Chapter 275: The Villain’s Tool Aunt (21)
After Fo Bojian knew Huo Shichu was pregnant, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep the whole night. He kept touching Huo Shichu's belly with his hands and there was no time for him to be quiet. Huo Shichu was woken up by him from time to time. Huo Shichu was so angry that she couldn't help but kick him under the bed.
"Do you need to be so excited?" Huo Shichu said, glaring at Fo Baijian, who was kicked off the bed by her but still had a smile on his face.
"How can I not be excited? I can't sleep at all when I think about your child and mine in your belly... I wish it would come out right away." Fu Baijian was not angry at all even after being kicked off the bed. He had completely turned into a silly father.
Huo Shichu was speechless. He never expected that after he knew he was going to be a father, he would no longer be as steady as usual. Instead, he became as childish as if he was a dozen years younger.
Fu Bojian patted his clothes, climbed back onto the bed, and went upstairs to Huo Shichu again, saying, "Don't move so violently. What if you hurt the baby? If you want to kick me, wait until the baby is born."
Huo Shichu rolled his eyes at him, slapped his hand that was about to touch him, and said through gritted teeth: "If you disturb my sleep again, let alone kick you, I can also kick you out of the house, go back downstairs and sleep by yourself!"
Threatened by Huo Shichu, Fo Bojian had to regretfully withdraw his eager hand. He didn't want to go back to his deserted downstairs. What he pursued now was a wife, children and a warm bed.
Without the noise from Fo Baijian, Huo Shichu was finally able to fall asleep.
When she woke up the next morning, Fu Bojian had already prepared breakfast. Seeing that she got up, he was very helpful and carried her to the bathroom to wash up, so she didn't have to walk by herself.
In fact, if Huo Shichu hadn't insisted on brushing his teeth himself, Fu Bojian would have wanted to do it for him.
"Is it necessary to be so exaggerated?" Huo Shichu asked, looking at the man who treated him like a porcelain doll.
"How is that an exaggeration? I have ignored you in the past few months. I have to make up for it now," said Fo Baijian righteously.
"There's no need to do this, right? You were so attentive, I thought I was a cripple." Huo Shichu slapped away his hand that was trying to carry him to the restaurant.
"Don't say those two words! It will bring bad luck. It will not be good for the children to hear them." Fu Baijian said to Huo Shichu with a serious face.
Huo Shichu could not help but sigh and covered his eyes. He felt that Fo Baijian was really going crazy. Such a talented young man was now becoming superstitious.
After breakfast, Fo Bojian called his assistant and told him that he would not go to work that morning and would postpone the work to the afternoon.
Huo Shichu was not surprised at all, because she was going for a prenatal check-up and there was no way Fu Bojian would miss it.
Fo Bojian went to a private hospital, which happened to be owned by his childhood friend Li Yan's family. Therefore, as soon as Huo Shichu entered, he was surrounded by a group of medical staff. The scene was very exaggerated. If Huo Shichu hadn't known that he was here for a prenatal check-up, he would have thought that a major operation involving human life was going to be performed.
"The baby is very healthy. Look, the two little feet are so strong that they are kicking the mother's belly." The kind obstetrician moved the B-ultrasound probe on Huo Shichu's belly, and looked at the image of the little guy on the computer, and couldn't help laughing.
Huo Shichu couldn't help but stretch her neck to look over there, and sure enough, she saw a small fetus with a big head, using its little feet to hold the baby. Even though it didn't look very good, in her eyes, it was very cute and interesting.
And the future father, Fo Bojian, was even more excited. He stared at the screen without blinking, with the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously, and he was so excited that he was at a loss.
"This, this is our child..." His dry voice came out of his throat, his heart beating wildly, staring at the big-headed fetus on the screen and not daring to blink.
"Yes, it's very lively and active, but it will be more difficult for the mother." The obstetrician is used to seeing the excitement of expectant fathers when they see the fetus for the first time, and explained gently, "The baby is five months old and has entered a period of frequent fetal movements. The father must understand the difficulties of the mother during pregnancy, treat her well, and keep her in a good mood. In this way, both the child and the mother can live better."
"I will treat them well..." Fu Baijian promised solemnly.
In the end, he stared at the lively little fetus for more than ten minutes. If the doctor had not stopped, he would have stared at it for the whole day.
Finally, the doctor comforted him and said that he would print out the fetal images for him and he could look at them as long as he wanted. Only then did Fo Bojian reluctantly end his first unilateral meeting with his child.
"Shi Chu, let's get married. The child cannot be born without a legitimate status. It is the legitimate next generation of mine, Fo Baijian. I can't bear to have any flaws in its birth. What do you think?" In the parking lot of the hospital, Fo Baijian sat in the driver's seat and asked nervously.
Huo Shichu glanced at him calmly and said, "You just want to marry me so that your child can be born legitimately?"
When Fu Bojian heard her question, his eyes widened instantly. Even though he didn't have a high EQ, he knew that this was a matter of life and death! So he shook his head and said, "Of course it's not just this! The most important reason why I want to marry you is that I love you and want to spend my whole life with you. The second reason is because of the child. If it was just because of the child, and I had no feelings for you or didn't have deep feelings for you, I would never marry you..."
When Fo Bojian said this, his expression became nervous, and he was obviously anxious and worried, fearing that Huo Shichu really misunderstood that he wanted to marry her because of the child.
Fortunately, Huo Shichu is not a person who likes to dwell on trivial matters, so she just sighed and said, "Actually, I don't care whether I get married or not. If I didn't have a child, I might really never get married in my life. But unfortunately, now that I have a child in my belly, I can't be so willful.
In fact, if the father of the child is just an ordinary man, then I can still give birth to the child without getting married, but who makes you an ordinary man? If I give birth to a child without marrying you, the child will definitely suffer humiliation at a young age and be called a bastard... I don't want it to suffer these, so I refuse to marry you and give the child a legitimate birth. "
When Fo Bojian heard her say "illegitimate child" and "bastard", his face instantly darkened. He knew that Huo Shichu's worries were correct. His family background meant that his children would not be able to live a peaceful life like ordinary people. Instead, they were destined to live in the eyes of others and be constantly scrutinized. If his parents really didn't get married, they would definitely suffer humiliation.
How could he bear to let his child suffer such an injustice? Fu Bojian held Huo Shichu's hand tightly. Fortunately, the child's mother was like him. She couldn't bear to let the child go through unnecessary hardships and was willing to do anything to protect it.
