Chapter 201 Discovery
"I know, Brother Xu is here, I won't talk to you for now." Lin Wan said and hung up the phone in a hurry.
This was the first night moving into the new home. Xu Qingsui tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep. Endless loneliness swallowed her like the darkness of the night.
Putting my hand gently on my abdomen, there is a tiny life inside, and the feeling is very wonderful.
After spending two weeks in anxiety, Xu Qingsui took a day off and went to the nearest hospital to see a gynecologist.
After an ultrasound, it was found that the fetus already had a heartbeat and embryo bud, and the embryo was developing normally. After hearing the doctor's words, Xu Qingsui finally put his heart back into his stomach, which had been hanging in the balance for many days.
Following the doctor's advice, Xu Qingsui registered at this hospital and only needed to come for prenatal checkups once a month from then on.
The temperature is getting warmer and warmer. After the beginning of spring, as the late spring cold weather passes, the sun is shining every day. The whole city is filled with the faint fragrance of flowers, the earth is full of spring, and the scene is thriving.
As the temperature gradually rises, people wear less and less clothes, and Xu Qingsui is no exception.
But her growing belly could no longer be hidden by the decreasing amount of clothes she wore.
She didn't dare to wear tight clothes at all. She either wore sportswear or skirts. She is only four or five months pregnant, but her belly is already so big. In another month or two, she will definitely not be able to hide it.
During lunch that day, Xu Wanshan looked her up and down, then asked, "Junior sister, I noticed that you seem to have gained weight in the past two months."
Xu Qingsui smiled awkwardly: "I feel the same way."
After saying that, she lowered her head guiltily and continued to eat. After waiting for a while, she raised her head again, thought for a while and said, "Brother, most of this collection has been restored. I think I will stop doing it after a while."
"Oh?" Xu Wanshan asked doubtfully, "Is there something else that's delaying you?"
"Yes, that's right." Xu Qingsui was also very ashamed. Senior Brother Xu was very good to her. It was reasonable to do things from beginning to end. It was not kind of him to run away halfway through.
But she had no choice but to apologize to her senior brother.
Seeing that Xu Qingsui seemed to be worried, Xu Wanshan guessed that it might be related to Huo Xilin.
"It's been so long since the incident happened, why do you still keep thinking about him?" Xu Wanshan said with a sigh.
Xu Qingsui knew who he was talking about: "Brother, it has nothing to do with him. I have let it go. Mainly because I have some personal matters to deal with, so I can no longer be competent for the work here. I'm sorry, brother."
"We don't say polite words to each other." Xu Wanshan thought for a moment and said, "How about this, after you repair the last few paintings, you can hand them over and I'll find an assistant to help me."
Xu Wanshan found someone very quickly, and the next day a young man came, who was not much older than the two of them.
"Let me introduce you. This is my cousin Tang Cheng. He studied archaeology before and has been studying with me since graduation. He went abroad to study for a year last year and just came back." Xu Wanshan introduced Tang Cheng to Xu Qingsui: "You can hand over the rest of the work to him."
"Hello, Mr. Tang." Xu Qingsui greeted politely.
"This is my junior sister Xu Qingsui. Don't be fooled by her young age, she is extremely talented. You should learn from her well." Xu Wanshan introduced her to his cousin.
Tang Cheng was a shy boy, and he quickly said, "Hello, Senior Sister Xu, from now on, just call me Xiao Cheng, that's what my family and friends call me."
Mr. Tang, it makes him feel embarrassed to call him that.
Seeing Tang Cheng's shy look, Xu Qingsui immediately thought of his younger brother, and felt inexplicably close to him. He smiled and nodded: "Okay, Xiaocheng."
Tang Cheng is a person with a strong learning ability. If there is something he doesn't understand, Xu Qingsui will give him a little guidance and he will understand it, and the work will be handed over and completed quickly.
After quitting her job, Xu Qingsui stayed at home to take care of her pregnancy.
That day, Qin Fang called: "Qingsui, I heard that you resigned?"
Since helping Xu Qingsui move that day, Qin Fang and Xu Wanshan exchanged contact information. Qin Fang was busy these days and seldom came to see Xu Qingsui. Sometimes when he wanted to know about her recent situation, he would ask Xu Wanshan indirectly. As time went by, the two became good friends.
Naturally, it was Xu Wanshan who told Xu Qingsui about his resignation this time.
Everything is fine, why would you resign?
Seeing that Huo Xilin and Yan Xisui's wedding date is approaching, Qin Fang is very worried that Xu Qingsui will be affected.
"Yeah." Xu Qingsui didn't intend to hide it, and said, "I have some personal matters to deal with, so it's not convenient for me to continue working here."
"So you are leaving this city?" Qin Fang asked anxiously.
"No, who said I was leaving?"
"Why did you quit if you didn't leave? Or did you find another job?"
Facing Qin Fang's series of questions, Xu Qingsui sighed and said, "Brother Qin, are you free? Let's have a meal together and talk in detail."
"Okay, I'll pick you up tonight and we'll go out for dinner."
In the evening, when Qin Fang stood at the door of Xu Qingsui's house and saw the person who came to open the door for him, he was so shocked that he remained speechless for a long time.
He looked at Xu Qingsui's unchanged face, then at her plump body and slightly bulging belly. His heart skipped a beat and countless swear words were about to burst out of his mind.
Fortunately, he still had some sanity and finally held back.
"Is the child Huo Xilin's?" Qin Fang walked into the room, sat on the sofa, and drank two large glasses of water before asking.
Xu Qingsui sat opposite him, silent.
She herself knew that it was not a wise decision to give birth to this child, but she really couldn't bear to give up. Even if she became a single mother, she had already prepared for the hardships. No matter what the final result was, at least she did not regret it.
Qin Fang took another deep breath, trying to keep himself calm, and asked, "Does he know?"
Xu Qingsui shook his head and said, "The decision to give birth to this child is my own business. It has nothing to do with him. Brother Qin, you must not tell him."
"Are you stupid?" Qin Fang was almost mad. He could no longer control himself and kept saying, "Do you know how difficult it is to be a single mother? Have you ever thought about how you would answer your child if he asks you who his father is? What if Huo Xilin finds out one day and wants to fight you for the custody of the child? What would you do?"
Xu Qingsui had never thought about this question.
She subconsciously protected her belly. The child was hers, and even Huo Xilin couldn't take the child away from her.
"So Brother Qin, you must not tell him. Right now, you are the only one who knows that I'm pregnant. Even my brother and Lin Wan don't know. As long as you don't tell him, they won't know!" Xu Qingsui said almost pleadingly.
All of Qin Fang's anger disappeared in an instant.
