Perhaps flustered, or perhaps guilty, Zhao Wuyan slipped on the stairs while going down, falling with a tumble.
“Ah~”
A scream echoed through the villa, alarming everyone.
Tang Ziwei was naturally the quickest to react.
Just as he was about to return to his room, Tang Ziwei heard Zhao Wuyan’s voice, immediately turned, and rushed towards the stairwell. There, he saw Zhao Wuyan lying unconscious on the stairs.
“Wuyan?”
Tang Ziwei’s face paled. He quickly rushed to her side and helped her up. “Wuyan, are you okay…”
Before he could finish the word ‘okay’, Tang Ziwei felt a sticky sensation on his palm. He looked up to see his clean palm covered in bright red blood, a stark and jarring sight.
“Oh dear, what happened to Wuyan? Why is she bleeding out of nowhere?”
Tang Mu, who was coming up from downstairs, was terrified at the sight. She immediately shouted to the servants behind her, “Quickly, take Wuyan to the hospital by car.”
Tang Ziwei did not dare to delay. He immediately scooped Zhao Wuyan into his arms and hurried downstairs.
Half an hour later, Zhao Wuyan was sent to a nearby hospital. Another thirty minutes later, the examination results were handed to Tang Mu.
At this moment, Tang Mu and Tang Ziwei were pacing back and forth in the hallway, anxiously awaiting news.
“Mrs. Tang, who is inside that belongs to you?”
Because of Tang Si, the doctor recognized Tang Si’s mother and spoke to her with utmost respect.
“She…” Tang Mu hesitated for a moment, then finally said, “That girl is my future daughter-in-law. Oh dear, Doctor Zhang, please tell me about her condition first. Why is she bleeding? Is she seriously injured?”
The doctor, addressed as ‘Doctor Zhang’, smiled and adjusted his glasses. “Hahaha, Mrs. Tang, please don’t be nervous. Look at this…”
He handed the ultrasound report to Tang Mu and pointed at the color ultrasound image. “Congratulations, she’s already with child, over a month along. You’re going to be a grandmother, hahaha…”
“Ah? This…?”
Tang Mu held the ultrasound report, too overjoyed to speak for a long time. “I’m… I’m going to be a grandmother?”
The news came too suddenly; she could hardly believe it.
“Yes, we’ve given your future daughter-in-law a comprehensive examination and confirmed her pregnancy. However, she fell down the stairs and is experiencing bleeding, so she needs to be hospitalized to protect the pregnancy,” the doctor explained the situation briefly.
Tang Mu was immersed in her excitement and didn’t snap out of it for a long time. Naturally, she didn’t notice the peculiar expression and gaze from Tang Ziwei behind her.
“Doctor Zhang, you’ve worked hard. Thank you,” Tang Mu said repeatedly. Doctor Zhang replied, “It’s all part of our duty,” and returned to his office.
Tang Mu looked at the ultrasound report for a long time, her face beaming with happiness.
It wasn’t until the unconscious Zhao Wuyan woke up and was moved to a VIP room that Tang Mu walked over to her and asked, “Wuyan, why didn’t you tell me about such a big thing? You child, you should tell me if you’re wronged.”
Despite the scolding tone, Tang Mu’s affection for her was evident.
Zhao Wuyan leaned against the headboard, her hand by the bedside attached to an IV drip. She still felt weak, but Tang Mu’s words earlier sent a chill down her spine.
As she looked up at Tang Mu, her gaze met Tang Ziwei’s from behind her.
In just that single glance, it was as if countless pieces of information were exchanged in that fleeting moment.
Feeling guilty, Zhao Wuyan averted her eyes and forced a smile. “Auntie, I… I…”
Zhao Wuyan was usually accustomed to being arrogant and overbearing, but in the Tang family, perhaps due to her overwhelming affection for Tang Si, she was very restrained, and even felt a bit nervous and uneasy facing Tang Mu.
