CHAPTER 603
Li Fengjin was so worried seeing tears form a pool at Wang Tingxiao's face. And then when he pulled away from him, his worry sky rocketed as Wang Tingxiao cried.
Wang Tingxiao was... crying.
"Bro... What's wrong? What's the matter?" Li Fengjin slightly shook his(Wang Tingxiao's) shoulders.
The others had gathered around them as Li Fengjin's panicked voice was beginning to scare them. Especially, Bai Renxiang.
Wang Tingxiao rested his head in Li Fengjin's shoulder and sobbed.
"I... I'm a father, Fengjin. I'm a f*cking dad, now," he choked out those words.
Li Fengjin confused at first. But things became clear within the next counting seconds. He breathed out in relief and pattrd Wang Tingxiao's head.
"You did well, bro. And welcome to fatherhood," he passed a congratulatory remark.
The others sighed out in relief at their interactions. Their minds had gone far... Bad far.
"My God, Tingxiao. You scared us," Yang Chen voiced out for them.
"Yeah." they all agreed.
Wang Tingxiao could only mumbled an apology before wiping his eyes. Those tears that meant nothing but joy. The feeling was overwhelming.
Soon the delivery door opened and those inside, walkes out in an orderly manner. They quickly rushed to Lisa's side.
There she laid, looking pale but her smile was evident. She held the baby in her arms, allowing it to feel her warmth and love.
"Lisa, are you okay?"
"How is the baby?"
"Is it a he or a she?"
They bomabreded her with their anxious questions. She beamed a smile at them before gazing back at the baby in her arms.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"It's a boy," Lisa informed them as her smile brightened.
"Praise God."
"He's so cute."
"Ahem! I don't mean to interrupt the joy, but how about you all wait till we get Mrs Wang settled in a ward first," one of the nurses said.
"Oh right. Sorry we were too carried away," Ning Xiaozhi apologised on everyonce's behalf.
"It is alright. The joy of a new life is inevitable and I understand," the nurse nodded. "Let's go."
"Ah. Mr Wang, may I have a word with you in my office," the doctor called out.
Wang Tingxiao shared a look with Li Fengjin before nodding in agreement to the doctor. The both of them then followed him to his office.
"Please have a seat," the doctor ushered th un and offered sits.
Wang Tingxiao moved quickly while Li Fengjin shook his time. His eyes took in the doctor's office.
It was in a theme of white. His desk and other furniture differed though. In his desk, Li Fengjin saw a name that seems to be the doctor's on a transparent glass plate.
It read, Dr. M. Zihao
Li Fengjin finally took a seat. The doctor cleared his throat and adjusted in his black sit- drawing closer to the table.
"So, the delivery was a success. The baby is as healthy as he should be. Everything is normal."
"Then, what is the issue, please?" Wang Tingxiao inquired.
Surely the doctor did not just call them hear to tell them that everything was normal. Right?
"Uhm, there may be a problem, Mr Wang. Your wife might not be able to go through child birth a second time," Dr Zihao dropped the bomb.
Wang Tingxiao and Li Fengjin were shocked. The room went silent for a stretch of time. The doctor was worried of how he(Wang Tingxiao) would take the news.
But seeing him now, Dr Zihao could discern that Wang Tingxiao is in a great deal of emotional pain. Which good husband would not be?
Li Fengjin tilted his head and asked, "Why? Lisa is a healthy woman. She did not suffer any harm during pregnancy. Her husband here made sure of it. We all did. So why won't she?"
Dr Zihao sighed and shook his head.
"That leaves me to a bothering question. And I hope Mr Wang does not mind my asking because I need to know," Dr Zihao seemed Wang Tingxiao's permission.
"G-Go ahead doctor," Wang Tingxiao stuttered.
"As Mr Li has just said, your wife did not suffer any sort of harm during pregnancy. Bit did she go through any before she got pregnant?" Dr Zihao asked.
