Chapter 338 - Pregnancy Test

While at Lu-Wei Enterprises, Bolin brought a bag to the CEO's office. It was a box of the pregnancy test. He had earlier dropped by the pharmacy at Lu Fang's request.

"Here you go, Master," said Bolin as he placed it on the man's desk. 

Andrea hurriedly went to grab the bag and excused herself, giving the two men a wink as she went inside the private room, "I'll just go take the test. I am excited!"

Lu Fang wanted to have the pregnancy test in the hospital, but Andrea figured the ones in the pharmacy works equally well. 

In the man's comfort room, Andrea was nervous about the result that she immediately looked at it. She was sure she saw two red lines, but because she was so excited to give the news to her husband, she quickly placed it back in the box and held it in her hand.

When she returned to the man's office, he was speaking with the Human Resources Director, Mr. Wang. She gave her greetings and decided to share the good news with Arti and Bolin first. 

Just as she exited the room and came approaching to Bolin's desk, Arti was rushing towards her direction that they ended up bumping into each other. 

"Boss! I'm so sorry!" Exclaimed Arti. She then bent over to pick up something before composing herself, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Lu. I hope I did not hurt you."

She smiled awkwardly, seeing Arti looking nervous and said, "I'm fine, Arti. Why were you rushing?"

"Oh, it's nothing," Arti said before hurriedly putting her hands in her jacket pocket. "Do you need anything?"

The CEO doors opened, interrupting their conversation, and Director Wang came outside. Both Arti and Andrea greeted him again. Then came Lu Fang peeking outside the door, calling out to his wife, "Babe, Gao Rou, and Deana called. Do you want to join the call?"

"Oh, okay." Turning to Arti, she said, "I'll come back and catch up with you later," said Andrea as she walked back inside her husband's space.

Walking towards the desk, Lu Fang put on his office phone on speakers saying, "Go ahead Gao Rou and Deana, Andy is already here. What's the update?"

Andrea came closer to the man and sat on his lap, making the man grin. They both remained in the same position as they listen to Gao Rou speak. 

"The operation was successful. Landon will still be under observation in the recovery room before moving him to the ICU," said Gao Rou.

"That is good to hear," said Andrea. 

"We can probably check on them when Landon is already awake. The doctors say he may need to stay for two weeks the most before sending him for home recovery."

There was a moment of silence before someone spoke again, "Ah, Andrea. I was wondering if it's okay if I take a little break. I had already forwarded to Darwin the research and data provided by Landon."

"Why, of course, Deana! You did not have to ask permission from me. You are technically working for your brother and not for me. Haha! But I'll help explain to your brother because I think that's what you are asking my help for," said Andrea. 

They all ended up in laughter after Andrea caught up Deana's hidden request. 

"Where are you planning to go?" Andrea asked. 

"We wanted to go to the Maldives, me and Gao Rou - "

"Oooh… So it's not just Darwin I need to speak to but also my husband," Andrea added. 

"Hmmm," said the man. "Go ahead, brother. You deserve the vacation. Andy and I will set up the resort for you."

After their call ended, Andrea embraced her husband and kissed him on the cheeks. She heard the man ask, "What was the result of the pregnancy test?"

Andrea quickly sat up. She realized she had brought it outside hoping to share the news with Arti. "Oh! I think I dropped it. I bumped into Arti while outside."

She hurriedly walked outside and scanned the floors for a small box of pregnancy test.  Eventually, she found it at the bottom of a huge vase, nearing to the office door. 

Bending over to grab it she heard Bolin ask, "Everything okay Mrs. Lu?"

After holding on to the pregnancy test box she showed it to Bolin saying, "I dropped it. I better show it to Lu Fang. Excuse me, Bolin."

Hastily walking back in, she took out the pregnancy test and handed it to the man saying, "It's positive."

The man smiled with confidence, knowing that it would be. His eyes look at what his wife was holding. However, soon his expression changed to a frown. He asked, "Is that right, babe?"

Andrea checked the pregnancy test and was surprised to see only one red line. Her mouth hung open and her brows drew together in dismay. "I swore I thought I saw two red lines earlier. I - I must have been mistaken."

Lu Fang was suddenly in deep thought. Just as when they needed to be pregnant, it did not turn out as easy as it used to. He asked, "Do you want to have the test done in the hospital itself? Or have Bolin buy another?"

"No, it's fine. It's probably right. Anyway, we still have time since I had immunoglobulin transfusion, replied Andrea.

He saw his wife sat on the seat in front of him with worry. He thought perhaps they needed a change in the environment. 

He immediately called his father and asked for help with the company. Since he had already allowed Gao Rou to take a vacation, his father can look after the company while they also take time off themselves and continue with their pregnancy goals. 

Lu Wei naturally agreed. After putting down the phone, Lu Fang turned to his wife asking, "How would you like to go back to the Maldives?"

She smiled before saying, "Yes, that would be nice."

Meanwhile, outside Lu Fang's office, Bolin noticed Arti had been quiet for some time. "Anything wrong pickle?"

Arti turned to Bolin and took a deep breath. She said, "Tiger, how much do you love me? Are you willing to marry me?"

Bolin chuckled, wondering what was it all about. He asked, "Where is this coming from? You know very well that I love you. We have been sharing everything for almost a year now. We are practically already married without the formalities."

Bolin and Arti had been living together for months. It allowed them to conveniently be together at the same time, help Arti with her expenses, not having to rent her own apartment. 

"Okay then, let's get married," Arti proposed after showing him a pregnancy test with two bars. "It says it's positive."
