Mother looked at the doctor and said, "Doctor, she fell down the stairs. Is she alright? Did she hurt the baby in her belly?"
The doctor said, "I just gave Miss Leng a thorough examination. Aside from some superficial injuries, everything else is normal. The baby in her belly is also very healthy. If Mr. Leng and Mrs. Leng don't think it's safe, I'll arrange for the nurse to prescribe you some nutrition medicine to protect the baby."
"Thank you." Mother's excited face became a bit red. The doctor nodded and left the room.
Mother took my hand and said, "Xiao Li, that's great. You have a baby!"
I smiled and looked at mother. "Yes, yes, that's great. I'll be careful in the future." I gently touched my belly. It was incredible. There was a baby here that would be born in a few months.
"This is also very good. If the Duanmu family knows, the Duanmu Que won't divorce you so easily." Mother was very excited.
My face gradually became serious. I looked at mother and said, "Mom, I don't want to tell the Duanmu Que and the Duanmu family about this yet."
"Why? Isn't this a good thing? If the Duanmu Que knows you're pregnant, he'll also love you. Don't tell me he won't take responsibility? "Mother said somewhat angrily.
Father walked in front of me. He looked at me and said, "Xiao Li is right. It's best if we don't let them know about this. Perhaps it'll be more troublesome if they know."
"Then are we going to hide this until the end? But after a long time, the belly will show. Won't we be unable to hide it anymore? "
I took mother's hand and said, "Mom, I want to give birth to this child. Since the Duanmu Que wants to divorce me, he probably won't try to keep me. I want to spend these ten days in peace. After the divorce procedures are completed, I'll go home and give birth to the child."
"That's good, but I'm still worried. I'm afraid that Duanmu Que will do something to hurt you again," his mother said worriedly.
The father held the mother's shoulder and said, "Don't worry. When Duanmu Tachio is discharged from the hospital, I'll call him and tell him to take good care of my daughter. If anything happens to my daughter, I'll immediately terminate the agreement."
"Dad, if I divorce Duanmu Que, does that mean the agreement is invalid?" She suddenly felt that she had let down the Red Minghui and the development of the family.
My father looked at me and said, "As long as he can guarantee your safety until the divorce, I will draft another agreement to continue your marriage contract. In the past, I was too selfish, too stubborn, and used you as a bargaining chip in my career. But now that I know how much you've been hurt, I suddenly feel like a selfish father. I didn't take good care of you at all. I feel like I've failed in my duty."
I had never heard my father say such heartwarming words to me before. I smiled at him and said, "Dad, I'm not good enough. I didn't do what I should have done. Thank you for being so understanding. Thank you for agreeing to take care of me and my future baby."
My mother patted my head and said, "Silly child, why are you being so polite to your own parents? As long as you're well, we're happy. "
At that moment, Xiao Fengya pushed open the door to the room. She walked in and smiled at us. "What are you talking about? You look so happy. "
"Nothing much. You're back." My mother stood up and walked over to greet her.
Xiao Fengya nodded and looked at my mother. "Yes, I just went to see Lixiong. The doctor said that he'll be discharged tomorrow."
My mother and father looked at each other. My mother looked at Xiao Fengya and said, "Xiao Fengya, I have something to trouble you with."
Xiao Fengya took my mother's hand and said, "Sis, we're so close. If there's anything you need, you can just tell me directly."
"It's like this. Xiao Li's father and I are very worried about her. We know the details of the situation. Since Xiao Que wants a divorce, Xiao Li isn't bad either. Our family has acquiesced. We just hope that in the next ten days, you and Lixiong can protect our child. Don't let her get hurt or wronged again. Our heart aches for our child."
Xiao Fengya thought for a moment. She looked at my mother and said, "Sis, don't worry. When Xiao Li is discharged, I'll let her rest in the guest room. That way, she won't have any conflicts with Que 'er. As for Que' er, we'll let his father teach him a lesson. What do you think?"
"Then I'll leave it to you. Thank you, Xiao Ya." My mother held Xiao Fengya's hand tightly and nodded.
The parents chatted in the room for a while, then left. I was the only one left in the room. It was past visiting hours, so no one would come to disturb me. Recently, I felt very tired. Not only was my body tired, but my heart was even more tired. My parents kept their promise and didn't tell Xiao Fengya that I was pregnant. I gently touched my belly. I still couldn't believe that there was a baby inside. However, I was still very happy. At least it gave my scarred heart some comfort.
I gradually felt sleepy. I closed my eyes and prepared to have a good sleep. Just then, the door of the ward seemed to be pushed open. I instantly opened my eyes and saw a figure standing motionlessly at the door. I forced myself to stand up. Looking at the door, I shouted, "Who is it?"
The figure suddenly moved and walked towards me. I switched on the bedside lamp. When he walked closer, I saw that it was Duanmu Que. I saw that he was hugging his blanket tightly and staring at him without moving. Duanmu Que was holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand. He put the flowers on the bedside table and pulled out a chair to sit down on the bedside chair.
He sat there motionlessly and looked at me. I glanced at him and didn't dare to look at him. I lay down with my back facing Duanmu Que. I clutched my belly, but I didn't dare to close my eyes. I was afraid that he would do something to me.
"I'm sorry." After a long time, Duanmu Que said those three words.
It seemed that he was talking about the argument he had with me and caused me to fall down the stairs. I didn't look at him and said softly, "It's okay."
The atmosphere became tense again. After a while, I suddenly felt something touch my body. I turned around and saw Duanmu Que lying on the edge of the bed, holding his head. He looked like he was in pain. I was about to reach out to touch him, but I stopped. After struggling for a long time, I put my hand on his head and said softly, "Are you okay?"
Duanmu Que shook his head. "I'm fine. It's just that every time I feel like I don't hate you that much, my head hurts really bad. I just need to rest for a while."
I sighed. "Why don't you go home and rest? It's getting late."
