Chapter 455: Why Not Pregnant?

“Please don’t overburden yourself, okay?” Lu Lifen reiterated.

“Okay,” Shu Pan replied, feeling deeply touched.

Shu Pan and Joy stayed overnight, only leaving Bin City the next day.

As soon as they arrived back at the Shuimu Qinghua residence, Gu Shaoting called. “Just arrived?”

“Yes, we’re here and settled in. Finally got a moment to call you,” Shu Pan said, feeling sorry for him after such a long flight.

“Take good rest. Call me whenever you’re free,” Gu Shaoting redirected the conversation.

“What are you up to?” Shu Pan asked.

“Just went back to see Dad and Aunt Lu,” Shu Pan replied truthfully.

“Okay. If you need anything, ask He Ming. I’ll be quite busy for the next few days,” Gu Shaoting said.

“Focus on your work. We’ll take care of ourselves, ” Shu Pan felt he became more caring than before, warming her heart.

After hanging up, Shu Pan felt a pang of longing. She was starting to miss him. His usual presence and care made his sudden absence hard to get used to.

Ever since her last meeting with Shu Pan, Ye Xiaomeng had been feeling anxious about why she hadn’t gotten pregnant yet.

Despite not taking any precautions for the past few months and engaging in frequent intercourse, she couldn’t understand why she wasn’t pregnant.

Thinking about her recent menstrual cycle only made her feel a cold dread.

During her periods, she experienced intense abdominal pain, so severe that she had to resort to drinking ginger water with brown sugar.

Was it the aftermath of her previous miscarriage? Was there something wrong with her body? Was she unable to conceive?

The more Ye Xiaomeng thought about it, the more confused she became. If she truly couldn’t have children, she knew she and He Ming would inevitably part

ways.

She couldn’t bear to burden He Ming, knowing he was an only child and didn’t want him to carry the burden of being childless.

Ye Xiaomeng felt hopeless.

She couldn’t bring herself to tell He Ming about her worries, afraid he would worry about her. He would surely comfort her and tell her not to worry.

She Imew how much He Ming loved children. Every time he saw Joy, his eyes lit up, and he would often joke about having their own child who would be just as adorable.

The thought of seeing disappointment in his eyes terrified her.

After careful consideration, Ye Xiaomeng decided to secretly visit the hospital to find out what was wrong.

The next day, while He Ming was at work, Ye Xiaomeng took the day off and went to the hospital to see a reputable gynecologist.

“Doctor, I haven’t been using contraception, so why haven’t I gotten pregnant?” Ye Xiaomeng asked nervously.

The doctor was a middle-aged woman in her late forties, who had seen too many young people fretting over not getting pregnant immediately, so she understood their anxiety very well.

“Don’t worry, getting pregnant also depends on fate. Let me first prescribe some tests for you to check the results, and then we can tailor the treatment accordingly,” the doctor’s words comforted Ye Xiaomeng’s anxious heart.

She obediently followed the doctor’s instructions, undergoing blood tests, ultrasounds, and other examinations. She couldn’t help but feel envious as she watched many pregnant women with their husbands by their sides, proudly walking around with their baby bumps.

The wait for the results was agonizing. During this time, He Ming called her to ask what she was doing, but she hastily made up an excuse and hung up.

Sitting on the hospital bench, the strong scent of disinfectant stung her nose, making her feel nauseous. But what worried her more was the outcome of her tests.

Finally, she received the results. She didn’t have the courage to open them herself, so she held onto them tightly and went to find the doctor..
