The Rough Hunter’s Little Lucky Wife

341 Venting

Doctor Sun uncomfortably cleared his throat, placed his hands behind his back, and strolled out of the room without saying a word.

Yue Jiaojiao withdrew her hand. “Zhao Zhan, it hurts.”

Zhao Zhan hurriedly let go.

“Jiaojiao, I…”

He stared into Yue Jiaojiao’s eyes, his face filled with disbelief. Under his stare, Yue Jiaojiao was inexplicably unable to speak.

She simply grabbed Zhao Zhan’s hand and placed it on her stomach. Her voice was as soft as the spring breeze at night. “Did you feel it? It’s been almost four months.”

His lover’s stomach was bulging a little.

Zhao Zhan’s hands were so nervous that they were about to convulse. He was afraid that if he used a little more strength, he would hurt the baby in her stomach.

Zhao Zhan’s eyes were extraordinarily bright.

“It’s my fault.”

He admitted his mistake out of the blue instead of being overjoyed. Yue Jiaojiao’s brows furrowed slightly as she raised her voice. “Huh?”

“I’ve been neglecting you.”

Zhao Zhan looked at her with a serious expression, as if he was offering her his true heart. “Today is the third day since I returned from North City, yet I still didn’t realize it. I’m not doing well enough.”

The angle at which he cut in was clear.

Yue Jiaojiao had thought of many possibilities of Zhao Zhan’s reaction to her pregnancy.

Him crying tears of joy, or him being upset that he had been staying away from her and not by her side all this time.

However, she had not thought of this possibility. After all, he had gone to Huai County after he woke up, and only returned today.

“Jiaojiao…”

Zhao Zhan reached out to pull Yue Jiaojiao into his arms, but his arm froze in mid-air as he looked at her stomach.

“Will I hurt you if I hug you? Speaking of which,” Zhao Zhan’s face suddenly turned serious, “Didn’t I take the pill? Will the fetus in your womb be safe from it?”

This fellow had always put his full trust in her.

Yue Jiaojiao gently shook her head. “Why are you worrying with Doctor Sun around? His medical skills are very good. If there’s any problem with the fetus, he will tell me.”

“I’m not concerned about the child. I’m concerned about you.”

Zhao Zhan was both afraid and regretful.

Until now, the only thing he had kept from his lover without discussing with her in advance was that he had taken contraceptive pills.

Now, he had made his lover pregnant.

Zhao Zhan was filled with regret.

If something really happened to her… Zhao Zhan hurriedly shook his head. He didn’t even dare to think about it.

“Alright, alright.” Yue Jiaojiao saw that his face was pale and his lips were bloodless. She patted his chest and said, “Giving birth is a living Hell, but don’t worry, I’ll be safe. This child has always been very well-behaved and has never tormented me once. When I first found out, I was so worried, but Doctor Sun said that there was no problem. He also specially prescribed medicine for me.”

Zhao Zhan glanced at her stomach.

“Zhao Zhan?” Seeing that he still didn’t say anything, Yue Jiaojiao turned around and left in a fit of pique.

Her footsteps were faster than usual. Zhao Zhan hurriedly caught up to her and carefully stayed by her side.

“Jiaojiao, don’t walk, you’ll hurt your stomach. I’ll carry you. I’ll carry you wherever you want to go. Be careful of your body,” he said in a panic.

In the three months since Zhao Zhan left Willow Village and returned, Jiaojiao had not thrown any tantrums.

She had been emotionally unstable since she was pregnant, and now she was even more delicate.

“Jiaojiao.”

Zhao Zhan followed her step by step and walked to her side. He placed his hands in front and behind her to protect her. “Don’t be angry with me. I know I did something wrong.”

Yue Jiaojiao stopped in her tracks.

“Zhao Zhan, you don’t sound happy about this at all.”

His lover’s eyes reddened. The more she spoke, the more aggrieved she felt. “Do you think that just because I said I’m pregnant, it means that I’m not tired? Being pregnant is not comfortable at all, but I’ve been holding it in all this time. Isn’t it all because of you?”

Zhao Zhan’s heart ached and softened. ”

“It’s not that I’m unhappy. It’s just that I’m more worried about you than this child.”

“You’re still speaking nonsense.”

Yue Jiaojiao’s back was sore from standing, so she reached out and pressed on her waist.

Zhao Zhan hurriedly knelt on one knee and squatted down with his other leg flat. He held her hand gently and said, “Sit on my lap if you’re tired.”

The grievances in Yue Jiaojiao’s heart were overwhelming, and all the emotions that had accumulated over the past few months were released at this moment. “I’ve been working so hard to take care of myself, and all you do is talk nonsense.”

His lover’s thoughts all came pouring out.

She could have chosen not to have this child. Regardless of whether it was Madam Qin or Doctor Sun, they would have kept this matter a secret from Zhao Zhan.

However, she did not want this to happen.

She kept this child because she loved Zhao Zhan deeply. A small part of the reason was that she wanted to see Zhao Zhan’s happy face after he found out about this.

However, Zhao Zhan only felt his heart being tossed and turned in pain when he found out about this.

“Jiaojiao, I’m very happy.”

The affection in Zhao Zhan’s eyes was almost tangible.

“I never dared to think about having a child with you. Now that it’s come true, I’m over the moon about it… But my happiness can never overcome my worry for you.

“I’m afraid that you’ll feel uncomfortable, afraid that you’ll be tormented by the baby, afraid that you won’t be able to sleep after the baby gets bigger, and even more afraid that you’ll be in so much pain that you’ll wish you were dead after giving birth.

“What I’m most afraid of is that you’ll be forced to leave me.”

Zhao Zhan’s eyes glimmered.

As long as he thought of that possibility, he felt that he would rather die than live without her. His voice sounded like he was about to cry. He pinched Yue Jiaojiao’s fingers and kissed her fingertips with utmost sincerity.

“You are my only treasure.”

“I’m not trying to lie to you. I just want you to be happy and let me stay by your side forever.”

Yue Jiaojiao lowered her head to look at him.

Her gaze softened, and most of the twisted emotions she had earlier dissipated.

His lover’s voice was soft and pitiful. “I think my legs are numb.” Zhao Zhan put his hands on her waist and looked nervous. “Slowly get up.”

Yue Jiaojiao was so numb that she didn’t dare to move.

Zhao Zhan steadied her on him, then retracted his right leg and stood up. He pulled her into his arms. “Let’s go back to the room. I’ll give you a massage.”

Yue Jiaojiao laid on his chest and whined, “My legs are so numb. I can’t rub them. Even walking around hurts.”

Zhao Zhan was extremely patient. “Then you can just lie down and wait for it to recover. If you’re really not feeling well, I can read you a story, okay?”
