Chapter 97: How Did You Know I’m Going to Be a Dad?

“You two are just too much!”

Captain Wang, was furious. He snatched his son, Wang Hu, back from Gu Zhenhua, who was pale with fright.

Back in his father’s arms, Wang Hu finally pouted and cried, his voice choked with tears. He hadn’t dared to make a sound in Gu Zhenhua’s arms. He was too scared!

“Okay, forget about Xiao Lin, but why are you picking on a child, Gu Zhenhua?”

Gu Zhenhua scoffed, “What are you talking about? Am I that kind of person?”

“You are it!” Captain Wang spat.

“You’re such a jerk, I’m not going to argue with you,” Gu Zhenhua snorted and explained generously, “Your son Wang Hu disgusted my wife. That’s why I wanted to take him outside, to avoid affecting my wife.”

“Disgusted? You say my Huzi is disgusting?” The battalion commander was shocked.

“He was wiping his snot all over my wife, how could that not be disgusting?” Gu Zhenhua said with disdain, “You didn’t see her, she was about to vomit?”

Captain Wang was furious. He grumbled and muttered, “You’re so high and mighty, you’re so great. You didn’t grow up like this, did you? What’s wrong with having a runny nose? You don’t have one?”

“I did, but my wife didn’t.” Gu Zhenhua said confidently, “My wife is gentle and refined, unlike your little rascal.”

“Xiao Lin beat my Huzi’s butt like that, and I haven’t even gotten to the bottom of it with you, yet you’re criticizing my child.”

Captain Wang was not happy. He stood there arguing with Gu Zhenhua.

He had been put in his place by Lin Xiangnan many times, and this time he had to get his revenge.

“My Xiao Nan is so gentle, how hard could she have hit him?”

Gu Zhenhua didn’t believe him. He went straight to pull down Wang Hu’s pants to check the wound.

“It’s just a little red, right? It’s not even broken. He’ll be fine after eating an egg tomorrow.”

Wang Hu felt a chill down his backside. He looked down and realized his pants had been pulled down.

He could take his pants off in front of his family, but having Gu Zhenhua pull them down made him blush with shame.

His butt was already swollen from the beating, which was humiliating enough. Gu Zhenhua was now inflicting secondary damage.

Wang Hu pouted, but he dared not say anything to Gu Zhenhua. He tugged at his pants with a look of grievance.

But Gu Zhenhua wouldn’t let go. He pointed at his butt and said to the battalion commander, “See for yourself, it’s not even broken.”

Gu Zhenhua wouldn’t let go until the battalion commander finished looking. Then he helped him pull his pants up.

Wang Hu was such a small child, in Gu Zhenhua’s hands he was like a toy. Gu Zhenhua could easily handle him.

“Be gentle with him, Huzi’s butt hurts.”

Wang Hu didn’t dare to speak, but the battalion commander felt sorry for his son and spoke up for him.

Lin Xiangnan was inside, too lazy to listen to their bickering. She shouted, “My stomach still hurts, Zhenhua, send Wang Hu home and take me to the hospital.”

She was afraid that seeing Wang Hu outside would make her feel even worse.

Gu Zhenhua was about to reason with the battalion commander, but when he heard Lin Xiangnan’s words, his expression immediately became tense. He scolded the battalion commander, “You don’t even discipline your filthy child. He’s disgusted my wife, and you still dare to argue with me?”

After finishing with the battalion commander, Gu Zhenhua threatened Wang Hu, “If you do this again, I’ll stuff your snot in your mouth.”

Wang Hu quickly covered his mouth with his hand.

Eating snot was indeed a bit disgusting.

Gu Zhenhua didn’t care about the battalion commander’s attitude. He directly pushed the father and son back to their own home and then quickly turned back to find Lin Xiangnan and take her to the hospital.

“Should I carry you?” Gu Zhenhua was a bit worried.

“No. I can walk.”

Lin Xiangnan felt that she shouldn’t have any major problems.

When she first crossed over, she had taken a month’s worth of health-enhancing pills, and her body was as strong as an ox. Besides, the Black Impermanence had assured her that she would live a long and healthy life in this life, and she would even be reborn into a good family in the next life.

She understood all the logic, but she was still scared.

She had developed a habit in her previous life of having a full body checkup every year. If she felt any discomfort or anything strange, she would go to the hospital for a check-up that day, never staying overnight.

Now, even though she felt fine, she wanted to hear the doctor tell her personally, which would give her a sense of security.

“There’s nothing wrong. You’re pregnant, two months along. Congratulations to you both.” The doctor’s smile became gentle and kind.

Hearing the first half of the sentence, Lin Xiangnan nodded in relief. Hearing the second half, she gasped in disbelief, “I’m pregnant? Did I hear that right?”

When she was getting it on, she thought of herself as an adult, and that it was okay to get it on.

But when she heard about pregnancy, she was stunned.

She was still young, how could she be pregnant?

“You heard right, Xiao Nan, you’re pregnant.” Gu Zhenhua was about to go crazy with joy.

He wanted to hug Lin Xiangnan, but he was afraid of pressing on the child. He changed his hand position a few times, and finally just princess-carried her, preparing to carry her home like that.

This time, Lin Xiangnan reacted. She quickly pushed Gu Zhenhua’s arm, “Quickly put me down.”

Gu Zhenhua said seriously, “Aren’t you feeling uncomfortable? I’ll carry you back.”

Carry her back all the way like a princess? She wasn’t an actor, life wasn’t a movie.

“Quickly put me down, I still need to ask the doctor about precautions.”

Gu Zhenhua instantly came to his senses. He almost forgot about that.

He gently put Lin Xiangnan down, then borrowed paper and pen from the doctor and started taking notes seriously.

Because he asked detailed questions, the doctor also spoke more. In the end, he filled a whole page.

Back home, Gu Zhenhua washed up and didn’t go to bed. Instead, he sat at his desk and started memorizing the precautions.

While memorizing, he also interacted with Lin Xiangnan.

“Wife, you need to eat small meals frequently. If you’re hungry, just eat, no need to wait for me.”

“Got it.”

“You should avoid bending over or standing for long periods. If something falls to the ground, if it’s not important, you don’t need to pick it up, wait for me to come home.”

Lin Xiangnan was nestled in bed, helplessly replying, “I know. Why don’t we just go to sleep, we can look at it tomorrow?”

“If you’re sleepy, you can sleep first. I’ll go to the next room and memorize.”

“I’m not sleepy. Wait until you’re done memorizing, then we’ll sleep together.”

Feeling that Lin Xiangnan might not want to talk, Gu Zhenhua didn’t say anything. He started to memorize silently, and at the same time, he copied another copy, planning to take it to the office tomorrow and look at it when he had free time.

The more he looked, the more he felt that the battalion commander wasn’t a good man.

Thinking that everyone in the family had pregnant women, Gu Zhenhua copied another copy. The next day, he sent the copied list to the Battalion Commander Wang

“I think you need to analyze every word on this list.”

The battalion commander scoffed, “Are you crazy?”

“Oh! How did you know I’m going to be a dad?”
