Chapter 861: He’s Here, He’s Fine
It took Ye Shuyun almost half a day to find Lu Yi. By then, she too had the scare of her life.
“Lu Yi, how is Huanhuan?”
She came over hurriedly and pulled on Lu Yi’s sleeves while asking, “How is she? Is anything wrong?”
“Mom…” Lu Yi did not know what to say. He really did not know what to do.
“Yibin said that Huanhuan might…” He felt a tightness down his throat and a pain in his heart. “She might have a miscarriage.”
“Miscarriage?” Ye Shuyun eyes bulged as she looked at him. “Isn’t Huanhuan infertile? How can there be a miscarriage when she can’t even get pregnant? How can she have a miscarriage?”
“I don’t know…” Lu Yi shook his head. He did not know; he really did not know about it. That was what Yibin said. Huanhuan had been eating quite a lot lately and he thought that she was just getting a little chubbier, but just at the tummy. He felt that he had failed in his responsibility as her husband. He thought that Yan Huan was just getting plump. It had never crossed his mind that she could have been pregnant.
“But didn’t the doctors say that Huanhuan was infertile a few years ago?”
Ye Shuyun was very anxious. She hugged her son and started to cry.
What now? What to do now? What if something happens to her grandchild? What can she do?
Lu Yi let Ye Shuyun cry on her own as he could not even shed a tear. Yan Huan was actually pregnant when everyone thought that she could not conceive a child and now she was suddenly on the edge of a miscarriage. This could possibly be his and Yan Huan’s only chance,the only child that they would ever have.
The two of them waited outside anxiously and no one spoke. All they did was stare at the emergency ward, unsure of how the end result would turn out. Would it be a death sentence or a freedom from judgment?
Finally, the lights for the emergency ward turned off as He Yibin walked out and breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Yi stood up with his thin lips shaking. He did not know what to say or what to ask.
“Rest assured, everything’s fine.” He Yibin walked over and patted his shoulder heavily. “It was a close one, but we managed to keep the baby. She should be admitted into the hospital for now as there are still risks.”
“Thank you.” The heavy burden on Lu Yi’s heart was finally lifted after hearing what the doctor said.
He still could not understand how exactly Yan Huan had gotten pregnant.
He Yibin said that all statistics were just statistics and that there would always be exceptions. There were many cases like Yan Huan’s where many had been diagnosed as infertile but ended up conceiving a child.
It was really a close call this time. The child was alright at first, even if Yan Huan had not been aware of it because she did not have any symptoms. She had even thought that it was her bad mood that caused her menstruation to be delayed for more than a month. She never had the slightest idea that it was a possible pregnancy. She too thought that she was only becoming plumper, like Lu Yi had thought. She thought that the two and a half kilogram increase on her weight was because of her binge eating when in fact, it did not appear on her face, but only her waist.
It was already the next morning when Yan Huan finally regained consciousness. Her abdomen area was still uncomfortable with slight bloating pain.
“Am I having menstrual cramps?” she asked the nurse by the side. Even if it was menstrual cramps, it could not have been so painful that she would need an infusion. Could it be that she was getting abnormal? That’s no good, it was not easy for Lu Yi to pamper her to achieve the weight she had now, but now it would be all gone.
“Menstrual cramps?” The nurse blinked her eyes. “Miss Yan, you are not experiencing menstrual cramps, you nearly had a miscarriage.”
“Miscarriage?” Yan Huan paused for a moment as she placed her hands over her lower abdomen. She could feel a slight bump and discomfort which she had never experienced before. Her eyes got warmer as bean-sized tears started to shed. “But how could I possibly be pregnant? Aren’t I…”
“There are no absolute answers to everything.” He Yibin walked over and gave Yan Huan another checkup. Luckily, all readings seemed to be well.
“Don’t worry, your child is an obedient one and it is staying well in your stomach. You’re about two months in. I’ll let someone bring you over for a checkup at the gynecology department and you’ll be able to see your child then. Although it’s still just a little embryo, it’s already a small life form.”
Yan Huan lightly touched her red lips. She could feel a slight saltiness in her mouth.
“Aren’t I infertile? How did I conceive?” She placed her hands over her lower abdomen, it was not like she had never been pregnant, she had once carried a child for six months. However, she did not have any symptoms this time. She thought it was all her bad mood’s doing which had delayed her menstruation, but she was now being told that a woman who was infertile, a woman who the entire country knew as unable to conceive was actually pregnant. Was this a joke to her, or a joke to the entire country?
“Although statistics said you were unable to, it doesn’t mean it was impossible.” He Yibin smiled. “Maybe your body is recovering slowly. I heard from Lu Yi that Liang Chen said she was infertile as well due to her serious condition of a ‘cold uterus’. Look at her now, she has her own child now right?”
“Take it easy,” he comforted Yan Huan. “Don’t think too much for now. Have some rest, maintain good health and the baby will be fine as well.”
“Thank you.” Yan Huan tried to smile, but she only wanted to cry. Her mind felt fuzzy as she drowned in mixed feelings of joy and sorrow. When she woke up, the next thing she saw was Lu Yi sitting by her side with his thick brows frowning tightly.
“You’re awake.” He placed his hand over her forehead. Good, she has a normal temperature, no fever.
“Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”
Yan Huan shook her head and pulled his hand to put it over her face lightly.
“Do we really have a child now?” She was still uncertain. She needed Lu Yi’s acknowledgment and also his affirmation.
“Yeah, we do.” Lu Yi placed his hand over her lower abdomen carefully. As expected, it was not as flat as it used to be. They had both thought that she was getting plump, even Yan Huan thought so herself, but it turned out to be a baby, instead of just weight.
“Then, is he alright?” Yan Huan held tight onto Lu Yi’s fingers and asked carefully. She was afraid that she could not protect this little one. It was all her fault, she had not even known that he was there and she had mistreated herself like so. If he was gone because of her negligence, she would not be able to let go of the matter for her entire life. This could be the only child she would ever have in her present life and also Lu Yi’s only child.
She could not bear accidents of this sort to happen.
“Don’t worry, he’s fine.” Lu Yi sat closer toward her and put both her hands into the blanket. “Get some rest. If there is anything that you want to eat, I’ll get them for you in a while. We can go home when you’re stable.”
Yan Huan closed her eyes, still putting his large palm against her face.
“I want dumplings, shrimp dumplings.”
“Sure, I’ll get them for you.” Lu Yi patted her shoulders lightly, letting her get more sleep. He then went out to get the shrimp dumplings as fast as he could.
