Chapter 500 Song Ruyan is Pregnant
"No!" Song Ruyan replied irritably, but her voice was lower than usual, carrying a hint of grievance that she herself was unaware of.
She didn't even know what she was angry about.
Is it because he keeps mentioning Miss Su in every other sentence? Or is it because he's so engrossed in praising her?
She felt a tightness in her chest, as if something was stuck there, neither rising nor falling.
Seeing her like this, Dr. Qian was even more at a loss.
He was usually quite skilled at studying medicine and pharmacology, but he was somewhat helpless when faced with his wife's sudden outburst of temper.
"Then...why is that?" He took a step forward, wanting to take her hand, but hesitated.
Song Ruyan turned her head away from him and said in a muffled voice, "It's nothing, I'm just tired and want to rest."
This is clearly an excuse.
Dr. Qian looked at her tense profile and slightly pursed lips. His wife, who was usually cheerful and always smiling, was now like a cat with its fur standing on end.
He tentatively reached out his hand: "Ruyan, are you feeling unwell? Let me help you..."
Before she could finish speaking, Song Ruyan suddenly flung her hand and grabbed her with a swift, decisive tackle!
"Ouch!" Doctor Qian cried out as his wrist went numb, and his body involuntarily slumped down as she pulled him down.
He usually fiddles with medicinal herbs, so he's no match for a female martial arts expert.
When Song Ruyan saw him cry out in pain, she subconsciously loosened her grip a little, but she still didn't let go, and just glared at him.
"Who's unwell? Do I look unwell to you?"
Dr. Qian rubbed his wrist, which was red from being pinched, with a pained expression, but his tone remained gentle.
"Okay, okay, you're not feeling unwell. I was just overthinking it, I was just overthinking it."
He carefully coaxed and tried to soothe the ruffled cat.
"Hmph!" Song Ruyan finally released her grip, turned her head away, her chest still heaving. "Do you think I'm crazy?"
"Taking my pulse? I think you just want to say I'm being unreasonable!"
"I didn't mean that!" Dr. Qian waved his hands repeatedly, looking completely innocent. "I just... I was just concerned about you."
"I don't need your concern!" Song Ruyan felt more and more aggrieved as she spoke, pointing to the door: "Don't stay in my room today! Go sleep outside!"
Dr. Qian was taken aback, knowing that she was angry and wouldn't listen to anything he said.
He sighed and stopped arguing, saying only, "Alright, I'll go out. You should rest early and not upset yourself."
He turned and silently walked out of the bedroom, gently closing the door behind him.
The night outside was cool and still. Doctor Qian stood under the eaves, looking somewhat troubled.
Go back to the pharmacy where you usually see patients and sleep?
When the servants see this tomorrow, they will surely gossip, which will be bad for Ruyan's reputation.
If Ruyan knew, she would probably be even angrier.
He hesitated for a moment, then finally sat down by the pillar at the bedroom door.
A night breeze blew by, carrying a chill. He tightened his clothes, closed his eyes, and hoped that his wife would calm down soon.
The next morning, it was just dawn.
With a creak, the bedroom door opened from the inside. Song Ruyan walked out, still sleepy-eyed.
Dr. Qian, who was leaning against the door, lost his balance and almost fell forward into the house.
"Huh?" Song Ruyan was startled by the noise. Upon closer inspection, she realized that her husband was curled up at the door.
His hair was slightly disheveled, and his clothes were a little wrinkled. He was rubbing his sleepy eyes and awkwardly propped himself up against the door frame.
"You... what are you doing here?" Song Ruyan was stunned. The anger she felt last night dissipated most of its intensity when she saw him like this.
A strange feeling welled up inside me, a mix of guilt and heartache...
Dr. Qian yawned and forced a smile: "I'm just worried something might happen to you tonight, so I'll keep watch here for peace of mind."
Song Ruyan pursed her lips, said nothing more, and turned to enter the bathroom.
When she came out, Dr. Qian had already tidied up a bit. Seeing her coming, he hurried to greet her, his tone cautious: "Ruyan, are you still angry?"
Song Ruyan glared at him, but her gaze was no longer as sharp as it had been the night before.
Doctor Qian dared not mention taking her pulse again, but instead took an outer garment from the side and considerately draped it over her shoulders.
"It's chilly in the morning, so don't catch a cold."
His fingertips inadvertently touched her wrist, and Song Ruyan subconsciously tried to pull away, but he gently pressed her wrist down.
Dr. Qian's expression remained unchanged, as if he were merely adjusting her sleeves, but his fingertips had already quietly touched her crease.
Song Ruyan frowned slightly, about to speak.
The next moment, Dr. Qian's expression suddenly changed, as if he had been startled by something. He abruptly released her hand, his eyes wide open.
"Awooo—!" He suddenly let out a strange cry and rushed into the yard like a gust of wind.
Song Ruyan was startled by his sudden action. She clutched her chest and stared in astonishment at his retreating figure.
"What...what's wrong with you? Are you having a nightmare?"
Before he finished speaking, Dr. Qian rushed back like a whirlwind, his face filled with a look of ecstasy and disbelief.
He grabbed Song Ruyan's shoulders, his voice trembling, "Ruyan! Ruyan! You...you're pregnant! You're pregnant!"
Song Ruyan was dizzy from his shaking: "What is it? Explain yourself clearly!"
"Pregnant! Pregnant!" Doctor Qian was so excited that he was incoherent. After saying that, he suddenly turned around, rushed back into the courtyard, and laughed loudly.
"Hahaha! My Tian family... my Tian family finally has an heir! An heir! Hahaha!"
His loud laughter, filled with irrepressible joy, echoed throughout the entire courtyard.
Song Ruyan stood there for a long time before she could process the news.
She looked down at her lower abdomen, her face full of astonishment and confusion.
Is she pregnant?
Why doesn't she feel anything?
Watching her husband gesturing wildly in the yard like a child who had just received candy, Song Ruyan's feelings became complicated.
There was joy, but a trace of worry also surfaced in my mind.
After Dr. Qian finished laughing, he ran back, grabbed her hand, and was so excited that he didn't know what to say, he just kept laughing like an idiot.
Song Ruyan looked at him and suddenly spoke softly, "What if... we had a daughter?"
Dr. Qian's laughter paused, then he asked without hesitation, "What's wrong with my daughter?"
"My daughter is also a descendant of the Tian family! She is our flesh and blood! I love her dearly!"
He spoke with unwavering conviction, his eyes filled with sincerity.
Upon hearing this, Song Ruyan's last remaining doubts vanished, and a relieved smile finally appeared on her face.
She gently stroked her lower abdomen, where a small life was growing.
This feeling is wonderful... and exciting.
"I got pregnant just like that?" she murmured to herself, still finding it somewhat unbelievable.
The commotion in their courtyard had already alerted the other residents of the Duke's mansion.
Chu Ruohan and Gu Junze arrived first, followed by Su Wan, who had come after hearing the news.
"What's going on? Dr. Qian, Ruyan, what's all this commotion so early in the morning?" Chu Ruohan asked with a smile, her gaze sweeping between the two of them.
