally irrepressible look on Jiang Xuecheng’s face instantly became dispirited.
The man stood on the spot dejectedly. He felt dizzy and even a little unsteady. Scenes of him meeting Su Wan appeared in front of his eyes.
The only girl he had ever liked was actually just his own wishful thinking.
Seeing that she had succeeded in sowing discord, the high priest decided to add fuel to the fire.
“I’ve already given you a multiple choice question. Either they die together or the child is aborted. I don’t have the patience to listen to your endless chatter.”
Jiang Xuecheng pursed his lips and clenched his fists tightly. Blue veins popped out unconsciously.
Everyone had a past, and he did not mind this. However, Su Wan had lied to him and even wanted to pin the child on him. This made Jiang Xuecheng feel that even his fundamental values had been challenged!
This was the first time he felt so pained because someone had lied to him…
The worst thing Su Wan should do was to lie to him. Was it fun to play with his feelings?
The person who lied to him should pay the price.
He had originally only wanted to protect Su Wan alone. As long as the child in Su Wan’s belly was removed, would he feel better?
That’s right, he had promised not to hurt Su Wan and her child, but what if it was someone else?
Jiang Xuecheng knew that he was trying to change his mind, but jealousy was like a venomous snake that had already corroded his rationality.
He could only make a choice that would make him happy.
“Alright, then abort the child. But Su Wan is mine, don’t touch her.”
The man’s voice was still magnetic and deep, but it was completely devoid of emotion. It was as cold as the walls of this hospital.
When the high priest heard the expected answer, the corners of her lips curved slightly.
She had said that there was no such generous man in this world who could tolerate a vile spawn.
Very good. Now she had another trump card in her hand.
She did not have to worry about the emporer that she had single-handedly promoted betraying her one day.
After the high priest obtained the answer she wanted, she immediately walked out of the hospital. The autumn-colored retro-styled dress curled up like a ball of mist in a painting.
In the luxurious and cold hospital hall, only Jiang Xuecheng was left dejectedly standing alone.
Hearing the high priest’s footsteps gradually fade away, the man closed his eyes and let his back rest on the wall behind him with all his strength.
Su Wan, Su Wan, Su Wan!
The man silently chanted this name in his heart. His originally sour heart was now being pulled even more painfully.
Why did he feel that he had taken revenge on Su Wan’s betrayal, but he was not as happy as he imagined. Instead, he felt even sadder?
The pale wall reflected the man’s figure, making him seem so lonely.
…
In front of the operating table, everything was going on in full swing.
Su Wan was clearly unconscious because of the sufficient amount of anesthetic, but in the chaos, she just felt so painful.
She felt that something connected to her blood was being extracted from her body.
She felt that someone was crying in her mind, louder and louder, like the cry of a cuckoo. It was so painful, as if she was going to die at any moment.
Who was it?
It felt as if the baby in her belly was losing its life force…
Perhaps due to the connection between the mother and the child, Su Wan’s fingertips trembled. With absolute faith, she suddenly opened her eyes!
The doctor who was performing the surgery was shocked by Su Wan. He almost lost his balance.
“Chief, she’s awake! What should we do?”
“Idiot, what are you panicking for! Increase the anesthetic! We have to take this child out!”
Su Wan heard someone shouting in front of her. She raised her head with difficulty and felt a strong bloody smell coming from her belly.
They want to get rid of her child…
Kill her child?
No, absolutely not!
Her child was only a month old and had not even seen all the beautiful things in this world. How could it just leave like that!
Su Wan opened her eyes with great effort. She stared at the doctor in front of her and her tears fell out like beads that had lost their thread.
“Please, don’t hurt it…”
Su Wan thought that she would scream, but she did not. Her voice was as soft as an injured cat.
Her voice was so humble that it sounded like dust. She begged them to save her child.
“Don’t hurt my child…”
“Please…”
But no one paid any attention to her!
Su Wan was shocked and angry. She tried to kick her body to escape from the control of this group of scum, but her body felt as heavy as lead. She only felt that the smell of blood was so strong, so strong.
All the doctors present did not expect Su Wan to still have the strength to struggle after she was anesthetized!
They saw that the operating table had already bloomed with terrifying blood-red flowers, just like the legendary fiery red lotus that only bloomed in Hell.
And Su Wan was the beauty among the red lotuses. It was a terrifying sight!
It was a different kind of seduction, but it was also a different kind of terror!
Heavens, this was going to be a huge hemorrhage!
“Control her, don’t let her move!”
The chief physician roared in exasperation. The assistant who had reacted quickly used a needle to pierce into Su Wan’s flesh.
Su Wan felt her consciousness slipping away bit by bit. She was angry, she was sad, she was sorrowful, she was helpless, but in the end, she could only lose herself in a miserable dream.
Before she completely fainted, Su Wan was still struggling feebly. The broken sobs were like the mournful cries of a small beast dying.
