C72

Drowsy into the night.

After showering, Lu Qinan secretly checked in the bathroom again. The pregnancy test stick still showed two bars, but she suddenly started to panic, and quickly threw it into the trash can.

She subconsciously tightened her fingers, her eyes slightly raised as she saw a figure standing on the balcony, smoking a cigarette.

Gu Zhongshen was dressed in a loose black robe, his tall and straight body lined up to the side with his back facing her, as though he was smoking, and the fog rose up in spirals, but was quickly dispersed by the cold wind.

Lu Qinan watched from afar and felt that the Fourth Uncle seemed to be a little different than usual today. His back was standing in the deep black night, plain white with a bit of loneliness.

She was a bit hesitant, but before she could walk over, the man had already turned around. His pitch-black eyes swept over her before he lowered his gaze.

The two of them did not speak, but in that moment, Lu Qinan felt that something was amiss, he could only force a smile, and slowly sat on the bed.

"Madam."

The man raised his eyebrows. An intense emotion appeared in the depths of his eyes. After a while, it turned into an indescribable gentleness.

"As for today's matters, if there's anything you want to ask, say it. "Don't keep it in your heart."

Lu Qinan shook his head, his eyes clear and without any impurities, "I know that it was deliberately designed by them, and furthermore, you, Fourth Uncle, had long seen through Qin Xuanman, so I won't be angry."

"That's good."

He paused for a moment, his expression seemed to loosen up, and he stretched out his arms to embrace her small body, his chin was resting on her head, as though he was seeking comfort, his voice was low, "Bao Bao is not well, I might have to rush over later, stay home obediently, hm?"

Lu Qinan nodded, her soft and tender fingers touched the man's brow, and gently caressed it, "But Fourth Uncle, you look very tired."

"Fourth Uncle is fine."

He pressed the center of his forehead, causing a splitting headache. He then closed his eyes and smelled the fragrance of the girl in his embrace, as though he could feel at ease.

Her chest that hugged her was firm and sturdy, her heartbeat was like the beating of a drum. Under the tranquil night sky, his heartbeat and aura undoubtedly calmed her heart down.

But somehow, he still had concerns.

If anything were to happen to Bao Bao, it was unknown what would happen to him in the future. What did he mean when he said there would be no other children?

"What's wrong?"

The body in his embrace was too stiff, Gu Zhongshen could immediately feel it, his thick eyebrows immediately knitted together, holding up that petite face, "You're scared, where are you uncomfortable?"

"Fourth Uncle …"

The young lady bit her lips, the fingers on the side of her body pinching her palm with exceptional force.

Under the light, the thick eyelashes were covered with a thick layer of shadow. After a long time, she finally opened her mouth, "Can't we have children?"

The moment those words left his mouth, Gu Zhongshen's expression had already stiffened. A flash of pain passed through his black eyes, and he quickly focused his eyes on her.

The girl's tender fingertip landed on his lips, she could not be more serious, "Why is Bao Bao your only child? We... Can't there be children? "

For a few seconds the air was completely still.

The man's face showed obvious hesitation, but the deep emotions flowing in his eyes caused Lu Qinan's heart to ache, he was startled for a moment, before he heard a familiar low and hoarse voice resounding by his ear.

"Fourth Uncle... Not very fond of children. The last time you mentioned you wanted to take him back home. When he gets better... We don't need other children, okay? "

His voice was hoarse, but these few short words seemed to have been in his throat for a very long time, long enough to the point that even his bones ached. Only then did he finally say it, and in the end, he barely parted his lips.

Lu Qinan's heart instantly sunk to the bottom of the sea.

She froze there. Even though the man had been stroking her arm, he was still very cold. His body was stiff, but there was a strange feeling in his lower abdomen. Even she couldn't accept it. Where was the baby? Could it accept it?

"Don't think too much. Rest early."

Lu Qinan nodded her head, the originally huge body by her side had already turned, and the light from above was now shining down, reflecting her pale white face. She seemed to be joking, her voice was high and cheerful.

"But you don't use contraception, what if I get pregnant?"

The body froze, his long fingers landed on the cloakroom's clothing partition, he suddenly clenched them, his joints were green and white, his handsome face revealed a sense of ease, "No way, Fourth Uncle knows what to do."

Without saying anything more serious, the man's upright body entered the cloakroom and quickly changed into a new set of clothes and left.

Before she left, she walked over to the bed and planted a deep kiss on her forehead.

The door opened and closed, and the sounds of the cars downstairs gradually faded away. Lu Qinan's stiff body suddenly relaxed at this moment, and his entire body curled up into a small ball as both of his hands landed on his lower abdomen, full of apprehension.

So it turns out that the Fourth Uncle had always wanted a child, but he did not say anything.

Lu Qinan thought for a long time. Although the Fourth Uncle and Bao Bao could not really be considered as close, but if it really was true, as the father of a child, he should still be happy.

