Chapter 201 Why don’t you want this child?
So, when I heard the doctor say that I had been pregnant for more than a month and was currently doing well, my heart was full of conflicts and struggles.
This child came at a really bad time.
The doctor asked me as usual: "Do you want this baby?"
I answered almost without thinking, "No."
However, as soon as I finished speaking, Jiang Yichen spoke up and said firmly, "Yes."
Our answers were so different that the doctor was stunned.
I looked at Jiang Yichen. His eyes were full of expectation and determination, which made me even more hesitant.
The doctor looked at us and said, "This is an important question and you two need to discuss it carefully. If you decide to have this child, you must make adequate preparations and plans. If you decide not to have this child, you must deal with it as soon as possible to avoid causing greater harm to your body."
I lowered my head, my heart was in a mess. I knew Jiang Yichen wanted this child very much, but I couldn't convince myself to accept this reality. I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself down.
I calmly responded to the doctor: "Doctor, we will think about this carefully and give you a reply in three days."
After saying that, I ignored Jiang Yichen's face which was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and left the hospital.
Seeing this, Jiang Yichen hurriedly jogged after me, grabbed my wrist tightly, and pulled me back into the car.
I wanted to shake him off and leave alone, but considering my current physical condition, I chose to remain silent, sitting in the car, staring ahead with empty eyes.
Jiang Yichen looked at me sternly and asked, "Why don't you want this child? Just because he is my child, do you think he doesn't deserve to come into this world?"
I shook my head gently, my eyes reddened, and explained helplessly: "This child is born without a name or status, which will only harm him. Do you want him to be a bastard and live his whole life under the criticism of others?"
Jiang Yichen obviously didn't understand your concerns. He retorted, "How can a child of the Jiang family be without a name or status? Being a child of the Jiang family is the greatest status!"
I looked sideways at Jiang Yichen's serious face, and a feeling of powerlessness surged in my heart. You took a deep breath and said, "Even if he is Jiang's flesh and blood, he is just an illegitimate child. Don't forget that we are divorced. If this child is born, he will only be labeled as an illegitimate child and will never be able to get rid of it in his life."
Jiang Yichen's expression changed slightly, and he asked in a low voice: "Have you always been bothered by my status as an illegitimate child, so you have been unwilling to treat me well after marrying me?"
I quickly shook my head and explained, "No, I have never minded your identity. No matter what you were like before, at least you are now the only legitimate son of the Jiang family. However, the child in my belly is different. He may live in the shadow of an illegitimate child for the rest of his life. I don't want my child to bear this. I just hope he can grow up healthy and happy."
However, no matter how I explained, Jiang Yichen wouldn't listen.
He said angrily, "You never consider my feelings and always put others before me. I'm determined to keep this child!"
Looking at his determined look, I was also furious.
I looked out the window, too lazy to argue with him anymore.
No matter how much we quarreled, we tried to act harmonious when we got home.
As soon as I entered the door, my grandmother came up to me excitedly, took my hand, and asked expectantly, "What did the Chinese medicine doctor say? Are you okay?"
The hero was about to tell his grandmother the news of his pregnancy, but was quickly interrupted by you.
I hurriedly interrupted Jiang Yichen and said to grandma: "The doctor said that both of us are in good health and there is nothing serious, so he didn't prescribe Chinese medicine. Maybe we are too nervous at ordinary times. In fact, there is no need to take medicine." As I said this, I winked at Jiang Yichen, signaling him not to talk about pregnancy at this time.
Grandma listened to me and nodded, but she was still a little confused: "Oh, so that's it. Didn't the Chinese medicine doctor say that I need to adjust it?"
I squatted down, looked at grandma at eye level, and explained gently: "Chinese medicine says that both of us are in good condition now. We don't need to take medicine. We just need to keep a good mood and a regular schedule. Grandma, I feel a little uncomfortable. Maybe I'm too tired today. I want to go upstairs and rest for a while."
Grandma looked at me with a distressed look on her face: "Oh, Momo, look at you, you're tired after going out for a while. Go, lie down upstairs and have a rest."
I took the opportunity to smile at my grandmother and turned to go upstairs. As soon as I reached the stairs, I heard my grandmother whisper to Jiang Yichen behind me: "Is it because Momo refused to take the medicine, so you didn't bring the medicine back?"
My heart tightened, fearing that Jiang Yichen would let the cat out of the bag, but fortunately he quickly shook his head and replied, "No, grandma, don't think too much, we are really fine."
However, grandma didn't seem to believe him completely. She looked at Jiang Yichen and asked tentatively, "Did you have a fight? Why did the atmosphere seem a little off when you came back?"
Jiang Yichen was obviously a little overwhelmed by his grandmother's questioning, and he quickly replied: "Grandma, don't think too much, we didn't quarrel. Don't worry, it's okay, I'll go upstairs to see her."
After saying that, he followed me upstairs, leaving grandma alone downstairs, deep in thought.
Suddenly there was a loud noise in the room, followed by my scream. Jiang Yichen got nervous upon hearing the noise, and rushed up the stairs in two steps. He pushed open the door anxiously and saw me sitting on the floor, rubbing my ankle in pain.
He rushed to my side, carefully picked me up, gently placed me on the bed, and asked with concern: "What's wrong? Where did you fall and hurt? Tell me quickly!"
I shook my head slightly and said awkwardly, "It's okay, I just stepped on something and fell accidentally."
Jiang Yichen frowned when he heard this, and said with a hint of reproach in his tone: "Why are you so careless? You are not alone now, you have to be more careful."
I lowered my head and remained silent.
Jiang Yichen seemed to notice something was wrong with me. He gently held my hand and looked at me firmly: "I know what you are thinking, but we must keep this child. He is our flesh and blood, and we cannot deprive him of his right to come into this world."
I raised my head and met Jiang Yichen's eyes, which were full of complicated emotions. I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself down: "I know, but..."
