Chapter 1282: Tomorrow I’ll Take You Home to Recuperate
"I’ve been thinking about how to approach this with you all these days, but after what I saw just now, I feel I can tell you directly." Xu Xing arrived at the corridor, grabbed the railing, and spoke bluntly.
"You’ve seen Su Li’s condition; putting aside whether we can save her eyesight, her body is already very weak. Right now, the pregnancy retention injection can only stabilize her condition for a month or two. As the child in her belly grows larger, her body’s load will increase, and it’ll become difficult." Xu Xing spoke a whole bunch in one go and finally came to a conclusion, "So as a doctor, for Su Li’s sake, I suggest an abortion. Then she can take medicine and undergo treatment properly."
Xu Xing saw Feng Huaijin’s profile coldly change with apparent speed; the beautiful facial contours tensed into a solid line.
Xu Xing looked at Feng Huaijin and comforted, "You never know, there might be more in the future. Kids, you just go with the flow."
Besides, don’t they have a son?
Feng Huaijin remained silent for a long time, finally asking, "Must it be this way?"
Xu Xing spread his hands, "Medicine is three parts poison; taking it will undoubtedly affect the fetus, which can easily cause deformities. So it’s best not to keep the child."
Feng Huaijin leaned against the snow-white stone pillar, slightly hung his head, letting the incandescent light above him fall, and responded with a gentle hum.
Xu Xing comfortingly patted Feng Huaijin’s shoulder and turned to head toward the attending physician’s office.
The sound of footsteps from leather shoes approached from afar, settling in front of Feng Huaijin, who didn’t raise his head and said, "Give me a cigarette."
Xiao Heng was startled, his face turning pale, quickly covering his pants pocket, saying, "Brother Qi, are you angling for a catch with that nurse? I’m out of cigarettes, none in my pockets. Didn’t you quit smoking?"
"I’m annoyed."
Xiao Heng didn’t get it; what did his Brother Qi have to be annoyed about?
He has a fiancée as beautiful as a flower and is so wealthy. He has an attentive son who’s a board member, and now, in the womb of his Future Seventh Sister-in-law, there’s an unborn daughter, and soon he’ll have both a son and a daughter!
Annoyed with this? He’s undoubtedly the winner in life!
Thinking about his own troubles, Xiao Heng felt the real frustration; inexplicably sent to Africa, contracting the epidemic there, nearly dying, and not even having a wife. That’s frustrating.
While Xiao Heng grumbled in his heart, he heard Feng Huaijin’s low laugh, "Both a son and a daughter?"
In the future, he might not only lose his son, but also be unable to save Su Li’s daughter in her belly!
Feng Huaijin looked at the sky, gradually getting darker, and sighed deeply.
If only he hadn’t promised Su Li to allow the weekly visits from Tuanzi; then today’s bad outcome might not have happened.
He knew... he knew that such actions against fate would require a corresponding cost...
But... neither the son nor the daughter was more important than Su Li.
The confusion in Feng Huaijin’s eyes gradually turned into determination.

Su Li sat on the hospital bed, able to smell the bitter scent of traditional Chinese medicine that made her feel like vomiting.
Su Li touched the bed’s handle, recalled the decor of the room, and simply poured the bowl of Chinese medicine into the restroom.
Then she acted as if nothing had happened and slipped back under the blanket.
Su Li heard the door open and footsteps following, her scalp instantly tightened, afraid Feng Huaijin would notice something.
"The pregnancy retention injections are almost done, tomorrow I’ll take you home to recuperate."
