Chapter 568: In the face of a mother who has lost her child, any language seems pale and powerless.
Not long after, the family doctor arrived and examined Ji Wei."Mrs. Mo is physically healthy, just emotionally unstable. Let her rest well."
Aunt Zhu was a bit surprised.
Just a short while ago, her mood was fine. How did she suddenly become so unstable?
Was it because of that phone call?
Seeing Ji Wei lying still and completely ignoring the doctor’s words, Aunt Zhu, though extremely anxious, didn’t know how to comfort her.
She led the family doctor out of the bedroom, gently closing the door.
The bedroom was eerily quiet.
Ji Wei lay on the bed, her heart aching in pulses of pain. The dam of her suppressed emotions was beginning to break, and tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes, soaking the pillow beneath.
Aunt Zhu, still uneasy after seeing off the family doctor, decided to call Mo Qian.
Mo Qian, who was about to arrive at the company gates, turned the car around immediately after hearing Aunt Zhu’s account.
He vaguely sensed what it was, and his heart clenched tightly.
Returning to Shanshui Manor, Mo Qian rushed upstairs without even changing his shoes.
As he pushed open the bedroom door, he immediately saw Ji Wei lying on the bed, looking lifeless.
His steps turned unsteady as he hurried over, finding her in a state of semi-consciousness, tear stains visible at the corner of her eyes.
Seeing this, Mo Qian’s heart ached even more. He placed a hand on the top of her head, gently stroking her, and called softly, "Weiwei, I’m back."
Ji Wei slowly moved her gaze to him.
Her eyes were swollen and red, her expression unbearably sorrowful. After a long moment of staring, she asked in a trembling voice, "Mo Qian, did we... lose a child?"
So, he had guessed it right.
In the end, he couldn’t keep this from her...
After a long silence, Mo Qian answered hoarsely, "Yes."
"Why... Mo Qian, why was our child taken from us? He was innocent." The woman murmured, her mind struggling to accept this reality.
Mo Qian’s thin lips pressed together tightly, and his other hand gradually clenched into a fist, veins bulging across the back of his hand, betraying the intensity of his anger.
Who was it? Who leaked this out?

Mo Qian crouched by the bedside, cupping her pale face with his hands.
Her tears, icy and cold, dampened his fingertips.
At the time, he had kept the truth from her just to avoid seeing Ji Wei in such pain and despair. He had hoped she’d never learn this secret, not for her entire life.
"It’s my fault. If I hadn’t impulsively lured Zhu Jianian into this, the child wouldn’t have been lost," Ji Wei said, her voice full of remorse. "And I, so naively, believed the child had survived... Mo Qian, I’m not a good mother..."
Mo Qian gently wiped the tears from her face, comforting her, "Weiwei, don’t dwell on blame. We still have another baby, don’t we? For him, you must pick yourself up."
Mo Qian knew that no words could truly console a mother grieving the loss of her child.
The most he could do was try his best to comfort her: "There’s still a little life inside you. Try to feel his presence."
Mo Qian held her hand and placed it together with his on her slightly rounded belly.
At the moment their hands touched, it was as if they could both sense the presence of another tiny, kindred life inside.
Ji Wei’s mind immediately flashed with the image of the small fetus from the ultrasound.
Yes, she needed to be strong. She couldn’t keep crying—her sadness would harm the baby.
And wasn’t this all part of Zhu Jianian’s scheme?
Zhu Jianian had called her just to plunge her into guilt and despair, to completely crush her.
Ha, how could she let Zhu Jianian’s vile plan succeed!
