Chapter 30: Hospital Prenatal Crisis

  Su Haicheng directly used Kakaxi's tablet to write on it: "Hang up!"

  I said into the phone: "Grandpa, I'm sorry!" After finishing speaking, I hung up the phone. If this call continued, something bad would definitely happen, so it's better to end it like this.

  After hanging up the phone, I said to Su Haicheng: "Yesterday, we seemed too hasty. Suddenly disappearing like this, they will definitely be suspicious."

  Su Haicheng nodded: "Mm, I was also negligent."

  Kakaxi leaned against the door frame, looking at us two and smiled: "Si Yijie, isn't it moving to be snatched back by someone? Look, just like that, they brought you back, how come nobody suspects anything. It's exposed now, I said dead people, you're also a soldier, how could you make such a mistake. Oh, I understand, you really like Si Yijie, that's why your brain is muddled."

  "You're the one who's being showy!" I retorted, annoyed. "Can't you see I'm still lying in bed? What are you doing standing by the door?"

  "What does it mean? Isn't your husband by your bedside?" He replied, "Sister, you really look like you're pregnant."

  He said that and I looked down at my clothes, still in maternity wear, how embarrassing!

  After I got up, washed and dressed, the room had been occupied by Kakaxi. He was playing videos on the computer and when he saw me coming over, he quickly pulled me to sit down with him, saying "Study hard!"

  "What's to learn?" I asked with an innocent face.

  "Diving ah! You really won't go with us next time? That dead person said he would dive, and he's a dead person, so he automatically dives when he gets in the water. We don't care about him, we're learning."

  On the computer desktop, a scuba diving tutorial with an oxygen tank was playing. Watching others dive into the water with flippers on their feet and slide in smoothly, my first thought was: "The water looks quite cold. By the time we go again, it'll probably be mid-October. It should be pretty chilly in the mountains by then. Moreover, the lake is surrounded by mountains on all sides, with short daylight hours, won't the water be extremely cold, causing cramps as soon as you get in?"

  "So pretentious, don't go! You're seriously affecting morale."

  "I just mentioned it, I didn't say I'm not going."

  "Then you study hard and we'll buy this brand of diving suit. Let me tell you, we don't have time to test it out, if you cramp up as soon as you get in the water, you can only save yourself."

  I watched that video and really couldn't believe it, one day I would go diving.

  Kakaxi left soon after, and the boss called him to prepare to go out and buy equipment. The boss never spared any expense in such matters.

  Kakaxi left, and only I and Su Haicheng were left at home. He leaned against the door frame, watching me in front of the computer, occasionally imitating the movements on the screen, learning to dive. He said: "Don't go!"

  His tone was affirmative, not asking for my opinion, just informing me. I stopped the hand that was still gesturing: "Why can't I go?"

  "Don't go! This time going might be even more dangerous."

  "Kakaxi is also going, our boss is also going." I exclaimed anxiously.

  "They're going, I don't care, even if I didn't go, they would still go. But you can't go!"

  "I... Then I'll go with them, not with you, it's none of your business anyway."

  "I've arranged it this way for your own safety!"

  "I didn't need special treatment, it was you who dragged me in from the start. Can't just let me quit now, can I? You shouldn't have come to find me in the first place! I hate his attitude, why does he want to exclude me, am I really that weak? Kakashi is willing to bring along someone like him who gets winded after running a few steps."

  Just as I was still entangled in these problems in my mind, he suddenly took two steps forward and pulled me up from the computer chair. My first reaction in my heart was that he wanted to hit me!

  "Ah!" I exclaimed, closing my eyes and not daring to look at his face. But the next second, his lips were on mine, and as I was still opening my mouth in shock, his tongue had already slipped in.

  "Ugh..." I struggled, but his strength was too great, and my resistance had no effect. My fists pounded against his back like pounding against a wall.

  He held me tightly, kissing me until I went soft in his arms, letting him hold me. His chin rested on my head as he said, "Now you know why I didn't let you go. Did I have the right to control you?"

  "I'm going!" I said stubbornly. The next second, his kiss fell again. When he let go, I could only breathe heavily. He patted my cheek: "Your lung capacity is really poor, new recruits are stronger than you."

  He didn't say anything else. If he asked me again if I wanted to go, I really wouldn't know how to answer. If I said yes, would he continue to kiss me?

  But what does he mean by this? Is he saying that he now has the right to control me just because he can kiss me, and he's treating me like his real girlfriend? We did kiss before, but not once was it like this, so... This dead person actually put his hand inside my clothes!

  Just as I was jumping away from him, my phone rang. I suddenly felt that whoever was calling me now wasn't going to be good news. But even if it's bad news, it's better than this. With the atmosphere we have right now, his hand just touched mine... If this goes on, I might really become the first person to sleep with a dead man.

  No, there were quite a few people in history. No, what's wrong with you! This can't be used indiscriminately. Don't think about it, don't think about it. I'll answer the phone, I'll answer the phone. Okay, fine, I admit it, I'm all messed up right now because of Su Haicheng's touch just now. My mind is like hundreds of crows flying back and forth.

  So I made another mistake and answered without checking the caller ID.

  "Chen Siyi, take a day off tomorrow and meet me at the main gate of the Municipal People's Hospital at 8:30 in the morning. I'll take you for a prenatal check-up."

  I was stunned, the hundreds of crows flying around in my head were all eliminated by Su Mama's "bang" and became a blank. It took me a while to find my voice: "Auntie, I can go myself!"

  "Don't give me any nonsense, take your body to that mountain again, what if something happens to the child, you can't afford it! Be on time tomorrow. I'm already in A city and have made an appointment with a doctor at the hospital."

  This time she hung up on me. I slowly put down the phone, and my mind had already completely forgotten about the intimate conversation earlier, only thinking about what I should do tomorrow?

  "Suhai City," I said with a crying face, and even forgot that there was still his saliva on my lips. "Your mom is too capable, we are not her opponents."

  "What's wrong?"

  "She said she's already in City A and wants me to go with her to the hospital for a prenatal checkup tomorrow. What kid do I have for her to check? I'm doomed, my lie is exposed. Will your mom arrest me for fraud? I'm almost crying. Honestly, given Su's mom's personality, if she finds out I'm not pregnant with her grandchild, she'll definitely make my life miserable."

  Su Haicheng let out a quiet sigh: "I'm going out for a bit. Tomorrow, you go to the hospital with my mom on time, I'll try to coordinate." He finished speaking and hurriedly left.

  I glared at his back, muttering to myself: "Coordinate? How can I coordinate? At this point, even if I were to give in and let him have his way, it's still too late." Tomorrow might be the last day I see the free sunlight. You know, I used up all the money in Su Haicheng's card to buy a car, clothes, and... If only I had known better back then, I would have bought a house instead. At least houses appreciate in value. When his mother accuses me of fraud someday, I can sell the house to cover my expenses, and even if I have to pay back the money, I shouldn't end up in jail, right?

  Because of this, I couldn't sleep all night. And Su Haicheng didn't come back either. Would he hide first and let me bear the consequences alone? No way, he's not that kind of person. If I don't go to the hospital tomorrow, his mom won't be able to do anything about it, right? What if his mom gets angry and sends a police car to pick me up? That would be even more embarrassing.
