exclusive love

Chapter 68
"No."

"Why is that?" Seeing Xia Xiaochi bowed her head and said nothing, Xu Man guessed that she might have some difficulties, and hurriedly said, "If it's inconvenient for you to say it, you don't have to."

"It's nothing, because I'm...pregnant."

"what?"

Xu Man smacked her lips, this is really a tricky question, now that the society is so competitive, how could a regular company want a pregnant woman.

She felt that Xia Xiaochi was pitiful, broke up with her boyfriend, fled back to her hometown in embarrassment, and now she is pregnant again.

"Then what are you going to do? Does Auntie know?"

"I, I didn't dare to tell her!"

"Then what are you going to do with this child?" Xu Man couldn't help worrying about her future.

"I want to give birth to him!" This was the result of Xia Xiaochi's long-term thinking. The child is innocent.

"But...you are not married, you don't have a job, and you have a child by yourself, how will you support him? You may encounter various difficulties. Raising a child is not as simple as you think, old classmate!" Xu Man has reservations about her idea.

"No matter what, I will give birth to him, and no matter how hard it is, I will raise him!"

In fact, Xia Xiaochi's situation was worse than what Xu Man feared. She was not only a single mother, but also a divorced woman.

"Naive! Xia Xiaochi, you are so naive! Do you know how difficult it is to be a single mother?"

"I know, I myself grew up in a single-parent environment!" Xia Xiaochi had already prepared for the worst, at most she would live a hard life like her mother took her.

"Hey, I know that once you make a decision, you won't be able to pull nine cows back! Since this is the case, I can't just sit idly by. When you give birth to a child, I will recognize the child as a godmother. How about it?" Xu Manla Hold her hand.

"Thank you!"

Xia Xiaochi felt very lucky. When she was sad, she met Xu Man. Because of Xu Man's warm heart, they became good friends.

Later, Xia Xiaochi couldn't find a suitable job, so with Xu Man's help, she was asked to stay in Manmantu Restaurant and become a waiter.

A Ziyang University graduate working as a waiter in a small local restaurant is indeed a bit overqualified, but Xia Xiaochi did not complain at all. She is very grateful for the job opportunity provided by Xu Man, which gave her a foothold in Lujiang.

Because they were old classmates, Xu Man's family took special care of Xia Xiaochi, paid her monthly salary, and gave her the right to ask for leave at any time.

Li Liancheng sat in front of Lu Junshan in the oak tree community in Ziyang City, staring at the bubbling water in the glass jug in a daze.

The blow of broken love almost crippled him. Although Xia Xiaochi left, he was still immersed in the pain of broken love and divorce and couldn't extricate himself.

If you have experienced unforgettable love, you will know that to strip this kind of love is tantamount to deboning and extracting the marrow.

"Look out!" Lu Junshan didn't know how to persuade his cousin.

"What if you can't see it?"

"You get used to falling in love a few times!" Lu Junshan began to make tea.

Li Liancheng raised his head and stared at him, very dissatisfied with his attitude, he was so heartbroken that he was dying, he could still say such sarcastic remarks.

"What else? You go and get her back!" Lu Junshan glared back at him.

"Impossible!" Li Liancheng shook his head and lowered his head in frustration.

A cup of fragrant tea was placed in front of Li Liancheng, and Lu Junshan invited him to taste it.

"It's so bitter!" Li Liancheng spat it out just after taking a sip, his brows wrinkled into balls.

"I think it's because of your bitterness!" Lu Junshan tasted the tea with gusto, he thought the tea was very fragrant.

After a while, Lu Junshan accidentally stepped on a landmine and said, "Do you want me to introduce you to my cousin? Just like Xia Xiaochi, I will find it for you?"

"Don't mention her name again!" Li Liancheng put down his teacup, got up and left.

"Hey! Don't you even mention it?" Lu Junshan called him from behind, but he ignored it.

The pain of falling out of love cannot be resolved, only time can dilute everything, but why does time go slower than a snail?

In the early stages of her pregnancy, Xia Xiaochi kept it a secret from her mother. She neither told her about her pregnancy nor about her work in the local restaurant, just because she didn't want her to worry.

But the paper couldn't contain the fire, her belly was getting bigger day by day, and Peng Yuzhen had already noticed the change in her.

At the dinner table, Xia Xiaochi smelled the smell of braised pork and couldn't help but go to the bathroom to vomit.

"Xiaochi, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

"It's okay, Mom!"

"Did you have it?" Peng Yuzhen is someone who has been there before. She has given birth and knows what it is like to be pregnant.

Xia Xiaochi shook her head, but Peng Yuzhen directly lifted her blouse and checked her lower abdomen. When she saw the swollen lower abdomen, she fell to the ground in shock.

"mom……"

"Why have you been hiding it from me?" Peng Yuzhen blamed herself for being so reassuring about her daughter that she didn't even notice that her daughter was pregnant.

"I'm afraid you're worried..."

"It's Li Liancheng's? How many months?"

"It's been almost five months..." Xia Xiaochi shook her head bitterly in her heart. If it was Li Liancheng's, maybe she would feel better.

"You damn girl, are you trying to piss me off!" Peng Yuzhen was dizzy with anger, wandered around the room, suddenly took her hand, and said, "I can't have this child, let's go, mom will take you there now!" Do surgery!"

