Chapter 169 Very Ill

"Mom! From now on, you are my real mother! Shen Cuifen? I don't acknowledge you anymore!"

His voice suddenly rose in pitch.

Zhou Wenjuan's tears hadn't even dried when a slight smile appeared on her lips.

She quickly wiped her face and nodded, choking back tears.

"Okay! I'll only accept you!"

After they finished speaking, they went back to the ward side by side.

Shen Cuifen rolled her eyes as she watched Lu Zhongping supporting Zhou Wenjuan.

What kind of time is this to be acting out a mother-son bond?

It's so pretentious it's disgusting.

But the more she looked, the more she felt something was wrong.

The two walked hand in hand so naturally, their movements so perfectly in sync...

Why do they exude an intimacy that seems unlike that of an ordinary mother and child?

Is there no other hidden story behind this?

But what does this have to do with her?

She shook her head, forcing herself to bring her thoughts back.

She didn't care what kind of drama they were acting in, as long as it didn't involve her, she couldn't be bothered to pay attention.

When Shen Cuifen returned to the ward, the Song family was chatting and laughing.

Song Xiaomei said she wouldn't leave this afternoon; she would spend more time with Song Lei and would go back in the evening.

Shen Cuifen leaned lazily against the headboard, listening and making a few casual remarks.

As we were chatting, my eyelids drooped, and I actually fell asleep.

Zou Qiuyue and Song Xiaomei exchanged a glance and immediately lowered their voices, afraid of waking her.

She didn't know how long she had slept before she was gently woken up.

She frowned slightly, mumbled something, and then slowly opened her eyes.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Zou Qiuyue's face looked exceptionally soft under the light.

Seeing that Shen Cuifen was awake, she immediately spoke softly.

"Don't rush, let's wait a bit."

"How did I fall asleep? Sis, why did you call me?"

Shen Cuifen sat up straighter and shook her head vigorously.

She looked around and realized that it was already getting dark.

"The nurse just came to call you, saying that your son's attending physician needs to speak with you."

Zou Qiuyue spoke earnestly.

Shen Cuifen's heart skipped a beat.

She quickly threw off the covers and put her feet on the ground.

Only then did they realize that Shen Zhongshun had fallen asleep at some point.

The IV drip had already finished; Zou Qiuyue and the others probably helped call the nurse to remove the needle.

Shen Cuifen felt a warmth in her heart, but also a sense of guilt.

I was sleeping so soundly that I forgot about something so important.

"Okay, okay, Sister Qiuya, please keep an eye on Zhongshun for me, I'll be right back."

She walked out while calling back.

Zou Qiuyue waved.

"Go ahead, go ahead, I'm here!"

Shen Cuifen walked quickly toward the doctor's office.

She kept her head down, her steps hurried, and her hands unconsciously clenched the hem of her clothes.

Various possibilities flashed through my mind.

Have the test results from Zhongshun come out yet?

Or has the condition changed?

She dared not think about it, yet she had no choice but to.

Dr. Liang was sitting behind his desk, writing medical records.

"You can be discharged on Saturday. Settle the bill, get some oral medication, and take it home to take on time."

He finally raised his head and looked calmly at Shen Cuifen.

"Don't be too nervous, you're recovering well, just go home and rest."

Shen Cuifen left the office, looking down at the prescription, completely unaware that someone was walking towards her.

By the time they realized what was happening, it was too late to avoid it.

As he turned around, his shoulder slammed into the corner of the wall, causing him to gasp in pain.

"How do you walk?! Can't you see where you're going?!"

She clutched her waist and couldn't help but yell.

The couple was also startled.

The man quickly helped his wife up, frantically asking her questions.

"How are you? Are you alright?"

He looked very nervous, afraid that something might happen to her.

Shen Cuifen looked up.

Good heavens, that woman has a huge belly; she's obviously pregnant.

The woman's face was pale, and cold sweat beaded on her forehead.

He was clearly quite frightened by the collision.

At this point, she's still walking around with her eyes closed. Doesn't she want the baby in her belly?

Although Shen Cuifen stopped scolding verbally, the reproach in her eyes was no less.

Seeing the pregnant woman shake her head, the man finally looked up and glared at her fiercely.

"Are you blind? Can't you see my wife is pregnant?! Can't you even walk a little further away when you're walking?!"

Shen Cuifen's gaze fell on the man's face, and she froze instantly.

this……

Isn't this Zhang Kesheng?

He actually brought his mistress to the hospital for a prenatal checkup in a very blatant way.

When the woman saw Shen Cuifen standing there in a daze, she assumed that Shen Cuifen had been frightened by Zhang Kesheng.

She quickly reached out and tugged at his arm, her tone tinged with reproach.

"Brother Zhang, forget it, forget it. Why get angry with an old lady? It's not worth it. Look, it's our turn now, let's go in quickly."

Zhang Kesheng then turned around and carefully took the woman's arm.

The two walked side by side toward the obstetrics and gynecology clinic across the street.

Shen Cuifen stood there, and only came to her senses when the door to the consultation room closed.

No, we must tell Zou Qiuyue about this immediately!

She took off running towards the inpatient ward.

Inside the house, a family of three was sitting together.

Zou Qiuyue leaned against the headboard with a smile on her face.

Song Lei sat to the side peeling an apple.

Song Xiaomei was lying on the edge of the bed, chattering away about interesting things that happened at work.

She stood at the doorway, her legs stiff, unsure of how to begin.

"Cuifen, what did the doctor say? Have Zhongshun's test results come back yet? Is he alright?"

As soon as Zou Qiuyue saw her push the door open and come in, she asked with a face full of concern.

Shen Cuifen shook her head blankly.

Song Xiaomei was perceptive and noticed at a glance that Shen Cuifen's expression was off.

She exchanged a glance with her mother, who was sitting opposite her.

The two instantly understood and quickly stood up and walked over.

"Aunt Cuifen, what's wrong? Why is your face so pale? Did the doctor say something unpleasant? Why are you so frightened when you went to see the doctor?"

Song Xiaomei held her hand tightly, her voice full of worry.

Zou Qiuya also grabbed her hand.

"Cuifen, don't scare me! What happened? Has something really happened to Zhongshun?"

Shen Cuifen shook her head vigorously, her throat bobbing up and down.

Song Xiaomei became anxious, and her voice even sounded like she was about to cry.

"Aunt Cuifen, please don't be like this! Tell me what's wrong! Has something happened to Zhongshun? Is he very ill? Please say something!"

Shen Cuifen's heart tightened.

Finally, she took a deep breath and tightly grasped Zou Qiuyue's hand.

"Sister Qiuya... I... I have terrible lower abdominal pain, could you... could you come with me to see a gynecologist?"

Upon hearing this, Zou Qiuya's face showed even greater worry.

"Stop talking nonsense, come on! I'll go with you! Your face looks terrible, why did your stomach suddenly start hurting? Have you been too tired lately? Or did you eat something unclean?"

Song Xiaomei quickly stepped forward and supported her from the other side.

"Aunt Cuifen, I'll go with you! I'm worried about you going alone in this condition!"

"Mom, what's wrong?!"

Upon hearing the commotion, Shen Zhongshun rushed to the door, his eyes instantly reddening.

"Don't scare me! Did something happen to me during the checkup? Is it because you've been worrying about me too much?!"

Shen Cuifen shook her head slightly and forced a smile.

"Mom's okay, really okay, don't worry. Lie down and don't move around, okay?"

She couldn't take Zou Qiuyue directly to the obstetrics and gynecology department to confront Zhang Kesheng face to face.

That's too impulsive and too hurtful.
