âIn the future, she can help out at the company.
Hai Xiaotang always thought that was all she had in mind for her, just going to lend a hand.
But at this moment, upon seeing Dongfang Hen walking towards her in the garden, Hai Xiaotang suddenly understood something!
Her mother-in-law didnât merely want her to help.
She intended for her to inherit all of the Dongfang familyâs assetsâ¦
If Dongfang Yu doesnât come back, all of his possessions should certainly be inherited by Hai Xiaotang.
No, they should be inherited by his offspring, but Dongfang Yu doesnât have any children!
Childâ¦
Hai Xiaotang suddenly rose, just remembering that she might be bearing Dongfang Yuâs child in her belly.
She had been missing Dongfang Yu every day recently, completely forgetting about this matter!
The moment Hai Xiaotang remembered, she got very excited, nervous and hopeful.
Losing all considerations, she ran out of the gazebo, planning to go for a check-up immediately. She wanted to know at once whether she was pregnant or not.
However, she ran too fast and coupled with her weak physical state, Hai Xiaotang suddenly blacked out and fell to the ground!
And by luck, she fell right at Dongfang Henâs feetâ¦
The man overhead asked with concern, âWhy were you so careless?â
He bent down to help her up, but as his hand touched hers, Hai Xiaotang instinctively pushed him away, âNo need!â
She got up on her own and didnât even glance at him as she ran forward.
Dongfang Henâs gaze flickered. He raised his leg and followed herâ¦
Hai Xiaotang got back to the living room and ran into Housekeeper Zhang.
She pulled Housekeeper Zhang aside hastily and said, âHousekeeper Zhang, letâs go to the hospital now. Is there a chance Iâm carrying Dongfang Yuâs child? Letâs go check now!â
Housekeeper Zhang was startled and didnât react.
âHousekeeper Zhang, letâs go now!â Hai Xiaotang immediately panicked, âI havenât been eating or sleeping well lately, what if something happens to the baby? No, I canât let my mind wander, the child must be fine!â
âMissâ¦â started Housekeeper Zhang hesitantly, and under Hai Xiaotangâs puzzled gaze, she said with discomfort, âI didnât want to upset you, but in fact⦠youâre not pregnant.â
Hai Xiaotang was stunned, âWhat did you say?â
Housekeeper Zhang explained, âThe day after Young Master Dongfangâs accident, you fainted. We took you to the hospital for a check-up and the doctor said you arenât pregnant. We never told you because we didnât want to remind you of this, fearing that knowing would upset you even more.â
Hai Xiaotang couldnât believe it, âHow could that be? I havenât had my period and I have been showing symptoms of pregnancy. Dongfang Yu even said I was pregnant. How could I not be? Was the diagnosis wrong?â
âNo, itâs not wrong. Youâre really not pregnant.â
âButâ¦â
âThe doctor said itâs a false pregnancy. You wanted so badly to be pregnant that your body showed symptoms of a false pregnancyâ¦â
A false pregnancy?!
Hai Xiaotang felt this was like a bolt from the blue.
She had thought she was pregnant and was both looking forward to it and happy about it. Turns out there was nothing and it was all a false alarm!
But, how could there be nothing?
Hai Xiaotang was very distressed, âHousekeeper Zhang, are you really sure thereâs nothing? Could the check-up have been wrong?â
Housekeeper Zhang comforted her, âThereâs really nothing, but donât be upset, itâs okay to not have anything.â
âHow can there be nothing? Dongfang Yu needs a child. If he doesnât come back, I havenât even left a child behind for him!â Hai Xiaotang became increasingly self-reproachful, âWhy couldnât I get pregnant?!â
âYeah, it wouldâve been great if youâd gotten pregnant. That way, Dongfang Yu would have a successor.â Dongfang Henâs voice suddenly interjected.
