   🌳🌳Hospital, ward. The smell of disinfectant was nauseating. Lou Xingyin lay weakly on the hospital bed. The phone connected, and Lou Xingyin spoke first: "The abortion surgery form needs a family member's signature. Can you come to the hospital?" There was a half-second of silence on the other end of the line. Then the man's deep voice said: "When did you get pregnant? How come I didn't know? Lou Xingyin, you have to have a limit to your willfulness!" "Are you coming or not?" The man's word 'willful' immediately ignited Lou Xingyin's anger. "I really don't have time to argue with you today!" Facing Lou Xingyin's anger, Yan Feifan tried his best to suppress the impatience in his tone. Lou Xingyin's blood instantly turned cold. She stopped speaking and put the phone down. Just as she was about to hang up, a woman's voice came: "Family member, the cesarean section was successful. It's twins!" Lou Xingyin's world plunged into complete darkness. He was also in this hospital, but he was there with his sister-in-law who had given birth to twins. His own children were facing abortion.

    Reader note

    The male lead is truly insane and approaches the female lead with the intention of using her. In the very first chapter, he orchestrates her pregnancy. He's a master of forceful acquisition, first scheming to get her pregnant, then systematically pressuring her into marriage. They have a child, but their relationship is strained (because the female lead was forcibly taken). After marriage, he uses the child to pressure her into staying married. In short, the male lead is a truly awful person, genuinely insane and possessive. The female lead suffers greatly, as does the male lead later on. Therefore, the female lead develops a complex mix of love and hate for the male lead towards the end. The plot becomes extremely tragic towards the end (you can see the tragic parts in the synopsis). I recommend reading the author's postscript at the end, which analyzes the relationship between the male and female leads. The author's note is very sincere and touching.
