Binjiang Police Affairs-Chapter 1168 - 39: Someone Could Die Over This! (Part 2)

"What do you mean by 'us Linghai people,' as if you're not from Linghai."

"I am not originally from Linghai."

"I almost forgot, you're from Dongshan, your hometown is Dongshan."

While chatting, the phone rang.

Han Yu took out his phone to check the caller ID, smiled apologetically, and went to the side to answer the call.

"Ningning, what's up?"

"Uncle Ge and Master's wife are back, they're at Bailong Port now. I'm heading over there immediately, you need to hurry over too!"

"Weren't they in the Capital? Why did they suddenly come back?"

"There's an urgent issue, very urgent!"

"What's so urgent? I'm at the People's Hospital, I need to wait for the young recruits to finish their physicals before heading back."

"It's extremely urgent! You're not a doctor, why are you at the hospital anyway? There are others there besides you, quickly get to Bailong Port."

Han Yu asked in shock, "Extremely urgent?"

"It's almost a life and death situation, I can't explain over the phone, you'll find out at Bailong Port."

"Alright, I'll head back right now."

Extremely urgent! Almost a life and death situation!

This isn't a small matter, Han Yu didn't dare delay for a moment, and quickly asked Deputy Minister Li to arrange a car from the Armed Forces Department.

The city is not far from Bailong Port, and it was reached within half an hour, arriving at the Bailong Port Passenger Pier residential area.

Old Ge and Master's wife were indeed back, the senior and Sister Zhang Lan had also just arrived, they were talking with Master's wife in the dormitory, and Old Ge was sitting in Han Yu's former dormitory smoking heavily, looking somewhat embarrassed.

Han Yu dismissed the driver from the Armed Forces Department and entered the dormitory urgently asking, "Uncle Ge, why did you suddenly come back? How did you come back?"

"We came back by plane."

"What's going on exactly?"

"Your... your... Master's wife is not feeling well."

Han Yu was startled and asked intently, "Did you go to the hospital for a check-up?"

Old Ge hesitated for a moment, with a bitter face he said, "We did, we checked at the Capital yesterday morning."

In recent years, many people have been diagnosed with cancer.

The master passed away due to cancer back then.

The more Han Yu thought, the more frightened he became, nervously asking, "What was found, what did the doctor say?"

Old Ge was really embarrassed to say, but he couldn't remain silent, and could only extinguish the cigarette with an awkward expression and said, "It's nothing serious, the doctor... the doctor said Master's wife is pregnant."

Master's wife is pregnant!

Is this a mistake?

Master's wife is already fifty-one years old, wasn't it said that women can't conceive after fifty?

No wonder the senior said it's almost a life and death situation, Master's wife's belly already has a Junior or Junior Sister...

Han Yu was amused, unable to hold back his laughter as he asked, "What do we do now?"

She's going to be sixty soon, yet pregnant before marriage.

Old Ge, embarrassed as hell, wished he could find a crevice to hide in, unsure of how to respond.

Han Yu suddenly realized he was in a difficult situation, given both he and Master's wife's age, it's genuinely rare for Master's wife to conceive at this age, their love is so deep, having an offspring now only to abandon it would be regretful.

If they decide to keep the child, they're not sure how to explain to both families and even grandchildren, let alone societal judgement. Linghai isn't like East Sea, in a small city, a child at almost sixty is definitely a big news!

Han Yu was silently anxious for him when Han Xiangning entered with suppressed laughter, Zhang Lan didn't come in, instead she used Han Xiangning's phone outside to make calls.

"Uncle Ge."

"Uncle Ge!"

"Oh, what's up."

Han Xiangning pulled out a chair and sat down, smiling as she asked him, "What's up, you're asking me what's up?"

Old Ge scratched his neck, embarrassedly saying, "I didn't expect it either, Ningning, my mind is a bit of a mess, don't laugh at me, I didn't sleep well all night."

"What you expected isn't important anymore, what matters is what we'll do next."

"What does Master's wife say?"

"What can she say, she asked me to take her to find Mengmeng."

"What for?"

"What do you think?" Han Xiangning asked in return, holding back laughter yet speaking seriously and sincerely, "Sister Zhang Lan and I feel that since she conceived, she should have the baby. Master's wife is fifty-one now, it's extraordinarily rare to conceive. Plus, that's a life, how can you just say no?"

Han Yu agreed wholeheartedly, he nodded and said, "Exactly, might as well have it, a child makes it lively."

Old Ge couldn't bear for his wife to go to the hospital for an abortion, but reality didn't permit it, he muttered with his head hanging low, "People will laugh."

"Uncle Ge, you're worried people will laugh?" 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"I don't care about myself, I'm worried because of Master's wife."

"It's her flesh, none of us can bear to part with it, she can't either. Do you think she'd fear being laughed at?"

"Why did she want you to take her to find Mengmeng?"

"She's worried people will laugh at you."

"..."

"Uncle Ge, say something!"

"Salted Fish, Ningning, this isn't just about people laughing, it involves two families."

Old Ge had just finished speaking, and Zhang Lan walked in after the call: "Uncle Ge, Haoran and Xiao Qin can't come immediately, they'll be here after work."

Old Ge felt like he'd done something wrong, nervously asking, "Did Haoran say anything?"

"He and Xiao Qin are very happy."

"Happy?"

"Yeah."

"Really?"

"Why would I lie to you?" Zhang Lan handed the phone back to Han Xiangning, sat down with a smile, and said, "Haoran and Xiao Qin said if you want the child, don't worry about age and definitely not about the baby growing up without care. An elder brother is like a father, an elder sister-in-law is like a mother, they'll treat the baby as their own brother, he is indeed their biological brother."

Old Ge was deeply touched, and couldn't help but think about his own son and daughter-in-law, wondering what their attitude would be.
