Chapter 4 — Pregnant With Ex-Boyfriend

I gritted my teeth and continued walking forward. Lower abdomen suddenly aches and pains. Like something was pulling it down. I clung to the roadside barrier, in so much pain that my face darkened. The stream of comments ran at breakneck speed. [It's coming, it's coming, as soon as it leaves Ha Duat Xuyen's protection range, it starts editing the plot.] [In the original plot, this is the part of the road, Khuong Tu was taken away by Quy Van Chau's people.] [She still dares to speak loudly, the baby is about to be unable to hold it.] I felt weak, my legs were unsteady, I sat down in the rain, my hands clutching my lower abdomen.

“Ha Duat Xuyen…”

The sound was swallowed by the rain. The next second, the sound of rapid footsteps was heard from behind. Ha Duat Xuyen rushed over, took off his coat and wrapped it around me, hugging me up. His face was scary white.

“Where does it hurt?”

I grabbed his collar and cried bitterly.

“Stomach pain.”

His arms around me tightened, his voice was hoarse as if sandpaper had been rubbed over it.

"Khuong Tu, what dare happen to you?"

He bowed his head and looked at me, his eyes filled with cruelty.

“I will kill Gui Wenzhou.”

I lay on the hospital bed, the IV needle still stuck in the back of my hand, and my lower abdomen occasionally cramped. Ha Duat Xuyen stood next to the bed, his clothes were soaked, water dripped down the hem of his pants onto the floor. The doctor frowned at him.

"Your family should go change first, so you don't catch a cold."

You didn't seem to hear. The doctor gave him the ultrasound form.

"There's a risk of miscarriage. The pregnant woman's psychology changes too much, and she's been exposed to the rain. In the near future, she must stay in bed to recuperate."

“What about the baby?”

Ha Duat Xuyen spoke hoarsely. The doctor glanced at him.

"It's okay for now. If you continue to torture yourself like this in the future, no one can guarantee anything."

I closed my eyes tightly. Got it. Only then did the tightness in his chest dare to breathe out slowly. Ha Duat Xuyen held the paper, his fingertips clenched tightly, creasing the corners of the paper. I whispered: "I'm okay." He didn't look at me.

“I almost had something happen just now.”

"I don't want to..."

“There are a lot of things I don't want to happen.”

What he said made my nose sting.

“Ha Duat Xuyen, I told you to get out of the car.”

His face became even whiter. Actually, as soon as I said it, I immediately regretted it. He sat down in the chair next to him, his elbows on his knees, his head down. A while later, I saw blood on the back of his hand. It's because the nails are clenched so hard that they bleed. I felt sad, reaching out my hand to touch it. He immediately dodged away. Tears immediately welled up in my eyes.

“Are you still avoiding me?”

Ha Duat Xuyen raised his head, his eyes were bloodshot and scary.

"Khuong Tu, do you want to keep this baby or not?"

I was asked a speechless question. At first, I was just afraid of death. Afraid of the plot, afraid of traffic accidents, afraid of Ha Duat Xuyen and his child being robbed by others. But just now when the pain came, I only had one sentence in my mind. Nothing can happen. Nothing can happen to me. I held the blanket tightly, my voice was very light.

“I don't know.”

Ha Duat Xuyen's eyes darkened. I panicked, pushed myself to sit up.

“But now I don't want anything to happen to my child.”

His throat moved slightly.

“Lie down.”

The tone was still cold, but the movements were extremely careful. He placed a pillow behind my back, then again Help me lay flat the hand that is receiving the IV fluid. I looked at his downcast eyes and suddenly remembered the time I had a fever before and he stayed up all night watching me like that. At that time, I still found him annoying. He also said he was like a nanny. Now the nanny refuses to comfort me anymore. Makes me feel strangely sorry for myself. There was a knock on the hospital room door. The nurse pushed the door open.

"Miss Khuong's primary care doctor is here."

A woman followed. Wearing a white blouse, long hair tied in a low bun, gentle and pure eyebrows. She saw Ha Duat Xuyen and her steps stopped slightly.

“Duat Xuyen.”

Ha Duat Xuyen raised his eyes. At that moment, the cold expression on his face seemed to melt away a bit. The woman smiled lightly.

“Long time no see.”

My chest is tight. The comment stream jumped up again like crazy. [It's here, it's here, the original heroine Lam Nhuy An has finally appeared.] [She is the light of Ha Duat Xuyen's childhood.] [Khuong Tu, this ex-girlfriend who always makes fun of him, what can be compared to the bright moonlight that saved his life?] Lam Nhuy An walked to the bedside and looked at me gently.

"Hello, I'm Lam Nhuy An, next I will be in charge of monitoring your pregnancy."

I grabbed the corner of the blanket tightly. Her eyes stopped at my lower abdomen, then looked at Ha Duat Xuyen.

“Is the baby yours?”

Lam Nhuy An asked very softly. But when I heard it in my ears, I felt uncomfortable all over. What is "is the baby yours"? It was as if I was pregnant with some unknown problem in my belly. I took advantage of Ha Duat Xuyen's words.

“Of course it's his.”

Ha Duat Xuyen glanced at me and did not refute. Lam Nhuy An still kept a smile on her lips.

"I just confirmed according to the procedure. Ms. Khuong, don't be nervous."

She flipped through the medical records, her voice as gentle as spring water.

"The most taboo thing for a newly pregnant woman is that her emotions go up and down. Especially if she has just been threatened with a miscarriage, her relatives must pay more attention and stop provoking her."

Nearby relatives. When she said these four words, her eyes turned towards Ha Duat Xuyen. Ha Duat Xuyen asked in a low voice: "How should we nourish the next stage?" Lam Nhuy An bowed her head and wrote the medical order.

"Rest in bed, eat frugally, and get your check-up on time. In the past, you liked to handle everything alone, don't try too hard this time."

My fingers clenched tightly. The day before. Sure enough, there was a "back in the day" between them. Ha Duat Xuyen's voice is very light.

“We haven't contacted you for many years, do you still remember?”

Lam Nhuy An's pen stopped, smiling slightly.

“Those days at the orphanage are hard to forget.”

The atmosphere in the hospital room suddenly became extremely quiet. I looked at Ha Duat Xuyen. Before, he rarely talked about the past with me. I just criticized him for being gloomy, criticizing him for sometimes being like a stray dog picked up from a rainy night. But Lam Nhuy An could gently let go of the three words "orphanage" so easily. The comment screen started attacking me again. [Lam Nhuy An was the light when he fell into that dead end.] [Previously, Khuong Tu only knew how to criticize him for being poor, criticizing him for not being worthy of her showing off.] [The ex-girlfriend likes to do her own thing. I'm so confused, the person who truly understands Ha Duat Xuyen has arrived.] My heart was so upset that it hurt, but I deliberately laughed.

"Doctor Lam really cares about my boyfriend, doesn't he?"

The ends of Ha Duat Xuyen's eyebrows frowned slightly. Lam Nhuy An raised her head.

“Boyfriend?”

I deliberately reached out and took Ha Duat Xuyen's arm.

“Ex-boyfriends getting back together, isn't that okay?”

Ha Duat Xuyen's body stiffened slightly. But he didn't push me away. I pushed forward even more, rubbing my head close to his shoulder, my voice sweet.

“Is that right, Duat Xuyen?”

He lowered his eyes and looked at me. That look is a bit complicated. Finally, he quietly said "yes" with a low voice.
