My Lovely Wife is a Forensic Doctor - Chapter 195
Chapter 195 Her Helpless Love for Him
Mu Yu was shocked by the gynecologist’s expression and her heart was throbbing wildly. She could feel her back getting uncontrollably hot. Staring fearfully at the silent gynecologist, she had wanted to ask questions for a few times, but the fear of hearing bad news forced the words back.
Beside them, Qin Jinhuan seemed more nervous than Mu Yu. Pursing his lips, his laser-sharp gaze focused on the gynecologist without blinking.
Finally, the gynecologist slowly pulled her hand back.
“How’s the baby?” He immediately fired the question. The gynecologist looked at him with uneasiness and carefully checked with Mu Yu with some questions on menstruation before turning to Qin Jinhuan. “You said that your wife is pregnant. Where did you do the checkup?”
Qin Jinhuan’s face was plastered with band-aids, and he didn’t get the chance to change into fresh clothes from the factory incident site. Therefore, the gynecologist did not recognize that the man in front of her was the famous president of Qing Tian Group in An City. However, she could tell from his procession and his aura that he must be someone important, which was why she exercised caution when she took Mu Yu’s pulse and when she addressed him.
“Before this… But is that important to know?”
“Yes, it’s important!” She nodded furiously.
“We didn’t get a hospital checkup,” Mu Yu softly replied and the gynecologist swiftly turned to her. “How did you confirm the pregnancy then?”
Qin Jinhuan answered, “Our family doctor told us so.”
“Oh.” The gynecologist now focused on Qin Jinhuan. “How did your family doctor come to the conclusion that your wife is pregnant?”
His face suddenly fell. “What are you implying?”
Knowing that there was a misunderstanding, she hurriedly waved her hand and explained, “Please don’t take it the wrong way. I did not mean anything more. I just wanted to know how you confirmed your wife’s pregnancy.”
After some thinking, he replied, “I think it’s probably through a pregnancy test strip. Is there a problem?”
“Oh. No wonder I could not read the accurate pulse.”
His face tensed up at the remark. “What do you mean?”
Mu Yu was taken aback. “You mean I’m not pregnant?”
Wary of making blunders, the gynecologist did not want to give them an affirmative answer. “No, I did not mean that. I was saying that I did not detect the pregnancy from reading your pulse and couldn’t confirm your pregnancy. That’s why I cannot comment anything on your baby’s situation.”
Mu Yu took her words as a roundabout consolation and burst into tears. “Are you saying that we’ve lost the baby? Just now, I felt a pain in my abdomen and it’s getting worse now.”
Qin Jinhuan hugged her in a panic while screaming at the doctor, “Why aren’t you getting her emergency help? If anything happens to my wife, I won’t let you off the hook!”
“You have abdominal pain? Why didn’t you tell us earlier?” The gynecologist was equally panicky as she dashed forward to give Mu Yu a checkup and ordered nurses to get her some assistants.
“Yu!”
“Family members, please stay out!” At the same time, the gynecologist had drawn the curtains between them. Soon, another three to four medical assistants showed up and pushed Qin Jinhuan out of the room before shutting the doors to the emergency room.
Qin Jinhuan was left standing at the doors and plunged in turmoil once again.
“Boss…” Bian Zijun wanted to hand him some clothes to change into but Qin Jinhuan pushed him away, demanding to know, “Isn’t Ying here yet?”
Bian Zijun checked his watch. “She should be here soon.”
Right after that, hurried footsteps were heard from the end of the long corridor. The two men turned around to see Rong Ying walking over with three to four people.
At the sight of Qin Jinhuan, Rong Ying immediately broke into a jog while asking loudly, “Huan, where’s Yu?”
“In the emergency room. She said she has abdominal pain!”
“Abdominal pain? Oh god!” Rong Ying had no time to ask more and ran to the doors, forcing her way into the emergency room with the others.
“Hey, who are you… Eh? Director Rong? Why are you here?”
After that, the rest of the conversation was inaudible to Qin Jinhuan because the doors to the emergency room were shut. He could only stand still at the doors, waiting to receive some good news soon.
Bian Zijun hesitated before approaching him to offer consolation, “Boss, don’t worry. Now that Director Rong is here, young mistress will be fine.”
Ignoring him, Qin Jinhuan lingered at the doors like a guardian deity.
Around ten minutes later, the doors opened and a few medical staff members pushed a trolley bed out from within. When Qin Jinhuan saw Mu Yu lying motionless on the bed, his face turned pale and quickly went around the bed to take her hand, shouting her name in a hoarse voice.
“Huan…” Mu Yu mumbled.
“Huan, please get out of the way! They will send Yu for a checkup!” Rong Ying’s anxious voice cut Mu Yu off.
“A checkup? Yu…”
The sound of the moving wheels drained out Qin Jinhuan’s voice. He wanted to follow them but was pulled back by Rong Ying. “Huan…”
“Quick, go save her!”
“Huan, don’t panic. Listen to me. Yu is safe. She’s doing fine…”
“If she’s fine, why is she getting a checkup?”
“She complained of abdominal pain. I will have my doctors perform an ultrasound on her to get an idea of the situation.”
