Chapter 6: The Female Lead is Pregnant
byChapter 6: The Female Lead is Pregnant
Just as she had expected, the female lead was really pregnant.
Fu Yining continued to ask, "How are my daughter-in-law and my grandchild now?" Is the child safe?
"Rest assured, they are both fine. Doctor Li is conducting further examinations on the young mistress."
Doctor Li was the physician assigned to Song Qingyu, highly educated and experienced, a top talent poached by the hospital.
With the young mistress of the Yu family safe, the hospital director breathed a sigh of relief, looking forward to serving these important clients well.
Knowing that the female lead and the child were safe, Fu Yining stood up, "I see, take me to see her."
"Right away, Madam Yu, please follow me!"
The director led the way obsequiously, with Hu Ma, the equally excited nanny, following beside Fu Yining.
In the luxurious VIP ward, Song Qingyu leaned on the pillow, her face showing disbelief as she touched her abdomen.
She was actually pregnant?
"Doctor Li, are you sure the examination is correct? Am I really pregnant?"
Facing the young mistress's repeated question, Doctor Li smiled patiently, "Yes, you are indeed pregnant, and you're about six weeks along."
Song Qingyu smiled as she touched her abdomen.
Her periods were usually irregular, so how could she have thought that she was pregnant? If I remember correctly, it must have been the last time...
With this little one, maybe her mother-in-law will like her more?
That's wonderful!
Recalling her earlier unexplained abdominal pain, Song Qingyu nervously asked Doctor Li, "Doctor Li, is my child okay?"
Doctor Li, having reviewed all of Song Qingyu's reports, answered based on her current condition, "Don't worry, the child is fine."
"Then why was my stomach hurting earlier?" Song Qingyu looked worried.
Doctor Li guessed that it could have been due to recent stress and tension, but based on the examination results, both she and the fetus were very healthy.
"Miss Song, you should try to relax more, it will help the fetus grow."
"Okay, thank you Doctor Li!" Song Qingyu nodded eagerly.
She would definitely protect this baby!
"Madam Yu, this way please."
As Fu Yining entered, Song Qingyu looked at her with starry eyes once more.
Hmm, the female lead seems to misunderstand something? But for now, it doesn't seem to be a bad thing.
Unwilling to reveal herself just yet, Fu Yining deliberately acted surprised about Song Qingyu's pregnancy and advised her to take good care of the baby.
"This is Mingze's first child, my eldest grandson, you must take good care of him, alright?"
"Mother, I understand. I'll take good care of him."
After thinking for a moment, Song Qingyu wondered, "How can she be so sure that I'm carrying a baby boy?"
Fu Yining glanced at her. "Don't worry too much about it. It's definitely a boy in your belly!"
It was true that it was hard to tell whether the child would be a boy or a girl, but according to Fu Yining's impression, such a preference for boys better fit the image of a "tyrannical mother-in-law."
Sure enough, after she said that, Dr. Li, who was standing nearby, frowned.
So this was Madam Yu? She looked incredibly young, making it impossible to guess her real age.
But the fetus was only six weeks old and hadn't even taken shape yet. How could she be so sure it was a boy?
In a wealthy family where the mother-in-law was so biased towards boys, life must be hard for this young mistress of the Yu family. Dr. Li sympathized deeply.
However, the person she pitied, Song Qingyu, happily touched her belly. "Mom, I will give birth to the grandson you desire!" Maybe she should go find Ming Ze again?
Fu Yining nodded. "Yes, yes... Wait, something feels off, doesn't it?"
Seeing the excitement on Song Qingyu's face, Fu Yining opened her mouth to speak but ultimately remained silent.
Dear protagonist, she didn't really want you to get entangled with the male lead anymore!
Having this child was enough. Don’t treat yourself like a pig.
After the check-up, Song Qingyu, who was confirmed to be healthy, went home with Fu Yining.
Butler Wang, having been informed of Song Qingyu's pregnancy, followed Fu Yining's instructions and arranged a series of nutritious meals and caretakers for Song Qingyu.
Song Qingyu was moved to tears, while Fu Yining remained outwardly expressionless but was inwardly eager.
If she tried hard enough, could she make sure that this child of the protagonist stayed?
To hell with plot twists!
The young maids whispered to each other as they worked, "No wonder Madam has suddenly become so kind to the young mistress. It turns out it's because she's pregnant."
They had thought that Madam had changed, but seeing how uninterested Fu Yining was in Song Qingyu, they knew that the lady of the house was still the same!
Fu Yining: Was she really that cold? She just found the protagonist a little clingy.
And terrifyingly clingy at that.
At the dinner table in the evening, Wang Yue informed them that the head of the Yu family, Yu Mingze's father, wouldn't be coming home again tonight. Fu Yining looked disappointed, but secretly, she almost burst into laughter.
She had such a big house, endless money (she had secretly checked the bank balance), and a husband who was never home. Where else could she find such a perfect situation?
On the second floor of the villa, Song Qingyu's room had been thoroughly cleaned at Wang Yue’s orders, removing any potential dangers to better ensure the safety of the pregnant woman.
After dinner, Fu Yining, with great patience, managed to convince Song Qingyu to return to her room. The moment she did, Fu Yining rushed into her own room, closed the door, and leaned against the wall, letting out a deep sigh.
This was exhausting!
Fu Yining kicked off her shoes, collapsed onto the soft bed, and couldn't help but bury her face in the blanket, nestling into it.
The fabric was soft and comfortable, and it smelled nice, giving Fu Yining a sense of warmth.
It had likely just been aired in the sun.
After lying on the bed for a while, Fu Yining remembered something very important and immediately propped herself up to walk to the large mirror in the bedroom’s en suite bathroom, carefully examining her reflection.
With the warm light above her head, Fu Yining could clearly see the face in the mirror: Indeed, she was a very beautiful woman, with fair skin, a pretty face, a slender waist, and long legs.
Considering her age, "Fu Yining" was under twenty when she gave birth to Yu Mingze. Now, on the verge of becoming a grandmother, she was still in her early forties.
The original Fu Yining loved beauty and invested a significant amount annually to maintain her appearance. From her looks, she didn’t look her age at all; people might believe she was in her twenties.
In contrast, Fu Yining herself was just a recent college graduate, a young woman enduring a stingy company.
Now, things were significantly better. She had bypassed the busy work and gained what she had always desired most: wealth and leisure!
Despite her satisfaction, Fu Yining also wondered how her counterpart in that world was faring, still alive or not?
She had no way of knowing.
However, as someone who had lost her parents early and had little connection with relatives, if she were to die, perhaps only a handful of friends would mourn her.
Mystery husband?
