Chapter 1170
Liu Zhizhong woke up completely and smiled.
It seems that my mother-in-law can't bear to part with her good son-in-law. As soon as she gets to Singapore and gets settled, she's calling already?
He immediately turned over from the bed and answered the phone on speaker.
Who would have thought that as soon as he shouted "Mrs. Lu," a cry of "Zhizhong" followed by sounds of sobbing came from the other side.
Liu Zhizhong was bewildered on the spot and gently said, "Mrs. Lu, what's the matter? Are you crying tears of joy? Haha..."
"Zhizhong, the child is gone, the child is gone..."
Lu Yumei cried out in utter heartbreak.
A loud bang went off in Liu Zhizhong's head, numbing his entire body.
"What? What? Mrs. Lu, what are you saying? What happened to Zhao Han?"
Lu Yumei sobbed as she recounted the situation, leaving Liu Zhizhong feeling as cold as ice.
He never imagined that the child in Zhao Han's womb was really gone.
In fact, they had spoken in the morning, and at that time, everyone was on their way to the airport and were quite happy!
Back then, Lu Yumei was driving, taking Zhao Han to the Provincial City to catch a direct flight to Singapore from the international airport there.
The call with Liu Zhizhong was made while they were on the highway.
At the time, they encouraged Liu Zhizhong to work hard in the country, believing one could achieve something even in the poorest counties.
Zhao Han assured Liu Zhizhong that she would take good care of the pregnancy, and they would return to see him after the baby was a month old.
Shortly after the call ended, Lu Yumei's car entered the Provincial City limits.
But it was at this moment that an unimaginable car accident occurred.
Lu Yumei was driving a Big Lao RV. She had told Liu Zhizhong over the phone that she would park the car at the airport's parking lot, and he could retrieve it when he had time.
However, the car in front, a small sedan, suddenly slammed on the brakes in the fast lane, and Lu Yumei swerved to the right, moving into the slow lane.
There were quite a few heavy trucks on the slow lane, the truck ahead was moving slowly, and a truck behind unexpectedly lost control and rear-ended Lu Yumei's car.
Upon being hit, Lu Yumei was a bit panicked and couldn't control the car, crashing straight into the back of the truck ahead.
Before she could react, the truck that hit her from behind also overturned, with its front section hitting the median barrier and the rear sweeping across the Big Lao RV, flipping it over entirely, spinning it twice before coming to a stop.
Following this, more vehicles, both trucks, buses, and family cars, were involved in emergency braking, rear-end collisions, and rollovers, a large-scale accident scene.
The rollover was severe, with Lu Yumei passing out on the spot, not to mention Zhao Han, who was five months pregnant.
When Lu Yumei woke up, she was already lying in the Provincial City Hospital.
However, she wasn't in much danger, just suffered a concussion with bruises from the airbag deployment but no fractures, only some external injuries.
The Big Lao RV's safety collision system was, after all, quite solid. The car was deformed, which was true, almost considered totaled.
But as for Zhao Han, if she weren't pregnant, it wouldn't have been a major issue. But unfortunately, being just over five months pregnant complicated matters significantly.
The rescue surgery went on from noon until dusk, they transfused 12,000 milliliters of blood, but ultimately there was no way to save the child; the mother, however, survived.
Zhao Han is still lying in the ICU now, sigh...
Lu Yumei, after waking up, immediately went to the operating room to wait, and it wasn't until Zhao Han was moved into the ICU that she remembered to call Liu Zhizhong.