“Is the baby in danger?” Qin Jinhuan had just taken a seat before jumping up and shoving Rong Ying in the direction of the trolley bed. “Go take a look now. No matter what happens to the baby, please make sure that Yu is safe!”
“Yu is not pregnant!”
“What?” Qin Jinhuan froze in shock and disbelief. “How is that possible? But Lei Zhi told us personally…”
“I’ve talked to Lei Zhi in the room. He said that the pregnancy test strip showed two lines, but the second line was rather faint. That time, he could not confirm the pregnancy because the test was done too close to Mu Yu’s ovulation period. But grandpa took it as a positive result and was extremely excited. He then had everyone make preparations to welcome the baby. As you know, grandpa’s not in good health and Lei Zhi dared not upset him. That’s why he could only pray that Yu was really pregnant. To be honest, a lot of factors affected the accuracy of the pregnancy test. Just now, I requested that Yu took another stick pregnancy test. The two lines did not show up, which means that she is likely not pregnant.”
He was still in disbelief. “There were two lines before this. Why did they disappear in the second test? Plus, you mentioned that the test strips are not accurate. Is the stick test going to be accurate?”
“That’s why I said that Yu is likely not pregnant. She has a thirty-three day menstrual cycle. If nothing goes wrong, she should be having her period tonight or tomorrow. If her period is late, I will have her undergo some blood tests. Well, we could do the blood test today as well, but I thought that it was unnecessary at the moment. What do you think?”
As usual, Rong Ying always left a leeway in a negotiation; it was her style of doing things, which he was well aware of. Therefore, he had come to a decision regarding Mu Yu’s pregnancy. However, the thought of Mu Yu complaining of abdominal pain just now worried him a lot. “What’s the reason behind her pain?”
“It’s cold today, so it’s likely due to the weather. Or it’s possibly period cramps…”
Qin Jinhuan cut her off, “She hasn’t had her period yet, has she?”
Rong Ying chuckled. “Period cramps don’t happen exclusively during the period. Some women would feel the bloating and cramps a day before. But I think Yu’s pain is neither due to cold nor period cramps.”
“What’s the reason then?” Qin Jinhuan was worried about Mu Yu’s health. Rong Ying suddenly wiped her smile off her face and put on a serious expression. “Huan, are you especially nervous now?”
“Nonsense! How could I not be?” When he noticed that she looked not worried at all, he was instantly reminded of the scene from last night where she clung onto him, crying and begging. His heart sank as his gaze turned icy, abandoning her on the spot and leaving the area.
“Hey! Huan!” At first, Rong Ying had wanted to keep his guessing but she sensed that something was wrong. She thus immediately dashed up to stop him and explained herself, “What I mean is that extreme mental tension will induce physical pain! Do you experience stuffiness in the chest, shallow breathing and dizziness?”
He stopped after hearing her final sentence because he indeed experienced chest pain and stuffiness when he first received the news that Mu Yu had fainted.
Rong Ying secretly sighed in relief and quickly added, “The symptoms vary across people because everyone reacts differently when facing an emergency. Stuffiness in the chest, dizziness and stomach pain are normal reactions! But Yu did not believe my words. That’s why I had my doctors bring her in for a checkup. It’s nothing serious. I just wanted to reassure her.”
At that point, she bit her lip and looked aggrieved. “Huan, were you questioning my professionalism just now?”
“No…”
“I’ve never denied my feelings for you and I have not…” Feeling a lump in her throat, she stopped talking and lifted her chin a little to force back her tears. Then, she continued with a hoarse voice, “I’m not afraid to let you know that I’m envious of Yu. I’ve dreamed of turning into her and getting together with you a few times…”
“Rong Ying!”
“Huan, let me finish!” Her eyes reddened out of anxiety. After composing herself, she said between sobs, “I’ve had feelings for you since a long time ago. All these years, have you ever seen me doing anything out of spite and envy? Not only that, Yu is kind and she has full trust in me. Even if I’m envious of her, I have never thought of harming her. Your distrust in my professionalism and my character makes me really upset. I…”
She lost control of her tears and they streamed down her cheeks. When a stranger walked past, she put on a nonchalant face and stepped to the side while secretly wiping away her tears. However, Qin Jinhuan did not approach her to provide comfort. After a slight pause in shock, he stood at a meter’s distance and uttered, “I’m sorry.”
A while later, Rong Ying finally composed herself and turned to look at him with eyes red from crying while shaking her head. “Huan, I’m not a petty person. I know the rights and wrongs very clearly. So, please do not question my character ever again.”
Qin Jinhuan sighed gently and looked at her with pity. “Ying, you have to let go and start over again. To be honest…”
Knowing he was going to bring up Wen Zeyu, she quickly cut him off. “I have been trying to let go of you. I just needed more time.”
She could accept the fact that he was not into her, but she refused to let anyone influence her feelings toward another man.
He nodded at her.
At that moment, her phone rang and she took the call. After a quick chat, she hung up and gestured an ‘okay’ at Qin Jinhuan. “The doctor told me that Yu is fine. She’s now resting at a temporary ward. Let’s visit her.”
“Wait, stand there!” Qin Jinhuan demanded with a grave expression.
