Chapter 60: Chapter 60: Pregnant
He bent down quickly, wanting to check if there was a wound, but everything looked fine with no sign of any injury.
He furrowed his brow, examining Shen Heyu.
She lay on the bed, her mouth slightly open, her gaze hazy, and her face flushed red, seeming in pain yet dazed. Sweat had dampened her hair, sticking it against her temples.
He leaned down, speaking in an uncharacteristically gentle tone, “Tell , where does your body feel uncomfortable?” Since there were no external injuries, it must be an internal issue.
Shen Heyu hadn’t expected him to ask about her well-being; her stomach indeed felt uncomfortable. She thought he would leave as usual after finishing and then abandon her to deal with it herself.
Seeing that she remained silent, Pei Yansi’s gaze grew colder, “Speak?”
...
“My stomach doesn’t feel very good…” she touched her lower abdon.
Pei Yansi picked her up, rinsed her off in the bathroom, and then placed her in the car, intending to go to the hospital.
By that ti, it was already late, and Shen Heyu didn’t say much, simply letting him take her to the hospital.
Once inside, the doctor asked about the location of the pain and what had been done before it started, then imdiately handed them an ultrasound requisition, looking at Pei Yansi with a gaze that mixed admiration and ambiguity.
Shen Heyu felt very uncomfortable due to the doctor’s expression; she took a stealthy glance at the man beside her, only to see him as composed as ever, as if he hadn’t noticed, and led her to do the ultrasound.
They used a special passage and didn’t have to wait. Shen Heyu hadn’t used the restroom since leaving ho, so as soon as she went in, she directly lay down on the examination bed.
Pei Yansi stood outside the curtain, emotionless—unconcerned, revealing no feelings to anyone.
Just then, a text ssage tone sounded sharply on his phone.
He checked his phone and found a ssage from Bai Sheng’er, asking him to co and accompany her. Thinking that she was still living in the apartnt Shen Fanshuang used to occupy, Pei Yansi didn’t think much. Without even saying a word to Shen Heyu, he walked away.
Shen Heyu saw the figure outside walking out and didn’t ask more; it seed to have beco the usual practice.
But she still felt a faint sense of loss.
At that mont, she heard the examining doctor say, “You’re pregnant, three weeks in, didn’t you know?”
“What?” Shen Heyu couldn’t believe it, her eyes widening in shock.
“Yes, look for yourself, the embryo has already appeared. Being pregnant, you should be more careful in that regard; otherwise, who else will feel the pain if not you? Go get so dicine and make sure you take it regularly; there’s no serious problem,” the doctor said.
Shen Heyu still felt bewildered.
She couldn’t believe she had beco a mother so suddenly; she looked at her flat stomach, just three weeks in, with no visible signs. She reached out and touched her abdon where, unequivocally, there was a tiny life she shared with Pei Yansi.
Only, Pei Yansi had left just minutes earlier.
Her eyes felt slightly sore. If he knew about the child, would he keep her around because of his mother? If that were the case, wouldn’t she never be able to leave him?
Yet, she rembered Shen Jiangli once ntioned he could help…
Seeing her expression, the doctor felt a bit odd, but realizing the child’s father had disappeared without knowledge of when, he sowhat understood and said nothing, simply handing her the prescription.
Shen Heyu took the prescription but didn’t go to get the dicine. She didn’t want to keep the child; she wanted a divorce.
She just thought to let it be.
She walked outside the hospital, and it had already turned completely dark, the bustling city alive with traffic. She hailed a taxi by the roadside to head ho.
On the way back, her stomach still hurt. She held her abdon, leaning against the car seat.
Soon, she arrived at the Pei Family’s old mansion.
As she entered, she saw the old lady hadn’t gone to sleep and was sitting on the sofa in the living room.
The old lady saw her and asked, “Heyu, where did you and Yansi go?”
Shen Heyu replied, “We just went out for a walk.”
“Where is he then?”
Shen Heyu didn’t speak, not knowing what to say. She didn’t like to tattle on others, especially since this wasn’t the first or the second ti it had happened.
Seeing her reaction, the old lady understood and asked her to go back to her room to rest first. Then she turned and called Pei Yansi, scolding him non-stop over the phone.
Two hours later, Pei Yansi was scolded back ho.
Reluctantly, when he arrived it was already eleven o’clock at night. He pushed open the door to Shen Heyu’s bedroom. The room was dark, the soft moonlight outside illuminating the curves of her body lying on the bed.
He closed the door and didn’t turn on the lights. Using the moonlight, he walked over to the bed, casually sat down, took off his suit jacket and placed it on the headboard, then looked at Shen Heyu on the bed and asked, “Missed so much to co back, what for?”
Shen Heyu hadn’t fallen asleep, but upon hearing his words, she didn’t feel like responding, so she pretended to be asleep.
Unexpectedly, the man leaned close, bent down, and accurately pinched her chin in the darkness, turning her face to his as he said, “I know you’re not asleep. Didn’t you want to co back?”
“Back and now pretending to sleep?”
Shen Heyu, seeing this, didn’t pretend anymore. She opened her eyes, and in the dark, looking at his blurred facial features, she said, “Did you let her move into Shen Fanshuang’s house?”
Bai Sheng’er had boasted about this in the elevator; just a glance at that bunch of keys told her they were from the house her sister had lived in with Pei Yansi before.
Pei Yansi’s eyes grew cold, “Is that sothing you should care about?”
“Why can’t I care?” Shen Heyu retorted strongly. “That’s my sister too. She’s gone, and as her elder sister, I have the right to control her forr ho. You could buy Bai Sheng’er any house in the country, but why let her live in that one?”
Her suddenly taking control of her own affairs had surprised Pei Yansi, and amidst the surprise, he also felt dissatisfied, but he hadn’t expected her to insist on speaking up.
After hearing her words, he gave a cold laugh, rcilessly stabbing at her heart, “Let tell you, no real elder sister would ever trap her own younger sister like that. The last person in this world who has the right to manage Shen Fanshuang’s affairs is you.”
Shen Heyu’s heart indeed was fiercely torn by his words.
For so many years since Shen Fanshuang’s death, no one had been willing to believe her, and sadly, she couldn’t find any trace of evidence.
She turned over, her back facing Pei Yansi, and choked up, “Since you’ve taken her to that place, she must hold a place in your heart comparable to Fanshuang, right?”
“Then, can we get divorced? Let her be Mrs. Pei.”
Pei Yansi sneered, looking at her figure facing away from him, feeling irritated, as if a cat had viciously scratched inside his heart, not itchy, not painful, but just unbearably annoying.
He took out a cigarette from his pocket.
Shen Heyu heard him opening the cigarette box, and rembering she was pregnant, quickly said, “Could you not smoke?”
