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.
