Gu Baisheng was unsure about it.
She touched her belly gently with mixed feelings.
And she couldn't tell whether she was happy or sad.
Because of the grief of losing her first child, she couldn't help thinking about his death when she was pregnant with her second child.
But at the same time, she felt excited about their new baby.
Song Shuang looked at her when she was touching her belly.
Then he reached out his hand to hold hers.
She looked up into Song Shuang's eyes.
Song Shuang looked at her gently with his deep eyes, "If you're pregnant, we should take good care of it, OK?"
Gu Baisheng pressed her lips and nodded seriously, "OK."
She would try her best to protect this baby from getting hurt.
...
After arriving at the Beicheng Second Hospital, Song Shuang accompanied Gu Baisheng to do a check-up at the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics.
The doctor was a bit surprised when she saw Song Shuang was following Gu Baisheng.
She seemed to understand it and smiled, "Do you want to get a B-type ultrasound diagnosis?"
Gu Baisheng looked at Song Shuang.
Song Shuang nodded, "Yes."
The doctor laughed immediately, "You're so efficient, Dr. Song."
Song Shuang didn't think this banter was a big deal. He smiled at Gu Baisheng.
Gu Baisheng flushed and touched her ears with her hands shyly.
The doctor was waiting for Gu Baisheng to have a check-up after giving her a prescription.
Gu Baisheng needed to wait a bit, so she wandered in the hallway.
Song Shuang planned to stay with her.
But Jiang Shouyuan invited him to a meeting in person.
Song Shuang was a bit worried.
Gu Baisheng smiled, "It's fine. I can do it myself. You should go to work now."
Jiang Shouyuan looked at the doorplate and then at Gu Baisheng smilingly, "Very impressive, Song! You said that you were preparing for being a dad a few days ago. And now you'll be one!"
Gu Baisheng was stared at by others on her way to the B-type ultrasound room.
She felt that her pregnancy was a big deal and everyone in the hospital wanted to see what happened.
She didn't know how to respond when she was judged by other people many times.
She urged Song Shuang, "Go to the meeting."
Song Shuang noticed that Jiang Shouyuan was waiting for him.
It seemed that the meeting was very serious, so he nodded, "I'll come back later."
"Just go ahead."
Gu Baisheng pushed him gently.
Song Shuang looked at her worriedly and then left with Jiang Shouyuan.
Jiang Shouyuan noticed that Song Shuang couldn't help looking back at his wife.
He put his hands at his back and shared his own experience, "Are you worried? I was also extremely worried when my wife was pregnant with our first child."
Song Shuang smiled.
Every man would be worried when he knew that his sweetheart was probably pregnant with his child.
But apart from being worried, he might feel excited at the same time.
After all, it was their child.
Jiang Shouyuan noticed that Song Shuang was still worried, so he tried to comfort him, "Don't worry. Nothing will happen when you leave for such a short while. I'll set you free as soon as the meeting is over."
Song Shuang nodded.
He didn't care about the meeting at all.
Jiang Shouyuan noticed that he was so occupied with his wife, "The head of hepatological department went back today."
Speaking of the head of Song Shuang's department, Song Shuang frowned, "Is that true?"
"Yeah."
Jiang Shouyuan lifted his brows, "He lost so much weight and would go abroad."
Jiang Shouyuan exclaimed, "He used to be so strong, but now he's so slim. Illnesses are frightening."
Song Shuang became more serious when he heard about their head.
Song Shuang went to the meeting room.
And Gu Baisheng was waiting for her turn.
There were lots of people in the morning.
Lots of people went there to get checked.
More than half of them were young couples who were there for pregnancy tests.
One of them was crying.
The man next to her seemed to be gentle and held her hand, but his words were so cold, "It's not appropriate for us to have children now."
"But it's my first time to get pregnant. Do you want me to have an abortion?"
"But we're not married yet. And you're looking for a job. Your pregnancy will have a huge impact on your job."
"The staff benefit is very nice in my company. And I'll finish my internship before I give birth to the baby."
"It's more dangerous if you finish your internship before it."
"It's very likely that I'll be an actual employee." The girl was stubborn and touched her belly with both of her hands. It seemed that she wanted to keep the baby.
The man was impatient, "Be reasonable. Get an abortion after getting checked. We can have another baby after we get married and settle down."
