Chapter 113: Pregnant?!!
As Ji Yunqi delivered a heavy kick, Gu Yunzhi’s entire body was sent flying backward.
She crashed into the room door behind her, making a dull thud.
“Cough, cough…”
Looking at the girl kneeling on the ground, clutching her stomach, Ji Yunqi’s eyes held no pity.
Pity was a comfort for one’s own people, or for those who wouldn’t harm you, not a mindset to be afforded to someone who displayed such malice towards you.
“You… you dare hit me?”
A savage malice, rarely seen in ordinary people, flickered in Gu Yunzhi’s eyes, as if she wanted to tear Ji Yunqi to shreds.
Ji Yunqi saw all of this, but she didn’t care in the least, even finding it amusing.
At such a young age, with such malicious thoughts, didn’t the Gu family members manage her at all?
Ji Yunqi didn’t even need to inquire anymore. She could already guess how Gu Yunzhi treated others usually; she likely put on airs and thought highly of herself.
“Why wouldn’t I dare? What’s wrong with hitting you? You made the first move, I was merely acting in self-defense.”
“Heh, let me tell you, there are no surveillance cameras here. If I tell my father later that you hit me, do you think he won’t deal with you?”
Ji Yunqi looked at Gu Yunzhi with surprise. She truly didn’t expect this child to not only be malicious but also so foolish.
“No surveillance cameras? Is that true?” Ji Yunqi asked, feigning surprise.
Seeing Ji Yunqi’s seemingly fearful expression, Gu Yunzhi smiled. In her eyes, Ji Yunqi was scared.
“Of course, it’s true. What, are you scared now? As long as you kneel and kowtow to me, I’ll let you go. How about it?”
“Ugh!”
As soon as Gu Yunzhi finished speaking, Ji Yunqi punched her in the face as she was getting up.
“Damn, no surveillance cameras and you still dare to be so arrogant? You’re thoroughly spoiled. If I don’t beat you until you’re toothless today, I’m not Ji Yunqi!”
“You… How dare you?”
Facing Ji Yunqi’s ferocious attacks, Gu Yunzhi could only retreat to the corner and curl into a ball to protect herself.
Ji Yunqi was also measured in her actions, controlling her strength perfectly to cause Gu Yunzhi pain without leaving marks, so as not to reveal any flaws.
“I… I was wrong, please let me go…”
Ji Yunqi also stopped her movements at this moment, looking triumphantly at Gu Yunzhi, who had completely lost her spirit after being beaten.
Limited by their thinking, most purely bred women who haven’t received professional training don’t know how to fight. Isn’t it said that fights between women are just slapping and pulling hair?
It was precisely because of this that Ji Yunqi, an anomaly, appeared so at ease when facing such a situation.
Although her physical fitness was still not very good, even considered on the weaker side among women, she, having been a man before, knew very well how to exert force correctly.
The reason she could kick Gu Yunzhi flying earlier was because of this.
With fairly skilled combat techniques, Ji Yunqi was not afraid of fighting with these women at all.
She didn’t used to hit women because she was a man!
A good man doesn’t fight with women; why would she, as a man, inexplicably hit a woman?
Unless it was truly unbearable…
However, the situation was different now.
She could hit whenever she wanted, without any reservations.
“Alright, you can go. If there’s a next time, I’ll beat you again!”
“Yes, yes, yes, I’m leaving right now…”
Watching Gu Yunzhi’s embarrassed retreat, Ji Yunqi felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.
Ah,
The feeling of beating someone up without any reservations was truly exhilarating.
Fortunately, her current physique wasn’t very good and her strength was rather small, otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to enjoy the beating so much just now.
“Satisfied~ I can sleep peacefully now~~~”
Because of Gu Yunzhi, Ji Yunqi’s earlier gloomy mood instantly improved.
People,
When under pressure, always need some way to vent. Here, a ready-made punching bag came knocking on her door, which was great.
…
Perhaps because she had slept quite a bit on the plane yesterday, Ji Yunqi didn’t oversleep and woke up early.
Correspondingly, the other people in this villa also woke up at this time, which surprised Ji Yunqi a little.
But thinking about it, as a prominent family in Kyoto, the Gu family must have good living habits, otherwise, how could they become a prominent family?
“You’re up, come and have breakfast quickly.” As soon as Ji Yunqi went downstairs, Li Wei enthusiastically called her to the dining table.
Ji Yunqi naturally had no reason to refuse and naturally ignored everyone else, taking her seat.
At the same time, Ji Yunqi looked at Gu Yunzhi beside her. Gu Yunzhi quickly turned her head away, unwilling to make eye contact with Ji Yunqi.
