Chapter 1041 - 38: Twins

Chapter 1041: Chapter 38: Twins

Gu’s wife accompanied Gu Xiaoning to the hospital, because it’s twins, the whole family was very nervous.

Gu Xiaoning was changing inside, while Gu’s wife and Le Zhengpeng had anxious-looking faces.

"How’s it going? Doctor, how’s it going?" Le Zhengpeng was so tense that even his neck stiffened.

"Hmm..."

The doctor pondered for a moment, "The situation is actually still okay, but..."

"But what?" This time, it was Gu’s wife. "Young Madam’s body is too weak, she’s already anemic... It’s twins, so, as it gets later, the body will get heavier."

The doctor spoke candidly, "Mr. Le Zheng, I suggest you start hiring a caretaker for Young Madam right now, I can do regular home visits for checkups. Additionally, a nutritionist and a chef need to be arranged."

For an average family, a doctor wouldn’t say such things.

But this doctor was acquainted with the Lezheng Family, naturally aware of their family circumstances, and clearly understood their importance on Gu Xiaoning’s pregnancy.

"Oh... okay!" Le Zhengpeng nodded on the spot, "No problem, no problem."

However, Le Zhengpeng looked towards Gu’s wife.

"Mother-in-law, you see... it would be best for Ningning to move back home as soon as possible."

Gu’s wife furrowed her brows slightly and could only nod, "Okay... I’ll go check on Ningning."

She turned around and went in

.

Le Zhengpeng lowered his voice, speaking mysteriously, "Hey... is it a boy or a girl? Or one of each?"

Earlier, with Gu’s wife around, he really didn’t dare ask, fearing he would get scolded.

"Haha." The doctor laughed, "Sir, you’re really too impatient... It’s still too early now, we can’t tell yet, but once we can check, I’ll make sure to do the examination for Young Madam first thing, rest assured!"

"Ah, okay, okay."

Le Zhengpeng nodded, but he was still anxious inside.

The family already had one Jiujiu, and if both of these are boys, that would be just perfect! It’s not that he’s biased towards having boys over girls, he loves Jiujiu just the same; he eagerly wants grandsons just because the Lezheng Family truly has sparse offspring.

The curtain was lifted, and Gu’s wife came out with Gu Xiaoning.

In the end, she still overheard bits and pieces.

Gu’s wife immediately became unhappy, "You old man, always thinking about grandsons! What’s wrong with granddaughters? Grandkids, grandkids, does your family have a throne waiting for inheritance?"

"Tsk!"

Le Zhengpeng frowned and clicked his tongue, "Mother-in-law, our Lezheng Family actually has a throne to inherit! Whether in politics or business, if there are two grandsons, that would be perfect, one for each side..."

"..."

Gu’s wife paused, becoming speechless, yet she was still upset.

"Alright! I told you, you’re always fixated on Ningning’s belly..."

"Mom."

Gu Xiaoning worried they would start arguing again, "Don’t be like this."

Le Zhengpeng stopped, smiling gleefully at Gu Xiaoning, "Ningning, don’t stress, your father likes granddaughters too."

"..." Gu Xiaoning pursed her lips into a smile, "Mm, I know, I’m not stressed."

Saying she’s not stressed is a lie, Gu Xiaoning was well aware that it’s best for this pregnancy to be boys so that the Lezheng Family can be at ease.

After finishing the examination, they stepped outside, and it was quite noisy.

It seemed something had happened?

Police cars were parked at the entrance, and looking at the uniform, there were even international police present.

Gu Xiaoning held her mother’s arm, "Mom, what is... what’s happening here?"

"Who knows." Gu’s wife hurriedly protected her daughter, "Be careful, there’s a crowd... don’t bump into anyone."

"Make way, make way..."

Up front, police came over, clearing a path.

Gu Xiaoning saw Cui Ruoya being escorted out by police, and her hands... were cuffed!

"Ah..." Gu Xiaoning was shocked, how could this be?

Suddenly, she remembered.

She was caught in an incident with Asheng in D City some time ago. The person who abducted her mentioned something about purchasing confidential information! Back then, Asheng suspected it might be Cui Ruoya... Could it actually be true?

In the crowd, Cui Ruoya also looked over at Gu Xiaoning.

Their eyes met, Cui Ruoya curled her lips into a smile.

That smile was chilling, full of hatred!

She lived! She actually lived well!

Yet, her own life was ruined! Ruined...

Right before her, Le Zhengpeng treasured Gu Xiaoning like a precious gem! How could she not hate?

"..." Gu Xiaoning was startled by her gaze, shivering slightly.

"What’s wrong? Cold?"

When Gu’s wife asked so, Le Zhengpeng quickly said, "Ningning is anemic, definitely more sensitive to cold than most people... Get in the car quickly! Let’s go home now, not to your apartment. There’s still a lot to prepare, let Xiao Zheng come home today too, for his sister... let’s have him adjust."

"Let’s go soon."

Gu’s wife pulled her daughter along and left.

Gu Xiaoning nodded, walking a few steps, but couldn’t help turning back.

"Hurry up!"

Behind her, Cui Ruoya was pushed firmly by the police and stumbled forward, nearly falling.

That scene made Gu Xiaoning feel conflicted.

"Sigh."

In the car, Le Zhengpeng sighed, "This Cui Doctor, truly played a good hand so poorly by herself..."

"Dad." Gu Xiaoning couldn’t resist asking, "Do you know what happened?"

"Sigh..." Le Zhengpeng lamented, "Did you see the international police? She and her father, Dr. Cui, are suspected of selling scientific research data for a high price."

Of course...

Gu Xiaoning’s lips pulled into a smirk, really... she couldn’t even summon sympathy for this Cui Doctor.

Fortunately, she’d returned.

If Asheng had spent his life with a cold-hearted woman like that, how unfortunate would he be?

"Drive... home."

"Yes."

——

In the cardiology ward, Granny Kang had just laid down.

She was hospitalized today; her tests had just been finished.

Pei Pei was continuously accompanying her; due to the tests, Granny hadn’t eaten anything in the morning.

"Granny, you can have breakfast now." Pei Pei smiled, setting up the table, and came to support Granny Kang.

"Okay, okay." Granny Kang chuckled.

Kang Sir pushed the door open and entered, "Granny."

"Ah, dear grandson." Thanks to Pei Pei, Granny was friendlier to her grandson these past few days.

Kang Sir walked over, "Peipei, your agent is waiting downstairs... I’ll take care of Granny, you go ahead and work."

"Mm." Pei Pei nodded, coaxing Granny, "Granny, I have to work, you rest well, and I’ll come to see you as soon as I finish."

"Alright. Work is important."

Pei Pei left the hospital room, found the car, and got inside.

She leaned back, rubbing her neck, "Where are we headed now?"

The car started moving but there was no response.

"Hmm?" Pei Pei felt odd, "Why is no one speaking? What’s the schedule for today? Is it the film set or the TV station now?"

Too strange, Pei Pei sat upright and looked towards the driver’s seat.

In front, there was only the driver, her agent and assistant were nowhere to be seen!

And this driver, wearing a baseball cap? Acting all secretive...

Staring at the back of his head, Pei Pei’s spine stiffened, blurting out, "Lu Yuxuan!"

The driver stepped on the accelerator, and the car raced forward.

Pei Pei grew anxious, slapping the back of the seat, "Lu Yuxuan, what are you doing? Stop the car right now! Where are you taking me?"
