Back Then, I Adored You

Chapter 840: Back Then, I Adored You (20)

Qin Zhi’ai, who had just been faulted by Gu Yusheng, glared at him harshly while saying to their daughter, “Don’t cry, don’t cry, little peanut. Be a good baby. Daddy will let you bite him…”

Gu Yusheng could not help but feel like a popular man when he had to coax both mother and daughter. “Xiao’ai, I really enjoy getting bitten by you. Really, why not take another bite…”

As he said that, Gu Yusheng offered one elbow to Qin Zhi’ai and the other to their daughter, who was finally getting what she wanted, so she stopped crying, and started laughing again. Qin Zhi’ai turned her head in defiance, to show that she refused to bite him again. Gu Yusheng smiled at her, his eyes sparkling with feelings he could not quite comprehend. “Xiao’ai, why not consider this: Come and work at the Gu Company, starting tomorrow, so we can keep all the talent within the family…”

When Qin Zhi’ai heard Gu Yusheng’s compromise in allowing her to work at the Gu Company, she gave him a look expressing her satisfaction. She then lowered her head again and bit his elbow forcefully.

……

The next morning, before Lu Bancheng had even gotten out of bed, Xu Wennuan had already washed up, changed, and left the house. She took the subway to the hospital, arriving at 8:00 a.m., and waited for 10 minutes before her name was called.

Under the doctor’s orders, Xu Wennuan did a urine test and then another one. Thirty minutes later, she retrieved the test results and headed back to the gynecologist office again to give them to the doctor.

The doctor skimmed through her results. She then lifted her head, swept her gaze over Xu Wennuan, and said with a smile, “From the HCG blood analysis test, you’re six weeks pregnant. Currently, there doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with your body. In two to four weeks, we’ll do some more detailed examinations, such as…”

Before the doctor could finish her sentence, Xu Wennuan bit down on her lip and interrupted her calmly. “Doctor, which method would be the most suitable if I want to abort this baby?”

The doctor had not asked Xu Wennuan whether or not she wanted to keep this baby, as she had noted that Xu Wennuan had checked “married” as her relationship status, so the doctor proceeded with information about the additional tests she could undergo. Xu Wennuan’s unexpected question was shocking to the doctor, who only responded after a moment. “Miss, what you mean to say is that you do not wish to keep this child?”

“Yes.” Xu Wennuan seemed afraid of the baby remaining in her belly for another second. She nodded resolutely at the doctor and continued. “I don’t want this baby. The sooner I get an abortion, the better.”

“I saw on your form that you’re married. Have you discussed with your husband about your desire to abort the child?”

The corner of Xu Wennuan’s lips twitched. She did not speak and merely nodded.

“Are you sure you don’t want to consider this a little more?”

Xu Wennuan shook her head.

“If you’re absolutely sure that you want to abort this child, I can arrange the preoperative examination for you right away. If there’s nothing wrong with your body…” The doctor clicked her mouse and looked at her surgery schedule before she continued. “I can arrange for the surgery to be conducted this afternoon.”
