Chapter 94: HCG Positive
They say a short absence is better than a new marriage, but it was only two months since they last met. When Jiang Yiyu woke up, she felt the first burning pain in her waist and legs.
It turned out to be a good idea not to let Cheng Shuze visit the set in the early stages of filming.
Jiang Yiyu was curled up on the sofa listening to Cheng Shuze say that she was too weak and really needed to replenish her energy. She couldn't help but raise her eyelids and glared at him fiercely.
"Still making up? Didn't you make up enough yesterday?"
She also drank the pot of soup yesterday. Logically, it should have had some effect of replenishing energy and vitality, but the effect was particularly obvious on Cheng Shuze. She felt as if she was completely exhausted and felt dizzy.
The origin of that pot of soup was traced back to He Yue. After finding out the truth, He Yue answered honestly.
"Boss Cheng said Director Jiang, you've been working so hard filming, so he asked someone to make you some nourishing soup. They must have been sent bullwhip soup, a local specialty made with wild yak penis."
It is indeed very nourishing, but it just doesn't benefit her.
Jiang Yiyu secretly gritted her teeth and forced a smile as she thanked them for the arrangement. He Yue didn't dare to ask about the twists and turns in the matter. He hurriedly said that this was something that Mr. Cheng should be concerned about. He didn't even have time to think about what he had said before logging off quickly.
Mr. Cheng came to visit Director Jiang for three days. For some reason, Director Jiang looked more haggard than before when he left.
But after all, we are still filming, and it is normal to feel haggard now that the four-month long cycle has entered the second half. It is also common to be exhausted to the point of being half-human by the end of the project.
After finishing filming in Tianmo, they returned to the filming base to continue shooting. Only when the project was completely wrapped up did Jiang Yiyu finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"Sister! We're done! Want a drink?" After nearly half a year of filming, the film was finally finished. Cheng Shuyi ignored her agent's instructions and opened a bottle of beer to celebrate.
"I don't want to drink it, you drink it." Jiang Yiyu raised the lemon tea in her hand and clinked glasses with her, smiling.
She didn't know why, maybe because she had stayed up all night for several consecutive nights during the final stage and she still hadn't recovered. She had been feeling chest tightness and nausea these past few days. She had wanted to open a bottle of wine to celebrate the completion, but she felt really uncomfortable after smelling the smell, so she just poured some lemonade.
The room was bustling with noise, as the filming had been successfully completed. Even though there was still a lot of trivial work to be dealt with later, everyone, who had always been tense, finally relaxed tonight, causing Jiang Yiyu a headache due to the noise.
"Sister, are you not feeling well?" Cheng Shuyi came over when he saw that she looked a little pale.
"There are too many people, it's noisy." Jiang Yiyun shook her head. "Will you go with me tomorrow?"
"Ah..." Cheng Shuyi curled her lips, "I won't go back. I still have an announcement. Sister, why are you in such a hurry to go back? If it were me, I should have a good time outside for a few days while my brother is away, and then it wouldn't be too late to go back."
Cheng Shuyi tried to persuade Jiang Yiyu to stay in the world of pleasure, but Jiang Yiyu laughed and hit her in the face. In the end, she got on the plane after dinner the next afternoon and landed in Linjiang three hours later.
It was still a sunny day in early summer before departure, but it was already September when I came back. The river was soaked with bursts of autumn rain, and the dense drizzle blew away the stuffiness that had been suppressed in my chest all the way from the airport.
"Ms. Jiang." He Yue greeted her, took the luggage from her hand, and opened the car door for her.
Seeing Cheng Shuze sitting in the car, Jiang Yiyu felt relieved.
"I thought you weren't here."
When Jiang Yiyu saw He Yue coming to pick her up, she thought Cheng Shuze had something urgent to do and couldn't leave.
"How could that be? It's so important to pick you up. Everything else has to be put on hold."
Cheng Shuze let Jiang Yiyu throw herself into his arms and smell his scent. It had been almost a month since they last saw each other since the last visit, and today the project was finally finished.
On the way back to the city from the airport, Jiang Yiyu, who had slept for a while on the plane, felt sleepy again and rested on Cheng Shuze's legs. The car was quiet with only the sound of the warm air and the wipers rubbing against the windshield.
The rain was getting heavier without her noticing, from the gentle drizzle when she got off the plane to bean-sized raindrops rolling down in an instant. The highway back to the city, which usually had few traffic jams, seemed to be gradually becoming congested because of the heavy rain. The red lights at the end of the highway were connected together, and the traffic kept stopping and starting, which made Jiang Yiyu frown. The nausea that had originally subsided began to come back.
Jiang Yiyu sat up, holding her chest.
"Are you feeling unwell?" Cheng Shuze asked sharply, putting his hand on her forehead.
"It's uncomfortable to drive." Jiang Yiyu leaned back against the soft cushion.
She doesn't usually get carsick, but today she not only felt carsick but also felt a little nauseous.
"Ms. Jiang, there may have been an accident ahead and there's a traffic jam." He Yue said apologetically. To be able to drive at such a snail's pace on the highway, it goes without saying that the road must be blocked by someone ahead.
"It's okay." Jiang Yiyu frowned and reached out to press the car window. A damp cool breeze mixed with light rain blew in, dispersing the stuffy atmosphere in the car.
Cheng Shuze: "It's still raining outside, be careful of the cold. He Yue, turn off the air conditioner and turn on the ventilation."