"No! Mom! I don't want an operation! I want to give birth to the baby!" Xia Xiaochi broke free from her mother's hand, and held on to the door frame.

"Are you crazy! You are not married yet, what kind of child do you have? Do you know that once you give birth to a child, your whole life will be over!" Peng Yuzhen said heartbroken.

"Mom, I want this child, and I will raise him!" Xia Xiaochi cried.

"Why are you so stupid? Look at Mom, how much suffering did you suffer when you were brought up by yourself? Are you going to follow my old path like me?"

Peng Yuzhen patted her heart, and said earnestly: "Xiaochi, your future is still very long. In the future, you are going to get married. If you have a child, who will want you? Look at our current life, how can you still be married?" Can you afford another child? Listen to my mother, don't want this child!"

"Mom..." Xia Xiaochi knelt in front of her mother, tears streaming down her face, and said, "I can't lose my child, and without my child, I don't want to live anymore!"

After Xia Xiaochi finished speaking, she collapsed on the ground, covered her face and began to cry. In the past five months, she had already felt the existence of the little life in her belly, which was inseparable from her.

"Oh... what a crime this is all made of!" Peng Yuzhen also sat on the ground, beating her legs and crying bitterly.

Because of Xia Xiaochi's insistence, Peng Yuzhen couldn't force her to have an operation. The days passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye, it was September. Xia Xiaochi, who was more than eight months pregnant, was wiping the tables at Manmantu Restaurant with her big belly.

"Let me come! You go and rest for a while!" Xu Man snatched the rag from her hand and said.

"It's okay, idle is idle anyway!"

"You are pregnant now, and you have my godson in your belly, so be careful!" Xu Man said while wiping the table, "The due date will be next week!"

"Ok!"

"I'm telling you, Xiaochi, don't be nervous! Don't be afraid! I heard from my mother that having a baby is like digging for a carrot, it's easy!"

"I'm not nervous at all. I think you are the one who is nervous!" Xia Xiaochi smiled. She sat on the side and touched her stomach, feeling very happy because she was about to meet her child.

"How is it possible? How could I be nervous? Just kidding!" Xu Man said, wiping his face with a rag nervously, but he didn't know.

Xia Xiaochi was amused when she saw this scene. She may have laughed a little too much, and suddenly felt a stomachache, which then became more and more painful.

"Xu Man, I...my stomach hurts..." She couldn't stand up anymore.

"Ah? Oh my god! My God!" Xu Man threw away the rag in fright, and ran to the back hall to call her parents.

Xia Xiaochi was sent to the hospital to wait for delivery. Lying in the hospital in excruciating pain, she realized that giving birth is not the same as digging carrots.

The dystocia was tortured to death. After more than ten hours of torment, Xia Xiaochi finally gave birth to the child. Unfortunately, the postpartum hemorrhage required immediate surgery.

After the hospital notified the family members, thanks to the support of Xu Man's family, they helped Xia Xiaochi pay for the operation in advance, so the operation went smoothly.

Five days later, Xia Xiaochi was transferred to the general ward. After recovering, she immediately asked about the child's condition.

"The doctor said that the baby will be born weak and will be observed in the observation room for a period of time!" Peng Yuzhen secretly poked Xu Man when she said this.

"Ah, yes, yes, the baby is in the incubator!"

Half a month later, Xia Xiaochi, who was discharged home, did not see the child. After repeated questioning, Peng Yuzhen had no choice but to tell her, "Xiaochi, mom didn't dare to tell you because she was afraid that you would be hit. In fact, the child was born I just lost my breath..."

This was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue, and Xia Xiaochi was deeply hit. She had nothing but her child, and now she had no child.

"Don't cry, crying in confinement will hurt your body!" Peng Yuzhen didn't know how to comfort her, so she had to ask Xu Man for help.

Xu Man came to visit Xia Xiaochi almost every day, talked with her, and comforted her to be more open.

Ziyang City, Jinshengyuan Community, and Li Liancheng haven't been here for a while, and their memories are everywhere, as long as they stand in the house, they seem to be surrounded by sadness.

He pushed open the sunny door to let the sun and air blow in, and came to the flower garden on the terrace, and saw a scene that made him even more sad.

The piece of purple grass he planted was in a wilted and exhausted state. The green leaves began to turn yellow, and the flowers were withering, lifeless.

Maybe it was because no one took care of it, he sighed vaguely, picked up the flower bucket, and watered the flowers gently.

Zifangcao reminded him of Xia Xiaochi, she left him, is her life safe?

The phone rang, it was Lin Jiaran's call, Li Liancheng frowned, and pressed the hang up button.

A month later, Xia Xiaochi finally packed up her sad mood and locked all her memories in a drawer. For nothing else, she still had her mother to take care of, and she still owed several debts to repay.

She quit her job at the Tucai Restaurant and worked as an ordinary production line employee in a cosmetics company called Qili Daily Chemical. Her monthly salary was only more than 2. Although the salary was low, she felt that Life is very down-to-earth.

With her work experience in Shanhai Group and her undergraduate education, she could have found a better job, but she didn't. She didn't write her experience working in Shanhai Group on her resume.
