She died tragically at her engagement banquet, and was reborn to marry the heir of the Beijing elite

The two sisters were taken to the hospital together. Fu Yanchen held Shen Mengxia's hand the whole way, feeling extremely distressed.

Outside the emergency room, which reeked of disinfectant, Fu Yanchen stood like a statue whose soul had been ripped away.

His eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at the closed door. Inside were his beloved wife and unborn child, whose fate was now uncertain because of him.

More than an hour later, the doctor pushed open the operating room door. "Who is a family member?"

“It’s me, I’m the patient’s husband,” Fu Yanchen, looking weary, quickly stepped forward and replied.

"I'm sorry, we did our best. The mother is fine, but the baby couldn't be saved. Take good care of the patient; you are all young, and you'll have plenty of opportunities in the future." The doctor comforted Fu Yanchen while announcing the death of the unborn child.

The news of Shen Mengxia's miscarriage was like a sharp sword, piercing straight into his heart.

He knew that the root of all this was his loss of control after being drugged, and that absurd night he spent sleeping with Shen Mengqing was like an irreversible nightmare.

His mind kept replaying the desperate and broken look in Shen Mengxia's eyes when she learned the news. Those eyes had once been so bright and lively. They had once been full of anticipation for new life, but now they were filled with a deathly silence.

Looking at Shen Mengxia, who was lying on the hospital bed with a pale face, Fu Yanchen recalled how he and Shen Mengxia had described what their future child would look like, discussed names for the child, and imagined teaching the child to walk in a sun-drenched garden after the child was born, and hearing the child utter the first tender "Papa, Mama".

Those beautiful dreams have now become thorns piercing his heart.

He gripped his hair tightly with both hands, trying to forcefully pull the guilt and remorse that kept surging into his heart out of his head.

When he learned that Shen Mengqing had given birth to a girl, his feelings became even more complicated.

This innocent little life was born with such a dramatic and shameful beginning. And wasn't she also a victim of this tragedy?

Fu Yanchen felt like he was trapped in a quagmire from which he could not escape, with every direction leading to an abyss of pain.

Outside the ward, Fu's mother and Ye Huaiting rushed over. Upon seeing the scene, the parents couldn't help but slap Fu Yanchen hard across the face.

"Son, how could you be so foolish? How could you do such a heartless thing?" The parents were already in tears, hitting Fu Yanchen with their fists, crying out, "You ruined such a good grandson! Neither of you gives me any peace of mind. One of you won't get married, and the other has a perfectly good family but chooses to have one-night stands!"

Fu Yanchen squatted on the ground, repeatedly whipping himself. Shen Mengxia, seemingly sensing something in her unconscious state, slid a tear down her cheek. Seeing this, Fu Yanchen felt an even greater pang of pain in his heart.

When Madam Fu entered the ward, she looked at the weak Shen Mengxia and felt a pang of guilt. She gently stroked Shen Mengxia's hand and whispered, "Child, it is our Fu family that has wronged you."

At this moment, Shen Mengqing arrived at the ward door carrying her newborn daughter. She had intended to visit Shen Mengxia, but was stopped by Fu's mother.

"How dare you show your face here? You're the one who caused all this trouble," Mother Fu scolded.

Tears welled up in Shen Mengqing's eyes. "Auntie, I didn't want this to happen either. I love Yan Chen."

"Hmph, your so-called love has ruined so many people." Fu's mother turned away angrily.

Fu Yanchen slowly stood up, walked to Shen Mengqing, and looked at the baby in the swaddling clothes with a complicated expression. "Go, take the child and leave this place, and never show your face again."

Shen Mengqing stared wide-eyed at Fu Yanchen in disbelief. "Yanchen, how could you be so heartless? I'm your savior!"

“You’ve made a mess of my life. I will protect Meng Xia and never let her suffer any more harm,” Fu Yanchen said resolutely.
