Chapter 1148: Put the Scissors Down

Xia Ling desperately shrank her body back. “I won’t! I want my child in my life forever! Pei Ziheng, how could you be so cruel, I have just decided to give birth to him!” She looked up at him with a little face as big as a palm and stared pitifully at him. She said while choking, “When I said I wanted to abort him, you were so against it. Now that I have liked him and can’t be separated from him, how could you bear to send him to his death?”

In front of the crowd, Pei Ziheng only said lowly, “Abortion? Have you misunderstood something, the doctor was just helping you keep the baby. You have caught a cold in Xi Cui Lake a few days ago, you must take care of your body.”

Xia Ling was very angry and laughed. “Pei Ziheng, if I did not see through your conspiracy, the baby would already have died!” Her heart was broken into pieces and being trampled on the ground. It turned out that he had done everything he could to make her keep the baby because the gender was not yet determined!

If…

If he had known that it was a boy, it might already have been aborted in the first nine weeks!

Whether she was willing or not.

He may love her, but he loved his family and power more, and she was just a small piece in his grand plan, the victim, and nothing more.

Her tears fell down her face.

Pei Ziheng said very gently to Xia Ling, “You’re emotionally unstable, don’t be suspicious, it’s not good for the fetus. Go back with me, I promise that the child will be safe.”

Xia Ling sneered at him. “Do you think I will believe you?” If she went back with him, she was afraid she would be brought onto the surgery table! Although she was foolish, she had suffered so many losses and had learned much.

Pei Ziheng frowned and said, “What do you want?” The crowd was gathering further around them and he didn’t want to be watched on like a monkey in a zoo anymore. More importantly, while the situation was still controllable, he wanted to draw a conclusion to this scene.

Xia Ling looked at him seriously. “You swear to ensure the safety of our baby. If anything happens to the baby, do you believe that I will die with him?”

Pei Ziheng’s expression sunk. “Don’t be foolish.”

Xia Ling smiled desperately. “You dare not swear, right?” she said, looking around in the crowd. “I don’t know how many of you are my fans? If you like me, please help me rush out of here! Because by his side, my child’s safety is not guaranteed!”

With such a beautiful girl asking for help with tears on her face, many people’s hearts were moved. They were all eager to try and wanted to help her escape.

But Pei Ziheng was always a step ahead of the opponent. He said to the crowd coldly, “You can try it, but you would be making trouble and would have to pay a price for it.” He had always been amazing at threatening people. His pair of cold eyes swept past the crowd, and many people were stunned and didn’t dare speak.

When everyone did not speak, he looked back at Xia Ling. “Follow me.”

At this time, Xia Ling knew how worthless her popularity and authority was. In the face of the strong, she could not look to anyone else but herself for help.

She looked at him with fear and shook her head.

Pei Ziheng said, “Do you want to go by yourself, or should I carry you?”

He was not only tall but also strong, and it was always easy to pick her up. She quickly recognized her defeat and said with a soft voice, her face pale, I’ll go by myself.”

He smiled with satisfaction, then took her step by step out of the crowd and returned to the maternity clinic.

There were many medical personnel standing in the clinic, the silence, the white wall, and the pungent smell of disinfectant water were almost suffocating. The attending doctor cautiously asked, “Mr. Pei, is the surgery still on?”

Pei Ziheng did not speak. Then, Xia Ling suddenly grabbed a pair of scissors on the table and pointed at her neck. “I want this child to survive,” she said. “If you dare to touch him, I will not live.”

The scissors pierced a little bit into her fair skin, and red blood trickled down.

The doctors and nurses exclaimed in shock. “Miss Xia, calm down! Put the scissors down first!”

Xia Ling turned a deaf ear to the sounds around her and just looked at Pei Ziheng.

The two silently challenged each other and each second felt like a thousand years.

Finally, Xia Ling could not hold it in anymore. She said with a trembling voice to Pei Ziheng, “Just take it as pitying me. If the child is gone, I will really die with it. Xiao Yu has already disappeared, he is my only relative now. Without him, I can’t live… Ziheng, I beg you.”

Pei Ziheng was silent as if weighing the truth of her sentence.

Instead, the doctor rushed to the front and said to Xia Ling, “Miss Xia, calm down and stop talking, be careful the scissors don’t pierce your neck artery, or you really can’t be saved!”

Xia Ling said with tears, “Do you still think I care about being saved? If the child must die, let me die before him! Don’t let me watch him disappear.”

Her voice was mournful, moving people and making them almost drop tears.

Pei Ziheng finally said, “Put the scissors down.”

Xia Ling looked at him distrustfully. “I won’t put the scissors down if you don’t promise me to let me give birth to him.” She pressed down a little and the wound in her neck got even deeper and the blood flowed even faster. The originally small meander turned into a meandering stream, making people feel shocked.

Pei Ziheng’s voice also sped up. “Okay, I promise you.”

Xia Wei trembled and asked, “Really?”

Pei Ziheng said, “I can swear.”

Xia Ling confirmed with him. “If the child dies, I will really die, and… I will burn myself so that you can’t even find my ashes, and you will never be buried with me.”

Pei Ziheng frowned and said coldly, “Put the scissors down. You are committing suicide. You don’t have to wait until I kill the child, you will kill yourself and the child.”

Xia Ling felt the burning pain in her neck and put down the blood-stained scissors.

The doctor quickly stepped forward to dress up the wound for her, and after a while, Pei Ziheng took her and went home with some bodyguards who had heard the news.

The villa was as always, quiet and beautiful.

As Nanny Zhou greeted her, she saw the white gauze wrapped on Xia Ling’s neck and shoulders and was shocked. She asked, “Miss, what’s wrong with you?”

Xia Ling did not have the mood to speak and slowly entered the house.

The expression of Pei Ziheng behind her was not good. He told Nanny Zhou, “Look after her. If there’s anything, go to the study room and find me.”

When Nanny Zhou saw that the atmosphere was wrong, she only obeyed and didn’t dare talk too much.

Xia Ling was very tired. She slept in bed and dreamed of a long dream. She dreamed that she had aborted her child. She went around looking for it and found only a large piece of flesh and blood, and she woke up in tears.

The night was quiet and the stars rose above the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Xia Ling saw a tall figure sitting on the bed. Although she did not turn on the light, she still recognized Pei Ziheng, the man she both loved and hated.
