Chapter 3386: This Is The Only Solution We Have

She had it all planned out. If she told Zhou Liangsheng right after finding out she was pregnant, it could be thought of as an accidental pregnancy rather than her scheme.

She had plenty of ways to soften his heart, even if Zhou Liangsheng wanted her to have an abortion.

As expected, she had made the right choice.

After finding out, Zhou Liangshen was somewhat shocked, but he didn’t mention abortion.

On the contrary, he wanted her to give birth to the baby.

This made Li Zhixiao very happy, and she had greater peace of mind.

However, she did not expect that Song Lihua would also get pregnant soon after.

So be it…

A few months passed by, and Song Lihua had a medical examination and found that she was pregnant with a son.

Li Zhixiao hurriedly had Zhou Liangsheng help her connect with an obstetrician to examine her child’s gender.

After finding out that she was also pregnant with a son, she let out a sigh of relief.

At least, she could still put up a fight against Song Lihua.

Unexpectedly, this was when her nightmare began.

News of this matter got out because Zhou Liangsheng used his connections to find the obstetrician.

The news reached Zhou Liangsheng’s parents.

At first, they were aware of Zhou Liangsheng’s lingering romance with Li Zhixiao, although they had already broken up.

They had simply taken on the stance of keeping one eye open and the other closed.

As long as Zhou Liangsheng was clear on what he was doing and maintained a good relationship with Song Lihua, it didn’t matter to them if he had a mistress.

After all, they were old now. They wouldn’t be able to bother about Zhou Liangsheng’s affairs when they were no longer around in the future.

However, they had not expected to hear about Zhou Liangsheng seeking out an obstetrician to examine Li Zhixiao and find out the child’s gender.

Zhou Liangsheng’s parents made sure to keep it a total secret from Song Lihua and then summoned Zhou Liangsheng.

Father Zhou made it clear that their family didn’t lack a son.

Since Song Lihua was already pregnant with a son who could take over the family business, they didn’t need Zhou Liangsheng to have another son outside.

Having an illegitimate son outside would make the Zhou Family unstable.

If Li Zhixiao could give birth to one child, it meant she could give birth to two or three more.

Giving birth to so many children… What was she intending to do?

It was fine for Zhou Liangsheng to have a mistress.

However, the mistress was absolutely not allowed to have his children.

The Zhou Family had no intention of handing over their family business to Li Zhixiao’s child.

Right from the start, they were against Li Zhixiao marrying into the family. They would never agree to it even in the future.

It wasn’t as if Song Lihua was unable to give birth to a child.

So, why would they want Li Zhixiao’s child?

Simultaneously, Father Zhou even told Zhou Liangsheng to quickly make Li Zhixiao get an abortion.

Song Lihua was already pregnant with a son.

As an incentive, Father Zhou gifted them a building.

However, if Li Zhixiao gave birth to the son…

The building would be in the name of Song Lihua’s son, and Zhou Liangsheng would get nothing.

At present, Zhou Liangsheng didn’t have total power over the company.

Father Zhou even added that if Li Zhixiao gave birth to her son, he would immediately amend his will.

He would have Song Lihua’s son succeed the Zhou Family, bypassing Zhou Liangsheng.

In Father Zhou’s opinion, Zhou Liangsheng was a dumbass.

Li Zhixiao could easily influence and lead him by the nose.

Fortunately, there was one aspect of Zhou Liangsheng that wasn’t too bad. He loved money and could not give up his current lifestyle.

So, as long as Father Zhou used these things to threaten Zhou Liangsheng, the latter would choose to sacrifice Li Zhixiao without a second thought.

Back when Zhou Liangsheng got married to Song Lihua, Father Zhou used the family business to threaten him.

Zhou Liangsheng was then able to choose Song Lihua without any hesitation.

However, he did so with the intention of finding a chance to divorce Song Lihua in the future and marry Li Zhixiao.

Father Zhou found it really difficult to understand. Just what exactly was it about Li Zhixiao that made Zhou Liangsheng unable to forget about her?

