"It's already been arranged, it will be transferred soon, go take care of the transfer formalities," Huo Shao Ting responded, his gaze fixed tightly on Rong Dai's face.
Lu Nianzhi felt reassured and also looked towards Rong Dai lying on the hospital bed, hesitating for a few seconds before asking him: "Should we not tell the aunties about this?"
Huo Shao Ting frowned. "They would only come and noisy her rest."
Lu Nianzhi did not have anything more to say, he immediately turned and went out to take care of the transfer formalities.
Huo Shao Ting put down his bag and walked to the bedside to sit down, holding Rong Dai's slender hands and kissing them.
The skin that had been rubbed off was scabbing over; he kissed it deeply, his eyes full of heartache and self-blame.
He was very clear on how desperately she wanted a child.
Aside from her previous life's status, she was still so young yet willing to be the mother of his child. He should have been more attentive to her.
He should have noticed.
After all, they had always been careless, yet he was so careless this time!
Huo Shao Ting blamed and resented himself, the man who was usually as majestic as an emperor, now had reddened eyes again.
Lu Nianzhi's actions were swift, in less than an hour Rong Dai had already been transferred to a safer hospital.
Huo Shao Ting kept vigil by Rong Dai's side the entire night, the sleepless night made his face look extremely fatigued.
It was only early morning when Rong Dai groggily woke up.
The moment she saw the white ceiling, she immediately became alert!
Her first instinct was to reach for her lower abdomen, but as soon as she moved she realized her hand was being held by Huo Shao Ting.
"Shao Ting..."
She turned her head to look at him, the red blood vessels in his eyes were so obvious, his weary complexion so concentrated.
She was very clear this was not a feeling from seeing "relatives".
She looked at him, eyes staring blankly, voice cautious yet flustered as she asked him: "Shao Ting, could I be..."
"Could I be pregnant? Did the baby make it?"
She asked with difficulty.
But she was very clear that with her current condition, how could the baby possibly still be safe?
Upon hearing her words, Huo Shao Ting's breathing stagnated slightly, his grip on her hand tightened somewhat.
"...We will have one in the future."
His voice was a little hoarse, low and sinking.
Rong Dai just looked at him, mouth slightly open, unable to say anything more.
Her tears instantly rolled down her cheeks, one after another, splashing onto the pillow in big drops.
A large wet patch quickly formed on the snow white pillow.
"I'm sorry..."
She looked at Huo Shao Ting with agonized, apologetic eyes, voice trembling as she uttered those three words.
Her heart felt like it was being ripped apart, bloody and mangled!
Rong Dai never imagined she would have to endure the pain of losing a child again in this second life!
Her tears cascaded down uncontrollably like a collapsed dam!
She could not make a sound as she cried, but as she cried her body started to tremble, eyes and nose turning red.
Huo Shao Ting felt like his heart was being smashed by a fierce punch, the pain leaving him almost unable to breathe.
He got up and embraced her in his arms, kissing her forehead lightly as he said: "This isn't your fault, this child was not fated to be with us."
But he knew that this definitely involved some mistakes on his part.
If he had not been so lustful, she would not be in so much agony.
This mistake was brought about by him.
Upon hearing his consolation, Rong Dai found it even harder to restrain herself.
She finally broke out into loud sobs, hands clutching his clothes tightly as she cried inconsolably in his embrace!
Why, why was it so difficult for her to just want a healthy child, to become a mother?
Why did she have to suffer this torment again in her second life? Was she really unworthy of happiness?
At this time Rong Dai spiralled into self-doubt, crying desperately in Huo Shao Ting's arms with a broken heart.
