Chapter 2058
Jiang Yao was aware that Lu Xingzhi admitted to feeling a little terrified due to what had occurred to his fellow soldiers. How much pain would she and Lu Xingzhi be experiencing if she did not have access to the medical system?
They had been waiting for a long time—a surprise gift from heaven. They had been trying to be careful, but their dream could have been taken away. The pain was heart-wrenching.
Therefore, he was glad that their child was alive and well.
“He will grow up healthy in my stomach and grow up well in the future.”
His action warmed Jiang Yao’s heart. She caressed Lu Xingzhi’s chin with her outstretched hand. “We will take good care of him.”
Lu Xingzhi held Jiang Yao’s hand and did not say anything.
He thought, ‘Yes, I will.’ He would protect her and the child well.
The two of them spent some intimate time for a while before Lu Xingzhi got Jiang Yao a toothbrush and a washbasin so that she could refresh herself. Then, he accompanied her to have some breakfast. Jiang Yao’s appetite was not very good. After eating half a bowl of porridge, she could not finish it. Lu Xingzhi tried to get her to eat more. Then, she retched and almost vomited the food she had eaten. Lu Xingzhi was terrified when he saw that; he dared not let her eat anymore.
“That’s enough. I’ll put the leftovers away.” Lu Xingzhi hastily cleared the table of the leftovers and tossed them in the outside garbage can after noticing how much Jiang Yao was suffering. He opened the window for some fresh air.
Jiang Yao did not feel much better until the smell of food was gone from the room. She no longer wanted to throw up.
Then, Lu Xingzhi told her about the results. It was also a good opportunity for Jiang Yao to change her focus.
“Abortion drugs?”
Jiang Yao’s expression was what Lu Xingzhi had imagined.
“Let me take a look.”
She took the list from Lu Xingzhi and read it in detail. Then, she nodded and said, “The head nurse is right. It’s an abortion drug. The ingredients on the list are very obvious. They are the same type of medicine. They must have taken it around the same time, from the looks of the effects and their physiques, but in varying levels of doses. It looks like the woman who had been one-month pregnant had the highest dose in her body.”
...
Jiang Yao believed that even if she had given it her all last night, she would not have been able to help if the substance was an abortion drug.
She had wanted to help last, but she gave up the idea because her body did not allow it.
However, even if she had made every effort to help, it would have been for naught. The abortion caused by the drug was unavoidable, and the medical system was powerless to stop it.
“Is there anything wrong with the test results?” Lu Xingzhi asked.
“They ran the test in the middle of the night. There were fewer tests then, so the margin for error is quite small. Did the head nurse say anything else? Did she suspect that the test results were wrong or the equipment was faulty, so she re-checked it? Since the results were the same on both occasions, there shouldn’t be any errors. Furthermore, the data on the tests were not the same, so the results shouldn’t be wrong.” Jiang Yao looked at it again, then shook her head. “I don’t see any mistakes.”
“Okay.”
Lu Xingzhi put the test results away and urged Jiang Yao to lie down and rest.
“The doctor said you should stay in bed and rest..”
