After being the pampered young lady of the Lu family for seventeen years, she discovered she was actually a fake heiress. Meng Anran decisively cut ties with the Lu family and returned to the finan...
Chapter 251 Pregnancy
When Meng Anran parked the car in the garage of Villa No. 6 in Henghai Bay, the sun was already setting.
She skillfully entered the password and opened the carved security door.
From a distance, I saw Liuzhi wrapped in a furry blanket, curled up in the swing in the backyard, staring blankly, still holding the pregnancy test stick in her hand.
The sound of the floor-to-ceiling glass door sliding on the track startled Liu Zhi. She raised her head and the moment she saw her best friend, she felt like she had found support. Her nose felt sore and her eyes suddenly turned red.
"Baby Anran!" Liuzhi pouted, tears about to fall, and opened her arms to ask for a hug.
Meng Anran walked over quickly, hugged her in his arms, and took the pregnancy test stick.
The two clear red bars are particularly dazzling in the sunset.
"I took the test three times, and each time it came back with two bars." Liu Zhi sniffed. The usually capable and cool girl now seemed as fragile as a soft little white rabbit.
It was obvious that she was not mentally prepared for the fact that she was about to become a mother, so she was scared and helpless when the situation happened.
Meng Anran put the pregnancy test stick aside and reached out to pull the blanket off Liuzhi to prevent her from catching a cold.
Then he took out a thermos from his bag, opened the lid and handed it over: "Drink some hot water. Did Ming Jing say when he would be back?"
When she mentioned Ming Jing, Liu Zhi's tears welled up again: "No. I told him that the test showed two bars, just to know what his plans were and whether we could get the marriage certificate as soon as possible, but he kept saying we should wait."
Meng Anran raised her brows slightly. It seemed that these two bars had disrupted Mingjing's proposal plan. Regardless of whether the child was born or not, he hoped to complete every ceremony for Liuzhi.
From proposal to marriage certificate, from wedding to pregnancy.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, Mingjing's process is also good for Liuzhi. No matter in which circle, getting pregnant before marriage is always not good for a girl's reputation.
Liu Zhi suddenly became excited, threw off the blanket and jumped off the swing, "This bastard! Why didn't he say wait when he slept with me? Now that something happened, he wants to run away? If he dares not take responsibility, I will-"
"What about you?" Meng Anran raised her eyebrows with interest.
"I will complain to my uncle and aunt about him! He will not only not inherit the Ming family's fortune, but will also be kicked out!"
Liu Zhi was in a rage and spoke harshly, but to Meng Anran it sounded a bit like a tantrum.
She reached out and pulled Liuzhi back to the swing with amusement, and calmly felt Liuzhi's pulse.
She is indeed pregnant.
She patted Liu Zhi's back gently and said, "Don't think too much. I'll take you to the hospital for a checkup. If Ming Jing doesn't want to take responsibility, I'll cut him for you."
With her best friend by her side, Liuzhi was finally able to calm down. It seemed that she no longer had to worry about the outcome.
As soon as the two best friends got into the car, a series of messages from Mingjing popped up on Meng Anran's phone.
[Ming Jing]: Help! Zhizhi seems to be pregnant. I was suddenly dragged to Hai City for a meeting and am still at the Hai City airport. I can't go back soon. If you have time, go and see Zhizhi first.
[Ming Jing]: Zhizhi appears to have a bad temper, but actually she likes to overthink things. Please help me calm her down and don't let her get sick from being angry.
Ming Jing: Don't tell her about the proposal yet. I've already contacted my parents and told the guests to reschedule the reception to next Friday. As soon as the proposal is over, I'll get the marriage certificate with her immediately to prevent news of her pregnancy from getting out and affecting her reputation.
[Ming Jing]: I have made an appointment with the best obstetrics director at the City Central Hospital. You can take Zhizhi for a check-up. Please contact me if there is anything.
[Ming Jing]: Please take good care of her.
After reading all the messages, Meng Anran's expression changed from shock to helplessness, and finally to a state of being inconsolable. She replied: "She is my best friend, don't worry, I am more reliable than you."
Then he turned off his phone and drove Liuzhi to the city center hospital.
The car drove steadily towards the city center hospital. Liu Zhi leaned on the passenger seat, her fingers unconsciously stroking her flat belly.
The lights outside the window were just coming on, and the neon lights of the city cast a changing glow on her face.
"An Ran, tell me..." Liu Zhi suddenly spoke, her voice so soft that it was almost inaudible, "Will I be a good mother?"
Meng Anran turned to look at her. Her best friend's usually flamboyant features were now incredibly soft. She slowly withdrew her gaze, then spoke softly, her tone gentle but certain: "You'll be the coolest mom."
Liuzhi chuckled, all her melancholy dissipating as she seemed to gradually accept the fact of her pregnancy. "Of course I must. I want my child to be the coolest kid in the entire kindergarten."
"Mingjing will probably chase after the child to feed him every day." Meng Anran teased.
"Don't mention that bastard!" Liu Zhi puffed up her cheeks again, but this time she was obviously less angry and more coquettish. "Wait until he comes back and see how I deal with him!"
The VIP obstetrics department of the City Center Hospital is brightly lit.
Ming Jing had obviously made all the arrangements. As soon as they entered the hall, a nurse came up to them and said, "Miss Liu? Director Lin is waiting for you."
In the examination room, Director Lin was a kind middle-aged woman. She smiled and said to Liu Zhi, "Congratulations, you're going to be a mother."
The ultrasound probe moved across Liuzhi's abdomen, and a small black dot soon appeared on the screen.
Director Lin pointed at the screen and said, "Look, this is the gestational sac, about six weeks."
Liu Zhi tightly grasped Meng Anran's hand, staring at the screen without blinking, her lips trembling slightly: "So small..."
It is so small that it seems fragile, as if it will disappear if you are not careful.
"But he's healthy," Director Lin said gently. "His heartbeat is strong."
When she heard the word "heartbeat", Liuzhi's tears suddenly burst out.
She turned around and threw herself into Meng Anran's arms, crying like a baby: "Anran, it has a heartbeat, it... is really in my belly."
Meng Anran patted her back gently, a gentle smile on her red lips.
At this moment, she truly realized that they were no longer the girls who ran rampant on campus.
After the examination, the nurse kindly brought hot milk and biscuits.
Ming Jing had already gotten off the plane and was on his way to the hospital. He wanted to take Liu Zhi home personally, so Meng Anran sat with Liu Zhi on a bench in the hospital corridor and waited.
Liu Zhi held the hot milk, a gentle smile on her lips, and her eyes were full of expectation and the light that only belongs to maternal love.
But soon, a sly, playful look of a young girl flashed in her eyes again. She leaned over and bumped into her best friend's shoulder. "Hey, Anran, you and Qin Mu must have done that, right? Since you're here, why not get a checkup?"
"No need to check, this menstrual period is normal." Meng Anran looked down at her phone, a smug smile on the corner of her lips.
A Weibo push message popped up at the top of the screen, and the curve of her lips suddenly collapsed, and her red lips were pressed into a cold and hard straight line.
