PA Wen looked at his phone and saw the caller's name—Xiao Yaojing . Knowing that he might be digging his own grave if he picked up the phone, PA Wen quickly put his phone away .
Meanwhile, Ye Yuwei had left Gu Mansion and was standing at a junction trying to hail a taxi . Gu Juexi drove up and stopped his car beside Ye Yuwei . He told her to get in, but was ignored .
“You didn't bring any cash or your phone, how are you going to get to the hospital?” asked Gu Juexi exasperatedly .
Ye Yuwei stopped walking and looked at Gu Juexi sitting in his car scornfully . “Quit the fake concern act, Mr . Gu . ”
“Stop talking and get into the car,” said Gu Juexi impatiently, “The hospital might close if we go too late . ”
Ye Yuwei was speechless for a moment, but got into the car . “We are on the same page for the first time; this child can't exist . ”
The car fell silent .
Gu Juexi gripped the steering wheel tightly and began driving, his face an emotionless mask . He drove very slowly, and Ye Yuwei had her hand on her stomach throughout .
A child shouldn't come into this world if he is to be born without blessings . Moreover, she did not want her child to be as cold-blooded as the men of the Gu family .
They reached the hospital eventually despite Gu Juexi's slow driving .
The weather was gloomy and thunder rumbled threateningly in the sky .
Ye Yuwei got out of the car . She looked up at the lightning, one hand on the car door and the other on her stomach . Gu Juexi slammed the car door shut and looked at Ye Yuwei who was staring at the sky .
“Let's go,” said Gu Juexi miserably . As if worried one of them would change their minds, Gu Juexi went into the hospital without looking back .
Ye Yuwei closed the car door, took a deep breath, and followed Gu Juexi into the hospital .
None of them forced each other, none of them begged otherwise . There was no angry confrontation, no ruthless coercion .
Ye Yuwei underwent the check-up and waited for the results calmly while Gu Juexi followed emotionlessly .
It was as if the baby deserved to be removed just because he came into the lives of a couple in an unhappy marriage .
When the doctor asked for Ye Yuwei's availability for the surgery, all Ye Yuwei said was, “As soon as possible . ”
Gu Juexi stood behind Ye Yuwei, and his hands shook uncontrollably at her words .
The last time his hands had shaken like that was after the mission where most of his comrades in the army had been killed .
This was the second time: when he agreed to end the life of his own child .
The abortion was arranged at 3 in the afternoon . Ye Yuwei and Gu Juexi sat on the bench outside the operating theatre waiting, and for the first time, they sat together peacefully .
“He is almost 60 days old,” said Gu Juexi suddenly .
“It is just an embryo, the cell probably hasn't even properly divided,” said Ye Yuwei emotionlessly, but her clenched hands showed just how nervous she really was .
Gu Juexi seemed distracted and was not really listening to Ye Yuwei . He knew that Grandma had crossed Ye Yuwei's line the moment she brought Mom up .
She hated the Gu family .
She hated him, Gu Juexi .
And she was not doing it for his attention this time, she hated all of them for real .
Turns out this family is sick .
