Chapter 65:生气 (Angry) 

Part 2

He Ling abruptly fell paralyzed on the bed. He held his stomach with one hand while covering his face with the other. He was choked with sobs and couldn't make a sound as the sparkling and translucent teardrops slipped through his fingers, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry .... I almost killed our child, it's my fault!"

If he had told his husband earlier about his discomfort, he would have found out about the child earlier and he would have been able to protect him more carefully. He would not also be in this kind of situation today.

        "Do you think it's this child that I care about?"

His cold voice caused He Ling to raise his head, he met with Qi Yue's eyes that carried some disappointment in it. He even forgot to cry and stared at him blankly, "Xiang Gong?"

        "You still don't understand exactly why I'm angry." Qi Yue let out a soft laugh that the emotion in it could not be described. He then took a few steps back before he turned his body and left the room until his figure disappeared and couldn't be seen anymore. 

He Ling sat frozen on the bed, letting his tears drip down one by one following along his chin and wet the bedding. He didn't know what to do, like a child who had been abandoned.

        Qi Yue went out of the room and looked at the moon which was not in round shape in the sky.He sighed for a long time, he knew he shouldn't get angry at A Ling, but he couldn't control it. 

When Lin Xiaohu ran to the field to tell him that Ah Ling had fainted, no one knew how worried and frightened he was, especially when he saw him lying in Wu Yulan's arms with a pale face, he simply felt as if his breath was stopped. 

    Unfortunately, at this moment, Wu Yulan whose face was also pale, told him that she was afraid that A Ling probably had miscarried.At that split second, his mind went blank and he could not even remember how he had carried the other party home.

    He undoubtedly knew how brilliant his own medical expertise was. If he didn't want to let go of someone, even the Yama King (King of Hell) wouldn't be able to pull the person over whatever the case was, but he was still nervous and both of his hands were trembling.

        What if he used the wrong medicine, what if he injected the wrong needle, all he could think about was all kinds of things that were impossible to happen, he couldn't get it out of his mind.

        If he had abandoned that child, it would have been easier to save* A Ling, but he knew in his heart that when his little Fu Lang woke up, he would be in so much pain and blame himself.

(*provide critical care)

        A Ling couldn't possibly understand. How could a piece of flesh that hadn't fully developed could compare to him? If he could keep the child for A Ling, he could give up the child for A Ling too.

        Qi Yue's eyes turned dark as he put his hands behind his back and slowly walked out of the courtyard door. The amount of anger inside his heart has to search for a place to pour it out, doesn't it? It happened to be that there was a score he hadn't settled on yet.

        Ever since she ran away at noon.

Qian's heart had been terrified and uneasy. The sight of He Ling sitting on the floor looking at her, it was as if she had been transported back to the time when she had faced He Ling's mother all those years ago.

        "What are you doing? Are you going to eat or not?" He Tian frowned when he saw that she didn't use her chopstick to take the meal, the chopstick stayed in her mouth for a long time.

        Qian awkwardly put down her chopsticks, called awake by the sound of his voice.She laughed dryly and said, "I was thinking about the land harvest, and I got carried away without realising it." 

        "It's all because this son is useless now and can't help you!" Hearing her mention this, He Gui also put down his chopsticks. He felt more and more like a useless person now. 

        "Don't say that!" Qian patted his hand and said comfortingly, "We've bought the ox back, so when the cart is ready tomorrow, you'll be able to help carry the grain.You can still drive a cart!"

        He Gui opened his mouth, wanted to say something when he heard a loud bang outside. The three of them were stunned and ran out of the hall to see that the door of their house had been kicked and broken. 

        "Qi Yue, what are you doing?" He Tian was annoyed and furiously pointed at the man standing behind the door. Their family had stopped messing with him recently, how come he still refused to leave them alone!

        Qi Yue hooked his lips up, smiled coldly while he ignored his question, walking straight up to He Gui who had just rushed out with his cane and kicked him over onto the ground.

        "Ah! Son!" Qian cried out in fear and lunged over to help the person, but a step too late. 

        Qi Yue grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up, at the same time also avoiding Qian's hand. He Gui was being carried by him, unable to use his left leg and could only rely on one leg to hold on, the strangled collar still making him a little breathless and choking his face red.

        "What are you trying to do?!" He Tian was furious and angry. This person was unreasonably looking for trouble in their house. 

        "You, quickly let him go!" Qian just felt as if her heart was being lifted along with her son. Her anxious tears were almost falling down. 

        "Does your heart ache?" Qi Yue hooked his lips into a smile and shook the man he was carrying in his hand, suddenly changing his expression again and said in a cold voice, "Then think about how distressed I must have been, when I saw A Ling today!"

        Qian choked on her breath, she began to dodge from his gaze as she muttered, "I didn't mean it, I didn't do it on purpose!"

        He Tian heard this and his annoyed gaze turned to her, "What have you done again?!"

        Qi Yue kicked at He Gui's intact leg, the other man fell straight to his knees in pain, his knee knocking against the cold hard ground, another painful blow that made him let out a cry of pain!

        "Don't you hit him anymore. It's my fault. It's all my fault!" Qian's heart ached so much at the sight of her son's distorted face. She feared that he would hurt his son's other intact leg. 

        Qi Yue flung his hand and threw the man into the ground violently, watching him shrink into a ball, in pain, then he looked at Qian with a cold smile, "If you dare to touch even one more hair of A Ling again, I will make your son ...."

        Talking to this point, his face tilted to the side while he looked at the ox bolted to the side, his hand flipped and put something into its mouth, turning his gaze back and said, "Like this ox."

    He left them with this phrase,the words that made them puzzled. Qi Yue swung his sleeves, turned his head and left the courtyard of their house.

        When his figure disappeared, the robust healthy ox fell down to the ground, foaming, and after a moment it went silent.

        "Ah!" Qian let out a scream, her eyes rolled back then she fainted. 

He Tian's legs went limp as he sat down on the ground.He looked at the ox that he had just bought a few days ago, the ox which had not been used, had lost its life in this way. He hated in his heart that he was unable to scrape her alive, that stupid woman who could only caused him trouble!
