Chapter 452: Chapter 452 Postpone the Wedding
In the afternoon, Moon Gift Villa was buzzing with people.
“Sis-in-law, this is really a double celebration.” Jiang You said joyfully, hugging her arm.
However, the happiest of all was little Su Yimo.
“Mommy, will I really have a little sister soon?”
The little one blinked his big eyes, his little face full of excitent.
Su He picked him up and said, “We don’t know yet if it’s a sister or a brother.”
Su Baobao scrunched his small face, “Can we make it a sister?”
Su He laughed at his words, “Mommy doesn’t have that ability.”
Just as she finished speaking, Su Baobao, who had been in her arms, was suddenly picked up by soone.
“Oh my, Daddy, why are you picking up?”
“Mommy can’t carry you anymore. Now that Mommy has a little sister in her belly, we have to be careful.”
Su Baobao nodded in agreent imdiately, “Okay, Daddy, I understand.”
“Brother, aren’t you being too cautious? Sis-in-law is only two weeks pregnant, the baby hasn’t even ford yet. Do we really need to be so careful?” Jiang You said.
Jing Xuan comnted leisurely, “Youzi, you just don’t understand. Your brother is showing his love for your sis-in-law.”
Jing Xuan’s words weren’t sothing she could deny.
But she still felt her brother was making a big deal out of nothing.
“Wait until you’re pregnant and see if Beiyan is just as nervous. Compared to your brother, he might be even more so.” Jing Xuan said.
Jiang You: “…”
——
The next day.
Old Mr. and Mrs. Su arrived from Beijing to Yue City.
“Grandpa, Grandma, why did you specifically co here?”
Su He was surprised to see the old couple.
Old Mr. Su said, “Your grandmother was worried about you and insisted on coming to see you.”
Old Madam Su retorted, “You old man, it was you who urged to co, worried about Susu. How did it beco insisting to co? Aren’t you turning the tables?”
Su He looked at the old couple and smiled helplessly, “Grandpa, Grandma, no need to bicker, I understand. Since you’re here, just stay and relax.”
At this mont, Su Baobao ran in from the courtyard.
“Great-grandpa, great-great-grandma.”
“Oh, great-great-grandma’s sweet baby, co, let great-great-grandma hug you.”
Su Baobao snuggled into Old Madam Su’s embrace, rubbing happily.
“Great-great-grandma, I missed you.”
Old Madam Su said cheerfully, “Great-great-grandma missed you very much too.”
“Co, let great-great-grandma see if you’ve been eating well lately.”
“I have, great-great-grandma, I’ve grown taller a lot.”
“Really?”
“Yes, great-great-grandma, see.”
Su Baobao twirled in front of her as he spoke.
Old Madam Su said, “Good, good, you have grown a lot indeed.”
Then, Su Baobao looked at Old Mr. Su and said, “Great-grandpa, I missed you too.”
With that, he snuggled into the old man’s embrace, hugging him tightly.
His strategy was all about sharing the affection equally.
“Good, good, dear child, great-grandpa also missed you.”
“Great-great-grandma, great-grandpa, I’m going to have a sister soon.” Su Baobao said excitedly.
He’s been saying this to almost everyone he ets.
“Little rascal, how do you know it’s a sister and not a brother?” Old Madam Su joked.
Su Baobao replied assertively with his baby voice, “Great-great-grandma, Daddy said it will definitely be a sister.”
The old couple laughed heartily a few tis.
“Good, good, it’s a sister.”
Su He was already feeling a headache, having two people at ho constantly talking about ‘sister, sister.'”
No wonder they’re father and son.
…
In the afternoon, Old Madam Jiang also arrived.
The three elders gathered together, chatting all afternoon.
Su He felt that just being pregnant turned into such a parade.
But she knew everyone was concerned, so she didn’t mind.
Throughout the following week, as she commuted to work, soone was always there to pick her up.
Moreover, he didn’t allow her to work overti, calling promptly.
Sotis when she was in the laboratory without her phone, he’d have soone from the research institute call her.
She didn’t like working overti, so she always left work on ti.
But sotis in the lab, she couldn’t control the ti.
The nature of experints differed slightly from working in the hospital.
Lan Yan opened the laboratory door, walked in, and found Su He: “Boss, Master is here to pick you up.”
Su He was sitting at the experint table at the ti.
Without looking up, she said, “Let him wait.”
Lan Yan: “But Master said you should leave early, don’t get tired.”
“Tell him I’m not tired.”
“Uh, okay.”
Lan Yan responded and turned to leave.
Soon afterwards, she returned.
