Section 4

You are not yet qualified to lay a hand on my mother; she has a heart condition, and you had better not make things worse.

"I am reprimanding my daughter-in-law; who do you think you are to come out and lecture me? She has become so unreasonable now because of the influence of women like you, who are neither here nor there!" Lin Luyun pushed back against Duoduo, who was approaching her.

Before long, the phone received a reply from Lin Muchen, asking which hospital and which ward they were in, stating that he would come over immediately. Duoduo replied while saying, "He seems quite concerned about you"

After Duoduo finished sending the text message, she brought a basin of hot water to wipe Manjun's body

"You went to the hospital, something so important happened, why didn't you tell me? Why did you conceal the safety of the child and yourself from me? Come with me, come back home!" He remained silent for a moment before speaking.

She said with a hint of sarcasm, "It's just that their father is too competent."

Man Jun stepped forward and grabbed Duo Duo, but accidentally, Lin Lu Yun kicked the right side of Man Jun's abdomen, causing a dull pain that she could not ignore. At that moment, Zhuo Yao stood in front of his mother, raised his arm, and forcefully restrained Duo Duo's arm. With a slight twist, Duo Duo winced in pain.

How lovely a name it is, the father loves his daughter even before she is born! Now that Li Sheng has been born, he is still unaware. If it weren't for me secretly calling to inform him about the previous matters, you wouldn't have suffered such severe bleeding and been hospitalized for a premature birth. This time, I haven't told him; I want to wait for you to wake up and decide. What do you think, should we give him a call?

It is already this time, and you are still thinking of him

Manjun suddenly felt a warm flow between her legs. Before she could get up to look, the glass cup in Duoduo's hand shattered on the ground, and in a panic, she exclaimed: "Blood... so much blood..." What happened next was a blur to her; she only remembered being lifted onto the ambulance and then being placed on the operating table

He took it. Two months ago, when we were on vacation in Paris, we had an examination, and he found out it was a girl. He was extremely happy and named her Li Sheng, Tong Li Sheng. A pair of children is the echo of our love. Li Sheng also carries the meaning of 'Parisian song.'" She recalled, immersed in the happiness of several months ago.

It is not possible at the moment. I just went and also viewed it through a video. You should rest well first; I will go tomorrow and take photos to show you. Duoduo brought her some radish soup to drink

When she woke up again, Duoduo was sleeping by the bedside.

"I am fine, but you got slapped because of me, and I am the one who feels truly sad. Duoduo, I am sorry." She said weakly, and only after they left did she show her vulnerability, feeling unbearable pain in her abdomen, beads of sweat emerging one by one on her forehead, her face turning pale.

"Manjun, are you alright? Did something just bump into your stomach? Quickly check it out." Duoduo, disregarding her own condition, observed Manjun's situation with keen eyes

Man Jun trembled with anger. She knew she could not let her emotions affect her pregnancy and tried to control herself, but Lin Luyun's face looked so twisted and ferocious. She retorted, "I will let this go for the sake of your status as the child's grandmother, but do not think that every woman is like you, using her own flesh and blood as a pawn to cling to the powerful!"

"What qualifications do you have to speak to me, an elder?" Lin Luyun raised her hand and slapped Manjun heavily across the face

His expression darkened as he said, "You have already won the lawsuit; shouldn't we reconcile as before?" He spoke almost in a plea.

Good sister, what is this for? The baby is called Li Sheng, right? It sounds very nice. Did you name it or did he?

She felt a bit disappointed—Zhuo Yao had not called her

She is subtly mocking Lin Luyun for being a mistress and giving birth, as well as the incident of entering the Tong family gate.

Duoduo took out Manjun's phone and said: "He Xijia sent a message asking if you want to eat roast duck, she will bring it to you. Also, Lin Muchen has called many times, I didn't answer, do you want to return the call?"

In an instant, crimson blood flowed from Manjun's lips

She feigned pride to conceal the inner conflict, and seeing his weary and angry expression, she felt quite uncomfortable inside

Duoduo was startled awake by her movements. She raised her head and saw that Manjun was awake. She said, "Amitabha, thank goodness everything is fine. You scared me to death. This time you walked through the gates of hell, with placental abruption and significant bleeding. Fortunately, you were sent to the hospital in time, and the baby is safe. However, you have lost a lot of blood and must stay in the hospital for a while. The baby was born prematurely and is a bit weak; he has already been placed in an incubator."

