Not only them, but my father-in-law and mother-in-law are also present.

Gu Juan arrived quickly, instinctively positioning himself between us.

They all protected that mother and child and remained wary of me.

"When did you find out?" he furrowed his brows and questioned me.

I truthfully told him.

He pondered for a moment, then turned to instruct Zhao Qiqi, "Take the child home first."

My in-laws immediately shielded Zhao Qiqi and the child and ran away.

"Go home first."

I obediently followed him into the car.

Our home had already been smashed, so we went to a hotel instead.

He took a few deep breaths and calmly looked at me, "He is my child."

I remained silent.

"He has a congenital heart disease and needs surgery soon."

I nodded in agreement.

A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, as if he was shocked that I wasn't causing a scene like before.

I was also puzzled. I should have caused a scene at the hospital.

No, I should have rushed over and grabbed Zhao Qiqi's face when I first saw them as a happy family of three, pushing Gu Juan onto the road to be hit by a car.

But I didn't. Why?

"Here's the plan." Gu Juan took out his phone and searched for something. "I'll have my assistant accompany you on a vacation to another city."

I lazily sat on the bed, "Pregnant women can't fly during the first three months. Didn't Zhao Qiqi tell you?"

His face turned pale, "Stop being so sarcastic."

I sighed and stopped talking, waiting for his next proposal.

"If you can't fly, then take the high-speed train."

In any case, I was definitely going to be sent away.

I guess the deadline is when his precious son finishes the surgery, right?

"Okay."

His throat rolled, "Wanwan, I'll apologize to you after the child's surgery."

There's no need anymore.

Four years ago, he said he would make Zhao Qiqi get an abortion and promised he wouldn't hurt me again.

But they joined forces to deceive me and let this child grow to four years old.

Now, I'm going to be expelled from the country.

Gu Juan's phone rang; it seemed that something had happened to the child again.

Without even looking at me, he rushed out.

Blood is thicker than water.

My mother was right, as long as that child remains, Gu Juan will never turn back.

I had a long dream at night, dreaming of the mountain in Gu Juan's hometown.

Standing on the mountaintop was my teenage self.

He smiled at me while holding sour jujubes, his eyes shining brightly.

As I continued to eat, tears streamed down my face, startling him.

"Gu Juan, why would you treat me like this?"

He froze, holding my arm stiffly, and didn't say another word.

The next morning, I went to the hospital.

Doctor: "Are you sure you want to terminate this pregnancy?"

"I'm sure."
