I'm Pregnant with the Villain's Child

Chapter 309 – Do you see me as your son, or do you still think that Mom cheated on you, and I’m a b*stard child? (1)

After coming out of Butler Lu’s room, Lu Beichuan was still frowning. He had guessed that Old Master Lu’s health wasn’t good, but he hadn’t thought it was at the stage of beyond curing.

In the late stage of liver cancer, Old Master Lu was planning his funeral arrangements.

“How is it?” Ye Zhen greeted him as soon as he came back. Seeing Lu Beichuan’s solemn expression, she inwardly sighed. “It’s real then?”

Lu Beichuan sighed and nodded.

“He shouldn’t delay any further. Let’s take him to the hospital for treatment!”

Lu Beichuan took off his jacket and loosen his tie. “It’s terminal liver cancer. Grandpa doesn’t want to go to the hospital.”

“Terminal!” Ye Zhen was shocked. “How could that be? He has a regular check up every year. How did the doctors not find it earlier?”

“Grandpa hasn’t gone for a checkup in the past two years.” Lu Beichuan glanced at the bed. Zhouzhou was sleeping there. He lowered his voice, “Pay more attention to Grandpa in the next two days. If anything happens, tell me immediately.”

“Okay.”

Lu Beichuan walked over to the bed, leaned over, and wiped Zhouzhou’s sweaty forehead. Zhouzhou was in pajamas and covered by a thin blanket. “Why is he sweating so much?”

“He was fussing earlier. He fell asleep after drinking a bottle of warm milk. Kids have a fast metabolism. The doctor said it’s normal for him to sweat more. It’s not a big deal.”

“Alright, it’s late. Go take a shower and go to sleep early.”

She hadn’t rested almost all day. By now, Ye Zhen was tired. She turned and went to the bathroom.

Lu Beichuan dried Zhouzhou’s sweaty hair, gently picked him, and was about to put him down in the crib.

However, Zhouzhou woke up as soon as he was picked up. He sleepily opened his eyes, yawned, and stretched in his dad’s arms.

Lu Beichuan didn’t move. When Zhouzhou’s eyes were half-opened, he saw Lu Beichuan through his blurry eyes. He mumbled, “Dad,” before closing his eyes and going back to sleep.

With his head resting on Lu Beichuan’s chest, he mumbled, “Want to sleep with Dad.”

There was the sound of running water from the bathroom. Lu Beichuan lowered his head to look at the sweetly sleeping Zhouzhou and put him back on the bed.

As soon as Zhouzhou touched the bed, he rolled over without conscious thought.

Lu Beichuan covered him with the blanket, leaned over, and kissed him on the forehead.

“Beichuan, I didn’t bring…” The sound of falling water had gotten louder. Ye Zhen had opened the door and poked her head out from the bathroom. She happened to see this scene.

Lu Beichuan stiffened. He slowly got up. Pretending that nothing had happened, he turned and looked at Ye Zhen “… What?”

Ye Zhen looked at the floundering Lu Beichuan. She didn’t expose him. She requested with a smile, “Please bring me the essential oil.”

Lu Beichuan passed the essential oil to her. Seeing Ye Zhen’s amused gaze, he turned around to pretend to deal with the non-existent documents on the desk.

Next morning, after breakfast, Ye Zhen coaxed Zhouzhou, who was lazing about on the sofa, to go to the playroom to exercise.

The doctor had said that it would be beneficial for Zhouzhou’s health and development if he was more active.

However, if this kid could lie down, he would never sit. If he could sit, he would never stand. He liked to laze about. He wouldn’t move unless his dad sternly raised his voice. She had no idea who he took after to have this lazy temperament.

Right after Ye Zhen had this thought, Lu Shaoyan came over. As soon as his butt touched the sofa, he comfortably lay down. He looked over Ye Zhen and said, “It’s so cold today. The baby animals are staying at home. Who wants to go out to exercise, right Zhouzhou?

As he said this, he held Zhouzhou’s little foot and winked at him.
