When he learned about it, he felt happy. But knowing the child came from their unethical relationship, he understood she wouldn’t want it. Nevertheless, he hoped they could keep the child, regardless of any disabilities. He secretly kept the child, having doctors monitor its health.
“Child? Child!” Ou Xueman muttered in a daze.
Tong Yifeng lunged at Di Xihuang, but Jessica and others quickly subdued him and took him out of the room.
“Xuanxuan, listen to me, the child is healthy. Let’s keep him. He’s our child,” Di Xihuang said, fearing she would reject the child. “Xuanxuan, even if I have faults, the child is innocent.”
But Ou Xueman remained in a daze, shocked and unable to accept the misfortune.
Di Xihuang painfully closed his eyes.
When he opened his eyes again, they were filled with blood vessels, as if weeping blood.
“Xuanxuan, this child…” he spoke slowly, each word containing his pain. “Let’s have this child. Let him accompany me. As long as you can give birth to this child, I… I’m willing to… divorce.”
When “divorce” escaped his lips, only his heart felt the pain and reluctance.
“Divorce?” Ou Xueman was stunned. Wasn’t this what he had been desperately trying to avoid?
Touching her lower abdomen, could this child be more important than his billions in wealth? Or was this another of his schemes?
Suddenly, the door was pushed open with great force, revealing the visitor’s aggressive approach.
“Di Xihuang, what exactly are you doing? Your good friends, your brothers have all come to bully me, yet you still don’t care and are here coaxing this wretched woman.”
Di Ying’s gloomy face seemed to have aged overnight, each wrinkle a mark of time. Her cloudy eyes appeared lifeless, as if the murkiness affected her vision.
Di Xihuang frowned, and in that moment, Ou Xueman saw hatred in his eyes—hatred towards Di Ying.
“You’d better behave yourself. I’ll arrange things my way later,” he coldly ordered Di Ying to leave.
Di Ying gritted her teeth, powerless against him, and vented her anger on Ou Xueman beside her. “It’s all because of this wretched woman. Nothing good ever happens when you appear.”
Di Ying tried to drag Ou Xueman off the bed, but Di Xihuang intervened and forcefully pushed her to the ground.