Lin Luyun indeed knows how to assess the situation, stepping forward to slap Duoduo's face twice. The sound of the slaps pierced deeply into Manjun's heart, and she stared at Tong Zhuoyao in despair, this man, so heartless

"Why do you still have the time to come here and glare at me? The Tong family is in chaos right now; you should go handle your own matters. As for the divorce, it can wait; I will not go back on my word and refuse to sign." She expressed this sentiment once again.

We are fortunate to have you this time; otherwise, we do not know what would have happened to my daughter and me

Seeing the situation was dire, she rushed out, rolled up her sleeves, and was about to strike Lin Luyun, shouting: "You old woman, how dare you hit a pregnant woman? Do you have any humanity left? She is carrying your son's flesh and blood, how could you lay a hand on her?"

The arrival of Lin Luyun has plunged a situation that might have been alleviated into an even greater vortex

"You send a text message to Lin Muchen, just say that I am in the hospital, and ask him not to tell Zhuo Yao." She did not want to look at her phone, her eyes were swollen and painful, and the incision was also throbbing.

She then smiled and said, "So when can I go meet the baby?"

He did not speak, merely gazing at her, his expression gradually softening, like an inflatable monster that had its air plug removed, becoming soft and flabby

"Let go of Duoduo! Lin Luyun, if you dare to touch her again, do you believe I will call the police to arrest you! And you, Tong Zhuoyao, if you don't want to see me dead, keep your distance from me and take your crazy mother far away, I don't want to see you!" She supported Duoduo.

"Having lost the lawsuit, are you here to challenge me? I have nothing to say to you. If you want a divorce, I will sign the papers immediately"

Manjun saw that she was bleeding and had a bandage on her abdomen. Her greatest concern was about the child.

She turned back to look inside, and Duoduo quickly lowered her head and walked into the bathroom

"Son, what are you doing? Isn't this woman harming you enough? Why are you still begging her for anything? The more humble you are, the more she will take advantage of you. In what way have we, the Tong family, wronged her that she would retaliate against us mother and son like this? Now the whole company is in an uproar, and you actually let it go and still seek her out. Are you trying to drive your mother to her grave?" Lin Luyun said with deep sorrow.

"You have lost, Zhuo Yao. Setting aside the lawsuit, between you and me, you have lost."

He is a doctor, and he has arrived. He can help me clarify the specific situation in the hospital, as he is familiar with the hospital's procedures. I also want to bring Li Sheng back to my side as soon as possible," she said

"No more fighting, he is currently overwhelmed at the company and has no time to spare. I do not want to add to his troubles. As long as mother and daughter are safe, that is enough. After a while, as the due date approaches, he will surely come to ask," she said.

"Mom, this is a matter between my wife and me, you should not interfere any further!" he said coldly

"What are two slaps! Why does your face look so bad? Did I hurt you? Quickly lie down on the bed." Duoduo supported her, helped her lie on her side on the bed, and then went to pour some water

Li Hui and the soon-to-be-born Li Sheng, a son and a daughter, are our heartfelt wishes, and now we have them both. You, who repeatedly claim to love your children more than your own life, yet wish to leave them, to leave their father, do you truly consider yourself a qualified mother

Duoduo cannot swallow this anger, who is Guan Linlu's mother and mother-in-law, grabbing her hair and wrestling with her.

"Was it her who tipped you off? Such alarmist talk, am I not standing right in front of you? Rest assured, Li Sheng is our child, and even if we divorce, I will ensure that the child is healthy and safe in your care. Your anxiety stems from this child, and so does mine. As Li Sheng's mother, I will protect her with my life"

Man Jun escaped from Zhuo Yao's embrace, observing coldly. The mother-in-law relationship she had painstakingly established with Lin Luyun was shattered due to Lin Luyun's repeated refusal to allow her to see Li Hui. Lin Luyun once again used Li Hui as a threat, which was something she could not accept

Her trick is nothing more than using the fetus in her womb to coerce you? She doesn't care anymore, so why should you? There are plenty of women who want to have children for you. As for this child, whether she wants to give birth or not, it is not certain that the Tong family will accept it!" Lin Luyun's harsh words provoked Manjun.

He released his hand and turned to leave. Lin Luyun, seeing this, followed behind Zhuoyao

At such a close distance, she could smell the familiar scent on him, his broad chest, and the tenderness in his eyes. His finger still bore a wedding ring, while hers had been removed.

She tried to push him away, but in the process of doing so, she became so enamored with this moment that her movements were slow, wanting to absorb more of the warmth of his embrace. This mutual torment, is this the situation she desires?

"Did someone call me?" she asked

He suddenly made a gesture—embracing her, he murmured: "I have lost everything, because all I wanted was to win you."
