It was August in Nanjiang, and there was a typhoon.

Outside the house, there was a violent storm, causing huge waves on the sea. The rain beat on the banana trees, making rustling sounds.

Qiao Aiyun was lying on the toilet and still retching. Old Madam Yan stood behind her and reached out to pat her back. Her expression was distressed and excited. “Mother Huang, go get a glass of water.”

Mother Huang was not as quick as Song Fengwan. She had already poured a glass of water and passed it in.

After rinsing her mouth, Qiao Aiyun felt more comfortable.

“Aiyun, are you pregnant?” Old Madam Yan asked bluntly, unable to hide her excitement.

“I…” Qiao Aiyun’s head exploded. It wasn’t the first time she was pregnant. When she thought about the recent abnormalities of her body recently, she was dumbfounded. “I’ve been too tired recently. I think…”

Her period wasn’t accurate to begin with, and she had been busy with her wedding recently. So she didn’t take it seriously that she wasn’t feeling well and didn’t have an appetite.

She had a slight fever some time ago and thought it was caused by a cold. But fortunately, she didn’t take any medicine.

“When was your last period?” Old Madam Yan seemed unusually excited as she helped her out.

She had long been prepared for her son to be single for life. She already felt that it was a blessing from her ancestors for him to be able to get married. If she could have a grandson, it would definitely be best.

“The last time…” Qiao Aiyun’s mind had been full of the wedding. How could she have cared about this? Thinking back now, it seemed to be in June. “It shouldn’t be.”

Recently, she had been feeling very tired, so she hadn’t been with Yan Wangchuan much.

“Aiyo, you two aren’t young anymore. How can you be so vague about this kind of thing? Don’t you know if you two used small umbrellas when you did it?” Old Madam Yan was anxious.

Yan Wangchuan had always been the one taking contraceptive measures, so Qiao Aiyun really didn’t know.

“Wanwan, help your mother sit over there. I’ll call Wangchuan and ask him to come back immediately. We can’t go to the hospital today, so I’ll get him to buy some pregnancy test kits.” Old Madam Yan immediately called Yan Wangchuan.

When Song Fengwan held Qiao Aiyun, her hands were cold, and she was also tense and nervous.

“Mom, have some water.” Song Fengwan poured her a glass of warm water.

She was an only child, and she was usually the only one at home. If she had a younger sibling, it would probably be good, as long as he or she wasn’t like Yan Wangchuan.

But on second thought, everyone said that nephews resembled their uncles…

She gulped nervously.

If it was a he, he would definitely be a demon. Her uncle had touched a knife at the age of one and killed chickens at the age of three.

I hope I have a younger sister and not a younger brother.

The Yan Group…

Yan Wangchuan was having a meeting to discuss the company’s Qixi Festival activities. A group of people was discussing fervently, and Yan Wangchuan’s phone vibrated at an inappropriate time.

“Sorry, I have to answer a call.” Although he was the head of the company, he didn’t put on much airs.

Everyone knew that he was getting married in a few days. There were many things to do, so they immediately became silent.

“Hey—”

“Hurry back. Aiyun is pregnant.”

Qiao Aiyun was drinking water and almost vomited when she heard this. I’m suspected of being pregnant. How did it become pregnant when she said it?!

Yan Wangchuan was stunned for a few seconds before his face turned cold. The company’s senior executives were so frightened that they felt as though they were treading on thin ice. They were flustered and trembling, thinking that something had happened to the company.

“… Did you hear what I said? There’s a typhoon outside right now, so it’s not convenient to send her to the hospital. Hurry back and buy a few pregnancy test kits at a pharmacy on the way back.”

“Okay.” Yan Wangchuan hung up stiffly. “The meeting is suspended.”

With that, he turned around and walked out.

His assistant hurriedly chased after him. He asked him not to say anything.

A certain someone walked straight to the elevator. Halfway there, he realized that he didn’t take his car key and walked back.

When he got to the garage, he realized that he had taken the wrong key and walked back again.

This happened three or four times.

The assistant was dumbfounded.

It was the first time he saw Yan Wangchuan so distraught. He was worried about him going back alone, so he naturally followed him.

But Yan Wangchuan’s footsteps were swift. He quickly got into his car, stepped on the accelerator, and drove away. The assistant didn’t even touch the door handle.

“President Yan, there’s a typhoon outside. Please be careful!”

There were frequent typhoons in Nanjiang, so water didn’t accumulate on the road. It was a violent storm, so there were few pedestrians or cars on the road. The speed of the windshield wipers wasn’t as fast as the rain, so the visibility of the windshield was extremely low. Halfway through the drive, Yan Wangchuan encountered a large tree that had fallen in front. After clearing the roadblock, he simply parked the car by the roadside and went on foot.