She hadn’t told anyone about what happened last night. She was truly a little scared, but that didn’t mean she would give up.
Even though she was frightened by Ji Yunqi’s ferocious demeanor last night, Gu Yunzhi had not given up on what she wanted to do.
However, Ji Yunqi didn’t care about all of this…
“Girl, you just got home. You can wander around and have fun in Kyoto for the next few days and relax. After a few days, your father will arrange other things for you.”
Ji Yunqi looked surprised after hearing this. She couldn’t quite understand this man.
Last night, he had seemed so indifferent, so why was he acting like a loving father this morning?
If Ji Yunqi wasn’t such an old hand, she might really have mistaken this man for a good father.
“I know…” Ji Yunqi replied simply, without using the term “father.”
Ji Yunqi disliked the terms “Dad” and “Mom” because she had never experienced paternal or maternal love.
Of course, Ye Lingyu and Jiang Hua didn’t count; strictly speaking, they were her father-in-law and mother-in-law, and they were only addressed as Mom and Dad.
Ji Yunqi was not like other people who, having never experienced parental love, would cry tears of joy upon suddenly finding their biological parents and feeling like they had found family.
To Ji Yunqi, such feelings only evoked disgust. Regardless of the reason, if they weren’t there when she needed them most, then… what was the point of the identity of parents?
She herself was a father and cared deeply about this identity, understanding its responsibilities and obligations. Therefore, she disliked parents who were not present for their children during their times of greatest need.
After a simple breakfast, Ji Yunqi looked at Gu Yunlan, her gaze seeming to ask, “When are we leaving?”
Gu Yunlan knew that when it came to things like medical check-ups, the sooner the better, and the less they were delayed. Since a check-up could be done early, it was only right.
“Let’s go.”
Ji Yunqi was quite surprised to see him leave without bringing anything. She thought young masters always brought a crowd with them when they went out.
However, speaking of which, since arriving here last night, she hadn’t seen many servants.
Only this morning she saw a cook in the kitchen and someone tending to the flowers and plants in the yard. Other than that, there was nothing else.
This was somewhat different from the prominent families she knew, but it was not impossible for this to be an exception.
“Come quickly~”
Just as Ji Yunqi was about to get into the car, she froze. The car in front of her was not the Wuling Hongguang that Gu Yunlan drove in Rongcheng.
It was a model with… a three-letter license plate.
Which was BMW.
“This…”
Although Ji Yunqi knew this was considered a luxury car, she really hadn’t expected Gu Yunlan’s car in Kyoto to be so low-key.
It seemed she still didn’t quite understand the thoughts of the wealthy young masters in Kyoto.
“Let’s go, why are you standing there?”
“Mm, let’s go.”
Ji Yunqi didn’t dwell on it anymore. What car someone drove had nothing to do with her. She was just here to play, not to stay for long.
Perhaps their low-key nature was a sign of good upbringing. After all, from the time she met Gu Yunlan, his demeanor had consistently reflected that of a gentle young master.
He was amiable, not stern, and always had a smile on his face, but not the kind of smiling tiger.
It was comfortable to be around such a person.
“Which hospital are we going to?”
“To ensure your privacy and the hospital’s quality, we’re going to Kyoto Third People’s Hospital.”
Gu Yunlan looked at Ji Yunqi and added, “Because I have some connections with one of their directors, many things have already been arranged for you. You can just go for your check-up when we get there.”
“So that’s how it is.” Ji Yunqi roughly understood. This was called having connections. Last night, when Gu Yunlan said he would arrange everything for her, she thought the Gu family owned a private hospital.
So it was through connections, but wasn’t that normal?
Upon arriving at the hospital, Ji Yunqi saw a long queue for registration in the lobby before she had even entered. Compared to the People’s Hospital in Rongcheng, there were only more people here.
Kyoto, the capital of the country, attracted countless people who left their hometowns to strive here. Kyoto had a large population base.
Moreover, it was the political and financial center of the country, with high living pressure, so there were naturally many people visiting the hospital.
After all, Kyoto was not like Rongcheng. Even though Rongcheng was considered a new first-tier city, it excelled in leisure and lacked such immense pressure.
“Follow me.”
After Gu Yunlan parked the car, he grabbed Ji Yunqi’s hand.
The People’s Hospital had limited parking spaces, making it very difficult to get a parking spot, so he had to park the car not far from the hospital.
Since there were many people and eyes around, and Ji Yunqi was petite, he was worried she might get separated from the crowd, hence this action. He had to ensure his dear niece wouldn’t be swept away by the crowd.
