Seeing Qian Duoduo's state, Lu Yuan jumped up from his seat and said with concern, "We need to change into clean clothes quickly. I'll take you to the hospital to get checked out!" Qian Duoduo had regained some of her senses by now. She waved gently at Lu Yuan, signaling him to come over. Upon seeing this, Lu Yuan immediately ran to Qian Duoduo like a happy little puppy.
Qian Duoduo said weakly, "Let's wait until tomorrow. I don't want to eat anything right now, I just want to get some sleep." Lu Yuan carefully examined Qian Duoduo's face and found that her complexion was rosy, not at all like someone who had just vomited several times. So he guessed that it was probably due to the fatigue from traveling all day, and thought that she should rest well first.
Then, Lu Yuan carefully helped Qian Duoduo back to the bedroom and gently settled her on the bed. Although Qian Duoduo was somewhat reluctant, she eventually lay down obediently under Lu Yuan's insistence. After repeatedly telling her to rest well, Lu Yuan turned and left to prepare some delicious food for her to nourish her body.
Once the road was far away, Qian Duoduo quickly got up, looked around to make sure no one was there, and then slipped into her secret space. Once inside, she anxiously found Su Ruanruan and bought three pregnancy test strips without a word. Clutching the strips tightly, she silently prayed that this time, heaven would be merciful!
After emerging from that mysterious space, Qian Duoduo eagerly picked up the instruction manual and began studying the usage of the items in the space word by word. After a while, she seemed to finally understand some of the tricks, then selected a small and exquisite object and turned to walk towards the restroom.
A moment later, when Qian Duoduo reappeared, her face was full of confusion. She looked as if she had encountered some incomprehensible problem, but in the end, she could not resist the strong drowsiness, dragged her slightly tired body to bed, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
Just then, Lu Yuan returned home after a busy day at work. As soon as he opened the door, his gaze was instantly drawn to the scene on the bed—Qian Duoduo looked like a beautiful, peacefully sleeping princess, delicate and captivating. Lu Yuan couldn't help but smile slightly, gently walked to the bedside, carefully picked up Qian Duoduo, and together they snuggled into the warm covers. Accompanied by their even breathing, they slowly drifted into a sweet dream.
However, the next morning, as the first rays of sunlight streamed through the window and onto the bed, Lu Yuan slowly woke up. He rubbed his sleepy eyes, and as soon as he opened them, he was surprised to find that Qian Duoduo had gotten up early and was sitting upright on the edge of the bed. At that moment, she was tightly holding two thin, long objects in her hands, her brows furrowed, looking as if she was deep in thought.
Upon seeing this, Lu Yuan's heart tightened, and he quickly straightened up, sitting upright as if by magic. He narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a hint of concern and doubt in them, and then carefully stretched out his strong and powerful arm to gently embrace Qian Duoduo's slender waist, which seemed as if a gust of wind could break it.
At this moment, Lu Yuan's voice became slightly languid, but it contained deep love and care. He asked softly, "Wife, what's wrong? You look so worried so early in the morning. Is something bothering you? Tell your husband!"
Hearing Lu Yuan's gentle words, Qian Duoduo felt a warmth in her heart. She slowly handed the object she was clutching to Lu Yuan and gently placed it in his large, warm palm. Lu Yuan stared at the unfamiliar object in his hand with suspicion, his brows furrowed, and asked blankly, "Wife, what is this thing? It looks strange."
Qian Duoduo pursed her lips, took a deep breath, and replied, "This is a pregnancy test strip, or simply a pregnancy test stick. If it shows one line, it means you're not pregnant; if it shows two lines, it means you're pregnant. Look at mine first, it only has one line and it's very clear. And look at these two you're holding..."
Following Qian Duoduo's instructions, Lu Yuan slowly lowered his head, focusing his gaze on the small piece of paper in his hand. In an instant, he felt an invisible pressure as heavy as Mount Tai crushing an egg, and the pregnancy test in his hand suddenly felt like a thousand-pound burden, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.
On the pregnancy test, besides the first clearly visible red line, another line was faintly visible. Although this line was lighter in color, it was still easily discernible. Lu Yuan stared wide-eyed at the pregnancy test, his face filled with astonishment, as if he had seen something unbelievable.
He immediately raised his head, staring straight at Qian Duoduo sitting on the edge of the bed, and stammered, "Wife...wife, what...what does this mean?"
Qian Duoduo looked at Lu Yuan, who was stammering and extremely nervous, and couldn't help but chuckle. She gave Lu Yuan a playful glare, then whispered, "Silly boy, congratulations! We're having a baby, you're going to be a dad!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan was completely stunned, and it took him a while to recover. He still murmured in disbelief, "This...when did this happen?"
Qian Duoduo tilted her head slightly, thought carefully for a moment, and then replied, "Well, if we're going by the timeline, it should be around the time you just got back."
Lu Yuan frowned slightly and asked in confusion, "But I've been back for over a month, how come it's only now that I've noticed?"
Qian Duoduo rolled her eyes at him, annoyed, and explained, "Pregnancy isn't something you can tell immediately! Nobody knows they're pregnant right away. Usually, you have to wait at least a month. And even now, these two lines aren't very obvious. If my period hadn't been late this month, I probably wouldn't have imagined becoming a mother so soon."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Yuan suddenly jumped out of bed as if he had been injected with chicken blood, opened his arms and hugged Qian Duoduo, starting to spin around in a loving embrace.
Qian Duoduo could sense his happiness and said coquettishly, "Hey, what are you doing? Don't stretch!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan seemed frozen in place, immediately stopping his spinning. Then, as if remembering something, he swiftly and gracefully, like a prince in a fairy tale, swept Qian Duoduo into a princess carry and carefully placed her on the soft, comfortable bed. Afterward, Lu Yuan skillfully picked up a neatly folded blanket and gently covered Qian Duoduo with it.
After completing this series of actions, Lu Yuan leaned down with a gentle expression and asked softly, "Wife, what do you want to eat? I'll go buy groceries now and cook for you when I get back."
When Qian Duoduo saw Lu Yuan saying he was going to buy groceries and cook, but unconsciously rubbing his hands and stamping his feet while continuing to spin around the house like a child, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.