Wang Tingxiao shook his head as soon as the door finished his question.
"No. Lisa does not even leave the house no matter how much I have asked her to. The only places she would bother going if at all she wants to go out are the houses of the Li, Ye and yang. Nowhere else," Wang Tingxiao answered.
"Our home is packed with guards down to the maids I hired to help her when I'm not around," he added.
Dr Zihao nodded and stroked his little mustache. "So she has not been printed to danger of any sort? Even by you, Mr Wang?"
Li Fengjin and Wang Tingxiao frowned at the doctors upsetting words.
"Are you perhaps implying that I would lay my hands in my wife? That I would even hit her?" Wang Tingxiao questioned whule he glared at the doctor.
"Yeah, Doc. Is that what you mean?" Li Fengjin backed up.
"I'm sorry to have sounded disrespectful or out of line. It is just what I noticed during Mrs Wang delivery is something to be worried about. And even questioned. That's why I asked," Dr Zihao apologised.
He was facing two known men in China here. He had to be careful but he also needs to know a few things for the good of his patient.
"What did you notice? Just hit the nail on the head, Doc," Wang Tingxiao frowned.
Somehow he was not liking where this things was going. For some reason, he feels restless. And that is rarely a good sign for him.
"Your wife's womb may be in a pretty bad shape. Bad enough that carry another baby will cost her much. There will be complications if she gets pregnant again," Dr Zihao informed them.
This was the worst. It felt as if a moutain had fallen upon Wang Tingxiao. His breath was caught in his throat and his eyes began to water.
"W-What?" He suffered out a word. "How?"
"What I have come to conclude is that your wife have this situation due to sexual violence."
GBAGHAN
"In fact, it is a miracle she delivered your child without any problems. But even with this, I will not advisable her to get pregnant again," Dr Zihao added.
Wang Tingxiao's eyes dropped close as he struggled to digest the wordd he has just heard.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"But I and Lisa have never... I have never forced Lisa into having sex. Even if we go rough, I always make sure to be gentle in some way," he said in a low voice.
"Even after we started staying together at the beginning of our relationship, I never forced her into anything because her ex used to–"
It is at this moment that Wang Tingxiao's brain welcomed a reality that has been locked up and buried away.
"That bloody bastard," Wang Tingxiao growled through gritted teeth.
Even Li Fengjin's became angry after putting a few pieces in the puzzle. It became as plain as day.
"Do you perhaps know a reason to this?" Dr Zihao asked as his eyes alternated between the two men seated in front of him.
"Yes. I very well know the reason that the f*cker behind this." And his ashes are in the depths of the sea.
Those words he said in his head.
"So she has suffered ill-treatment of ghat sort?"
"Yes. Before me, my wife had a very abusive boyfriend. He does whatever his crazy fantasies are to her. All against her own will," Wang Tingxiao balled his hands into a fist.
It was so tight to the extent his knuckles turned white. If possible, it could cause his palm to bleed. That is to show how angry he is.
Dr Zihao also shut his eyes and shook his head. It is always a sad and painful thing for any sane human to hear.
It hurts deep to the bones to hear that a woman was or is going through sexual violence or abuse of any sort.
"I'm so sorry to hear that," Dr Zihao sighed out.
"So... What happens now?" Li Fengjin asked.
"Mr Wang and his wife must thread carefully during bedroom activities. She can't afford to have another baby. If she those, there may be risks. Please," Dr Zihao advised.
"Yes, doctor," Wang Tingxiao nodded.
"That's good. But for now, she should take these medications to help her. The only unfortunate thing- well I won't call it unfortunate though. You wife lost a lot of blood."
"Yeah."
"Hmm. So we will put her on transfusion and monitor her well. These medications and the right blood giving foods will help her back on her healthy feet," Dr Zihao said as he scribbled on a plain sheet of paper.
"Here," he passed it to Wang Tingxiao.
"Thank you, Doc."
