Long Sijue felt as if he was suffocating. Tang Zui knew that he had to deal with the pain sooner or later, so he simply told him everything at once.

The information included the fact that after Su Qianxun found out that the fetus was dead, she refused to believe it and went to eight other hospitals for checkups. The results she received were the same. The doctors even told her that if she did not abort the fetus, she would be in danger. Still, she refused to believe in what they said and wanted to keep the baby.

However, in the end, she had a miscarriage.

At that moment, Long Sijue felt like someone had torn his body into shreds and hammered his soul!

He could not imagine how despaired and heartbroken the young woman must be after she went to eight different hospitals and received the same results every single time…

“Why did the fetus die… Was it because of the venom in my body?” Long Sijue finally managed to speak after a long silence.

“Probably not. The doctor said… during the first three months, fetuses are frail and vulnerable. It might be because… you guys were doing it too intensely, and this led to an increased risk of miscarriage,” Tang Zui bit the bullet and told him the truth. After all, it was not a small matter. He must not tell a while lie to comfort Long Sijue.

The cigarette in Long Sijue's hand was scorching his fingers, yet he acted as if he could not feel the pain. So, it was his fault. He was the reason that their unborn child died in her womb.

She did not tell him that. Perhaps, she was afraid that he would be upset and blame himself. Therefore, she chose to keep it a secret and suffer the pain alone.

“Jue, don't be upset. You'll have another child. That chick might have to work a little harder in bed, though.” Tang Zui thought of Long Sijue's situation and felt rather helpless.

“Do you know how I got my eating disorder?” Long Sijue suddenly extinguished his cigarette in the ashtray and asked a seemingly irrelevant question.

Tang Zui as well as Si Mancheng froze for a moment and looked at him. Long Sijue continued, “When I was young, Xiao Mingyan allowed me to have pets. Once I developed affection for them, she would make me eat them… After that, I did not dare to give my affection to anything, and whenever I saw food, I would feel like puking.”

As a child, he was afraid of being abandoned again, so he did not resist. But he knew the pain of loss very well. Therefore, when the young woman wanted to avenge Long Xiaoxun today, he did not stop her the second time…

It was the exact reason why he never dared to develop affection for anyone or anything…

Once Long Sijue finished speaking, he strode off. Tang Zui and Si Mancheng exchanged glances in disbelief. It was such a horrifying thing to learn. They were traumatized just by the thought of it. No wonder Long Sijue had such a bizarre health condition.

Storm stayed by Su Qianxun's side quietly the entire time. It licked her hand or face every now and tried to comfort her. When Long Sijue entered the room, Storm immediately raised its front legs and stared at him.

“Come with me.” Long Sijue dragged her out of bed.

“Don't touch me!” Su Qianxun did not feel like seeing him at all.

Long Sijue stayed quiet for a moment.

“Let's bury Long Xiaoxun.” He gazed at her with a profound look in his eyes. It was something he had wanted to do when he was young, but he was unable to do so because Xiao Mingyan did not allow it.

Su Qianxun held her breath sharply.

Long Sijue was about to carry her out of the room. Su Qianxun quickly said, “Wait a minute.”

She went over to the cabinet and took out the tiny onsie that she had made for their dead child from her bag. Long Sijue gazed at the small baby blue s.h.i.+rt. The look in his eyes darkened with sorrow.

Su Qianxun carefully took out two ultrasound images of the fetus and said, “Let's go.”

In the darkest corner of Jin Garden's backyard, there was a greenhouse. When Su Qianxun stepped in, she simply could not believe her eyes. The enormous shed only contained one type of flower—the lily of the valley.