The girl was still reluctant with her eyes reddening.
The doctor happened to call them in.
So, the man helped the girl in.
Gu Baisheng looked at the way that man tried to talk the girl into getting an abortion from the outside.
She looked down a bit.
She recalled the time when she was pregnant.
Cheng Bi was dead back then.
Song Shuang accompanied her to every examination.
But he never got impatient like this guy.
And he never mentioned anything bad about the baby.
He would never ask her to get an abortion.
Every time Song Shuang was there with her, he would look at her gently. When the doctors checked the details with her, he could remember them more clearly than she did.
And sometimes Song Shuang couldn't help caressing her belly carefully.
She never thought about Song Shuang's attitude back then.
But now she could feel his care by the way he looked at her.
It was clear that he really looked forward to the birth of the baby.
Although he was not the biological father of the child, he showed more expectation and concern than many other fathers.
But if it was true, how could he intentionally kill Shen?
Gu Baisheng bit her lip.
She still could think about the time when she suffered greatly from the loss of her child.
People around her gossiped, "He definitely didn't conduct the operation carefully because Shen was not his biological son."
"He just pretended to be nice to you and Shen. He has been waiting to get rid of your son for so long!"
She refuted, "He's not that kind of person!"
"You don't know what kind of person he really is. Every man wants to have their own son."
"Yeah, no one wants to raise other people's children."
She was firm at first, "He treated Shen as his son and didn't ask me to have his child. He doesn't care about whether Shen is his biological son or not."
"Silly girl, he faked it!"
"He's just afraid that it might hurt your feelings."
She refuted sadly, again and again, "That's impossible! He's not like that!"
But Lin Fengya showed up as Song Shuang mother and told her, "If you want to be my son's wife, you have to give birth to his child."
Lin Fengya's words made her heart cold down.
Her trust in Song Shuang gradually died out due to time and other people's gossips.
And Song Shuang suddenly told her, "Let's have another baby."
Her trust in Song Shuang suddenly collapsed.
She confronted him, "You didn't like Shen from the very beginning. You've been faking all these years! All you want is to have your own son!"
She didn't listen to his explanation.
And she rushed out despite his stop.
The next day, she got on the train to the disaster area in Hancheng.
She arrived at Hancheng, and then the accident happened to her.
She died there.
Her mistrust in Song Shuang made her suspect whether Song Shuang disliked that kid at all.
He was so happy when the child was born.
He couldn't fake the excitement to be a father.
Similarly, he couldn't fake the sadness of losing a child.
Song Shuang was soft inside, and he was not a cruel person.
She bit her lip and recalled her past memories.
But all of a sudden, she heard a couple talking in the hallway.
"Aren't they fractures? I heard that the portion in the yellow bottle was for fractures?"
"Doctors at the Second Hospital are reliable! If they said it was fine, what are you worrying about? Let's go!"
"I trust them, but your hand and leg are swollen and painful."
"It's just some small injuries."
"But it's been days and nothing improves. I think there's something wrong."
"Don't worry. We need to trust the doctors! How could they lie to you? They're not fractures."
They walked on.
Gu Baisheng couldn't help looking at them.
The couple was so occupied with the injuries.
They didn't pay any attention to the people around them.
But when they passed Gu Baisheng, they held the X-ray photo.
Gu Baisheng glanced at it.
But she found something wrong.
"Please wait a second."
She shouted.
The couple stopped when they heard it.
The man's head was wrapped in gauze.
The woman looked confusedly, "What can I do for you?"
"I want to see the X-ray photo. Is it OK?"
The woman didn't know why she wanted to see it.
But it didn't matter to show the X-ray photo to other people.
So she passed it to Gu Baisheng, "Here you are."
After taking it, Gu Baisheng lifted it up and took a close look. Then she frowned.
She heard their conversation.
They said there were no fractures.
The woman felt that Gu Baisheng was an expert, so she asked hesitantly, "Miss, can you understand it?"
"Yes."
Gu Baisheng said.
The woman became happy right away, "Are there any signs of fractures in it?"
Gu Baisheng looked at the man's hand, "Did the doctor say that your hand wasn't fractured?"
"Yes, that doctor said so."
Gu Baisheng felt confused, "But, according to the photo, there're two obvious fractures."
