Initially emotionless, Yun Shishi’s eyes flashed momentarily when she heard this and finally regained some focus.
“So, how’s the little guy now?”
“The little one is very strong and everything looks normal right now. However, if this continues, it will definitely have many adverse effects on her health and the child’s.”
The doctor paused for a moment before continuing, “Even if the child survives in the mother’s womb, its natural immunity will be weak. And if the mother’s emotional state fluctuates drastically during pregnancy, it will easily cause the child’s personality to become sensitive in the future. But I’m worried that if this continues, the fetus will stop developing and a miscarriage is possible!”
“A miscarriage?!” Mu Yazhe’s expression was tense. “Aren’t we already giving her a nutrient solution?”
“This sort of nutrition is not sufficient at all. Besides, emotional fluctuations are a big factor!”
The doctor placed the ultrasound film on the light box. He pointed to a very small blob in the film and said to him, “This is the fetus. It’s developing normally and is very strong! Normally, under these circumstances, they won’t last till now!”
Mu Yazhe stared fixedly at the tiny blob. He pursed his thin lips as his eyes turned red.
That was his child…
She could very well be a beautiful little princess!
He had always wanted them to have a daughter, and now this child had descended from the heavens, he felt that it was the best gift God had given him!
But why did he feel such a great sense of helplessness at protecting her?
Mu Yazhe suddenly turned around. He bent over slightly and placed his hands on Yun Shishi’s shoulders, carefully asking, “Shishi, can you hear?! Did you hear that? If you don’t eat and rest well, and continue torturing yourself like this, the child may not survive!”
Yun Shishi widened her eyes in shock and her pupils constricted violently. When she looked at him, all she could see was desolation.
“The child…”
“The child in your belly is nine weeks old. She’s so tiny! Still so young… She’s been growing strong! But…”
His heart ached as he drew her into his embrace. In the past few days, he had been suffering as well.
For her sake, and for the sake of the unborn child, hadn’t he been constantly worried too?
He was constantly afraid.
“That’s enough! That’s enough already, right?! Even if it’s a punishment, it should be enough, right?!”
A drop of hot tear fell on her cheek.
Mu Yazhe circled his arms around the back of her neck. For the first time in his life, the aloof man shed tears in front of her.
“Please stop torturing yourself, huh?! You can torture me or punish me! But stop torturing yourself!”
He choked on his tears. “Shishi, I love you so much, and I love this child in your belly too! Stop torturing yourself! Look at me, look at me…”
He held her face and forced her to look at him.
“It doesn’t matter how you punish me. The child is innocent. Don’t punish her, huh?”
He pleaded with her in a hoarse voice, waiting for an answer.
The reply he got came in the form of a tear falling from her eye.
He hugged her tightly and said, “I can’t lose you or the little one… I don’t know what to do with you. Wake up, wake up…”
He lost his composure and begged her.
He begged her to sober up, to open her eyes and look at the fetus captured on the film.
He even forgot that she couldn’t see a thing.
Yun Shishi slowly regained her senses. She tilted her head slightly and looked at the film. All she saw was a thick haze.
