Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife-Chapter 571 A Twisted Fate (2)
The next day…
It was another weekend and because of that, Su Xiaofei and Lu Qingfeng didn't need to leave home for work. Ever since Yun Qingrong had moved back into her father's residence to take care of the old general, their home felt a little too quiet for Lu Qingfeng's liking.
Yun Qingrong had already transferred this property, along with her other assets under Su Xiaofei's name and there was nothing else Su Haoran could do about it. No matter how much he tried to appeal and claim his non-existent rights on them, they were now legally his wife's.
Lu Qingfeng was reading a document in his hands while his wife remained sleeping on their marital bed. Su Xiaofei hadn't thrown up since last night, but the slight paleness on her complexion was starting to worry him.
His thoughts were pulled back to reality when his phone rang. He raised a brow when he saw Xi Qian's name on the screen and gave his wife a quick glance. Xi Qian rarely called or texted him unless it's something urgent or important.
He silently slipped out of the room and went to the study across their bedroom and answered the phone.
"Ms. Xi? Something I can help you with?" Lu Qingfeng asked.
"I'm not the one who needs help, Lu Qingfeng. It's Feifei." He heard his wife's best friend say from the other end of the line.
It felt like someone punched Lu Qingfeng in the guts as alarm bells rang in his mind.
"What kind of help?" He asked, trying to keep himself calm, but it was hard, especially if the problem involved his wife.
Lu Qingfeng heard Xi Qian mutter a low curse before answering him.
"She hadn't told you anything?"
"Nothing so far. I asked her last night about where you two went, but she said it was for her annual check up. Is that true?"
"Yes. I can vouch for that." Xi Qian said, but it wasn't enough to calm Lu Qingfeng at all. It only meant that Su Xiaofei wasn't lying to him on that part.
"And the result?" He asked. There was no reason for his wife to act weird if the results were nothing to worry about.
"Not good, Lu Qingfeng. Actually, she's…" Xi Qian took a deep breath. "Feifei is pregnant." She added, almost a whisper in Lu Qingfeng's ear.
Lu Qingfeng fell on his seat and froze in disbelief. He couldn't believe what Xi Qian just said.
His wife was pregnant? This was good news! The thought of a little human coming into this world through Su Xiaofei's body, with his blood flowing through its veins made Lu Qingfeng feel beyond happy.
He was about to become a father. To have a child with his wife! Lu Qingfeng thought that he couldn't be any happier after Su Xiaofei accepted him and married him.
But why did Xi Qian say that it wasn't good? Was there something wrong with their child? They should be celebrating right now, but why did Su Xiaofei and Xi Qian act like they were in a bad situation instead?
"You don't seem happy with the news, Miss Xi. Tell me what's happening to my family." Lu Qingfeng pointed out.
Was Su Xiaofei upset with him for knocking her up? After all, she did say that she wasn't ready to start a family with him.
What was Lu Qingfeng supposed to do now?
Xi Qian sighed, and he could hear her prancing around, as if she was trying to find the right words to explain it.
"Feifei called me because she was experiencing heavy and painful bleeding four days ago. It was normal for her to endure some cramps during her period, but she told me this time was different. That's when I picked her up at Bluemedia and brought her to the hospital. Indeed, she was also scheduled for an annual check up, but that was supposed to be next week. 𝘧𝗿𝚎e𝓌𝗲𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵ𝗲𝒍. c𝐨𝗺
"I asked someone at the hospital if we could do it ahead of schedule, and they agreed. That's when we found out she's pregnant and could possibly lose the child. She was given meds to keep the embryo intact in her uterus, and I asked Feifei to discuss this with you, but I suppose she didn't."
"And you didn't bother to call and inform me?" Lu Qingfeng couldn't believe what he was hearing. So he was right all the time, but he was more furious with himself.
He had noticed how Su Xiaofei would curl on their bed in pain, breaking into a cold sweat and was left immobile by it recently. She claimed that it was normal, that she only needed to take some pain relievers. Now that he thought about it, he wondered if those medicines affected their unborn child.
"It's not that simple, Lu Qingfeng! I would have told you right then and there, but Feifei doesn't want to tell you yet. I'm not sure what's wrong with her, too, alright? She stayed at the hospital for the whole day, then asked me to accompany her to see Brother Han. You remember him, right?"
Of course Lu Qingfeng did, but if Su Xiaofei sought to find Han Zijun, it only meant that she had an idea of what was happening to her. Fear gripped Lu Qingfeng's heart when he realized what it could be.
The cold poison.
The very same thing that killed Su Xiaofei in their previous life. How could it possibly still harm her in this lifetime, when she and Ye Mingyu barely crossed each other's paths this time? How did Su Xiaofei still end up poisoned?
"And what did Brother Han say about it?" He asked, hoping for the best.
Xi Qian hesitated, which only put Lu Qingfeng on edge.
"Xi Qian, please tell me… I can't lose Feifei… nor the child." He asked in despair.
"Brother Han said that Feifei should abort this pregnancy, or the cold poison would kill them both."
