Chapter 237 Happy Event
He called softly, "Cheng Lu."
Those three words were like a blunt knife, slowly cutting through the calmness she tried so hard to maintain.
There was only a gentle confirmation in his voice, as if he had found something that had been lost for many years.
Wei Chenglu's face turned pale.
She suppressed her trembling fingertips tightly, and a series of questions flashed through her mind.
Who told him I was here?
Who leaked her whereabouts?
Is it Ruan Chuxia?
Impossible, Ruan Chuxia always keeps her mouth shut.
Is it Xiao Zhiyu?
That's not right. He just came back and didn't even inform her in advance.
Guo Huaqin?
It's even more impossible that she has never met Zhang Yongchuan.
That……
There is only one possibility left, Xiao Zhenwu.
She guessed right.
It was indeed Xiao Zhenwu who notified Zhang Yongchuan.
Just yesterday evening, Xiao Zhenwu received a call.
Xiao Zhenwu hesitated for a moment, but finally told Zhang Yongchuan.
It's not that he doesn't understand Wei Chenglu's escape.
But he also knew that some people and some things would have to be faced sooner or later.
Zhang Yongchuan and Xiao Zhenwu often interact with each other.
There was really no other way to make this call.
Zhang Yongchuan looked through his old address book and finally dialed Xiao Zhenwu's number.
He didn't feel bad or embarrassed because he finally found her.
But Wei Chenglu was completely unaware of all this.
Her mind was in a mess and her reason was almost overwhelmed by fear.
She even began to fantasize: If she turned around and rushed out now, would it still be too late?
She involuntarily took a half step back, revealing extreme uneasiness.
The laughter around stopped, and everyone noticed something was wrong.
Xiao Zhenwu laughed dryly twice, trying to ease the atmosphere.
"Let's go in and eat first. It's very cold outside. The rain has splashed in and the floor is wet. If you don't eat it now, the food will get cold, and it won't taste good when it's cold."
People responded and began to move towards the restaurant.
Zhang Yongchuan's eyes were still fixed on her.
There are so many things in that look: fatigue, heartache, and a hint of stubborn persistence.
A group of people walked into the restaurant one after another.
Wei Chenglu seemed to be led by an invisible rope, and walked mechanically.
Zhang Yongchuan was walking diagonally behind her.
A reunion that was delayed for many years quietly began.
Everyone sat down one by one and picked up their chopsticks.
Wei Chenglu gritted his teeth and sat next to Zhang Yongchuan.
Guo Huaqin noticed that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so she quickly spoke with a smile.
"Don't be shy, pick up your chopsticks. Sister Min has carefully prepared several of her signature dishes today. You'd be missing out if you don't try them."
Wei Chenglu felt like he was sitting on needles, feeling uncomfortable all over.
Zhang Yongchuan picked up a piece of braised pork with fat and lean meat and put it into her bowl.
"This used to be your favorite. I remember you could always eat two pieces."
Wei Chenglu stared at the meat in the bowl, and his chest suddenly felt churning.
Just as he was about to speak, he made a "uh..." sound and started to retch.
"Chenglu! What's wrong with you?"
Zhang Yongchuan suddenly became anxious and quickly reached out to pat her on the back.
Ruan Chuxia quickly poured half a cup of warm water and handed it over.
"Drink some water, press it down, don't worry."
Wei Chenglu took two sips and just when he felt his stomach was better, he suddenly vomited again.
Ruan Chuxia felt something was wrong and suddenly remembered something.
"Sister Cheng Lu, have you had your period? Have you been feeling unwell recently?"
"Here I come."
Wei Chenglu answered in a low voice, his face pale.
Upon hearing this, everyone except Zhang Yongchuan was still sitting there with a look of concern on their faces.
Everyone else wisely got up and left the restaurant.
The room was quiet, with only three people left.
Ruan Chuxia also relaxed a little and looked up at Wei Chenglu.
"Did it really come? Is there anything different than usual? Like, is the pain more severe, or did it come earlier?"
"Different? I don't think there's any difference."
Wei Chenglu shook his head.
"It's just that the amount this time was extremely small, almost nothing, just a little bit, and... it also lasted for a short time."
There was a hint of solemnity in Ruan Chuxia's eyes.
Suddenly, she began to feel the patient's pulse.
She looked focused, feeling the slightest pulse fluctuations with her fingertips.
Zhang Yongchuan stood nearby, his heart beating wildly.
He finally couldn't contain his inner anxiety.
"Comrade Ruan Chuxia, what happened to Cheng Lu?"
Ruan Chuxia slowly raised a warm smile at the corner of her mouth.
"Sister Cheng Lu is pregnant. It's only been a month or so. The embryo has already implanted and the condition is very stable."
As soon as the words fell, the whole room fell silent.
Zhang Yongchuan and Wei Chenglu were both stunned, their eyes full of disbelief.
Wei Chenglu thought he had heard wrongly.
"I just got my period this month and the bleeding is quite heavy. How could I possibly be pregnant? Is this a mistake?"
Ruan Chuxia explained patiently.
"Isn't the bleeding too much?"
Wei Chenglu nodded subconsciously: "Well... it's not big, just a little bit, and the color is also relatively light."
"That's right."
Ruan Chuxia nodded.
"At the beginning of pregnancy, some people experience slight vaginal bleeding due to fetal instability. This is medically called 'implantation bleeding.' This bleeding is usually light and different from menstruation. After the first three months, this condition will naturally disappear, and the baby will continue to grow healthier."
"So... I'm really pregnant?"
Wei Chenglu was surprised with a hint of disbelief.
Her hand unconsciously touched her lower abdomen.
This day has been awaited for too long.
Ruan Chuxia's eyes were sincere and gentle.
"It's true, Sister Cheng Lu, you are really pregnant. I have confirmed it, and all the indicators are normal. The most important thing for you now is to get enough rest and keep your mood stable."
Wei Chenglu's eyes couldn't help but become moist.
Zhang Yongchuan is not much better.
Although he was over forty years old, he looked like a silly young man at this moment, slapping his thigh excitedly.
"Great! Chenglu! Did you hear that? You're really pregnant! We're going to be parents! God has mercy on us!"
Wei Chenglu was about to say something when he suddenly retched.
Zhang Yongchuan immediately became nervous.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. Slow down, speak slowly, don't get excited, don't hurt yourself."
Seeing that the two of them had endless things to talk about, Ruan Chuxia tiptoed out of the restaurant.
As soon as she entered the living room, she saw Guo Huaqin, Xiao Zhiyu and Uncle Yuan sitting around the coffee table, eating happily.
Ruan Chuxia couldn't help but smile.
Guo Huaqin found that only Ruan Chuxia came in, and asked hurriedly.
"Xiao Ruan, where are they? Is Cheng Lu okay? Why didn't she come out with you?"
Ruan Chuxia walked over and sat down next to Xiao Zhiyu naturally.
My stomach growled twice and I quickly picked up a dumpling and stuffed it into my mouth.
"fine."
"But didn't she just vomit? What happened?"
There was a hint of uneasiness and worry in Guo Huaqin's tone.
Ruan Chuxia responded vaguely after she swallowed the food.
"Sister Cheng Lu is pregnant."
The living room suddenly became quiet for a moment, as if even the air had frozen.
A hint of astonishment flashed across Guo Huaqin's eyes, then turned into surprise.
Xiao Zhenwu was also stunned for a moment, then quickly grinned.
"Oh, this is great news! Such great news! This trip to Changping was worth it! Our family is reunited, and we have a little life! It's such a blessing!"
He secretly glanced at Xiao Zhiyu who was sitting next to him.
