Sitting in the luxurious car to the hospital, Xia Xiaoluo felt nervous, so she clenched her fists tightly. She did not know why. She was just going to check the baby’s gender, but she was unexpectedly nervous with some cold sweat on her forehead.
Xiao Lan sat at the back seat with Xia Xiaoluo, wiping the sweat with the silk handkerchief for her. Sitting at the co-pilot seat, Ouyang Ziqian frowned and looked back. He wanted to say something to comfort Xia Xiaoluo. However, Xia Xiaoluo was still nervous even though he had told her what he wanted to say in the morning, so Ouyang Ziqian blamed himself for being too useless. What was more, he regretted telling her that they could check the baby’s gender.
Xia Xiaoluo was all right last night, but she had a nightmare at night. In the dream, there was a baby boy in her belly and the boy was unhappy because Xia Xiaoluo said in front of Ouyang Ziqian and Xiao Lan yesterday that she wanted a baby girl. This made the baby boy unhappy. He said that his mother disliked him, so he wanted to leave.
“Mom, you only like your daughter and dislike your son, so I don’t want to stay with you anymore. I don’t want you…” The cute baby boy finished and wanted to leave.
Xia Xiaoluo wanted to hold the lovely boy, but she woke up suddenly due to the severe pain in her belly.
Xia Xiaoluo was so scared that she couldn’t fall asleep after the nightmare. She was afraid that the baby boy would misunderstand her and think that his mother didn’t like him and left her belly. She had already had a miscarriage due to falling down the building. It was terrible, so she didn’t want to experience it again.
They arrived at the examination room quickly and Xia Xiaoluo was more nervous.
Ouyang Ziqian and Xiao Lan didn’t know Xia Xiaoluo’s nightmare, so they thought that Xia Xiaoluo was only afraid of going to the hospital. Xia Xiaoluo had been afraid of going to the hospital since she was a young girl. She finished all the examinations nervously.
The doctor talked a lot and Xia Xiaoluo didn’t understand at all, while Ouyang Ziqian and Xiao Lan kept smiling and nodding.
After talking with the doctor for a while, Ouyang Ziqian said to Xia Xiaoluo, “Xiaoluo, don’t worry! The doctor said that you are in good condition now and everything is fine.”
“Is it a boy or a girl?” Xia Xiaoluo took Ouyang Ziqian’s hands suddenly. She stared at Ouyang Ziqian straightly, seeming nervous.
“Well, it’s a pity that it isn’t a baby girl you wished. But the baby boy is also good. He can protect you when he grows up. Nobody will dare to offend his mom anymore! Isn’t that good?” Ouyang Ziqian said with relax.
“Wow!” Xia Xiaoluo burst into tears.
Ouyang Ziqian and Xiao Lan were both stunned. They knew that Xia Xiaoluo liked the baby girl but they thought that she just preferred the baby girl. Even it was a baby boy, she would be happy and delighted as well.
However, Xia Xiaoluo’s behavior made both of them very surprised.
“Xiaoluo, Xiaoluo, you little fool! What’s wrong with the baby boy? In the rural areas of our country, many people are eager to have a son! What’s more, like what Childe Ouyang said, when the boy grows up, he will become a man! Nobody dares to offend you when you have a son to rely on!” Xiao Lan took Xia Xiaoluo’s hands and kept comforting her.
Ouyang Ziqian also said softly, “Xiaoluo, even though boys are naughty, he is still your child. I know that it’s difficult for you to accept it now, but I believe that you will like him. Don’t worry. If he is naughty in the future, as his godfather, I will teach him a lesson instead of you.”
“Forget what I said yesterday. It was just kidding. I like boys. But, but…, but…” Xia Xiaoluo wasn’t able to express herself clearly because she was crying badly.
“What is going on?” Ouyang Ziqian touched the back of his head, he felt confused about this situation.
With the help of Xiao Lan’s comfort, Xia Xiaoluo calmed down from crying and told them about the nightmare last night.
“Aunt Xiao, Senior Ouyang, I didn’t say it on purpose yesterday. I like boys. I really like boys, but my boy got irritated and didn’t want me anymore” Xia Xiaoluo touched her belly, she was reluctant to leave her child.
“Little fool, it’s just a dream and dreams are usually opposite to our real life. In your dream, the boy was angry and he wanted to leave you. But in reality, the baby boy is delighted and he is going to stay in your belly safely. If you don’t believe it, ask your Senior Ouyang about it!” Xiao Lan said and looked at Ouyang Ziqian.
Ouyang Ziqian understood and said to Xia Xiaoluo at once, “Xiaoluo, that’s right! The baby is good. As the doctor told us that both the baby and you are healthy. Everything is fine. The baby will certainly be good as long as you are relaxed and happy every day.”
“What’s more, you kept your eyes closed when you were doing the B-ultrasound, but we saw the baby just now!” Ouyang Ziqian said and handed the B-ultrasound drawing to Xia Xiaoluo.
“Look! Look at him! What a cute boy!” Ouyang Ziqian said with a smile as if the little boy in the B-ultrasound drawing were his own son, his eyes were full of love.
Xia Xiaoluo touched the little boy in the B-ultrasound drawing, she burst into tears again, “Son, I love you!”
