——————
When Lin Yingxia and Ding Wangzhong were still anxiously uncertain about what to do, who knew that Zhu Yilai would coincidentally come home on leave for a few days, providing Lin Yingxia with a ’legitimate’ reason for her pregnancy!
This finally allowed the two, who were facing this kind of situation for the first time, to breathe a sigh of relief.
It’s not that Lin Yingxia wanted to cuckold her husband, but she had no other choice.
Back then, in the countryside, there were simply no places to get an abortion, and if one had to resort to abortion, one could only engineer an accident!
Who knows what happened later, but she somehow found the ruthless heart to team up with outsiders, and indeed made her publicly-six-months, but actually-nine-months pregnant fetus ’prematurely born’!
Ding Wangzhong, knowing Lin Yingxia’s temperament and understanding, felt that it was more likely that his own child had been secretly sold!
Back then, indeed, many people bore children indiscriminately and, unable to support them, would sell them off! However, that was generally female infants; rural areas didn’t favor female infants.
Lin Yingxia’s situation was special at the time; she must have dared not let anyone know that she actually gave birth to a full-term child before selling it!
But she kept avoiding facing him; she didn’t even dare come out to clarify with him! It dragged on for over half a year like this!
Speaking of which, he indeed had to bear some of the responsibility, as he disappeared suddenly for over half a year. She was left alone at home, fraught with fear and anxiety, inevitably becoming frightened and imagining too much, brewing mishaps.
Initially, he was so eager to make money that he left in haste—
The reason was that he was following his relatives on long hauls to deliver goods, working joyfully and diligently outside to earn money to support the family. He was even thinking, once his son was born, he would let her divorce so he could formally marry her!
Unfortunately, when he finished and returned home, Lin Yingxia had already prematurely given birth and had briskly gone with the military!
Lin Yingxia feigned toughness and panic; tilting her head just then hit right on Ding Wangzhong’s emotional spot, he roared excitedly:
"Xiao Xia, stop messing around, where is the child? Don’t think that by making up a premature birth you can fool anyone. Who doesn’t know that you were almost due? And I am your man, how could I not know how many months along you were? Tell me, where is the child?"
Ding Wangzhong was a traditional man, and he was very much looking forward to the child in Lin Yingxia’s belly!
In the past, if it weren’t for his family being really poor, and having a scar on his face which made it hard to find a wife, he wouldn’t have secretly started a relationship with the lonely and distressed Lin Yingxia after marriage!
Moreover, the scar on his face was received years ago while protecting Lin Yingxia, making their relationship especially unique.
Upon knowing that Lin Yingxia felt lonely and distressed alone in her empty home, the two of them hooked up directly.
Previously, he said in front of the military that there was a relationship and financial dispute with Lin Yingxia, just to force her to confront him.
"You’re overthinking it, there is no child!" Lin Yingxia was equally furious inside, she wondered why this man relentlessly clung to her original life, it turns out this was the crux!
"Xiao Xia, what can I do for you to forgive me, I really didn’t want to leave you, I was going to make money, I already own a truck now, I can support you and the child, tell me, where is the child? We can take the child and go home!"
It was just a delay of slightly half a year than planned to return home, and when he returned, he heard that Lin Yingxia had prematurely given birth and followed the military — if Lin Yingxia was in front of him at that moment, he really felt like strangling her.
Ding Wangzhong looked at Lin Yingxia’s cold face, becoming even more puzzled in his heart; was it really a premature birth? But even if it was, where was the body of the child?
He had gone to dig up the mass graves, but found no infant corpses as the rumors suggested!
So, Lin Yingxia must have lied.
Lin Yingxia looked at him feigning surprise; after all, he had mentioned he now owned a truck, and that was not something ordinary people could have! The commerce industry hadn’t even developed yet, she wondered what this decadent man did before in order to procure a truck with money?
