Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

During the ultrasound, the display screen reflected a curled up embryo.

The doctor said, “It's been three months. The child has not taken form but once you reach five months and above, you would be able to see a clearer outline.”

Mu Tongrui lay on the bed and looked at the image. In a soft tone, she asked, “Doctor, is he good?”

“He's doing well. But your progesterone level appeared to be on the low side and you need to take care. Have you been eating?”

Aunt Lan responded, “Young Mistress tends to vomit most of the food she takes in. She has even lost weight.”

“This is perfectly normal and you don't have to worry. Eat and sleep when you have to and take a stroll once in a while. The most important thing is to remain happy.”

After a while, the doctor said, “Ok, you can get up now.”

After the check-up was over, they collected their medications and left.

When they were at the entrance of the hospital, Mu Tongrui suddenly had the urge to visit the washroom, “Aunt Lan, I need the washroom. Wait for me.”

“Do you need me to accompany you?”

“No need. I'll be back in a jiffy.”

Mu Tongrui scoured the first level for a washroom and finally found the ladies room after much effort.

When she finally came out of the ladies room, she bumped into someone in the hospital lobby.

A long slender hand supported her. Mu Tongrui was about to thank the person when she looked up to find the handsome and familiar face.

“Ling... Lingye..!”

Fu Xiao frowned slightly and loosened his grip on her, “Sorry.”

He nodded lightly. With an icy look he turned to leave.

Mu Tongrui froze for a second before she chased after him, “Lingye! Lingye!”

Mu Tongrui ran after him and caught his hand. In her excitement, she sounded incoherent, “You... You're alive! Lingye... I knew you'd be fine! That's wonderful... you're still alive... I've missed you so much... You...”

Before she could finish her sentence, the man peeled away her hands and spoke to her calmly, “Miss, you've got the wrong person.”

His eyes did not hold a hint of recognition.
