Luo Qianxi was terrified. An Xiaxia s.n.a.t.c.hed her phone back, called 120, then dialed He Jiayu’s number.
“Anything happens to her, I’m holding you accountable!” An Xiaxia glared at Luo Qianxi.
Luo Qianxi was going to talk back when her a.s.sistant hurried over and covered her mouth before whispering in her ear, “Gosh, watch it! So many people are watching and you’ve been recorded on camera! And the one who hit you is the daughter of the Song family. She can end your career with one phone call! Don’t be silly!”
The ambulance arrived later and Su Xiaomo was carried into it on a stretcher. An Xiaxia followed her in.

When He Jiayu arrived at the hospital in a hurry, he saw An Xiaxia standing there with her head lowered while the doctor scolded her. However, as soon as the doctor spotted him, she turned her anger toward him right away. Glowering at him, she asked, “When did your wife last have her period?”
Although he was at a loss at that question, he still replied right away, “Her periods usually come around the 5th… but I wasn’t around lately and I a.s.sume that she had it then…”
“You wis.h.!.+ She’s pregnant!” the doctor said indignantly. “Sc.u.mbags like you are the reason we women have to suffer so much…”
“May I have a look at the test results, please?” He Jiayu got right to the point. The doctor was a little bemused and handed him the results without realizing it.
He Jiayu frowned after a brief look through it and An Xiaxia asked nervously, “Is it serious? Are we losing the baby?”
“It’s not that bad. She’s pretty fit physically, but I’m afraid she’ll have to get some good rest in the next few months. She’ll need some tonics and her diet and daily routine will have to be adjusted accordingly…”
The doctor was baffled. “How do you know all this?”
He Jiayu smiled mildly. “I’m a doctor myself.”
So, a fellow doctor.
The doctor cleared her throat and said awkwardly, “I can relate. This job can be so busy that you don’t have any time for your other half. Sigh , it’s the same case with me… It’s such hard work.”
He Jiayu smiled, gave her back the file, and hurried into Su Xiaomo’s ward.
Su Xiaomo was no longer her usual vivacious self. Lying there weakly, she looked a few shades paler. She even burst into tears when she saw He Jiayu come in. “He Jiayu… I – I don’t know what to do. How can I be pregnant… Am I really having a baby? Could there be a mistake…”
He Jiayu understood why she was panicking. Deep down, she was still a kid herself. The idea of having a baby would no doubt freak her out.
“Don’t worry. The baby is healthy and so are you. Rest well. I’ve got this.” He Jiayu comforted her. Su Xiaomo huddled in his arms and cried.
“I… I’m so afraid that I’m going to be a bad mother.”
The idea of having a child was the reason for her fear of getting married.
She was afraid that her child would be as unhappy as she had been.
“There’s a first time for everything. Let’s learn to be parents together, shall we?” He Jiayu said gently and kissed her on the forehead. “Everything happened so suddenly… I didn’t have time to get a ring…”
He smiled in resignation, but Su Xiaomo pouted. “I’m not getting married! I told you, I have marriage phobia!”
“If we don’t get married, the baby won’t be able to get a birth certificate, permanent residency, or go to school…” He Jiayu casually listed a few things, which made Su Xiaomo’s pupils contract. After some thought, she finally said reluctantly, “In that case… Cutie He, would you take my surname?”
He Jiayu was speechless. “… Can I say no to that?”
