Chapter 266 The child is gone
The wind in the valley was shrill and harsh, accompanied by Shen Yunyan's voice that sounded like a curse.
"Ning Xi! I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost!"
"Help!" The white clouds and blue sky suddenly spun wildly in her vision, and Ning Xi fell into the endless abyss involuntarily.
She opened her eyes suddenly, gasping for air.
There is a large snow-white ceiling above the head, and all that can be smelled in the nose is the scent of potion.
Ning Xi tried to move her arms, but what she felt was an unstoppable sting all over her body, as if all the bones in her body had been crushed by something, and she was completely unable to move.
She wanted to raise her head, but she coughed violently.
"Xiao Xi! Xiao Xi is awake!" Wen Mochen, who was guarding the side, exclaimed happily. At this time, He Zhao, who was napping in the chair on the other side, suddenly woke up and jumped up.
They crowded around Ning Xi and asked her whether she was thirsty, hungry or in pain.
Ning Xi didn't know what to say for a moment, so she could only look at them calmly.
The memories in her mind gradually came back, and then she remembered what happened on the cliff. It turned out that she was not dead.
"Where is Gu Huaijing? Is he okay?"
Thinking of Gu Huaijing who fell off the cliff at the same time, Ning Xi's heart ached and she hurriedly asked.
Wen Mochen and He Zhao looked at each other, and finally Wen Mochen answered: "He was seriously injured and has undergone surgery. He is fine now and is recuperating in another ward."
Wen Mochen was afraid that Ning Xi would continue to ask questions, so he hurriedly took a water bottle with a straw and put it to her mouth: "Xiao Xi, you just woke up, don't talk too much."
Seeing her uncle's red and swollen eyelids, Ning Xi vaguely felt something was wrong, and she tentatively reached out to touch her belly.
Wen Mochen hurriedly held down her arm: "Xiao Xi, the doctor said you should have a good rest for two days. There is no major health problem."
He Zhao also echoed: "Yes! Xiao Xi, you are fine!"
But Ning Xi's heart slowly sank. Before she fell off the cliff, she was bleeding. It might have been a symptom of threatened miscarriage!
Stubbornly pushing away Wen Mochen's hand, she touched her belly tremblingly.
It was flat with no undulations at all. Ning Xi groped back and forth in panic. No, no signs of life at all?
her child...
"Uncle! My child...my child, he..."
Ning Xi struggled to sit up, desperately grabbing Wen Mochen's arm and shaking it, with a frightened and helpless expression on her face.
"Xiao Xi! I..." Before Wen Mochen could say anything, tears were already flowing down like broken pearls.
"My child is still alive, right?" Turning to He Zhao with disbelieving eyes, Ning Xi said almost pleadingly: "He Zhao! Tell me, nothing happened to my child?"
He Zhao's clenched fists dropped to his sides, and his always sunny smiling face was now extremely sad.
"Xiao Xi, calm down first..."
He looked steadily at the man in front of him and slowly lowered his head: "The doctor said that your injury was too serious and the child is gone..."
Then he gritted his teeth and told what happened.
Ning Xi fell into coma on the spot after falling off the cliff. Although she was protected in Gu Huaijing's arms, the impact was too great for the child to withstand.
Fortunately, an old tree grew up about 20 meters below the cliff, and the two of them managed to save their lives.
Shen Yunyan was already dead when he fell.
The sharp branch even penetrated Gu Huaijing's shoulder, but at this moment he only focused on protecting Ning Xi.
He persisted until rescuers arrived, half of his body was stained red with blood.
In the ambulance, even if he fell into coma, Gu Huaijing did not let go of Ning Xi's hand.
It wasn't until Ning Xi and himself were sent to the emergency room that he had no choice but to let go.
……
Wen Mochen calmed down a little now: "It's my uncle's fault. His plan wasn't thorough enough. He shouldn't have let you take this risk!"
"Uncle, I don't blame you for not thinking about this..."
Ning Xi stared blankly at her lower abdomen. She didn't know how long it had passed before a heartbreaking cry rushed out of the ward.
On the other side of the corridor, a staggering man in a hospital gown struggled to come over. His face was extremely pale, and his head and arms were bandaged, and the blood dyed the whites red.
Not far from the door of the ward, he heard the cry. It was Ning Xi's cry.
After being married for more than five years, he had never heard Ning Xi cry so heartbroken and in pain.
Gu Huaijing stood at the door, unable to move as if his legs were nailed to the ground.
Their child is gone...
If he hadn't forgotten Ning Xi, none of this would have happened!
Gu Huaijing couldn't help but staggered forward. After walking for an unknown amount of time, he found himself standing on the hospital terrace.
He suddenly burst out crying...
How will he face Ning Xi in the future?
