After Mu Anhan got out of the car, she leaned against a big tree and started throwing up.
Once she was done, Gu Xiaozhan handed her some warm water and used a tissue to wipe her mouth.
"Hubby, you shouldn’t be here. I look terrible!" she cried.
Gu Xiaozhan pulled her into his arms, "Silly, you’re my wife. What haven’t I seen before? Don’t say such things, let’s go to the hospital."
He lifted her back into the car and took her to the hospital.
After examining her, the doctor cautiously told Gu Xiaozhan, "Mr. Gu, your wife is not pregnant."
"Did you check thoroughly?" Gu Xiaozhan’s aura in the ER was almost murderous.
The female doctor, around her forties, also got anxious, "I am professional. The Madam just has a bad stomach; she’s really not pregnant. The test results show it’s just gastroenteritis."
Gu Xiaozhan wasn’t sure whether to be happy or upset. It wasn’t that he was desperate for a second child, but the thought that she got sick from greedy eating gave him a headache.
He called Tang Haolang, "Get to the hospital immediately!"
In the middle of a cold winter’s night, Tang Haolang rushed over, feeling quite pitiful. Not only did he have no one to keep his bed warm, he had to leave right after he finally got it warm himself.
But who would dare disobey Mr. Gu’s orders?
Tang Haolang saw Gu Xiaozhan’s tense face and quickly looked at the lab results, "Mr. Gu, the ultrasound shows nothing in the womb, and the urine test also indicates no pregnancy. It’s indeed gastroenteritis caused by cold beer and spicy barbecue."
"If you’ve made a mistake, you’ll regret it!" Gu Xiaozhan glared at him furiously.
Tang Haolang felt wrongly accused. Clearly, it was the wife who couldn’t control her cravings and ate carelessly in the middle of winter, so why was Mr. Gu taking it out on him?
Gu Xiaozhan strode into the ward, and Tang Haolang didn’t dare leave, hastily following him in.
Mu Anhan was excitedly playing on her phone. Seeing him come in, she happily asked, "Hubby, how many kids am I pregnant with this time?"
Tang Haolang: "..." Sometimes he thought the wife was quite silly!
Gu Xiaozhan maintained a cold, handsome face, "You’re not pregnant with any."
"How can that be?" Mu Anhan immediately realized what was happening. She figured her stomach was acting up and quickly put on a pitiful expression, "Oh no, I feel so terrible..."
Tang Haolang: [...] He should probably recommend her for an Oscar.
The transition between excitement and misery was completely seamless!
"I might have eaten something bad..." Mu Anhan thought admitting her mistake could mitigate the consequences. "Hubby, you’ve worked so hard, staying late and still taking me to the hospital..."
Tang Haolang wanted to laugh but didn’t dare; he had no desire to become collateral damage.
Gu Xiaozhan didn’t want to lecture Mu Anhan in front of anyone else. He glanced at Tang Haolang, "Go check with the doctor."
"Yes!" Tang Haolang immediately dashed away.
Since it was a VIP ward, only Mu Anhan was staying there.
Facing the Great Demon King alone made her quite nervous.
"Hubby..." Mu Anhan quickly started acting, "I feel so bad... Can you hold me?"
At this time, only a tearful act paired with some sweet talk would do the trick.
Gu Xiaozhan approached her, seeing her pale face and cold sweat; all his anger turned into heartache.
Keeping a stern face, he nonetheless warmly wrapped his large arms around her.
