Daily life of working as a substitute bride for a wealthy family

It's strange to say, when Xiang Ran first came to the Sheng family, every day felt like a year, and she counted the months on her fingers. But now, the time passes as fast as the wind blowing through the calendar paper, and another month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Miss Su Yiqing is still missing.

Su Yue only said to her, "Soon."

The rest is just vague.

Xiang Ran remembered that the doctor said she was worrying too much and that caused irregular menstruation, so she simply stopped asking.

muddle along.

Focus on relaxing your mind.

But her period still didn't come on time this month.

But it's not surprising.

Her periods are often irregular.

It happened that it was time for her scheduled outpatient clinic visit that day, so she decided to go see Professor Zhao again to take her pulse and see if she needed to adjust the prescription.

When they arrived at the clinic, Professor Zhao was still kind. He still remembered her. He asked about the symptoms after taking the medicine and asked Xiang Ran to stretch out her hand to feel his pulse.

After a while, he held his breath, concentrated, looked up and said, "A slippery pulse should be smooth and round, like pearls rolling on a jade plate."

Xiang Ran: ???

The intern assistant next to her asked, "Ms. Su, have you had a cold recently? Are you taking any Western medicine?"

Xiang Ran recalled for a moment and replied, "I don't have a cold. Apart from the medicine you prescribed, I haven't taken any Western medicine."

"Your period hasn't come yet? How many days late is it?"

"More than ten days, but my period is often delayed, sometimes even a month."

Professor Zhao smiled and said, "This pulse is slippery, so you must be pregnant. I estimate it's over a month. You can buy a pregnancy test strip first. The sensitivity of the current test strips is more accurate than taking the pulse to determine pregnancy."

"What?" Xiang Ran almost stood up from the stool.

I broke out in a cold sweat.

"Don't be nervous, Miss Su. Go get a urine test first to confirm," Professor Zhao advised. "Don't be afraid. It's okay. Many people try their best to plant flowers, but they never see them bloom. Young people, on the other hand, plant willows that grow into a beautiful tree. Since you're married, having children is a natural process. It doesn't matter whether you have it sooner or later."

"I've eaten hairy crabs recently... and also drank some wine." Xiang Ran made an excuse and asked tentatively, "So... is there any medicine that can still help..."

"Drinking a little wine and eating crabs isn't a big deal," Professor Zhao interrupted her. "If you're pregnant, I suggest you keep the baby. Your constitution isn't ideal for fertility, and your periods aren't very regular. I only have a pregnancy test strip for you. Take it now if you want. As for other tests, I suggest you make an appointment at the obstetrics and gynecology department at a general hospital this afternoon for a detailed examination."

Going to a public hospital involves real-name registration, which is very troublesome, so Xiang Ran hesitated.

But when she thought of the baby in her belly, she directly said to Professor Zhao: "Please give it to me first. I will test it and then go to the hospital."

In the bathroom, Xiang Ran inserted the pregnancy test strip into the urine cup.

Soon, two red lines appeared on the test paper, one dark and one light...

After a while, the light red line gradually became darker.

Two very clear bars.

Xiang Ran leaned against the toilet wall and took a long time to come back to her senses.

Just as Professor Zhao said, she was pregnant.

-

When she was leaving, Professor Zhao asked her to stay.

He also asked the intern to take Xiang Ran's pulse and taught her what "slippery pulse" is.

Back in the car, Xiang Ran stretched out two trembling fingers and touched it. It was indeed beating strongly, like the feeling of beads rolling.

In a daze, Xiang Ran returned to her room in Jinxiu Villa, her mind going blank.

It is autumn now, but she still feels that the sunlight outside the window is too strong, making her dizzy, so she gets up and draws the curtains.

I felt weak all over, even my hands were shaking a little.

She lifted the quilt and crawled in.

She was too young to know how to deal with it.

She shouldn't have skipped the pill that day.

And Sheng Yang, didn’t you say he was...outside?

And the Su family, if it weren't for that glass of wine? How could this happen?

But now she has to face it.

Maybe she had watched too many palace fighting dramas and was too afraid of the scene of miscarriage.

Whether it is medical abortion or surgical abortion, it is terrible.

She was not at all prepared to face all this.

She has to shoulder the responsibility of so many people alone...

-

Sheng Yang received a call from the clinic in the afternoon.

Professor Zhao's original words were, "The pregnancy test showed she's been pregnant for over a month. The Chinese medicine prescribed by the clinic had no effect on the pregnancy. I asked her and she wasn't taking any Western medicine. I told her to go to a general hospital for a checkup later, but Mrs. Sheng seemed a little worried about the pregnancy and didn't look very well." "Don't have sex for the first three months. From the fourth to the sixth month, you can have sex as appropriate."

He repeated Professor Zhao's words in his mind.

I feel very confused.

He was undoubtedly happy about the arrival of this child, but he was also aware of her consistent stance.

I wanted to go back early in the afternoon, but I was afraid of putting pressure on her.

So I still waited until the normal time to get off work to go home.

When I asked Xiaofu, I found out that she didn't go downstairs for dinner.

Sheng Yang's heart sank...

-

I opened the bedroom door and it was pitch black inside.

Sheng Yang walked in and turned on the floor lamp.

She muffled her voice under the quilt: "I feel a little uncomfortable and need to sleep for a while."

"Want something to eat?"

"No." She didn't stick her head out.

Sheng Yang didn't leave, he sat down beside the bed.

Xiang Ran felt the mattress collapse and could sense his eyes lingering behind her.

The silence in the room was suffocating.

She opened her eyes, lifted the thin blanket and reached out to pull him: "Sleep with me for a while, okay."

Of course.

Sheng Yang felt heartbroken when he saw her snow-white face, which was completely bloodless.

He took off his coat and hugged her: "Yiqing...are you feeling unwell?"

She didn't say anything, just hugged him and kissed him.

"Sheng Yang." She said his name, the ending tone was very light, "I want you."

Gentle breath sprayed on his Adam's apple.

At this time, she wants him?

And then create an accident?

Sheng Yang's heart ached. Her behavior really made him feel pain deep in his heart.

"Are you sure?" Sheng Yang pressed his thin lips against Xiang Ran's soft ears.

The woman beneath him trembled slightly.

"Yes. Faster! Faster." She seemed to reach out and pull him, becoming the active party.

(50-100 words omitted here)

Sheng Yang frowned and held her hand: "What's wrong with you today?"

Xiang Ran leaned against him with disheveled hair, like a deflated doll.

She twitched the corners of her mouth: "Forget it if you don't want to. It's nothing. I-I'm going to take a shower."

"I'll carry you there, okay?"

She got up, took a hairpin from the drawer, turned around and smiled at him: "No need. I'll take a shower and be back soon."

-

She went to the bathroom.

But the drawer was not closed tightly.

Sheng Yang saw a medicine bottle inside.

He became alert and checked on his mobile phone, confirming that this drug, when used in combination with another drug called "misoprostol", would cause miscarriage.

When Sheng Yang picked up the medicine bottle, his palms were sweaty.

Fortunately.

After opening the bottle cap, Sheng Yang breathed a sigh of relief - the contents were still unopened.

He couldn't take it any longer.

Ran to the bathroom and opened the sliding door——
