He put his cup down. He didn’t know what to say for a moment.

  According to his calculation, it should have been from the last time Fu Tingyu went to the capital.

  After the pulse consultation just now, he diagnosed that Qin Shu was pregnant and she got pregnant quite recently.

  He couldn’t diagnose it in the past because the time was too short.

  She had been bitten by a snake on the mountain, injected with the serum, and then taken some medicine.

  After taking these drugs, she wasn’t able to keep the baby at all. There was a possibility of stillbirth too.

  Whether or not she could give birth to the child was a problem. It might even put Qin Shu in danger.

  The pain Qin Shu was having in her lower abdomen was because of s*x too.

  Seeing that Gu Yan did not speak for a long time, Qin Shu could not help but felt even more uneasy. “What’s wrong with my body? Is there something wrong?”


  Gu Yan hesitated and said, “You’re pregnant. According to the time, it should be when Fu Tingyu went to the capital.”


  Qin Shu smiled happily when she heard that she was pregnant. Fu Tingyu had always wanted to have a child. If a child could make him feel at ease, she was willing to have one.

  Before her smile could spread across her face, she saw Gu Yan’s expression. She had a bad feeling.

  Soon, Gu Yan gave her the answer.

  “This child came at a bad time. You were bitten by a poisonous snake, injected with the serum, and took some medicine. Hence, you can’t have this child,” Gu Yan said with difficulty.

  This answer was a heavy blow to Qin Shu.

  She lowered her eyes and unconsciously put her hand on her lower abdomen. It was still hurting.

  Gu Yan lowered his eyes in embarrassment and said in a low voice, “Also, don’t have s*x with each other during this period of time.”


  He coughed lightly, “early stage of pregnancy is unstable.”


  Qin Shu blushed slightly. She understood what Gu Yan meant.

  “I’ll arrange an operation for you. The sooner you do it, the faster your body will recover.”


  Hearing Gu Yan telling her that he would arrange an operation, Qin Shu’s heart ached. She gripped the hem of her clothes tightly with her hands that were on her legs. “Let me think about it again. I……” She could not bear to abort the child. It was Fu Tingyu and her child.

  Gu Yan knew that she was reluctant. “Not only am I a doctor, but I’m also Yu’s buddy. I’ve been his friend since we were young. I don’t want his child to be aborted just like that too. This is the last resort.”


  “.…… I……” Qin Shu knew that Gu Yan was not a person who would give up easily. If he could save this child, he would definitely do his best to save the child. However, she still could not bear to do so. It felt like she was digging a piece of meat out of her body. Blood was dripping and the pain was unbearable.

  Gu Yan said, “Take care of your body and it won’t be difficult to have a child again.”


  Qin Shu lowered her eyes and bit her lips. She still could not make up her mind.

  Gu Yan continued to persuade her, “There’s not much time left. The damage to the body will be reduced a lot after the surgery. You will recover quickly. It’s only a matter of time before you recover and have a child again.”


  Qin Shu nodded after a long silence.

  Fu Tingyu must not know about this. If he knew that she was bitten by a poisonous snake because she went up the mountain to pick herbs, he would definitely blame himself again for losing the child.

  The blow from the weakening of his martial art was already enough for him.

  Telling him that the child was going to be aborted was equivalent to giving him double stimulation.

  “Then, I’ll arrange for you to receive surgery and prepare the medicine for your recovery after the surgery.” After Gu Yan finished speaking, he looked at Qin Shu and asked again, “You’re not going to tell Yu, right?”


  Qin Shu shook her head. “I don’t want him to suffer another blow.”


  “Then what do you plan to do next? in the month after the surgery, if Yu has any requests, can you hide from it from him?”


  It was impossible to hide because the husband and wife were living together.

  Qin Shu thought for a while. When she was with the man, those things could not be avoided. If she refused, the man would definitely let his imagination run wild again.

  “I plan to go back to school.”


  Hearing that, Gu Yan nodded helplessly. “I guess that’s the only solution. It will be better if you are separated. I will call you to inform you of the surgery time. It will be in the next few days. Do get ready.”


  Qin Shu nodded but she still couldn’t accept it.

  On the road.

  Qin Shu sat in the car and looked out the window at the rapidly retreating scenery of trees. She placed her hand on her lower abdomen. This was his and her child.

  However, she didn’t have the ability to protect the child.

  If she had been stronger, she would have discovered the poisonous snake behind Qi Zhu and wouldn’t have been bitten by it.

  At this moment, her phone suddenly rang.

  She took out her phone and looked at the caller ID. The number was unfamiliar. She was about to reject it when she saw from the corner of her eye that it was from Imperial City.

  She changed her mind and picked up the call.

  She placed the phone beside her ear and heard a very clear and shallow voice, “It’s me, Jun Li.”


  Jun Li was standing on the balcony. He was wearing a white shirt and light-colored pants. His gaze was fixed on the apartment not far away. Against the light, his face was so pale that not a trace of blood could be seen on it.

  Hearing the familiar voice, Qin Shu knew that it was Jun Li. “Why did you change your number? I almost hung up.”


  “I just changed it. You went home, didn’t you?” Jun Li changed his position and half leaned against the railings, putting all his weight on the railings.

  “Yes, I’ve been back for a week. Did you go to the apartment to look for me?”


  “Yes, I suddenly felt like eating candy two days ago and knocked on your door. That’s when I remembered that you’re not in your apartment.”


  “I forgot to tell you that I have something urgent to attend to at home. I even asked someone else to apply for leave for me.”


  “When are you going back to school then? The monthly exam has already passed. You need to take a make-up exam.”


  “Within these few days. After settling the matters at home, I’ll go back to school.”


  “Alright, have fun at home.”


  Jun Li hung up the phone. Looking at the piercing sunlight, he felt a little dizzy.

  At this moment, Su Ying came over. “Young master, there’s news.”


  Jun Li lowered his eyes and stopped looking at the sun above his head. He asked, “Is the news reliable?”


  Su Ying replied, “It’s reliable. I’ll send someone over.”


  “There’s no need for that now. Wait a little longer.” Jun Li stood up straight. The moment he took a step forward, a sudden dizziness made his vision go black and his body started to wobble.

  Just as he was about to fall, Su Ying’s expression tensed up and he reacted quickly. He stretched out his arms to support him.

  “Young master, are you alright?” Su Ying hurriedly shouted.

  “I’m fine. I’m just a little dizzy.”


  Jun Li’s voice was light and his body weight was leaning entirely on Su Ying’s body. He put one hand on Su Ying’s shoulder and pushed himself up in an attempt to stand up. In the end, he still could not stand up. He gave up directly and leaned against Su Ying’s body.

  Su Ying held Jun Li with both hands and looked down at Jun Li’s pale face. He couldn’t help but worry. “Young master, I’ll call the doctor.”


  Jun Li closed his eyes and said in a low voice, “No need. He won’t be able to detect anything.”


  “But young master, you……”


  Su Ying was interrupted by Jun Li before he could finish, “Don’t talk. My head hurts.”


  Su Ying heard what he said and stopped speaking. He knew young master’s temper too well.

  But, those doctors really can’t detect anything. Otherwise, how could the young master’s illness be delayed until now and hadn’t been cured?
