Exclusive dialogue with pregnant women who fell from a cliff in Thailand
"Still believe in love, I just got a little luck"
"Love has always existed beautifully, I just lack a little luck." Wang Qiang (pseudonym) said with a smile. It is hard to imagine that 17 months ago, she was pregnant and was pushed off a 34-meter cliff by her husband in Thailand. .
On June 9, 2019, Wang Qiang followed her husband Yu Moudong to watch the sunrise in Padang National Park, Ubon Ratchathani, Thailand, but he did not expect that this would be a "deadly journey".
A confident smile is always on Wang Qiang's face.
"Everything that can't kill me will make me stronger"
One day in November 2020, Nanjing was sunny in the afternoon. Accompanied by her sister, Wang Qiang showed up on time as agreed. Although she was inconvenient to move, she insisted on moving to her seat.
"Sorry for keeping you waiting, do you think I'm ugly now." Wang Qiang greeted politely while still joking with the reporter, with a confident smile on his face.
Turning the clock back to June 2019, Wang Qiang still remembered what happened before the cliff fell. "He rushed up from behind and hugged me. At that moment, I still felt that this action was very warm." But then she listened. When Yu Moudong said four words: Go and die.
Without even shouting for help, Wang Qiang has been pushed off the cliff by her husband.
Fortunately, she survived.
According to her memories, there happened to be a tree at a height of 10 meters above the ground, and this tree reduced her falling speed.
Thai police records show that she was in a coma for about an hour.
After waking up, Wang Qiang was very conscious and confirmed that the child was okay, but the severe physical pain made her unable to shout.
By coincidence, a lost tourist found her after passing under the cliff.
The park staff who were notified quickly organized an ambulance team.
After being sent to the local hospital, the doctor told Wang Qiang that she had a total of 17 fractures all over her body, of which 6 were open fractures. The most severely injured was the main bone of the left thigh, which had become S-shaped, with a complete crush in the middle. .
Wang Qiang said, “After the operation, the main bone of the left thigh was not connected. The CT scan showed that there was a steel plate in the middle, and there was no bone. The sequelae caused were long and short legs. The length of the two legs differed by two or three centimeters.”
Today's Wang Qiang is full of gratitude for everything that happened after falling from the cliff.
"If there is no tree on the cliff, and the lost tourist at the bottom of the cliff spotted me in time, if the child fell and caused a blood collapse... the result would be different." She said, "Anyone who can't kill me will let me Stronger."
Rescue the scene after the incident.
"I believe the child will come back if he has not gone far."
Wang Qian knew in his heart that if she had an accident at that time, Yu Moudong would complete a perfect "criminal plan."
"He should act as a tragic husband. During a play, his wife fell off the cliff, grief-stricken, and then inherited property and started a life of profligacy..." she said.
In March 2020, the first instance of the case was pronounced in Thailand. The court found that Yu Moudong was guilty of intentional homicide and was sentenced to life imprisonment with civil compensation of 5.2 million baht.
Yu Moudong appealed in court and is currently awaiting the verdict of the second instance.
Wang Qiang expressed satisfaction with the result of the first instance judgment.
As for the civil compensation, she also knew that the other party would not compensate.
She said, "Yu Moudong does not have any capacity for civil compensation, and his parents have made it clear that they will not pay a penny."
"Even if civil compensation cannot be obtained, I am still very satisfied, because this is an explanation." Since the second instance has not yet passed a verdict, Wang Qiang is still unable to sue for divorce. She hopes that the second instance will have a result as soon as possible so that she can "say goodbye to the past."
Wang Qiang recounted the past calmly, optimistic and strong always on the face of this Nanjing girl.
But when she talked about the child, her emotions immediately became agitated, "I really want to be a responsible mother and educate the child well, but it is a pity."
Due to multiple operations and exposure to a lot of irritating drugs, Wang Qiang finally chose to give up under the advice of the hospital and in a responsible attitude towards the child.
"My due date is December 5, 2019. If this hadn't happened, my baby would be one year old now, and he might already laugh and make trouble..." At this time, Wang Qiang could no longer speak calmly. , Choked, tears rolling in his eyes.
After a while, she smiled again, "I believe the child will come back if he hasn't gone far." Her eyes were extremely firm.
"The world kisses me with pain, I want to sing in return"
"Since God left me alive and let me survive, I should stand up and let the truth come to light and let everyone know about it." Now, Wang Qiang began to tell her experience on the short video platform. , "Nuan Nuan" became her new name.
Regarding this name, Wang Qiang has his own understanding.
"My name is two-way. I have received a lot of warmth and concern, so I feel that warmth can be transformed, and I hope I can also warm others."
Wang Qiang’s short video platform still retains the video before the incident, and Yu Moudong is also in the video.
She said frankly, “This is an objective fact. I only have to face it and face it so that I won’t cry alone on a dark night. I’m relieved, let go, and live optimistically.”
Wang Qiang and Yu Moudong had a flash marriage, which was also one of the points of dispute after the incident.
She believes that “it cannot be generalized. In fact, many flash marriages are very happy, but relatively speaking, the failure rate of flash marriages is relatively high.”
During the conversation, Wang Qiang mentioned a word many times: character.
"I think the only cornerstone in marriage is character. Before marriage, you must check whether your spouse is worthy of your life."
"The world kisses me with pain, and I want to repay it with a song." This is a saying that Wang Qiang often talks about now. "A true brave man still loves life after he recognizes the truth of life."
"There is no long-term future in the world, but some are just impermanence."
"At the moment of death, I knew that there is no such thing as a long life in the world, and some are just impermanence." Wang Qiang, who has experienced death once and opened his second life, hopes that he can live a good life.
She said, "I will cherish life, go home to accompany my parents more, chat and eat, take a walk with them, then gather with friends more, pick up my previous hobbies, and see the world."
Now, Wang Qiang is undergoing repeated rehabilitation training every day.
She also has her own understanding of post-rehabilitation and treatment. “The process must be very difficult, and I have expectations in my heart. I will definitely be disabled in the future, but it doesn’t matter. No matter the degree of recovery, it is a success for me.”
For the future, Wang Qiang is not very demanding. "Now I still have to rely on a wheelchair and crutches to go out. I hope to recover to be able to walk on my own. This is my biggest wish now."
"Love has always existed beautifully. I just lacked a little luck and didn't meet it. I hope everyone finds the right love for them." Although this relationship almost cost Wang Qiang's life, she still believes in love.
At the end of the interview, it was evening, and the setting sun shone on Wang Qiang's face, and time seemed to freeze at this moment.
In the future, she still has a long way to go.
