I Got Rich in Period Fiction-Chapter 625 - 598: Accident_2

"It’s been over two months, I just found out."

Qiao Qingyu helped Chu Ying sit down on a chair. Although it wasn’t necessary to be so delicate and careful at this time, Chu Ying had just discovered it herself, so perhaps she was a bit overwhelmed.

"Did you go to the hospital for a checkup? How is it..."

"I did, the doctor said everything is normal, but I need to rest." Then, Chu Ying looked at Qiao Qingyu with a face that seemed both troubled and a bit embarrassed. She looked at a vase in the room and lowered her head, "Actually, Xiu Wen and I had already agreed not to have children. Just having Rongrong is enough for us, we’ve always been careful with birth control, really..." She then looked up at Qiao Qingyu, her expression serious and her voice urgent, "Qingyu, you must believe me, I really was... very careful. I didn’t expect to get pregnant, how could this happen?"

Qiao Qingyu also put away her playful demeanor, sat opposite her, and took her hand, comforting her, "Don’t worry for now, don’t get too worked up. Being pregnant is a delicate state, especially during the first three months, which can be quite dangerous."

Chu Ying didn’t speak, but Qiao Qingyu thought for a moment and still asked, "Sister-in-law, from what you’re saying, it sounds like you’re not really looking forward to or happy about the arrival of this child?"

"I can’t really explain it, my feelings are so mixed right now. When I just got married, I promised Rongrong that she would be an only child, I wouldn’t have any more. But now, I’m going back on my word, not keeping my promise. Besides, I’m busy with work, and if I were pregnant, I’d really have to put aside my tasks."

"Sister-in-law, don’t worry about Rongrong, and don’t feel any burden about it. If you and my brother have another little brother or sister for her, Rongrong won’t oppose it. On the contrary, she will definitely be very happy."

Chu Ying nodded slightly, "I know Rongrong is a good child. She mentioned it to me indirectly before, but I didn’t take it to heart. I didn’t intend to get pregnant. Rongrong is my own daughter, and things are good as they are now, and also..." As she spoke, Chu Ying ran her fingers through her hair, "Taking care of children seems so exhausting."

Well, that’s a bit of anxiety right there. frёewebnoѵēl.com

Although Chu Ying, who usually had clear logic, appeared a bit incoherent today, Qiao Qingyu could still understand her.

Rongrong was indeed one concern, even if she sincerely hoped they could have their own child, but Chu Ying still felt like not keeping her promise.

And Chu Ying was very conscientious and responsible at work; perhaps she really felt that pregnancy would hinder her work. But such thoughts were not to be encouraged unless she truly didn’t like children. If that were really the case, no one could force her.

Qiao Qingyu still asked quietly, "Sister-in-law, tell me the truth, do you dislike the idea of having a child with my brother?"

Chu Ying looked up at Qiao Qingyu, thought for a moment, and initially looked pleased but then grimaced, "But I’m worried I won’t take good care of them."

"You shouldn’t worry about that. Our base now has daycare and kindergartens. Besides pregnancy, which no one else can take over, after the birth, you can hire a nanny, I can also lend a hand, and if you don’t oppose our mother-in-law... she would definitely be very happy to help you out, or even your own mother could..."

"Really?"

After hearing the news, Chu Ying didn’t even go home but came directly to Qiao Qingyu. Deep down, she somehow felt that Qiao Qingyu was the closest person to her, she didn’t even understand why she felt this way.

"Of course, if it wasn’t so, then let it be. But now that it’s here, you should joyfully welcome its arrival. Remember, your mood can affect the child," Qiao Qingyu said earnestly.

Upon hearing this, Chu Ying paused for a moment, then placed her hand on her abdomen, "Can it really affect them?"

Qiao Qingyu didn’t feel like answering her, "You’re a scientific researcher, so highly educated, do I even need to say this? But sister-in-law, have you told my brother about this?"

"...Not yet, your brother is still at work, I haven’t told him."

Qiao Qingyu smiled, "Go tell my brother, he will definitely be very happy. Then on Saturday, also call Rongrong."

Although Rongrong wouldn’t oppose them having another little brother or sister, she would absolutely hate He Xiuyu and Chu Ying if they really had a child and kept it secret from her.

"I’ll definitely tell Rongrong," Chu Ying said. At this point, her somewhat muddled mind cleared up a bit, and she spoke somewhat sheepishly, "You see, I was too rash. This matter was so sudden, I had no mental preparation, my mind was a bit fuzzy."
