Their relationship gradually recovered because Fu Huaijin humbled himself and showed great care.
At the same time, Su Yuxi's belly was also growing bigger every few days, like an inflating balloon.
Before I knew it, I was in my third month of pregnancy.
Looking at her increasingly protruding belly in the mirror, Su Yuxi felt something was wrong. She didn't know what it was like for other fox spirits to be pregnant, but she knew that once a fox was pregnant, it would give birth in a little over a month at the earliest and three months at the latest.
But she's been pregnant for three months already, why is there no sign of labor at all?
And the little one hasn't been moving since yesterday, could something have happened?
She looked at her belly again and again, touching it repeatedly, her heart pounding with anxiety: "Little Bao, are you still there? If you are, give me a kick."
Fu Huaijin waited outside. Seeing that Su Yuxi had been inside for so long without coming out, a sense of worry rose in his heart. He went up and knocked on the door: "Xixi, are you done?"
There was no response from inside, and his heart tightened. Without further hesitation, he pushed the door open and entered. He then saw Su Yuxi constantly touching her stomach, looking extremely anxious.
Actually, her belly wasn't very big, only a little bigger than a typical pregnant woman's three-month belly. But since she had two bellies, it was normal for it to be a little bigger.
"What's wrong?" Fu Huaijin walked over, his hands naturally slipping under her waist, his large hand resting on the back of her hand, and asked softly, "Are you feeling unwell? Is the baby kicking you again?"
Su Yuxi frowned and expressed her concern: "No, the baby hasn't moved since yesterday, and it's been more than three months, and they still haven't come out. Do you think something might have happened to the baby?"
Fu Huaijin gently supported her lower abdomen and chuckled, "It takes ten months for a baby to ripen and fall from the tree; it's still early."
He thought it was something serious.
Su Yuxi shook her head: "But some of the sisters in the clan can give birth in a month, and at the latest in three months. I've been pregnant for more than three months."
Fu Huaijin suddenly remembered a crucial fact: his wife was a little devil, unlike ordinary people.
He also became flustered, but in order not to worry his wife, he tried his best to remain calm and gently reassured her, "Don't worry, let's go to the hospital to get it checked out first?"
Faced with this sudden turn of events, Su Yuxi had no choice but to nod gently, her eyes filled with dependence on him.
Immediately afterward, the two drove to the hospital in a great hurry.
This private hospital is one of the Fu family's businesses. They didn't make a big fuss about it; they simply freed up one machine at the hospital and assigned a few experienced obstetricians.
When they arrived at the hospital, they went straight into the examination room. The room was dimly lit and had a faint smell of disinfectant. There were only three doctors on standby inside. When the patients came in, the medical staff greeted them carefully.
Fu Huaijin didn't have time to pay attention to her, and nervously helped Su Yuxi to lie down on the small bed.
"Are you sure everything will be alright?" Su Yuxi gripped Fu Huaijin's arm nervously, feeling increasingly uneasy the more she thought about it.
Fu Huaijin grasped her hand in return, squeezing it firmly to give her boundless strength: "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
When the coupling gel landed on her stomach, Su Yuxi's belly tightened instantly, as if her body was rejecting the touch of these external things, and the little baby in her belly also began to become restless.
Seeing her furrowed brows, the female doctor mistakenly thought she was scared, so she explained softly, "Madam, it's alright, it's just a very routine examination. These coupling agents won't have any effect on your body."
When the probe of the instrument was gently placed on her abdomen, something strange happened. The screen next to her suddenly went black. The female doctor frowned and started typing on the keyboard. The female nurse behind her went over to check the plug and found that it was not damaged.
He couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Why did it suddenly break?"
"Xiaoling, go and push that one over from next door."
Fortunately, they were prepared and could immediately activate the backup machine.
However, things did not go as expected. The instrument was working fine during the self-test, so why did it malfunction once it was placed on the abdomen?
This is truly perplexing.
Su Yuxi recalled that she looked the same during her first checkup, and a wave of unease washed over her. She looked at Fu Huaijin with worry in her eyes: "What should we do?"
Fu Huaijin frowned slightly, took the probe from the trembling doctor, and gently placed it on her abdomen. The monitor flickered twice, and just when everyone thought the screen was about to go black again, the monitor miraculously displayed a clear image.
The doctors were the first to breathe a sigh of relief.
They knew that the big boss from above was coming to do an inspection today, and if they couldn't even do a small inspection properly, their hospital would probably be held accountable.
"Sir, let me do it." The doctor reached out to take the hand and continue his work, but before his hand could touch the doctor, Fu Huaijin refused.
"I'll do it, you teach me."
The doctors were all silent, not daring to say a word. They felt that this big boss really doted on his wife. From the moment she came in until now, he had been gently comforting her and now he was even personally performing the procedure.
Su Yuxi saw the doll on the monitor for the first time and was very curious. There were two tiny dots in the small abdominal cavity. Unfortunately, it was not a little fox, but a human-shaped cub.
It seems they inherited it from their father.
Fu Huaijin listened attentively to the doctor's instructions, carefully maneuvering the instrument across his abdomen.
The tiny little ones inside seemed to sense the external probe; each time the probe slid, their little hands and feet would move with it, trying to grab it.
"Sir, look how active the baby in your belly is. These are his little hands and his little feet."
"This young master is in this position; he's quite robust. This young lady is in this position; she's rather delicate..." The female doctor began to explain at length, and the two listened very attentively, their eyes filled with boundless anticipation for the new life.
Time flies by, and an hour has almost passed.
When the test results came out, the two were still incredulous.
They're really going to be parents this time, and the feeling is completely different from when they first learned about the pregnancy. This time, they spent an hour interacting with their baby.
"Little baby, you've inherited everything from me." Su Yuxi pushed all the test results at him, broke free from the man's embrace, and walked quickly forward, feeling very uncomfortable. Neither of them were her little fox cubs.
Fu Huaijin smiled warmly and proudly, caught up with her in a few steps, put his arm around her waist again, and put a picture of the little girl's face in front of her: "No way, she looks just like you. Look at this little nose, isn't it as delicate as yours?"
"And look at these cherry lips, don't they look like yours?"
