Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 311 Telling Zhu Qian the truth.　　While Yu Dong was being comforted by her husbands, Lang was on her way to go and comfort her husband as well. She didn't know what she was going to say to Zhu Qian but she had to tell her husband the truth, there was no other way around it. Lang took a breath and entered the living room where Zhu Qian and Lang Ruru were waiting for her, as soon as she pushed open the door and walked out of the hallway into the living room, Zhu Qian's head snapped up in her direction and he jumped to his feet.

" What is it? What happened? Our son, he is" alive, right? Was what Zhu Qian wanted to ask but couldn't get the words out of his mouth, he could only pause in the middle of his sentence and hope that his wife would refute him. 

" He is fine," said Lang as she hugged her husband who was looking like he was going to faint any second. She knew how hard it was for Zhu Qian to give birth to both of their kids, he was a malnourished mer when she married him and her family didn't exactly give him enough food either. Only she knew the pain that Zhu Qian had to go through before he could give birth to their daughter and after giving birth for the first time, the birth of their second child was even more difficult given that Zhu Qian wasn't allowed to have a  decent post confinement nourishment and was sent to the fields as soon as he was able to get off his bed. 

Zhu Qian heaved a sigh of relief but before he could relax completely, his gaze fell on his wife's solemn face and his relaxed muscles went taut at once. It was a good thing that his son was alive but looks like there were certain complications that couldn't be taken care of during his treatment. He clutched the front of his wife's front and started shaking her entire being, " What is it? What happened to my son?"

Lang knew that she couldn't hide the truth anymore, even if she did that, Zhu Qian would find out very soon. She sighed and clutched her husband's arms and solemnly looked at him. " Zhu Qian, you need to prepare yourself…alright? Remember what happened wasn't your fault, okay? Don't blame yourself or Hui Hui will hurt as well——"

" Stop saying this nonsense…my son…how is my son…I just want to know how is my son!" Zhu Qian was in no mood to listen to whatever Lang has to say, he peered over his wife's shoulders and would have rushed to the room where his son was resting, if not for his strength being on the weaker side compared to his wife. 

" Calm down, Qian'er!"

" I will not calm down! My son is lying in there all frail and weak, how can you even tell me to calm down?" Zhu Qian was furious. As a daddy, his wife was asking him not to blame himself? Asking him to calm down? How can he even do that? He was the one who carried his son in his womb for nine months and promised him that he will keep him safe… how can he calm down when his son was anything but alright.

Lang knew that no matter what she said right now, wouldn't get past Zhu Qian…so, she could only tighten her hold on his arms as she took a deep breath and gritted out those words that she wished even her enemy wouldn't have to tell to their spouse. " Our son is alive but his treatment was delayed——" she peeked at Zhu Qian's ashen face and felt her heartbreak slightly, she promised herself that she will never let Zhu Qian go through anything like he did when he was kicked out of her house together with her but here she was telling him these cruel words. 

She took a deep breath and blinked her tears away before she grounded out. " His lower body was crushed by something heavy and now he is a special case."

Zhu Qian understood what his wife meant by special case, his entire being swayed as he stared at his wife and then shook his head as he muttered, " No,… it is not possible…my son …my precious son…my poor son."

His voice went faint each time he spoke, and before anyone knew—— Zhu Qian almost fainted surprising Lang and Lang Ruru.

" Qian'er!"

" Daddy!"

Lang shook her husband by his shoulder and when Zhu Qian didn't respond, she turned to look at Lang Ru. " Go and bring me a cup of water, hurry!"

Lang Ru rushed to the kitchen and brought a cup of water and hurried over to her mother before handing the cup of cold water to her mother. Lang took the cup of water from Lang Ru and sprinkled it on Zhu Qian's face who shivered and mumbled something before slowly opening his eyes. He looked around and then his gaze fell on Lang's worried expression before he burst out sobbing —— this time his sobbing wasn't loud or frantic, it was silent and muffled.

He clutched the front of his wife's shirt and cried against her bosom, shoulders terribly shaking as his tears made the front of Lang's shirt terribly wet but not a sound could be heard from him. Lang hugged him, rocking him back and forward… she knew why Zhu Qian's cries weren't loud, their pain was beyond the range that could be expressed in voice or words —— even if they cried and shouted, Lang was certain that no matter how loud they were, their pain would never lessen. 

Lang Ru watched her parents and silently turned her head away as tears fell down her cheeks, she was breathless after crying for so long but no matter how painful it was she couldn't show it to her parents. They were the ones who were suffering the most, the blame and guilt they had pressing on their hearts were enough to kill them slowly for the rest of their life—— there was no need for her to add to their trouble, any way she was going to be sixteen…an adult soon.
