She turned back and found that the living room was still quiet; Diwu Zexuan hadn’t noticed that Rui Hui had already left.

Qin Youxuan gritted her teeth, picked up Tingye, and could only continue to play in the yard to cover for them.

...

"What’s wrong with you? You seem really nervous." Ye Mingmei looked at Rui Hui, who was constantly rubbing her palms, and asked in confusion.

"...A little." Rui Hui sniffed, her gaze falling on Ye Mingmei’s round belly, a hint of envy in her eyes.

In no time, Ye Mingmei was about to give birth.

"Does the baby give you trouble?"

"No, the baby is very good, only turning over at fixed times each day, just a little lazy bum." Ye Mingmei touched her belly, her entire demeanor softening when she spoke of her child.

During the time when there was no news of Yu Xiuzhun, it was the child in her belly that gave her the strength to keep going.

She hoped that one day he would come back and see their child with his own eyes.

"Diwu Zexuan is a Divine Doctor that others would beg to see. Why would you want to go somewhere else for a check-up?"

"I don’t trust him. He’s lied to me many times, always with such confidence."

Speaking of Diwu Zexuan, Rui Hui’s cheeks immediately puffed up.

As if if Diwu Zexuan were right in front of her, she would pounce and take two bites out of him.

Looking at Ye Mingmei’s six-month pregnant belly, she couldn’t help but reach out and touch it.

"I have no other thoughts now, just hope that the baby in my belly will be as healthy as yours."

"It definitely will." Ye Mingmei smiled gently.

The car arrived at the hospital, and with Ye Mingmei’s accompaniment, Rui Hui soon met the most renowned obstetrician in the hospital.

"Miss Rui Hui, I heard you’re also a doctor, so there’s no need to be nervous. It’s just a routine check-up and won’t harm the fetus. Relax."

"I’ll try." Rui Hui took a deep breath, calming her nerves, then released Ye Mingmei’s hand and followed the doctor into the examination room. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

The series of examinations was cumbersome.

The waiting time for the results was the hardest to endure.

Ye Mingmei had experienced this feeling before, so as soon as Rui Hui finished the check-up, she kept chatting with her so she wouldn’t have time to think about the results.

No one knows how long it took before the doctor returned to the office with the examination report in hand.

"Miss Rui Hui can have a look at it herself first."

The doctor placed the report in front of Rui Hui, his expression somewhat hesitant.

"The components in my blood are a bit strange..." Rui Hui looked at the report in her hand, her eyes narrowing.

This report was different from what she had seen at Diwu Zexuan’s place.

She could spot the problem at a glance!

"Yes, I tried several methods to confirm that the components are residues of a long-term contraceptive. This drug will be metabolized out of the body, but looking at the drug concentration in the blood, I fear this child came a bit too early, somewhat untimely."

"Do you mean, this child can’t be kept?" Rui Hui’s grip on the report tightened, her face turning pale in an instant.

Impossible! Diwu Zexuan said the child was fine, so how could he not be kept?

"You are aware that you’ve taken the drug; before the drug’s effect wears off, doctors generally suggest giving up on this child first."

"..."

Rui Hui forgot how she walked out of the hospital.

Her steps were so fast that the heavily pregnant Ye Mingmei couldn’t keep up, anxiously calling after her.

But it was as if she couldn’t hear anything, just mechanically moving forward.
