Chapter 242: Committing Suicide
A specialist came here on time for the next few days, providing psychological counselling for Qin Muxuan. It might work well, because the gravida asked for food today.
“I want minced pork congee with a preserved egg.” Qin Muxuan opened her mouth suddenly.
Confused for a while, Xiaoqi realized that Qin Muxuan wanted to have congee. “Could you wait a moment, Ms. Qin? I’m gonna prepare food for you.” Qin Muxuan was finally willing to eat, which made Xiaoqi beam.
Xiaoqi rushed to cook congee and served it. Qin Muxuan took a sip with a spoon in her hand.
“Doctor said you should be a on a liquid diet. You can have normal food two days later.”
Nodding, Qin Muxuan slowly had the congee. Xiaoqi felt relieved because Qin Muxuan was willing to eat. Xiaoqi then walked out of the room and locked the door.
As soon as Xiaoqi left, Qin Muxuan put away the bowl. She spat the congee in her mouth into a dustbin. Rising to her feet slowly, she felt dizzy because she didn’t have food for days.
Qin Muxuan stood still to steady herself. After she felt better, she moved slowly over to the table on which there was a kettle. The woman poured herself a glass of water to gargle.
Her stomach had been empty for several days. Nausea overcame her after she swallowed down the congee. Not knowing the reason, Qin Muxuan missed the taste of minced pork congee with the preserved egg. However, she was determined to leave.
Fumbling for a knife she had hidden in a cabinet, Qin Muxuan slowly headed to the bathroom.
The pallid woman in the mirror stared back at Qin Muxuan. She turned on the hot water, washing herself impassively. After finishing that, she searched through the room for cosmetics. She wanted to leave decently.
In the end, she found her bag. They confiscated her phone but left her bag in which things were intact.
Qin Muxuan reddened her lips and applied blush on her cheeks with her fingers. She looked better.
Qin Muxuan was a beauty. She seldom wore any makeup, so a light makeup could add lustre to her. However, she was much slenderer than before.
She changed the water in the bathtub. With the knife in her hand, Qin Muxuan slashed her wrist without mercy.
Blood gushed out, which polluted the water. Stroking her belly with another hand, Qin Muxuan cast a last longing look at it.
‘Sorry, honey. Please forgive me.’
As time went by, the woman gradually lost her consciousness. It seemed that she was having a dream in which there was Gu Zijin, Qin Xiaobai and a girl.
The gravida became drowsy. She heard Xiaoqi’s voice and the hurried footsteps.
There was a sharp smell of disinfectant in the corridor of a hospital. The light of the Emergency Room was on.
Xiaoqi and two bodyguards stood before the E. R. Her eyes were red. She looked anxious. Xiaoqi had never expected that Qin Muxuan would commit suicide. Qin Muxuan was covered in blood when Xiaoqi discovered her. The scene occupied Xiaoqi’s mind.
“Where’s she? Where’s she?” Elderly Lady Gu cried out abruptly.
Xiaoqi turned around, finding the old lady and Yan Yuxiao.
“Doctors are rescuing Ms. Qin.” Xiaoqi reported in a trembling voice. She was scared.
“Qin Muxuan, you’re so cruel!”
“Grandma, calm down. Doctors are taking care of her. She will be fine.”
Noticing Elderly Lady Gu was gasping because of wrath, Yan Yuxiao patted the old lady’s back to soothe her.
“You don’t understand! My great-grandson’s in her belly!” Elderly Lady Gu hit the ground heavily with her walking stick. Yan Yuxiao helped the old lady sit on a bench near them.
A glimmer of jealousy crossed Yan Yuxiao’s eyes.
‘It’s just a kid. I can also give birth to a baby.’
There came hurried footsteps in the passageway while Yan Yuxiao comforted Elderly Lady Gu.
Gu Zijin stared at the E. R.’s door with bulging eyes. Striding forward, he was about to break in.
“Zijin!”
“Fuck off!” Gu Zijin shook off Yan Yuxiao’s hands abruptly.
The woman almost fell onto the ground. Fortunately, Xiaoqi seized her hand and pulled immediately. Yan Yuxiao’s eyes were filled with tears. “Zijin, doctors are operating on her now. You can’t enter.”
However, it was impossible for Gu Zijin to listen to her. He insisted on pushing open the door. Noticing that, Elderly Lady Gu instantly ordered bodyguards to stop Gu Zijin.
“Let go of me!” Gu Zijin bellowed. He bashed a bodyguard on the face.
The bodyguard collapsed onto the floor. Another one had to bite the bullet, trying to wring Gu Zijin’s hand.
“If you stop the operation, you will kill that woman.” Elderly Lady Gu reprimanded her grandson drily.
Hearing her words, Gu Zijin gathered his wits. He stood before the E. R., clenching and unclenching his fists. It seemed that he suffered. After a while, he gnashed, “If I lose her, I won’t forgive you.”
Gu Zijin’s eyes stunned the old lady. ‘What does he mean? Am I not his grandma anymore?’
“How dare you!” Elderly Lady Gu snorted. She scolded Gu Zijin but did not dare to look him in the eye. She knew she would become a murderer if Qin Muxuan died.
“Zijin’s outraged. Don’t take his words seriously, grandma.” Yan Yuxiao tried to ease tensions. “Right, Zijin?” She glanced at Gu Zijin.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
The man squinted at her. The coldness in his eyes frightened Yan Yuxiao who shut her mouth immediately.
“Daddy!” A crispy voice came up behind Gu Zijin.
Hiding his sharp expression, Gu Zijin turned around and held Qin Xiaobai in his arms.
“Daddy, is Dabai in there?” Qin Xiaobai peered at his father with tears in the eyes. The kid jumped into Li Cheng’s car and came here hastily after he got the news.
“Yeah. Don’t cry, babe. Mommy will be fine.” Gu Zijin consoled Xiaobai and himself.
Hearing that, Qin Xiaobai couldn’t hold back his tears.