Ji Yunqi also saw the situation clearly. It was indeed a bit chaotic here. Having someone in front of her to clear the way, she was happy to go with the flow. At this moment, she didn’t resist at all, obediently following Gu Yunlan as a “qualified little tail.”
As they pushed through the crowds, they finally reached the examination area.
Because everything had been arranged beforehand, the check-up process went smoothly, and the results came out very quickly.
“Ji Yunqi, who is that?” a nurse asked, looking at the crowd in the waiting area.
Hearing the nurse call her name, Ji Yunqi immediately stood up and ran to the nurse, “It’s me, it’s me~”
Seeing Ji Yunqi’s somewhat clumsy demeanor, the nurse sighed slightly, “Come with me to get your report. Also, there are a few things I need to tell you.”
Gu Yunlan also followed, as Ji Yunqi was brought by him, and he needed to know if there were any issues with her health.
The two followed the nurse into the consulting room.
Inside, an older, middle-aged woman sat, looking at the report in her hand with a slight frown.
“Come, sit down.”
As Ji Yunqi sat in front of her, the elderly woman looked at Gu Yunlan and asked, “Who are you to her?”
“My name is Gu Yunlan. I am her uncle. She is my niece.”
“Oh, oh, oh, I see. That’s fine, you’re family anyway.”
Hearing the old woman speak like this, Ji Yunqi and Gu Yunlan’s hearts immediately tensed.
At this moment, Ji Yunqi could even feel her heart pounding wildly. She was too nervous.
This scene felt exactly like the one a few months ago when she was alone at the hospital in Rongcheng. The doctor then had said something similar.
[“Young man, you need to be prepared.”]
[“Are there no family members coming?”]
[“Never mind, it’s all the same anyway…”]
All the past events seemed to be imprinted in her mind at this moment, and cold sweat began to break out. She was genuinely afraid of leaving her family again.
After all…
They had only been reunited not long ago…
It wasn’t just Ji Yunqi who felt scared. Gu Yunlan beside her was also extremely flustered. Although he knew that the old folks at this hospital all spoke the same way.
They never stated things plainly and deliberately intended to scare people, but this was a hospital, who knew if it was as they thought.
“Doctor, please don’t keep us in suspense. Speaking like this… it’s very frightening…”
“Ahem, alright, I apologize.” Perhaps she also realized this and quickly changed her attitude. The main reason was that she was old, and sometimes her communication style might be poor, and she wouldn’t even realize it herself.
But she couldn’t be blamed for that, could she? She was old, and her mind wasn’t as sharp.
The doctor once again turned her gaze to Ji Yunqi, looking at this frail-looking, adorable girl who barely seemed to have reached adulthood.
Although her ID card showed she was 18 years old, she really looked underage… She was still so young…
“Sigh…”
“No, why are you sighing? Just say it directly if there’s something. Don’t scare us…”
“Oh, okay, okay.”
“Girl, do you… have a boyfriend?”
Upon hearing this, both Gu Yunlan and Ji Yunqi paused. They exchanged glances, both seeing confusion in each other’s eyes.
She was only feeling unwell, tired, and lacking energy. Why was she being asked this?
“No!” x2
They both answered in unison.
Ji Yunqi wasn’t lying. She indeed didn’t have a boyfriend. She only had a wife, so how could she have a boyfriend?
Gu Yunlan simply found it unthinkable, inappropriate, and absolutely impossible!
Ji Yunqi and Gu Yunlan’s firm responses made the doctor somewhat uncertain. She quickly glanced at the lab report in her hand and the information on the computer.
Then she looked at Ji Yunqi.
“Are you sure?”
Ji Yunqi nodded. “Of course. I don’t have a boyfriend.”
“Then that’s strange. If you don’t have a boyfriend, how did you get pregnant? And you’re already a month along.”
…
Upon hearing this, the room fell silent. Both Ji Yunqi and Gu Yunlan were stunned. What had they just heard?
Was this person speaking correctly? She was pregnant…
“I… I’m pregnant?” Ji Yunqi’s face was full of disbelief. She had never considered this possibility. She was actually… pregnant!
Although this was hard for Ji Yunqi to believe, thinking about it carefully, it was indeed within expectation.
After all, she and Ye Mingkong had never used protection. Getting pregnant was a normal occurrence, and it was even remarkable that it was only discovered this late.
“So, will you keep it or…”
“Keep it!”
“Abort it!”
The doctor looked up at the two of them. Ji Yunqi also looked back at Gu Yunlan. All three had different expressions.
The doctor said nothing, just quietly watched the uncle and niece, waiting for them to reach a conclusion.
“Why do you want to keep it?” Gu Yunlan questioned.
“Why do you want me to abort it?” Ji Yunqi retorted unhappily at Gu Yunlan.
