Chapter 174: A Child?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Gu Juexi had never felt as nervous as this before. In his mind, regardless of whether it is the mother or the grandmother, the duty of a wife was just to take care of the husband and educate the child. No, the duty was just to educate the child.

He did not want to have a child so early, that was why he had given Ye Yuwei the pills every time they had intercourse.

However, he had never betrayed Ye Yuwei before. If he decided it was time to have a child one day, he had decided that the mother of the child could only be Ye Yuwei. This was a fact that could not be changed by anyone.

This accident had caught him off guard.

What if anything happened to Ye Yuwei? What if Ye Yuwei never woke up? Then he—

As Gu Juexi thought about it, he could feel a sharp pain in his chest. It felt as though someone was ripping his chest apart. It was so painful that it felt like he was suffocating.

Every second that passed was like a minute of torment for Gu Juexi.

PA Wen stood silently by Gu Juexi’s side.

PA Wen’s phone suddenly rang and he hurriedly rushed to the corner to answer the call. He could hear an enraged Xiao Yaojing’s screaming on the other side of the line.

“Hey you with the last name, Wen. Did that scumbag Gu Juexi do something again? Why is Ye Yuwei still not home? Why isn’t she answering my calls?”

PA Wen listened and quietly replied, “Young Mistress is still at the hospital. She will not be going home tonight. Auntie Mao got into an accident and is being resuscitated now. Young Mistress will stay at the hospital to wait for her.”

PA Wen chose to lie. After all, it was still raining heavily right now. If Xiao Yaojing knew what had happened, she would definitely rush over to the hospital immediately. That would not necessarily be safe for her.

Xiao Yaojing listened to the soft voice of PA Wen and thought about how important Auntie Mao was to Ye Yuwei. Therefore, she chose to believe him. “Please ask Yuwei to call me when she is not so busy. I have tried calling her many times but she has not answered any of my calls. I am very worried about her.”

“Alright, I will.” PA Wen hung up the phone. The expression on his face did not change but he let out a huge sigh. He prayed that he would be able to keep his life tomorrow.

It was really risky being Gu Juexi’s assistant. PA Wen was thankful that he pays for a yearly medical insurance. He was thinking if he should purchase a personal accident insurance for himself now.

The first person to be pushed out of the emergency room was Ye Yuwei. The doctors have managed to save the life of her child. However, as she was at a high risk of having a miscarriage, she would have to stay in bed for a month.

Gu Juexi did not care about what was going to happen in the following month. He was fine as long as Ye Yuwei was alive.

Auntie Mao came out a little later but was not out of danger. For the next forty-eight hours, she would be placed in the intensive care unit. This meant that anything could happen during the next forty-eight hours.

Ye Yuwei was pushed to her private ward. Her face was as pale as a sheet and her brows were knitted together. He could not tell if it was because she was in pain or whether it was due to some other reasons.

Gu Juexi stood by her bedside and stared at her face. He could hear her heavy breathing by his side.

He was holding on to the sound of her breathing, as this was the proof that she was alive.

As long as she was alive, he did not need anything else.

Gu Juexi did not know where this horrible thought came from but it was all he could think about at the moment.

He moved his gaze away from Ye Yuwei’s face and stared at her lower abdomen.

A child?

At that moment, he suddenly gave more thought to the sudden occurrence of this child.

They had only had intercourse once recently, and he had given her the pills after that.

How could there be a child?
