Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Lin Chaoyu’s face was filled with shame and anger as she spoke to him. Her eyes were filled with endless disappointment, as if she had been greatly wronged. Tang Pengze didn’t know what had happened to her. When he saw Lin Chaoyu’s reaction, he couldn’t help but find it hard to understand why she was so agitated.

“If you want to do it, go look for other women. I believe that with President Tang’s charm, all kinds of women will pounce on you!” Lin Chaoyu raised her head and looked at Tang Pengze stubbornly. Her tone became cold.

When Tang Pengze heard that Lin Chaoyu told him to find another woman but refused to do it with him, he couldn’t help but feel his heart ache. The man’s gaze was cold as he said, “Lin Chaoyu, what are you doing? Don’t forget your identity! What is artificial surrogacy? Do you need me to remind you?—When I want to do it, you have to listen to me no matter where I decide to do it. You have no right to refuse!” A cold voice came from Tang Pengze’s mouth.

When Lin Chaoyu heard this, she immediately sobered up. So she was just a surrogate in Tang Pengze’s eyes. She was actually still hoping for things that didn’t belong to her. She couldn’t help but feel sorrowful and a sense of self-mockery. She closed her eyes in resignation.

Tang Pengze looked at the woman’s pained and helpless expression. His thin lips were tightly shut, and his brows exuded coldness. The room instantly became as cold as ice. “Lin Chaoyu, you’re too big for your britches!” After saying that, Tang Pengze turned around coldly and left, leaving Lin Chaoyu standing there alone.

Looking at Tang Pengze’s back as he left, Lin Chaoyu squatted down. Her shoulders trembled slightly and tears flowed down uncontrollably. At this moment, the thunder outside the window was getting louder and louder, and the heavy rain was beating against the glass. After a long time, Lin Chaoyu stood up and wiped her tears. She slowly turned around and returned to the ward next door where her mother was.

Lin Chaoyu sat in her mother’s hospital ward. She didn’t want her mother to see through her sorrow, so she slowly regained her composure. Now that the transfer of hospitals had been delayed, she didn’t know what to do. Lin Chaoyu was lost in thought.

“Xiaoyu…” A weak voice came out of her mother’s mouth. When Lin Chaoyu heard this, she quickly pulled her hands. Li Hongzhu slowly woke up. When she opened her eyes and saw her daughter sitting in front of the hospital bed, she couldn’t help but feel sorrowful. In an instant, tears flowed from her eyes.

When Lin Chaoyu looked up and saw how sad her mother was, she hurriedly reached out her hand and wiped her mother’s tears with trembling fingers. “Mom, don’t cry. The doctor said you can’t be so emotional.”

Li Hongzhu reached out to hold Lin Chaoyu’s hand. Her wrinkled eyes were filled with tears as she asked in a sorrowful voice, “Xiaoyu, is what Lin Feifei said true? Tell Mom the truth.”

“Mom… don’t worry about it. I just want to cure your illness.” Lin Chaoyu couldn’t help but feel a little helpless in the face of her mother’s interrogation. Li Hongzhu saw Lin Chaoyu’s expression and understood everything. “Xiaoyu, listen to me. I’m not going to get treated anymore. I don’t want to ruin your life.” Li Hongzhu continued to speak with a pale face. “Xiaoyu, listen to me. Hurry up and break up with that person from the Tang family.”

Lin Chaoyu burst into tears. She didn’t know why her heart hurt so much. She didn’t know if it was because of her mother’s stubbornness and rejection or because she was about to leave Tang Pengze. “Mom, but your illness…”

“I would rather die than harm my own daughter like this.” Li Hongzhu cut off Lin Chaoyu’s words and looked at her with a determined gaze. Lin Chaoyu saw that her mother was forcing her to die. Her tears flowed down like pearls from a broken string. Her lips trembled as she promised, “Okay! Mom, I promise you… I will never interact with him again..”
