Still reeling from shock

  The ghost is coming to attack

  My eyes were dull and I kept hearing the doctor's words echoing in my ears: I'm already two weeks pregnant!

  "Mo Xiaoya!" Huo Xiaojuan slammed the chair to the ground in anger, and it shattered into pieces all over the floor. I just glanced at it and continued staring blankly at the white wall in front of me.

  Impossible! How is it possible? He's a ghost! How could I possibly be pregnant with his child?! My mind was buzzing, I thought the doctor must have made some mistake somewhere, but facing my strong demand for a second check-up, I really had nothing to say.

  "Two weeks! That means you got pregnant with the child after marrying into the Huo family! My brother may be gone, but I won't let you trample on his dignity like this!"

  Facing Huo Xiaoqi who seemed to want to kill me, I didn't know what to say. I shook my head and said in a low voice: "I really don't know, what's going on!"

  "You don't know?" He burst out laughing, but all I could hear in that laughter was mockery.

  "What do you think our Huo family is? Fools? Letting you deceive us like this!"

  "I don't want to argue with you!" I put on my shoes and thought of going out for a walk alone, now it's really necessary for me to calm down and think carefully.

  Behind me, Huo Xiaojuan was yelling like a madman, but I didn't stop at all. After exiting the "door", on my way to the bathroom, when passing by An Ming's wife's sickroom, I still took a glance. At this time, it wasn't just An Ming who was waiting at the "door", but also Yunli's father-in-law from the An family, whom she wanted me to apologize to.

  "An Ming, what have you done? Why is this?" Old An asked gloomily.

  An Ming didn't come back, but instead patted his head with both hands, shaking it non-stop. I saw what looked like tears falling from the bottom of his feet, dripping onto his shoes.

  The old man suddenly patted An Ming's back and stood up, pointing to the window of the sick room: "She has your child in her belly, my grandson! No matter what you've done, I want her to give birth to the child safely!"

  "Dad! Do you think I did these things? A tiger doesn't eat its own son! How could I possibly do such a thing?"

  My gaze swept over the 'woman' inside, and she was also pregnant! Thinking back to that dream-like experience before, although it seemed like a dream to others, only I knew it was real, except for the child in her belly...

  After a sigh, I shook my head and didn't stop until I reached the end of the corridor, gazing into the distance. My hand unconsciously went to my belly, where a new life was already growing.

  I don't know how long I stood there until the darkness fell, and then I realized that my vision had no image anymore, and I also made a decision!

  I want to keep this child, not for anything else, because it's my own child, and has nothing to do with anyone else! No matter who the father of the child is, as long as the child is in my belly, that means the child is normal!

  Even Hsiao Ran, I wouldn't tell him. For the sake of the child in my belly, I need to leave the Ho family as soon as possible. This child is not welcome, and if anyone finds out about his existence, both he and I will be in mortal danger.

  A gust of wind blew by, bringing a chill, and I pulled my clothes tighter as I prepared to head back to the infirmary. There was still one more person I needed to inform that if I wanted to keep this child, he would have to be sworn to secrecy at Ho Xiao's place.

  As I passed by An Ming's wife's ward, there was no one at the 'door' anymore. It wasn't until my eyes glanced into the room that I suddenly stopped in my tracks, because the person who should have been lying on the hospital bed was slowly sitting up at this moment, and the movement looked very unnatural, I don't know how to describe it.

  Watching her pull off the wires of those instruments on her body, I covered my mouth and took a deep breath. Did I faint again? It wasn't until I pinched myself hard on the arm that the pain told me this was real!

  When I saw the woman wrapped in a bloody bandage slowly getting up and walking towards the window, I suddenly felt that she would jump from there. Without thinking much, I quickly turned the door open and rushed in. Just as I stopped my footsteps, the woman who was approaching the window also stopped, her head slowly turning to look in my direction.

  Bang! With her movement, the 'door' behind me was closed, and even the curtains on the window were closed with a rustling sound.

  She just stood there quietly, and after seeing that I didn't make another move, she slowly turned her head back around, awkwardly starting to walk towards the open window...

  "Hey!" I shouted: "No matter who you are! This 'woman' is innocent!" Actually, I didn't know where my courage came from, but after I shouted, she suddenly stopped.

  "Do you know that she has a child in her belly! The child! No matter what the adults did wrong, the child in the belly is innocent." As for that 'woman', I didn't even exchange a word with her, but when I heard today that she was also pregnant, I suddenly felt a sense of being connected by fate.

