Back Then, I Adored You

“Do you know that was a life? That was my child! Why did you abort it without even telling me?

“Were you not intending to tell me you were pregnant at all if the cleaner hadn’t discovered the pregnancy test kit? And then I’d just be a fool, not knowing that my child once existed in this world?

“Xu Wennuan, you can hate and despise me, or even kill me, but why did you kill my child?”

He had been so happy when he had found out he was a father, but now Lu Bancheng’s heart was filled to the brim with fury. When he had found out about her pregnancy, he had thought about giving her his entire world.

I bought her supplements and books, hired a caretaker, and even was going to propose to her… But what about her? She finds out she’s pregnant yesterday, and this morning she’s at the hospital mercilessly aborting my child, and never said a word!

The gap between heaven and hell made Lu Bancheng lose all sense of rationality. His grip on Xu Wennuan’s collar grew more forceful, causing her neck to hurt as he shook her with all his might. He shook her so much that she grew giddy, but he showed no pity or desire to relent. As he gnashed his teeth, the words he said were becoming increasingly more venomous. “Xu Wennuan, I’ve never seen such a cold-blooded and unfeeling woman like you! You’re a goddamn murderer! It’s no wonder Wu Hao cheated on you! It’s no wonder Wu Hao slept with Jiang Qianqian! Who could possibly like a woman like you? You deserve being betrayed and abandoned!”

Xu Wennuan’s face grew completely pale as a result of the second half of Lu Bancheng’s speech. She tried to hold her weak body up as she returned Lu Bancheng’s gaze and said, “Yes, I am a murderer. The reason why I murdered is because of you, rapist!”

“Don’t you want to know why I aborted the child?

“It’s because I don’t want to have anything more to do with you! I just want time to pass quickly, for our wedding anniversary to come soon, and to leave you as soon as I can!

“Lu Bancheng, do you know that the one thing I regret the most in my entire life is getting to know you and treating you as a friend! I’m willing to give birth to anyone else’s child except for yours! Because you’re not qualified!”

Lu Bancheng’s temple started twitching even more aggressively at her words.

He suddenly weakened his grip on her, and his gaze was icy as he stared at her pale, delicate face. Then, he started laughing coldly. “You’re not willing to give birth to my child? Then whose child do you want to give birth to? Wu Hao’s?”

Lu Bancheng sighed as he prepared to become more unfiltered and out of line. “Do you think Wu Hao really likes you? What did you tell me back then? You said that what Wu Hao did is proof that he likes you—that the two of you were together for 10 years, but he never once touched you? Yeah, he didn’t touch you, but he did touch Jiang Qianqian, right? And he even made Jiang Qianqian pregnant! If he really likes you, do you think he would have gotten involved with her?”

“Oh, and you don’t know this, but I ran into him a few days ago, and he’s still together with Jiang Qianqian. Maybe she’ll even get pregnant with Wu Hao’s child again in a few days!”

“And you? You not only were betrayed by the boyfriend you’d been with for 10 years, but you were also raped and your virginity was taken away from you by a drunk man! There’s nobody to take care of you after your abortion, either… How pitiful!”
