Huo Xiao Fan wanted to find a perfect chance to break the good news to Huo Shen. She thought that Nana and Jinhai's wedding ceremony is the perfect occasion.
As she walked out of the doctor's room, she was giggling to herself.
OMG, Shen will be so shocked. He would have never imagined that I will get pregnant.
What will be his reaction, I wonder?
That was the ti when Jianyu saw her humming to herself. He was there to collect Serena's reports, and as he stepped out, he saw her.
Ah? Why is mother-in-law here?
He was about to call her when he saw the file in her hand. His gaze squinted as he faintly read the words on the first page.
Pregnant?
That shook the living daylights out of him.
Mother-in-law is pregnant!!??
His mouth was widely opened in a big O, and he could hardly believe what he saw. He stood rooted for a long ti in shock.
That isamazing
He raised his brow in amusent.
Ho~~So Serena will soon get a brother or sister. Wonder I should tell her? Her expression will be so priceless! HmmNah. It's such big news for my mother-in-law. She should decide when and how to break it.
Even though Jianyu decided to keep it a secret, it ca in handy during the ring ga. He knew she was waiting for a chance to tell everybody, especially Huo Shen, first and she wouldn't want her pregnancy known like that by him in a ga.
As expected, Huo Xiao Fan's expression changed when Jianyu whispered that he knew she was pregnant. She didn't need to think a second more and quickly handed him the ring.
Though he felt a little guilty, he had no choice.
Aish, sorry, Mom. But I had to do this. Everything is fair in love and war.
After all the celebrations were over, Huo Xiao Fan finally broke it to Huo Shen that night when he urged her to answer.
He was following her throughout the whole room, asking a series of questions.
"Xiao Fan. How could you do this? Why did you give Jianyu the ring? Just what did he say that made you break down?"
"WellI wanted to tell you first, and if I hadn't given the ring to him, Jianyu would have spilled out everything."
Huo Shen frowned. "Spill out what?"
Huo Xiao Fan felt a little nervous. She gently held his hand and looked at him.
"I"
"Hm? What is it?" Then he gasped. "Did Jianyu threaten you with sothing?"
She coughed. "Well, sort of."
His nostrils flared in anger. "Aha! I knew it. How dare he? Let teach him a lesson! Wait here, Xiao Fan."
Huo Xiao Fan quickly pulled him back. "Shen, wait! It's not serious."
"How is it not?"
She narrowed her eyes. "You just don't want Zhilan to be with him, don't you?"
That was true, indeed.
Huo Shen stiffened and awkwardly laughed. "Haha.. what are you saying? Of course, I am not thinking like that."
She sighed. "Zhilan is married now, so leave her with Jianyu, okay? They are grown-up adults. Don't interfere!"
Huo Shen turned ek. "A-alright"
She nodded. "Now listen to ."
"Yes" he was still feeling down after his wife's scolding.
Huo Xiao Fan took a deep breath. "I am pregnant."
"I see"
She waited because she knew that it didn't register in his brain.
Huo Shen blinked his eyes.
Wait. Sothing doesn't seem right.
He looked at her.
"What?"
"I am pregnant," she patiently said.
He blankly kept staring at her. His brain was really unable to process it just as she has expected. That was her sa reaction when she learned about it too. She couldn't bla him at all.
"Why is it that I understand your words, yet I don't understand them at all?"
"Oh, trust , I went through the sa feelings as you when the doctor broke out to ."
Huo Shen's heart raced faster, seeing the deadly serious expression on her face. "Xiao Fan, you know, this is not our age for you pulling my leg like this in this matter."
Huo Xiao Fan said, "Shen, I am serious. I find it hard to believe it myself, but it is true. I am pregnant. You are going to be a father."
Huo Shen was stunned. His mouth opened and closed almost a hundred tis, but he was still at a loss for words.
He held her shoulders in anticipation and excitent and disbelief and shock all at the sa ti.
"Xiao FanhowI-Iit still seems unbelievable."
She chuckled and wrapped her arms around his neck. "It is true, Mr. Huo. We are going to be parents."
"Ahhhhhhh!!! I am going to be a father! I am going to be a father!"
He jumped around the room like a little kid. "Xiao Fanour babyI-it still feels a dreamAre we really having our own child?" His eyes shone in tears, and they trickled down his cheeks. He felt so happy, as if he was floating in the air.
She softly nodded. "The truth is that Ireally wished for us to have a child, too, but I thought it was too late at this stage. So, I never brought it up. And I didn't you want you to take any unnecessary stress over this thing which wasn't in our control anyway."
His heart ached to see her sad. "Xiao FanNevertheless, you should have told . Whatever it was on your mind. Possible or not, I want you to share everything with ."
She smiled. "Silly. I know you well. You would have taken the responsibility on yourself as if it was your mistake. Don't lie!"
Huo Shen pursed his lips.
"But now that it beca true, I couldn't wait to share it with you."
He quickly said. "I am really happy, Xiao Fan! Butbut is it safe? I an your ageI don't want anything happen to you."
She shook her head. "The doctor said that it's safe. She even praised that I kept a healthy lifestyle until now, so my body is fit for pregnancy even at this age."
The remaining tension in his brows eased as well. He felt overwheld with joy.
"Oh, God. It's really happening. I am going to be a father"
He picked her up and twirled her in the air.
She laughed. "Shen. Put down."
"Haha! Xiao Fan! You are pregnant! We are going to be parents! Woohoooooooooo!!!"
