[Hospital]- Looking at the image displayed on the screen, Su Rui felt exceptionally surprised.

Su Rui pointed at the screen and asked, “Is this the head?”

Upon hearing that, the doctor smiled and replied, “Yes, this is the head of the fetus.”

Then, he drew a circle in another area and said, “This is the body of the fetus.”

“So amazing.”

The last time she came for a checkup, ‘he’ was just a tiny bud. She didn’t expect to be able to see the shape of a baby so soon.

“Gu Yu Cheng, look, this is what your child looks like.” Su Rui shook Gu Yu Cheng’s hand and pointed at the image on the screen with her other hand.

“Very cute.” Gu Yu Cheng was also staring at the screen and said with a serious expression. The emotion in the eyes was apparent.

“Eh! Did he just move a bit? Or did the screen shake?”

“It moved!”

The doctor beside them listened to Su Rui and Gu Yu Cheng’s conversation, and then looked at the two of them and couldn’t help but smile.

Young couples who were having a baby for the first time would be filled with wonder at the condition of the fetus.

She witnessed this with many young couples.

The doctor was a little surprised that Gu Yu Cheng, the chairman of Gu Company, would be like this.

But, as she thought of it, he would be as such.

Apart from all the status and fame, weren’t those two just an ordinary couple?

And Gu Yu Cheng was just a new father who is about to welcome the arrival of his first child.

“At 12 and a half weeks, the fetus is able to move. You just can’t feel it yourself because it is still small. When it is a few weeks later, you’ll be able to feel it.” The doctor explained with a smile.

Although the doctor said so, Su Rui still felt that it was incredible.

After all the tests were done, the doctor took the results and went through them carefully.

“All the indicators are normal. The fetus is healthy and developing normally.” The doctor said to Su Rui and Gu Yu Cheng.

“The due date is around the 10th of October this year. Also…”

The doctor addressed some more precautions for the two of them.

“Is it okay to take her out for a trip during this period?” When the doctor finished speaking, Gu Yu Cheng noted all of them and then asked.

“Short trips are fine. But be careful not to go too far away and in crowded places. During the trip, be mindful of resting…” The doctor said.

“Okay, I understand.” Gu Yu Cheng responded. “Then…”

Seeing Gu Yu Cheng seemingly wanting to say something, the doctor raised his eyebrows and a look of understanding flashed across his eyes.

She did not care what Gu Yu Cheng wanted to say and simply added, “the pregnant woman and the fetus are now in a good state. In the middle of pregnancy, it is fine to have intercourse.”

“However, you must be careful not to interfere with the pregnant woman’s regular rest. Furthermore, the hygiene must be good. If there is any discomfort, you must immediately stop.”

The doctor spoke in great detail and with great equanimity.

It sounded as if she had said it many times before.

Su Rui’s face, on the other hand, flushed when she heard these words.

Even though her face was flushed, she still took note of the doctor’s precautions.

……

[Back home]- In the evening, looking at the woman who was still nestled on the sofa playing with her phone, Gu Yu Cheng very skillfully confiscated it from Su Rui’s hands.

“Are you sleepy?” Gu Yu Cheng asked.

“I’m not sleepy.” Su Rui widened her shimmering eyes and looked at Gu Yu Cheng.

“But it’s time for you to sleep.” Gu Yu Cheng said as he leaned down and kissed Su Rui’s lips.

“Okay.”

Su Rui did not refuse. Instead, she suddenly raised her arms and wrapped them around Gu Yu Cheng’s neck fluidly.

“Carry me to take a bath.” Su Rui whispered in Gu Yu Cheng’s ear.

Upon hearing that, Gu Yu Cheng’s entire body tensed up.

This was the first time Su Rui initiated in asking Gu Yu Cheng to carry her to take a bath.

There wouldn’t be any other meaning to this statement.

“Rui Rui…”

Gu Yu Cheng opened his mouth and called Su Rui’s name, with a hint of helplessness in his voice. More than anything else, it was a voice that has uncontrollable huskiness.

“Hurry up, or I’ll be really sleepy later.” Su Rui said.

She was not blind. She noticed how hard Gu Yu Cheng is enduring during this time.

She previously saw on the internet that one of the important reasons for a husband’s prenatal depression was that there was no more of that particular life. Su Rui also specifically noted down this point.

So, it is understandable.

“Let’s go,” Gu Yu Cheng said and carried Su Rui from the sofa with the same position they are currently in.

This is driving me insane.

……

The bath only lasted for 15 minutes, but Gu Yu Cheng felt that it was probably the most agonizing 15 minutes of his life.

After taking a bath and drying his hair, he placed Su Rui on the bed and leaned over.

But he was careful not to put pressure on Su Rui’s stomach.

Looking at the woman beneath him, Gu Yu Cheng’s gaze was ablaze with fire.

Noticing the hint of struggle in the bottom of Gu Yu Cheng’s eyes, Su Rui smiled gently and said, “The doctor said it’s alright.”

“What about you? Are you alright with it?”

“Yes.”

Now that she was four months pregnant, her abdomen hasn’t changed significantly, so she could.

By the time her abdomen started to show, she really didn’t have the confidence to do that thing with Gu Yu Cheng with a big belly.

So, Chairman Gu, there is no such shop after you passed this village[1].

Su Rui looked at Gu Yu Cheng and silently muttered this sentence to herself.

The next second, without waiting for Su Rui to say anything else, her lips were already sealed by Gu Yu Cheng.

“Yu Cheng?” Before the deep kiss was over, Su Rui couldn’t restrain herself from calling Gu Yu Cheng when she felt herself being carried by him.

“You would be on top. I’m afraid of putting pressure on you.”

“Tell me if you’re uncomfortable.”
