BXBX NOVEL Chapter 294 - 294: Two Lives, Can ‘t Take the Bet
Li Xiwu held her stomach, not knowing what to do. She saw her mother squat down close to her bulging stomach and press her cheek against it. “Let Grandma hear if this little fellow is making a fuss in there.”
After listening for a while, MO Zhu slowly frowned.
Li Huaisheng asked, “What did you hear?”
MO Zhu glared at Li Huaisheng angrily. “Do you think you can hear everything just by listening!’
Li Huaisheng said, “I heard that when you were pregnant with Little You. I really heard it back then. This girl is not obedient at all. You suffered a lot when you were pregnant with her.”
MO Zhu smiled and stood up. “When you mentioned this, I was originally worried that Little You would be the same as when I was pregnant.
Fortunately, the baby didn’t torture her.”
After saying that, MO Zhu looked at his daughter’s blank expression and reached out to hold her face. “Why are you so worried?”
Li Xiwu’s lips parted. She wanted to say something, but no sound came out. She didn’t know why she couldn’t make a sound.
MO Zhu smiled at her lovingly. “Don’t worry. I’ve already promised your father that I’ll return to the country with you. Let’s go back to Shen City first. Mom will accompany you for a complete prenatal checkup. Then, we’ll set off for
Grandma’s house in the capital. What do you think?”
Li Xiwu shook her head. She tried to speak, but she couldn’t say a word.
MO Zhu asked her, “You don’t want to go back?”
Li Xiwu’s hand was trembling slightly as she held the gong citrus. She seemed to know. She knew what scene she was in. It was in a dream. She was experiencing what had happened with her current memories.
Every conversation now had really happened before.
No wonder she couldn’t say what she wanted to say. She could only repeat what she’d said before speaking…
Suddenly, the scene in the dream switched. She sat in a car as it drove through the streets of Country T. There was no real winter in Country T. There were only three seasons, the hot season, the rainy season, and the cold season.
It was the cold season now, and there was no cold winter. While Li Xiwu was stunned by the sudden change in scene in front of her, Madam Di Xin put a waistcoat on her. “The window is open. Be careful not to catch a cold when the wind blows in.”
Li Xiwu glanced sideways. It was Madam Di Xin who was sitting in the car with her. In her dream, Madam Di Xin was not much different from the Madam Di Xin she had seen in reality. Her silver-white hair was tied up, and she was graceful.
Li Xiwu’s lips parted. “Madam Di Xin.”
“Yes.” Madam Di Xin smiled at her. “Have you thought it through?”
Thought what through? Li Xiwu didn’t know what that meant.
Madam Di Xin said slowly, “Your mother’s condition isn’t optimistic. Recently, Country T hasn’t been peaceful. I guess your father is preparing to send you and your mother back to the country. The war might come at will, or it might be delayed for three to five years to maintain the surface peace, but at this time, those who know have already begun to make preparations. China is also prepared to evacuate the country at any time. It’s best for you to go back with your mother.”
With that, Madam Di Xin’s gaze fell on her bulging stomach. “Don’t be a gambler, Little You. Treasure the time you have with your mother now.” Li Xiwu shook her head subconsciously.
Madam Di Xin took her wrist and held it in her palm to give her a sense of security. “Your mother loves you, and so does your father. They all want the best for you. Little You, take my advice. Your father is your prequel. You have to do his sequel well in the future and complete the unfinished business for him.”
Li Xiwu still shook her head. She didn’t know what to say. Suddenly, a tear fell on her wrist. She thought it was Madam Di Xin’s tears, but realized too late that she was crying herself.
Madam Di Xin’s hand rose to wipe the tears from her cheeks. “Two lives. You can’t afford to gamble. Cord blood might not save your mother. In the end, you’ll lose these two children.”
Cord blood…
Save your mother…
Two children…
Li Xiwu’s face was filled with disbelief. What had she experienced in the past?
why was she even pregnant… And her mother, now did her mother die…
“You’re pregnant without him knowing. He doesn’t even have the right to
know. How painful would it be if he found out about all this one day? Little You, think about it carefully.”
Li Xiwu said nothing. But there was a voice deep inside her, and that voice was saying: But I can’t live without my mother.
The words came from deep inside, then became clearer.
In the blink of an eye, the scene changed to the cold operating table. She was helpless and panicked. The doctor began to give her anesthesia. The long needle was stuck in the back of her spine. The scalpel sliced across her belly. There was no pain, but it felt so clear.
Li Xiwu was shocked by this scene. She’d never known she’d had a child…
Was this real? No! It wasn’t real. It probably wasn’t real.
The scene after that suddenly stopped.
Li Xiwu desperately wanted to know what happened after the child was cut out early. Where was the child sent? Where was her mother? How did she come back to the country?
At that moment, she seemed to have fallen into an imaginary space. Her body fell, and everything around her was black. When she could see, she found herself lying in the hospital. When she opened her eyes, she saw a white ceiling.
The dream passed. Was she finally awake?
The door opened gently.
Li Xiwu slowly turned her head. Someone came in and she saw that the person walking in front was Chen Xin. Pei Jingzhou walked behind him. When he came in, his face was expressionless.
Until Chen Xin, who was standing in front of the bed, said, “Miss Li, you’re awake.”
Li Xiwu opened her mouth to speak. She wanted to call out to Pei Jingzhou, but her throat seemed to be blocked and she could not make a sound.
That’s not right…
Why was it still the same as in her dream? She always couldn’t make a sound when she was thinking about talking. She seemed to be supposed to say something else. That something was: “Who are you guys?
When the words came out of her mouth, Li Xiwu froze.
However, to her surprise, Chen Xin did not ask her what was wrong. Instead, he introduced himself. “Hello, Miss Li. I’m Chen Xin, Mr. Pei’s assistant.” Why did Chen Xin say that?
Li Xiwu didn’t know what was wrong now. Wasn’t she already awake…
Chen Xin stepped back a little. “Mr. Pei, the doctor said that the high fever has subsided. Miss Li is completely awake now.”
Pei Jingzhou stepped forward and slowly leaned over to look at her. Unlike before, Pei Jingzhou’s eyes were emotionless when he looked at her. He stared at her for a moment. Then his thin lips parted and he said her name. “Li Xiwu.”
Li Xiwu was stunned and did not respond.
Pei Jingzhou did not seem to need her to respond. He introduced himself calmly. “My name is Pei Jingzhou. From today onwards, I am your husband.” Li Xiwu’s pupils dilated.
If it had made her feel strange just now, then now she finally realized what the situation was like.
She wasn’t awake yet.
She was still in a dream.
This dream was the first day she woke up after losing her memory and saw Pei Jingzhou..
