I Refuse to be a Supporting Character Chapter 153

Chapter 153: Finale–Previous Life (1)

When Cheng Xin arrived at the hospital, her condition was in such an unstable state that Shao Chong hung up in a hurry .

He’ll just explain the situation to Gu Jin later when he goes back; since his wife and Cheng Xin were such close friends, Gu Jin will surely understand him . Shao Chong’s wrinkled brows slowly relaxed and a slight smile appeared on his lips .

Suddenly, Shao Chong’s heart skipped a beat, as if priceless something was lost . A sudden dizziness overcame him and his vision darkened .

After a moment of confusion, everything returned to peace once again, as if the sudden pain just now was simply an illusion .

At this time, the delivery room’s door opened and a nurse walked out . Shao Chong tried to ignore that uncomfortable feeling and urgently asked: “Hello, excuse me, how is she?”

The nurse glanced at him while wondering why this visitor was different from the other man who accompanied the pregnant woman for her prenatal examination . With a smile on her face, she replied: “She gave birth to a daughter . Both mother and daughter are doing well . ”

Shao Chong breathed a sigh of relief .

The Cheng parents joyfully smiled and quickly made their way towards the delivery room .

The moment the child cried loudly, Jing Hao arrived at the hallway of the hospital .

The two men nodded to each other . Jing Hao said ‘thank you’ and bypassed Shao Chong to find his wife and daughter .

Suddenly, Jing Hao’s footsteps stopped . He turned around, looked straight at the man, and said with a deep voice, “Shao Chong, you and Gu Jin should have a child too . ”

Shao Chong’s gaze stayed fixed for two seconds . His eyes focused at the door, where a family enjoyed a warm and joyful atmosphere .

He lowered his head as the corner of his lips raised to a mocking smile, but his heart was now relaxed, as if he had finally let go of a heavy burden he had been carrying for a long time .
 

But before he could truly smile, his cellphone rang again . He guessed it must be Gu Jin .

Since Cheng Xin just gave birth to a daughter, he should share this good news with her .

Shao Chong planned to wait here for two days until Cheng Xin returns home before he plans to return to Gu Jin . By then, he hoped to bring her the excitement of having a newborn so they can both have their own child soon .

Suddenly, when he heard the person’s reply on the other end of the line, Shao Chong’s expression changed instantly . His eyes were wide with shock as he shook his head in disbelief . His unsteady hands dropped his cellphone, making a dull ‘thud’ as it hit the floor .

The policeman’s calm and solemn voice echoed over and over again in his mind: “Three knives were stabbed into her lower abdomen, leaving a corpse with two dead…”

He could only hear a buzz in his ears due to his shock, when he suddenly recalled the phone call from Gu Jin .

He staggered over, picked up his phone, and checked on the recent calls . The last call was about two hours ago . Shao Chong kicked his cell phone far away as if it was something abhorrent, filled with bad luck .

The hospital floor was clean, bright and spotless . While the family in the delivery room were celebrating a new life, Shao Chong suddenly lost all of his strength and fell to the ground tragically, his eyes turning red .

On the road, who knows how many red lights he had slipped past . Shao Chong’s mind seemed blank all the way until he arrived . By then, the crime scene has already been sealed off .

With a pale face, Shao Chong circled not too far away . He couldn’t believe the news of Gu Jin’s death . No, not only Gu Jin, but also their child .

However, his hopes were shattered the next moment .
