Zhou han slowly pushed the door of the ward open and walked in quietly. He saw Lin Li sitting by the bed. She was lying on the edge of the bed and sleeping. Her hand was still holding the hand of the little guy on the bed.

When he looked up again, the little one on the bed was sleeping with his eyes closed. However, he did not seem to be sleeping well. The expression on his little face was uncomfortable. His little eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and his eyelids were trembling as if he was dreaming of something terrible. There was cold porridge tied in a plastic bag on the bedside table.

He took off his coat and covered the sleeping person lying on the side of the bed. He looked up and saw that the saline drip was almost finished. He reached out and pressed the bell at the head of the bed. Soon, the nurse on duty opened the door and came in with a mask and half a bottle of saline. She changed the drip professionally and did not wake the two people on the bed and beside the bed.

!!
Zhou han followed the nurse out and asked about the child’s condition. After confirming that the child was fine, he turned around and returned to the ward.

However, when Zhou han pushed the door open and entered the room again, Lin Li, who was originally sleeping on the edge of the bed, had already woken up. She turned sideways to look in the direction of the door and happened to meet Zhou Han’s eyes, who had just entered.

Lin Li looked at him for a long time without saying anything. She only raised her hand to look at her watch. Her eyes no longer had the drowsy look of someone who had just woken up. She raised her head and looked at him fixedly. Her eyes seemed to be condemning and dissatisfied with him.

She didn’t expect that she had accidentally fallen asleep just now. When she woke up, she quickly looked at the drip hanging on the wall and saw that the drip had been changed. When she was feeling puzzled, she realized that she was covered with a suit jacket. Before she could guess, she heard the sound of the door opening. She turned around and happened to see Zhou han who opened the door and came in.

Zhou han also came back to his senses and quietly closed the door. He walked to her side and looked at her slightly tired appearance. He ignored the condemnation and dissatisfaction in her eyes and said softly, ” “If you’re tired, you can go home first.” They were only in a cooperative relationship. To put it bluntly, she did not have the obligation to stay and take care of the child on his behalf.

Lin Li continued to stare at him, neither agreeing nor refusing.

Zhou han didn’t look at him anymore. He turned around and didn’t look at her or the child again. He sat directly on the sofa at the side, turned on the computer he brought back, and placed it on his lap. Then, he started to deal with the work that he hadn’t finished today.

It was his duty to ask her to leave, and it was her right to stay or not. He didn’t mind if she stayed because he had an important plan to complete tonight.

At this moment, Lin Li felt an inexplicable anger in her heart. She felt sorry for the child lying on the bed and felt that it wasn’t worth it. She was even more angry at Zhou Han’s irresponsible indifference!

She only heard Shan Xiaobin, the child on the bed, Mutter in his sleep, ” dad … as if he was afraid, his little hand holding Lin Li tightened.

Lin Li raised her eyes and saw that the man sitting on the sofa opposite her was also looking up at the child, but he didn’t stand up. Even his gaze was only for a moment before it was quickly retracted. He lowered his head and continued typing on the keyboard to continue his work.

The dissatisfaction in her heart became even more intense. She gently put the little guy’s hand back under the blanket. Then, Lin Li stood up directly and walked to Zhou han. She reached out and covered his laptop. As she looked at him, her eyes seemed to be burning with a small flame.

Zhou han raised his head and frowned unhappily. He said in a low voice, ” what are you doing? ” From his tone, she could tell that he was very dissatisfied with her behavior.

Looking at him, Lin Li lowered her voice for fear of disturbing the child and said, ” “Let’s go out and talk.”

Zhou han only glanced at her and turned on his laptop again. He lowered his head and went back to work. He only said, ” “If there’s anything, just say it.”

Lin Li’s furrowed brows tightened even more, then she raised her hand to close his computer again. let’s go out and talk! His low tone was even fiercer than before!

Zhou Han’s furrowed brows furrowed even more. He knew that he wouldn’t give up until he went out with her to talk to her today. With a serious face, he placed the computer on his lap directly on the sofa. Then, he raised his hand to look at his watch and said coldly, ” “I only have five minutes.” Then, he walked out of the ward.

Lin Li followed him out and quietly closed the door. She was afraid of disturbing others, so she looked at him and said, ” “Follow me.” She turned around and walked towards the elevator.

The window happened to be beside the elevator. The night was pretty good with many stars in the night sky, but Lin Li and Zhou han were not in the mood to appreciate this nice night.

