Chapter 265: Well, I... am pregnant.

Return to Courtyard No. 1.

The housekeeper respectfully placed cotton slippers for the two of them.

The table was already set with dinner prepared by the chef who had just returned from Hong Kong.

Shen Xichuan took Xu Jialan by the hand and walked towards the restaurant.

When I was almost at the restaurant, I was suddenly stopped.

The man paused and looked back at her, "What's wrong?"

Xu Jialan pursed his lips, a little nervous, “Shen Xichuan, I have something to tell you.”

The tone sounds very formal.

The man looked at her intently for a few seconds, then nodded. "Okay, go ahead."

Xu Jialan is still preparing himself mentally.

She took a deep breath, then took out the folded examination report from her bag and handed it over.

"Um, I... am pregnant."

Shen Xichuan looked down at the report she handed over.

The report contains professional medical information, but it is not so profound that it is difficult to understand.

He understood every word on it.

But after connecting them together, he seemed unable to receive the signal transmitted by the report.

"You...what did you say?"

Shen Xichuan's voice was hoarse.

His mind went blank.

Even the question I asked was a subconscious reaction.

He seemed to have no reaction at all.

Xu Jialan glanced at the report that had not been taken, and did not put it away, maintaining that posture.

She said again patiently, "I'm pregnant."

"I almost fainted at home this morning. Ningning discovered it when she took my pulse, so we went to the hospital. Here's the medical report, you can take a look."

As soon as the words fell, Shen Xichuan seemed to be stimulated by something and quickly came back to his senses.

"You fainted?"

Xu Jialan opened his mouth, "No, I..."

She was about to explain that she just nearly fainted.

I didn't really feel dizzy.

Shen Xichuan simply picked her up.

Not a princess hug.

Instead, he let her sit on his strong arms and lifted her up.

Xu Jialan: "..."

The man didn't walk very fast. It was just a few steps, but he took almost twice as long as usual to walk.

He carefully put Xu Jialan down, then half-knelt beside her.

Xu Jialan looked down at his reaction condescendingly.

Shen Xichuan's face clearly flashed with helplessness, as if he was facing a porcelain doll.

He pursed his dry lips and said, "I...are you still feeling uncomfortable? I'll call a doctor. Or will you feel uncomfortable sitting like this? I'll carry you back to your room and let you lie down, okay?"

You can see that it's really messed up.

Otherwise he wouldn't be so incoherent.

Xu Jialan smiled softly.

She took his hand, which was obviously cold and still trembling slightly, and held it tightly.

"I'm not feeling well, so there's no need to call a doctor. I won't feel uncomfortable sitting like this. Besides, don't we have to eat?"

When Shen Xichuan heard the last sentence, he quickly came back to his senses, “Yes, eat.”

He stood up and took a look at the dishes. They were light and nutritious.

But I am not sure whether pregnant women can eat it.

"I'll have someone prepare some more food. Please wait for a moment, it will be ready soon."

Shen Xichuan comforted Xu Jialan and was about to tell the housekeeper to ask the kitchen to prepare some new food.

Xu Jialan had no choice but to pull him back.

Feeling her strength, Shen Xichuan didn't dare to move, for fear of hurting her.

"No need to prepare it again, these meals are already good."

Shen Xichuan didn’t move.

Xu Jialan gently pulled him and said, "Achuan, please sit down first. Let's have a good chat."

Hearing this, Shen Xichuan sat down beside her.

He looked at the steaming food on the table, paused, silently picked up an empty bowl, and filled her with a bowl of warm soup.

He picked up the chopsticks and picked up some food for her.

However, unlike usual, he would take a bite of each dish before putting it in her bowl.

It's more refined than just a little bit.

Those who didn’t know would have thought that Xu Jialan was not pregnant, but had a serious illness.

Xu Jialan watched the man's actions but did not stop him.

She drank half a bowl of soup and her stomach felt much better.

After struggling for most of the day, she was already hungry.

At this time, she still had to make sure she was full first.

Don’t let the little one starve.

Shen Xichuan pursed his lips slightly, and when he saw her finish the soup, he silently added another half bowl.

Then continue to pick out fish bones for her.

Xu Jialan turned his head to look at him, with no expression on his face.

"Are you... unhappy?"

Shen Xichuan paused slightly, then shook his head, “No.”

He was not unhappy.

"Then why do you always look unhappy?"

Hearing this, Shen Xichuan slowly put down his chopsticks and placed the bowl full of fish meat with the bones already picked out in front of her.

"I'm not unhappy, I'm just... afraid that you'll be unhappy."

"Are you afraid that I'll be unhappy?"

Xu Jialan was stunned for a few seconds, "Why are you afraid that I'm unhappy?"

Shen Xichuan was quiet for a while before he slowly spoke, “Your experiment has just begun.”

He just said this and Xu Jialan reacted.

"So, I can't go to the lab after I get pregnant. Are you worried that I'll be unhappy because I can't go to the lab?"

Shen Xichuan didn’t speak.

But his silence gave the answer.

Xu Jialan looked at him steadily, feeling extremely sad.

She had never thought that without her knowing, Shen Xichuan had thought so much about her.

No wonder he never worries about his children.

I don't even have any thoughts about this.

That's why he had this reaction after knowing that she was pregnant.

She reached out and held the man's left hand. Beneath the fingertips was a ring on his ring finger.

Since getting married, he has never taken it off except when he was on a mission.

I never took it off again after leaving the fire department.

"I admit that the experiment is important to me, but you are equally important."

"After we get married, we'll build our own family together, and naturally we'll have children. Without me in the lab, there will be many other researchers who will continue to work on this experiment, but I know you can't live without me by your side."

Shen Xichuan’s heart trembled when he heard her words.

He couldn't help but hold her hand tightly, "Are you happy?"

Xu Jialan curled his lips and asked him, "What about you? Are you happy?"

The two looked at each other for a while.

After a long while, Shen Xichuan nodded and said, “Happy.”

He is very happy.

Xu Jialan also smiled and said, "Yeah, I'm very happy too."
