Chapter 1: Chapter 1 Leave No Survivors
"Ah! It hurts, my stomach—so much pain!"
Jiang Xiaorou leaned against the wall with one hand while the other clutched her abruptly bulging belly. She slowly squatted down until she was sitting on the cold floor. The pain in her abdomen was as though she was being cut by knives.
Calculating the days, her due date was supposed to be these few days.
Hearing the noise, a servant ran over and saw Jiang Xiaorou sitting on the floor, her face pale as paper, clutching the clothes on her belly, looking very uncomfortable.
"Ms. Jiang, it seems you are about to give birth. Come, let me help you to the bed to lie down, and then I will call the doctor."
Jiang Xiaorou glared angrily at the servant and pushed her hand away, stubbornly sitting on the floor without the energy to even speak, but her anger did not lessen at all.
"If you don't bring your master here, I would rather die than give birth to this child."
The servant was in a difficult position.
"Ms. Jiang, please don't make it hard for me anymore, think about the child in your belly, it's a life after all, and it's about to be born. If something happens at this critical moment, wouldn't you be heartbroken?"
Jiang Xiaorou burst into mad laughter!
Child?
She didn't want to give birth at all!
Ten months ago, during a college reunion, Jiang Xiaorou drank some alcohol, and she was dizzy and irrational. By the time she woke up, she found herself locked in this villa, and that has been for ten months.
What surprised her most was that she inexplicably got pregnant, and as her belly grew bigger, she didn't even know who the father of the child was. Now their delusion to make her give birth, the only alternative was her death.
"Fine! If you don't bring your master here, I will die right in front of you today, and then see how you explain this."
Jiang Xiaorou had hidden a pair of scissors, and at this moment, she was pointing them at her own neck, the sharp tip could slice her throat at any moment.
"Ms. Jiang, why do you torture yourself? Once the child is born, you would be free, this…" The servant was truly in a difficult position.
"Hurry up and make the call! Are you really waiting to watch me perform a suicide, killing two lives with one death?" Jiang Xiaorou shouted like a madwoman.
The servant had no choice but to make a call.
Half an hour later.
A woman in high heels hurried in. Jiang Xiaorou bore the pain and stood up with the help of the wall. When she saw the woman's face, she almost wanted to gouge out her eyes.
"Jiang Yufei? Is it you?"
Jiang Yufei, Jiang Xiaorou's stepmother's daughter, a married woman who had entered a wealthy family, was quite glamorous. Unfortunately, she had not become pregnant in three years of marriage, and her days in her marital home were not easy.
Jiang Xiaorou never dreamed that the baby in her belly was made by Jiang Yufei's people.
"Are you not quick to get her onto the bed? If anything happens to the child, I will not spare you." Jiang Yufei screamed.
The servants and the doctor all gathered around, dragging Jiang Xiaorou into the bedroom and pressing her onto the bed.
"Jiang Yufei, you bastard, you will not die a good death, don't expect to use this child to secure your position in the Shen Family, I will never facilitate you."
Jiang Xiaorou did not cooperate at all, struggling wildly on the bed. Several people couldn't hold her down. She was a pregnant woman about to give birth, and with all this commotion, she feared the child might suffocate in her belly before being born.
"Useless creature."
Jiang Yufei grabbed a white coat and walked up, the syringe piercing directly into Jiang Xiaorou's arm, and after a few struggles, Jiang Xiaorou passed out.
"Come assist me—C-section." Jiang Yufei said.
Half an hour later, a pair of dragon-phoenix twins were taken out from Jiang Xiaorou's belly, the servant wrapped up the children and put them aside, carefully taking care of them.
Jiang Yufei finally breathed a sigh of relief. Ever since she orchestrated all of this, she had been on tenterhooks every day, fearing that something would go wrong at any step. Now, she was finally able to take out the pillow in her belly.
With these two children, her position as Young Mrs. Shen was secure. From now on, who would dare to say she's a hen that can't lay eggs?
"Madam, what about her?" The servant pointed to Jiang Xiaorou, who was lying on the bed.
It was indeed pitiful to look at, after carrying a baby for ten months and then suddenly having the baby become someone else's, not to mention she was left with only half a life. Jiang Yufei's unskilled cesarean operation had left Jiang Xiaorou's belly criss-crossed with scars, a truly pitiful sight.
"Find a way to deal with it, absolutely no survivors." Jiang Yufei said indifferently.
She absolutely couldn't let Jiang Xiaorou live; this secret had to die with her.
"But this..."
The servant couldn't bring themselves to do it, after all, it was a human life, and she had just given birth and was weak.
"What, you pity her?" Jiang Yufei's gaze sternly fell on the servant, sharp like a blade of cold light, making one shiver.
Naturally, the servant dared not defy Jiang Yufei's wishes and together they carried Jiang Xiaorou out, threw her in the trunk, and the car kept driving, kept driving, for several hours.
In the dead of night, it poured rain heavily.
The two servants dragged Jiang Xiaorou out of the car; the fresh blood on her was immediately washed away by the rain, flowing with the water into the soil, while thunder rumbled ominously in the sky, the wilderness was dark, not able to see one's own hand, only the car lights were on, causing a chilling feeling up one's spine.
Crack!
A sudden huge thunderclap resounded, scaring the servants stiff, their courage completely broken, and Jiang Xiaorou was heavily dropped onto the ground, the rain continuously washing over her body.
One of the servants took a fruit knife from the car, hands trembling. Murder was not something everyone could bear to do. After hesitating for a while, the servant passed the fruit knife to the other.
"Maybe you should do it! Go and give her a few stabs," said the servant.
The other servant was also terrified to death and dared not take the knife: "I can't do it, my daughter-in-law has just given birth too, I need to accumulate virtue for them, murder— I can't do it, you do it!"
The two pushed and shoved, neither able to proceed.
Boom! Crack! Boom boom!!
The thunder grew louder, lightning crackled, scaring the fruit knife out of the servants' hands, clattering to the ground. Both their faces turned pale, the ominous wilderness indeed frightening.
"Why not just leave her here and call it done! Look, there's no one around, she's just given birth and is weak, still bleeding, probably can't even crawl, she might not even survive," said the servant.
"How are we going to explain when we return?"
"Just say we've cleaned up."
"I agree."
Boom! Boom! Thunder rolled, as if trying to devour the two guilt-wracked servants, scaring them as they quickly scrambled into the car and drove off, not caring about anything else.
Unknown time passed!
In the pouring rain, Jiang Xiaorou's fingers began to move one by one, her mind gradually regaining some consciousness, slowly recalling what happened in the wash of the rain.
Her child? Jiang Yufei?
Jiang Xiaorou grabbed at her own abdomen, where the previously protruding belly was now extremely flat, the pain in her body still present.
What kind of godforsaken place was this?
All around was pitch black, even the blowing wind carried a sinister feel. Jiang Xiaorou shouted a few times, only birds flew by in the desolate place.
Jiang Xiaorou sneered, it seems Jiang Yufei didn't want her to return, wanted her to be left here to fend for herself? Since fate let her survive, she intended to live on well.
Jiang Xiaorou only now understood, everything was Jiang Yufei's scheme, she herself couldn't have children, and wanted a substitute to secure her position as Young Mrs. Shen, she really went to great lengths.
Wait! One day, Jiang Xiaorou would return to expose her true face, really see if her position as Young Mrs. Shen was still secure.
Enduring the pain in her abdomen, Jiang Xiaorou crawled forward bit by bit, each movement felt like her whole body was being torn apart, her path marked by trails of deep red blood, gradually diluted by the rain!
