She pried his hand away forcefully, turned around, and lay back down on the bed, leaving him with her cold back.
Rong Shaoze was stunned, muttering to himself, "That can’t be our child, you’re still lying to me..."
Lin Xinlan really wanted to sneer, but she knew she could never make things clear with this kind of person anymore.
"Yes, he’s not your child. You don’t deserve to be his father." She delivered another blow.
Rong Shaoze’s pupils constricted, his body stiffened, and only he knew the taste of bitterness in his heart.
Lin Xinlan closed her eyes; her verbal retaliation against Rong Shaoze brought no satisfaction because she was no different from him, she had little right to blame him.
In the beginning, hadn’t she also cruelly wanted to kill Xiaocong?
Last time she was pregnant, she similarly harbored thoughts of killing the child...
Both of them were unfit to be parents, it was better that the child wasn’t born, as they both didn’t deserve to be his parents.
Rong Shaoze simply couldn’t fall asleep, his mind becoming clearer and clearer.
Leaning against the headboard, his eyes dark and deep, his expression solemn, he fell into a boundless chain of thoughts.
He didn’t know if Lin Xinlan had fallen asleep, when he suddenly spoke in a soft voice, "Lin Xinlan, I will give you an explanation tomorrow. The wrongs I’ve done, I will bear them alone."
What answered him was the ringtone of his phone.
Who could it be calling at this late hour?
He glanced at the screen, it was actually the phone number from the old house, he answered with confusion.
"Young master, the madam has suddenly fainted, please come and see her immediately."
Rong Shaoze hung up the phone, immediately got out of bed to dress, and left the house in a rush.
Lin Xinlan listened to the sound of the car engine fading in the distance downstairs before slowly sitting up.
Her own phone rang at the same time, it was a call from Rong’s mother.
"I’ve already got my hands on the divorce agreement. Tonight and tomorrow during the day, I will find ways to keep Shaoze occupied. After the press conference, leave B City and never appear again, do you understand?"
"I understand, I won’t show up again," Lin Xinlan nodded.
After tomorrow, she would go to a faraway place to live for the rest of her life, never to let Rong Shaoze find her again.
After Rong’s mother hung up, Lin Xinlan couldn’t fall asleep anymore.
Thinking about leaving tomorrow, her heart was filled with anticipation, with nervousness...
She got out of bed to pack her things, only taking a small backpack with her. The unnecessary things, there was no need to take them.
When Rong Shaoze arrived at the old house, seeing his mother lying weakly on the bed, he walked up to her with a frown and asked with concern, "Mom, how are you? What happened to make you faint all of a sudden?"
Rong’s mother took his hand, her voice weak as she said, "Don’t worry, I’m fine, I’ll be okay after I rest for a bit."
"Dad, what did the doctor say?" He turned his head to ask his father.
Rong’s father answered, "The doctor said your mom has low blood sugar. She’s had an injection and taken some medication, she’ll be fine tomorrow."
"Shaoze, you shouldn’t go back tonight. Stay here. It’s too exhausting to travel back and forth in the middle of the night," Rong’s mother urged quickly.
"Alright, I won’t go back tonight."
"Young master, please have some tea." A servant brought him a cup of tea. He took it, drank a big gulp, and handed the cup back to the servant.
Rong’s mother and father exchanged a glance without leaving a trace, and Rong’s father smiled and said, "Shaoze, you should go rest now, you must be worn out from the day’s work. You need to be spirited for facing the reporters tomorrow, don’t appear tired. I’m here to take care of your mom, if there’s anything, I’ll call you."