In the following months, Xia Xiaoluo tried her best to do all kinds of fetal education. She was somewhat stupid and she was not good at learning. She was smart sometimes, but she was not intelligent enough. However, she didn’t want her baby to be like her, being regarded as dim-witted. Therefore, she hoped that she could give her baby the best education from the beginning when he was in her belly.
In the late-night, Xia Xiaoluo woke up suddenly and touched her big belly. It would be the expected date of childbirth in less than two months.
Xia Xiaoluo put on a coat and walked to the bay window. She burst into tears again when she saw the bright moon in the sky. She could pretend to be tough and happy in front of Ouyang Ziqian and Xiao Lan. However, when she was alone at night, she couldn’t pretend anymore. It seemed that the wound in her heart had scabbed, but it was always torn up at the late night. It was painful, very painful…
“Ling Tianyi, do you still remember me? I… I miss you, darling, I miss you so much! I want you to accompany me to witness the baby to be born in this world. But have you forgotten me?” Xia Xiaoluo choked with sobs.
While on the other side of the world, Ling Tianyi stood on the roof of the villa and shouted miserably to the bright moon in the sky, “Xiaoluo, please come back quickly!”
“Oh? My baby, I seem to hear your daddy’s voice! He is calling us!” Xia Xiaoluo suddenly had a hallucination.
Xia Xiaoluo loved Ling Tianyi, and she would like to go back to him to give the baby a complete family as long as he could admit his mistake. Even if he was unwilling to apologize, a few good words would be also useful to her. Xia Xiaoluo really hoped that her baby could grow up in a complete family with his dad and mom.
Xia Xiaoluo couldn’t bear it, so she took out the mobile phone Ouyang Ziqian gave her to use in Y Country and dialed the familiar number nervously.
After she pressed the number, her mobile phone rang unexpectedly before she dialed out.
Ouyang Ziqian called Xia Xiaoluo at four o’clock in the morning, so she realized that it must be bad news.
Xia Xiaoluo took a deep breath and answered the phone, “Hello, is that Senior Ouyang?”
“Yes. Xiaoluo, I’m sorry to disturb you at this time. I want to tell you I’m on the way. I will arrive at your place in ten minutes. Pack up and I will take you to another place. Don’t ask me about the reason because I have no time to explain. Pack up quickly!” Ouyang Ziqian’s tone seemed to be in a hurry.
“OK! I see.” Xia Xiaoluo didn’t ask for the reason because she knew that Ouyang Ziqian wouldn’t hurt her. It was right to follow his words.
Xia Xiaoluo had nothing special, so she only took some clothes and sat in the living room, waiting for Ouyang Ziqian. While she was hesitating to call Ling Tianyi, Ouyang Ziqian knocked at the door.
At last, Xia Xiaoluo didn’t make the phone call to Ling Tianyi who was waiting for that call. Instead, she followed Ouyang Ziqian to go to his luxurious manor in Y Country.
“Senior Ouyang, I’m afraid that it’s improper for me to go to your family like this.” Xia Xiaoluo touched her belly. There would definitely be misunderstandings if she went to the Ouyang family like this.
“I don’t have much time. It is urgent and I have no time to think about it. Xiaoluo, just believe that I will protect you and the baby well, that’s enough. Take good care of yourself and your baby.” Ouyang Ziqian frowned; he was trying his best to talk calmly.
“Senior Ouyang, if you don’t tell me what happened, I will be worried all the time. That is harmful to me and the baby.” Xia Xiaoluo became anxious because she didn’t know what was happening now.
“Some entertainment reporters are investigating me and they doubt that the baby in your belly is mine. The Ouyang family belongs to the upper class in Y Country. Although I’m not afraid of this kind of news and it will not affect my reputation, I’m afraid that it won’t be only a scandal if it is exposed to the public.”
“What will happen then?” Xia Xiaoluo asked.
“News will spread all over the world including our familiar A City. In that case, people in A City will come here to find you and hurt you at the first time. First, people of the Qiao family won’t forgive you. Second, Ling Tianyi will also come here to pester you. You can’t be affected by anything at this time because you are going to give birth to the baby in one month.” Ouyang Ziqian said.
“Well, I can hide in that apartment for one month. We don’t have to disturb your family at night now. It’s so late.” Xia Xiaoluo shook her head, she thought that Ouyang Ziqian took it too seriously.
“Don’t underestimate the power of those entertainment reporters. They will wait for you in all the hospitals here. If you give birth to the baby in the hospital, you must be exposed to them. I have two reasons for taking you to my family. First, you can give birth to the baby at my house. There are medical facilities at my house. I can also invite the most excellent doctors to my house. The condition in my house will be as good as that in the hospital outside. Second, we have tarmac for helicopters to take off and land. I can send you to another city to give birth to the baby at any time secretly.” Ouyang Ziqian was still frowning when he said this.
“I’m afraid that your family will hate me. I don’t want to get you and your family into trouble.” Xia Xiaoluo lowered her head and said.
“I’m here and I won’t let this happen! My father has begun to deal with it. Since he was in charge of the matter, he would deal with it until the end. I know my father well, he most probably only wanted to protect my reputation. However, it doesn’t matter. I can do anything as long as you are safe.” Ouyang Ziqian said.
At this time, the car has already arrived at the Ouyang’s manor. Xia Xiaoluo took a deep breath. She couldn’t avoid the things she had to face. She only hoped that the people of Ouyang Ziqian’s family could be easy to get along with.
