Chapter 865: 865: Dad
Wen Yanqing understood Lin Gantang; the first time she was too shy, she had to be pestered persistently or worn down until she softened to get the benefits, just like the cat costume incident earlier.
Wen Yanqing quietly pondered, with dark light swirling in his deep eyes.
But Lin Gantang was not scared at all, thinking to herself, go ahead, take your time thinking, anyway my period is about to start, I can’t cooperate even if you force me, and if you can get a “Dad” out of me, I’ll concede defeat.
However, Lin Gantang almost miscalculated, because when the time came, her aunt Flo did not show up.
Having experienced a delayed period before, Lin Gantang didn’t take it too seriously this time, thinking delays will become the norm if they keep on happening, and she wouldn’t panic like last time. Plus, she’d been indulging in the cool water of the swimming pool recently and thought it quite normal that it might have affected her cycle.
That was what she thought, but after waiting for about four days, Lin Gantang couldn’t remain calm anymore.
Is Aunt Flo ever going to visit?
…You’ve got to be kidding me, do you want to swap her out for another relative?
Lin Gantang silently took out the leftover pregnancy test from the crevice of the wardrobe.
In the bathroom.
Lin Gantang stared at the red line on it, perfectly calm, and even leisurely thought, oh, so this is what the legendary two lines look like?
She cleaned up, washed her hands, and came out to see Wen Yanqing changing clothes. She was about to tell him directly, but then she thought it was better to go to the hospital for a confirmation, in case she got his hopes up for nothing.
So Lin Gantang also took a set of clothes from the wardrobe to change into.
“Heading out so early today?” Wen Yanqing asked.
“Yeah, I have something to do, will you be busy today?” Lin Gantang asked.
“I need to meet with an important client this morning.”
Lin Gantang nodded, telling him to go ahead with his work, and that she would drive out later.
Wen Yanqing kissed her forehead before he left home.
As for Lin Gantang, she went straight to the hospital after she was ready.
After visiting gynecology and following through the scheduled checks, Lin Gantang finally got the results.
Seeing the young-looking Lin Gantang alone, the doctor asked, “Are you married?”
“I am,” Lin Gantang answered.
The doctor informed her, “It’s an intrauterine pregnancy, and the gestational sac is developing normally. Is this your first child?”
“Yes.”
The doctor advised, “Remember to do prenatal checks on time moving forward. Take folic acid for the first three months, eat light, and rest plenty.”
Lin Gantang listened seriously, nodding continuously.
After leaving the hospital, Lin Gantang didn’t go to the bookstore but directly went home instead.
She took out the slip again, looking at the ultrasound report:
“Single intrauterine pregnancy, early stage.”
Thinking back on how Wen Yanqing had coaxed her with a pitiful voice, expressing his desire for children, Lin Gantang couldn’t help but laugh, and took out her phone to snap a photo of the report, and casually sent a message:
[Dad.]
Wen Yanqing, who had just finished a meeting and was walking out of the conference room holding documents, picked up his phone and saw this “Dad”, thinking Lin Gantang was teasing him again.
Refusing to say it last night, and now flirting with me?
Fondness appeared in Wen Yanqing’s eyes, which lasted until he opened the image, and then he stood frozen in place.
Yi Qian, who was close behind, braked suddenly, “CEO?”
No one answered.
Yi Qian called out again, only to see his CEO shove the documents into his arms and stride off without another word.
Yi Qian managed to grasp the documents and hurriedly asked, “Where are you going, CEO? Your office is to the right…”
“Wrong.” He hadn’t even finished speaking when the figure had disappeared.
Yi Qian: …So, he’s skipping work again?
