Chapter 570: Chapter 571: It’s Not Her Fault

Nangong’s wife hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, this is not Fu Han’s fault, nor He Xing’s. Besides, didn’t He Xing already bring over an expert? Please don’t be like this."

Wang Yixuan’s hand slowly loosened, and he stepped back two steps to take a look at He Xing. Without a word, he turned and returned to his original spot, standing as immovable as a tree that had grown from the soil.

The hospital was quiet at night, and even quieter outside the Emergency Room where no one else was present.

A cold wind swept through from somewhere, growing cooler by the moment, making one’s scalp tingle and hands and feet icy.

All four of them remained silent, the only sound being the red light on top of the Operating Room that kept flickering, intensifying the palpable distress.

After thinking for a moment, Nangong’s wife asked, "He Xing, how is Fu Han doing now?"

"She..." He Xing sighed softly and then regained his composure, "Fu Han only has superficial wounds, except for the shoulder injury which is more serious, but it’s not life-threatening. She was originally waiting for Nan Qing to finish her surgery. I asked the doctor for two sleeping pills and secretly gave them to her; she’s already asleep now."

"That’s good to hear," Nangong’s wife visibly relieved, took another look at the Operating Room and then, with a note of guilt, said, "I can’t leave at the moment, so I can’t visit Fu Han. Please take good care of her."

After a pause, Nangong’s wife’s gentle voice rose again, "You... tell Fu Han that no one wished for this to happen. But what’s done is done, and no one will blame her. Tell her not to be too hard on herself."

"Understood," He Xing looked deeply at Nangong’s wife, "Auntie, thank you. I think Fu Han will feel better hearing these words. She... she blames herself for not being able to protect Nan Qing."

"This isn’t Fu Han’s fault," Mr. Nangong, who had been silent all along, also spoke up, his deep voice carrying the authority of someone long in command, "Ultimately, the child wasn’t meant to be with Nan Qing. Now, all I hope is that Nan Qing’s health recovers soon. Fu Han is also a poor child. You must investigate this matter thoroughly and seek justice for the two of them."

"Certainly," He Xing’s eyes sparkled like cold stars as he looked at Mr. and Mrs. Nangong, "Uncle, Auntie, rest assured, I will inform you as soon as there’s any news."

"Hmm," Nangong’s wife nodded and patted He Xing’s shoulder, "Fu Han still needs you... you should go back and be with her now. We’re here, and I’ll call you if anything happens."

Earlier, when He Xing had brought the Head Doctor over, he also gave his business card to Nangong’s wife, so they could easily contact him.

Although Fu Han was sleeping, today’s events had frightened He Xing. He was indeed worried about her. Without further ado, he said his goodbyes and quickly left.

Once again, only three people remained in the corridor. Nangong’s wife glanced at Wang Yixuan’s distressed face and sighed, saying helplessly, "Yixuan, I know you’re devastated about losing the child, but really, you can’t blame Fu Han. I was about to ask the servant to send Fu Han the key, but Nan Qing insisted on delivering it herself, and she was staying at Huating No.1 tonight as well."

"I know," Wang Yixuan clenched his fist and, in a painful blow, hit the wall, "It’s my fault for not protecting Nan Qing, not protecting our child."

After finding out she was pregnant, Nan Qing wanted to return to A-City to nurture her baby. Even though Wang Yixuan was used to a wanderer’s life, soon he would have a wife and child, and settling down in A-City didn’t seem like a bad idea to him.

If one settles down, one should have their own business, their own home.

Wang Yixuan had been looking at houses and shops recently. After buying the house and the shop, he had to oversee the decorations, so he was incredibly busy all these days.

As for Nan Qing, Wang Yixuan arranged for her to spend her days with her mother at her parents’ home and in the evenings, after he finished work, he would pick up Nan Qing and stay overnight at Huating No.1.

Today was like any other day, except Fu Han found out at lunch that she had forgotten her keys, so she sent Nan Qing a message asking her to come home early to let her in.

Having nothing better to do, Nan Qing agreed to Fu Han’s request, timing her visit to coincide with Fu Han’s end of work.

Nan Qing had planned to drag Fu Han to a barbecue after finding her. Since her pregnancy, she was under strict dietary control, with Wang Yixuan checking everything before she ate it, especially prohibiting her from eating barbecue.

As for Nan Qing’s parents, they had the cook prepare a special meal plan for pregnant women—nutritious but bland, and bland food just didn’t appeal to Nan Qing’s appetite at all.

Thus, she came up with this idea, using the excuse of delivering the keys to Fu Han to enjoy a barbecue together. Alas, she hadn’t anticipated this turn of events.

Certainly, Nan Qing’s plan was unbeknownst to her parents and Wang Yixuan. They only knew that Nan Qing was bringing the keys to Fu Han herself, and then this incident occurred.

Halted in his recollections, Wang Yixuan slightly lifted his head to view the light above the Emergency Room; it was still red, as glaring as fresh blood.

Avoiding the light, he sighed deeply, "If I had seen Fu Han being chased today, I would have also unhesitatingly saved her. But Nan Qing... she was pregnant, I really didn’t want to..."

He didn’t finish his sentence, but both Mr. and Mrs. Nangong understood what he meant.

Yet, fate is often cruel in its irony, the thing you think won’t happen happens right beside you, and the path you think will be smooth is often filled with obstacles.

What is destined to occur will happen; you can’t hide from it, nor can you escape it.

"Yixuan, stop thinking about those things, let the past be past," Mrs. Nangong said, looking at Wang Yixuan with a mixture of heartache.

Just as she was about to say more, the red light abruptly went out, and the door to the Operating Room opened.

The three of them became agitated and rushed to the door, anxiously asking the first Doctor who came out, "Doctor, how is Nan Qing?"

The first to emerge was the white-haired expert He Xing had invited, who was removing his mask as he said, "I’m sorry I couldn’t save the baby, but her health is fine. With proper care, she can get pregnant again in the future."

At the door, the three of them breathed a synchronized sigh of relief. At this moment, Nan Qing was being wheeled out, and Mrs. Nangong and Wang Yixuan immediately went to her side, while Mr. Nangong expressed his gratitude to the elderly expert, who had hurried over from home to operate on Nan Qing.
