Chapter 1112 - Shen Liangchuan, I’m Pregnant (8)
Qiao Lian nodded.
Shen Liangchuan continued with the second point, “Secondly, we have to think about how to get you access to Lu Nanze’s office without arousing his suspicion. This is actually quite simple, because you are in fact their employee.”
Qiao Lian was taken aback by his remark. She looked up at once and asked, “Why did you say that?”
Shen Liangchuan replied, “The ESports app belongs to their company.”
Qiao Lian widened her eyes.
“And thirdly…”
–
Early next morning, the family physician arrived at the Qiao family villa.
After performing a complete check-up, the doctor suggested, “Because Ms. Qiao injured her head, there has been some bleeding. Now she needs to rest more as she lost a lot of blood. Still, the child is very healthy, the heart and organs are functioning normally.”
Shen Liangchuan nodded and followed with a question, “The heart?”
The doctor nodded and replied, “You can hear the baby’s heart now.”
Shen Liangchuan looked delighted at once and asked, “May I have a listen?”
The doctor laughed and said, “Of course you may.”
Then, he placed the ultrasound scanner on Qiao Lian’s abdomen and located the baby’s heart.
Immediately, the rapid and rather weak heartbeat could be heard.
The heart rate was very fast, to the extent that Shen Liangchuan’s looked alarmed as he said, “I counted and it seems like it’s beating over 150 beats per minute. Isn’t this a problem?”
The doctor shook his head and said, “The child is still small, this is normal.”
At this explanation, he was relieved.
Qiao Lian lay on the bed and listened to the conversation between the two men, as her gaze fell on her stomach.
As she listened to the heartbeat amplified by the equipment, she was amazed. And it was in this moment that she finally felt that there was a life growing inside of her.
A sense of higher purpose took root deep within her, making her determined to protect this child no matter what.
She took in a deep breath and saw that Shen Liangchuan’s expression had become serious as well.
They were new parents and right now, they felt a sort of excitement that they had never felt before.
They didn’t even dare to breathe loudly, for fear that they would alarm this tiny, fragile life.
After the doctor had removed the equipment from the room and it was quiet again, the couple sighed in obvious relief.
When the doctor noticed this, he laughed.
Then he packed up and left the room.
Qiao Lian and Shen Liangchuan exchanged a look and both their gazes fell on her stomach.
It was still very flat. Her pale skin was smooth and fine in texture, full of elasticity.
He placed his large hand over it and asked, “Does he feel squished in there?”
Qiao Lian suddenly burst out laughing at the ignorant question.
She shook her head and said, “Shen Liangchuan, did you switch identities with someone else? Please return my husband to me.”
Shen Liangchuan was stumped.
He cleared his throat and got to his feet.
At the same time, Qiao Lian pulled her shirt back down.
Shen Liangchuan remarked, “The doctor just said that for now you’re physically fine. Besides…”
At this point, he lowered his head and continued, “I don’t think he’ll try to harm this child anymore.”
Initially, Qiao Lian had injured her head and been operated.
If Lu Nanze had wanted to destroy the child, it would have been very easy after she lost consciousness.
But in the last minute, he had given up the idea.
Shen Liangchuan believed that it was because Lu Nanze eventually hadn’t dared to. He couldn’t bear it and wasn’t willing.
