Chapter 274: The Villain’s Tool Aunt (20)
"Huo Shichu?" Li Yan thought for a long time before finally remembering, "So she's the daughter of the Huo family. But I heard that the Huo family is not doing well now. When the family members passed away, only the elderly, the weak, women and children were left, and the company was almost lost..."
At this point, Li Yan seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly his face looked a little bad. He said, "Could it be that she saw that her family's company was not doing well, so she deliberately came to you to find a backer?"
When Fu Bojian heard him say that, his face darkened and he said coldly, "Don't think Shi Chu is so snobbish. She has nothing to do with the Huo family now, and the life and death of the Huo family company is none of her business."
"Ah? What's going on?" Li Yan scratched his head. He breathed a sigh of relief when he heard his friend say that Huo Shichu was not with him because of his company. Then he became curious about why Huo Shichu broke up with the Huo family.
However, this was Huo Shichu's private matter, and Fu Baijian couldn't tell anyone about it without her consent, even if Li Yan was his good friend. Therefore, he just said lightly: "It's the Huo family who let her down, not her."
"That's good. That's what I told you. The person you like doesn't have any problems with character." Li Yan believed him easily after hearing what he said, because he believed in his friend's judgment.
"When will you bring her to meet us friends?" Li Yan asked again.
"It depends on her wishes." Fu Bojian said, thinking of Huo Shichu's personality of not liking others to make decisions for her.
"Tsk tsk, I find that you, Fo Baijian, are like a different person after you started dating. Aren't you the one who has the final say in everything usually? How come now that I ask you to bring your girlfriend out, you can't make the decision?" Li Yan said deliberately, shaking his head.
Fu Baijian snorted and said, "I'm respecting her. What do you, who doesn't have a girlfriend, know?"
Seeing his smug look, Li Yan was so angry that his teeth itched: "Is it great to have a girlfriend? Just wait, it won't be long before I can find one too!"
Fu Bojian looked at him with disdain and said, "Even if you can find him, he won't be as good as Shichu in my family."
Li Yan has had many girlfriends, but most of them are female celebrities in the entertainment industry. Changing girlfriends is like changing clothes. They are only interested in sex, not love. Naturally, they are not as good as Huo Shichu.
Li Yan didn't expect that Fo Bojian would start to show off his wife after they started dating. He would show off to him from time to time: Huo Shichu felt sorry for him because he worked hard to cook and gave him a massage; Huo Shichu saw that he liked to eat grapefruit, so he bought him some rare grapefruit from somewhere; Huo Shichu bought him clothes, and praised his hairstyle...
Li Yan was choked by the dog food he force-fed him and almost blocked him on WeChat.
Huo Shichu had no idea that Fo Bojian was a shy and reserved person who loved to show off his affection. She had been feeling unwell these past few days. Her chest felt stuffy from time to time, and even something moved in her abdomen from time to time. She was so scared that she thought she had parasites or a tumor in her stomach.
There is no spiritual energy in this world, so she practiced martial arts and was able to develop internal strength, but she could not see through her own body, so she could only use the most ancient method of taking the pulse to diagnose.
However, when she felt her pulse, she was so shocked that her eyes suddenly widened. This... This is clearly a slippery pulse! She couldn't believe it and felt her pulse again. However, no matter how many times she felt it, the pulse showed that she was really pregnant.
Huo Shichu suddenly didn't know whether to be surprised or happy.
She and Fobeijian always wore condoms when they had sex at night, but she never expected that the pitifully low contraceptive failure rate would occur to her.
During this period, she ate well and slept well. There was no sign of pregnancy at all. Even her period came on time every month, but the amount was less, which was normal, so she didn't think she was pregnant.
Although she still had a small belly, she thought it was just because Fo Baijian's cooking skills had improved recently, and she couldn't control her diet and didn't exercise enough, so she gained weight. She never expected that it was not fat, but a small bean.
If she hadn't felt a little uncomfortable these past few days and something hadn't moved in her stomach, she would never have thought of checking her body. After all, who would go for a check-up for no reason if they were in good health?
Huo Shichu let out a long sigh. The fetus was moving, and she, a careless mother, only then realized the existence of the child... No, she just thought it was a tumor or a parasite.
Thinking of this, she felt a little guilty and hoped that the baby in her belly would never know that she had such thoughts.
The fetal movement meant that the fetus was four or five months old. Since it had come, Huo Shichu would not be so cruel as to abort it. Besides, she could afford to raise a child, so after only a brief moment of hesitation, she happily accepted the fact.
But she still has to go to the hospital for a prenatal check-up, so she can't be lazy about it anymore.
Before going for the prenatal check-up, she had to inform Fo Bojian, her biological father, first. So after dinner, Huo Shichu pulled Fo Bojian to her side, took his hand, and placed it on her belly.
"What? You want it?" Fo Baijian immediately misunderstood, raised his eyebrows and said meaningfully, his hand had already slipped into Huo Shichu's clothes.
Huo Shichu glared at him, held down his moving hands, and said, "Don't move, put your hands on my stomach obediently, don't move unless I tell you to!"
Seeing this, Fu Baijian had no choice but to stay still. He also took the initiative to find an excuse for Huo Shichu: "Your period is coming. Let me help you warm your stomach?"
Huo Shichu didn't say anything. Just let him misunderstand for now. After a while, when the baby in his belly moved, he would naturally know the reason.
Coincidentally, she was a person whose pregnancy was not very obvious. Even after five months of pregnancy, her belly was only a small piece and there was no sign of a baby.
After Fu Bojian had been holding Huo Shichu's stomach for more than ten minutes, he suddenly felt something moving under his palm. All the hair on his body stood up immediately, and his expression, which had always remained calm in the face of a catastrophe, changed. He asked in a rare moment of loss of composure, "You, is there something moving in your stomach?!"
As he spoke, he hurriedly touched Huo Shichu's stomach all over, and sure enough, he felt the movement in his palm again.
"Shi Chu, let's go to the hospital now. Medical technology is developing rapidly now. There won't be any serious problem with your illness. Maybe you have a tumor..." Although he said this, his face was extremely ugly, his brows were tightly furrowed, his expression was not as relaxed as his words, and his hands were shaking a little.
When Huo Shichu saw his nervous face, he didn't think about her pregnancy at all. He just thought she was sick, so he couldn't help but burst out laughing and said, "Don't worry, I don't have a tumor, I have a child."
"W-what?" Fu Bojian asked unconsciously, as if he didn't understand what she said. Then his pupils suddenly contracted, and he grabbed Huo Shichu's shoulders and asked excitedly, "Are you pregnant?!"
Seeing that he finally reacted, Huo Shichu nodded and said, "Yes, so that was fetal movement just now, not a tumor."
Fu Baijian seemed to be floating on the clouds, feeling dizzy, surprised and happy. He just held Huo Shichu tightly with one hand and placed the other on her belly, with a heart full of excitement and joy.
