Jiang Baihe only felt like a hammer had brutally struck her head. In an instant, her head buzzed, the world seemed to spin, and there was even a faint pain coming from her stomach.
With a "crack", Jiang Baihe’s hand was too weak to hold onto the dish. The plate slipped from her hand, falling to the ground with a crisp sound.
Over here, when Chai Jian Country heard his mother’s words, he only felt it was utterly ridiculous.
Bai He was so sincere to him; how could he do such a despicable thing?
As for the matter of children, Chai Jian Country wasn’t that concerned. Comparatively, he cared more about Jiang Baihe.
It was Bai He who wanted to have children, so that’s why he wanted them too.
If the child wasn’t his and Bai He’s, he would rather not have one.
He’s not some old-fashioned person who insists on having children to continue the family line.
He thinks that in life, having a sincere lover, to cherish each other and support each other, is more important.
And the words of his mother made him feel even more disheartened.
His mother always considered things from her own perspective, never from his, never understanding his thoughts.
Perhaps, to his mother, Chai Xiaojuan was more important than her own son.
She also listened more to Chai Xiaojuan.
Maybe he shouldn’t have let his mother stay in the military district, disrupting the relationship and harmony between him and Bai He.
Just as he was about to say something, suddenly, he heard a "crack" from behind. Turning around, he saw Jiang Baihe, who was originally in the kitchen, standing not far away, and she might have heard their conversation.
And at this moment, Jiang Baihe was in a very wrong state.
She was clutching her abdomen, bent over, her face full of pain.
"Baihe, Baihe, what’s wrong with you?" Chai Jian Country went over to support Jiang Baihe.
"Jian Country, I, my stomach hurts."
"Stomach hurts? Don’t be afraid, I’ll take you to the hospital."
Carrying Jiang Baihe horizontally, Chai Jian Country was about to head to the hospital. Before leaving, remembering Bai He might have overheard their conversation just now, he turned his head back and said to Old Mrs. Chai with a stern face: "Mom, those things you just said, I’ll just take it as nonsense. Don’t say it again. I, Chai Jian Country, will only have Bai He in my life and will only have children with Bai He. If Bai He can’t have children, then I’d rather not have any in my entire life."
"Since you love children so much, go back home and help my little brother take care of his kids."
These words were basically sending Old Mrs. Chai back to her hometown.
On hearing this, Old Mrs. Chai nearly died of rage.
Looking at Jiang Baihe in his arms, she only felt that she was a seductress who had bewitched her son.
"Jiang Baihe, you’re a seductress, definitely the one leading my son astray."
"Jian Country, don’t be fooled by her. What stomach pain? She might just be pretending."
"Why go to the hospital? Hospitals cost money."
Saying this, she tried to pull Chai Jian Country back to prevent him from taking Jiang Baihe to the hospital.
At this time, the people on this floor of the apartment building heard the commotion and came out to see.
They criticized Old Mrs. Chai’s behavior, expressing disapproval.
"What’s wrong with this Old Mrs. Chai? Bai He’s face is so pale, she’s obviously unwell, and she still stops people from going to the hospital. She can’t possibly want Bai He to die."
"Who knows what evil intentions she has; one look at her and you know she’s not a good person."
"Mom, let go, I need to take Bai He to the hospital." Chai Jian Country was being desperately held by Old Mrs. Chai.
Not to mention, this old lady was quite strong. If Chai Jian Country could free a hand, he could surely pry her hand off.
But now, both his hands were holding Jiang Baihe, so he couldn’t free them.
Fortunately, a neighbor who was friendly with Jiang Baihe, feeling indignant, stepped forward and directly pried Old Mrs. Chai’s hand away.
"What’s wrong with you, old lady, can’t you see Bai He is in pain?"
"You’re not allowing Mr. Chai to send Bai He to the hospital, what are you thinking? Do you want to see Bai He die? Your heart is too cruel."
"Mr. Chai, hurry, take Bai He to the hospital."
"Ah ah, my hand, my hand, Chai Jian Country, you heartless fool, charmed by a seductress, you don’t even care when your mother is being bullied..."
At this moment, Chai Jian Country truly had no time to tend to her. He carried Jiang Baihe straight to the hospital.
Behind him were Old Mrs. Chai’s curses, but Chai Jian Country didn’t care about them anymore.
When Chai Jian Country left with Jiang Baihe, the neighbor then released Old Mrs. Chai’s hand.
Hmph, her family butchered pigs, though she looked small, she was strong; dealing with an old witch was simple enough.
Over here, Old Mrs. Chai was finally freed, feeling her wrist hurt terribly.
Watching the retreating figure of Chai Jian Country carrying Jiang Baihe, she gritted her teeth and quickly followed.
"I have to see if that seductress is truly sick or faking it."
Old Mrs. Chai believed Jiang Baihe was pretending, just to gain her son’s sympathy.
Hmph, don’t think she couldn’t see through these little tricks.
She’s going to the hospital, to expose her in front of her son.
On this side, Chai Jian Country arrived at the hospital carrying Jiang Baihe quickly. Coincidentally, it was Doctor Hao on duty.
Doctor Hao checked Jiang Baihe’s pulse, and immediately frowned, coming to a conclusion, "She’s disturbed her pregnancy."
"In early pregnancy, emotional fluctuations must not be too great. Why didn’t you pay attention to this?"
"I’ll give her an IV to stabilize the pregnancy first."
Saying this, Doctor Hao also said to Jiang Baihe: "You too, don’t you know you’re pregnant and shouldn’t have big emotional ups and downs? Especially now in the early stages of pregnancy, one wrong move will disturb the fetus. Do you still want this child or not?"
After Doctor Hao said this, she noticed that Chai Jian Country and Jiang Baihe were both stunned.
She paused for a moment, then realized, asking in surprise: "No way, you two really didn’t know?"
At this moment, Chai Jian Country seemed to come to his senses, dumbfounded, asking Doctor Hao, "Doctor Hao, did you just say pregnancy and fetal movement, my, my wife is pregnant?"
"Yes, Doctor Hao, I’m pregnant?" Upon hearing she might be pregnant, Jiang Baihe even felt her stomach didn’t hurt as much.
Doctor Hao already figured it out that this pair of clueless parents didn’t know they were expecting a child.
While giving Jiang Baihe an IV, she said: "Yes, you are indeed pregnant. Congratulations, you should be more than a month along. Congratulations, you’re going to be parents."
Doctor Hao’s words provided Chai Jian Country and Jiang Baihe with a definite answer.
The couple looked at each other.
Chai Jian Country walked over, squatted down, and held Jiang Baihe’s hand, "Baihe, did you hear? You’re pregnant, we’re going to have a child and be parents."
Jiang Baihe dazedly nodded, "Yes, I heard, Jian Country, I really am pregnant, that’s great, that’s great!"