In terms of appearance, Li Zhixiao wasn’t as beautiful as Song Lihua.

In terms of temperament, character, poise, erudition, and experience, there was no aspect in which Li Zhixiao was as good as Song Lihua.

Yet, she was able to keep a steady hold on Zhou Liangsheng.

Simultaneously, Father Zhou muttered that this Song Lihua was useless. To think that she couldn’t even tie down her husband.

Now, Father Zhou proceeded with using the family business to threaten Zhou Liangsheng.

Having been under his father’s control for half his life, Zhou Liangsheng wanted that power for himself.

How could he possibly watch the family business fall straight into the hands of his son?

Wouldn’t he just be letting himself become the subject of ridicule?

Consequently, Zhou Liangsheng did not fail to meet Father Zhou’s expectations and decided to sacrifice Li Zhixiao for the family business.

However, Li Zhixiao was already some months into her pregnancy, so she could only go into induced labor.

This was an extremely cruel method of abortion.

The child in Li Zhixiao’s womb had already taken on a distinct shape, which meant they were killing a fetus.

Additionally, Li Zhixiao was faced with the extremely high possibility that she could become infertile after this.

She pleaded with Zhou Liangsheng sorrowfully that he should not do this.

Zhou Liangsheng analyzed the pros and cons with her.

He said that once he inherited the family business, he would immediately get a divorce and marry her. He would definitely make it up to her.

Moreover, the risk of going infertile was just a chance. It wasn’t a definite thing.

Wasn’t it also said that having many miscarriages would affect a woman’s fertility?

Yet, weren’t there many women who were still fertile after such a thing?

Zhou Liangsheng promised that he would definitely find an excellent hospital and an excellent doctor to handle her case.

With that, Li Zhixiao could only agree to the abortion.

The hospital Zhou Liangsheng initially sought out was Chu Tian.

However, Chu Tian refused to do it.

This was because aborting a fetus at such a stage in the pregnancy would be too cruel.

They refused to do this kind of surgery.

Consequently, Zhou Liangsheng could only find other doctors at other hospitals to do it.

Ultimately, Li Zhixiao still had to face the most painful result.

Her child died, and she would never be able to give birth to another.

Even while she was grieving for her child, Li Zhixiao worried if there was even still the possibility that Zhou Liangsheng would marry her in the future since she was now infertile.

She was no longer able to get pregnant, so what was the point of marrying her?

Song Lihua had a child, so Li Zhixiao didn’t need to give birth to a child…?

But why should the Zhou Family’s company be given to Song Lihua’s child?!

In the future, Song Lihua’s child would take over the Zhou Family. What would be left for her then?

Li Zhixiao was in extremely great pain, and Zhou Liangsheng blamed himself for it.

He had promised her that everything would be fine.

Yet, in the end, Li Zhixiao would never have the chance to be a mother.

Li Zhixiao found this Great Master Lu from god-knows-where and had him contain her son’s soul.

Great Master Lu charged her an extremely high fee for this kind of atrocity.

Nevertheless, Li Zhixiao had garnered quite a lot of money from Zhou Liangsheng after having been with him all these years.

So, she could still afford it.

After her son’s soul was contained by Great Master Lu, Li Zhixiao went to find Zhou Liangsheng.

She told him that there was now a way to bring their son back.

So, she mentioned Great Master Lu.

She said that he could send their son’s soul into the body of Song Lihua’s son; their son would possess the latter.

Although the appearance would change, the soul would still be their son’s.

Moreover, her son had only just formed into a fetus before she went into induced labor.

This meant his features had yet to develop, so he definitely wouldn’t look the same as Song Lihua’s son.

However, Great Master Lu said that after the soul in the body was changed to her son’s soul, the appearance of Song Lihua’s son would be influenced by the soul of Li Zhixiao’s son.

Gradually, the body would look more and more like Li Zhixiao’s son.

In that case, the child would totally be her son.

Zhou Liangsheng said, “Xiaoxiao will never be able to give birth to a child in the future, so this was our only solution.”
