Xia Zhi pounded on the door with all her might, but no one came, her despair reaching an extreme.
She sat back against the door listlessly and began to cry loudly.
He Jinnan, what should I do? The baby can't be saved.
Suddenly, someone pushed the door open from outside. Caught off guard, she fell forward onto the ground, anxiously protecting her belly with her hands.
Her eyes filled with hope as she looked back, only to be met with the expected, extreme disappointment. How could it possibly be Song Wanyi entering?
He Jinhong strode over, yanked her up by the arm without any pity, and slapped her across the face. The sound was sharp and loud, and he struck with force, causing Xia Zhi to stagger and fall back to the ground.
"This is your lesson!" He Jinhong cursed angrily, "Xia Zhi, don't you fucking know what's good for you!"
Xia Zhi felt a cramping pain in her stomach and her cheek burned. She wiped the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand, wiping away the blood.