  In any case, I also want to try and save the child in her belly!

  Seeing her suddenly stop, I thought she was hesitant, and my heart couldn't help but feel a little joy. Also because of this moment of hesitation, it made me think that this ghost might really be one of An Ming's previous 'girl' friends.

  Unfortunately, this brief pause lasted less than three minutes, and she began to walk towards the window again. No matter how I shouted, she didn't stop until she slowly climbed onto the railing of the balcony. I rushed over and firmly grabbed her hand.

  "An Ming! It was An Ming who killed you, wasn't it?" I shouted out.

  But she stared at me with a very 'gloomy' smile, the white gauze wrapped around her head began to seep out red blood due to that smile, and I didn't dare to think more, nor did I dare to let go, because I knew that once I let go, the last hope of the child in her belly would be gone.

  "If it's because of An Ming, then why don't you go find him? You clearly know she's innocent!"

  "Fire, launch!"

  She suddenly spoke and shocked me. The voice was terrifying, it was a thin, sharp, and eerie sound that sent shivers down my spine.

  "No! Don't let go! Your death is not her fault, if you're seeking revenge, then please don't harm innocent people again. Go find the person who hurt you and make them kneel before you, admit their mistake, or kill them directly, that's fine, but not innocent people! Moreover, she has a child in her belly!"

  Because it was so close, with the moonlight, I saw that the eyes which were almost wrapped in gauze actually shone with tears...

  "Don't think that with him protecting you, you can be reckless. If he really starts a fight, he won't have the upper hand either! That kind of vengeful spirit without any blood on his hands, he doesn't even qualify as a ghost!"

  I was stunned for a moment, not expecting her to shift the topic to Huo Xiao Ran. The force in my hand relaxed due to my earlier distraction, but unexpectedly, I saw her mouth curve even higher, and the gauze on her face had somehow turned into a bloody patch at some point. However, the tears in her eyes became even more apparent!

  "No!" I shouted loudly, leaning forward, and in the last moment, I tightly grasped her hand, watching as her body swayed in mid-air.

  "Hold me tight, don't let go!" I said with effort, I knew this 'woman' could hear, otherwise how could there be tears in her eyes!

  I thought the female ghost wouldn't do anything else, but right before my eyes, a black shadow began to separate from her body. My heart started racing wildly until a dark shadow on her back slowly began to spread out. Then, I saw a charred face with only one blood-red pupil.

  "It's not her fault! Why can't you let go?! Who wronged you, go find them, the innocent person's life can't eliminate the resentment in your heart!" This time, I was no longer afraid, because I knew that the slightly numb hands were holding onto two lives!

  The black shadow stretched out to my hand and suddenly stopped in mid-air, then slowly withdrew from in front of my eyes. I watched intently, using all my strength not to let go of her hand. Outside the door, a commotion started to spread, followed by what sounded like someone banging on the door. I glanced over and pulled her hand even tighter.

  "Next time! If you dare block me again, I won't let you off!"

  When I turned back because of her voice, the black figure on her body had disappeared! And she also burst into tears.

  "What are you doing?" Huo Xiaoqi was the first to rush over to me, and as soon as she saw that I was dragging someone with my hand, she stretched out her hand to help.

  As I watched her being pulled up by Huo Xiaoqi, I let out a long sigh. Until the 'girl' was pulled up by Huo Xiaoqi, An Ming rushed in and hugged the 'girl', bursting into tears.

  "Why are you so stupid? We still have a child! Oh, our child! How can you be so selfish and want to take the child away!"

  I know that in their eyes, she may just think that she wants to commit suicide because of her severe burns all over her body, but I'm very clear that she's strong! Even if she was possessed by a female ghost and controlled her body, she still wanted to live.

  "Muni, no matter how serious the injury is, even if it means bankrupting our family, I will do my best to cure you. Don't worry too much, just take good care of yourself. Besides, no matter what happens to you, I, An Ting, will only recognize you as my wife!"

  It was then that I knew the old man of the An family was called An Tingren!

  "Are you alright?" Huo Xiaoqi asked, patting me on the shoulder.

  I calmly shook my head, not expecting him to come looking for me again. I thought he had made up his mind that I had cheated on him with Huo Xiao Ran and would leave in anger, then go back and tell Yun Li about everything that happened here. He really shocked me.

  Looking at An Jia's tense appearance, my heart feels sour. I know that Muni can still receive such treatment now, not to mention whether An Ming really loves her or not, most of the reasons are because she is pregnant with An Ming's child.
