To preserve a pregnancy is to administer injections, take medication, and then rest in bed.
Jiang Nan Fang was not so severely ill that she couldn't walk, but after the doctor's arrangements, Zhan Bei Jue held her the entire time, refusing to let her off the ground.
Upon entering the VIP ward, he even called Zhou Jin Bei, demanding that she not bother Jiang Nan Fang.
"I'm having a confinement nanny find you, the most reputable one in Nancheng to care for you. Zhou Jin Bei is always so boisterous and careless, she must stay away from you."
"And Chen Jiao Jiao. Until the fetus stabilizes in the first three months, you are not allowed to see them."
Jiang Nan Fang felt as though she had an incurable disease, Zhan Bei Jue was so anxious she thought he was about to faint.
"Is it necessary? Zhou Jin Bei and Chen Jiao Jiao aren't mindless; would they specifically try to harm me?"
"Besides, your sister is also pregnant now. Must you be so exaggerated?"
Zhan Bei Jue felt it was very necessary. "If she were a normal pregnant woman, would she have lost her child before? Don't talk back, listen to me."
He appeared extremely anxious and flustered, a state Jiang Nan Fang had never seen him in, even when dealing with projects worth billions.
He stood there, flipping through his phone with a solemn expression, while seriously instructing Jiang Nan Fang, as if facing a formidable enemy.
"Forget it, it's useless to tell you. With your temperament, if Zhou Jin Bei comes looking for you, you'll definitely let her in. She can't be allowed to ruin my good deeds. I won't be going to the company today."
"The confinement nanny hasn't arrived yet, so I'll stay to keep you company. Close your eyes and sleep. Don't worry about anything, just take good care of yourself. Leave the rest to me."
Jiang Nan Fang knew that the loss of their previous child had left him with a profound shadow, so he would not allow any missteps this time.
To be honest, Jiang Nan Fang also felt terrible about the incident last time.
The children were all eagerly anticipating the arrival of the little one; no, the entire family was eagerly anticipating it, only for their hopes to be dashed.
If she had the means, she naturally wished for this time to be smooth.
Although Zhan Bei Jue's behavior was over the top, she still obediently listened and rested with her eyes closed on the bed.
She heard Zhan Bei Jue calling his second assistant, instructing her to find the best-rated confinement nanny in the entire city within an hour and send her to the hospital ward.
Normally, Zhan Bei Jue's personal matters were handled by his personal assistant, Zhou Jin Bei, so his second assistant was not privy to his private affairs.
Hearing these instructions suddenly, she couldn't help but be surprised.
After hanging up the phone, she immediately gossiped with her colleagues, and soon, the entire administrative staff group was aware of the news.
"President Zhan asked for a confinement nanny to be sent to the ward? Is he dating someone new? Or has he remarried? He's going to be a father again, I'm so heartbroken!"
"Exactly. He's usually either working overtime or on business trips, so busy he's killing himself, seeming to have no time for relationships. When did this happen?"
"So heartbroken, my idol has been snatched away, sob, I have no motivation to come to work anymore."
"So envious, who is this woman? She's actually having a baby for him, I also want to have a baby for him..."
Zhan Bei Jue had hurriedly taken Jiang Nan Fang away from Chen Jiao Jiao's doorstep. Zhou Jin Bei waited inside for a moment, and seeing that no one was coming in, she couldn't help but check the entrance.
To her surprise, she exclaimed, "Am I seeing ghosts? Why is no one here? I clearly heard you talking to someone just now."
"If there's no one, why are you standing at the door?"
Chen Jiao Jiao said, "Your second brother and sister-in-law did come just now, but sister-in-law tripped at the entrance and was carried away by your second brother."
"Ah? Tripped? Is it serious?"
"Quite serious. She dangled in mid-air for a good second or two. If they had gone to the hospital any later, she might have been gone."
Zhou Jin Bei couldn't help but chuckle at her sarcasm.
"Don't speak sarcastically. Even though their child is several years old, they divorced and remarried, they're no different from a newlywed couple."
"When a newlywed wife accidentally trips, shouldn't he protect her dearly?"
Chen Jiao Jiao replied, "Mm. According to your logic, it's very serious. Should we two buy some gifts and go visit them in the hospital?"
"Of course. At least we should make a phone call to inquire."
The two returned home and sent messages to Jiang Nan Fang in their group chat, asking how she was and if she was coming today.
After several minutes, Jiang Nan Fang didn't reply, so Zhou Jin Bei called her.
At that time, Zhan Bei Jue was rushing to the hospital in a panic and wasn't answering anyone's calls.
Zhou Jin Bei started to panic. If she wasn't answering calls or replying to messages, could something have really happened?
However, she didn't know which hospital he had gone to, so she could only wait at home.
An hour later, Zhou Jin Bei called again.
Zhan Bei Jue had just hung up on his second assistant and, upon seeing her name, answered with a stern expression.
Before Zhou Jin Bei could even call him "Second Brother," he coldly instructed her.
"Your sister-in-law is pregnant."
Zhou Jin Bei was stunned. "Ah?"
"You heard correctly, pregnant, just found out."
"This... That's wonderful! How far along is she? What a coincidence, she's pregnant at the same time as me! We have triple happiness today, we must..."
Zhan Bei Jue interrupted her.
"She tripped at Chen Jiao Jiao's doorstep just now, which disturbed the fetus. The doctor said she's very weak and needs to preserve the pregnancy, so Zhou Jin Bei."
"From now on, during her period of pregnancy preservation, no, during her first three months of pregnancy, you are not allowed to come near her."
"What?!"
Zhan Bei Jue's ears hurt from the loudness of her voice through the phone. He moved the phone further away and looked at the screen with displeasure.
"Are you surprised? If you usually acted a little more reliable, I wouldn't treat you as a potential threat."
"And Chen Jiao Jiao, neither of you are allowed to come. It's best not to send her WeChat messages either, avoid online communication. You two are too boisterous when you talk, don't affect her mood."
So, Jiang Nan Fang is pregnant, and they are afraid the baby might be harmed, treating her like a panda, while they are treated like trash.
And dangerous individuals, needing to stay away from her?
This discrimination! Zhou Jin Bei was furious!
"I just praised you for being a good uncle, and now you're acting like this towards me. You're really not human, Zhan Bei Jue."
"Your wife is pregnant, and I'm pregnant too. Instead of taking care of me, you're making me angry. You..."
Zhan Bei Jue said, "What does it have to do with me that you're pregnant? Talk to Ah Zhong."
"I don't care how you handle yourself, but stay away from my wife. Chen Jiao Jiao should be by your side too, so I won't repeat myself."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Nan Fang opened her eyes.
Zhan Bei Jue's words were truly excessive and hurtful.
After all, Zhou Jin Bei was also pregnant and her friend; acting this way would damage their relationship.
She wanted to scold him a few words, but then she saw Zhan Bei Jue tilting his neck back with a look of discomfort, stroking it with his slender hand.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Seeing that he seemed to have difficulty breathing, Jiang Nan Fang was too scared to speak.
Zhan Bei Jue couldn't explain what was wrong with him; his throat felt somewhat uncomfortable, but he could endure it.
