You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 407

Chapter 407 As Long As You Are Okay

“Thalassemia,” Gu Mingchen replied. “I’ve sent him overseas for his treatment, and the doctor said it’s best to do a stem cell transplantation. But none of our blood is compatible with his. Not mine, my parents, or even Xin.”

A gloomy expression clouded over Wu Nian’s face. “What about mine then? I’ve undergone a bone marrow transplantation before.”

“Yours isn’t compatible either,” he responded, staring intently at her.

Wu Nian’s mind went blank in that instant. She gaped in silence as the ocean breeze blew at her face.

Her life wasn’t short of miseries, to begin with. Despair and troubles far outnumbered her peaceful days.

Why does it have to be like this?

Could it be that I have committed far too many sins in my past life, and now the heavens have decided to let my child suffer the consequences in my stead?

An awkward look flickered across Gu Mingchen’s face. “The best bet to save Yanny is to have another child.”

Wu Nian looked up and fixed her eyes on his.

Her gaze was extremely calm and devoid of emotion.

Gu Mingchen scoffed. “Of course, there’s no pressure if you don’t intend to save him. Who knows? Maybe we’ll be able to find a compatible candidate in a few years’ time.”

“You know I’m almost infertile.”

“Don’t bother explaining anything to me,” he refuted sternly. “Whether or not to save our child, it’s your choice. He no longer has anything to do with you. You never wanted him from the beginning anyway.” At that, the man turned around and flung the door shut.

Thud!

Wu Nian stood in front of the door, paralyzed by a wave of pain that had sprung from her heart and swept through every single nerve.

All the while, she had been searching high and low for her child tirelessly. She had never once overlooked the slightest opportunities.

Her mind was drawn back to memories of that day. The moment she woke up from her comatose, her first thought was to make sure Gu Mingchen was safe. When she heard her son was still alive, she had immediately broken down in tears of relief.

No words could describe the torment she went through when she was put under heavy medication and wrestled with death.

She had yearned to see her child and take care of him more than how much she yearned to see Gu Mingchen. When she jumped into the ocean that day, it was because she had decided to not be a burden to the man any longer.

After all these ordeals, she was now a heartless mother in Gu Mingchen’s eyes.

Of course, she’s more than willing to help her child! It’s just…

With a deep breath, Wu Nian headed towards the door and knocked on it rapidly.

A few seconds passed in silence. Qing barked, and the door clicked open yet again.

Gu Mingchen looked down at her.

“I can’t guarantee if the next child can save Yanny, so it’s still better to continue searching for another candidate just in case,” she muttered plainly.

He understood what she meant. “Come in,” he replied coldly.

Wu Nian looked around her as she stepped into the house. Everything was arranged in place beautifully – nothing out of place.

“How did you come here?” she asked. “I didn’t see any other yachts around.”

“By flight.” His answer was concise. He sat on the couch and threw a glance at the other opposite him, signaling her to sit.

Wu Nian sat down obediently, still hugging Qing close to her body.

The man then spoke, “Let me know when you’re free to go for an examination. We should figure out when your next ovulation is.”

“I’m available all the time.”

Gu Mingchen eyed her with a distant look. “I’m only doing this for my son’s sake. There’s nothing between us worth mentioning. When the next child is born, it shall belong to me alone. Do you agree with that?”

Of all things Gu Mingchen could’ve said to her, he had called her a monster!

He said he regretted everything after meeting her…

Right! Nothing has ever been good since we got together.

She strived, she pushed, she struggled. Yet her efforts never bore the right fruits.

Even her own child hadn’t been spared from the suffering.

She had never been able to fulfill her duties as a mother throughout Yanny’s life. If her son ever left the world one day, she would gladly join him. Perhaps she could take better care of him by his side in the afterlife.

With trembling fingers, she fumbled around, tapping on several buttons. A warning beep from the screen sounded, and she suddenly realized that she had forgotten to wheel in the ladder amidst the panic.

Wu Nian quickly pressed on another button and wheeled the ladder in. The engine soon roared to life.

As the yacht sailed off, she took one last glance at the house in the distance.

Gu Mingchen didn’t come out to watch her leave. The house seemed dead and lifeless as though it was uninhabited. Just like how she no longer occupied his heart.

Wu Nian looked up towards the sky helplessly.

Was my fate already destined this way from the day I was born?

It felt as though everything in life had been foreplanned on her behalf, whether it was wealth, health, or happiness.

Why did her life have to be like this? Was it some form of punishment from the gods above? She never had any ill wills against anyone!

The woman crumbled onto the floor and shriveled in a corner, letting her tears fall recklessly onto the wooden panels.

Qing crouched beside her and whimpered.

She cuddled the puppy, her only companion, tightly against her chest as she sobbed. “Gu Mingchen, I wish you a happy future without me from now on. As long as you’re happy, I’m fine with it…”
