Chapter 348: The Fourth Young Master’s Wife is Unwell
The butler had spoken without thinking, but upon hearing this, Xu Chaomu paused her movents. How could she stay at the Shen family’s house.
The butler quickly changed the subject, addressing Dabai, “Dabai, you must always be good to Chaomu, understand?”
Dabai licked Xu Chaomu’s hand and squinted its eyes contentedly.
Xu Chaomu smiled, “Dabai, how can you still be so adorable? When I’m free, I’ll take you for a walk.”
Dabai barked twice in response to Xu Chaomu, as if it understood her words.
Xu Chaomu rembered a night five years ago when she was walking with Dabai and Shen Chi. They were strolling along a path lined with peach blossoms.
Dabai ran happily in front, while she followed with its leash in her hand, and Shen Chi walked by her side, a light smile on his handso face.
But five years had passed, and everything had changed.
Xu Chaomu leaned her head against Dabai, “Dabai, have you not been eating well these past five years? You look thinner. You’re not allowed to do that anymore.”
“Dabai, did soone find you a mate?”
The butler laughed at that, while Dabai barked twice, as though in protest.
With that protest, Xu Chaomu understood.
“That blockhead doesn’t know how to look after our Dabai’s life. Don’t worry, I’ll find you a good match. Oh, and I’ve got a new puppy nad ‘Wealth’. I’ll bring it to play with you soday.”
Dabai barked discontentedly, this ti even louder.
The butler chuckled, “Chaomu, it’s jealous because you have a new puppy, and Dabai thinks you don’t want it anymore.”
Xu Chaomu rubbed its fur and said with a laugh, “So petty.”
That day, Xu Chaomu spent all her ti playing with Dabai.
Later on, she took Dabai alone for a walk in the Shen family’s back garden.
Dabai acted as though it hadn’t been out in a long ti, sniffing the wildflowers along the path and slling the bark of trees, like a little child fascinated by everything.
Xu Chaomu was also enjoying herself, accompanying Dabai from noon until evening.
Even though the weather was hot, Xu Chaomu didn’t feel it at all. Dabai was having a great ti, and so was she.
Sotis when she got tired, she would sit on a stone bench to rest. Once rested, she would continue walking with Dabai.
However, by evening, maybe because she had walked a bit too much, she started to feel so pain in her stomach.
She had no choice but to take Dabai back to its kennel, but her stomach still hurt a lot.
The butler noticed sothing was wrong and hurried over, “Chaomu, what’s wrong with you?”
“My stomach hurts…” Xu Chaomu said, covering her abdon, sweat beads forming on her forehead.
“Is it because you walked too much? I’ll call the doctor to have a look at you.”
Xu Chaomu nodded her head, she didn’t want anything to happen to her child.
The butler helped her to the sofa, removed her apron, and hastily dialed the doctor’s number on her mobile.
“Dr. Wen, please co over, our Fourth Young Madam is feeling unwell.”
“Hmm? Fourth Young Madam?” Wen Zhiyuan on the other end of the phone sounded startled.
When did Shen Chi get married? Why didn’t he know?
“Stop asking so many questions, just co over.”
“Okay, just give a mont.”
After returning from abroad five years ago, Wen Zhiyuan had bought a small villa in Splendid World and was living alone. Occasionally, if the Shen family needed sothing, they would ask for his help.
Sure enough, it wasn’t long before Wen Zhiyuan arrived.
The butler looked from side to side on the steps, waiting for him.
“The Shen family has a Fourth Young Madam now, how co I didn’t know?” Wen Zhiyuan said with a smile.
“You’re so busy, Dr. Wen, of course you wouldn’t know,” the butler joked.
“Oh? It seems like there was no one who could capture Shen Chi’s heart, right?”
“Stop talking nonsense, our Fourth Young Master is not a monk.”
“With the way he is, he’s nearly a monk,” Wen Zhiyuan said with a laugh.
Carrying his dical kit, he followed the butler into the house.
On the sofa, Xu Chaomu was holding her stomach with a pained expression, her beautiful features almost contorted from the discomfort.
As soon as Wen Zhiyuan entered, he saw a woman with long hair draped over her shoulders, and he didn’t react imdiately.
“What’s troubling you?” Wen Zhiyuan asked gently, putting his dical kit down and speaking softly.
“My stomach hurts so much,” Xu Chaomu lifted her head.
As their eyes t, both were taken aback.
“It’s you,” Wen Zhiyuan was the first to speak.
“Long ti no see, Dr. Wen,” Xu Chaomu said with a faint smile, despite the pain in her stomach.
Wen Zhiyuan was initially surprised, but soon, his astonishnt faded away.
This title of “Fourth Young Madam” could only belong to the woman before him.
It was Xu Chaomu, the woman for whom Shen Chi had searched so desperately for five whole years, like a madman.
He had never known that Shen Chi could love soone so deeply.
The butler was taken aback for a mont: “Do you two know each other?”
“We’ve t before,” Wen Zhiyuan said with a slight curve of his lips.
“Well, that’s good, no need for introductions then. Dr. Wen, please check on Chaomu, she’s pregnant and feeling so stomach pain now.”
“Hmm?” Wen Zhiyuan’s smooth, handso face showed a hint of confusion.
Pregnant?
He initially thought that Xu Chaomu might have had a bad stomach ache, but he hadn’t anticipated a pregnancy.
But Chen Chi hadn’t seen Xu Chaomu for five full years, so this child…
“Dr. Wen, please check on Chaomu first, I’ll explain to you later,” the butler said urgently.
“Mhm.”
Wen Zhiyuan asked Xu Chaomu a few simple questions, such as what she had done that afternoon and what she had eaten, then examined her complexion.
“It’s just a minor case of fetal distress. Rest well and it’ll be fine, there’s no problem. Make sure there’s soone to take care of you, and you’ll be good,” Wen Zhiyuan advised.
“Are you sure it’s nothing serious?” Xu Chaomu inquired.
Because of the stomach pain, her face was deathly pale, completely devoid of color.
“Don’t worry, it’ll be okay. Just go to the bed and lie down to rest,” Wen Zhiyuan assured.
“Should I take any dicine?” the butler asked.
“It’s better not to if it’s not necessary. There’s no problem. Just rember to eat nutritious food and take good care of yourself,” Wen Zhiyuan instructed. “You should probably have a full prenatal checkup at the hospital in the next few days.”
“Okay, okay, I got it. I’ll take good care of Chaomu,” the butler responded.
“Mhm.” Wen Zhiyuan packed up his dical kit, “Where’s the Fourth Young Master?”
“The Fourth Young Master has gone to A City for business and probably won’t be back for a while.”
“He’s not worried, even though his wife is pregnant?”
“Well…it can’t be helped. He can’t stay by her side twenty-four hours a day,” the butler explained.
“Mhm, then butler, you should accompany her for the prenatal checkup in the next few days. Don’t let her go alone,” Wen Zhiyuan suggested.
“Of course not. With so many people here at the Shen family, we definitely won’t let Chaomu go alone.”
Xu Chaomu was still clutching her stomach, and she looked up, “Dr. Wen, thank you.”
“You’re welco, Chaomu, it’s been five years.”
“Mhm.”
