C13 Falling Cover No
Seeing that I was struggling and resisting, Uncle raised his hand and slapped me across the face.
Judging from his strength, it really was as though he didn't care about the relationships between relatives at all. As soon as his palm landed on my face, my head buzzed as if it had exploded, followed by dizziness. Through the mirror by the door, I saw myself looking as miserable as a ghost.
When the people outside saw that no one opened the door for a long time, they also gave up pressing the doorbell. Uncle leaned against the door and listened to the footsteps gradually fade away, revealing a smile of satisfaction.
My heart sank to the bottom, and my uncle's smile became a nightmare that haunted me for many days when I came back from my midnight dream.
I was dragged into the bedroom by my cousin and uncle and pushed so hard by the two men that I fell to the floor.
My back hit the corner of the bed as I fell, and my face crumpled in pain.
"Bitch, if it wasn't for you having the surname Zhou, I really want to beat you to death."
My uncle's words chilled me, for I knew he was not threatening me, and I was sure he was telling the truth.
In this situation, there was nothing else I could do other than accept my fate. I wrapped my arms around myself and curled up into a ball.
He only had one thought in his mind: I want to protect my stomach.
After my mother died, the only people I was related to were the few men in this house today who wanted to kill me.
No, they are not my kin. They are just demons.
While protecting my stomach, I whispered, "Baby, you have to be strong. You are my mother's only family in this world."
Uncle and Cousin kicked and punched me mercilessly, and their mouths were filled with obscene obscenities.
My consciousness became increasingly blurred, and just as I was about to collapse, the arms that were clutching my stomach were about to be pulled away.
The door to the room opened from the outside and a group of people walked in. Both Uncle and Cousin were stunned for a moment.
I opened my eyes as wide as I could and saw the familiar face.
The tears that she had been holding in for so long started to spread across her face.
"Ou Jia Rui, save me!"
The man called "Xuan Zi" pushed his uncle and cousin aside, and even gave them a fierce kick.
"How are you?"
I don't know if it was my imagination, but there was a tremble in Ou Jia Rui's voice that couldn't be hidden.
Grandfather was still arrogantly swearing, saying that this was their own family matter, and telling these unrelated people to get out.
Du Lin, who had been standing in the corner watching, stepped out of the crowd of people that O'Jia Rui had brought with her. She quickly took out her cell phone to take a few pictures of the scene and my injuries.
"Mr. Zhou, you have already caused intentional injury. I can sue you on behalf of Ms. Zhou at any time." Du Lin was still as cold as ice.
Realizing that I was safe, I closed my eyes.
Vaguely hearing Ou Jia Rui say something, "Xuan Zi, you and counsel Du take care of them. If they dare to leave this room, immediately call the police." She picked me up and hurried off.
When he opened his eyes again, there was a scene of pure white that made his heart race.
I felt pain all over my body, and I managed to turn my head and see O'Jia Rui sitting next to the bed.
"Water." I opened my mouth and only uttered a single syllable. The dryness in my throat immediately drowned out my voice. O'Jia Rui stood up, poured a cup of water, inserted the straw into my mouth, and placed it next to my mouth.
After drinking a large mouthful of water, I remembered something extremely important.
"Where are my children?" That's my biggest concern at the moment.
"The child is still alive. The doctor said that he was well protected by you, but you were injured yourself and he is still healthy and in your stomach." Ou Jia Rui's tone was so gentle that it seemed as if she was comforting a frightened little child.
A moment later, the doctor and nurse arrived.
After asking a few questions and explaining a lot of things that I should pay attention to, the young nurse started to help me carry the water.
The young nurse seemed to have never seen such a miserable pregnant woman.
"Don't worry, I'm just giving you some energy replenishing potions. I won't hurt the baby. I wonder who is so cruel to you. If your family knows about it, they will definitely feel heartache."
Family members, I don't even have family members anymore. It was those people who called me family members that caused me to become like this.
I closed my eyes and pretended to be tired, but tears rolled down the corners of my eyes and soaked my pillow.
The nurse left quickly.
There was only me and O'Jia Rui left in the huge ward.
After a long while, it was Ou Jia Rui who broke the silence. "What do you plan to do with your family members? I've kept the evidence for you and can sue them at any time. It'll be enough for them to live in prison for a few years."
Although there had been a lot of harsh words in the room at the time, when the opportunity really presented itself, my damned sensibility once again prevailed in my mind.
"Forget it, I just don't want to see them again." "No," I said.
"Alright, I'll keep the evidence for you. If you want to sue them, you can contact Duren anytime." Ou Jia Rui thought for a while, then added, "You rest for today. I'll be leaving first, I'll come see you tomorrow."
After Ou Jia Rui left, the ward became completely silent.
The whole day had been a mess. To be exact, my life had been a complete mess ever since I met Ojairi and Ou Jingyi.
After calming down, I started to think about many things.
Grandfather and the others would never take the initiative to care about me, so why would they suddenly know that my fiance was pregnant?
Even if Lin Qian's parents told me, why do they know so much about my situation in Demonic City?
I know who the person who wants to end my life and the child in my womb is the most. I never thought that Lin Qian and Ou Jingyi would be this crazy. An indescribable fear spread throughout my heart.
I understood that the only thing I could do to protect my child was to stay away from these people, Lin Qian, Ou Jingyi, and even Ojairi.
The gentle care of Ou Jia Rui during the day and the sudden appearance of an emergency appeared before his eyes.
This man, although he had known me for less than a month, he had saved me many times like an omnipotent god.
Those so-called relatives who raised me were doing their best to push me into the abyss.
It is often said that "the toppling of the head is like the old, the white head is like the new".
I was sure that my grandfather and the others were the ones I had spent twenty years with before finally getting completely hurt.
Then what about Ou Jia Rui, is it that I have overshadowed her?
He was the one who saved me from danger, but he was also the one who messed up my peaceful life.
