The heartless beauty is addicted to being licked by a seemingly obedient and loyal dog.

Looking at the border post that was faintly visible a few kilometers away, Song Yunqi gritted her teeth unwillingly, took a deep breath, and opened her chapped lips to prepare to shout for help.

There's no way to escape now, so we have to take a gamble; maybe the sentry will notice what's going on here.

"save--"

The first syllable had barely escaped his throat when a rough, large hand suddenly reached out from behind him, carrying a heavy smell of gunpowder and sweat, and tightly covered the lower half of his face.

A strong feeling of suffocation and a fishy smell rushed into his nasal cavity, and all his voices were blocked back into his stomach.

The mercenary moved with practiced skill and ferocity, seizing Song Yunqi's hands behind his back and pressing his upper body to the ground.

"Hmm!"

The excruciating pain of his abdomen folding in mid-air caused the young man's eyes to become bloodshot. He desperately tried to kick the other man, but his strength was almost completely depleted by hunger and high fever, making his resistance seem insignificant.

Lu Jinci stood to the side, looking down at the young man struggling in the mud.

"take away."

A black blindfold fell down, blocking all vision.

Song Yunxi was lifted up by two people, one in front and one behind, and stuffed into the back of a pickup truck like cargo.

The wheels rolled over the uneven mountain road, and the bumpy ride made my stomach churn.

He huddled in the corner of the carriage, his two hands, which were tied behind his back, twisting and turning incessantly, trying to protect his slightly protruding lower abdomen, but he could only futilely rub against the metal panel.

After an unknown amount of time, the car came to a stop.

When the blindfold was removed, the bright light made Song Yunqi uncomfortable, so she closed her eyes.

He returned to the original small room.

"Clatter".

Lu Jinci slammed the pistol on the table, walked step by step to the bedside, and frowned slightly as he looked at the young man who was covered in dirt and smelled of grass, wood, and mud.

The other person's face was abnormally red, their lips were dry and cracked with blood, and they were curled up on the bed, their thin shoulders rising and falling with their breathing.

Lu Jinci reached out and pinched his chin, lifting his face up, his fingertips feeling a burning heat.

"She has a fever."

He frowned, released his grip, and turned to the person guarding the door, instructing, "Go get the fever reducer and anti-inflammatory medicine, and pour me a glass of water."

Not long after, his subordinate came in carrying a box of fever-reducing medicine without any packaging or label and some hot water.

Lu Jinci took out two white pills, pinched them between his fingertips, and brought them to Song Yunqi's lips.

"Take your medicine, and I'll give you a bath later. You've been out and about these past few days, you're all dirty and smelly..."

Song Yunqi weakly opened her eyes, her gaze falling on the two white pills.

In tropical parks with extremely poor medical conditions, the so-called "miracle drugs" are often potent medications with unknown ingredients, containing extremely high levels of antibiotics and hormones.

Pregnant women cannot take medication casually, as it could potentially lead to birth defects. Moreover, his previous heavy smoking and drinking had already damaged his health, making him even more vulnerable to further complications.

If these two pills are swallowed, the baby in the womb is in grave danger.

Song Yunqi turned her head away, her jaw clenched, her dry lips pressed into a straight line.

"I won't eat..."

Lu Jinci's patience had long since run out over the past few days. He grabbed the young man's chin without hesitation, his knuckles turning white.

"Song Yunqi, don't give me that crap."

"Do you think you still have a choice? You're refusing to take your medicine even when you have a fever, just to go against me."

The water glass was brought to the young man's lips, but he clenched his teeth, his eyes filled with determination and resistance.

"Swallow it!"

Lu Jinci lost all patience, forcefully pried open his jaw with his large hand, stuffed the two white pills deep into his mouth, and then poured water down his throat.

Water entered the trachea, causing a violent cough.

"vomit……"

Tears welled up in Song Yunqi's eyes, but just before she could swallow the water, her throat spasmed, and she vomited the water and medicine all over Lu Jinci's chest.

The pills, stained with saliva and water, slid down his clothes and fell to the ground, instantly getting covered in dust.

"Cough...cough cough!"

Song Yunqi was breathing heavily, and she curled up and fell back to the edge of the bed.

Even though his mind was already somewhat hazy from the high fever, his right hand still instinctively clasped around his lower abdomen.

Lu Jinci looked down at the water stains on his body, then looked at Song Yunqi, who was tightly protecting her belly on the bed, his eyes dark and unreadable.

If it was just a matter of not wanting to cooperate, the other party's reaction just now was far too intense.

That resistance didn't seem like fear, but rather like vigilance and dread.

In addition, during his escape these past few days, whether on surveillance footage or just now when he was pinned down in the mountains, his first reaction was always to bend his body and use his arms and knees to defend against external attacks.

His breathing became slightly shallow.

Instead of forcibly administering the medicine, he bent down, pulled away Song Yunqi's hand that was blocking his abdomen, picked him up, and strode towards the door.

"Let me go..."

Song Yunqi struggled weakly in his arms, but she was no match for the man's strength.

"Shut up."

