Stealing Your Heart Chapter 216

“Are you hurt?” Zong Qifeng was shocked. He quickly turned his back to her.

“Please, send me to the hospital.” No matter how embarrassing the situation was, she knew that was the priority.

She didn’t know what it really felt like. It was terrible, to say the least.

Zong Qifeng dashed to the side of her bed. He pulled out the bed sheet and covered her body with it before carrying her.

Her body was light. For the first time, Zong Qifeng felt her body warmth and breath. He became very concerned. “Where does it hurt?” Why is she bleeding? How come there are blood stains on the floor?

Cheng Yuxiu lowered her head not knowing what to say and how to tell him so she kept quiet. How am I supposed to tell him that I am probably pregnant with his child?

She was sure Zong Qifeng’s affection towards his wife was sincere.

Hence, she was unsure if he would hate this child she was carrying.

Will he dislike the child, or be unwilling to accept him?

There were just so many uncertainties which were why she dared not disclose the truth.

She was admitted to the hospital before long.

As expected, she was confirmed pregnant for two months; in the ninth week of pregnancy to be exact.

She was unaware of the pregnancy. There had been no morning sickness to alert her.

Given bleeding as a sign of possible miscarriage, the doctor strongly advised her to rest in bed until the fetus had settled down.

Lying on the operating theater, Cheng Yuxiu felt dazed under the lights. The smell of disinfectant on the tip of her nose was cold and pungent. “I have taken some wine. Would it have any adverse effect on the fetus?”

“No problem if it was just a little bit. But if you are worried, make sure you come for checkup regularly. This fall was quite dangerous; it has caused some bleeding. If you want this baby, you must take a good rest. Otherwise, you run the risk of a miscarriage.”

Cheng Yuxiu nodded. “I got it.”

When the doctor wheeled her out of the operating theater, she closed her eyes pretending to sleep.

Zong Qifeng was on a phone call in the aisle outside the operating theater. When the door opened, he quickly cut short the conversation. Cheng Yuxiu was wheeled out and Zong Qifeng walked over to have a look. Her eyes were closed and appeared to be asleep.

Her face was pale.

Zong Qifeng looked at the doctor. “How is her injury? Is it serious?”

“She is not injured, but there are signs of possible miscarriage. If you want to have this baby, make sure she takes a good rest in bed. Don’t move around.”

Lying on the bed pretending to be asleep, Cheng Yuxiu gripped the bed sheet under the blanket. She was afraid the doctor would reveal what she had deliberately refrained from telling Zong Qifeng.

Zong Qifeng stood still, lost. She is pregnant!

Whose child is it?

Mine?

Like Cheng Yuxiu, his mind was loaded with confusion.

He wondered how he was going to face this twist of event.

“How long has it been?” He held his hands together.

“9 weeks.”

The doctor added, “She seems to worry too much. This is not good for her pregnancy. She needs a good rest and someone to talk to and keep her company.”

Zong Qifeng nodded.

Then he followed the nurse who wheeled her into the ward.

The doctor gave further advice. “She has started bleeding already. She must not come down from bed to walkabout. Don’t go to work, and no sex please.”

The doctor went straight to the point, thinking they were a lawful couple.

Zong Qifeng coughed in a rather unnatural manner. “I got it.”

Then the doctor left with the nurse.

Cheng Yuxiu felt lucky to have pretended to be asleep. Otherwise, she wouldn’t know how to face Zong Qifeng.
