Mai Douer was pushed out of the operating room, still unconscious. Her face was so pale that it seemed almost transparent and there was no color on her lips at all.

  Ning Shu followed them into the room and sat next to Mai Douer to watch over her. She was seriously worn out, so she fell asleep by the bed.

  When she woke up again, it was already light outside. She glanced over and saw that Mai Douer was already awake and staring blankly at the ceiling.

  Ning Shu asked, “When did you wake up?”


  Mai Douer turned her dull eyes towards Ning Shu and asked weakly, “Do I look really bad right now?”


  Ning Shu: …


  Shouldn’t she be asking how the child was?

  “There’s no good or bad about how pregnant people look.” Ning Shu got up to stretch a little. “You’re going to have to stay in the hospital for the time being. The doctor said that your health is really bad.”


  Mai Douer hastily asked, “Did I lose my child?”


  “It’s still there,” replied Ning Shu. She didn’t know if it was her misperception, but she actually saw a trace of disappointment appear in Mai Douer’s eyes.

  Was Mai Douer disappointed that the child was still there?

  Ning Shu then said, “You should rest up for the time being. The doctor said that you can’t work anymore and it’s best if you don’t get too stirred up either.”


  “But, but I still have to film.” Mai Douer’s brows were tightly furrowed with impatience.

  Ning Shu lifted her brows. “You want to film like this? Your body won’t be able to take it. You’re already showing signs that you might have a miscarriage. Filming is really tiring, so you’ll end up bleeding again like you did today. If other people see, it’ll arouse suspicion.”


  “But I’m that film’s main lead! It’s my first time ever being main lead! I, I really…” The more Mai Douer spoke, the angrier she became. Her facial color paled as her face contorted in pain and anger.

  “My stomach hurts, it really hurts.” Mai Douer hugged her stomach.

  Ning Shu: I…


  She didn’t even know what to say.

  She hastily called the doctor over and the doctor quickly gave Mai Douer a shot. Mai Douer was in so much pain that her face was covered with cold sweat.

  Mai Douer bit her lips hard, then she turned towards the doctor to force out the words, “I don’t want this child anymore. Help me abort this child.”


  “This…” The doctor looked towards Ning Shu. Ning Shu glanced over at Mai Douer to ask, “Are you sure?”


  Mai Douer bit her colorless lips and nodded towards Ning Shu before taking a deep breath to say, “I don’t want this child.”


  Ning Shu frowned. “Have you really thought things through?”


  “Do I have any other choice?” asked Mai Douer. Her body trembled as she cried, “I don’t any paths left to take.”


  “Then please sign,” said the doctor to Ning Shu, but Ning Shu waved him away. “I’m not her relative. Have her sign herself.”


  Mai Douer endured the pain to sign the paper, then she seemed to fall apart as she cried, “Hurry and get rid of this child for me. It hurts so much!”


  The nurses pushed the sickbed towards the operating room and Ning Shu stood outside to wait while staring at the lit operation light.
