Chapter 470: Our Daughter
"An’an, it will definitely succeed." Han Jing looked at An Chuxue, speaking both to her and to herself.
An Chuxue’s eyes were a bit wet, but she still nodded.
She was still afraid, but she still trusted her. Since she arrived in this world, wandering without reliance for so long, it was only after meeting Han Jing that she felt she had a backbone. She had always trusted her, believed in her perseverance and endurance, that she would not be defeated or disappointed.
"An’an, listen to me. When the time comes, Yun Feng will definitely give me an anesthetic so I won’t wake up. He will definitely drug me; you have to keep an eye on it, and then swap the drug. I don’t want to be trapped and uninformed at that moment. Do you understand?" Han Jing carefully instructed.
If at that time they have to change the blood for the child, they will definitely do it behind her back. To prevent her from knowing the truth, Yun Feng will surely drug her.
She didn’t know how long she would be unconscious once she was drugged. She could not allow herself to remain unaware at that time.
No matter what happens, she must see it with her own eyes.
Crying, An Chuxue nodded. She understood Han Jing’s concerns. In fact, according to her wishes, she wouldn’t let Han Jing watch all that either. Because there is always a chance of things going wrong, regardless of success or failure, the process is the most agonizing. She had witnessed mothers watching helplessly as their child could not be resuscitated. It’s a cruelty beyond description, and she didn’t want Han Jing to possibly go through all that.
But she couldn’t refuse. Han Jing was too headstrong. Even if she didn’t help, Han Jing would find a way on her own.
Rather than that, it was better to go along with her wishes.
After An Chuxue left, Han Jing sat alone by the window for a long time, until Su Yu came back and she realized that it was already dark.
"What’s wrong?" Su Yu, hearing that Han Jing had been sitting by the window all afternoon, couldn’t help but feel a bit worried.
Han Jing shook her head, "Nothing, I’m just a bit nervous... You know, what if our daughter isn’t pretty when she is born? What if she has a face full of birthmarks? It’s so nerve-wracking..."
Su Yu reached out to ruffle her hair, "Nonsense!"
Yet in his heart, doubt once again crossed his mind; this was the third time she had mentioned ’our daughter.’
He didn’t understand feelings, nor how to like someone. He never even thought that he would one day fall for anyone. So at first, towards Han Jing, he only had a heart of protection, without affection. But meeting her gave him an unexpected new beginning; he clearly felt his own heartbeat, speeding up for her.
He didn’t even know when it started, but they became more and more in tune, closer, caring more for each other, and liking each other more. To the extent that intimacy blurred boundaries, making each other the most important, the softest existence in their hearts.
He enjoyed this beauty, naturally following her wishes, her thoughts, focusing only on happiness.
Yet he forgot, in his initial scheme, she never knew that the child had any connection to him, so when she naturally mentioned ’our daughter,’ he didn’t react in any unusual way.
He looked down at her, her eyes full of soft warmth, something he had never seen there before.
