Wealthy Beauty in the 60s-Chapter 539 - 541: Pregnant

Soon, Xia Xiao had contacted Feiteng and Feiling, and the children were also frantic in their search for her.

Upon seeing Xia Xiao, Feiling immediately rushed into her arms. "Mom, you scared me to death."

"It’s okay now, it’s okay." Xia Xiao held Feiling, feeling a deep sense of guilt in her heart.

These past few days had not been kind to Xia Xiao either; she looked utterly haggard.

After picking up Xia Xiao, Feiteng and Feiling called home to reassure their family. Only then did Xia Xiao find out that she had gone to Country J, causing great concern for her family and even Gao Jiaxing was blamed by her in-laws and children.

Outside the airport, Gao Jiaxing hugged Xia Xiao fiercely, gritting his teeth, "I won’t let you go abroad again."

"I won’t go again." Xia Xiao leaned into Gao Jiaxing’s arms, shedding silent tears, thinking of Shitou, not knowing whether he had successfully reincarnated as a human or had failed and disappeared.

Once home, everyone was there—Zheng Xianghong and Gao Guoqiang, as well as the pregnant Weilin and her husband, and their sons and daughters-in-law.

"It’s good to be safe, good to be safe." Zheng Xianghong kept saying as he held a brazier for Xia Xiao to step over.

Tearfully, Xia Xiao said, "Dad, Mom, I’m sorry for making you worry."

"It’s okay, go wash up and rest a bit. You don’t look well," said Zheng Xianghong after checking Xia Xiao’s pulse.

Gao Jiaxing then took Xia Xiao back to their room, while Feiyang, Li Min, Feiyue—who had just returned from the Olympics—and Feiteng and Feiling were all present.

"Oh, I’m going to give birth," Weilin suddenly exclaimed.

At once, the Gao family was thrown into a frenzy, hurriedly sending Weilin to the hospital, with Ge Liang’s legs nearly giving out from stress.

After Xia Xiao took a bath, she heard that Weilin was about to give birth. She couldn’t rest and immediately insisted on going to the hospital, despite Gao Jiaxing’s attempts to dissuade her.

Xia Xiao wondered if Shitou had reincarnated and was possibly being born as Weilin’s child.

Unfortunately, after watching all day, Weilin eventually had a daughter, and Ge Liang felt having a daughter was not bad.

But Xia Xiao felt slightly disappointed upon seeing the child; Shitou should be a boy, sounded like a boy, probably not Weilin’s child.

So was Shitou truly gone, or had he reincarnated somewhere else?

Zheng Xianghong stayed in the hospital to take care of Weilin’s child, while Xia Xiao returned home and collapsed into bed, falling into a deep sleep from exhaustion.

Gao Jiaxing tucked in the blanket for Xia Xiao, watching her sleeping face with joy from having regained what was lost.

During the days Xia Xiao was in Country J, Gao Jiaxing also had not slept well, constantly having nightmares about Xia Xiao perishing in a fire, waking up terrified, unable to sleep again.

In her sleep, Xia Xiao murmured "Shitou," Gao Jiaxing listened closely, but couldn’t make it out as Xia Xiao did not speak again.

Gao Jiaxing felt a pang in his heart, wondering who could make Xia Xiao so concerned. Could it be the energy stone?

Unable to guess, Gao Jiaxing just waited for Xia Xiao to wake up to talk to her.

When Xia Xiao woke up again, it was already afternoon, seeing Gao Jiaxing with dark circles under his eyes, Xia Xiao got a fright, "Brother Gao, haven’t you slept?"

"I can’t sleep, Brother Gao. Whenever I fall asleep, I dream that you are in a sea of fire. Xiaoxiao, can you tell me why?" Gao Jiaxing said.

Xia Xiao thought for a moment and said, "Brother Gao, do you remember the stone I had?"

Gao Jiaxing nodded, and Xia Xiao continued, "It is a strange stone that can talk to me. It needed the energy stone, so these years I’ve been traveling far and wide looking for energy stones. There was one in the active volcano in Country J. It wanted to devour that huge energy stone, so I sent it there."

A stone? "What’s the origin of this stone?" Gao Jiaxing asked.

Xia Xiao shook her head, "I don’t know, but do you remember the incident when I was poisoned by a snake? If it weren’t for it, I would have died."

"What about it then?" Gao Jiaxing asked.

Xia Xiao sadly shook her head, "I don’t know whether it successfully devoured the energy stone or failed. It told me that if it failed, the volcano would erupt, and indeed, the volcano really erupted."

Xia Xiao still chose to conceal some details, after all, these things were too hard to explain. As for the space, Xia Xiao did not allow Gao Jiaxing to enter, not because she didn’t trust him, but because there was too much to explain.

Even Xia Xiao didn’t want Gao Jiaxing to know she had been reborn. She had her own selfish reasons, so she chose to hide it.

Regarding what Xia Xiao said, Gao Jiaxing was unable to comprehend. He even felt it was all like a fantasy. But in this world, there are many unknowns. Gao Jiaxing didn’t care about those; as long as Xia Xiao came back safely, he was content. When the volcano erupted, he felt as if his heart was burning to death.

As Gao Jiaxing and Xia Xiao left the bedroom, Feiyang joyfully said, "Mom, Dad, Li Min is pregnant."

"How long has it been?" Xia Xiao’s face broke into a smile.

Li Min shyly said, "A little over a month now. Grandma just confirmed it at the hospital."

Then Gao Jiaxing also smiled, "Good, good. Li Min, you should rest well at home now. Take some time off from the military for now."

"Yes, the first three months are crucial," Xia Xiao said, holding Li Min’s hand and discussing pregnancy precautions with her.

Weilin had just given birth to a daughter, and now Li Min was pregnant too, bringing joy to the whole Gao family. Gao Jiazhi, upon hearing Gao Jiaxing’s phone call, expressed his intention to come visit Weilin.

The next day, Weilin was discharged from the hospital, as she had had a natural delivery and didn’t need to stay long.

Weilin returned to her home with Ge Liang, and Zheng Xianghong came over to take care of Weilin, along with Li Xiaoting and Gao Jiazhi.

Sun Yuhua, somehow hearing the news that Weilin had given birth to a daughter, also came to visit.

Seeing Gao Jiazhi and Li Xiaoting, Sun Yuhua remained silent, much quieter than before.

Xia Xiao, upon seeing Sun Yuhua, momentarily lost for words, was actually greeted by Sun Yuhua first, though without saying much.

Now, Sun Yuhua had also become more detached; since Weilin was her only child, she valued her greatly.

Weilin was not as resistant to Sun Yuhua anymore and, seeing Sun Yuhua alone and distant from her stepchildren, felt a bit of pity.

Moreover, Sun Yuhua was not as troublesome as before. Once Sun Yuhua arrived, Li Xiaoting and Gao Jiazhi found it difficult to stay, so they left Weilin with her, giving space to Sun Yuhua.

At the house of the Fangs, Tang Jiao also visited but, since her own son also had children, Tang Jiao and Fang Hui came and went back quickly, bringing many gifts for Weilin’s child. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Sun Yuhua took care of Weilin tenderly, preempting Zheng Xianghong and allowing Zheng to rest.
