After the divorce, the CEO forced me to have his child.

Zheng's mother was unaware of the whole situation. Although she felt that her daughter had done something wrong, it was only natural, especially given her daughter's current state.

She kept comforting Zheng Yuanxi, saying, "Since it has already happened, don't take it to heart. After some time, Mom will take you to the temple to pray and have the abbot copy some scriptures to send that child off on his way."

"Is it okay? Actually, what upsets me the most is A-Yi's attitude. He always told me that he loves me, and he showed that he hates Gu Zhiyao very much. But today, he just carried Gu Zhiyao away, without looking at me at all. He hasn't even come to see me yet. Mom, do you think he's angry? Or does he actually have feelings for Gu Zhiyao? Maybe he's already fallen in love with Gu Zhiyao?"

Zheng's mother already knew about He Yi's marriage to Gu Zhiyao and their alleged sexual relationship. Although she was saddened for her daughter, she thought it was common for men from wealthy families to engage in casual affairs. She reasoned that many men, besides those involved in such transactions, had numerous affairs, some even keeping mistresses after marriage. Therefore, she could only advise her daughter not to dwell on it. After all, she had witnessed the deep love between her daughter and He Yi and believed that He Yi truly loved her daughter.

Now her daughter tells her that the woman is pregnant, and He Yi has tacitly agreed to let the child stay!

Therefore, Zheng's mother suddenly didn't understand He Yi's mindset.

Could it be that he has really fallen in love with that woman?

Then why did he marry Yuanyuan?

Unless he also wants to be like other men, enjoying the bliss of having two women at home and one outside.

No, He Yi is not that kind of person.

He's not!

"Yuanyuan, you've just been through all that, and I know you must be feeling terrible. It's hard for you to think clearly. Drink this tea first, get a good night's sleep, and you'll feel much better when you wake up. If Ayi hasn't contacted you by then, go find him!"

"Me, go see him? Mom, why should I? I'm not even angry with him yet! No, I'm not going to see him!"

“Okay, then let’s not look for him. Let him come to you. Yuanyuan, no matter what, I believe that Ayi still loves you very much. You believe it yourself, don’t you? It’s just that this problem has suddenly occurred, and he may need some time to sort things out. Let’s give each other a few days and then talk to each other face to face. Let him tell you what his plans are, what his feelings are towards Gu Zhiyao, and why he let the child be born.”

With her mother's reassurances, Zheng Yuanxi finally took the medicine. Because the medicine had a hypnotic and calming effect, Zheng Yuanxi soon fell asleep.

Zheng's mother looked at her quietly, sighing inwardly, hoping that everything would be alright.

After being in a coma for two days and one night, Gu Zhiyao finally woke up.

Lin Yu happened to be standing guard by the bedside.

After Gu Zhiyao left Yuncheng, Lin Yu kept track of her news. Everyone used a new number to contact each other. Gu Zhiyao told her that she would notify her when she arrived there. Seeing that the time had passed and she still hadn't received any news from Gu Zhiyao, she had no choice but to call. Just then, Quan Xinyu received the call, and Lin Yu realized that something had happened.

They rushed to the hospital immediately.

They scolded He Yi severely and even kicked him out.

He Yi had never been treated like this before, and his gaze towards Lin Yu was naturally very unpleasant. Quan Xinyu was worried that if things continued like this, Lin Yu would anger the president and might really be dealt with, so he simply reminded He Yi about company matters and then accompanied He Yi to leave the hospital.

"Yao, are you alright? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? If there's anything that hurts, just tell me."

After two days of rest, Gu Zhiyao's facial injuries have been mostly healed, and unless you look closely, you can't see any marks. The only remaining injuries are those on her body and her uterus.

Gu Zhiyao glanced around, then looked at her abdomen and asked, "Where's the baby? Ayu, is the baby still there? The baby..."

"Yao." Lin Yu quickly grabbed her.

Gu Zhiyao looked up at Lin Yu and continued to murmur, "The child is gone, isn't he?"

Lin Yu remained silent and continued to hold her hand tightly.

Gu Zhiyao was deeply saddened and stopped speaking.

“The baby isn’t meant to be with us, so he won’t be coming this time. We’ll come again when we have the chance in the future,” Lin Yu said, her voice choked with emotion.

"Come again? Will I? Come again..." Gu Zhiyao gradually recalled the scene, how Wen Ya had cruelly forced her to take the medicine, how Zheng Yuanxi had stood by arrogantly and coldly watching, and then, how she was covered in blood...

That's a baby!

That's a baby!

Gu Zhiyao trembled all over, and tears streamed down her pale face like a flood.

Lin Yu hugged her tightly and said, "Yao, if you want to cry, just cry. Cry it out, and then cheer up. My mother told me about a temple where mothers who have lost their babies can personally copy scriptures to give to their unborn children, praying that they are doing well in the other world and will be reincarnated soon. I'll go with you when you're better, and we can copy more scriptures so that the blessings and protection for the baby will be stronger!"

He Yi came in just in time to see this scene.

Lin Yu was originally facing him, and saw him appear first, followed by Gu Zhiyao.

Looking at that all-too-familiar face, Gu Zhiyao felt as if she had been transported to another world.

Lin Yu shouted, "What are you doing here? I told you I would take care of Zhiyao, and we don't need you here. Do you think that by pretending to be kind, you can make this disappear? He Yi, you're a big bastard, get out of here right now!"

He Yi's expression turned serious as usual.

Quan Xinyu said to Lin Yu, "Miss Lin, watch your words."

"I'll say whatever I want, and if you don't like what I'm saying, then get out of here!"

“Ayu, let me talk to him,” Gu Zhiyao said.

Lin Yu turned her gaze back to Gu Zhiyao, remembering that this man, despite being a scoundrel, was still the man Zhiyao loved. Not knowing what Zhiyao's feelings for him were now, she didn't say anything more and went out first.

Quan Xinyu also tactfully walked away.

Only Gu Zhiyao and He Yi remained in the room.

They looked at each other.

After a long silence, Gu Zhiyao broke the silence, "He Yi, since we are divorced and the child is gone, we have absolutely no relationship. You don't need to come."

Yes, he really didn't need to come.

He never wanted to keep the child in the first place, but he had to agree to the divorce in order to get her to agree. Now that the child is gone, even though it was lost in that way, since she is healthy, what is the point of him coming back?

He was supposed to be busy today, in fact, he has endless work every day. He only had this one hour of free time at noon, during which he should have eaten a proper meal and rested. But he didn't even eat and had Quan Xinyu drive him here.

"Did you know beforehand that Wenya and Miss Zheng treated me like that?" Gu Zhiyao suddenly asked again. Seeing that he was silent, she continued, "Wenya said that they were there on your behalf to get rid of the child, but you clearly agreed with me that I would agree to a divorce and that you would let me give birth to the child. You see, I really intended to leave. Why did you go back on your word? I shouldn't have believed you."

"What did you mean by what you said before you fell into a coma? You knew me thirteen years ago? Where?" He Yi finally spoke, but asked about something else.
