Chapter 592: 592, there’s a lump in my heart
By the time Shi Yuhuan untied Song Qinghuan, she had already passed out.
Zhan Jie, however, was fully conscious, her lips tightly pursed up to the point of breaking, as she felt like she had been thrown into an ice pit.
If there were a mirror, she would have seen how ghastly pale her face had become.
The picture in her mind began to clear, and it just kept getting clearer!
There were some things she didn’t want to admit, but they became completely understandable.
She understood why Shi Yuhuan suddenly approached her.
Understood why he suddenly stopped resisting her, and even treated her so gently.
Understood why he gifted her an expensive house.
She also understood why he took her to the hotel couple of days ago.
What Bai Rubing had said, whether it was true or false, made more sense to her now.
The last memory she had was when she saw Shi Yuhuan undo the ropes around Song Qinghuan and evacuate her quickly.
Her bomb timer read ‘0’, just as Shi Yuhuan’s subordinates pulled her towards the exit, a second away from detonation.
Just a second difference.
The bomb exploded. The blast wave threw her onto the ground with a dull thud before she lost consciousness.
At that moment, she knew her injuries were severe.
She felt she was on the verge of death, but she didn’t wish to die. She was filled with hatred for Shi Yuhuan and Song Qinghuan and wasn’t ready to leave like this.

Song Qinghuan’s eyes stared blankly at the white ceiling, shocked to find herself still alive. She thought she was dead.
“Huanhuan, you’re finally awake,” Shi Yuhuan’s voice resonated next to her ear.
Looking off to the side, she found a haggard Shi Yuhuan, his eyes bloodshot, not having slept for several days.
Her abduction and captivity, everything flashed through her mind in succession.
She felt nothing but resentment for Shi Yuhuan, blaming him for everything.
Back then, her and her child’s lives hung in the balance, while he was solely concerned about Zhan Jie.
She could never forget Shi Yuhuan’s cold and ruthless words, “All they want is Zhan Jie. You can do whatever you want to the others.”
“Where is my baby?” Song Qinghuan’s voice was hoarse, barely audible.
Reading her lips, Shi Yuhuan gently reassured her, “The baby’s fine, perfectly fine, nothing happened.”
When Shi Yuhuan found out that Song Qinghuan was pregnant, his face was etched in shock.
He wanted to scold her, for keeping such a big secret from him.
Picturing himself as a father made him feel strange, with an indescribable mix of joy and sorrow, like it was all just a dream.
He stood outside the hospital room for a long time before finally entering. Song Qinghuan was still unconscious. He suddenly understood why she didn’t want him to touch her for some time.
He finally understood the Valentine’s Day gift she was planning to give him.
A sudden realization hit Shi Yuhuan – it felt like the air had been knocked out of him.
Petting her gently, he whispered apologies into her ear, “I’m sorry, I was careless. I shouldn’t have left you alone. I’m sorry, I’m sorry…”
Hearing that her child was safe, Song Qinghuan tilted her head and closed her eyes, refusing to look at Shi Yuhuan.
