After swapping bodies, I became a domineering CEO in a melodramatic novel.
Chapter 8 Fake Pregnancy
At this moment, Grandma Qin noticed Qin Reng and beckoned to him, "Tongtong, come here."
Qin Reng walked to the bedside, and Grandma Qin took her hand and said earnestly, "Tongtong, I know there are some misunderstandings between you and Reng, but you are both good children. Grandma believes that you will be able to overcome these difficulties and live a good life."
Qin Reng didn't know how to answer, so he could only smile awkwardly.
Grandma Qin sighed, "Tongtong, Grandma knows you're suffering. Your parents passed away early, and you were all alone. It breaks my heart to see you like this. Now that you're married into the Qin family, you're a member of the Qin family, and Grandma will take good care of you."
Qin Reng felt a warmth in his heart as he listened to Old Madam Qin's words. Although he was not Yu Yuetong herself, he still felt a strange warmth in his heart upon hearing these words.
Just then, the ward door was suddenly pushed open, and a doctor in a white coat walked in.
"Mr. Qin's condition has suddenly deteriorated and he needs immediate resuscitation!"
The doctor's words were like a bomb, exploding in the ward, leaving everyone stunned...
The old man was eventually saved, lying pale-faced on the hospital bed like an oil lamp that might go out at any moment.
Yu Yuetong finally felt relieved. She breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling as if she had just finished a marathon, her whole body aching and weak.
Grandma Qin held Grandpa Qin's hand tightly, tears streaming down her face, murmuring, "God bless, God bless..."
Qin Reng stood to the side, his face gloomy, and remained silent.
Yu Yuetong secretly glanced at him and noticed that his clenched fist was trembling slightly, so he must be feeling bad too.
This sudden upheaval made Yu Yuetong realize even more that in the Qin family, the old man was the pillar of stability.
If he falls, the Qin family's great ship will likely capsize in the storm.
Back at the Qin family villa, the atmosphere between Yu Yuetong and Qin Reng was somewhat awkward. They sat in the living room, seemingly separated by a dividing line, neither speaking first.
Finally, Yu Yuetong broke the silence, "Qin Reng, the old man just said..."
"I know about the child." Qin Reng rubbed his temples, his voice weary. "Grandpa has always wanted a grandson, and this incident will probably only strengthen his resolve."
“But…” Yu Yuetong hesitated. She wanted to say that she had no intention of having a child with Qin Reng at all, and now that they had swapped bodies, how could they have a child?
They've already signed the divorce papers, so where did this child come from? Does she have to find a sperm donor?
"I know what you're thinking," Qin Reng said, as if he could read her mind. "But we can't ignore Grandpa's wish."
Yu Yuetong rolled her eyes. "Then tell me, what are we going to do? You can't expect me to conjure up a child out of thin air, can you?"
Qin Reng was silent for a moment, then made a suggestion that left Yu Yuetong speechless: "We can pretend to be pregnant."
"A fake pregnancy?!" Yu Yuetong nearly jumped off the sofa. "Are you crazy? What if they find out?"
Qin Reng remained calm. "It won't be discovered. I'll arrange everything; you just need to cooperate with me."
Yu Yuetong looked at him suspiciously, "Are you sure? The old man isn't stupid, what if he sees through our deception..."
"Don't worry, I have my own way." Qin Reng smiled confidently. "When the time comes, I will make Grandpa believe that the child in my belly is yours."
Yu Yuetong still felt the plan was too risky, but she had to admit it was the only option at the moment. The old man was frail and couldn't withstand any more stress; if they couldn't reassure him quickly, the consequences would be unimaginable.
“Alright,” Yu Yuetong gritted her teeth, “I agree. However, this is only a temporary measure. Once the old man’s health improves, we will still tell him the truth.”
"I know." Qin Reng nodded. "I will handle everything when the time is right."
Over the next few days, Qin Reng began his "fake pregnancy" life. Every day he had to pretend to be nauseous, sleepy, and emotionally unstable, and he also had to endure the meticulous care of Old Mrs. Qin, which was even more tiring than going to work.
Yu Yuetong plays the role of a devoted and caring husband, showering him with warmth and concern.
To outsiders, they appear to be a loving couple about to welcome the fruit of their love.
Only they themselves knew that it was all just a show.
Qin Reng clutched his chest, his brow furrowed, looking every bit like a delicate pregnant woman experiencing severe morning sickness. Yu Yuetong sat beside him with a worried expression, occasionally handing him a glass of warm water and gently patting his back. "Are you feeling better? Young Master Qin, is it really necessary to push yourself so hard for a fake pregnancy?"
Qin Reng rolled his eyes at her and groaned weakly, "You don't understand. You have to play the part completely, otherwise the old man is very shrewd and will see through the act immediately."
Yu Yuetong pouted, "I think you're just pretending on purpose, trying to take the opportunity to slack off."
Qin Reng ignored her, continuing to gag while clutching his chest, occasionally groaning. His exaggerated acting was comparable to that of a graduate of a drama school.
Grandma Qin was heartbroken, bringing him soup and tonics while muttering, "My dear granddaughter-in-law, you've suffered so much! It's all Grandma's fault for forcing you to have a child..."
Qin Reng was secretly pleased, but outwardly appeared even weaker. Leaning on Yu Yuetong's shoulder, he said weakly, "Grandma, I'm fine. It's all for the Qin family..."
Yu Yuetong was almost disgusted by his pretentious manner and barely managed not to push him away.
The performance was becoming more and more realistic, and even Yu Yuetong almost believed it to be true.
That day, the news that Qin Reng was "pregnant" reached the company, and the entire company was in an uproar.
"I heard the CEO's wife is pregnant? Is it true?"
"Really? Didn't they say they were forced into marriage?"
"It's definitely fake. The president and his wife are trying to fool the old man!"
Various rumors spread like wildfire, and some people even started betting on whether Qin Reng's baby was a boy or a girl.
Qin Reng, clutching his non-existent pregnant belly and supporting his back, staggered into the Qin Group building, drawing stares from countless employees. Today, he wore a loose maternity outfit and had applied some tired makeup, striving to perfectly portray the image of a wealthy woman suffering from pregnancy.
"Ouch..." He deliberately stumbled at the elevator entrance, and just as he was about to fall, a hand caught him in time.
"Be careful, Mrs. Qin." A deep, magnetic male voice sounded in her ear.
Qin Reng looked up and met Ji Momo's concerned gaze. He cursed his bad luck inwardly, but forced a weak smile: "Thank you, Manager Ji."
Ji Momo helped him into the elevator and asked casually, "When is the due date? Boy or girl?"
"The doctor said it's the end of the year, but we still don't know if it's a boy or a girl," Qin Reng replied perfunctorily, while secretly plotting how to get rid of this woman.