This person was really problematic. She was carrying a child, what was it to him? Who was he to demand she abort the child?
“But… if you’re pregnant, who will want you when you get married?”
“Are you an idiot? Of course, I’ll be with the child’s father.”
“Didn’t you say you don’t have a boyfriend? Don’t tell me you’re going back to find that wild man?”
Gu Yunlan’s words greatly displeased Ji Yunqi. Her previous impression of this guy was completely shattered. Indeed, one couldn’t judge a book by its cover.
One couldn’t make a judgment about someone within such a short period of contact.
“Firstly, I indeed don’t have a boyfriend. Secondly, the child is not a wild child, and he is not a wild man. He is my old… husband!”
“We are married, although we haven’t registered yet.”
“This…”
Gu Yunlan was left speechless by Ji Yunqi’s words. This time, he had been negligent and hadn’t investigated Ji Yunqi’s life in Rongcheng thoroughly.
He really hadn’t expected that Ji Yunqi was already married and had a husband.
If that was the case, what should happen next?
Just as Gu Yunlan despaired, he suddenly remembered that Ji Yunqi had said they hadn’t registered yet, meaning it wasn’t official!
Regardless, in a way, that family needed this connection, so they could only accept this loss!
At present, Ji Yunqi was unwilling to have an abortion, and Gu Yunlan couldn’t force her to. That would be illegal and easily exposed; he wasn’t that foolish. At most, he could pressure her to get married. As for abortion…
“Have you guys decided?”
“We’ve decided. I am the mother of the child, and I have the right to decide. I want to keep it!”
The doctor showed a satisfied smile. “Okay, I’ll prescribe some prenatal vitamins for you. Remember to follow the doctor’s orders after you go back, okay?”
“Understood.”
“Oh, and also, remember to come for your prenatal check-ups on time.”
…
After completing the check-up, Ji Yunqi’s mood was greatly improved. She hadn’t expected to be pregnant; this was good news.
Then she could let Old Bi Deng hold his grandson or granddaughter. Wasn’t that his long-cherished wish?
Isn’t this great? Perhaps she could even have a grandson or great-grandson at the same time.
Just thinking about it, Ji Yunqi felt that the scene would surely be beautiful. This could be considered the second crystallization of her and her wife’s love.
The first one had already graduated, and now it was time to raise the second one.
Gu Yunlan, who was driving, looked at Ji Yunqi in the back seat, who was touching her belly with a smile, and felt very helpless.
Everything was developing in a good direction, but… why did such a change occur?
He had to tell his elder brother about this matter. Perhaps they could change their strategy.
“Since you’re pregnant, you should rest at home and not run around. I also have to work and can’t be with you all the time.”
Ji Yunqi nodded indifferently. It didn’t matter. She wished these people wouldn’t be home all day so she could properly rest and give birth.
Then she would directly ask Old Bi Deng where he lived and surprise him with the child.
Upon returning to the villa, Gu Yunlan left, leaving only Gu Yunzhi and Ji Yunqi, along with some other “staff.”
Gu Yunzhi, who was sitting on the sofa, began to tremble as soon as she saw Ji Yunqi. Then she averted her gaze and refused to look at Ji Yunqi.
She was afraid that a wrong glance would offend the other person, and she would be beaten again.
Unlike Gu Yunzhi’s timidity, Ji Yunqi hummed a little tune and naturally returned to her room.
She didn’t plan to tell Ye Mingkong about this matter yet. She would give him a surprise when she returned!
Before this, Ji Yunqi hadn’t known about this and had been unrestrained in her actions, doing anything and everything.
For instance, just half a month ago, she had even gone out with Jiang You to eat at roadside stalls, grill skewers, and drink!
At that time, she had felt a little nauseous after eating those meat skewers but hadn’t taken it seriously, thinking it was due to being too tired.
Now, she finally understood. It wasn’t that she was too tired, but rather that she was pregnant.
Since she knew she was pregnant, she would have to be careful.
On the way back, Ji Yunqi had learned that there was a cook here, and she could just call her Aunt Wang and tell her what she wanted to eat.
Ji Yunqi touched her belly. And coincidentally, she hadn’t been able to eat properly during this period because of this reason; mainly, she couldn’t eat.
Thinking of this, Ji Yunqi went downstairs and found Wang Ma, who was playing with her phone.
“Aunt Wang, are you… free?”
“Yes, Miss. Of course, I’m free. Does Miss want to eat something?”
“Yes, please make me something suitable for a one-month pregnant woman. Thank you.”
“Okay, Miss. I’ll… What?”
Wang Ma: 😨😳😳😳
