Chapter 3 — My Husband and I Are Both Infertile, Three Months After Being Married I Got Pregnant With Quadruplets, He Was Immediately Shocked

When I arrived, he was there, sitting on the sofa, his back straight. The lawyer placed two sealed bags of documents in front of us.

“Mr. Chu, Mrs. Chu, the assessment results are right inside.”

My palms are sweaty. I took mine, my fingertips trembling. Chu Duat also took his share, his movements were decisive, without hesitation. We looked at each other, then simultaneously tore open the file bag. I pulled out a few thin sheets of paper, my eyes jumping straight to the last page. At the conclusion, a bold line of text struck me like a bolt of lightning.

“… Based on the results of DNA analysis, supporting Chu Duat as the biological father of the fetuses tested, the probability of blood relationship is 99.9999%.”

The baby is mine. My tense nerves immediately relaxed, my whole body seemed to have lost all strength and leaned against the sofa. I raised my head to look at Chu Duat. The report in his hand fell to the ground. He looked at me, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief. He suddenly stood up and walked towards me step by step, his tall body carrying a huge pressure.

“Hua Chi.”

His voice was hoarse.

“Who exactly are you?”

Zhu Duat's questioning was like a sledgehammer, hitting my heart hard.

“Who exactly are you?”

I looked at his shaking pupils, there was no longer cold scrutiny, but an emotion mixed between shock, confusion, and even fear. This man who single-handedly built a commercial empire, the Thai Son mountain collapsing in front of him, but his expression remained unchanged, was already losing his rhythm. For me, for the four scientifically inexplicable children in my belly. I moved my lips, but found I didn't know what to say. Who am I? I'm just Hua Chi, a pitiful person who was treated like an ATM by her family since childhood, a woman who sold herself cheaply for money. My background is as clean as a blank sheet of paper, you have already investigated.

“I don't know.” I can only tell the truth, "I just know, I am Hua Chi."

He looked at me deeply, his eyes dark and unpredictable. He didn't ask any more questions, just bent down to pick up the report on the ground, turned around and was about to leave.

“Chu Duat!” I called him back.

His steps stopped, without turning around.

“Now, do you believe me?”

The atmosphere was silent for a few seconds.

“I believe the report.” He threw that sentence back, then strode out of the lawyer's office.

Back at the villa, the atmosphere was stuffy and scary. Chu Duat left me alone in the living room and went upstairs by himself. Not long after, he took a bunch of keys and went down with a "click" sound, locking the large door of the villa. My heart sank.

“What do you mean?”

“Before I clear things up, you can't go anywhere.” His voice was cold and emotionless.

You're keeping me under house arrest. I was so angry that I was shaking and rushed in front of him: "Chu Duat, what do you rely on! I am yours, the appraisal report clearly states it!"

“It's because it's mine that I have to make it even more clear.” He looked at me from above, "Hua Chi, I don't care what secrets you carry, before I clarify, you and my child must be in the safest place."

He squeezed my chin, the force wasn't strong, but it was full of warning.

“And my place is the safest place.”

After speaking, he let me go, turned around and went in office, once again isolating me outside. I sat down on the sofa, both angry and helpless. I thought that once the assessment results were out, everything would be clear. Unexpectedly, I just fell from one mystery into another, bigger mystery. The next day, Tan Tu arrived. Unlike the previous interrogation, this time she was truly like "a mother descending to earth". Behind her is a strong team, two senior nannies, a nutritionist, an obstetrician, and even a psychologist.

“Tieu Chi, my baby!”

As soon as Tan Tu entered the door, she grabbed my hand, with that enthusiastic look, like I was her biological daughter who had been lost for many years. Her eyes were so bright and scary, she kept staring at my stomach.

"You are the great servant of our Chu family! Four children! Oh my god, four great grandchildren!"

She laughed so much that she couldn't close her mouth, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes widened.

"From today onwards, you don't need to do anything, just lie in bed for me! I'll let them serve you twenty-four out of twenty-four! If you want to pick stars from the sky, I'll pick them for you too!"

This attitude of turning one hundred and eighty degrees makes me nauseous. Yesterday he scolded me "I don't know whose breed it is", today he has become a "darling"? She doesn't care about me, she cares about the four pieces of meat that can inherit the fortune in my belly.

"Mom, there's no need, the nanny I hired..."

"Give them all a break! Those low-class people are not worthy of taking care of my grandchild!" Tan Tu waved his hand, his tone not allowing refusal.

"Don't do your job anymore! I've already called your company's boss and completed the paperwork for you to quit your job! From now on, your duty is to take care of the pregnancy!"

I suddenly stood up, my face darkened: "Mom, on what basis do you decide for me?" The smile on Tan Tu's face faded a bit, but still maintained a "gentle" look.

"Tieu Chi, the most important woman is her husband and her children, especially you, being pregnant with quadruplets for our Chu family, this is the greatest career of your life!"

She patted my hand, her tone carrying superiority as if giving.

"Don't worry, as long as you are happy to give birth to these children, the Chu family will not mistreat you. This villa, I will give you another one. I will give you another zero for pocket money on the card."

"If you dare to have any intention of not being in peace..." She changed her tone, her eyes immediately became sharp, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, the Chu family's door is not that easy to get out."

Threat. Blatant intimidation. I am locked in this gilded cage, on one side is my husband who sees me as a monster to be researched, on the other side is my mother-in-law who sees me as a high-class incubator. They don't care whether I Hua Chi lives or dies. I was so angry that my whole body was cold, and I was about to refute when the office door opened. Chu Duat stepped out, followed by an old man wearing Tang robes, pioneering Dao Coc. Tan Tu saw that old man and immediately stood up respectfully.

“Doctor Lieu, you are here.”

The miracle doctor Lieu? I looked at that old man, his beard and hair were white, but his eyes were extremely sharp, like an eagle. Chu Duat walked up to me and said expressionlessly: "Divine Doctor Lieu is the top oriental physician in the country, let him examine you." Doctor Lieu said nothing, just stretched out three fingers and felt his pulse on my wrist. He closed his eyes, his eyebrows sometimes tightening, sometimes relaxing. The living room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Everyone held their breath and looked at him.
