Translator: Legge Editor: Legge

Upstairs.

In Old Wu’s office.

Zhang Ye pushed the door open and went inside. Seeing no one around, he picked up a cup and poured himself some tea. Then he sat down and started sipping the tea.

Dong dong.

There was a knock on the door.

Zhang Ye shouted, “Please come in.”

Bai Li stepped into the office. “Mr. Zhang, I heard that you were here.”

“You’re just in time.” Zhang Ye took out the document. “Old Wu wanted this.”

Bai Li smiled and took it from him. “Alright, I’ll send it over to Chief Wu. She’s in a meeting right now, and I reckon it’ll still take another hour. You’ll have to wait a little while for her.”

Zhang Ye smacked his lips and said, “This Old Wu, why has she become so forgetful recently?”

Bai Li thought for a moment and said worriedly, “Chief Wu doesn’t seem like she is feeling very well these days.”

Zhang Ye was taken aback. “Is that so?”

Bai Li said, “She hasn’t been feeling very well these past few days.”

Zhang Ye snorted. “Why didn’t I know about that?”

Bai Li said, “Chief Wu must’ve been afraid that you’d be worried, so she didn’t tell you.”

Zhang Ye got a little miffed. “Heh, this Old Wu!”

Bai Li said, “Then I’ll send the documents over to her.”

After Secretary Bai left and the door closed behind her, Zhang Ye could not help but secretly blame himself. He had been so busy fighting and making a push for the Asian A-list rankings that he did not even notice Old Wu’s discomfort the past few days. As a husband, he really had been too incompetent. He definitely needed to reflect upon it!

Was it a cold?

Or something else?

Zhang Ye was not worried at all. He still had the [Spring Water of Health] item which he had won from the lottery draw the last time. Not mentioning catching a cold or a fever, even if you were about to take your last breath, it would still be able to save you. At most, he would give the [Spring Water of Health] to Old Wu as a cold medication!

Zhang Ye would never be stingy when it came to his wife.

Ring, ring, ring.

His cell phone rang. There was a call for him.

Zhang Ye took it out and had a look at the caller ID. Then he smiled. It was a call from Heavenly Queen Xu Meilan.

Zhang Ye picked up. “Hello? Sister Lan.”

Xu Meilan said: “Thank you.”

“It’s settled?”

“Hur hur, with you around, what matter cannot be resolved with the SARFT? It’s already settled. They immediately started processing it after you intervened. You’ve done us a great favor this time. If it wasn’t for you, we wouldn’t have been able to line up the movie for the critical period in these few days. If the screening had been delayed, it would’ve caused a huge blow to the box office earnings and reputation of the movie. We couldn’t have afforded such a loss.”

Zhang Ye said: “Alright then, it’s great that it’s settled. As for you, was this the hesitation during the earlier call?”

“Yes, but when I gave it some thought, I felt that I probably shouldn’t bother you with it.”

“Heh, it wasn’t that big of a deal. You could have just asked.”

Xu Meilan laughed and said: “I just heard from Little Yang that you looked right at home in the SARFT. Little Yang told me that she was in such awe after stepping inside that she didn’t dare utter a word. She also said that you have a good standing there, and that I must definitely thank you properly for your help.”

“Hai, it’s all credit to my wife that I am so ‘well-respected’ here.”

“Anyway, I owe you big time. Pick a date. I’ll treat you to a meal when you’re free.”

“It’s nothing, there’s no need to.”

“That won’t do. It’s settled then.”

“Sure, alright then.”

After hanging up, he sat there and waited.

Half an hour.

An hour.

Finally, the click clacking of high heels came from outside the door.

Wu Zeqing opened the door and came in. When she saw her husband sitting on the sofa, she smiled and said, “You’re here?”

Zhang Ye rolled his eyes. “I’ve been here for more than an hour already.”

Wu Zeqing closed the door behind her. “I thought you already went back.”

“Why would I go back?” Zhang Ye stood up and said, “Secretary Bai told me that you haven’t been feeling well these few days. What’s the matter? Where do you feel unwell?”

Wu Zeqing said casually, “It’s nothing.”

Zhang Ye stared at her. “And how are you suddenly feeling alright?”

Old Wu smiled. “I’m just feeling a little tired and dizzy.”

“How is that nothing?” Zhang Ye became anxious the moment he heard. “Hurry, let’s go to the hospital to get you looked at!”

Old Wu waved it off. “There’s no need. Why are we going to the hospital for such a small matter?”

Zhang Ye said without explaining, “That won’t do. You have to go. Come with me!”

However, Wu Zeqing said, “Alright, let’s wait til tomorrow. Wait for me to finish my work.”

