The white rose I picked up cried and said she liked me.

Obstetrics and Gynecology Department, 10th Floor, Outpatient Department, First Affiliated Hospital of Yuncheng Medical University.

Xu Nian paced back and forth outside a consultation room, her nervousness evident.

"Calm down, Brother Xu," Qi Yu said calmly, sitting on a bench nearby. "This kind of examination won't be dangerous. It's not like you're having surgery. You can rest assured."

Even so, Xu Nian's heart was still not at peace.

He looked at the "Men Not Allowed" sign outside the consultation room and sighed silently.

A moment later, the door to the examination room clicked open.

With Zhao Lin's support, Xu Xi slowly walked out of the consultation room.

"How is it? What did the doctor say?" Xu Nian hurriedly got up, went to greet him, and asked anxiously.

Xu Xi lowered her head shyly, covered her mouth and chuckled softly, her eyes filled with happiness.

Zhao Lin, who was standing to the side, handed a medical report to Xu Nian: "Here, take a look for yourself."

Xu Nian hurriedly took the report, turned to the last page, and stared wide-eyed after seeing the printed contents.

"Little...Little Stream," he asked incredulously, "You...you're pregnant?"

Xu Xi smiled gently and nodded shyly: "Brother, you're going to be a father."

These words were like a thunderclap in Xu Nian's ears, and a mix of emotions—surprise, bewilderment, excitement, and helplessness—rushed into her mind in an instant.

He crouched down, trembling, and pressed his ear against Xu Xi's belly, pretending to listen intently, as if he could really feel the subtle fetal movements.

The little life inside is Xu Nian's own flesh and blood.

He will have a relative in this world with the same blood.

Zhao Lin smiled and bent down, gently patting Xu Nian's shoulder: "The doctor said that Xu Xi's health is very poor, and the probability of conceiving naturally is less than one in ten thousand, so you must take good care of her and cherish this child."

"Yes...yes, I know, I know," Xu Nian murmured, still reeling from the overwhelming surprise. She remained standing there, gently stroking Xu Xi's belly, occasionally letting out silly giggles.

"Oh no, another one's gone crazy," Qi Yu joked, standing up to look at Xu Xi and Zhao Lin. "So, Xu Xi's loss of appetite and vomiting after eating is due to pregnancy?"

Zhao Lin nodded: "That's right, it's morning sickness. I had the same thing when I first got pregnant, didn't you? Look at your memory, you even said I was going to turn into a ghoul."

Upon hearing this, Qi Yu scratched his head awkwardly and gave an embarrassed smile.

After returning home, Xu Nian immediately rushed to the supermarket and browsed the fresh produce section.

Zhao Lin told him that pregnant women's tastes become very picky and change frequently. In order to take good care of Xu Xi, who has become picky about food after becoming pregnant, he bought one of every kind of vegetable he could find and planned to cook it for Xu Xi in different ways to see if he could satisfy her taste.

In addition, he bought many nutritional supplements such as vitamins and calcium tablets, as well as things that he thought Xu Xi might need.

After arriving home with bags and packages, Xu Xi looked at Xu Nian pushing the wheelchair out of the trunk and couldn't help but laugh and cry: "Brother, I'm pregnant, not that I broke my leg. Why did you buy this?"

Xu Nian scratched his head and said awkwardly, "I bought this because I was afraid you would fall while walking. I'll push you around when we go out in the future."

"My goodness..." Xu Xi smiled helplessly, "Brother, do you know that I need to exercise every day? If I'm always sitting in a wheelchair being pushed around by you, my health will deteriorate, which will affect the baby's health."

"Ah, that's true." Xu Nian then remembered the doctor's instructions, looked at the wheelchair in her hands, and couldn't help but chuckle.

They say pregnancy makes you stupid for three years, but why is it that the new moms don't get stupid, but the new dads do?

That night, the two lay on the large bed in the bedroom, holding hands and talking.

"What a coincidence, it's really too much of a coincidence," Xu Nian exclaimed. "I thought I would have to wait a few years to do IVF, but I didn't expect to get pregnant so quickly."

Xu Xi smiled sweetly: "Brother, if we count the days, it's probably from the time in the entryway."

Upon hearing this, Xu Nian couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

The famous scene from the anime actually brought them good luck in getting pregnant.

He gently rubbed Xu Xi's belly and teased, "You said last time that if I got pregnant, I'd have an abortion, what do you say? Want to do it like you said?"

"No way!" Xu Xi pouted, instinctively covering her belly, and muttered, "It wasn't easy for me to get pregnant."

Xu Nian smiled gently and placed his broad palm on her small hand on her stomach.

If it really comes to an abortion, he, as the father, would probably be the first to object.

Xiaoxi is right. Children are the crystallization of their parents' love and the continuation of life.

He hadn't felt much before, but now that Xiaoxi was pregnant with his child, his sense of responsibility and protectiveness had been amplified.

He secretly vowed to fulfill his responsibilities as a father and take good care of Xiaoxi and the child in her womb.

"Brother! Brother! Listen!" Xu Xi gently patted her belly, her eyes shining. "Our little baby is saying hello to you!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Nian pressed her ear against the glass.

"Yes, he's so lively and cute, just like his mother."

......

With the end of the semester approaching, Xu Nian, who had been on leave for several days, returned to Yuncheng University a few days later.

However, he wasn't there to take the final exams; he was there to apply for a leave of absence.

Even though he longed to learn more, there was something more important in his life now: taking care of Xu Xi and the baby in her womb.

Even though Xu Xi is currently in the early stages of pregnancy and is no different from an ordinary person, able to run and jump and fully capable of taking care of herself, Xu Nian is still unwilling to take any risks and plans to stay by Xu Xi's side all day long as her personal attendant.

"Brother Xu, it's been a long time! Where have you been all this time?" Xiao Chen, Su Zhe, and Luo Chen greeted Xu Nian as they saw him.

"I've been busy with family matters these past few days, so I haven't been to school," Xu Nian said with a smile and waved to the three of them.

He was in a very good mood after the happy event in his family.

But he quickly realized something was wrong. "Huh? Jiang Xun isn't with you guys? Where did he go?"

You know, these four people in the dorm are so close they're practically inseparable. Unless they're looking for their romantic partners to reconnect, they're always together and never separate.

Jiang Xun was the only single person among them. It wouldn't be surprising if anyone left the group alone, but it was very strange that Jiang Xun left.
