"You are really pregnant? What are we going to do? I really need to deal with that imbecile and his family. No, I can do that later. Now we need to talk about you and your baby," old man Jiang could not stop talking.
"Dad you need to calm down. First I want to take Renxiang to the hospital for a test. Then we will focus on her health and help her get through the pregnancy as she has not experienced such a thing," Jiang Meilin explained.
"Oh alright. Take Charlie with you and be careful," old man Jiang cautioned them. He did not want his granddaughter to hurt herself as it would hurt his great-grandchild. Yes, that is right. He would soon become someone\'s great-grandfather. How pleasurable will it be to have a child running about in the house and calling him great-gramps. Oh how delighted he was at the moment.
"Okay Dad. We will head out now. Do not think too much and rest well, okay?" Jiang Meilin warned him with a slightly stern voice. Her father needs an iron hand on him or else he will remain as stubborn as ever. Grandpa Jiang called Charlie to take a car and a driver to escort Jiang Meilin and Bai Renxiang to the hospital. He wanted to mistake or harm to befall his daughter and granddaughter. Since there is a new life joining them, he needs to be extra careful as his enemies were lurking in the dark, looking for the right time to strike.
Jiang Meilin and Bai Renxiang had gotten to the hospital and had taken an appointment to see the doctor. Bai Renxiang was nervous at what the results might be. Has she been pregnant for long? If yes, then how long? She kept questioning herself in her mind. Jiang Meilin had assured her everything will be fine but she still could not help it.
"Were you not scared or nervous when you were pregnant with me?" Bai Renxiang asked her mother who had a calm and composed expression on her face. "Yes, but not like you. I mean that time I was ready and married and fully prepared for it. But in your case, you are still young and not experienced in everything. So it is understandable." Jiang Meilin reminisced about the time when she was pregnant with Bai Renxiang in her mind. She was scared to be precise but with the caring Bai Guiren\'s support and love, she made it through. But since her daughter was not fortunate enough to even know the father of her unborn child not to even talk of him being there to support her, Jiang Meilin decided to be there for her instead.
"Just take deep breaths, okay? Remember, I am right best you. I will hold your hands if that will make you feel better?" Jiang Meilin was doing everything possible to take Bai Renxiang\'s mind of the result of the test which they had yet to perform or had not even seen the doctor too.
It was now time for them to meet the doctor in seat. The doctor was a woman and this made Bai Renxiang\'s nervousness calm down a bit. The doctor welcomed them with a polite and professional smile.
"I can see I have a beautiful and nervous patient today. Welcome , please have a seat," the doctor said to reeduce the tension building up in the patient\'s mind. "So how may I help you Miss?" The doctor asked. She still had that warm professional smile on her face.
"Goodday ma\'am. I want to have a pregnancy test for my daughter and any other test to be sure she is healthy enough to carry the child and if maybe some do\'s and don\'ts," Jiang Meilin spoke up.
"Oh alright. You should get the test done first and if you are up for it, we can do an ultrasound to see the foetus."
"We will do everything you say doctor," Jiang Meilin agreed. Bai Renxiang had been listening attentively to what the two women were discussing. She also wanted to see her baby. After the test, they had to wait for the result. So while they were waiting, the doctor did an ultrasound.
"Do you see that tiny dot-like thing there?" The doctor asked while pointing towards the screen.
"Oh my goodness. It is so small," Bai Renxiang exclaimed. It was her first time seeing something like that. In fact it was her first time for everything. "Is the baby okay? I mean is it supposed to be so small? Is it healthy?" She bombarded the doctor with loads of questions.
Chuckling at her obvious fear, the doctor assured her that everything was normal. "Relax, that is what every developing foetus begins with before they start forming into a real baby. Aside from that, the test and you have taken will determine the health status of you and the child."
