After getting married, Song Luokui's life didn't change much from before, except for living in a different place. Every morning, a driver would pick her up and drop her off at work, and also take her to school when she had classes.
At school, Song Luokui sometimes substituted for her teacher to give lectures. Whenever she opened the floor for questions, students would always ask her personal questions, especially after learning she was married.
"Senior, why did you get married so early?"
"Senior, doesn't your husband come to pick you up?"
"Senior, is your husband handsome?"
Song Luokui: ...
"Please don't ask questions unrelated to the class," Song Luokui would always respond.
However, one time when Chi Yu came to pick her up, everyone saw him. After that, no one asked these questions anymore.
One day, halfway through class, there was suddenly thunder and lightning with heavy rain. The sound of the downpour made everyone feel a bit gloomy. Some were worried about getting soaked if the rain was still heavy when class ended.
Song Luokui wasn't worried, since she had a driver to pick her up. But unexpectedly, just as she reached the entrance of the Faculty of Liberal Arts, Chi Yu got out of the car. He walked up to her with a black umbrella: "Do you have anything else to do? Ready to go home?"
Song Luokui stepped under his umbrella. "Why did you come?"
Chi Yu: "It's raining heavily, so I came to pick you up."
They chatted as they slowly walked to the car. The driver opened the door for them to get in before taking the driver's seat and driving away. Many students had gathered there, so a lot of them witnessed this scene.
Many felt it was like a scene from a romantic drama - a handsome man and a beautiful woman walking towards a luxury car in the rain, then slowly driving away.
"Wow! So that's our senior's husband?"
"That guy looks so familiar... Ah! I know, he's on the school's donation wall and official website. He's Chi Yu, a senior who graduated several years before us!"
"So that's Senior Chi Yu? He's our senior's husband? A handsome man and a beautiful woman, they're such a perfect couple."
In a dimly lit room, Song Luokui was covered in sweat. She heard the bedside drawer open and close. Chi Yu held her tightly, "We're out. I'll go buy some."
Song Luosheng first knocked on the door, but there was no sound from inside. He pushed the door open and called out, "Kuikui?" The maid had said she was back.
Song Luosheng walked in and immediately saw the pharmacy bag on the table. Thinking Song Luokui might be sick, he picked up the box from the bag and was stunned...
At this moment, Song Luokui was a bit dazed in the bathroom, to the point where she ignored the commotion outside. She stared at the two lines on the test, her heart racing.
She looked up information on her phone. Some people said that even with two lines, it wasn't necessarily pregnancy, and it was better to go to the hospital for a check-up.
Song Luokui patted her chest and took a deep breath. "Stay calm, it's not certain. It's not certain."
Although she said this, Song Luokui was still a bit panicked and at a loss. She had already started thinking about what to do if she really was pregnant. Could she really take good care of a child right now?
Song Luokui bit her finger and walked out of the bathroom, planning to go to the hospital first. However, as soon as she opened the door, she saw Song Luosheng holding the pregnancy test box.
"Brother..." Song Luokui was stunned. She hadn't expected Song Luosheng to be there.
Song Luosheng looked at her, then at the pregnancy test in her hand. He strode over and saw the two lines on the test Song Luokui was holding. He gasped, his eyes widening, "Kuikui, are you pregnant?"
Song Luokui: "I... I don't know. Brother, I'm scared." A frightened expression appeared on Song Luokui's face.
Song Luosheng quickly hugged her. "Don't be afraid. I'm here. Let's go to the hospital right away." He wanted to pull Song Luokui to run quickly, but then remembering she might be pregnant, he stopped. "Kuikui, should I carry you out? No, no, I'm afraid I might fall. Should I support you? Or should I have someone bring a wheelchair?"
Song Luokui: "...That won't be necessary. I'm not that fragile." She walked out.
The two of them headed to the hospital. Once in the car, Song Luosheng began reassuring Song Luokui not to be afraid, while simultaneously searching online for information about what to do when pregnant. Then, Song Luosheng called Chi Yu. As soon as the call connected, Song Luosheng rapidfire typed, "Where are you? Where are you now? When are you coming back? Come back quickly! Something's happened to Kuikui! Hurry back!"
Chi Yu immediately panicked on the other end, "What's wrong with Kuikui?"
Just then, they arrived at the hospital. Song Luosheng got out of the car, "Come quickly, we're at Jing City First Hospital!" Then he hung up.
Chi Yu swiftly got into a car, "Head back, to Jing City First Hospital. And make it fast."
"Yes, sir."
Today was supposed to be Grandpa Song's birthday celebration. Chi Yu had originally planned to stay at home, but some business matters came up in the neighboring city, so he went to deal with them first, intending to rush back later for the party.
Chi Yu was terribly afraid. He clenched his fists tightly, praying that nothing had happened to Song Luokui.
