Reborn As Super Heiress

As soon as Gu Xu saw Huo Sining’s appearance, he knew his wife was scared.

After thinking for a moment, a light bulb went off in his head, and he quickly said:

”Nai, this is not a small matter. It’s a big issue concerning the future population of our Gu Family. We can’t just handle it rashly.”

”I think the results from this pregnancy test stick aren’t necessarily accurate. How about this, I’ll take Ningning to a big hospital for a check-up. Didn’t Doctor Su say that mechanical test data is the most authoritative? So we should go to the most authoritative hospital.”

”We weren’t even planning on getting pregnant. This child was completely unexpected. We don’t even know if we drank alcohol or broke any taboos when we conceived. If Ningning is really pregnant, then we need to confirm if the child is healthy and if we can successfully nurture a healthy baby. Don’t you think?”

As soon as Gu Xu said this, the Gu family was immediately drawn by his topic. Several elders thought about it and found that Gu Xu’s words made some sense, especially considering that the two of them had been busy with social engagements and work lately, running constantly and not actively preparing for pregnancy. They didn’t know if there would be any problems with a child conceived at this time.

Thinking about this, the elders couldn’t help but feel a bit anxious and quickly nodded, ”Yes, yes, yes, Xiao Xu is right. This matter must be taken seriously. Take Ningning to the hospital for a comprehensive check-up first.”

Master Gu even directly put down the two walnut toys in his hand and said:

”How about I call Chief Lu and just go directly to Yulong Mountain? Isn’t Professor Nie claiming to be half a mentor to this girl Huo? Now that Huo girl is pregnant, it shouldn’t be a problem for this mentor to help Ning girl with a check-up, right?”

Gu Xu was just looking for an excuse to take his wife away from the old house and discuss a plan at the villa. Hearing that his grandfather even wanted to inform Chief Lu, he was suddenly so anxious that sweat almost broke out on his forehead:

”Grandpa, we don’t even know the child’s situation yet, and you want to inform Chief Lu, causing such a big fuss. If there’s any problem later, wouldn’t everyone know? Besides, Professor Nie Dechang is a Chinese medicine practitioner, and he’s not good at obstetrics and gynecology. We need a professional Western obstetrician now. Even if you ask Professor Nie, he won’t be able to help.”

Grandpa Gu was reminded by Gu Xu and suddenly realized that he had given a bad idea. His old face turned red with some embarrassment, and he said:

”Not asking Nie Dechang is also fine. You can ask Nie Dechang to help you find a powerful obstetrics and gynecology professor to take a look. Guest professors like those at Yulong Mountain are not nonexistent.”

Gu Xu quickly nodded: ”Yes, Yulong Mountain definitely has such people, but we really don’t need to go to Yulong Mountain. This requires Chief Lu to give us the green light, and this kind of thing doesn’t conform to our Gu Family’s rules. Don’t worry, I know a sea turtle postdoc who returned from America and specializes in obstetrics and gynecology. In this area, he’s absolutely authoritative.”

Gu Xu spoke seriously, and the Gu family knew that Gu Xu was steady in character. If he said as much, it meant that his acquaintances were indeed reliable. So the other Gu family members who were going to offer advice also gave up. After giving a few more reminders, they let Gu Xu take Huo Sining away from the Gu family old house.

Back in the car, Huo Sining couldn’t help but pat her chest and exclaimed: ”Oh my God, that scared me to death. We finally got out alive.”

Gu Xu originally wanted to ask Huo Sining what to do, but when he heard his wife’s words, he couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

”What do you mean by finally getting out alive? Do you think the old house is a dragon’s lair, tiger’s den?” Gu Xu leaned over to buckle Huo Sining’s seatbelt and, amused, tapped her nose with his forehead.

Huo Sining felt an itch in her nose, quickly turned her head to dodge, and gave Gu Xu an exasperated look, saying:

”It’s scarier than a dragon’s lair, tiger’s den, okay? Didn’t you see how your grandma and mom were looking at my belly like they wished they could blow it up like a balloon with one breath? Those eyes were practically glowing, okay? It made my heart feel cold.”

Gu Xu laughed, ”They just want to hold a grandson and great-grandson. Chengxuan is the only troublemaker in the house, and it’s not lively enough.”

Huo Sining was so anxious she was about to cry: ”And you can still laugh about it? Weren’t we supposed to come back and tell them about little Niuniu, and now the story has developed like this? I was wondering why my period is late. I thought it was because of consuming too much spiritual energy while surveying that ancient tomb in Fucheng recently, causing my body to be exhausted and my aunt to be irregular. Who knew I was actually pregnant!”

Gu Xu was originally quite nervous, but for some reason, seeing Huo Sining jumping around in a fluster, he just found it amusing. His worry and fear dissipated, and he smirked wickedly, saying to Huo Sining:

”Calculating the time, this child should have been conceived during those days in Fucheng, and it was you, my wife, who seduced me.”

Huo Sining’s body suddenly stiffened, and being teased by Gu Xu’s ambiguous tone, she couldn’t help but think back to those events at the Fucheng Hotel. Recalling those passionate scenes, her face turned red, and she gave Gu Xu a playful scold.

On that day, after discovering a baby had fallen from the sky and then understanding what was going on with that child, Gu Xu rushed from the Imperial Capital to Fucheng in a hurry. Huo Sining was captivated by the chubby baby, thinking the child was soft and adorable, and she wanted a child herself. Then they spent a wild time together.

But after that reckless night, Huo Sining soon threw it to the back of her mind, never imagining that just this once would actually get her caught.

And the consequences of this were very severe, leaving her completely at a loss, her mind muddled, unable to think of any countermeasure.

”What should I do now? The ticking time bomb, Niuniu, hasn’t even been defused yet, and now there’s another heavy bomb. I feel like I’m standing on the edge of a cliff! I dare to bet that with your grandpa and grandma’s gossiping ability, by tonight, all those prestigious families in the Imperial Capital will know about this. Tomorrow, the news of my suspected pregnancy will hit the headlines of all major newspapers, and by then my phone will almost certainly blow up!”

Huo Sining looked at Gu Xu with a bitter expression, hoping he could come up with an idea.

Gu Xu nodded, suddenly stepped on the gas pedal, made a turn, and drove straight out.

Huo Sining was suddenly a bit confused: ”Where are you going?”

Gu Xu smiled and said to his wife, ”To the hospital.”
