Throughout the New Year, Zhou Sheng went downstairs to Shen Youyou's community every day, but Shen Youyou never went down to see him.
Zhou Sheng didn't nag or rush, he just stood downstairs and looked at the lights above for a few times before leaving.
Sometimes, I will take some gifts and leave them at the door.
Shen Youyou will take it, but it will all be given to Xu Xiao.
For this reason, Zhou Sheng didn't say much, he just sent WeChat messages over and over again to ask.
"When will you see me?"
Finally, one day on March 6, Shen Youyou replied.
"See you at the Armed Police Hospital at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."
Zhou Sheng took his cell phone and looked at the message. Suddenly, he realized that a month and a half had really passed by like this.
He sneered coldly, laughing so hard that his heart ached.
"Shen Youyou, you are quite cruel."
But even with this thought, he still got up and shaved, and then asked Mo Yu to pick out a good-looking suit for him.
Early the next morning, Zhou Sheng got up early. When he rushed to the hospital, Shen Youyou and Xu Xiao had already arrived.
After not seeing each other for a month and a half, Shen Youyou has lost weight again. Even though she is now more than five months pregnant, she can hardly see any pregnancy belly even when she is wearing clothes.
The originally fair and rosy face now looks very pale, especially the dark circles under the eyes, which are as thick as if someone had punched them around the eyes.
Zhou Sheng's chest felt tight, and he quickly walked up, and then forcibly pulled Shen Youyou over.
"You do this to yourself?"
Shen Youyou's whole body was soft. For more than a month, she had been numbing herself with high-intensity work, so her body was already in a state of load.
"Let me go."
Shen Youyou twisted slightly, but she was so weak that she couldn't push Zhou Sheng away at all.
And Zhou Sheng didn't want to let her go. He just kept asking, "Why have you lost so much weight and why do you look so bad?"
Shen Youyou sneered coldly, with a bit of ridicule in his eyes.
"Does it have anything to do with you?"
"Why does it have nothing to do with me? What you are carrying in your belly is my child."
"You are not the only child like this."
As soon as Shen Youyou said this, Zhou Sheng was completely speechless.
He just looked at Shen Youyou quietly, and after a long time he said something in a calm voice.
"Let's get checked first."
After hearing this, Shen Youyou subconsciously got out of Zhou Sheng's arms.
Amniocentesis requires an appointment. Coincidentally, today's doctor happened to be the same doctor who performed the puncture on Shen Youyou last time.
She saw Shen Youyou a little surprised and asked quickly.
"You just had a piercing not long ago, why did you do it again?"
There was unconcealable embarrassment on Shen Youyou's face, but Xu Xiao hurriedly walked out.
"This time it's not her, it's me. She's here to accompany me."
"Oh, that's it."
After the doctor finished speaking, he immediately picked up the list on the table.
"Your name is Xu Xiao, right? OK, lie down."
Xu Xiao immediately looked nervous when he heard this.
"I'm a little afraid of needles. Wait a minute. I'll go to the toilet first."
Xu Xiao quickly walked out of the consulting room and ran towards the women's restroom. She entered the single room and locked the door. She made sure Shen Youyou didn't follow her outside and then picked up the phone.
"Madam, I'm already at the hospital."
"Okay, I understand, don't worry, everything is ready."
Xu Xiao was still a little worried.
"But when I first entered, it seemed that the doctor who performed the puncture on me and Shen Youyou knew each other."
"It doesn't count as acquaintance, but she was the one who performed Shen Youyou's puncture last time."
"Then...is it reliable?"
Yuan Chunxiang laughed.
"You idiot, would I be so obvious about my actions? Doctors and inspectors have nothing to do with us. The person I really arranged is the person who manages the test samples."
Xu Xiao suddenly realized it and praised Yuan Chunxiang repeatedly.
"Okay, go ahead and do it. I'm about to leave here. Remember to delay as much time as possible and stick to the original plan."
"Okay, ma'am."
Xu Xiao came out of the toilet and Shen Youyou was waiting at the door.
Seeing the person coming, Xu Xiao immediately looked nervous and scared again.
"Youyou, the needle I just saw next to you is the one that is going to be inserted into my stomach?"
Shen Youyou held Xu Xiao's hand. Although her heart was so depressed that she almost couldn't breathe, she still answered her patiently.
"Yes, but don't be afraid. The puncture is done at the same time as the B-ultrasound. The doctor will avoid the baby and the vital points."
"Did it hurt when you did it last time?"
"Fortunately, there will be a little soreness."
"Then please stay with me inside this time, okay?"
Xu Xiao grasped Shen Youyou's hand tighter.
But the sadness in Shen Youyou's heart also worsened.
Because of this matter, there must be a liar between two people.
Xu Xiao can prove himself with such confidence, which means that it is more likely that the liar is Zhou Sheng.
Shen Youyou nodded stiffly like a puppet, and then led by Xu Xiao, they entered the consulting room together.
Xu Xiao lay down and lifted up her clothes gently.
The slightly swollen belly was thoroughly disinfected with iodine. After all the procedures were completed, the doctor picked up the needle on the side.
"Youyou, I'm afraid!"
"fine."
Xu Xiao's body was trembling. Even though she was wearing socks, judging from the curling of her toes, every nerve in her body was tense.
Shen Youyou is also a woman and a mother. No matter how strong her heart is, it will be difficult for her to remain calm after seeing such a scene.
At that moment, she completely admitted her selfishness.
So she held Xu Xiao's hand tightly as if to make up for it, and then comforted her in her ears over and over again.
"It's okay, Xiaoxiao, you'll be fine in a while."
The doctor next to him was also comforting, and Xu Xiao's mood finally stabilized.
"Okay, we're drawing the amniotic fluid. Relax your body and don't tense your stomach."
"Okay, it worked."
The doctor pulled out the needle and put a wound bandage on Xu Xiao's belly.
She was lying on the hospital bed and was pushed out. Zhou Sheng did not go up to pick her up, but let Mo Yu go.
"Go and apply for an expedited procedure so that the results can come out faster."
Zhou Sheng frowned and looked at Shen Youyou with a tight expression on his face.
"Apart from that, there's nothing else you can say to me?"
Shen Youyou didn't answer, looking at him with dull and hollow eyes.
Zhou Sheng took a breath to suppress all the negative emotions that burst out of his chest, then looked at Shen Youyou and couldn't help but preach.
"I miss you very much during this time."
"Um."
"Youyou, come back and live with me. I'm not worried about you being alone. Look at what you've done to yourself in the past month."
"Did I make myself like this?"
Shen Youyou sneered and immediately rejected him.
"Go back and live? How? Are you going to force two women into one room?"
"Youyou, can you stop dragging Xu Xiao into this all the time?"
"I don't want to either, but she is standing in front of me pregnant with your child. Why don't you make me not want to!"
Shen Youyou roared like an explosion. Seeing this, Zhou Sheng's face, which was already frozen, became even more terrifying.
"Then let's wait for the report to come out."
After speaking, he took out his cell phone and called Mo Yu.
"Same as last time, I'll do it urgently."
"Okay, boss."
At this point, the matter seemed to have come to an end, but no one thought that the two of them would meet Yuan Chunxiang and Zhou Honghui here.
