“Isn’t this a bit inappropriate?”
“What are you thinking about!? I just want to check the surgical incision!”
Elder Pei responded with an “Oh” and didn’t make a fuss. He lifted his shirt for Shen Zhongshuang to take a look.
“Perfect! This incision is just perfect! My sister is amazing!”
After all, this was Chang Yue’s surgery!
Elder Pei’s wife pushed the door open, only to see Shen Zhongshuang staring intently at Elder Pei’s chest while even reaching out to touch it occasionally.
“What’s wrong with the old man’s heart?”
“Oh, nothing, I’m just checking the surgery incision for him.”
Worried about alarming the elderly couple, Shen Zhongshuang reluctantly averted his gaze.
Elder Pei chuckled and said, “What about that girl Mimi? It’s been some time since I’ve seen her. You know, I originally planned for her to have a talk with Ah Jue, but who knew she’d end up being snatched away by you, kid.”
When Su Mi came up, Shen Zhongshuang looked a little uneasy.
“I don’t know what’s going on lately. She keeps arguing with me, and her mood doesn’t seem very good.”
“Oh, young people—little quarrels here and there are normal!”
In an attempt to comfort Shen Zhongshuang, Elder Pei turned to the recently-arrived Qingwu. “Hey, Qingwu, do you and Ah Jue ever argue?”
Qingwu answered honestly, “We never argue.”
Firstly, their personalities just didn’t lend themselves to arguments.
When conflicts arose, considering their tempers, they’d more likely spar it out somewhere in private!
Secondly, no matter the situation, Pei Jue never seemed to get angry with Qingwu!
Forget arguing, with the limited amount of time they had together, they treasured every moment of each other’s company.
Shen Zhongshuang felt even more attacked!
“I don’t know what’s wrong! Like the other night, Mimi wanted cup noodles. I made them for her, and she said they didn’t taste right. Then she said I didn’t love her and started crying!”
“I cleaned up her room for her and did her laundry, and she said I looked down on her for being useless and cried again!”
“She wanted overripe bananas—where am I supposed to find those?! After much effort, I finally found a fruit shop selling them. The shopkeeper even thought I was insane! Then when I brought them back, Mimi just threw up and accused me of abusing her…”
Shen Zhongshuang had always been doting and accommodating when it came to Su Mi.
But with situations like these, he was at a loss!
Qingwu rubbed her temples.
It seemed Shen Zhongshuang hadn’t figured out what was going on with Su Mi.
However, Elder Pei’s wife furrowed her brows and said, “Given her behavior, this isn’t just PMS mood swings. It’s more like hormonal fluctuations during pregnancy. You’re a doctor, and you don’t understand pregnant women?”
“I’m not an OB-GYN…”
The words caught in Shen Zhongshuang’s throat mid-sentence!
He knew Su Mi’s cycle timing very well!
It wasn’t the time for that, plus her mood had been a rollercoaster lately, and she hadn’t had much of an appetite either.
He’d even been worried it was some stomach or intestinal issue and was planning to take her for a gastroscopy!
Seeing Shen Zhongshuang frozen in place, Elder Pei’s wife shook her head and sneered.
“You idiot! How on earth did you manage to get a girlfriend? You don’t even realize you’re about to become a father!”
“I-I-I… Qingwu, y-you… this-this-this…”
Shen Zhongshuang started stammering!
Qingwu laid out her earlier observations.
“Considering what you’ve mentioned recently, it does seem likely. But you should still go get Mimi checked out to confirm.”
“I’ll go right now!”
Shen Zhongshuang rushed out the door like a whirlwind, only to return shortly after to hand a medicine box to Elder Pei.
Seeing the excitement on Shen Zhongshuang’s face, Elder Pei couldn’t help but chuckle!
“I never imagined Old Shen’s grandson would overtake me in this race. That old geezer always manages to beat me at everything.”
Picking up on the underlying meaning in Elder Pei’s words, Qingwu chuckled softly.
“Elder Pei, Yan Luan is pretty adorable too.”
Speaking of his great-grandchild, Elder Pei’s face lit up. “Adorable indeed, but I also want to see the child you and Ah Jue will have. You’re both so good-looking, the child would surely be both smart and beautiful…”
As the sentence trailed off, Elder Pei sighed imperceptibly.
He simply didn’t have much time left.
Elder Pei’s wife masked the sadness in her eyes with a dismissive eye-roll.
“Why are you saying things like that and making the kids sad? Watch out, or Qingwu and Ah Jue’s kid won’t visit your grave in the future!”
“That won’t do, Qingwu, remember to bring your child to come visit me in the future!”
Qingwu felt a pang of sadness and nodded in agreement.
…
At the Black Dragon Gang’s headquarters entrance.
Boss Long spotted Shen Zhongshuang coming from afar and greeted him with an ingratiating smile.
“Second Young Master Shen! Our Second Miss is inside. Did you two argue again?”
Ever since Boss Long had been threatened by Shen Zhongshuang with vasectomy surgery, he acted like a mouse cowering before a cat every time he saw him.
Though exuding a fearsome and intimidating exterior, Shen Zhongshuang paid no mind to the thoughts hiding beneath.
After all, he had already steeled himself to ensure this “mouse” would have no chance to harm Su Mi!
Boss Long led Shen Zhongshuang into the Black Dragon Gang, pointing to a room upstairs.
“The Second Miss has been cooped up in there sleeping the past few days. She’s not eating, not going to the boxing gym next door. I could tell her spirits weren’t right, so I assumed, heh, she’d probably had another argument with you.”
He probed inquisitively, “I even thought Second Young Master might be planning to break up with the Second Miss…”
Shen Zhongshuang gave him a cold glare.
“Put those thoughts to rest. I’ll never break up with Mimi.”
“Ah, Second Young Master, you’ve misunderstood…”
Shen Zhongshuang shot him another warning look, then strode upstairs and knocked on the door.
“Mimi? I’m coming in, okay?”
There was no response from within. Growing anxious, Shen Zhongshuang clenched his teeth and forcefully turned the doorknob, bursting the door open!
Inside, he saw Su Mi lying on the bed, deeply asleep, her cheeks flushed. When he touched her forehead, the heat under his hand was burning hot!
“Damn it!”
He scooped Su Mi into his arms and carried her out, placing her in the car and driving straight to the hospital!
…
Beijing, Qiao Xi Hospital.
Shen Zhongshuang had just arrived with Su Mi when he ran into Qingwu, who was about to head upstairs to look for Chen Jianhong.
Without a word, he grabbed Qingwu by the arm and pulled her along!
“Qingwu, help me out here!”
Ten minutes later.
After completing a comprehensive check-up on Su Mi, Qingwu stood and removed her face mask.
“Second Brother, Mimi has a fever and is indeed pregnant. At this stage, medications could affect the baby, so you should focus on reducing her fever through physical means first.”
Inside the room, Shen Zhongshuang was so anxious he was pacing in circles!
“Alright, you take care of Mimi for me for a bit. I’ll go make a call to Mom and Dad in the hallway!”
Something this major had to be shared with the Shen Family.
More importantly, he needed to inform them he was planning to get married!
As soon as he called Zuo Wanjun, he was met with a barrage of scolding!
“Finally remembering to call home?! How long has it been? Might as well consider the hospital your new home!”
“You didn’t even bring Mimi back for a meal. Are you messing around with some nurse at the hospital instead?”
“I’m warning you, if you ever cheat on Mimi, your mother will beat you to death!”
Shen Zhongshuang pressed on his forehead.
Then he dropped the bombshell!
“Mom, I’m getting married!”
