After seeing off a few leaders, Bai Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Bai Jingshan followed his daughter without taking his eyes off her.
He knew that his daughter ca to Capital City for the competition, so he specially ca to inspect the business in Capital City.
Otherwise, such a coincidence would never have happened.
Bai Xiao turned around and slled the alcohol scent on Yu Shaohua, felt her chest churning, and imdiately rushed into the restroom covering her mouth.
Yu Shaohua and Bai Jingshan exchanged a bewildered glance.
Yu Shaohua sensitively sniffed himself, didn’t notice any odor!
Bai Jingshan’s gaze was unfriendly.
Soon, Bai Xiao finally ca out.
Bai Jingshan diligently handed his daughter a glass of warm water. The windows in the room had already been opened, the ssy cups and plates on the table had disappeared, and the whole room was filled with the scent of air freshener.
Bai Xiao pushed the glass back into Bai Jingshan’s hands, turned around, and went back into the restroom.
Bai Jingshan stood outside anxiously listening to Bai Xiao retching inside.
Anxiety filled his heart.
Even plain water could be a problem!
Could his daughter have so illness?
Several possible ailnts flashed through Bai Jingshan’s mind instantly.
Gastritis, intestinal diseases, each one imagined with severe consequences.
"What’s wrong with her?"
Bai Jingshan cautiously asked Yu Shaohua.
Yu Shaohua looked utterly puzzled.
"You’re her father, even you don’t know! How would I know?"
He just felt sothing was off, hadn’t yet had an epiphany.
Sothing’s just not right.
"I’m her father, true, but you’re the doctor! Could your title as a doctor be fake?"
Bai Jingshan retorted to Yu Shaohua, annoyed.
"I am a doctor, but vomiting can be caused by a wide range of issues! Many ailnts can result in vomiting, such as gastritis, or pregnancy..."
Both of them halted at that mont.
Pregnancy!
"Could it be... pregnancy?"
Joy flashed across Bai Jingshan’s face.
His daughter had been married for several years without having any children, and ever since he acknowledged his daughter, Bai Jingshan had been genuinely anxious.
If they kept waiting, Bai Xiao would beco an older pri-aged expectant mother.
What on earth would they do when that happened!
After urging Bai Xiao a few tis, Bai Xiao just wouldn’t give a straight answer, always brushing him off.
Yu Shaohua was equally pleased; if Bai Xiao had a child, his sister’s lineage would be carried on.
The two exchanged glances, each seeing the surprise in the other’s eyes.
Bai Xiao walked out, her face a bit pale. The doctor had told her there would be symptoms of morning sickness, but she didn’t expect it to be this intense.
Are all pregnant won like this?
She couldn’t help but think of Yu Shaoya, back then her own mother had to pretend she wasn’t pregnant, had to endure such morning sickness yet continue working in the fields.
How exhausting that must have been.
Suddenly she felt like crying.
As soon as she stepped out, she was grabbed by Bai Jingshan and dragged towards the door.
"Daughter, let’s go, we’re going to the hospital, you need to get a proper check-up."
Yu Shaohua also tailing behind carrying Bai Xiao’s bag, "Yes! You should get a proper check-up."
Bai Xiao stopped walking.
"There’s no need to go to the hospital, I’m a doctor, what would I do at the hospital! I’m not going! I know my own body."
"You child, you can’t think like this, true you are a doctor, but you’re a surgeon, your forte is acupuncture in Traditional Chinese dicine, haven’t you heard doctors don’t treat themselves."
"Exactly! Don’t be reckless."
"Dad! Uncle! I’m really fine, I know my body."
Bai Xiao felt helpless.
These two were trying to force a duck up a tree.
"What do you know, look at yourself, vomiting like this. No, you must go to the hospital." Bai Jingshan wouldn’t take no for an answer, if his daughter was pregnant that would be sothing significant.
They wouldn’t feel assured until it was confird.
"This vomiting is normal, the doctor said it would be better after three months."
"Bai Xiao, are you hiding sothing from us?"
Once the two heard this, they understood.
Bai Jingshan pulled Bai Xiao onto the sofa, pressed her to sit, and handed her a glass of warm water.
"Speak! What’s going on with you?"
Yu Shaohua’s eyes were gleaming! Waiting for Bai Xiao to say what they wanted to hear.
"Dad! Uncle, you’re asking questions you already know! Don’t you know what’s wrong with ?"
Bai Xiao was both angry and amused.
Their intentions were so obvious.
Couldn’t she tell?
"We don’t know!"
The two answered in unison.
"Alright, alright! I give up, I am pregnant, already four weeks."
Bai Jingshan and Yu Shaohua embraced warmly, both were moved to tears.
The Bai Family has descendants now.
Shao Ya has descendants now.
"Why didn’t you say so earlier? Had we not pressured you, you probably wouldn’t have said anything. This is such a joyous occasion." Bai Jingshan complained while pulling his daughter to look her over.
Bai Xiao was amused by their concern.
"I only found out yesterday too, the vomiting scared An Zhiyuan, we found out it was pregnancy after being taken to the hospital."
Knowing they cared for her deeply.
"That An really, why didn’t he tell us imdiately about such a thing? We are your kin, imagine how happy Dad would be to know."
"Yes, An Zhiyuan is too much, if your grandparents knew, they would be overjoyed to the point of jumping. You know how your mom is a concern in their hearts, with you having a child, imagine how happy they’d be."
The two kept denouncing.
"Also! Since you’re pregnant, why go out to eat seafood? Do you think I don’t know—I saw your nu, all lobsters and abalone, now you can’t even handle the sll, and yet you eat? Seafood is cooling, not good for you and the baby.
And you even drink? My goodness.
You can’t be without soone taking care of you.
I’m telling you, starting tomorrow, your dad is responsible for your three als a day, they must be healthy."
Yu Shaohua nudged Bai Jingshan, "Yes, your dad’s right, you’re in your early pregnancy! Don’t ss around, I’ll call your grandmother for a list of pregnancy taboos, you need to go through it carefully.
And we need to start preparing things for the baby, I really have to call your grandmother, you’re just not giving us peace of mind."
Bai Xiao slumped onto the sofa, collapsing like a pile of soft dough.
Oh dear heaven.
Her dad and uncle are even more nagging than Tang Sanzang.
The two, however, didn’t mind her, kept fussing and arranging plans.
After Yu Shohua was done with the call, Bai Jingshan had already draped a thin blanket over his daughter, who had dozed off on the couch.
The two simultaneously fell silent.
One went to close the windows while the other adjusted the air conditioner to just the right twenty-six degrees.
Bai Jingshan asked a waiter for a pillow, tucking it beneath Bai Xiao’s head.
Bai Xiao turned over, wrapped in the blanket, continued sleeping.
Watching his daughter sleep soundly, Bai Jingshan felt a surge of bittersweet emotions.
He had never taken care of her for a single day.
In the future, Bai Xiao’s child! As a grandparent, he must take good care of them, so Bai Xiao wouldn’t need to worry at all.
Shao Ya, did you know? Our daughter is going to have a child.
I will take good care of them.
