Chapter 646 I Will Become the Child’s Father

Jiang Yiming held the ultrasound film in his hand. He looked at Shen Qing, who had been silent since a while ago. He opened his mouth to say something, but his throat seemed to be blocked by a piece of cotton and he couldn't utter a word.

Shen Qing touched her abdomen and raised her head. There was a row of camphor trees planted in the hospital. The sunlight shone sparsely on her body through the leaves of the camphor trees. Shen Qing's face was waxy yellow, but her neck was snow-white. Now it was almost transparent under the light, and the blood vessels on her neck could be seen clearly.

Shen Qing felt that she was not worthy of having a child. Once the child was born, countless troubles would be waiting for her. Moreover, she had no ability and could not protect the child by herself.

Do I have to abort it?

Shen Qing looked at her abdomen. There had not been many changes in the three months of pregnancy, but she could still feel that there was a life there.

Her drooping eyelashes trembled slightly. This was her relative.

Shen Qing lacked family affection because she had never received it, so she wanted to place this affection on this child.

"Do you want this child?" Jiang Yiming asked. He could see that Shen Qing looked very conflicted. "If you want it, then keep it. After all... it's your baby."

"But this child will be born as an illegitimate child, without a father..."

Jiang Yiming shook his head. He raised his hand and gently rubbed Shen Qing's head. "It won't be a illegitimate child. If you are willing, I can be the child's father. As for your concerns, such as the child having no identity, I can help you solve them. The rest is up to you. Do you want this child? If you don't want it, I will accompany you to the hospital to have an abortion. If you do, I will accompany you to raise the child together."

He gave Shen Qing the space to choose, and also hoped that Shen Qing could give him a chance.

He didn't mind having another child to raise. As long as Shen Qing was willing, he could accept anything.

Shen Qing looked at a loss, not knowing where to look, and finally could only lower his head to look at his toes.

Jiang Yiming took a breath and couldn't remember anything. He needed to give Shen Qing some time to think about it, and he himself also needed time.

"Let's go back."

Christmas is coming soon. Christmas in foreign countries is more lively and the weather is cold. Jiang Yiming carries a hand warmer with him and gives it to Shen Qing as soon as he goes out.

Before, Shen Qing's pregnancy reaction was just vomiting from time to time, which was not that uncomfortable. But now that she knows she is pregnant, she always feels sore in her back and waist, as if something is pressing against her stomach, and she is very sleepy.

Shen Qing used to get up early in the morning to prepare the ingredients, but now she overslept. When she woke up in a daze, she heard a noise coming from outside. She was stunned for a moment and then woke up instantly. She opened the door with her coat on, and when she came to the kitchen door, she saw Jiang Yiming busy inside. The ingredients had already been prepared.

Jiang Yiming heard a noise behind him and turned around: "Did I wake you up?"

Shen Qing shook his head: "Why didn't you wake me up?"

"You should get more rest while you're pregnant. Why would I ask you to get up? Besides, I can do all this. What do you think?"

The ingredients were neatly arranged. You have to know that Jiang Yiming was a rich young man before. He couldn't even wash dishes, let alone cook. Now he has lived with Shen Qing for two or three months. He not only cleans but also washes clothes and cooks. The food he cooks is pretty good.

The taste is always a little bit off. Even though the cooking method and seasoning are exactly the same, the taste is still worse than Shen Qing's.

Jiang Yiming put the ingredients into the cart one by one, and while wearing a helmet, he said, "Remember to eat breakfast. You rest at home. From now on, I will sell snacks."

After the hospital confirmed that she was pregnant, Jiang Yiming asked Shen Qing if she wanted the child. Until now, Shen Qing has not given a complete answer.

But Jiang Yiming could see that Shen Qing wanted this child. She didn't say anything and didn't ask too many questions, so he just let things develop normally.

Raising a child is very expensive, and even if the adults suffer, the child must not suffer. Shen Qing is in poor health. The examination showed that she was malnourished and had low progesterone. In order to protect the fetus, she had to go to the hospital for injections in the later stages.

Apart from the pregnancy period, the greater expenses are those after the baby is born. Shen Qing needs to stay in confinement after childbirth, and the baby needs nutritional supplements.

For her safety and the baby's health, he must earn enough money as soon as possible.

