Chapter 12 He Doesn't Like Me
- After speaking, I stared intently at his face.
- Secretary Dong was momentarily stunned, and his facial expressions were extremely varied.
- His expression was peculiar, with a hint of guilt.
- What is he feeling guilty about?
- Initially, I had already concluded that it had nothing to do with Sang Qi, but Secretary Dong's expression made me suspicious once again.
- He quickly composed himself and said, "Miss Xia, don't overthink it. Sang Qi is definitely not the person you think he is."
- "You also know Sang Qi?"
- "He is a prominent figure, how could I not know him?"
- Secretary Dong didn't want to argue any further, so he handed me a mobile phone, saying, "If you're bored, you can use this phone to browse Taobao and buy things. The bank card linked to the phone has enough funds for you to enjoy yourself."
- Secretary Dong left, and before leaving, he instructed the maid to keep an eye on me and prevent me from causing trouble.
- After he left, I threw the phone he left me far away.
- I don't want this money.
- He wants to exchange money for my body, for my child, but I won't let him have his way.
- ...
- The next day, before dawn, I got up.
- The two maids were still asleep.
- Because I was worried about waking them up with too much noise, I didn't use the wheelchair and ran straight out, sneaking through the back path, and successfully met the ride-hailing driver I had arranged with last night.
- We headed straight to the hospital.
- Sitting in the waiting room, I lowered my head and touched my belly, feeling a bit sorrowful.
- Soon, I would be ending a precious life.
- But I had no choice.
- Anyone who would force me to have a child in that manner couldn't be a good person.
- I tightly clasped my hands, repeatedly turning the screen of my phone on and off, waiting silently for it to go dark.
- Time passed minute by minute.
- I had scheduled the surgery with the doctor for half past nine, and it was already nine o'clock now.
- Secretary Dong must have realized that I was missing and was frantically calling me.
- I didn't answer any of his calls.
- But...
- Thinking about Secretary Dong's expression yesterday, I suddenly felt unwilling.
- Could it be that the man really wasn't Sang Qi?
- But he treated me differently...
- I couldn't help but call Sang Qi.
- As his secretary, I had his number.
- The phone rang for a long time, and just when I thought Sang Qi wouldn't answer, he picked up.
- His deep voice came through.
- "Xia Zhi."
- His voice was truly pleasant to listen to.
- My hand couldn't help but tighten, and with a hoarse voice, I asked, "Sang Qi, did you really never like me before?"
- I still didn't dare to ask if he was the man from that night.
- If not, I don't want him to know about my embarrassment and shame.
- There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time.
- Sang Qi asked, "Where are you?"
- "Answer me, Sang Qi!" I persisted.
- "...Where are you."
- He didn't answer!
- "Sang Qi, you're not a real man!" I instantly became annoyed and hung up the phone with a snap!
- Then Dong Secretary called again.
- I answered, and before he could speak, I coldly said, "Don't call me again! I'm about to have surgery to remove the baby!"
- "Miss Xia, you can't!"
- "Get lost! It's my body, why can't I make the decision? Mr. Dong, if you have the guts, have your boss come and stop me in person. Otherwise, don't bother me with your nonsense here, it just infuriates me!"
- After cursing, I hung up the phone with a snap again, and then turned off my phone!
- At the entrance of the clinic, the young nurse asked tremblingly, "Miss Xia, can you come in and get ready?"
- I took a deep breath and calmed myself down, "Okay."
- I walked into the hospital like Iron Crutch Li, and entered the operating room.
- The surgery was simple, and I chose the most expensive option, inviting the director of the obstetrics and gynecology department to perform it.
- I lay quietly on the operating table, while the doctor and nurses prepared for the surgery.
- It was a minor surgery, without many complicated procedures.
- After the doctor finished disinfecting, he stood in front of me with his hands raised, "We will perform the abortion surgery for you immediately. I'll ask you again, have you thought it through?"
- "Mhm."
- Why so much unnecessary talk? Asking again about this matter is like stabbing another knife in my heart.
- I remained silent with my eyes closed. The nurse disinfected me before the surgery, wiping my skin with cotton balls soaked in iodine. Goosebumps appeared wherever the cotton ball touched.
- I tightly closed my eyes.
- The young nurse patted my leg, "Don't be nervous, we'll give you anesthesia soon, and it won't hurt at all."
- "Mhm," I hummed.
- The nurse administered the anesthesia, and gradually, I lost sensation in the lower abdomen.
- It was a strange feeling, my limbs and head were still there, but my stomach was gone.
- "Now we will proceed with the surgery," the doctor walked over.
- Bang! Bang! Bang!
- Suddenly, the door of the operating room was violently knocked.
- The doctor frowned as he picked up the instruments, "What's going on? Xiao Li, go check."
- The young nurse walked out of the operating room and went to open the door.
- "What? The surgery is canceled? Who are you people?"
- The surprised voice of the nurse came through.
- "Family."
- "What kind of family?"
- "...The child's father."
- I lay on the operating table, hearing every word clearly.
- The anesthesia caused some weakness in my judgment, but I could still tell that it wasn't He Cong's voice.
- Finally, did he come in person this time?
- I pushed myself up and looked towards the door.
- I wanted to see who that person was!
- The curtain in the operating room was pulled back, revealing a tall and upright man standing in front of me.
- I looked at him, and he looked at me.
- "It's you?!"
