He carefully stroked Xia Yubing’s abdon, as if a vibrant little life was already being nurtured there.
"However,"
He raised his head, looking determinedly at Xia Yubing, "I need to take you for a thorough examination. If it’s true, considering how we... over those days."
Xia Yubing’s face flushed imdiately.
Actually, she was also very worried. During the days in Banna, they had indeed been a bit unrestrained, and now thinking back, Xia Yubing also felt so fright.
She gently stroked her own abdon, filled with nervousness and insecurity.
"Alright, let’s go now." Chen Cheng put on his coat, "It’s better to check early and be reassured."
"Honey..."
Xia Yubing stopped him.
"What’s up?" Chen Cheng paused in his actions.
Xia Yubing walked up to him and slowly crouched down, "Let finish what I can do before we leave, okay?"
Chen Cheng looked at Xia Yubing, imdiately understanding her aning, a gentle smile appeared on his face as he helped her up, "What are you always thinking about in that little head of yours? Your health is the most important right now. Those other things can wait for later."
Xia Yubing pouted slightly but did not insist anymore and followed Chen Cheng out.
On the way, Chen Cheng drove the car, much more cautiously than usual, occasionally glancing at Xia Yubing beside him.
Xia Yubing quietly looked out the window, her fingers unconsciously fiddling with the hem of her clothes, her heart filled with mixed feelings.
She felt joy for the possible arrival of a new life, yet worried about the uncertainties of the future.
Soon, they arrived at the hospital.
Chen Cheng parked the car and hurried to Xia Yubing’s side, carefully supporting her as they entered the hospital lobby.
The hospital was bustling, with the sll of disinfectant lingering in the air.
After registering, they sat on a bench outside the gynecology clinic, waiting.
Around them, so pregnant won and family mbers were quietly talking, sharing the joys and woes of pregnancy; others quietly looked at their dical reports, faces showing mixed expressions of happiness and worry.
Xia Yubing looked at the protruding bellies of those pregnant won, her eyes filled with a mix of envy and longing, and she nervously gripped Chen Cheng’s hand tighter.
Chen Cheng gently patted her hand, whispering, "Don’t worry, I’m here with you."
Finally, it was their turn.
Chen Cheng accompanied Xia Yubing into the consulting room, where they t a middle-aged female doctor.
She first asked Xia Yubing for so basic information, like the date of her last nstrual period, recent physical condition, etc.
Xia Yubing answered each question, her voice slightly trembling.
The doctor recorded her answers while comforting, "Don’t be nervous, this is just a preliminary examination."
Then, the doctor issued a series of test orders, including blood work and ultrasound.
Chen Cheng took the order and led Xia Yubing through various test rooms.
During the blood draw, Xia Yubing turned her head away in fear. Chen Cheng stood by her side, blocking her view with his hand, softly saying, "Don’t be afraid, it’ll be over in a mont."
After all the tests were done, they returned to the waiting area outside the gynecology clinic to wait for the results.
During this ti, Chen Cheng was restless like an ant on a hot pan. He paced back and forth in the corridor, his quick steps reflecting his inner anxiety; then he sat down again, tightly holding Xia Yubing’s hand, seemingly drawing so calming strength from her.
Xia Yubing, seeing his anxious deanor, felt a stir of warmth in her heart.
Even such significant matters in the past few days hadn’t caused Chen Cheng to panic, but now, he was deeply anxious because of her, letting Xia Yubing more firmly believe that Chen Cheng sincerely accepted and looked forward to the arrival of the child.
After a long wait, a nurse finally called Xia Yubing’s na.
They walked into the consulting room, the doctor looked at the examination results on the computer, "According to the results, you are indeed pregnant. Currently, all indicators are relatively normal. However, in the early stages of pregnancy, you should pay more attention to rest, avoid vigorous activities, and keep a balanced diet..."
Chen Cheng couldn’t hear the doctor’s words clearly anymore; his mind echoed only with the words "pregnant."
He hadn’t expected that his first child would co so suddenly. For him now, with wealth and a career, it was undoubtedly a glorious enhancent.
"Honey? Honey?" Xia Yubing called twice before pulling Chen Cheng back to the mont.
Chen Cheng’s lips curled in a smile, "Hmm?"
"The doctor just said to co for another check-up around the 15th of next month." Xia Yubing’s eyes also welled up with tears, her excitent and joy evident as a first-ti mother.
Chen Cheng smiled with a nod, "Okay, I’ll accompany you then."
Xia Yubing smiled too, caressing her own abdon, silently speaking to the baby, "Baby, welco to the world."
...
...
Elsewhere, at Jing Capital.
Tong Jialu’s days were not as leisurely and comfortable as Xia Yubing’s.
After Chen Cheng agreed to fund assistance to the other nine institutions, Tong Jialu’s workload surged, and her keyboard was nearly smoking from the intensive typing.
On one hand, she had to fully coordinate the lending processes of the nine institutions, carefully verification each step to ensure the funds were accurately and tily disbursed;
On the other hand, she had to be extrely vigilant and ticulous in reviewing every di spent out, fearing a slight mishap like accidentally adding an extra zero could lead to unimaginable consequences.
In her heart, she also harbored another heavy concern: the safety of Xia Yubing.
