The president's wife wants to run away

Chapter 131 Pain

“With my children!”

This sentence was like a sharp ice spike, piercing my heart fiercely, tearing all my hopes and happiness into pieces. I looked at him in disbelief, my lips trembling, but I couldn't make any sound. My child... is not Zhong Yuxuan's... but Li Luoyao and this man's...

How can it be? !

My vision went dark and I almost fainted. Zhong Yuxuan held me up, his face was frighteningly pale, and his deep eyes were full of pain and self-blame. He held my hand tightly, but the warmth of his palm made me feel very strange.

"Luo Xue, you..." He spoke with difficulty, but didn't know what to say. I could feel his pain and struggle, but all of this could not make up for the pain in my heart.

"No, I don't believe it! You are lying to me, right?!" I shook his hand off and fell weakly on the chair. My tears could not stop flowing down, and every drop seemed to burn my soul.

The man sneered, took out a file bag from his pocket, threw it on the table, and said, "Look for yourself."

I opened the file bag with shaking hands, and inside was a DNA test report. The report clearly stated: The parent-child relationship between Li Luoxue and the child was not established. And on another report, the child's father column clearly had that man's name written on it!

My world completely collapsed at this moment. My child, the child I had carried for ten months and given birth to, was not mine...

I bit my lips tightly to stop myself from crying. My heart seemed to be torn into pieces, and every piece was bleeding. I couldn't accept this fact, and I couldn't face Zhong Yuxuan.

He must be very disappointed, right? He loves the child so much, but the child is not his...

I didn't dare to look into his eyes, I was afraid I would see disgust and hatred in his eyes. I wanted to escape from here, escape from this place that suffocated me.

"Luo Xue..." Zhong Yuxuan's voice was very soft, but it was like a heavy hammer, hitting my heart hard.

I didn't look back, for I was afraid that I would lose control of my emotions and break down in front of him. I stood up and stumbled out.

"Luo Xue!" Zhong Yuxuan caught up with me and grabbed my wrist.

I turned my head, looked at him with tears in my eyes, and asked in a hoarse voice, "What else do you want to say?" I shook his hand off, but he pulled me into his arms. His breath surrounded me tightly, with a familiar smell, but it made me feel extremely strange and scared. His arms, once my warmest haven, are now like a cage, trapping me in endless pain and despair.

"Let me go!" I struggled, trying to escape from his arms, to escape from this place that was suffocating me.

"Luo Xue, listen to me..." His voice was low and hoarse, with a barely perceptible tremor, but it aggravated my inner uneasiness.

"What else is there to say?" I raised my head, looked at him with tears in my eyes, and asked in a hoarse voice, "The child is not yours, you must be very disappointed, right?"

My heart felt like it was pierced by a needle, and the pain spread throughout my body. I couldn't imagine how Zhong Yuxuan, who was always proud and conceited, would feel when faced with such a truth.

He was silent, his deep eyes filled with complex emotions, pain, self-blame, and... a hint of struggle that I couldn't understand.

"Luo Xue, about the child..." He hesitated to speak, as if he was considering something.

"I will take care of the child's affairs." I interrupted him coldly. I didn't want to hear any more news about the child. Every word was like salt in my wounds.

"Luo Xue, listen to me!" He suddenly grabbed my shoulders, his tone hurried and tough, "Children's affairs are not what you think..."

"It's not what I thought. What is it then?" I asked with a wry smile, my heart aching.

He took a deep breath, as if he had made some important decision, and said slowly and heavily, "The child... is mine."

His words were like a bolt from the blue, exploding in my ears and making me dizzy.

"What did you say?" I looked at him in disbelief, wondering if I was hallucinating.

He looked at me with a firm and serious look in his eyes, and repeated word by word: "The child is mine."

My mind went blank, I couldn't think, couldn't understand what he said.

"But...DNA identification..." I muttered to myself, my voice trembling, as if I would collapse at any moment.

"That appraisal is fake." His tone was calm, but it seemed like he was talking about something insignificant.

"Fake?" I was stunned, totally unable to follow his train of thought. "Why...why do you do this?"

He looked at me with a complicated and unreadable look in his eyes, but did not answer my question.

My heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and I couldn't breathe. I felt that a huge secret was hidden beside me, and I was kept in the dark like a fool. "Why?" My voice trembled, as if it came from a faraway place, "Why do you do this? Who is it? Who is behind all this?"

Countless faces flashed through my mind, but I couldn't be sure who was behind this conspiracy. My eyes fell on Zhong Yuxuan's face. He pursed his lips tightly, frowned, and his eyes were full of pain and struggle, but he didn't dodge.

"Luo Xue, now is not the time to tell you. Believe me, I will find out everything and give you an explanation." His voice was low and hoarse, as if he was suppressing great pain.

"Explanation?" I smiled bitterly, tears welling up again. "What explanation? The truth about the child's origins has been revealed. What else is there to explain?"

My heart felt like it was torn into pieces, each piece was soaked with bitterness and despair. I couldn't accept that the man I loved so much had deceived me for so long, and I, like a fool, believed him.

"Li Luoxue, how long are you going to keep deceiving yourself here?" A sharp voice came from the door, with undisguised sarcasm and complacency.

I looked up and saw Li Luoyao standing at the door with a victorious smile on her face. Her eyes swept back and forth between me and Zhong Yuxuan, full of provocation and contempt.

"You knew all this a long time ago, right?" I looked at her coldly, my tone full of hatred.

Li Luoyao walked up to me, looked down at me, and sneered, "Yes, I have always known it. Do you really think you can fly up to the tree and become a phoenix? You are just a fake, a humble substitute!"

Every word she said was like a sharp blade, piercing my heart. I clenched my fists, my nails dug deep into my flesh, but I didn't feel any pain.