Zhang Ye said loudly, “Today, right now, hurry up!”

Wu Zeqing gave a helpless smile. “If it were you, you would refuse to go to the hospital even if it kills you. But when someone else gets a little sick or uncomfortable, you go around shouting at them to go to the hospital. Alright, alright, I’ll just have to listen to my husband and go.”

Zhang Ye picked up his car keys. “That’s the way. Let’s go.”

They left and drove the car straight to the hospital.

On the way, Zhang Ye even called someone for help. One of Yao Jiancai’s relatives was an executive at the hospital, so they managed to skip the registration process.

Analysis.

Checkups.

A series of tests were conducted.

When they received the results, Zhang Ye and Wu Zeqing were both shocked!

Old Wu was pregnant!

Zhang Ye was stunned. “Ah?”

Wu Zeqing carefully rubbed her stomach. “Are you sure?”

The doctor smiled and said, “I’m sure. Congratulations.”

Zhang Ye exclaimed, “Oh wow!”

Wu Zeqing also laughed. “Be quiet, we’re at the hospital.”

Zhang Ye quickly shut his mouth but was unable to control his excitement. He kept slapping his thigh, unsure of how to express his happiness. “So my wife isn’t sick or something, right?”

The doctor laughed and said, “No, your wife is in good health. The signs of fatigue and dizziness are normal symptoms of any pregnancy. From now on, pay more attention to getting her enough rest and her diet.”

Zhang Ye grabbed the doctor’s hand. “Thank you! Thank you, Doctor Liu!”

They left the hospital.

Zhang Ye drove Old Wu home.

On the road, he was laughing happily in the car and quickly informed his parents about the news.

Old Wu was also smiling as she called her parents.

…

Noon.

At the villa.

When the couple stepped through the door, both their parents immediately rushed over. All of them were looking really happy and surprised!

Wu Changhe was overjoyed. “You’re really pregnant?”

Zhang Ye rolled his eyes. “Dad, why would it be fake?”

Li Qinqin quickly said, “Let me look at the test results, let me look at the test results!”

Zhang Ye’s mother grabbed the lab test results and looked through them with Li Qinqin.

Then the two of them beamed and said, “It’s real!”

Zhang Ye’s father was also very excited. “Great! This is great! Great!”

Li Qinqin’s eyes suddenly reddened and tears almost spilled out. “Our Zeqing is quite a bit older than Little Ye. Considering her age, I was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to conceive. But now, all that worry has poofed away! There’s nothing to be worried about anymore!”

This news had come too suddenly for them. Zhang Ye and Wu Zeqing were not prepared at all. The parents of the two families were not mentally prepared for it either. This surprise had dropped on them from the sky, but it left them very happy!

Then Old Wu was surrounded by the family.

“Zeqing, you must start paying attention to what you eat!”

“Right, don’t eat any more spicy foods!”

“You are at an advanced maternal age, so the first trimester is very important!”

“You have to stop working overtime from now on!”

“Stop facing the computer every day as well. The radiation is too strong!”

The parents of both families surrounded Wu Zeqing and chattered away. Zhang Ye could not get a word in since he did not know anything about pregnancies, so he listened obediently and noted everything that his parents said.

Wu Zeqing smiled. “OK, I understand.”

His mother was still ecstatic over the news. “This is great, this is really great!”

Li Qinqin smiled. “Congratulations, in-law. You’re going to be a grandmother.”

His mother said, “I should be congratulating you instead. You’re going to be a grandmother.”

Wu Zeqing sat there calmly. It was obvious that she was very happy as well. She glanced at her watch and then stood up, saying, “It’s already noon. I should start making lunch.”

Zhang Ye immediately shouted, “Stay right there!”

Wu Zeqing looked back. “Hur hur, why?”

Zhang Ye stared. “Sit down and don’t move. From now on, you don’t have to do any chores. Leave all of that to me. It’s time for this bro to show what he can do!”

Wu Zeqing said, “But I can still move. I’m still not that far into the pregnancy.”

Zhang Ye said, “No, I’ll do the cooking!”

“Leave it to me. You can chat with Mom and Dad.”

Zhang Ye said, “Don’t you worry about it, I’ll do it!”

“Can you even cook?”

The two of them argued over who should do the cooking.

Zhang Ye’s mother exclaimed, “Enough, enough, let me do it!”

Hearing that, Zhang Ye did not even hesitate. “Alright then, let my mother do the cooking.”

His mother nearly fainted from anger. “Whoa, you’re just gonna throw me under the bus?”

Everyone laughed, “Hahahahaha!”