As the warm air conditioner was turned off, the stuffy atmosphere in the car and the air from the outside slowly began to flow, and Jiang Yiyu raised the car window.
She wanted to open the window for some fresh air. Cheng Shuze was afraid that rain would drip in, so he took out his coat and put it on her. The dark fabric was now stained with sweat.
Jiang Yiyu held up the fabric with her hands and draped it over her body, then leaned back onto Cheng Shuze's shoulder tiredly.
"I'm a little tired, I need to sleep for a while."
Cheng Shuze adjusted his posture so that she could lean more comfortably, then touched her forehead again and said softly, "Why don't we go to the hospital? You don't look well."
"No need to go. You're probably tired from staying up all night the past few days. Just go back and rest for a few days and you'll be fine." Jiang Yiyu held Cheng Shuze's warm palm, squeezed it gently, told him to stop talking, and closed his eyes.
She seemed to be asleep, but when she swayed drowsily, she felt a faint cold and cramping sensation in her lower abdomen, which woke her up suddenly.
Not much time had passed and they were still in the car, but the road was a little more open than before and the rain was heavier. The vehicle was moving slowly in the overwhelming rain and fog, and the abdominal pain that had suddenly woken her up in her short dream was actually real and was getting worse.
Jiang Yiyu's hand suddenly tightened, and Cheng Shuze, who was holding her hand, opened his eyes immediately because of her movement.
"Jiang Yiyun!" Cheng Shuze noticed that the person next to him had suddenly turned pale, and his tone changed, "He Yue, go to the hospital immediately."
"Yes." Miss Jiang curled up in pain in the rearview mirror. He Yue was also startled. He stepped on the accelerator and turned on the lights to rush towards the hospital.
"Jiang Yiyu, you feel uncomfortable somewhere." Cheng Shuze suppressed the unknown panic in his voice and remained calm. He felt a layer of slippery cold sweat oozing from the palm of Jiang Yiyu's hand, as if it was frozen by the coldest ice.
"No." The nerves and pain in her head became a mess. Jiang Yiyun unconsciously clasped her hands, her nails digging into the back of Cheng Shuze's hand without her noticing. She took a quick breath and managed to squeeze out a complete sentence. "No need to go to the hospital, it's just a stomachache. Let's go home."
The warm hand gently covered her lower abdomen through a layer of clothing. The temperature was very warm, but it seemed to have no effect on her pain. Jiang Yiyu shrank even tighter.
Cheng Shuze hugged the person curled up in his arms tightly, his voice steady, calmly comforting: "Don't be afraid, let's go to the hospital."
With such a big thing happening suddenly, He Yue almost drove at the maximum speed limit and changed his route to the city center hospital. As soon as he arrived at the hospital, almost as soon as the car stopped, Cheng Shuze covered Jiang Yiyun with his coat, picked her up from the knees, and rushed into the emergency room building in the rain. He Yue, holding an umbrella behind him, hurriedly followed.
Cheng Shuze's posture when rushing into the hospital emergency building was so scary that the doctors and nurses thought he was going to die and rushed over with a flat bed.
Jiang Yiyu, who was held securely in his arms without any shaking, and covered with a coat without getting wet by the rain, forced a tug at the corner of her mouth, wanting him to stop making a fuss. She raised her eyes and saw that Cheng Shuze's face was tense without her knowing it, as if it was soaked in ice. The rain rolled down his black hair and eyebrows, and his pupils concealed the fear that still remained. When he put her on the flat bed, his fingertips were shaking, and suddenly he couldn't say anything.
"Half an hour ago, I suddenly had abdominal pain and broke out in a cold sweat." Cheng Shuze spoke quickly but clearly, "I have no medical history..."
The doctor asked Jiang Yiyu to lie flat on the bed and try to relax, and asked questions while pushing her to the emergency room.
Jiang Yiyu told the doctor about the sudden cold pain she felt, and the doctor asked her to have a blood test and then a urine HCG test.
I don't know if it was a psychological effect, but after entering the hospital, she was not in pain like she was in the car and almost lost consciousness. Blood was drawn from the vein. Jiang Yiyu held the dry cotton ball on her left arm, and Cheng Shuze held the coat draped over her body and sat with her in the waiting area of the hospital.
The suit jacket on Cheng Shuze had already been wet, and now this one was on He Yue.
He Yue went to the coffee bar and bought two cups of steaming hot milk.
Jiang Yiyu felt a little better after taking a sip. It would take about forty minutes to wait for the test results. Jiang Yiyu leaned quietly on Cheng Shuze and watched people running back and forth in the emergency department, anxious, collapsed, grieving, or ecstatic.
Cheng Shuze's heart was beating very fast, and it seemed that it never slowed down.
In the silence, Jiang Yiyun suddenly said: "If the examination reveals..."
"Don't say it." Cheng Shuze stopped her with a suppressed voice, his voice dry, "It's okay."
As if saying it once wasn't enough to reassure people, he repeated, "It's going to be okay."
Jiang Yiyu fell silent, and stroked the purple half-moon bruise on the back of Cheng Shuze's hand with her fingertips. Cheng Shuze, who she had just pinched, didn't even make a sound, as if he didn't feel the pain at all, and now he was sitting there with no intention of dealing with it.
Jiang Yiyu once again grasped Cheng Shuze's still slightly trembling fingertips.
The report came out very quickly. Cheng Shuze printed it on the machine and read it carefully after returning.
The first blood test did not seem to have any major problems, except that the neutrophil count was significantly elevated.
The second urine HCG test result showed:
Positive.
