Chapter 171 -172: Blood Man_1

Qiao Dalang’s face changed with a “huh,” “What do you mean I forced you? As if you were so noble. You were so happy calling out when we slept together day after day, and now you have the nerve to say I forced you!”

Xia Bing looked at him coldly, “What now? You want to disassociate yourself? Well, let me tell you, Xia Bing is no pushover. If you dare abandon me, I dare drag you down with me!”

When Qiao Dalang heard Xia Bing’s harsh words, his heart skipped a beat, and he replied awkwardly, “I’m just anxious, you know? Why don’t you just marry over as planned? I heard Tofu Zhang is a simpleton; he might not even notice. Later, you can just say it’s his child!”

Xia Bing slapped him, “No matter how foolish he may be, he can still count months! I’m only getting married next month, and by then the child will be born at least two months early. How do you explain that?”

The more Xia Bing thought, the more desperate she became, sitting on a rock, sobbing. Such a good marriage arrangement, now turned into this mess. Now, forget about marrying into Tofu Zhang’s family, even preserving her own reputation was questionable!

Qiao Dalang, watching Xia Bing like this, felt a turmoil in his heart too. What was to be done with this child? If it really caused trouble, wouldn’t he be finished? Although Xia Bing wasn’t married to Tofu Zhang, the betrothal gifts had been given; she was his fiancée. Impregnating someone else’s fiancée, that’s practically being an adulterer! If that accusation came down on him, how could he bear it?!

It couldn’t happen! He absolutely couldn’t let this incident ruin him!

As Qiao Dalang thought it, an evil notion surfaced in his mind. He composed his dark emotions before softly comforting Xia Bing, “Bing’er, don’t worry. I, Qiao Dalang, am a true man after all. Since this issue is because of me, I won’t ignore it. If things really get exposed, even if I have to marry you, I won’t let you suffer at all!”

These words deeply moved Xia Bing as she lifted her tearful eyes, “Really?”

Qiao Dalang nodded affirmatively, “It’s true!”

Xia Bing threw herself into Qiao Dalang’s arms, weeping. Qiao Dalang comforted her for a while and then said, “Bing’er, it’s getting late. You should head back and rest early. It’s not good for the child, is it?”

Xia Bing’s heart melted. She was indeed touched by Qiao Dalang’s change of attitude.

As Qiao Dalang walked with Xia Bing in his arms, he said many pleasant things that lightened her heavy heart.

Finally, when they reached a rather steep hillside, a dangerous gleam appeared in Qiao Dalang’s eyes. Xia Bing was momentarily stunned and, before she could react, was pushed down the hillside with great force.

The hillside wasn’t very deep; an average person falling down would at most suffer broken bones. But for someone with a child inside —

“Ah!” Xia Bing’s piercing scream echoed throughout the valley. By the time she rolled to the bottom, her body was soaked with blood.

Qiao Dalang looked on with cold eyes, thinking to himself: Don’t blame me, this child, absolutely cannot be left alive.

He then walked away without looking back.

When Xia Family’s people finally found Xia Bing at the foot of the hill, she was barely clinging to life. Mrs. Hu, seeing this, trembled with grief and wailed, “Which heartless bastard did this?! I’ll kill him!”

She then forcefully slapped the stunned Xia Dahai, “Don’t just stand there! Go find a doctor quickly, what are you waiting for?!”

Xia Dahai then snapped to his senses, “Ah, yes, yes!”

But a hand stained with blood clung tightly to Xia Dahai’s arm. Xia Bing struggled to say, “Can’t, can’t see the doctor.”

Mrs. Hu was startled, “Bing’er, what are you talking about? Why can’t we seek a doctor? Your injury is so severe——”

But Mrs. Hu suddenly realized a problem, “Bing’er, where are you hurt? How can there be so much blood?”

Xia Bing weakly responded, “Mother, I, I, I have lost my child.”

And then she passed out.

The Xia Family.

Xia Bing was still unconscious in bed, and Mrs. Hu wept bitterly beside her, “My poor child, what sin have you committed to deserve such a fate? What on earth is going on with this child?

Xia Dahai was irritated and scolded, “Can you stop making such a fuss, as if you are afraid others won’t know!”

It was then Mrs. Hu immediately stopped crying, indeed fearing that others might overhear, “We don’t even dare to visit the doctor to check on her condition. Don’t know if she will ever wake up.”

“Didn’t the second son go to the town’s medical hall to get medicine? Why worry unnecessarily! You’d better think about how to deal with Tofu Zhang instead.”

The Xia family, after this incident, did not dare to attract attention. They avoided taking Xia Bing to see a doctor, thinking they should at least get some medicine from the town’s pharmacy. The distance made it safer, for if they were to purchase from Doctor Chen in the village, their secret might be exposed.

Looking at her daughter with a heart full of disappointment, Mrs. Hu lamented, “Such a sin! Committing such a disgraceful act! Today we were lucky it was just our family that found out. If the people in the village came to know, it would cause a great uproar!”

Xia Dahai slapped his thigh and said coldly, “This won’t do. No matter whose bastard it is, we absolutely cannot let others find out about this matter. Now that the child is lost, it’s lost, but there’s still half a month before the wedding day. This marriage must not fall through no matter what!”

Mrs. Hu calmed down and thought about it. She indeed agreed, repeatedly saying, “Then we must keep this matter a secret!”

The Xia family highly valued the marriage with Tofu Zhang. Despite the trouble that Xia Bing had caused, they could not let go of such a wealthy son-in-law. Their only choice was to deceive others.

When Xia Bing eventually woke up, she was inevitably scolded by Mrs. Hu, who didn’t dare to lay a hand on her. After all, her daughter was now in a poor state of health, and any further harm might ruin the marriage.

Xia Bing’s heart was filled with hatred. When she was tumbling down the slope, in excruciating pain, she only saw Qiao Dalang’s cold gaze. Xia Bing almost ripped the quilt to shreds, Qiao Dalang, how could you be so heartless towards me? She had actually thought that he had changed for the better because of the child. How ridiculous!

Today her life was spared, and she would not let go of this marriage. She had given up so much just for this advantageous match; how could she give up now, at this time?

The half-month passed quickly, and the wedding day finally arrived. Muniang also received an invitation from the Xia family to join the wedding feast for Xia Bing.

Muniang was initially reluctant to go, but Mrs. Lin insisted, pointing out that the Xia family had given them a customary gift when they were constructing their new house. They were hence obligated to return the favor and couldn’t be so disrespectful. Muniang didn’t want to accuse Xia Bing to Mrs. Lin, so she had to agree.
