Chapter 77: Late at Night in the Ward
“Grandma…”Michael was dejected, his voice was hoarse and obscure. “I’ve let her down… She shouldn’t have to bear all of this alone.” He didn’t dare to look his grandma in the eye, and couldn’t help but feel resentment in his heart. However, he couldn’t come to hate his own grandma, as he knew his family could have definitely done worse.
He held Tang Yu’s hand tightly, determined to treat her well for the rest of his life.
“Michael, it’s impossible for her to marry you. You can’t let your emotions get the best of you. Break up with her as soon as possible.”
“No, absolutely not. I’m willing to sacrifice everything just to live with her for the rest of my life. I’ll love her, protect her, and take care of her. Even if we don’t have a child in this life, I won’t give up on her.”
Grandma sighed softly. “You’re so infatuated. You’re just like your grandfather.” Her heavy tone had turned light as she revealed a gentle, kind smile.
“Michael, congratulations on passing my test. I have come to understand that you’re sincere about her. I didn’t poison her, and the child in her belly is safe and sound. I only put a little powder in it.”
Michael turned his head to look at her. “Is that really true? Then why is she so weak?”
“It’s because she’s too nervous and scared, but I would say she is already doing very well…” His grandma said earnestly. “To be your woman, she must have extraordinary courage. I’m very satisfied with her.”
After a night of ups and downs, Michael finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“Let her rest quietly.”
In the middle of the night, a tall doctor sneakily peeked his head into Tang Yu’s ward. A few minutes later, he walked into the stairwell as he impatiently took out his phone to make a call.
“Be at Ox-head Mountain in half an hour.”
When he stepped out, he saw his younger brother coming out of the ward with an unhappy face. The corners of his mouth curled up into a devilish smile.
He straightened the collar of his white coat, held his head high, and puffed out his chest. He pretended to pick up a notebook by the door as he walked to Tang Yu’s bedside, watching her sleep soundly.
Her snow-white skin, long eyelashes, and sparkling beads of sweat.
No matter how he looked at it, this beautiful woman was his wife.
“When did you change your name to Tang Ye? Baby, it’s only been a while, and you want to marry Michael with my child? Dream on.” Miles caressed her delicate little face, not wanting to let go. “I’m very happy that you came to find me.”
He carefully wiped her sweat and gently kissed her lips.
“My wife, you’ve worked hard. I really want to hug and kiss you, but I still can’t be with you yet. Give me a little more time, and I’ll return to your side. I’ll always be by your side, protecting you…”
He stayed by Tang Yu’s side the whole time, and unknowingly fell asleep.
It was four o’clock in the morning when Tang Yu suddenly woke up and saw the doctor lying beside her bed, asleep.
She gently touched the doctor’s arm, causing him to immediately wake up.
He actually slept with a mask on… Was it because she was really that sick?
Tang Yu’s heart was heavy, her entire body deprived of energy . A deep dread filled her heart.
“My child… is my child still there?” Tang Yu asked with a trembling voice.
The doctor looked into her eyes seriously, but his light brown eyes were filled with sincerity. “The child is doing well. There’s no problem at all. Don’t worry, you’re just too tired.”
Tang Yu let out a long sigh of relief as she revealed a pale smile.
Seeing her smile, Miles’ heart melted. He said gently, “You’re still in the early stages of pregnancy. You have to rest more and maintain a good mood. You can’t be aggravated, understand?”
“I don’t want to, either.” Tang Yu didn’t know how to react.
The doctor stood up and continued his lecture, “After our examination, your physique is not doing too well. The adhesion of the embryo to the uterus has been lowered. You can’t be doing strenuous exercise regularly… especially in bed.”
Tang Yu looked at him in confusion.
“What I mean to say is that you can’t have sex throughout your pregnancy. Do you understand?”
Tang Yu nodde, somewhat perplexed.
“Promise me.”
“I promise you…” Tang Yu felt that this doctor was starting to become weird. He felt familiar… It was similar to when her husband had worn that white coat.
“Very well, I don’t want to see you in this ward a second time.”
“Could you come here for a moment?”
Miles frowned slightly. My little wife, how could you let a strange man get so close to you so easily!
He moved a little closer before Tang Yu suddenly attempted to grab his mask.
Miles was swift enough to hold on to it, preventing it from being snatched.
Then, she reached for his collar.
