Chapter 185

“I have no experience at all. If I rashly open a shop, I’ll definitely lose money, right? I can’t bear to waste anything now. I want to earn money, enough to move my parents and sister to the city together. Although I have the ability now, if I sit idly by, the money will soon be gone. I must have a long-term plan.” Qing Qing clenched his fists.

Time passed quickly, and it was already evening when Ye Zhi had to leave.

Qing Qing originally wanted to send him off, but his body was still weak, and his parents didn’t allow it. In the end, it was Yu who rode a tricycle to take Ye Zhi.

Yu’s personality seemed more resolute than his husband’s, not as shy, but he gave people an inexplicable feeling of gentleness and home. He rode the tricycle slowly and steadily, but when they arrived at their destination, Ye Zhi still felt like vomiting.

Was there something wrong with his body?

Ye Zhi didn’t panic. He was alone, having lost his lover, and whether he lived or died didn’t matter. It was just that this feeling was really uncomfortable. He had wanted to endure it in front of Yu, but he couldn’t hold it back and had to grab a nearby tree to vomit.

He still didn’t vomit anything, but the acid reflux was very strong. Ye Zhi felt so uncomfortable that he wanted to scratch his tongue to induce vomiting. A gentle hand had already started patting his back.

After being comforted for a while, Ye Zhi finally calmed down.

“Th-thank you…”

Yu spoke up, “Go to the hospital for a check-up.”

Ye Zhi smiled, “Okay, I’ll go tomorrow or the day after.”

“I’ll go with you now. The obstetrician-gynecologist I know should still be on duty.” Yu’s expression was firm.

Ye Zhi originally wanted to decline, but he quickly realized the significance of Yu’s words. “Ob-obstetrics and gynecology?” He thought Yu had misunderstood and hurriedly explained, “I’m male, not…”

“But your symptoms are exactly the same as when I was pregnant.” Yu stared at him, his tone very certain.

Suddenly, Ye Zhi’s heart trembled violently, foreseeing a possibility. His whole body stiffened, and it took a long time for him to force out an awkward smile. “It should… not be…”

“But have you had penetrative sexual intercourse? If you have, then there’s a possibility of pregnancy.”

Ye Zhi swallowed hard and explained, “But I’ve been taking… long-term contraceptive pills…”

“Contraceptive pills are not one hundred percent effective. Let’s go check it out. Just one ultrasound and we’ll know everything.” Yu grabbed him onto the tricycle without hesitation and started the vehicle again.

The road in the town was better, smoother, and Ye Zhi didn’t feel much jolting, but this might have been related to his stunned state.

Pregnant? How could that be?

Although a glimmer of hope arose in his heart, Ye Zhi forced himself to suppress it. In order to avoid disappointment, he forced himself to believe that it was just a reaction to gastroenteritis. But his heart became more and more uneasy.

The town was small, and so was the hospital, but there were doctors on duty twenty-four hours a day, and the obstetrics and gynecology department was no exception. Yu parked the tricycle outside and, familiarly, took Ye Zhi inside, finding the obstetrics and gynecology department and gently pushing him in. “Dr. He, please examine him.”

Dr. He was a woman in her fifties or sixties, looking very experienced in obstetrics. She looked at Yu and her gaze fell on his stomach. “Are you pregnant again?”

“It’s not me.” Yu pushed the dazed Ye Zhi forward. “It’s him. His symptoms are very similar to when I was pregnant.”

“Oh, then lift up your shirt, pull down your pants a bit, expose your entire abdomen, and lie down on the table.”

Ye Zhi was a little flustered, his fingers trembling, unable to undo the buttons of his pants. It was Yu who came over to help, pushing him onto the table and gently comforting him, “Child, don’t worry. I’ll be with you.”