Obstetrics and gynecology in Boai Hospital.

Not daring to go anywhere, Lu Qinan sneaked into another hospital.

"Lu Qinan, right? Twenty-two, married. "

She was wearing a jumpsuit today, and her hair was tied up in a high ponytail. She came out without any makeup, making her look no different from a high school student.

The doctor pushed the frame and glanced at her. "Alone?"

"Yes, my husband works."

After dispelling the doctor's misgivings, Lu Qinan sat obediently on the chair, his ten fingers intertwined together, he was inexplicably nervous.

"You're pregnant."

The doctor flipped through the report and suddenly opened his mouth. With a solemn expression, he quietly swept through her before adding, "A little over four years old. From the information you have on the doctor, you should know what to look out for."

"Refreshing cold but not eating, replenishing folic acid, as well as... Sexual intercourse is prohibited. "

Lu Qinan thought about her unrestrained attitude towards Fourth Uncle and immediately blushed. She slowly nodded her head, "I understand."

Lu Qinan stared at it for a long time. It was obvious that it was a baby that had been waiting for a long time, but for some reason, he did not feel happy.

Fourth Uncle still did not know about this. She bit her lips, got on a taxi and went straight to Renhe.

In the VIP building.

The elevator stopped on the eighth floor with a "Beep", and when Lu Qinan walked out, the security guards around him were still stunned.

"Madam, why have you come?"

She was startled, "I can't come?"

Normally, no one would stop him.

Lu Qinan could not help but feel that it was strange, and subconsciously walked towards the shop. He heard that Bao Bao had just escaped from danger.

"This is the only way to save Bao Bao. Your Gu family has taken care of my grandson's body, so why don't you let us take him away!"

She stood on her tiptoes and looked outside the door. It was an unfamiliar middle-aged man wearing a black suit. His hair was combed extremely neatly and his expression was fierce.

"Although Bao Bao's condition hasn't improved greatly over the years, it hasn't worsened either. This time, it's all because of your good daughter. "

It was Lian Shuyan's voice.

Lu Qinan hesitated for a while, but eventually stood outside.

"I don't care about Manman's matters, but this is my only grandson. Either you agree to my idea of getting another child from Manman, or you give Bao Bao to me!"

"Is Uncle Qin suggesting or threatening me?"

The man had been standing at the side the entire time, but at this moment, he slowly opened his eyes. His black pupils revealed an ice-cold expression, "Did you not forget what you exchanged Bao Bao for back then? Now that you've healed up and forgot the pain, you want to compete with me for the right to take care of it? "

"Since Uncle Qin has travelled far enough this time, let me also remind you that regardless of whether Bao Bao lives or dies, it has nothing to do with your Qin Family at all. As for his illness, since Shuyan is here, I won't trouble you to worry about it. "

The man wanted to say something, but the moment he raised his head, he saw Gu Zhongshen's cold face. The man gave him almost no chance, and could only turn around.

The little girl stood outside, and when she saw him come out, she lowered her head to the side to hide. The other party was Qin Xuanman's father, so he naturally saw her. He snorted heavily, and turned to leave.

"When did you arrive?"

Gu Zhongshen walked out a few steps behind, and immediately saw a little figure leaning against the corner of the wall. He squinted his eyes and held onto her cold little hand: "The cold wind is blowing, I sent a message to you this morning. It's cool today, don't come out carelessly."

"I want to see Bao Bao."

Lu Qinan bit her lips and found an excuse that could not be considered as an excuse, "Is he awake?"

"Yes."

The man nodded. His thick palm held onto her small hand as he rubbed it with force. As if he was unintentionally opening his mouth, he asked, "How much did you hear?"

When he asked, Lu Qinan also did not hesitate, but apprehension surfaced on her little face, "Bao Bao needs the bone marrow match, and the condition of his blood will make it harder for it to match compared to normal people. At this point, if the parents want another child, the odds of matching up are at least 30 percent higher. "

She was not sure if she could endure this. If it was to save Bao Bao, Fourth Uncle and Qin Xuanman …

"Fourth Uncle wouldn't do that, huh?"

"Bao Bao's condition is different from the other patients. Furthermore, from six years ago, I have never thought about having a child with Qin Xuanman, understand?"

She did not pursue the matter. If she had never thought of it before, then how did Bao Bao come about it?

Or perhaps, it was because Fourth Uncle really, really didn't want children, so neither she nor Qin Xuanman would ever have his children again.

"Lao Si, you can go in and see Bao Bao."

Lian Shuyan called out from not too far away, the man nodded his head and held onto the girl's hand tightly: "All you can do is to go in and look around by yourself, Fourth Uncle has something to say to Bao Bao, can you understand, to wait for a while?"

"I know, Fourth Uncle, help me confirm that Bao Bao is alright, and help him recover quickly."