“Anything else?” Su He asked.
Lan Yan replied honestly, “Boss, Master said he’d give you another thirty minutes, no more.”
Su He: “…”
An hour later.
Su He slowly walked out from the laboratory.
When she opened the office door, she saw soone sitting in the chair inside.
She walked over and explained, “The experint is nearing the end, so I have to supervise it, which takes ti. If you’re busy, you don’t have to pick up. I have Fei Xu and Lan Yan with .”
Jiang Yan stood up when he saw her enter, looked at her and said, “I’m not busy.”
Then he asked, “Are you tired? Are you feeling uncomfortable today?”
Su He shook her head, “No.”
“You really don’t have to be so nervous, I’m fine, it’s just being pregnant.”
He asked this question almost every day.
She reached out her hands, held his face and rubbed it, “Relax a little. I’m starting to feel like you’re the pregnant one, not .”
Actually, Jiang Yan wasn’t so nervous initially, but on the third day, he checked online about so pregnancy precautions and the reactions throughout the term. He also accidentally read so other pregnant won’s birthing experiences, which made him regret it and beco more anxious.
“Stop always Googling and reading random articles. If you have ti, focus your energy on the company instead. Plus, this isn’t my first birth, I have experience. I’m a doctor myself, so you really don’t need to worry too much.” Su He advised earnestly.
She understood his cautiousness.
It’s all due to the fear of sothing going wrong.
She said what needed to be said and didn’t elaborate further.
“Alright, I’ll change my clothes, then we’ll go ho for dinner. I’m hungry.”
——
Ti flew by, and a month passed in the blink of an eye.
April’s wind caressed gently, warm and refreshing.
But these few days, it rained continuously, and the city was constantly swept with rain.
The morning sky was filled with rain and fog, damp and gloomy.
“Sis-in-law, you’re vomiting so severely!”
Jiang You happened to be free today and ca to Moon Gift Villa early in the morning.
As soon as she sat down and chatted with Su He for a few monts, she covered her mouth and rushed to the bathroom.
She quickly followed her and saw her gagging over the sink.
At this ti, a servant skillfully brought over so water.
Jiang You patted her on the back.
She vomited for almost twenty minutes before feeling a bit better.
“Here, have a sip of water to rinse your mouth.”
She handed her the cup.
“I rember when you were pregnant with Su Baobao, you didn’t vomit this much.”
Though she suffered so hardships when having Su Baobao, compared to this kind of nausea, it’s even more uncomfortable now.
After rinsing her mouth, Su He rested for a while before speaking: “The body’s constitution changes; there’s no absolutes with these things.”
Jiang You, seeing her eyes reddened from vomiting, said tenderly, “Being pregnant is really tough. If my brother saw this, he’d be worried sick.”
Su He only recently started having such severe reactions, and Jiang Yan doesn’t know about it yet.
Because she’s careful not to let him see her vomiting.
And she also told the servants at ho not to tell him yet.
“Your brother doesn’t know yet, so don’t tell him about this.”
“Huh? Really? My brother doesn’t know, and you managed to hide it?”
Jiang You couldn’t help but admire her, knowing how strict she must have been under her brother’s watchful eye to keep it so secretive.
“I make sure to avoid him when I’m about to vomit.”
Recently, Jiang Yan hasn’t been sticking around her as closely.
Jiang You asked, “How long do you think you’ll be vomiting like this?”
Su He replied, “It’s hard to say.”
“Isn’t there any way to stop it?”
“There is, but it doesn’t work very well for .”
Jiang You frowned, “If it were throwing up every day like this, I couldn’t handle it.”
Suddenly, she felt a bit scared of being pregnant.
Su He looked at her and said, “Don’t overthink it; everyone’s body is different. So people don’t have any issues, while others are like .”
Jiang You: “Not overthinking is impossible.”
Su He: “…”
“Maybe you shouldn’t visit anymore,” she said, “In case you change your mind about having kids, that would be my fault.”
Jiang You said, “No, I still want to have kids, but that doesn’t stop from being scared.” “…”
Afternoon.
Lan Yan ca to the house.
“Boss, are you feeling any better?” Lan Yan noticed her complexion wasn’t great, “Maybe it’s best if I go by myself. You stay ho and rest.”
Su He shook her head, “I’m fine, I just vomited again earlier. I’ll feel better after resting a bit in the car.”
Seeing that she insisted, Lan Yan didn’t say anything further.
They were going to et with a pharmaceutical company to discuss a patent.
This process is likely to be lengthy, and she was a bit worried about Su He’s health and whether she’d be able to handle it.
