When Zhuang Nainai finally put on her usual clothes and stood in front of everyone, Lin Xi’er was the first to kick up a fuss. “Nainai, why do you look no different? Are you sure you’re pregnant?”
Su Yanbin was more hilarious. With his eyes staring intently at Zhuang Nainai’s stomach, he said, “With your stomach looking so small, won’t my little nephew find it uncomfortably suffocating?”
As for Si Zhengting, he furrowed his brows before going out to look for the attending physician. It was only after he repeatedly confirmed with the physician that everything was okay that he returned.
Due to the issue with the design drafts, as well as her journey to Kentucky to look for her mother, Zhuang Nainai had lost five to six kilograms of weight. Lying on the hospital bed for the last two weeks had enabled her to gain the weight back, but she was still skinny.
With his eye on her, Si Zhengting began thinking of what to feed her.
Just as they were about to get the discharge proceedings done, Li Yufeng came running over.
She had been coming intermittently over the past few days, and even Lin Xi’er had seen her a few times. Unable to resist herself, she had said to Zhuang Nainai, “It’s a mother’s instinct, after all. Even though y’all don’t like each other, she’s probably still worried about you.”
Zhuang Nainai only had one response to that: “Ha ha.”
Spotting them, Li Yufeng came walking over. She kept her distance and was standing only a little closer to Zhuang Nainai. She said urgently, “Why aren’t you staying for a while longer? Are you sure that the child is fine? Why are you discharging yourself from the hospital? Isn’t it convenient to stay in the hospital?”
The anxious questions she asked were met with no reply.
Li Yufeng instantly felt a little awkward.
Walking out of the hospital and standing on the steps of the entrance, Su Yanbin and Si Zhengting began helping Zhuang Nainai to load her belongings into Si Zhengting’s car.
Si Zhengting then spun around, intending to hold Zhuang Nainai.
Just then, Zhuang Nainai felt someone carelessly push her!
Shocked, she stumbled toward the flight of stairs!
“Nainai!”
“Nainai!”
Several cries of alarm rang out at once, but Zhuang Nainai was still unable to stop her body from falling forward. Just as she felt herself heading toward the floor, she felt her body being pulled, and a loud thud followed. Someone had fallen onto the floor!
But Zhuang Nainai had been pulled by someone. Stumbling backward a few steps, she was finally caught by Si Zhengting.
Everything had happened in a flash.
Zhuang Nainai felt as if her heart was about to fly out of her throat. In utter shock, she reached down and held her stomach.
Si Zhengting anxiously asked her, “Is there anything wrong anywhere?”
Lin Xi’er had also run over by now. “Nainai, how are you?”
Su Yanbin was the noisiest. “Sister-in-law, are you okay?”
Zhuang Nainai took a few deep breaths and finally calmed down. But the mere thought of what had just happened made her fearful once more.
As her rationality returned, Zhuang Nainai suddenly realized something. If these three people had been by her side, then the person who had pulled her and had been her human s.h.i.+eld… was…?
At the thought of this, she turned around. Li Yufeng had fallen down and was now trying to get up.
The fall had been rather bad — her face had a few cuts, her arm had a large laceration, and even her stockings had ripped. She was bleeding.
