Chapter 929: Chapter 929 Miscarriage 2

No matter how wonderful all her previous fantasies were, at this moment, she felt nothing but self-reproach and sadness.

Because she had been lost as a child, she knew better than anyone how crucial a parent’s company is for a child. Therefore, while anticipating the arrival of her child, she had often imagined how to lovingly care for her child once she became a mother.

But ultimately, no one could have predicted that the child she longed for would leave before having a chance to see the world.

He Zhilan gently touched her stomach, her eyes tearful, "The child was once so close to us, peacefully sleeping right here, but I was unaware, so I couldn’t protect him. The child is gone, surely he blames me, his inept mother."

"It’s okay, Zhilan, our child has his maternal grandfather accompanying him, he won’t be alone," were the only consoling words He Teng could think of. His hand gently caressed her face, which was so pale and delicate that it seemed like a thin membrane, transparent enough to see the blood vessels underneath, fragile as if she were a porcelain doll that might crack at the slightest touch.

Seeing that these words seemed to have some effect, He Teng sighed in relief, "The old man has passed and took our child with him. With grandpa there, our child won’t be lonely or scared. Although he couldn’t live in this world with us, he has his grandfather. It’s okay, when you recuperate, our child will come back."

"The child has his grandfather to accompany him on the netherworld road, they won’t be lonely or frightened, right? Grandpa loved me so much, he will surely take good care of the baby, right?" He Zhilan slowly looked up at He Teng.

"Yes, the child has the old man for company on his journey, he won’t be scared," He Teng nodded gently, speaking in a soft, tender voice, as if soothing a child, until he consoled He Zhilan to sleep.

The person in his arms stopped crying and gradually calmed down, her hand tightly clutching his sleeve, her eyes closed but not resting peacefully.

When He Teng walked out from the hospital room, the three waiting at the door immediately approached and anxiously asked, "How is she?"

"She fell asleep," He Teng replied, then, raising his hand, tiredly rubbed his brow, "How is her health? She’s okay, right?"

"Her body’s fine, but her constitution has always been weak and this miscarriage has drained her vitality. When we return home, we must take good care of her. Just like childbirth, a miscarriage requires replenishment and care to prevent her from catching a cold," Bian Muhe advised, unable to help sighing, "It was supposed to be such a happy occasion, but..."

"Brother, I’m sorry, I didn’t take good care of sister-in-law. I shouldn’t have let her go to the hospital alone; I should have accompanied her," He Dongxue sobbed softly.

"It’s not your fault, no one anticipated this sort of mishap," He Teng’s reproach, if any, was aimed only at himself for not taking better care of his wife.

"He Teng, you both are still young, there will be other children," Lin Chan finally said after a long silence, and then asked Bian Muhe, "How soon can Zhilan be discharged?"

"She needs to stay at least a week more, remain in bed, move less, and best to rest quietly in bed," Bian Muhe responded.

"We might as well bring her to the Lin family home," Lin Chan suggested, "We have a housekeeper, available 24 hours, ready to cater to any food cravings, and she will be well cared for."