“Boss, you can take a nap in the car; it’s over an hour’s drive.”
“Okay.”
Over the past few days, she visibly lost weight.
After a while, Su He suddenly asked, “Lan Yan, have you and Doctor Xiao set a date for your wedding?”
Lan Yan responded, “Yes, it’s set for November, the weather won’t be too hot or cold.”
Su He thought for a mont and said, “That’s the month of my due date, I hope there’s no overlap. I really don’t want to miss your wedding.”
Lan Yan said, “Should I talk to Xiao Si and postpone the wedding?”
Su He chuckled, “That’s not necessary, I’m not that important. Besides, if Doctor Xiao finds out, he’d be upset. You know how he is; I don’t want to annoy him.”
Lan Yan agreed; if she actually suggested postponing the wedding, he might really get upset.
He’s already sowhat impatient about waiting until November.
But Mrs. Xiao consulted with soone for the dates and chose November, which is why it was decided for that month.
Honestly, she wasn’t particular about the timing, but the elders care about such things, so she had to go along with it.
After a while, Fei Xu said, “By the way, Young Madam, your first prenatal check-up is scheduled for 2:30 PM the day after tomorrow.”
“Okay, got it, thank you,”
Because she hasn’t had ti to make appointnts recently, she had to rely on them for help.
…
The negotiation lasted over three hours.
By the ti it ended, it was already past six o’clock.
They stood in the lobby of the Jiang Group’s building.
“Professor Su, I hope we have a successful cooperation going forward.”
“No problem, President Jiang.”
They shook hands.
At this ti, Lan Yan said, “Boss, Master is here.”
Everyone looked over.
President Jiang smiled and said, “President Jiang is so considerate to co pick up Professor Su personally.”
Jiang Yan, with his long, slender legs, walked over.
He greeted Jiang De, “President Jiang.”
Jiang De respectfully greeted back, “Hello, President Jiang.”
Then Jiang Yan looked at Su He, “Let’s go ho, are you hungry?”
Su He nodded.
Then she turned to Jiang De, “President Jiang, we’ll be off now. Lan Yan will follow up with you on the remaining matters.”
Jiang De said, “Alright, let’s have a al together another day if you have ti.”
With that, the group left.
In the car, Su He looked at him and asked, “Why did you co?”
Jiang Yan: “It was on the way, just passing through.”
“Hmm?” Su He raised an eyebrow, clearly skeptical: “Are you sure you were just passing by and didn’t co here on purpose? Or how long have you been waiting here?”
From the front seat, Jiang Feng chid in, “To the Young Madam, Master has been waiting in the car ever since you entered the Jiang building. But he wasn’t just idling, he was working from the car.”
No sooner had he spoken, than a sharp gaze shot over.
He quickly turned his head and said no more.
“I heard from Fei Xu that your negotiation would take several hours, and since I didn’t have anything pressing to do, I just ca over to wait,” the man explained.
Su He reached out to hug his arm, then rested her head on his shoulder.
She said, “Sitting for three hours is quite tiring, my back is aching, could you give a rub?”
As soon as she said that, the man’s hand was already massaging her back with just the right amount of pressure.
anwhile.
After parting with Su He, Lan Yan headed to the hospital to pick up Xiao Si from work.
When she arrived at the hospital, he wasn’t finished yet.
Coincidentally, Lu Zhenyu was still there too, so she went to discuss sothing with him.
After their chat, Lu Zhenyu suddenly asked, “By the way, Lan Yan, I heard from my brother that you and Doctor Xiao have set a wedding date?”
Lan Yan: “Yes, we’ll send you an invitation.”
She didn’t have many friends, and thus wouldn’t be inviting many people.
Most attendees might be Xiao Si’s acquaintances.
Lu Zhenyu remarked, “I never expected even you to get married. When I first t you, you were so cold and not talkative, and now in such a short ti, you are getting married. And to Doctor Xiao, no less. I couldn’t even imagine it back then. I also feel like you’ve changed, you’re not as distant anymore, and you smile more often. It seems Doctor Xiao has really influenced you a lot.”
“When Doctor Xiao was so persistent in pursuing the head nurse, I thought they’d end up together, but to think you’d beco his wife, it’s unbelievable.”
Lan Yan: “…”
Realizing his faux pas, Lu Zhenyu quickly apologized, “Sorry, I shouldn’t have brought up the head nurse.”
“Oh, did you know the head nurse is also getting married soon?” he suddenly added.
Lan Yan was slightly surprised to hear this.
She shook her head, “No, I didn’t know.”
