Chapter 224: Slipping
Though the president didn’t know what had happened, he noticed Gu Zijin ran out after answering Qin Xiaobai’s phone call.
Therefore, he followed Gu Zijin out hastily. If something had happened to Qin Xiaobai in the school, their cooperation might have been cancelled.
As soon as Gu Zijin hurried out, he saw Qin Muxuan sat on a bench and clenched her belly. Her face was bloodless.
It turned out that Qin Xiaobai called Gu Zijin directly because Qin Muxuan felt pain in her abdomen after slipping.
After Gu Zijin, the head craned forward to see what had happened. When he found Qin Muxuan’s pallid countenance, he immediately flung open the door to his car and was ready to drive her to the hospital.
“You’ll be fine. We are going to the hospital.” Gu Zijin lifted Qin Muxuan up, putting her in the backseat.
As soon as Qin Xiaobai jumped into the car, the president stamped on the accelerator and the car rushed forward.
Qin Muxuan huddled in Gu Zijin’s arms, grasping his clothes. Sweat covered her forehead.
Feeling a twinge, she said feebly. “Gu Zijin, I have an awful feeling. Will our baby…” Tears welled up in Qin Muxuan’s eyes. If she had been more careful, she wouldn’t have slipped. She would be regretful if her baby didn’t survive.
“Don’t worry. Trust me. Everything’s gonna be okay. Our baby will be safe and sound.” Gu Zijin was afraid, but he couldn’t show it. He wiped off the sweat from Qin Muxuan’s brow, comforting her.
It took them more than ten minutes to arrive there. Qin Muxuan was wheeled into the emergency room. Gu Zijin was about to follow her in there, but was stopped by a nurse.
“Sorry, you have to wait outside.” After finishing her words, the nurse closed the door.
Gu Zijin watched the door shut in front of him. The light board of the emergency room turned red.
“Dad, Dabai’s gonna be fine, right?” Qin Xiaobai pulled Gu Zijin’s clothes with red eyes.
“Don’t worry. She will be fine.” Gu Zijin stroked the kid’s head, comforting his son.
The father and son sat on the bench before the E. R. Gu Zijin fixed his eyes on the door. He hoped the doctor would step out the next second and tell him that Qin Muxuan and their baby were safe and sound.
However, Gu Zijin hotched as time fled.
The light board went out when he became more fidgety. Opening the door, a doctor stepped out. “Who’s the patient’s family?”
“I am. How is she now? Is the baby all right?” Gu Zijin instantly strode forward, asking.
“The mother and baby are safe. The gravida has been influenced by the environment. She should be hospitalized for three days. If there’s nothing serious, she could be discharged.” The doctor said in an official tone.
“Thank you.” Hearing the news, Gu Zijin felt relieved.
Qin Muxuan was wheeled from the E. R. to an ordinary ward after a few minutes.
When she became conscious, Qin Muxuan was transferred into a private VIP ward with the help of Gu Zijin. She asked about her baby as soon as she opened her eyes.
“Don’t worry. Our baby is healthy. The doctor said you should be hospitalized for three days, then we can go home.” Gu Zijin held Qin Muxuan’s hands.
Hearing his words, Qin Muxuan sighed with relief.
“Sorry, Dabai. I didn’t protect you.” Qin Xiaobai repented, ‘If I could pay more attention to Dabai, she wouldn’t have slipped.’
“It’s not your fault, Xiaobai. I won’t blame you.” Qin Muxuan didn’t intend to reproach Xiaobai. Nodding, the kid asked his mother to have a good rest.
Since Xiaobai would go to school tomorrow, Gu Zijin asked his driver to take Qin Xiaobai back. The man stayed in the hospital to look after his loved one.
Lying on the bed, Qin Muxuan enjoyed Gu Zijin’s tenderness.
With a bowl in his hand, Gu Zijin blew on the congee which he bought downstairs to cool it off before feeding Qin Muxuan.
‘Though I have to stay in the hospital, I’m delighted when he takes care of me.’ Staring at the clumsy man before her, Qin Muxuan was cheerful.
She finally realized that Gu Zijin had always been thoughtful, though sometimes he was bossy.
“What’s wrong? Does your belly hurt?” Noticing that Qin Muxuan was peering at him, Gu Zijin suddenly tensed up.
“I’m okay. I just feel sleepy.” After all these, Qin Muxuan was exhausted.
Gu Zijin observed that she wasn’t uncomfortable, so he put the bowl away and lowered the bed’s height. “Have a sweet dream. I will stay here.”
The man held the woman’s hands.
Nodding, Qin Muxuan closed her eyes. Though she was in the hospital, she slept soundly.
When she woke up, she found Gu Zijin fell asleep near the bed. Her hands were grasped by him. She slightly moved her arms, but wakened Gu Zijin.
“Hey, are you hungry? I’ll ask Lisa to buy you some food.” Checking the time, Gu Zijin noticed it was time for a meal.
Qin Muxuan only had some congee, so her tummy was empty. “Yeah.” She nodded, and then asked, “Why does Lisa stay here?”
After all, Lisa was Gu Zijin’s assistant, but now even had to run errands for her.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
However, Gu Zijin took it for granted. Stuff in the company had been settled, so Lisa was free now. “It’s okay. I will double her salary.”
Qin Muxuan was helpless. She gave up the intention to stop him.
At home, Qin Xiaobai sat at the table. Poking rice with his chopsticks, he lost his appetite. ‘Dabai’s hospitalized. I can’t have meals in KFC.’
“Little Master, what’s wrong? Isn’t the dinner to your liking?” Noticing Qin Xiaobai ate a little, Nanny Xu was worried.
Hearing her words, Qin Xiaobai was more depressed. He pouted, “The food is tasty, but I lose my appetite.” Burgers and chicken of KFC had occupied Qin Xiaobai’s mind. How could he have a good appetite?
