“Patient number 23, Shen Yao, please proceed to Clinic 1 in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department. Patient number 23, Shen Yao, please proceed to Clinic 1 in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department…”
After the announcement was made several times, Shen Yao finally came back to her senses. She quickly took her slip and walked into Clinic 1.
A couple of days prior, Shen Yao had been so frightened by a remark from Mo Xuan that she immediately drove to the county hospital.
Mo Xuan had said there was a life fluctuation within her and asked if she had decided to have a little sister for herself. Shen Yao was completely stunned by this.
Shen Yao quickly used her spiritual energy to scan and discovered that there was indeed a life form in her lower abdomen, one that had just developed a heartbeat.
Even though she knew the truth, she still wasn't at ease and went to the hospital for a check-up.
“Shen Yao, 21 years old. The fetus should be around six weeks. Fetal development is normal, with good fetal heart and yolk sac development. Furthermore, you have a double gestational sac. Congratulations.”
An obstetrician in her forties smiled at Shen Yao as she spoke.
But the next second, seeing that Shen Yao's expression wasn't particularly happy, the doctor's complexion turned a little displeased. “What’s wrong? You don’t want these two children?”
“Ah? Ah? No, no, I just haven’t processed it yet,” Shen Yao quickly replied.
The female doctor’s expression improved upon seeing Shen Yao’s demeanor. “That’s right. Your babies are very healthy. The chance of having twins is very small. You’re very lucky. In a few more months, you’ll see two adorable little babies.”
The female doctor’s tone was very gentle. She continued, “You probably haven’t established your medical records yet, right? Where is your home? I’ll help you establish your records here, then you can get a mother-child booklet to take back, and then pick up two bottles of folic acid. Make sure to take it, and come back for a follow-up check-up in another month…”
And so, like a marionette, Shen Yao followed the doctor's instructions, established her records, took the mother-child booklet, and left the hospital with a few bottles of folic acid.
It wasn’t until she was sitting in her car that Shen Yao slowly began to recover. She reached out and touched her belly, unable to imagine that there were two little babies inside her.
After that, Shen Yao thought of the absurd night that she had completely put behind her.
Because of her deliberate neglect, Shen Yao had never thought about it again. She never expected that she would actually get pregnant!
How would she explain it to her parents and siblings when she got home?
Shen Yao had never considered not keeping the children. Not to mention that they were two lives, but just from her experiences in the cultivation world, where she had witnessed how difficult it was to conceive offspring, she would definitely keep these two children.
The car stopped in the hospital parking lot. There were many maternal and infant stores around the parking lot.
When Shen Yao’s gaze fell upon the items in the maternal and infant stores, there was an unwitting gentleness in her eyes.
As if compelled by an unseen force, Shen Yao got out of the car and walked inside.
Upon entering, a sales assistant eagerly came forward to greet her. “Miss, what are you looking for? For what age baby, a boy or a girl?”
Hearing this, Shen Yao said, “I… I don’t know.”
The sales assistant didn’t rush her but patiently inquired, “Then can you tell me your needs? I can recommend something for you.”
“I… I want to buy something for my baby. I just found out I’m pregnant, and I don’t know what to buy.”
The sales assistant smiled upon hearing this. “Congratulations! But from what you’re saying, it seems you’ve just conceived. So you don’t need to prepare anything yet, nor do you need to take anything extra. However, you must take your folic acid. The doctor should have prescribed it for you, right?
Also, make sure to have regular check-ups, and keep your nutrition up. After 20 weeks, you can start taking some DHA. Then, in the third trimester, pay attention to your health. Around 35 weeks of pregnancy, you can start preparing your hospital bag, diapers, and so on…”
The sales assistant spoke one by one, without any impatience. She even shared some common knowledge with Shen Yao about purchasing baby items.
Shen Yao: “Thank you.”
Sales assistant: “You’re welcome. Come back and have a look when you need something.”
Shen Yao bid farewell to the sales assistant. As she was leaving, the sales assistant gave her a small milk bottle.
Shen Yao tried to refuse, but the sales assistant insisted on giving it to her, saying that the store was having a promotion and everyone who came in could receive one.
It was already afternoon when Shen Yao returned home. Seeing Shen Yao return, Shen Mama immediately came over to her. “Yaoyao, why did you go to the hospital?”
“Yes, are you feeling unwell somewhere?” Although Shen Huaimin couldn’t tell if his sister was sick, he was still worried that she might genuinely be unwell.
Shen Papa: “Yaoyao, are you really sick?”
…
Facing her concerned family, Shen Yao felt even more unable to speak.
Shen Yao’s silence further frightened the entire Shen family.
“She’s really sick, isn’t she! What kind of illness? Is it serious? Is it bad?”
“Yes, Yaoyao, just say it, you child.”
“It’s alright, little sister. If you’re sick, we’ll go to the doctor.”
Mo Xuan: …
With his mother now, even King Yama wouldn't dare to take her, alright?
“I’m pregnant.”
Shen Yao gritted her teeth and closed her eyes as she said it.
Upon hearing this, the Shen family’s hearts finally relaxed. “Oh, you’re pregnant. That’s good, that’s really good. This is a happy occasion.”
Wait, something didn’t seem right.
“Screech”
Shen Huaisang suddenly stood up, the chair scraping against the floor. “You’re pregnant! Which bastard did this!”
The other members of the Shen family finally reacted. Pregnant? Their daughter/sister was pregnant?
Shen Huaimin: “When did this happen?”
Ning Min: “Is it that Chen Xiaodong’s?”
Shen Papa: “Who is the father of the child? I’ll break his legs!”
Shen Mama: “Don’t scare the child, come, Yaoyao, tell Mom what happened?”
Shen Yao put her hand to her forehead. She knew this would happen.
“Dad, this child was an accident,” Shen Yao said helplessly.
“What accident? Doesn’t that bastard want to take responsibility?!” Shen Papa’s entire being ignited like a firecracker at the thought.
“No, listen to me.” Shen Yao calmed Shen Papa down. “Didn’t I win the lottery before? After claiming the prize, I went abroad for a trip. I went drinking at a bar one night and accidentally got drunk. Someone was bothering me, and that person helped me drive them away. Then, in my dazed state, I… I…”
Ahem, Shen Yao felt embarrassed to continue. She had to admit that she had initiated it and behaved that way towards him.
She was sure she had acted on her desires fueled by alcohol.
The Shen family: … What…
The Shen family was speechless. They had initially thought someone was irresponsible towards their daughter, but they never expected that their own daughter had been the one to take the initiative.
“Yaoyao, do you recognize who he is? What does he look like? What’s his name?”
Shen Yao shook her head. “He had yellow hair and a pair of amber eyes. Very handsome!”
Shen Yao put a lot of emphasis on the last two words.
The Shen family: He’s even a foreigner!
