Taken aback, Si Zhengting asked quickly, âWhatâs wrong?â
Zhuang Nainaiâs eyes widened as she pointed at her bump agitatedly. âThe baby, the baby, the baby...â
Her state of panic made Si Zhengting apprehensive. Hence, he ordered the chauffeur without hesitation, âHead to the hospital!â
âNo, no, no!â Upon hearing what heâd said, Zhuang Nainai waved her hands in a hurry.
Frowning, Si Zhengting was very antsy. âWhatâs wrong? Is there something wrong with the baby?â
Zhuang Nainai nodded. Then, she shook her head. Just when Si Zhengting felt like his heart was about to jump out, she looked at Si Zhengting. âThe baby moved!â
Si Zhengting: â...!â
So, she is so agitated because this is the first time she felt the baby move?
However, her words also evoked a strong impulse in Si Zhengting. He immediately reached out to touch her bump with utmost care.
When his warm hand made contact with Zhuang Nainaiâs bump, he realized how soft it was. He became nervous and tried his best to not exert so much pressure on her as he took his time to feel the baby.
But, this baby... was not moving?
Si Zhengting glanced at Zhuang Nainai, then he glanced at her again. At that moment, Zhuang Nainai broke into an awkward smile. âThe baby is not moving anymore.â
This baby was totally not saving its dad any face!
When Zhuang Nainai finished speaking, she immediately pointed at her bump and said, âLittle rascal, you are too unfilial! Why did you stop moving when your dad laid his hand?â
Si Zhengting: â...â
Throughout the journey home, Zhuang Nainai was giving this little rascal, who was not even born yet, a stern scolding. Upon reaching the Si residence, Si Zhengting helped Zhuang Nainai out of the car.
While they were eating dinner, Si Zhengting asked nervously, âDid the baby move?â
Zhuang Nainai shook her head.
After dinner, while they were watching television, Si Zhengting asked, âDid the baby move?â
Zhuang Nainai shook her head again.
Just when they were about to sleep at night, Si Zhengting asked again, âDid the baby move?â
Zhuang Nainai shook her head again.
Zhuang Nainai had tolerated all these instances!
But what the f*ck. Whoâd have known that this man would suddenly barge into the bedroom from the study room in the wee hours to wake her up, before proceeding to ask her again while she was still half-asleep, âDid the baby move?â
Zhuang Nainai had tolerated him over and over again. However, she could not take it anymore. âWhy arenât you asleep at this time?â
Upon seeing her grumpy face, he realized that he seemed to have done something wrong. Hence, he cleared his throat. âIâm worried about the baby.â
At the thought of everything that happened in her early stage of pregnancy â from the design drafts incident to Mother Zhuangâs disappearance, to having miscarriage symptoms â it was normal for Si Zhengting to be so worried about the baby.
When Zhuang Nainai heard this, she looked down at her bump and said, âI donât think thereâs anything wrong!â
After Si Zhengting rudely woke her up, Zhuang Nainai could not fall back asleep. Hence, she sat up and looked down at her bump. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. Right, since the baby has started to move, why hasnât it moved for the past few hours?
Both of them were overthinking and scaring each other. After looking at each other for a few seconds, Si Zhengting suddenly stood up. âIâll call the family doctor.â
Although Zhuang Nainai thought that they were just making a big fuss over nothing, she was truly scared at the moment, so she nodded.
