Unpredictable Marriage.

"Babe is it possible for a man to rape his wife." Mu Boqin asked as he followed behind.

"Try me tonight if you want to know the answer to your question." Liu Dongmei said as she continued in her steps.

Mu Boqin stood in shock for a few seconds before chasing after her.

"Mother, do you think I should inform Ju Ju of the good news now?." Madam Liu asked the Old Lady in an excited voice.

She was somehow scared that the pregnancy would turn out to be false. But if not that she knew the Old Lady's origins, she would never have believed her in the first place.

"Let's wait for Lihua to wake up and for the doctor to check up on her to confirm how far long she's gone." The Old Lady suggested.

Liu Longwei's bedroom

Liu Longwei was sitting beside Chen Lihua who was still asleep. He clasped her hand and kept smiling. He was truly happy that he would soon become a father.

Since he has called a doctor over, his mind was a bit relaxed. But he just couldn't wait to share the good news with his wife.

Few hours later, Liu Longwei felt some movements from his side, so he opened his eyes sharply to check on his wife. He watched his wife in a smile as she slowly woke up.

Chen Lihua struggled to open her eyes and when she did so, she felt as if she was in a foreign place, so she looked around her. She turned to her right to see a face peering at her from a close range.

"Where am I ?." She asked as she recognized her husband's face, while trying to sit up on the bed despite the confusion.

Liu Longwei immediately assisted her to sit up while saying to her, "Take it easy. You are in our bedroom, you fainted some hours ago, so I brought you here to take a rest."

"I fainted? That explains why I can only recall being at the tent and celebrating New Year, but couldn't remember any other thing that happened after that." Chen Lihua said and sighed thereafter.

"How long have I been out?." She inquired as she rested her back on the pillow Liu Longwei put behind her.

"Let's say five hours." Liu Longwei replied.

"What?! I've been out for that long?! I think my body was stressed out, that should be the only proper explanation for this." Chen Lihua said as she closed and opened her eyes.

She was surprised to here that she has been passed out for so long. That has never happened to her before. She has no memory of fainting before, maybe she has fainted before but can't remeber because it has been far too long since the incident took place.

"Yes, you are right. You and the baby have been stressed out for a long time, that's why you fainted." Liu Longwei said in agreement, revealing the good news to her at the same time.

"Did I hear you say, me and the baby? I guess I'm not the only one that passed out too." Chen Lihua scoffed.

"Sweetheart, I am serious here. You are pregnant, and we are going to be parents to a little bun soon." Liu Longwei said while staring at her with a serious look, to show that he wasn't messing with her.

"Darling look, I am not pregnant. I know I have been stressed because of certain incidents that happened before, and then I have been busy at the hospital and with the celebrations which took a toll on me. All these things have affected me, and caused me to become weak. But trust me, I am not pregnant." Chen Lihua smiled at the end of her statement, not believing him at all. 

"Baby listen to me. When you fainted few hours ago during the jubilation, Grandma diagnosed you. She said you were pregnant, and almost two months gone." Liu Longwei revealed.

"Grandma said I'm pregnant after diagnosing me? How in the world is that even possible?. Can she really tell who is pregnant?." Chen Lihua asked in serious doubt.

"I will not blame you for the doubts. But here is the reality, Grandma came from a family of Chinese traditional doctors. Her ancestors were Royal physicians, and this is the reason she is respected in the society. Although she has stopped practicing the Chinese medicine, she is still good at the inherit techniques." Liu Longwei explained.

"Grandmother came from the blood line of Royal physicians?." Chen Lihua asked in surprise, totally forgetting the topic of her being pregnant.

"Yes, so her diagnosis can't be wrong." Liu Longwei added.

"But I don't feel pregnant. No, I can't be pregnant, I am not even ready to become a mother." Chen Lihua said worriedly as she stood up from the bed immediately.

She suddenly felt dizzy, so she held her head with her hands to steady her sight. Liu Longwei immediately pulled her to the bed gently.

"Sweetheart you need to be careful. Please sit on the bed and don't get up, I will go and bring the doctor up here." Liu Longwei said as he placed her legs on the bed and covered them with the warm blanket.

"The doctor is here? I will go down to see her." Chen Lihua said as she made a move to get up from the bed, but Liu Longwei stopped her.

"No need, the doctor will come up here to see you. I don't want the whole family surrounding you or making a fuss if you go downstairs. But if you are up here, I can control the people that will try to enter our bedroom." Liu Longwei gave his reasons.

"Alright get the doctor, I will be waiting here." Chen Lihua replied, in a conflicted tone.

She was thinking of the possibility of being pregnant when she wasn't ready at all.

Liu Longwei could tell that she wasn't happy or excited with the news, but he didn't say anything. He made sure she was sitting comfortably on the bed before leaving the bedroom.
