Chapter 1605: Chapter 1607: The World Has Beco Mystical
“I’ll take it.” ng Xinian coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and said to Chiang Songhai, “Grandpa, Little should know about this sooner or later. We can’t hide it from her, right? Besides, Grandma’s health now… Little has a good relationship with Doctor Chen Baoshen, the most famous doctor in the Capital City. If he could check on Grandma and prescribe a health regin, wouldn’t that be perfect?”
“But, but this…” Chiang Songhai’s hands were at a loss, not knowing where to place them.
But just as ng Xinian said, this matter would have to be revealed to Chiang Xiao sooner or later.
Having ng Xinian know about it had one advantage: he could inform Little, sparing them from having to do it themselves.
Otherwise, Chiang Songhai really wouldn’t know how to bring it up!
ng Xinian answered the phone. As soon as Chiang Xiao heard his voice, she sighed in relief, “Thank heavens, you’re back! How’s Grandma? What did the doctor say?”
“Uh, Little…”
ng Xinian took the initiative to answer the call, but now he realized that saying it outright wasn’t so simple.
Hearing his hesitant tone, Chiang Xiao’s heart suddenly sank.
ng Xinian was always direct and straightforward, saying things as they were, never beating around the bush or hesitating like this. Unless… Grandma’s condition was really bad.
But, how could that be?
Over the years, she had always been helping to keep Grandpa and Grandma’s health in check. Their health had gotten increasingly better in the past two years—they hadn’t even caught a minor cold, looking almost younger with each passing day. How could there suddenly be a serious illness?
“Brother Xinian, what did the doctor say?” Chiang Xiao took a deep breath, her voice sinking, “Tell . I’ve ntally prepared myself. Don’t worry—no matter what kind of illness it is, I’ll do my best to cure Grandma…”
Hearing this, ng Xinian realized she had misunderstood.
He quickly said, “It’s not what you think. Grandma isn’t ill.”
Chiang Xiao was startled, “Not ill?”
Then why are you speaking so solemnly and hesitating?
She almost choked on her breath.
“She’s not ill, but… there’s sothing going on.”
“ng Xinian!” Chiang Xiao couldn’t take it anymore. “Could you just say it straight? What is it? Are you still ng Xinian? Or are you an impostor?”
ng Xinian’s face turned dark.
This mont of hesitation, and now he’s being accused of being fake?
Fine, he’d just spill it out—what was there to be afraid of?
Chiang Xiao was so vexed that she picked up her teacup and took a big gulp, trying to calm herself. But as soon as the tea reached her lips, she heard his words.
“The doctor said… Grandma is pregnant.”
“Pfft!”
Chiang Xiao sprayed out the tea she was drinking, coughing violently as she choked. After the spray, she began coughing uncontrollably again.
“Cough cough cough!”
Hearing the commotion on her end, ng Xinian grew concerned. “Little, what’s wrong? Did you choke?”
In the living room, Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao were listening to the noise on his side. When they heard that statent, the two exchanged glances, seeing mutual awkwardness and embarrassnt in each other’s eyes.
Was Little reacting extrely strongly?
Was she angry?
Was she feeling ashad because of them?
Standing nearby, Chu Liang also overheard ng Xinian’s statent. His eyes widened in shock.
In the Capital City, Chiang Xiao was coughing so hard that tears stread from her eyes.
She was certain she hadn’t misheard.
Grandma is pregnant.
ng Xinian had said it, and he wouldn’t joke about sothing like this.
So, Grandma really was… pregnant?
Chiang Xiao felt like the whole world suddenly turned surreal.
There had been so monts in the past when she noticed things differed from her previous life, tis when she distinctly felt she’d returned anew. But none of those monts were as shocking as now—this was like she’d completely drifted off the trajectory of her past life.
