94, Memoirs (8)
I remember when I first fell in love, every time I had a conflict with my family, Ziqian would stand by my side. But although she is simple, her brain is not stupid, and she gets along with me deeply, and she will more or less perceive what kind of person I have. The harsh reality told her that I was nowhere near as noble as she had thought I was.
Perhaps it was the death of her parents that woke her up, but after my mother's death, she not only lost her smile at me, but also almost disdained to deal with it, at best, she only took care of my face in public, giving others the illusion that we were still a loving couple.
She spent almost all her thoughts on Zhaodi, except for her son, there were no relatives in her mind.
As long as it doesn't hinder me from doing things, it doesn't matter how cold my wife is to me, anyway, I have already pocketed a lot of what I need from her.
As a wife, she asked her husband if he was going home for dinner, but there was no trace of warmth in her tone, and she would rather treat the nanny or driver at home. I won't blame her, I pretended to be stupid as always, but I couldn't resist the boredom in my heart, and said "no return, there is still a party at night", and walked out of the office.
That night, I did have a party.
Through the vigorous promotion of online and offline in recent years, the Tiandi Free Travel Club, which I cooperated with Hao Yun, has entered a mature and stable stage of development.
Judging from the content of the website, this is an online platform for finding travelers and freely combining travel teams, but after the successful registration of travelers, we will analyze and screen according to the information they provide, and then send a verification code to officially invite them to join our Free Society for the Unification of the Earth.
Everyone living in the melting pot of society has their own needs, and as long as they are given in a targeted manner, they can gain their trust. This method of recruiting members is both safe and effective, and although the number of members of the Freedom Society is not as large as that of the resurrected, by the time the Monument of Time is activated, it will be enough to exert the power of an Earth Army.
Every Wednesday night, the Liberty Society holds a secret meeting to discuss the operation of this period of time and to plan for the next phase of work.
After the party, I looked at the time, it was already the second half of the night, and I planned to go back to the office to rest, so as not to go back and wake up Ziqian and start listening to her nagging again.
But when I walked into the office and sat down at the desk and turned on the lamp, I immediately noticed something abnormal! The small medicine bottle was still in place, but when I looked through the transparent bottle, it was empty!
My pills...... No, what about my metallic hydrogen? That's my lifeline, and it's all I've had from the past to the present!
After the frustration, I forced myself to calm down and remember who might have been in and out of the office in the hours between I left and when I returned.
One by one, I eliminated the suspects, and finally I targeted Ziqian.
Pregnant with my second child, she lost all the joy she had when she first got Zhaodi. The nanny even secretly came to tell me that my wife wanted to get rid of the child. She never touched the drugs prescribed by the doctor to protect the fetus and keep the fetus safe, and she never deliberately protected herself.
Later, I figured out that although Ziqian was an atheist, her mother was a Catholic, and abortion was a taboo for Catholics.
In the past two days, Ziqian caught a cold, and as a pregnant woman, she should have gone to the hospital to take medicine under the guidance of the doctor, but she kept carrying it. I don't care much about her life, as long as she can walk and talk, I think she's healthy. But she never expected that she would swallow that metal hydrogen as a common cold medicine!
As soon as I realized this terrible accident, I jumped up from my chair and hurriedly called Ziqian and asked her to go to the hospital as quickly as possible.
But when I grabbed the microphone, I suddenly came to my senses and slowly put the microphone down.
The purpose of Powell giving me the pill back then was to control me like aliens control the resurrected ones, and push me to see some black mother. It's all because I'm careful that I don't follow his ways. So if you really want to swallow this thing in your stomach, what kind of rejection reaction your body will have, I've always been very curious, but I haven't tried it. I kept this pill for more than ten years, and I just took it out from time to time.
I also thought about finding someone to do an experiment to see how that person reacted after taking the medicine, but there was only one pill, and the failure of the experiment meant that I really had nothing, and I didn't dare to take this risk.
Now that Zi Qian has become a person taking medicine, is this providence? She is my wife, even if she is cold to me, she is also a person who is directly controlled by me, and she will test the medicine instead of me, I am not in danger and can verify Powell's words, but it is really a double win!
So this matter became my new secret. Since then, I have not locked myself in the office every day, but often come home to spend time with my wife.
Not only Ziqian, but almost everyone was surprised by my transformation. Those people, if they knew me well enough, should have guessed that there must be a reason for this change.
It's a pity that only Zhaodi is suspicious of me. The little one was only four years old and knew how to separate his mother from me. Whenever he saw us together, he would come running between us and push me away like that pesky bull terrier at home.
I didn't mention it to Ziqian about the "cold medicine", as if I had never noticed that she had taken the pill, but I had been secretly observing. However, two months have passed, and her due date is approaching, and her body has not changed.
Just when I decided that Powell had once again tricked me, and that the white thing was nothing more than a lump of starch, a horrific turn of events occurred, first in my second son.
In the early spring of that year, on a cold rainy night, Ziqian gave birth to a baby boy.
I stayed outside the delivery room while she gave birth, not to wait for the baby to be born, but to see if the pill would have an effect on the fetus.
Waiting, waiting, the riot I was expecting really appeared, the baby croaked to the ground, and the umbilical cord had just been cut, and a nurse's shrill scream came from the operating room.
Before I could react, it was a mess of porridge, and the doctor in charge of the delivery was yelling: "What are you doing in a daze? Wrap it in a soft towel and send it to the incubator! Fast! ”
Immediately after that, the door of the operating room was vigorously pushed open, and several nurses rushed to the other end of the corridor in a panic holding a bloody object. I tried to lean over to take a look, but was mercilessly knocked out of the way and fell to the ground.
When I was dizzy, someone helped me up from behind, it was the doctor and the babysitter who came with me.
"Mr. Qu, I'm so sorry!" The doctor said.
I stared blankly at him, wondering if the "I'm sorry" was a reference to pushing me down, or if the child was gone.
My strange expression, probably even the doctor mistook it for worry, and held my hand painfully to comfort: "Mr. Qu, don't worry, the child is still there." Oh, by the way, it's a boy, but he has a rare epidermolysis bullosa, the condition is very serious, the cause is currently unknown, the preliminary judgment is due to genetics, and we will inform you as soon as possible when further examination results are available. Don't be sad, the child's mother still needs your attention! ”
