The bright red liquid gushed out of He Jing's abdomen like water from an open faucet. In just a short while, it pooled at Qiao Yinuo's feet.
"Something's wrong! He Jing's having a miscarriage!"
A miscarriage?
Qiao Yinuo turned pale with fright.
It was a special time, and at the hospital, apart from patients, no one could enter without a health check report.
The temperature difference between day and night was quite large in April. At night, the air was bitterly cold.
After an unknown amount of time, a young doctor came down and walked up to Luo Yize, Qiao Yinuo, and Hou Lei.
Although the doctor's face was tightly covered by a mask, his voice sounded extremely serious.
"There are two things you need to prepare yourselves for."
Luo Yize's first reaction was that the child couldn't be his.
His expression relaxed noticeably. If that was the case, he could clear his name.
"The patient has been saved, but the baby couldn't be saved. Also, Ms. He may never be able to have children again."
At this moment, although Qiao Yinuo was happy for Luo Yize that He Jing had got her comeuppance, she still felt extremely guilty about her mistake at the barbecue restaurant earlier.
"Mr. Luo, seeing Ms. He in this state is a good thing for you. But if you look at it from her perspective, think about how much harm has been done to her?"
"I know. I'm willing to take full responsibility for this."
Hearing Luo Yize say this, Qiao Yinuo was puzzled. "A Ze, you hate her so much. Why are you still going to help her?"
Luo Yize closed his eyes tightly. It was obvious that he was in a very complicated mood.
When they left the hospital, they had to go to the police station for an investigation with the police. Fortunately, an officer surnamed Yu at the police station knew Hou Lei. When they were taken in, Officer Yu took the three of them to his office.
Qiao Yinuo felt a bit uncomfortable seeing the police treating them so warmly, as if they were family.
As soon as the office door closed and the three of them sat on the sofa, Officer Yu's worried expression showed immediately.
"Brother Lei, old classmate, I really didn't expect this. I've helped you so many times, but I never thought such a thing would happen."
Hearing this, Qiao Yinuo started to tremble. Why did she have to grab the wine bottle? It was like a childish game that led to her chasing and being chased by He Jing.
Even if she resented her rival in love, she never meant to cause her to have a miscarriage. It was bad enough that the baby was lost, but now He Jing had lost her ability to bear children.
"I know there's a personal feud between you and He Jing, and you wanted to clear Mr. Luo's name. But couldn't you have talked things out instead of getting into a fight? She was pregnant. How could she withstand such折腾?"
"Sorry to trouble you, Lao Yu. Actually, my intention was just to expose He Jing's plot. I never thought this would happen."
"Alright," Officer Yu suddenly changed the subject. "A Hai and He Jing's father are involved in contract fraud. According to the information we've gathered, He Jing's father runs a media company. To be honest, his company has been operating illegally. Under the guise of training artists, they've been scamming people who want to become top - tier stars out of their money. I've received many reports and have been wanting to arrest him, but I just don't have the evidence yet. Now, after A Hai quit the newspaper, he bribed He Jing's father and became a member of this company."
No wonder A Hai and He Jing's parents and family had joined forces that day to sign that cooperation agreement with Luo Yize.
Moreover, every clause in the contract violated relevant laws and regulations.
Luo Yize had clearly been tricked. Although he had Hou Lei's help in secret, at that time, out of helplessness, he had no choice but to be at their mercy.
"Also, this is the DNA test result of the fetus in He Jing's belly. The child's genes have nothing to do with Mr. Luo."
Officer Yu handed the test result to Hou Lei.
They passed it around and looked at it. When the test result finally landed in Luo Yize's hands, he frowned tightly. As expected, He Jing had already hurt Luo Yize a great deal emotionally. This time, her deception had added new wounds on top of the old ones.
Luo Yize's deep, ink - like eyes suddenly turned cold. "I will never forgive her. When did you do the DNA test on He Jing?"
"I secretly took He Jing out. Under the pretext of having a meal, I took her to the hospital for a check - up. After the result came out, I didn't tell her the truth. Then I had a meal at KFC with her." Hou Lei explained.
According to Hou Lei, now that the test result was out, it was up to Luo Yize to tell her.
After some time, He Jing was discharged from the hospital and was picked up by A Hai and taken back to the villa.
One day, Qiao Yinuo and Luo Yize came to that villa.
The villa in front of them piqued Qiao Yinuo's interest. With such a retro layout, it was easy to guess that He Jing came from a wealthy family.
This villa was where He Jing lived with her parents. Usually, her parents were at the company, so most of the time, He Jing was alone there, with A Hai taking good care of her.
Remembering what Officer Yu had said last night, she now knew that after He Jing betrayed Luo Yize, she had chosen to be with A Hai, her childhood friend. But she never expected that just as A Hai was about to become a father, her actions would surely invite A Hai's crazy revenge.
Since being discharged from the hospital, He Jing was no longer her usual self. She was twice as thin as the last time they saw her. Her long, golden hair couldn't hide her pale and haggard face.
This was hardly the appearance of a popular actress. She looked more like a cancer patient.
"He Jing!" Luo Yize stepped forward and shouted her name when he saw her standing on the balcony, holding onto the railing.
The moment He Jing turned her head, the look on her face made all of Luo Yize's hatred for her disappear. Instead, he felt a pang of pity.
After a while, Luo Yize's face darkened. "Are you feeling better?"
He Jing nodded. Tears welled up in her eyes and rolled down her cheeks involuntarily when she saw Luo Yize.
It seemed that Luo Yize was unmoved by her tears.
"A Ze, I feel better now that I've seen you!"
He Jing and Luo Yize got closer. "See? I'm so happy to see you that I'm in tears."
"I'm not here to see you. It's Yinuo who wants to see you." He said, avoiding He Jing's gaze.
