Chapter 928: A Woman’s Despair


Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios


Hearing the old woman’s words, everyone believed her.


They all thought that the woman on the top floor who was about to jump off the building was looking for trouble because she had just given birth and had postpartum depression. Who would have thought that it was because she despised the trouble of taking care of the child and wanted to live?


Young people nowadays were not as strong as those women in the past.


Hence, the people who had been persuading that woman not to commit suicide had changed.


Qi Bufan heard the crowd shout and tell the person upstairs—


“Miss, don’t take it so hard. That’s a piece of flesh that fell off your body! How can you be so ruthless as to jump off a building with a child? She reincarnated into your family! You’re committing a sin!”


“Yes, yes. We’re all women. We’ve all given birth and taken care of children. Don’t be so unreasonable! Hurry up and carry the child down. Don’t do anything stupid!”


“This child is really pitiful to have such a mother. Nowadays, pregnant women suffer from depression all the time. You just moan about nothing.”


Qi Bufan did not know what the real situation was, so he did not comment.


He looked up at the roof and saw that the woman seemed to be crying. She hugged the little baby tightly in her arms, as if that was her entire world. Qi Bufan’s life was given to him by his captain. He had to do more good deeds to live up to his captain’s efforts.


There was indeed something in the training base that he needed to deal with, but nothing was more important than human life. Without hesitation, Qi Bufan turned around and walked towards the roof.


No matter the truth, a woman who had just become a mother actually wanted to jump off a building with her child. She must have encountered a hurdle that she could not overcome.


As Qi Bufan took the elevator upstairs, the people downstairs were still persuading the woman who was about to jump off the building.


Ah Hui’s man’s face turned pale. He was afraid and angry. He shouted at Ah Hui, “Ah Hui, hurry downstairs. Don’t take things too hard!”


Ah Hui seemed to have lowered her head, probably looking at Ah Jun and waiting for him to say something.


Ah Jun wanted to say that if she could not give birth to a boy, she would give birth to another one next time. His mother guessed his plan, so she tugged at his sleeve and whispered into his ear, “Are you stupid? If you say that, everyone will know why she jumped off the building. If word gets out, it will be bad for our family’s reputation!”


Ah Jun felt that his mother’s words made sense.


“Ah Hui, if you’re sad, you can tell me. We’re family. What can’t you tell me honestly? Don’t court death. Don’t forget, Ling Ling is still at home. Ling Ling is still waiting for us to bring her sister back!”


When Ah Hui heard Ah Jun’s last sentence, her heart ached even more.


Ling Ling…


What happiness could a girl have in this family?


The younger daughter in her arms kept crying, perhaps infected by her mother’s emotions. When Ah Hui heard her daughter’s cries, her heart was even more sorrowful. “I’m sorry, Nan Nan. I’m sorry. You’ve chosen the wrong mother. Next time, find a good family to reincarnate in.”


“There’s no room for us in this family. If we continue to live, we’ll only suffer.”


“Nan Nan, don’t be afraid. Mom will carry you. Let’s leave this world together…”


Seeing that Ah Hui was still sitting on the rooftop and did not give up on the idea of jumping off the building, Ah Jun finally panicked. “Mom, I’ll go upstairs. Watch from below and persuade her not to jump off the building.”


His mother scolded him for being troublesome. Then, she said to Ah Hui, “Ah Hui, even if you don’t think for yourself, you have to think for your children. If you leave, you’ll be free. What about Lingling? What about Ah Jun?”


“It’s not a big deal. You always want to die! You, as a mother, how can you be annoyed by a child crying?”


When the surrounding people heard Ah Jun’s mother’s words and looked at Ah Hui with even more disdain.


When Ah Hui heard Ah Jun’s mother’s words, she smiled bitterly.


Knowing that she was bent on death, Ah Jun’s mother was afraid that her jumping off the building would implicate her son’s reputation and ruin his family’s reputation, so she deliberately said this lie to confuse others.


She was really a good mother-in-law!


Why didn’t she tell others that she wanted to jump off the building because she was forced by them?


They probably did not dare.


Ah Hui looked into the distance, her heart barren. She was only 35 years old. She was not young, but she was not old either. After she graduated from a graduate school at the age of 25, she listened to her mother and married Li Zijun.


In the third year after their marriage, she gave birth to Ling Ling.


At that time, her mother-in-law’s att.i.tude towards her was considered good. She had a high-paying job and could give birth. In addition, she was not too old yet. She thought that she could give birth to another child. Although she was unhappy that her first child was a daughter, she had never really fallen out with her.


Later on, the second child policy was opened up. The women in the company and the women around her were busy giving birth. At the end of the year two years ago, she had the chance to run for the position of the company’s deputy general manager, but she lost the right because she was pregnant with the second child.


The child was a male fetus, but when she was on maternity leave for more than six months, she realized that the fetus had a water sac-like lymphatic tumor and had no choice but to terminate the pregnancy. That surgery not only took away a small life, but also all the patience her in-laws had for her.


Ah Hui was very sad for a while after the child was gone, and she stopped working during that time.


Later on, when she returned to the workplace, she realized that the company could no longer accommodate her. In the second half of last year, she realized that she was pregnant again. This time, she had to give birth to this child no matter what.


Later on, during the prenatal checkup, Ah Jun spent some money and found out the gender of the fetus in advance.


It was a girl.


Ah Hui insisted on giving birth to this child. Her mother-in-law was naturally very unwilling to do so. As she had lost a child before, Ah Hui understood that kind of pain. Since she had decided to give birth to this child, she would not give in anymore.


Ah Jun’s reaction was cold. He did not suggest that she abort the child, nor did he look forward to the child’s arrival.


Five to six months after she got pregnant, Ah Hui realized that Ah Jun had someone else outside.


There were always some strange things in his pocket. Sometimes it was a woman’s lipstick, sometimes it was her hair, and sometimes it was earrings or other jewelry. This was the woman outside Ah Jun’s house showing off to her. Ah Hui had been holding back on account of the child in her stomach and Ling Ling.


This time, the child was born a week earlier than the due date. When her contractions started, she called Ah Jun and the person who answered the phone was actually a woman. At that moment, Ah Hui knew that she and Ah Jun were completely finished.


After her daughter was born, her mother-in-law kept nagging and scolding her.


In the past two years, Ah Hui had been mentally exhausted by her parents. This time, after giving birth, she easily suffered from postpartum depression. This morning, when she discovered the few lipstick marks on Ah Jun’s white s.h.i.+rt, a wave of despair filled her heart again.