As he followed her to the window, Zhou han raised his hand to look at his watch again and said coldly without any warmth, ” “Four more minutes.” He didn’t know what she was trying to say when she insisted on him coming out, but he really didn’t have the time to give her.

He had to come up with a plan by night and send it to the American real estate tycoon, Maisen, the next day because he had to return to the United States tomorrow afternoon. His trip to China was very tight, and he only stayed in Jiangcheng for two days. He had spent a lot of effort to get the dinner party tonight, but it was obvious that he was not the only one who wanted to cooperate with Maisen. Everyone was eyeing him covetously. After the dinner party, Mr. Maisen’s Secretary whispered to him in private, Mr. Mason hoped to see his plan before he boarded the plane tomorrow afternoon.

He knew how difficult it would be to come up with a proposal before tomorrow, but if he didn’t grasp this opportunity, he wouldn’t have another one in the future.

Turning her head, Lin Li was a little agitated. She looked at him and asked, ” “Who Do You Think You Are? how can you be so cold and heartless? you don’t even care about your son who’s in the hospital. Why don’t you take a look at the time? Where were you when the child was calling for his father? You can’t even walk to the bed and touch his face. Isn’t this too much?” After saying a long string of words, Lin Li’s chest heaved up and down due to her emotional agitation.

Facing his accusation, Zhou Han’s face turned even gloomier. He looked at her for a long time and said coldly, ” “I remember that there’s a very clear clause in the contract that states that you can’t interfere with the other party’s matters!”

“Don’t talk to me about the contract. I’m not talking to you as a business partner!” Lin Li shouted at him. She just couldn’t stand it. How could he treat her child so coldly? that was her own flesh and blood! How could he be so cruel? as parents, shouldn’t they give their children endless love? Didn’t he know how blessed he was? some people wanted to dote on their children, but they didn’t even have the chance to do so!

Zhou han didn’t want to argue with her. He clenched his hands and took a deep breath before saying, ” “Recognize your own status, you have no right to control me!” With that said, he turned around and walked towards the ward with a stiff face.

“Stop right there!” Lin Li reached out to pull him and looked at him resentfully, saying, ” “You don’t have the right to be a father. No matter how dissatisfied and resentful you are towards your ex-wife, the child is innocent. What did he do to deserve such treatment? How old is he? which child at his age isn’t happy? why must a child bear the responsibility of the mistakes that you adults have made?”

He clenched his hands tightly and looked up at her. His gaze seemed to be able to eat her up. He said fiercely, ” “What do you know? what do you know? you don’t even know anything about the situation. What right do you have to point your fingers at me?” He pointed in the direction of the ward and said through gritted teeth, ” “He shouldn’t have come to this world!”

Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!

A crisp slap was heard as soon as Zhou han finished speaking. Time seemed to have stopped, and there was no sound at all.

Zhou Han’s face turned to the side, and the bright red palm print appeared. It took a while for him to regain his senses. He suddenly turned to look at her and was about to open his mouth in anger, but he saw that the person in front of him was already full of tears. Her teeth were biting her lips so hard that it seemed like she was going to bleed. Her entire body was trembling, and her hands were still trembling because of the slap.

“You …” All the words that were already on the tip of his tongue could not be said. Looking at her, Zhou han was a little surprised why she was so agitated.

what did he do wrong? why do you have to treat him like this? even if you’ve broken up with his mother, he’s innocent. How can you vent your hatred for his mother on him? ” Lin Li couldn’t control her tears at all. She cried as she said, ” what right do you have to say that he shouldn’t have come to this world? did he want to come? You guys forced him to come here! You gave him life and brought him to this world, so you have to be responsible for his life. Isn’t it too late to regret now?”

Lin Li cried and sat on the ground. She hugged herself tightly. do you know how it feels to lose a child? Do you know the powerlessness you feel when you can’t do anything while you watch his life disappear? Do you know that every night, there will always be someone in your dreams asking you why you don’t want him and why you didn’t bring him to this world to see? do you know that self-blame and guilt can erode you?” As she spoke, Lin Li shook her head. you don’t know anything. You don’t know anything … in the end, she wasn’t even sure if she was talking about him or herself …

Zhou han looked at her steadily. The anger on his face had completely dissipated and was replaced by shock and shock. Looking at her like this, he didn’t know what to do. In the end, he could only take a step forward and half-squat to pull her into his arms!
