Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep

On a bright and sunny morning, He Yimei and He Yichen drove home.

He Yichen drove He Yimei around, letting her sit and rest while he drove.

I haven't had a proper rest in a long time, so I'll take advantage of this trip home to enjoy myself.

Returning home to be their parents' princess, Mr. and Mrs. He warmly welcomed the couple back, preparing a large table of their favorite dishes.

At the dinner table, seeing that the two men were not young, He's mother first asked the older He Yichen, "Yichen, you've been away for so long, have you met any girls you like?"

Upon hearing this, He Yichen looked at He Yimei, and seeing that she didn't react, he turned his head and replied, "I do have someone I like."

He Yimei glanced at him and continued eating.

Mrs. He was delighted: "Really? Then bring it back for Auntie to see sometime."

Mr. He: "Yes, Yichen, you and Yimei are not young anymore, it's time to consider marriage."

He Yichen: "It depends on her mind, when she's willing to accept me."

He looked at He Yimei and said, but He Yimei pretended not to notice him.

Mother He: "That definitely requires their consent. Yi Mei, have you encountered any similar situations?"

He Yichen stared at her, watching to see what she would say.

Before He Yimei could even speak, with her favorite food still in her mouth, she felt nauseous and dry heaved to the side.

"Ugh~"

"What's wrong?" The whole family looked at her anxiously.

He Yichen stood up, poured her a glass of water, and patted her back.

Looking at her with worried eyes, He Yimei felt a little better seeing how anxious he was.

Just as she felt nauseous and about to vomit, He Yimei guessed that she might be pregnant. Considering their current situation, she felt that the child had come at an inopportune time.

But seeing how worried he was about me made me feel more relaxed; being pregnant definitely makes me more emotionally sensitive.

"It's alright, we just ate a little too fast. Let's continue eating," He Yimei said, trying to reassure everyone.

Once she was sure there was nothing else, everyone continued eating.

"If you feel unwell, go to the hospital to get it checked out," Mrs. He said, still concerned.

He Yichen: "I'll take you to the hospital tomorrow."

Mr. He: "Yi Mei should still go and see her, just to put your mind at ease."

Seeing that everyone was worried about her, and knowing that she would find out sooner or later anyway, He Yimei nodded.

"Okay, I'll go take a look tomorrow."

Everyone relaxed when they saw that she was willing to go to the hospital.

Mr. He: "Yichen, take Yimei to the hospital tomorrow. Your aunt and I have to go to work."

Mrs. He: "If anything happens, just call us and we'll take leave immediately."

He Yichen: "Okay, I'll take some people there tomorrow."

It's already late today, it's dark, I'll go there first thing tomorrow morning.

He Yimei wondered what his expression would be if he found out she was really pregnant tomorrow, and suddenly felt a little curious.

The next morning, after breakfast, Mr. and Mrs. He went to work, leaving only the two of them at home.

He Yichen: "Pack your things, we're going to the hospital."

He Yimei wore a T-shirt, shorts, and white sneakers, and tied her hair in a high ponytail, looking like a college student.

When He Yichen saw this outfit, which was different from usual, he felt as if he had returned to the time when the two of them were in school.

"It's rare to see you dressed like this since you started working."

He Yimei: "Work requires a formal and mature appearance to facilitate business discussions."

He Yichen agreed, saying that he also wore a suit and tie every day for work.

He drove to the hospital, registered, and then went for a consultation.

Doctor: Where does it hurt?

He Yichen: "She suddenly felt nauseous and wanted to vomit."

The doctor glanced at him: "When was your last period?"

He Yimei: "At the beginning of last month."

It's already the middle of the month, and it's been delayed by half a month.

Doctor: "Go get a checkup."

He Yichen took He Yimei to get checked, and then waited for the results.

When the results came out, I took the report to the doctor I had just seen.

He Yichen asked anxiously, "Doctor, is there a problem?"

Doctor: "You're pregnant, four weeks along."

He Yichen was too surprised to speak for a moment. He Yimei asked, "Is everything alright? Is there anything we need to be careful about?"

Doctor: "There's nothing wrong. Just be careful during the first three months and have a prenatal checkup every four weeks."

He Yichen snapped out of his reverie: "Okay, doctor. Are there any dietary restrictions?"

Doctor: "A light and balanced diet is fine."

He Yichen learned about some more issues, and the two left the hospital.

In the car

He Yichen said, "Yi Mei, let's get married!"

He Yimei: "Because of the child?"

He Yichen explained, "The child is one reason, but I also really want to marry you. You may not like me yet, but I will always put you and the child first and listen to you. Can you give me this chance?"

He looked at her with a mixture of nervousness and anticipation in his eyes.

He Yimei looked at his expression for a while before saying, "Okay, it's not like I have no feelings for you at all."

He Yichen exclaimed in surprise, "Really?"

He Yimei nodded: "Yes, I just didn't know how to face the change in our relationship at first. As for what happened that night, even though you took the initiative and were forceful, I still acquiesced in the end."

He Yichen was overjoyed when he heard what she said, and he hugged her excitedly.

"Then let's go back tonight and talk to our parents to discuss the wedding."

He Yimei nodded, a slight smile on her face.

He Yichen was filled with excitement and joy the whole way, feeling that today was truly a good day.

I finally got what I wanted, and my eyes welled up with tears of excitement.

I turned to look at her and realized it was real.

They ate lunch outside and then picked out some comfortable clothes and shoes.

He Yimei mostly wears work clothes and high heels.

Even when you're pregnant, you still need to buy some soft and delicate clothes and shoes, but try to wear high heels less often.

He Yichen even forbade her from wearing high heels anymore and discussed with her that she should rest well during her pregnancy and find someone to manage her work.

He Yimei felt that it was okay to rest during pregnancy, since she was the one handling the important matters anyway, and her current physical condition prevented her from socializing.

When He Yichen got home in the evening, he cooked dinner and waited for everyone to return.

He Yichen took out the medical report and showed it to his parents.

"Uncle and Aunt, Yimei is pregnant, and we want to get married."

Mr. He was the first to react, looking at Yi Mei's belly in surprise and saying, "What! When did you two start this?"

Mrs. He also chimed in anxiously, "Yes, Yichen said yesterday that he has someone he likes."

He Yichen explained, "The person I like is Yi Mei. I've liked her for a long time, but Yi Mei just promised me that the matter of the child was my fault."

Mr. and Mrs. He were a little stunned; things had developed too suddenly.

However, Yi Chen was someone the two of them had watched grow up, so they knew his character.

It would be good for Yi Mei and Yi Chen to be together. They grew up together and are both good at studying and outstanding. Yi Chen has always taken care of Yi Mei.

After thinking it through, Mrs. He said, "We already have a child, let's prepare for the wedding."

Mr. He had the same idea as her: "Let's pick a suitable day and then inform our relatives and friends."

He Yichen smiled and said, "Thank you, Uncle and Aunt."
