Chapter 1 : Triplets from One Pregnancy
Pain!
Her whole body felt like it had been split open, causing her to tremble uncontrollably.
Jian Xi looked at the man lying unconscious beneath her, tears of infinite shame streaming down her face.
This was her newlywed husband, Li Bo Ting. A year ago, he had become a vegetable after a car accident.
In order to pay for her mother's medical expenses of one hundred thousand yuan, she had agreed to marry him in place of her half-sister from a different mother. The Li family had threatened and forced her to do such despicable acts. If she couldn't conceive his child tonight, she didn't know how many more times she would have to endure such humiliation...
"Pain--"
Intense contractions woke Jian Xi from her faint.
After enduring hours of labor pains, she was completely exhausted. In her unconscious state, she dreamt of the night she had spent with Li Bo Ting on their wedding night.
"Push, the baby's head is about to come out!"
The midwife's shouts rang in her ears as Jian Xi desperately shook her head, tears streaming from her eyes.
Li Bo Ting had already woken up. The fact that she had been forced into this marriage no longer mattered. Her half-sister had openly moved into the Li family, and she and the children were no longer a concern for him. She didn't want to bring them into this world, but she couldn't bring herself to do it.
The endless pain dismantled every bone in her body. Instinctively, she grabbed onto the bed rails with all her remaining strength.
The cry of a newborn baby filled the air, and a woman's voice came from the doorway, "What a pity, why didn't she die in her womb!"
Jian Shan Shan, with her fake pregnant belly, stormed towards the delivery bed, slapping Jian Xi's cheek with a resounding smack.
With a loud thud, Jian Xi's brain buzzed.
Jian Shan Shan grabbed her collar and roared, "You slut! I told you to marry him, not sleep with him! You're just a country bumpkin, what right do you have to bear his child!"
"Smack--"
Another earth-shattering slap landed on Jian Xi's cheek, and Jian Shan Shan went mad, screaming, "You slut! Today, I'll send you to meet your mother and let you two reunite in the underworld!"
"What happened to my mother?"
After Li Bo Ting woke up, Jian Shan Shan instigated the Li family to lock Jian Xi up, cutting off all contact with her mother. She had no idea about her mother's deteriorating condition. Trembling hands grabbed onto Jian Shan Shan's wrist.
Jian Shan Shan yanked her away, gritting her teeth as she lifted Jian Xi's upper body, "My mother wished for your mother's death so much. How could she allow my father to pay for your mother's medical expenses? Your mother passed away half a year ago, and her ashes were poured down the drain by my mother, you fool!"
As she spoke, she grabbed Jian Xi's hair and viciously slammed her head onto the bed.
The midwife anxiously shouted, "Enough, calm down! She still has two more babies inside her!"
"Who cares about raising her children? I don't even plan on letting this one live."
Jian Shan Shan didn't stop, continuing to pull Jian Xi's hair and repeatedly smashing her head onto the bed.
If it weren't for the Li family discovering Jian Xi's pregnancy first and insisting on keeping the children, she wouldn't have needed to put on this act for Li Bo Ting.
She would also have given birth to a child. Who gave Jian Xi the right to raise her children? She truly hated her.
Jian Xi, who had just given birth, had no strength to resist. Her head continued to be struck, and she fainted once again.
Jian Shan Shan forcefully pushed her away, "Hurry up and get her out of here. If she stays here, where will I lie down? I warn you, I will make her pay with her life, and if any of you dare to play tricks, I'll have the Li family kill you!"
The medical staff in the room trembled in fear and had no choice but to lift the unconscious Jian Xi onto a mobile bed...
"Boom--"
Thunder rumbled outside the hospital, frightening the two young nurses who were preparing to take Jian Xi to the morgue.
"We're doing something morally wrong. Are you afraid of retribution?"
"I am. Otherwise, why don't we leave her in the small woods behind the hospital? If she survives, it's her good fortune. If she dies, it's not our fault."
"Alright!"
The two nurses quickly made a decision and hurriedly pushed Jian Xi away...
When Jian Xi woke up again, her body was being torn apart by intense contractions.
The pouring rain had already soaked her through, and she was lying in a muddy patch of grass.
Instinctively, she grabbed onto the long grass beside her and exerted all her strength against the pouring rain. In the end, she gave birth to a boy and a girl all by herself.
