Jiang Xiaoyan was taken aback by these words, then overjoyed, and asked, "You won't come anymore after you get pregnant?"
Zhang Fengxia chuckled as she held the phone, saying with a smile, "Of course! This is basic physiological knowledge, you don't know it?"
"I've never been pregnant, how would I know?" Jiang Xiaoyan was both happy and felt silly.
"You should go to the hospital for a checkup. I think there's a good chance you're pregnant. By the way," Zhang Fengxia asked with a hint of gossip, "when was the last time you two were together?"
"It was after I finished taking a few doses of medicine, in the last few days of last month," Jiang Xiaoyan recalled.
"What position?"
"Go away!" Jiang Xiaoyan blushed at her question and said, "What are you thinking about all day long? You're so obsessed with men that you're just teasing me."
"If I don't tease you, who else would I tease? If I teased Lu Feng, he would scold me to death. Last time I went a little too far with my joke, and he gave me a long lecture with a stern face," Zhang Fengxia complained.
"You should find a man. All you ever do is think about what other people have."
"I'm only eyeing what's in your bowl," Zhang Fengxia joked.
"Okay, if I get pregnant, I'll lend you ten months. I'll go to the hospital for a checkup first. If I really am pregnant, I..." Jiang Xiaoyan was a little excited, feeling like Fan Jin who had just passed the imperial examination, finally getting what she had hoped for after many years.
"Hurry up and go. If you give birth next year, how about I borrow your child for a few days and become her godmother?"
"We're like sisters, I'm going to the hospital now," Jiang Xiaoyan said before hanging up the phone.
Zhang Fengxia put down the phone, her eyes filled with dejection. She sat there for a while, took a deep breath, and opened the locked drawer on her desk. Inside was a resignation letter.
She looked at it for a while, then locked the drawer again.
Around 4 PM, Jiang Xiaoyan received her test report. The doctor handed it to her and said, "Congratulations! You're over 20 days pregnant, which is a month along. You might experience morning sickness and drowsiness. Don't be too stressed. Avoid heavy work, alcohol, and smoking. Pay attention to your diet, maintain a regular lifestyle, and engage in appropriate physical activity."
"I...I'm pregnant?" Jiang Xiaoyan asked in disbelief.
"Yes, congratulations, Ms. Jiang. Based on your previous medical records, we recommend that you take extra care to maintain the pregnancy and keep your emotions in good spirits." The doctor looked at her with a smile.
"Thank you so much, thank you so much, you've worked so hard." Jiang Xiaoyan beamed with joy, not knowing how to express her happiness, and was a little flustered.
"Just come to the hospital for regular check-ups."
When Jiang Xiaoyan returned home and saw Aunt Liu, she happily exclaimed, "Aunt Liu, I'm pregnant! I just had a checkup!"
"Really? That's wonderful!" Aunt Liu exclaimed upon hearing the good news. "Please sit down and take good care of yourself during your pregnancy. Call Mr. Lu and tell him the good news."
Jiang Xiaoyan sat down and thought for a moment before saying, "I'll call my mother-in-law first."
The call connected, and Jiang Xiaoyan, with an air of arrogance, said into the phone, "Mom, it's me, Xiaoyan. What are you doing here?"
"Xiaoyan, I didn't do anything, just washed some dirty clothes. What's wrong? Is something the matter?"
"I just went to the hospital for a checkup, and I'm pregnant!" Jiang Xiaoyan felt extremely relieved when she said the words "pregnant," letting out all the resentment she had been holding in for the past few days.
"What? What did you say? You're pregnant?"
"Yes, she's pregnant!"
"Oh my god, you old man, stop lying there! Xiaoyan is pregnant!" Lu Feng's mother shouted at her husband, her voice already out of control, the shrill sound echoing throughout the small villa.
"What?"
"Xiaoyan, Mom will come take care of you. Lu Feng isn't here either. Mom will pack her things now and come over to tidy up your room and cook you something." The person on the other end of the phone was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, wishing she could appear by Jiang Xiaoyan's side immediately and pamper her to the fullest.
Hearing her mother-in-law's voice on the phone, Jiang Xiaoyan felt incredibly happy and said, "No need, I've hired a nanny, she's doing just fine, and you're not used to living here anyway."
Jiang Xiaoyan didn't want them to come. She was used to being free and independent, and she knew they would make her uncomfortable.
It took a lot of persuasion to convince Lu Feng's parents not to come. On the other end of the phone, the elderly couple leaned close to the phone to listen. Lu Feng's mother asked, "Xiaoyan, do you have any money? Don't treat us badly. If you don't have any, just say so. I still have quite a bit saved up here. I'll transfer it to you."
"No need, I have money on hand, don't worry."
All that seemed to remain on the other end of the phone was a boundless concern, sweeping away all the previous worries. After hanging up, Jiang Xiaoyan called her family.
Jiang Xiaoyan's mother also insisted on coming over and told Jiang Xiaoyan to take good care of the pregnancy, so that she could take over the family's financial power while she was pregnant.
Jiang Xiaoyan spent a long time dealing with the situation before hanging up and calling Lu Feng back.
Inside the hotel, Lu Feng changed into a suit and tie, his hair neatly combed, looking every bit the upper class. He was ready to leave when his phone rang.
Lu Feng casually answered the phone, "Who is this?"
"Guess who I am?" Jiang Xiaoyan's voice on the other end of the phone was filled with joy.
Lu Feng had never seen Jiang Xiaoyan like this before, and said with a smile, "You're too hard to guess. Who are you?"
"Can't you recognize my voice?" Jiang Xiaoyan asked, getting a little anxious.
"It sounds like my wife, doesn't it? But my wife is really fierce, she couldn't possibly be this gentle," Lu Feng said deliberately.
"You! When did I ever get mean?" Jiang Xiaoyan said irritably, "I have some good news for you, do you want to hear it or not?"