When he passed by a pharmacy to buy pregnancy test kits, the salesperson looked at him, stupefied.

At this moment, the wind and rain had battered him, so he looked extremely disheveled. The salesperson didn’t recognize him for a moment and only felt that he was too old to buy pregnancy test kits. Who are they for?

Yan Wangchuan had always been calm. But when he picked up the pregnancy test kits, he felt embarrassed for the first time in his life.

He swore that he would never come to this pharmacy again in his life.

When he returned home, it was already more than forty minutes later.

Seeing him appear at the door drenched, the family was shocked.

“Did you have a meeting in the water? Why are you so wet?” It was the first time Old Madam Yan saw him in such a sorry state. She hurriedly got someone to bring him a towel to wipe himself.

Yan Wangchuan took out the pregnancy test kits from his pocket and passed them to Qiao Aiyun.

His expression was solemn, as if he was handing over something precious.

“Wipe your face first.” Qiao Aiyun picked up a tissue to wipe his face. “Take off your coat and quickly go take a shower. I’ll get you some clothes.”

“You go first.” Yan Wangchuan’s attitude was firm.

At this moment, everyone’s eyes fell on Qiao Aiyun, making her feel extremely embarrassed.

“If there’s one line, you’re not pregnant. If there’s two, you are.”

“How do you know?” It wasn’t the first time Qiao Aiyun was pregnant, so she naturally had experience with this. But Yan Wangchuan was different.

“I searched online.”

Qiao Aiyun held the plastic bag and entered the bathroom awkwardly.

She was also very nervous. Before entering, she even looked back.

“Good luck. Go quickly.” Old Madam Yan was extremely excited.

Qiao Aiyun smiled bitterly. This kind of thing isn’t something that happens just by cheering me on.

She turned around to enter the bathroom and closed the door. She looked at the toilet helplessly with a complicated expression.

“Sir, please wipe yourself.” Mother Huang handed Yan Wangchuan a large towel. He held the towel and stood at the entrance of the bathroom like a door god.

“Yan Wangchuan, walk farther away.” The door of the Yan family’s bathroom was made of frosted glass, so she could vaguely see the figure outside. With this height, this person was most likely Yan Wangchuan.

Qiao Aiyun was already nervous. With him standing there, she couldn’t even pee.

Yan Wangchuan frowned and took half a step back.

“Go farther.”

Song Fengwan watched as Yan Wangchuan took small steps back and lowered her head to suppress her laughter.

Qiao Aiyun was in there for more than twenty minutes, and the people outside felt as if they were sitting on pins and needles. It wasn’t good to rush her, so they were tense and anxious.

…

Qiao Aiyun sat on the toilet and looked at the two lines of the pregnancy test kit with a complicated expression. It still came in the end.

After she went out, she saw Yan Wangchuan standing guard at the door. The water dripping from his body had formed a puddle at his feet.

Their eyes met.

Yan Wangchuan’s heart was beating extremely fast. It was as if fate was gripping his throat tightly, and he was awaiting her judgment.

“A-a-a-re…” His throat was dry.

Song Fengwan laughed out loud. Why is he so nervous that he stutters?

“I’ve tested three. I should be pregnant.” Qiao Aiyun’s expression was calm.

Yan Wangchuan’s breathing deepened. He strode over and wanted to hug her, but Old Madam Yan lifted her cane to block him. “You’re covered in water. Do you want to make her catch a cold?”

“I didn’t…”

“Hurry up and change.” Qiao Aiyun smiled at him.

“Okay.” Perhaps Yan Wangchuan was too nervous, but when he walked, he was as stiff as a robot.

***

The next day, after the rain, the sky was clear. The family accompanied Qiao Aiyun to the hospital for a check-up. It was confirmed that she was more than a month pregnant, and Yan Wangchuan had also managed to catch a cold.

Old Madam Yan completely isolated him and forbade him from touching Qiao Aiyun.

This made Yan Wangchuan feel very aggrieved. With this child, why did I become hated by everyone?

It wasn’t easy for the Yan family to have such a child, and Qiao Aiyun was an older woman. Old Madam Yan was very careful. Everyone said that the first three months were very important since the fetus was unstable. Other than informing the Qiao family, no one else said anything. They wanted to wait three months before announcing the news.

Song Fengwan had originally planned to wait for Fu Chen to come and attend the wedding. At that time, Qiao Aiyun would be in a good mood, so she would have mentioned her relationship to her and given her a heads-up.

But now that Qiao Aiyun was pregnant, Yan Wangchuan told her clearly, “Don’t agitate your mother at this time. She needs to nurse her fetus calmly.”

Therefore, she could only push the matter between her and Fu Chen back and make further plans.

Little did she know that because of this matter, Fu Chen would be punished by Old Master Fu.
