"Give me back my child!" The woman's lower body was soaked with blood, and she weakly fell off the operating table, trying to crawl forward. The man looked down at her from above, his expression grim, his words like a poisonous arrow: "This child is a bastard, the bastard you had with Gu Moqian! I absolutely won't let him live!" His eyes held an icy coldness. Suddenly, he raised his hand and slammed the newborn down onto the ground. "No!" Ji Wei's eyes widened as she desperately crawled forward to grab the child, but she was still a step too late. She watched helplessly as the child she'd just given birth to was mercilessly tossed onto the ground. The tiny face went deathly pale, crimson blood trickled gradually from the corner of the mouth, and behind the head, blood pooled and flowed like a river... Ji Wei used all her strength to lunge forward, her hands tightly cradling the baby, letting out a heart-rending shriek: "My child... my baby!" She turned her gaze violently to the man, her eyes burning with fiery rage: "Ji Chuyang, you beast! He's your biological son! How could you do this? How could you!" "Biological son?" Ji Chuyang sneered. "That night when you spent the whole evening with Gu Moqian, what did you think you were doing? Do you think I don't know? You dare to act so righteous after putting a green hat on me? You filthy woman!" Ji Chuyang's expression turned savage, and he raised his hand to slap her across the face. "All of this is just your delusion! That night, you know exactly what I begged Gu Moqian for! I begged him to extend the deadline so you could finalize that critical investment deal—" "Enough!" Ji Chuyang cut her off sharply: "Ji Wei, do you know what I hate most about you? Your clever, scheming nature—pretending to be the perfect granddaughter-in-law before my grandfather, winning the sympathy of everyone in the Ji Family. Even within the Ji Family corporation, you're highly regarded, and me—I'm nothing but a useless foil beside you! You don't love me, yet you feign loyalty, helping the Ji Family through every crisis. It makes me sick! Don't think I don't know, you secretly consulted a lawyer about divorce! You dream of leaving me—don't even think about it!" Ji Wei suddenly laughed, a laugh filled with despair and bitterness. "Oh, right. There's one more thing I forgot to tell you. Back then, it was your beloved little cousin who drugged you and sent you into my bed. And it just so happened that night your fiancé Gu Moqian walked in on the scene. The expression on the face of Rongcheng's number one young master was truly priceless!" "Ji Chuyang, you're nothing but a monstrous beast! You killed my child—I'll fight you to the end!" Ji Wei let out a gut-wrenching roar, using every ounce of strength to stand up, reaching out her hands to strangle the man's neck. "Get away from me!" Her frail body couldn't stand firm, and he kicked her away harshly. Ji Wei fell backwards to the ground, her head striking the operating table heavily, and instantly, blood gushed out like a torrent. Blood dripped down her thighs, pooling into a vast puddle... The once-proud daughter of Rongcheng's wealthiest family, Ji Wei, met a gruesome death on the day she gave birth. —— My head... so dizzy, so heavy... Ji Wei painfully opened her eyes and saw the glittering crystal chandelier on the ceiling, stunned for a moment. Her mind was still flooded with the searing hate she felt in her dying moments... No, this isn't right. She had clearly already died. Ji Wei struggled to prop herself up and sat on the bed, scanning her surroundings, finding herself in a room that unmistakably resembled a Presidential Suite. Her eyes widened in shock, confirming again and again. No doubt about it! This was Room 2202 at the Di Hao Hotel—the place where her nightmare began! Ji Wei's pupils constricted abruptly. Today was her twentieth birthday. On this very night, she'd been drugged, ended up in bed with the spoiled heir Ji Chuyang, and even got photographed by the media. The next day, rumors of her infidelity spread like wildfire, completely destroying her reputation as Rongcheng's premier socialite. She'd turned into a woman despised for her promiscuity, and Gu Moqian's mother filed a letter of annulment the very next day out of fury! In the entire city of Rongcheng, no one else would dare marry her except Ji Chuyang. Yet, she had been foolishly deceived by Ji Chuyang's hypocritical courtship, entrusting her entire future to a man worse than a beast. Bits and pieces of her past played out again in her mind, and Ji Wei clenched her fists tightly. Since she had been reborn, she would never make the same mistakes again in this life! Gradually calming down, Ji Wei noticed the sound of water flowing in the bathroom. If she remembered correctly, the man showering in the bathroom right now was Ji Chuyang. At the same time, she felt a scorching heat surging through her body—it was clear the drug Ji Shanshan had slipped was beginning to take effect. Her situation was already dire, and the door was locked. What to do? How could she escape? Ji Wei tensed up all over, pacing anxiously. Soon, her attention fell on the landline phone by the bedside. She walked over, grabbed the receiver, hesitated for a few seconds, then quickly dialed a string of numbers. "Beep... beep..." Searᴄh the nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The waiting tone made her increasingly uneasy, as she wasn't sure if the person on the other end would answer. Just as she was about to hang up in disappointment, a voice from the receiver responded with the one she desperately hoped to hear: "Hello?" A man's voice, magnetic and tinged with coolness. For reasons unknown, hearing this voice again caused Ji Wei's nose to sting sharply. She suppressed the wave of emotions building within her: "Gu Moqian, it's Ji Wei..." Crash— The bathroom door suddenly flew open. Ji Wei turned her head and saw Ji Chuyang emerge, his lower body wrapped only in a towel. "Room 2202, save me!" There wasn't any time left. Ji Wei frantically spat out the few words into the receiver before slamming the phone down.