Lu Jinci's face was terribly gloomy, and he coldly ordered his subordinates, "Go to the hospital."

A dozen minutes later.

Inside a single-story clinic with a simple cross sign hanging on it, located within the park.

The large hospital was quite far from here, and Lu Jinci only wanted to verify his guess, so he first had a simple check-up at the small clinic where he treated the piglets.

The strong smell of disinfectant and medicine mingled together, the old ultrasound machine emitted a low buzzing sound, and the cool coupling gel was applied to Song Yunqi's somewhat thin lower abdomen.

Song Yunqi lay on the examination table, her hands gripping the edge of the sheets tightly, her fingernails almost digging into the rough fabric.

The doctor slid the probe across his abdomen, staring at the small screen in front of him with static-like dots. After a moment, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes. He exchanged a few words with his assistant in the local language, then turned to look at Lu Jinci, who was exuding an aura of oppression.

"Mr. Lu... he's not sick."

The doctor's Chinese was heavily accented and somewhat stiff: "A gestational sac was found in the uterus, and there was a fetal heartbeat."

"More than two months, about nine weeks."

The air in the room froze completely in that instant.

The old electric fan creaked and groaned as it whirred, offering no relief from the heat.

Lu Jinci did not respond.

He seemed not to understand the doctor's words, his brows furrowed tightly, his eyes filled with absurdity and disbelief.

More than two months.

The treasure I didn't get to eat has not only ripened but also borne fruit.

For a long while, he didn't make a sound, stiff as a statue.

The harsh sunlight outside shone through the dirty glass of the window and fell on Song Yunqi's thin body.

He closed his eyes, his blood gradually turned cold, and despair spread through his heart.

The secret you most want to hide will eventually be exposed in the most inappropriate place and in the most embarrassing way.

"Oh……"

A low, hoarse laugh suddenly rang out in the consultation room.

Lu Jinci slowly raised his head, his shocked expression gradually disappearing, replaced by an almost manic, sinister look.

One step, two steps.

He walked slowly to the inspection table with heavy steps, looking down at Song Yunqi, who was huddled on it.

"I see……"

Lu Jinci's voice was very soft, but it carried a chilling aura, and every word seemed to be ground and spat out from between his teeth.

"I was wondering why you seemed to be acting so strangely."

"They'd rather get soaked in the rain, go hungry, and freeze than not leave me..."

Lu Jinci reached out, his cool knuckles caressing the other's burning cheek, slowly moving down his neck, finally stopping at his flat, smooth lower abdomen.

Pressing hard on it with my fingertips caused a cry of pain.

"So you had it in your pocket, Song Yunxi."

Cruel hatred and tyranny clashed and intertwined within the man's chest.

Seeing the undisguised fear in Song Yunxi's eyes, he raised the corners of his mouth, turned around, and coldly looked at the trembling doctor beside him.

"Remove it."

Two simple words, without the slightest hesitation.

The old doctor was stunned for a moment.

"Mr. Lu, his physical condition is very special, and he is weak due to a high fever. Performing an abortion now may pose a risk of severe bleeding..."

"I told you to take it off!!!"

Lu Jinci roared angrily and kicked over the iron medicine shelf next to him, shattering bottles and jars on the ground with a piercing crack.

"Did you hear me?! Get this disgusting thing out of his stomach!"

The doctor trembled with fear and dared not say another word. He immediately signaled his assistant to prepare the surgical instruments and labor-inducing drugs.

Song Yunqi's pupils suddenly contracted on the examination table.

All the composure, rationality, and pride he had maintained in the past crumbled completely at this moment.

"No...no!"

He struggled to sit up, yanked the needle out of his arm, and blood gushed out, splattering all over the floor.

Ignoring the excruciating pain and dizziness, he tried to climb down using both his hands and feet.

"Lu Jinci! You dare touch it! I will definitely kill you!"

The voice became shrill due to its hoarseness, carrying a desperate wail.

"Take your hands off me! Don't touch me! I won't do it!"

Two nurses tried to go up and hold him down, but Song Yunqi, in a state of stress, pushed them away with all her might.

His eyes were bloodshot, like a female beast driven to the brink of despair, attacking anyone who came near him like a madman.

"You better behave yourself!"

Lu Jinci stepped forward, grabbed Song Yunqi's shoulder, and forcibly pressed him back onto the examination table.

"No! Lu Jinci, let me go!!"

Song Yunqi twisted her body violently, tears streaming down her face, mingling with the dirt on her skin.

"Don't touch it, I won't run anymore... I'll never run again... I'll be good..."

"You want me, don't you? I'll agree to anything if you just let it go..."

The once arrogant and haughty young man now stood before the cold operating table, clutching Lu Jinci's sleeve, and uttered a nearly broken plea for mercy.

Seeing him bowing his head and begging for mercy for the sake of the child, Lu Jinci's jealousy and resentment only intensified.

"It's too late, Yunqi."

He coldly pried Song Yunqi's hand away, then turned and roared at the stunned doctor beside him:

"What are you all standing there for?! Do it!"