"Luo Xue, don't listen to her nonsense!" Zhong Yuxuan protected me behind him and glared at Li Luoyao. "This matter has nothing to do with her. I will give you an explanation."

"Explain?" Li Luoyao laughed as if she had heard something funny. "Zhong Yuxuan, how long are you going to lie to her? Do you think you really love her? You were just deceived by her appearance!"

Her words were like poisonous thorns that pierced my heart deeply, making me feel so painful that I wanted to die. My body was shaky and my eyes were blurry. Li Luoyao's shrill laughter and Zhong Yuxuan's anxious calls echoed in my ears.

I closed my eyes and let the darkness swallow me.

Gradually regaining consciousness, I tried to open my heavy eyelids, but the dazzling sunlight made me frown uncomfortably. What came into view was a snow-white wall, and the smell of disinfectant filled my nose, making me realize that I was in a hospital.

"Are you awake?" I heard Zhong Yuxuan's familiar voice, with a hint of fatigue and worry. I turned to look at him. His eyes were bloodshot and his beard was on his cheeks. It was obvious that he hadn't slept all night.

"Child...where is the child?" I struggled to get up, but he gently held my shoulders.

"The child is fine. The doctor said he was just frightened. He will be fine after a few days of rest." He comforted me gently, but his eyes could not hide his loneliness.

"Yuxuan, the child... is it really not yours?" I mustered up the courage to ask, my voice trembling, afraid to hear the answer that would break my heart.

He was silent for a moment, his deep eyes looked straight into my eyes, and he said firmly: "Luo Xue, I don't care whose child it is. I only know that I love you and I just want to be with you."

His words were like the warm sun in winter, melting the ice and snow in my heart. Yes, the child's background cannot be changed, but the feelings between him and me are real. I can't punish myself and our hard-earned love because of other people's mistakes.

"Yuxuan, I believe you." I held his hand, feeling the warmth of his palm, and a warm feeling surged in my heart.

In the following days, I tried to adjust my mood and actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment. Zhong Yuxuan stayed by my side and took good care of me. His gentleness and thoughtfulness made me more determined to be with him.

However, the peaceful days did not last long.

"Li Luoxue, do you think you can sit back and relax like this? Let me tell you, this has just begun!" A cold voice came from the other end of the phone, making me feel like I was falling into an ice cellar.

It was that mysterious man! My heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition came over me.

"What do you want to do?" I tried to stay calm, but my voice couldn't stop trembling.

"I want you to see with your own eyes how Zhong Yuxuan abandoned you and returned to Li Luoyao!" He hung up the phone, leaving only a creepy busy tone.

My hands fell limply, and the phone slipped from my palm and fell to the floor with a dull sound. Zhong Yuxuan came over and saw my pale face and asked anxiously, "What's wrong? What happened?"

I took a deep breath, suppressed the uneasiness in my heart, and told him what had just happened.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it." He held me in his arms and said firmly.

We all know that a new storm is coming, and this time, we will face it together and never back down.

However, just as we were preparing to fight back, the mysterious man suddenly disappeared without a trace, as if he had evaporated from the face of the earth. All our clues were broken, leaving only more mysteries and challenges...

The mysterious man seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth. No matter how we investigated, we could not find any trace of him. Zhong Yuxuan used all his connections and even hired a professional private detective, but still found nothing.

The feeling of uneasiness spread like a vine in my heart. I always felt that there was a pair of invisible eyes watching our every move in the dark, and that phone call was like a time bomb, and I didn't know when it would explode and blow us to pieces.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Zhong Yuxuan held my hand, and the warmth of his palm gave me a sense of strength.

I forced a smile and nodded. I knew that at this moment, I couldn't lose my composure. I had to believe in Zhong Yuxuan and the indestructible relationship between us.

As the days passed, the mysterious man disappeared without a trace. I gradually let down my guard and began to devote myself to work, trying to numb myself with busyness.

However, fate always seems to like playing jokes on me.

That day, I was working overtime at the company when I suddenly received a call from the hospital saying that my baby had a high fever and asked me to go over immediately. I was so anxious that I immediately put down my work and rushed to the hospital.

In the ward, the baby was lying on the bed with a pale face, his little body twitching constantly. I felt so distressed that my tears could not stop flowing.

"Doctor, how is my son? Why does he suddenly have a high fever?" I asked the doctor anxiously.

The doctor shook his head solemnly and said, "The child's condition is not optimistic. We suspect that he has a congenital heart disease and needs surgery immediately."

"Congenital heart disease?" I was struck by lightning and froze in place.

How could this happen? How could my baby get this disease?

"How much money do you need? I'll raise it right away!" I grabbed the doctor's hand, my voice trembling, as if I was grabbing the last straw.

"The operation will cost one million, and..." The doctor hesitated, as if he had something to hide.

"And what?" My heart was in my throat.

"Moreover, even if the operation is successful, the child will need to take long-term medication and have regular check-ups. The cost of this will not be a small amount." The doctor sighed and said helplessly.

one million!

I suddenly felt desperate. How could I, an orphan, come up with so much money?

Just when I was at my wit's end, a familiar figure appeared at the door of the ward.

"Luo Xue, I'm late."

It’s Zhong Yuxuan!

He walked quickly to my side and held me and the baby tightly in his arms.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything." His voice was low and firm, as if he was giving me strength and also as if he was cheering himself up.

At that moment, my tears burst out again, but this time, it was with emotion, gratitude, and hope.

However, before I could breathe a sigh of relief, a cold voice came from the door:

"Zhong Yuxuan, are you really going to give up everything for this woman?"

I looked up in horror and saw Li Luoyao standing at the door with a strange smile on her face...
