Chapter 648: Chapter 648: Terminal Illness Chapter 648: Chapter 648: Terminal Illness Xia Yu was slightly stunned. She actually just went to pick up her phone, but in that moment, she didn’t know what happened; she just let herself fall.
She didn’t want to die, but at that moment, she really had the thought of dying…
If she had died then, everything would’ve ended.
If she hadn’t died, she didn’t know if she would ever have the courage to try suicide again.
Xia Yu didn’t know how to answer Mo Jun and simply turned her head away as her eyes reddened once more.
Every time Mo Jun saw her, she was crying, her eyes seemed to be filled with despairing sadness…
Mo Jun asked puzzledly, “What’s wrong? Are you sick, or do you have some sort of difficulty? I think you must be in great pain, otherwise, you wouldn’t have had such thoughts. But your child is already so grown, so I think no matter how sad you are, you should be strong…”
“It’s useless.” Xia Yu shook her head in despair. “There’s no way to be strong, no hope, nothing… It’s me who has ruined this child; he should have never come into this world…”
Mo Jun was even more astonished.
“What’s really going on? Why would you say that?”
As if she couldn’t bear it any longer, Xia Yu seemed to find an outlet for her pain, she said sorrowfully, “I’m sick, the child is sick too! We are going to die, both of us will die!”
“Why?” Mo Jun asked in shock, “What disease do you have? Can’t it be treated?”
“HIV…” Xia Yu looked at her and replied in despair.
Mo Jun’s face turned pale, it was… AIDS…
This was an incurable disease.
No wonder she was so distraught, thinking about death.
Mo Jun found it hard to believe and asked, “How could this happen? How did you get infected…?”
“I don’t know.” Xia Yu shook her head, her pain intensifying, “Everything was fine before, then suddenly, it just happened. The father of the child is very healthy, and so was I… But I really don’t know why it suddenly came to this…”
Many people contract this disease by accident. Like blood transfusions, which can easily lead to infection…
So she guessed she must have been infected accidentally too.
But the odds of that are incredibly slim, yet once infected, it’s a sentence to despair.
What’s even more despairing is that she was pregnant, and her child couldn’t escape this fate either.
Mo Jun also felt suffocated and she didn’t know how to comfort her, “Does the child’s father know about this?”
Xia Yu’s expression stiffened for a moment.
She said sadly, “He doesn’t know. I haven’t told him.”
“Maybe you should tell him the truth. I think you would feel a bit better with him by your side.”
This time Xia Yu didn’t answer, and Mo Jun didn’t dare to say anything more, after all, she didn’t understand the situation.
At that moment, Little Ping’an pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing Mo Jun, he ran towards her with a delighted, stumbling gait.
“Be careful…” Mo Jun quickly went to catch him.
Little Ping’an hugged her and revealed two little dimples, sweetly saying to her, “Mommy, missed you…”
Listening to this melted Mo Jun’s heart.
“Darling, mommy missed you too!” she said as she kissed his forehead. Little Ping’an became even more cheerful and content, clinging to her neck, leaning against her.
Watching this scene, Xia Yu felt envious and somewhat puzzled, “Is he your child?”
Mo Jun shook her head, embarrassedly saying, “No, but I really like him, and he thinks of me as his mom too…”
“Is mommy!” Little Ping’an suddenly said with conviction, as if he understood their conversation.
