Abort the Child
Huo Xiaoran’s handsome face was ashen. Zhou Zhou didn’t remember that bet, but he remembered it clearly. That was the bet Qiao An and Zhou Zhou had made a few days ago. Whoever got pregnant first would be given a generous gift.
Huo Xiaoran glared at Qiao An in extreme shock, his voice trembling. “An’an, you went to the hospital today? Are you pregnant?”
Qiao An nodded excitedly. “Brother Xiaoran, you’re going to be a daddy again.”
Huo Xiaoran shook his head in resistance. “Why? Why now? An’an, you can’t have this child. Your body isn’t suitable for pregnancy at all.” He said with difficulty.
Qiao An stuffed the examination report in her hand to Huo Xiaoran, her excitement not decreasing. “Brother Xiaoran, I can get pregnant. Look, that’s what the doctor said.”
“Which quack is so muddle-headed?” Huo Xiaoran was furious.
Qiao An was stunned.
A regretful voice lingered in the air. “Zhouzhou, I want children too. We have to work hard and strive to be born with Sister An’an’s child. This way, the children can play and go to school together. How good is that?”
Huo Xiaoran glared at her with a dark expression.
Huo Zhou tugged at Sisi, indicating for her to quickly shut up and not add fuel to the fire.
Huo Xiaoran said firmly, “An’an, I can’t have this child. Our family doesn’t have a throne to inherit. We already have three children. We don’t need a child anymore.”
Qiao An was angry. “Xiaoran, if the child hadn’t come, we could have chosen. But the child’s already here. It would be too cruel not to want it. Besides, I like children. You like them too. I know you’re worried about my health. Look at the examination report first. The doctor said that my body is very suitable for pregnancy.”
Huo Xiaoran was speechless.
“How can a cancer patient be suitable for pregnancy? That doctor only considered the child and not you?”
“Aiya, I can’t explain it to you. Look at the report,” Qiao An said anxiously.
Falcon and Father Qiao ran out when they heard the children arguing.
“What’s wrong with Xiaoran? Why did you quarrel with An’an? Can’t you give in to An’an?” Falcon said.
Father Qiao looked at An’an with red eyes. “An’an, what exactly is going on?”
Qiao An comforted her father. “Dad, it’s fine. Don’t worry.”
Huo Xiaoran said angrily, “How are you fine? You’re not in good health. If you’re pregnant, you have to abort the child.”
Falcon and Father Qiao were dumbfounded. “An’an, are you pregnant?”
An’an nodded.
Falcon said, “An’an, Xiaoran is right about this. Although I would like my grandchild very much, your health is more important.”
Father Qiao protested excitedly, “An’an, the child is important, but he’s not as important as you. You should abort this child as soon as possible.”
Qiao An stomped her feet. “Jeez. Can you guys read the examination report first? If you still don’t welcome this child, I’ll abort it.”
Sisi couldn’t help but laugh. She was an outsider, so she knew the crux of this conflict. She went straight to the point and reminded Xiaoran, “Brother Xiaoran, Sister An’an is in good health. The previous cancer diagnosis was a doctor’s misdiagnosis.”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.
The air was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Only then did Huo Xiaoran eagerly flip through the examination report. When he saw Qiao An’s pregnancy diagnosis and scans, Huo Xiaoran was petrified.
He stood rooted to the ground.
The surprise came too quickly.
A moment ago, he was struggling in hell. Now, he was flying in the clouds. His entire body and mind became happy.
“An’an is not sick.” After a long time, Huo Xiaoran came back to his senses and murmured.
Father Qiao and Falcon were also stunned.
“Xiaoran, is this true? Is An’an really not sick?”
Huo Xiaoran seriously interpreted the report here. Then, a bright smile bloomed on his face. “It’s true. An’an isn’t sick. The previous nodules were fake. This is very, very rare in medicine.”
Father Qiao and Falcon high-fived and cheered. “This is great. Haha, my An’an is not sick.”
Qiao An saw that the dark clouds that had hung over them for many days had finally dissipated. Qiao An smiled brightly.
“Dad, I’m not sick. Then can the child in my womb stay now?”
Father Qiao and Falcon were stunned and looked at Xiaoran in unison.
In such a matter, the two sensible fathers still had to return the decision to Xiaoran.
Xiaoran was still immersed in the joy of Qiao An not being sick. He kept saying, “So vomiting and fainting were pregnancy reactions?”
Such a huge mistake made Xiao Ran feel a lingering fear.
He couldn’t help but reprimand Qiao An softly. “An’an, didn’t we take precautions?”
Qiao An said, “I might have been hit during the safe period.”
Huo Xiaoran was embarrassed.
Huo Zhou said enviously, “Xiaoran, you’re going to be a father again. I’m really envious of you.”
Father Qiao smiled and said, “Zhou Zhou, you have to work hard.”
Huo Zhou pulled Sisi and said, “Let’s go home and make babies. We can’t fall behind too much.”
Huo Zhou and Sisi left happily.
Huo Xiaoran happily picked Qiao An up and cheered, “An’an, you’re not sick. That’s great. Thank the heavens.”
Falcon reminded Huo Xiaoran, “Aiya, Xiaoran, An’an is pregnant. You have to be careful.”
Father Qiao said happily, “Since An’an is pregnant, I’ll be in charge of the three meals at home in the future. An’an, tell me what you like to eat. I’ll learn to make it. I guarantee that I’ll feed you and the child until you’re fair and fat.”
Xiaoran carefully placed Qiao An on the ground. Qiao An was spun a few times and was dizzy. Her nausea immediately attacked.
Falcon reprimanded Xiaoran, “Xiaoran, take it easy. An’an’s pregnancy reaction is so serious. You should let her stay in bed and rest more.”
Xiaoran smiled at Father Qiao and said, “Dad, I’ll be in charge of An’an’s food.”
Father Qiao said, “Yes, yes, yes. You’re good at cooking, and your An’an likes to eat more. Then I’ll be in charge of buying ingredients every day.”
Falcon said, “Then what should I do? Should I do something for An’an too?”
Qiao An was flattered. She smiled. “I’m just pregnant. I’m not incapacitated. I can take care of myself. Are you treating me like a national treasure?”
Falcon said, “An’an, you gave birth to a few smart and cute children for my family. Aren’t these children my family’s national treasures? If Xiaoran’s grandfather was by our side, I wonder how happy he would be. He often says that having many children and grandchildren is a blessing.”
Qiao An and Xiaoran looked at each other. Falcon had mentioned Grandpa repeatedly, which showed how much he missed his family.
