Chapter 102 She was faking it.

Grandma breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank goodness it's just morning sickness... Wait, what did you say you vomited?"

Qi Chenyan continued, "Grandma, Lili is already two and a half months pregnant."

Grandma's face instantly turned very serious, and her tone was visibly critical: "Yu Li, such a big thing, why didn't you even call home?"

"Do you think that Grandma is old and useless, and can't take care of you anymore?"

When Yu Li was little, her grandmother would only call her by her full name when she made a mistake.

Since Yu Li came of age, her grandmother has rarely called her by her full name.

In an instant, memories of being scolded by my grandmother and made to stand in the corner as a child flooded back.

Even when Qi Chenyan was holding her, Yu Li's body tensed up instantly.

However, before she could explain, Qi Chenyan had already taken all the blame upon himself.

"Grandma, it's all my fault. I felt that Lili's health wasn't very good. The doctor also said that the first three months are the most dangerous. I was afraid that something might happen during this period, so after discussing it with Lili, we decided to keep it a secret for the time being."

"But it's not that we intentionally kept it from you or my family. We just wanted to wait until things were completely stable for three months before telling you the good news."

"I just didn't expect that Lili's morning sickness would suddenly become more frequent in less than three months. I'm sorry that you were worried. As her husband, I didn't take good care of Lili. I'm sorry."

Qi Chenyan apologized several times, his attitude extremely humble: "Lili is still feeling very unwell. If you have any questions or any criticisms, I will accept them all."

"Let Lili go upstairs to rest now. I'll ask my doctor friend to come over and take a look right away. Is that alright?"

It has to be Qi Chenyan. With just a few words, he not only took full responsibility and drew all the criticism from his grandmother, but also arranged everything perfectly.

Although Grandma was angry that Yu Li had kept her pregnancy a secret, she could see that her granddaughter's complexion was indeed not good, so she naturally put Yu Li's health first.

"Xiao Yan, when is your doctor friend coming? Or should I go to the clinic first and ask Dr. Wang to come over and take a look at Lili?"

Qi Chenyan patiently explained, "Lili's current condition shouldn't be a big problem. I, as her friend, am currently responsible for Lili's health."

"Don't worry, morning sickness is a normal reaction for pregnant women. With me here, I will make sure nothing happens to Lili."

As someone who has been through it, Grandma naturally knows how miserable morning sickness can be.

She sat on the edge of the bed with a pained expression, holding Yu Li's hand. "Silly child, how could you hide such a big thing from Grandma? Are you still feeling sad?"

“When I was pregnant with your father, I was so nauseous that I felt like I was going to faint. Even when I was seven or eight months pregnant, I was still vomiting.”

"Thinking back on that memory now still makes me feel like I've suffered terribly."

As she spoke, Grandma stroked Yu Li's head and said, "Since ancient times, women have always gone through the gates of hell when they give birth. Whether it is during pregnancy or childbirth, it is extremely painful."

“My poor child, look how pale you are. You’re not even three months old yet, and you’re already vomiting so frequently. You’ll suffer even more in the future.”

Yu Li originally thought she could accept it. Although it was uncomfortable to vomit, fortunately, it hadn't happened frequently before.

Today, I was probably exhausted from the long bus ride and the busy work of catching chickens, so I vomited twice. I felt nauseous at the smell of anything and couldn't eat anything, which is why I looked particularly haggard.

Especially hearing her grandmother's distressing words and being comforted by the old woman, Yu Li's usually optimistic mindset became sensitive and fragile.

Her eyes were a little wet and sore, and Yu Li obediently rubbed against her grandmother's palm.

"No, Grandma, I'm fine. I'm just a little tired today because of the car ride and all the running around. I don't usually throw up. You can ask Qi Chenyan."

Just then, Qi Chenyan finished his call with Tan Mo and put down his phone.

“Grandma, Lili didn’t lie to you. She rarely had morning sickness before, but she was probably tired today, so she threw up twice.”

Upon hearing this, Grandma raised her voice immediately: "Twice? When? I remember now, wasn't it when you came downstairs and said you were changing clothes and Lili would wash them for you? At that time, were you just trying to coax this old woman?"

Oops, I accidentally let it all slip out.

Yu Li and Qi Chenyan exchanged a glance, both clearly feeling guilty.

"I feel a little dizzy and want to sleep for a while."

Fortunately, Yu Li reacted quickly, pretending to be dizzy and pressing her forehead against the ground.

Qi Chenyan reacted quickly, but he thought Yu Li really had a headache, so he stepped forward to check on her.

Yu Li quickly winked playfully at Qi Chenyan through the gap in her palm.

Silently mouth: I'm faking it, cooperate with me.

Qi Chenyan breathed a sigh of relief, but also found it somewhat amusing.

The young wife is real; whenever she has a little energy, she can come up with all sorts of clever schemes.

He patted her head and said, "Alright, lie down and rest. Tan Mo will be here soon."

"Actually, I'm fine now..."

But Qi Chenyan's tone left no room for argument: "No, to put my and Grandma at ease, you have to be obedient, Lili."

Yu Li could only lie down and say "oh".

She never expected that visiting relatives in her hometown would result in spending the entire day in bed.

Fortunately, although she felt a little unwell, it was just morning sickness and she didn't have any lower abdominal pain, otherwise she wouldn't have dared to be careless.

Meanwhile, Tan Mo didn't dare to delay after receiving Qi Chenyan's urgent call, as it happened to be his day off.

He felt like he was a complete idiot, exploited by the hospital when he was working and by his good friend when he was on vacation.

However, since it's his first time being a father, he lacks experience, and it's understandable that he gets overly anxious about the slightest thing that happens to his wife.

The young couple, taking a honeymoon, actually ended up in a small village.

If it weren't for the navigation, Tan Mo would never have even heard of such a small place as Panxi Village.

However, Tan Mo was really unlucky; his car broke down halfway through the journey.

Still on the highway, far from any village or shop, he could only call a tow truck first. While waiting outside, he wondered if he could hail a ride in this area.

Just then, a dark green Land Rover sped by.

But after a short while, the Land Rover reversed on its own.

The car window rolled down, revealing Qi Xiaoyun's handsome face with a touch of roguish charm.

"Brother Mo, what are you doing here? Did your car break down?"

Qi Xiaoyun, as a relative, naturally knew all of Qi Chenyan's brothers.

Aside from Zhou Heran, with whom he was inherently incompatible, Qi Xiaoyun respected everyone else.

When Tan Mo saw Qi Xiaoyun, it was as if he had seen a savior.

"Xiaoyun, you've come at the right time. Give me a ride and take me to Panxi Village. If we're late and something really happens to Shen Yan's precious darling, he might kill me."

Tan Mo put his arm around Qi Xiaoyun's shoulder and told him to drive quickly.

But Qi Xiaoyun focused on an adjective.

"Uncle's darling? Brother Mo, you wouldn't be talking about... that TV host Yu Li, would you?"
