Chapter 65 - 65 64 Pregnancy
?65: Chapter 64: Pregnancy 65: Chapter 64: Pregnancy Tang Xi finished her rounds, feeling a wave of nausea rush up her throat.
She furrowed her brows, trying to suppress it.
But the feeling became increasingly strong.
Unable to resist, Tang Xi rushed to the restroom to throw up.
She washed her face, trying to make herself feel better.
A colleague glanced at her, “Doctor Tang, you don’t seem to be in good shape recently.”
Tang Xi smiled, “It’s probably because I didn’t rest well last night.
I’m just tired.”
The colleague was a woman doctor in her 30s with a family.
She looked at Tang Xi, “Doctor Tang, I saw your boyfriend a few days ago…” She hesitated, “I didn’t want to bring it up and affect your relationship, but you should know that we women can’t stand such things.
Your boyfriend is still dating you, but he’s getting intimate with other girls.
I saw that woman almost plastering herself on his arm during lunch…”
Tang Xi was momentarily stunned.
Then she realized the colleague must be talking about Xiao Chi.
Ever since Xiao Chi extravagantly sent flowers every day, the entire department thought they were dating…
The young master was never short of admirers; he must have just been seen by the colleague.
“I…
Sister Li, I’m not with him.” She really didn’t know how to explain this misunderstanding.
“Not together, huh?
That’s good then.
I was just thinking, such wealthy young masters often treat relationships as a game; I was worried you’d be mistreated.”
“Thank you, Sister Li.”
“No need to thank me, I actually wanted to ask you for a favor.”
“What is it?”
“My period has started a few days ago, and my back and legs hurt so much I can barely stand.
Can you swap shifts with me tomorrow, and cover for a day?
I’ll cover for you next time.”
“No problem.” Tang Xi smiled; it wasn’t a big deal.
After Sister Li left, she slowly realized something…
Her period hadn’t come at all.
A wave of nausea surged up from the depths of her throat again.
Tang Xi’s face gradually turned pale.
Not daring to think further, she took leave and exited the hospital.
She didn’t dare to get checked at her own hospital, so she quickly took a taxi to the second hospital.
“Miss, congratulations, you are pregnant, about five weeks now.”
Tang Xi trembled all over.
She touched her flat belly unbelievingly.
She was actually pregnant?
Five weeks, that would have been last month…
Last month, during Su Mengshu’s birthday party, in that break room.
The woman pursed her lips, her expression somewhat dazed.
The female doctor observing her emotional changes said, “You should discuss with your husband.
If you don’t want it, it’s best to terminate early.
It’s not good for your health to wait too long.”
Tang Xi walked out of the hospital.
Her mind was in turmoil, her hand resting on her belly.
She had never thought that she would be pregnant with this man’s child?
Should she tell him?
Almost the next second, she dismissed the thought.
Her phone buzzed with vibration.
She answered it immediately.
“Doctor Tang, are you free now?
Please come back quickly, we have a patient with pneumothorax who urgently needs surgery.
Doctor Cheng is leading the operation, and we need an assistant.
We can’t get through to Doctor Xu and Sister Qiu…”
She immediately replied, “I’m on my way back.”
In the operating room.
Tang Xi changed into her scrubs and walked in, cooperating with Cheng Yunlang throughout the surgery.
About an hour and a half later, the surgery was successfully completed.
Tang Xi touched her neck and stepped out.
Cheng Yunlang called out to her.
“Tang Xi, I’ve applied to study abroad, and I heard you applied too…
If everything goes as expected, the list will come out next month, and then we can go together.”
“Senior Cheng, I think I’ve made myself very clear.”
Tang Xi knew that Cheng Yunlang was a very gentle and refined person.
He was a good man, but she only saw him as a senior and, at the same time, perhaps a friend.
A hurt look flickered in Cheng Yunlang’s eyes, “Is there really no chance at all?”
Tang Xi said earnestly, “Senior Cheng, you are an outstanding person, and there will certainly be more outstanding women beside you, worthy to stand with you.
I’ve heard you’re going to be engaged to Miss Qiao.”
“I won’t be getting engaged to her.
Tang Xi, come with me.” He said, somewhat agitatedly grasping Tang Xi’s arm, “We’ll go to England together, I will find someone to arrange our slots.”
This might be the first time the gentle and refined Cheng Yunlang pursued someone so actively, so directly, so desperately wanting to win her over.
Tang Xi took a step back but couldn’t break free from his grip.
He held on tightly.
As if he wouldn’t allow her any chances to step back.
Doctors and nurses coming out of the operating room from time to time glanced over.
Someone whispered, “Looks like it’s Doctor Cheng and Doctor Tang…”
“Didn’t see it coming, these two having an affair.”
“Wasn’t Doctor Tang with that rich young master just a few days ago…”
Tang Xi, looking into the fervency in his eyes and failing to break free, said helplessly, “Senior Cheng, what if I say…
I’m already married?”
She knew Cheng Yunlang was a good person who had helped her many times.
She didn’t want to lead him on.
Besides, she was still Fu Tingzhou’s wife, and Cheng Yunlang should be calling her ‘Sister-in-law’.
Even in the future, there could be no outcome between her and Cheng Yunlang.
She had never thought of him that way.
Right now, it was better to let him give up on her completely.
“What did you say?” Cheng Yunlang was taken aback, “Are you joking?”
“I’m married, my husband is Fu Tingzhou.”
Cheng Yunlang’s eyes widened, his pupils contracted, and his whole body shuddered.
Tang Xi took a deep breath, “Let go, and I’ll prove it to you.”
He slowly loosened his grip, as if weakened, staring intently at her face, carefully digesting every word she said.
Tang Xi took out her phone and dialed Fu Tingzhou’s number, “Husband, I might come out late tonight, it’s fine if you come to pick me up ten minutes later.”
On the other end, Fu Tingzhou thought she was in Qin Jianlan’s hospital room; after all, normally she wouldn’t call him, let alone address him as ‘husband’ with such a gentle tone, “Hmm, did you have lunch?”
“I did, won’t disturb you further.” After speaking, Tang Xi immediately hung up.
She looked up at the man in front of her, “You should recognize your third brother’s voice, right?
You should call me ‘Sister-in-law’.”
His voice hoarse, almost trembling, filled with disbelief and shock, “Sis…ter-in-law…”
“I married him three years ago, but it has always been kept a secret publicly.
So, Senior Cheng, thanks a lot for your help and care for such a long time.
I too hope that you can find happiness and joy in the future.”
After finishing, Tang Xi turned around to leave.
A profound bitterness flashed in Cheng Yunlang’s eyes, “Tang Xi, I don’t believe it.
My third brother is Su Mengshu’s boyfriend; you can’t be unaware!”
He could even see that his third brother had animosity towards Tang Xi.
How could it be…
How could they already be married?
This was simply unbearable for him to accept.
“That’s between him and me, our private affairs, Senior Cheng, and I hope you won’t interfere with our business.”
After speaking, Tang Xi walked away quickly.
Cheng Yunlang stared at her retreating figure, silently devastated.
He clenched his fists tightly and slowly closed his eyes.
