He was too busy to notice some details. At the end of April, Sophie suddenly found Li Du and said, "My period did not come."
Li Du's father immediately understood what she meant and quickly said, "God! I'll take you to the hospital for a check-up! "
Sophie handed him a small piece of hard paper and smiled brightly. "No need to go to the hospital. I can do it myself. Don't forget I'm a surgeon."
Looking at the red bar, Li Du felt a little dizzy. "You, you, you're pregnant?"
Sophie smiled brightly. "According to my experience, my tests, and my intuition, you guessed right."
Li Du did not know what to say for a moment, but subconsciously hugged Sophie tightly. Hugging this girl with a bright smile, he felt satisfied.
The diamond mine, the jade mine, the opal mine, the money and gems, the conflict of interest, all seemed insignificant at this moment!
He immediately called Big Ivan. "Pack up, go back to Los Angeles."
Big Ivan said, "Okay, boss, when?"
"Go back as fast as you can!"
Li Du also began to pack up, and Sophie came up to help. The two of them packed a few suitcases and distributed them to the naughty children. The naughty children dragged the suitcases with their mouths and quickly went out.
He went to inform his parents. "Pack up, go back to Los Angeles."
Li Du's father was watching TV on the sofa and laughing. When he heard Li Du's words, he wondered, "Why are you suddenly going back? Why didn't you tell me in advance? "
Li Du's mother said, "We're not going to Los Angeles. We're going home. We're almost moving …"
"Sophie is pregnant," Li Du said simply.
Li Du's father immediately stood up. "Hurry up, this island is beautiful, but it's too damp, and it's going to be winter soon, right? Hurry up, Sophie has to go somewhere warm and dry now! "
Li Du's mother said, "What's there to pack? What else is there to pack except for a few clothes? Where's the plane? Let's get on the plane and go straight back. Have you booked a hospital? Is Sophie sick now? "
Everything was out of plan, but the helicopter was quickly filled with luggage. Everyone got on the plane, and Big Ivan pulled the lever and the helicopter took off.
Aubrey was in charge of the mining on the island, and Su Nan was in charge of the tourism promotion. Li Du had nothing to do there.
The helicopter flew to Melbourne. The private plane booked by Li Du arrived on the same day. After refueling, the plane soared into the sky. This time, its destination was Los Angeles.
Li Du's father pondered. "Are we going to Los Angeles? A child born this way would be American, right? I don't think it's a good idea. Why don't we go back home? "
Mother Li immediately rejected the idea. "What kind of city is Los Angeles? The medical environment in one of the largest cities in the world is much worse than back home? Sophie risked her life just for a nationality? Besides, when Sophie goes back to her hometown, she won't even see anyone with the same hair color. She'll be in a bad mood. That's not good. "
Li Du said, "Let the children choose their own nationality in the future. They might not have to give birth in Los Angeles. They might also go back to Australia. I just thought about it. Sophie's due date in Australia is just entering autumn. The environment is more comfortable than Los Angeles. "
Li Du's father sighed. "But our Li family has been passed down from our hometown for so many generations. We have to let our children have roots."
"Does your Li family have a throne to pass on?" Li Du's mother said disdainfully, "Let's wait for the birth of the child first. Now that the child is not born yet, why do you want the root?"
Sophie said to Li Du, "Persuade them. They haven't even confirmed the condition of the child. Why are they quarreling?"
Li Du waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about it. This is affection. They have been quarreling all these years."
Back in Los Angeles, Sophie first went to the hospital for a check-up.
Li Du wanted to go to the best obstetrics and gynecology hospital in the City of Angels, Whittier Hospital, for a check-up. Sophie felt that it was not necessary. Whittier Hospital required an appointment, so Sophie randomly chose a large hospital for a check-up.
A series of test results came out. Sophie was indeed pregnant, and the results were normal. As long as the baby was safe, she would go for a check-up at the agreed time.
The focus of the family began to lean towards this unborn little life. Occasionally, Li Du would still go to some social events and auctions. Sophie was pregnant, and he was in a good mood. He helped others at auctions, and the treasure hunters who were close to him made a lot of money.
With the help of the auction on the sea, Li Du became a member of the Warehouse Auction Association's Ten Million Club, which was almost the top position among treasure hunters.
Although there were indeed members of the Ten Million Club in California, it depended on years of accumulation. Everyone was over 50 years old, and there was no one as young as Li Du.
He became more and more famous, and even the teachers at Victoria's school knew him.
American primary school students had social practice. In late April, Victoria and Elena ran back after school and gave Li Du a list.
Li Du picked it up and asked, "What is this? Do you have your transcripts? "
Victoria opened the fridge and took a bottle of juice to drink. She said, "No, it's an invitation. Our school wants to invite you to host an event, a warehouse auction."
Li Du laughed. "I'm not suitable, am I? I don't know how to interact with you naughty kids. "
Elena pouted unhappily. "I'm not a naughty kid. I'm the most well-behaved one in school. Dad likes me the most."
Li Du looked at the list. It was indeed an invitation. The Fountain Valley Church School that the two studied at was going to host a student and parent event to increase the students' social skills and parent-child relationship.
He was not interested in this kind of event, mainly because he was not good at it.
Sophie suggested, "You can go and see. I think you should participate. First of all, you are Victoria and Elena's elder. You should go and see their learning environment. Second, it can increase your experience with children."
"There's another benefit," Lu Guan said, rubbing his nose. "Boss, if you host such an event, you can get parents points. It will be convenient for the children to enter school in the future."
Fountain Valley Church School was the top elementary school in the Los Angeles area. The admission requirements were very strict. Victoria and Elena could enter because Li Du had put in a lot of effort.
Li Du rubbed his forehead. Since it had come to this, it would not be good for him to refuse.
So after thinking about it, he nodded and said, "Okay, go back and tell the teacher that I will bring you to this event. But you have to prepare money. This is a business with real money."
"I've prepared a lot of change." Victoria took out a bank card from her small schoolbag to show off.
Li Du agreed and began to look for a suitable warehouse. Bill and Lu Guan were very enthusiastic, which made him very puzzled. Seeing this, Bill told him that there was a saying in warehouse auctions: "Boy scouts have good luck." Bringing children to auctions often had a big harvest.
