"Shen Zhiyi, this is impossible."

Pregnant? Where did the child come from?

She couldn't understand why the doctor suddenly diagnosed her with pregnancy when she was living in Xie's house just two months ago and had no physical contact with anyone at that time.

Although her menstrual period was not on time, it was always irregular, sometimes early, sometimes late, with no pattern at all. Because of this, she never associated the missed period with pregnancy.

"Could it be that the three doctors are talking nonsense? Then invite all the doctors in the city."

Shen Zhiyi's voice trembled slightly, and pain spread in his eyes. He clenched his fists tightly, trying his best to restrain his emotions that were about to get out of control.

He also wanted to believe what Tao Jiuxi said, but the facts were before him.

"Just send someone to invite him. I'll wait here. I don't have it, that's all." Although Tao Jiuxi felt extremely aggrieved, seeing Shen Zhiyi's heartbroken look, she tried to calm herself down and get things straight as soon as possible.

I have already consulted three doctors. It is possible that one doctor made a wrong diagnosis, but how could all three doctors make a wrong diagnosis?

Shen Zhiyi felt his head buzzing at the moment and just wanted to calm down first.

He stood up and was about to leave, but accidentally bumped into the teacup on the table. With a "clang", the teacup fell to the ground and shattered into pieces in an instant.

"Shen Zhiyi? What are you doing?"

Tao Jiuxi subconsciously thought that Shen Zhiyi was angry with him, and actually threw the cup.

"I......"

"If you're angry, just be angry. Why are you throwing things around?"

Her emotions were instantly ignited, and she immediately used all her strength to overturn the table.

The table was quite heavy, and she tried very hard but failed to overturn it. In anger, she smashed another cup on the table. The sound of broken porcelain echoed in the room, making the tense atmosphere even more intense.

Shen Zhiyi looked at Tao Jiuxi who was so excited, her chest heaving violently due to excessive excitement, and felt that this was not the time to communicate.

He was afraid that he would not be able to accept the truth after hearing it, and he was also afraid that he would hurt Tao Jiuxi in his impulsiveness. He had regretted the polo match for a long time, and he could not let his anger overcome his reason, so he turned around and left.

Tao Jiuxi hurriedly grabbed his arm and said, "Shen Zhiyi, I really don't know why. Can you please solve the problem in person?"

Shen Zhiyi felt like his heart was about to explode with pain.

If Tao Jiuxi was really involved with someone else and had confessed to him earlier, he might not have done this. At this moment, he felt deceived and betrayed.

Tao Jiuxi did not give up, and held Shen Zhiyi's hand tightly again: "I have never been close to others, can you trust me?"

"Then what's going on with this kid? How can you expect me to trust you?"

Tao Jiuxi choked up and said, "I told you everything, but you didn't understand."

"Let go."

He also wanted to believe her, but the facts were right in front of him, so how could he believe her? Shen Zhiyi's eyes flashed with hesitation, but he finally left.

Tao Jiuxi stood there, trying hard to recall what had happened.

Could it be that someone drugged him when he was at Xie's house?

But this was impossible. Every morning when she woke up in Xie's house, she didn't feel anything unusual. She began to doubt herself, wondering if she was too insensitive to notice. After all, she only had theoretical knowledge and no practical experience.

But she also knew that a woman wouldn't get pregnant for no reason, something must have happened.

When this thought came into his mind, Tao Jiuxi felt as if all his strength was drained away. It was possible that such disgusting people from the Xie family would do such a thing.

The night was as dark as ink, shrouding the entire room in darkness.

The wind outside the window blew quietly, making a humming sound, as if telling endless sorrow.

It was unknown how long it took before Shen Zhiyi pushed the door open again.

The moonlight shone through the gaps in the window onto the ground, reflecting his lonely and painful figure.

There was no light in the room, and one could only vaguely see Tao Jiuxi still sitting at the table.

Shen Zhiyi strode forward, picked her up and put her on the bed, then sat silently beside the bed.

Tao Jiuxi never looked at Shen Zhiyi or spoke a word from beginning to end.

The room was eerily quiet, with only his heavy breathing echoing in the air.

At first, Shen Zhiyi also hoped that there was a misunderstanding. He asked Jiang Qu to consult many doctors, and the answers he got were the same: there was no disease that would make the pulse feel like pregnancy.

He sat for a long time before slowly asking, "Is anyone forcing you?"

Tao Jiuxi didn't want to pay attention to him. She herself didn't understand the situation.

"If you don't want to talk about it, then don't talk about it. It's my fault for not taking good care of you, but I can't tolerate him."

His tone was full of pain. He could not accept the existence of this child, nor could he give up Tao Jiuxi.

Tao Jiuxi kept silent.

Shen Zhiyi felt as if there was a ball of anger burning in his heart, burning him to the point of losing all his rationality.

He had given in again and again, but Tao Jiuxi didn't pay any attention to him.

However, no matter how angry he was, his heart softened when he saw the thin figure in the darkness.

He knew that he couldn't lose her, no matter what.

Soon, a new doctor came on board.

This was the doctor Jiang Qu had invited from another county at full speed.

Shen Zhiyi, holding on to his last glimmer of hope, asked Jiang Qu to invite this doctor. This doctor was the best in the nearby county town and had many years of medical experience, so his diagnosis should be accurate.

But contrary to expectations, the doctor's diagnosis was still the same.

"The girl is two months pregnant. She's just a little weak and needs to be taken good care of."

When Tao Jiuxi heard this, her last bit of hope was shattered. She touched her flat belly and wondered if there was really a child here.

She couldn't accept it.

I can't accept this child of unknown origin.

"Please prescribe an abortion pill."

Shen Zhiyi's voice was low and hoarse, as if it was squeezed out from between his teeth with great difficulty, and every word was filled with endless painful struggle.

The doctor sighed softly upon hearing this.

"I can prescribe the medicine, but there are some things I must say beforehand." The doctor looked at the man and woman struggling in agony, a trace of pity in his eyes. "The girl is already weak. If she drinks this medicine, she will suffer more than an ordinary person. She will need to recuperate for six months."

Shen Zhiyi hesitated for a moment, and finally, he said with difficulty: "Open it."

Jiang Qu took the doctor downstairs to prescribe and boil medicine.

"Jiuxi, let's not dwell on the past and start over."

Tao Jiuxi nodded woodenly, her eyes blank and lifeless.

She would not want a child of unknown origin. She knew very well that this was the result of Shen Zhiyi putting aside all his pride and thinking carefully, but her heart was also filled with fear and grievance.

The medicine was brought up, and the pungent bitter smell instantly filled the entire room. Tao Jiuxi smelled the smell and his stomach churned.

She took a deep breath and took the bowl on her own initiative.

But her hands kept shaking. She was very scared. She was afraid of the pain and she was also afraid of letting down the innocent little life in her belly.

But what have I done wrong?

She is a victim too.

Tao Jiuxi gritted his teeth, made up his mind, picked up the bowl and prepared to drink it all in one gulp, but was knocked over by Shen Zhiyi at the critical moment.

"Don't drink it! Your body won't be able to handle it."