It was a cold winter morning outside, and people were shivering from the cold. Jiang Yiming quickly closed the door as soon as he went out: "Come in quickly, it's cold outside."

The streets were covered in fog in winter and there were not many people to be seen. Jiang Yiming drove the car carefully to the place. He came at this time every day and there were already many people waiting there.

Jiang Yiming opened the cart and apologized to the people around him: "Sorry for keeping you waiting. I'm late today."

"It's okay, boss, give me some seafood fried noodles. Boss, why haven't I seen the boss lady these past two days?"

"She's pregnant, so I asked her to rest at home. I'll be the one driving the car and selling it for the next few months."

"The boss's wife is pregnant. Congratulations, boss. Take good care of her. If you need anything, you can ask us."

Jiang Yiming smiled shyly. Everyone thought Shen Qing was pregnant with his child, and he also hoped so.

In fact, it doesn’t matter whether the child is his or not. The child is always Shen Qing’s. As long as it is Shen Qing’s child, he will treat it as his own.

At noon, Jiang Yiming finished work early and went home. When he got home, he saw a person standing at the door from a distance.

Shen Qing was wearing a big cotton-padded jacket and a scarf around her neck. Even at home, she would apply thick foundation on her face, making her face look sallow. Jiang Yiming also disguised himself by growing a beard, losing some of his youthfulness and gaining some mature masculinity.

Jiang Yiming pulled the car over and hurried over: "Why don't you stay home? It's so cold outside."

"It's not good to be cooped up at home all the time. I came out to get some fresh air and wait for you to come home for dinner."

"Is the meal ready?"

Shen Qing nodded: "Yes, it's hot in the pot, you can eat it as soon as you come back."

The room was filled with the smell of fireworks, and it was warm from the outside to the inside. He followed Shen Qing into the kitchen and took the food from her hands and brought it to the table one by one.

"Shen Qing, I can cook now. You can just wait for me to come back and cook at home. I don't want you to be too tired."

Shen Qing has been cooking since she was five years old. This is the first time someone has told her that they don’t want her to be too tired from cooking.

"I'm just pregnant, not disabled. Cooking is simple. I don't want to do nothing. Even when I'm pregnant, I need proper exercise." Shen Qing clenched her chopsticks and said to Jiang Yiming after hesitating for a moment, "Jiang Yiming, I want to keep this child."

In the end, emotion outweighs reason.

"Well, then let's find a new house, preferably one with heating and a TV. Oh, and... we need a baby room. I don't know if you're having a boy or a girl. We'll find out in a month or two. Christmas is only a week away, so we won't be setting up the stall these days. Let's go look at houses. I've chosen a few and talked to the people in charge. You can see which one is good and the price is right..."

Jiang Yiming put down his bowl and chopsticks, took out his cell phone and showed Shen Qing the house he had recently inquired about.

He enthusiastically explained to each of them, "This place is nice. There's a kindergarten in front and a hospital in the back. This area is relatively quiet. It's a good place for you to take care of your pregnancy."

"This place has nice greenery and a small pond below, so it's cool in the summer. It's close to the snack street, but it's a bit noisy."

"And this..."

Shen Qing watched Jiang Yiming continue to introduce things. It was obviously her own business, but he cared about it more than she did.

Shen Qing's eyes were filled with tears: "Jiang Yiming, why are you so nice to me? I thought you would persuade me to abort the child."

"The baby is three months old. Abortion and curettage are very harmful to the body. It also involves a life." Jiang Yiming's heart beat fast when he raised his eyes and met Shen Qing's eyes.

"Shen Qing, do you believe in fate? It's fate that God brings people together, and it's separation if you catch them. Look at me, believe me, I will accompany you well."

Companionship speaks louder than words, details speak louder than sweet words, but what Jiang Yiming doesn't know is that there is also a word called "deep bond but shallow love".

Jiang Yiming had already found his favorite house. He just needed to make a phone call to arrange an appointment, sign a contract and pay the money.

Jiang Yiming hired a moving company, which took one day to move his things in, and another day to clean and tidy up. The house was twice as big as before, with a living room and two bedrooms, and the kitchen was three or four more square meters.

After finishing the work, there are still three days until Christmas.
