Chapter 522: I Just Didn’t Know It Was So Heart-Shattering

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Huo Zizhen’s words shocked Mu Qingya. One had to know that half of the reason Huo Zizhen had come to this point was because of Huo Jiuxiao. Especially when Huo Zizhen was chased out of the Huo Family by the ancestral hall, it was the result of Huo Jiuxiao and Huo Zizhen’s personal actions. Therefore, Mu Qingya would never have thought that Huo Zizhen would stand with Huo Jiuxiao.

“I know what you’re thinking. You think that they’re just using me. No, the person who makes the choice is me. Moreover, I’ll never be able to get close to them in my entire life. I’ve sinned so much that I don’t deserve to shine with the sun and moon. Go in.”

Mu Qingya didn’t ask any more questions and pushed open the door to Huo Shengyuan’s ward. At this moment, both mother and son were busy contacting the shareholders to put pressure on Huo Qingxiao, so their attention wasn’t on Mu Qingya.

Mu Qingya put down the lunchbox and walked up to Huo Shengyuan. “We haven’t seen each other for a few days. Aren’t you going to ask me how I’m doing?”

“Qingya, you know my situation. I have to focus on stabilizing my position in the Huo Corporation. I’m sorry, but I can’t take care of you.” Huo Shengyuan looked at Mu Qingya and replied.

There was a flash of annoyance in his eyes, as if he was criticizing Mu Qingya for being insensible.

Mu Qingya paused and lowered her head. When she looked up again, she said to Huo Shengyuan, “My parents just called me. The Mu family won’t be able to hold on for much longer. They might declare bankruptcy soon.”

Upon hearing the word bankruptcy, the mother and son looked at Mu Qingya at the same time.

“How did this happen?” Yun Shujing asked. Logically speaking, it shouldn’t be. After all, the Mu family was not ordinary. They had a solid foundation. How could Huo Jiuxiao’s report cause them to end up in such a state? Moreover, if they lost the protection of the Mu family, wouldn’t they have even less chance of winning?

“Also, I went for a prenatal checkup yesterday. The doctor said that I couldn’t abort the child. My uterus is too thin. If I force an abortion, I might never be able to give birth again. So, Shengyuan, I want to keep this child.” When Mu Qingya was acting, her tears flowed down her cheeks, making her look delicate and touching. It was indeed heartbreaking.

However, that was only for those who had intentions. For those who had no intentions, such as this mother and son, there were only two things on their minds.

Firstly, without the Mu family to rely on, and secondly, how could she keep the child?

At this moment, Yun Shujing immediately exploded. She stood up and said, “Qingya, you’re so young. Why is there a problem with your uterus? Is it because you were indecent before and had a history of multiple miscarriages?”

“I didn’t. It was my first time with Shengyuan. Shengyuan can testify for me!”

“It’s not that difficult for the hospital to perform a repair surgery now. So, how can I trust you?” Yun Shujing argued irrationally. She had to stand on the moral high ground. Otherwise, how could she blame others? “You’re a dignified young miss. Aren’t you too lacking in self-love?”

“Mom, I didn’t. Don’t talk nonsense.”

“So what use are you now? You can’t go back to your parents’ home, and you can’t use your child. You’re a burden to Shengyuan now. Besides, the Mu family is about to go bankrupt. Qingya, we’re in trouble too. Don’t blame me for not reminding you. Don’t use Shengyuan’s things to subsidize your parents. It’s a bottomless pit.” Because the Mu family was about to go bankrupt, Yun Shujing no longer had to worry about Mu Qingya’s feelings when she spoke.

Mu Qingya smiled bitterly. “Why did the Mu family end up like this? It’s all because of helping Shengyuan!”

“That’s because the Mu family is dirty and can’t stand the investigation. Don’t push everything onto my son. Don’t you have any shame!”

The two of them could not argue. At this time, Huo Shengyuan finally spoke up in frustration. “Stop arguing. Qingya wants to keep the child, so let’s keep it.”

“Are you kidding me?” Yun Shujing immediately stopped Huo Shengyuan. You can’t have a child in your current situation. Even if you do, do you want to be a sucker in the Mu family’s current situation?”

“It’s decided then. Qingya, go back and rest. Don’t stay here.”

Even though he was keeping the child, Mu Qingya could tell that Huo Shengyuan didn’t care or feel sorry for her. He just felt annoyed by the two women’s endless quarrels.

Yun Shujing wanted to say something, but she stopped after glancing at her son.

Mu Qingya was heartbroken. She got up from the chair and left the ward.

However, after closing the door, she deliberately let out the sound of her heels. A minute later, she and Huo Zizhen were eavesdropping outside the ward.

“Shengyuan, what are you thinking? How could she keep the child? We need this child to suppress the shareholders’ determination to support Huo Jiuxiao.”

“Why did you provoke her? She doesn’t need to cooperate at all to send this child away. As long as Huo Zizhen is sensible, we can still blame Huo Jiuxiao.” Huo Shengyuan said coldly.

At this moment, Mu Qingya immediately covered her mouth because she was afraid that she would make a sound and disturb the mother and son from enjoying themselves.

“When the time comes, the child will be taken care of, Huo Jiuxiao will be suppressed, and Huo Zizhen will end things. We’ll just be the perfect victims.”

Hearing this, Mu Qingya couldn’t stand it anymore.

Huo Zizhen knew that she couldn’t take it, so she pushed the wheelchair and quietly left with Mu Qingya.

By the time they entered the underground parking lot, Mu Qingya was already sobbing as she leaned against the car.

Because she finally saw what the beast looked like.

Huo Zizhen did not disturb her and let her vent. When she had cried enough, she handed her a tissue. “I reminded you.”

“I know. I just didn’t know it was so heart-wrenching.” Mu Qingya mustered all her strength and stood up. She opened the car door and said to Huo Zizhen, “I’m going to the hospital now. I can’t wait another fifteen minutes.”

Huo Zizhen accompanied Mu Qingya to the hospital. During this period, Yun Shujing called her once and asked her to keep Mu Qingya and protect this child. After all, it would be the highlight of the wedding.

Huo Zizhen was very good at feigning civility now. She responded verbally with a bright smile on her face, but she personally sent Mu Qingya into the operating room.

When Mu Qingya came out again, she had already lost her child. However, she did not regret it. With a father like Huo Shengyuan, she would rather let her child reincarnate and find a family that truly loved her.

“Baby, I’m sorry. Mommy really deserves to die.”

When she woke up from the anaesthetic, Lin Wanli was there too. Standing behind Huo Zizhen gave her an inexplicable sense of security.

“Rest in bed for two days. You have to take good care of your body after a miscarriage. After you get out of bed…”

“After I get out of bed, put on a good show!” Mu Qingya continued Lin Wanli’s words.
