Disgusted

Chapter 27

"And he did make a suggestion." Saori said, looking into Aozora's eyes as if to test the temperature of the water. "He is willing to use a personal guarantee to lend a sum of money to a bank he is familiar with, so that the company can solve the problem of insufficient funds first; as for the mortgaged land deeds and machines, he can inject capital as a new shareholder. With his help, plus parents , my sister-in-law and I should be able to survive this crisis.”

"What's the condition?" Aozora narrowed his eyes and quietly took a sip of the cold coffee.

"The condition is." Saori looked at the blue sky, her expression did not change, she just hesitated, and after a while, something in her eyes shook, and she clasped her fingers again. "The condition is that he wants me to bear him a child."

"Give birth to a child." Aozora blinked and murmured as if to confirm the meaning of the words.

Saori nodded slowly, and stretched out her hand tentatively to cover Qingkong's hand, which was warm and soft.Qing Kong imagined the scene of holding a child with these hands, his heart seemed to be frozen and unable to feel any emotions.

"I don't need to have physical contact with him." Saori shook Aozora's hand gently as if about to shake something. "Nowadays, the test-tube baby technology is quite mature. If he goes to Beijing, Hong Kong, or the United States, all he wants is blood."

"So you can accept this condition?" Qing Kong withdrew his hand.

"It's just, it's bearable." Saori said quietly, looking at her empty hands for a while.

"Endure? What about me? Do you want me to endure the flesh and blood of another person in your womb, from which a part is separated emotionally and physically, and will always be inseparable from the ex-husband? Conceived in October, born, nurtured , Upbringing, from crying out the first cry to being able to sit and crawl to babbling, you want me to stay by your side and endure to see you pay for him? Is this what you said you didn’t say goodbye to me?” Qing Kong’s voice It was cold and waveless, like a cold front blowing from Siberia, and then gradually became rough, cutting the yarn with pain, and the last sentence seemed to echo endlessly in the living room.

"I told him, give him the child." Saori said quietly.

"Yes. You parted with this piece of flesh and blood, and then there was a hole in your heart that no matter what I said or did, it couldn't be filled, because this became the sacrifice I forced you to make..."

"Then what do you want me to do!" Saori shouted in a low voice, raised her red eyes, and her teeth left a row of marks on her lower lip. "Tell me! What else can I do?"

"Give it up." Qing Kong said without hesitation when meeting Kami Saori's eyes. "The one who is in debt is your elder brother. You and your family are neither aware nor guarantors. His debt is not a family debt, and there is no obligation to repay it for him. As for the mortgaged real estate, it is not your brother's private property, but belongs to the legal person of the company. , owned by various shareholders, counting, it’s just your brother’s unauthorized embezzlement, which is an economic crime. Taking another step back, the company is a limited company, and liquidation and bankruptcy will not affect your family’s personal property. Let go of it and wait for an opportunity to make a comeback. "

Saori shook her head, looking at Qingkong as if meeting a stranger again. "Not to mention the painstaking efforts of my parents all my life. My nephew has just turned three years old, and my sister-in-law is still five months pregnant. What about my brother? What about the more than 480 employees in the company? Do you want me to give up all of these? ?” She shook her head again. "I can not do it."

"Why?" Aozora frowned inexplicably. "This is your brother's decision. Why should you, your family, and us be responsible for his mistakes? Whether it's a company or an employee, it's just a means of making a living. There are failures and successes. Why can't you let go?"

"In the past, why didn't I know you were such a heartless person?" Saori lowered her head and smiled slightly. "No, I actually know."

For a moment, the two fell into a deep silence.The living room without sound is like a copper box gradually sinking into the deep sea, filled with a suffocating sense of hopelessness.Aozora felt his heart throbbing in his chest with tingling pain, the wall clock made an annoying sound, everything was wrong, like a shirt button was wrongly buttoned, and there was a feeling that something was tilted.

"I grew up under that shade. Food, clothing, use, consumption, etiquette cultivation, and part of my form you see now all come from this family and this business." Saori said lightly. "It's one thing to give up if you have no choice but to do your best, but it's another thing for you to let me give up when there is a turning point."

"Saori. Do you regret it?" Aozora asked suddenly.

"regret?"

"I regret staying with me. If I hadn't been close, or if I had only maintained the relationship with my bed partner, it wouldn't be so embarrassing now. After all, under normal circumstances, your ex-husband's request is reasonable."

"I'm afraid it's still the same." Saori thought for a while, drawing circles on the dining table with her fingers, and after a while, a faint smile that seemed to be satisfied appeared on her face. "Again, I'm afraid I'm still greedy. So, it doesn't matter and I won't regret it later."

Aozora nodded, and took a deep breath as if facing a crumbling wooden bridge on a cliff that he had to cross. "I'm afraid he knows."

"Him?" Saori was stunned for a moment, her eyes flashed with confusion, doubt, fear, and thoughtfulness. "Yes. I'm afraid he knows."

The author has something to say: I feel that staying up late like this is really not good, and I want to adjust my work and rest, so I changed the writing and updating time to morning...or noon...if I can't get up...

Forgive me~
