Just as Xu Yi took a step, his foot slipped, almost causing him to tumble.
Spinning around, he sprinted back toward Mrs. Hong, “What? Mrs. Hong, did I hear it wrong? Could you repeat?”
“I said, Madam is pregnant! Look, she’s almost a month along!” Mrs. Hong held up the medical report, her face beaming with a radiant smile.
Both the butler and Xu Yi eagerly craned their necks to see.
“Let me see, let me see. How do I read this? Where do I see the heir to this house? Which part shows the child?”
“This ultrasound here,” Mrs. Hong pointed, “this elliptical shape is the gestational sac. You can see it’s signed by Mr. Lu, confirming she’s four weeks pregnant!”
“If it’s Mr. Lu’s signature, then it must be accurate.”
The butler’s face lit up as well, “Finally, Clearcreek Mansion will have a new member. The late Master and Madam must be watching over us, blessing us!”
Unable to contain her joy, Mrs. Hong managed to admonish the butler and Xu Yi, “The first trimester is crucial. The pregnancy news must remain a secret for now. The world outside isn’t safe either, so keep your mouths shut. We can only celebrate within Clearcreek Mansion. Understand?”
“Yes, we understand,” Xu Yi nodded enthusiastically, his eyes fixated on the words in the report.
Over and over again, Xu Yi confirmed the news.
The butler was so elated he seemed to float on air. He asked, “Should we inform the servants to be extra cautious?”
Mrs. Hong frowned, “No need for now. It’s sufficient if only we are aware. From this moment on, every aspect of Madam’s life must be handled solely by us. The main residence is off-limits to the staff.”
“Understood. I’ll give the orders right away,” the butler’s eyes welled up with tears of happiness, even his steps seemed lighter than before.
Mrs. Hong went on to do what needed to be done. She summoned a few reliable people and got busy in the hall while she headed to the kitchen to prepare nourishing food for Rong Qi, determined to fortify her health.
Mrs. Hong had the most experience among the staff in Clearcreek Mansion, having served the late Madam during the birth of Ye Nanshen. Her knowledge in this area was extensive.
However, Mrs. Hong found herself hesitating on whether to share the news with Old Mr. Ye.
Rong Qi lay asleep in bed, and Ye Nanshen covered her with a blanket. He watched her for a full ten minutes before finally heading downstairs to handle other matters.
Just as Ye Nanshen opened the door and approached the staircase, he saw that the servants had covered the floor with soft rugs, and cushioning was wrapped around each banister and table edge.
“What’s going on?” Ye Nanshen asked. His brow furrowed as he descended the stairs.
“The orders came from Mrs. Hong, sir,” a servant answered respectfully. “She instructed us to remove all breakable items from the living room and to pad the table corners.”
The more he heard, the more confused Ye Nanshen became.
Mrs. Hong emerged from the kitchen at that moment, chuckling at Ye Nanshen’s bewildered expression.
Waving the servants out of the room, Mrs. Hong took Ye Nanshen aside and whispered into his ear, “Master Shen, Madam is pregnant. Almost a month along!”
Mrs. Hong handed Ye Nanshen the report, her face still glowing with delight.
The word “pregnant” thundered like a shockwave in Ye Nanshen’s mind! His beautiful eyes lit up with amazement, joy, and disbelief.
“Really? Little Qi is really pregnant?”
Ye Nanshen unfolded the report and read through it. He thought, ‘She is pregnant. Lu Chengzhou signed it. There could be no mistake.’
A colossal wave of joy and concern washed over Ye Nanshen. So happy, yet so anxious. He wanted to share the news, yet also wished to keep it a secret.
For a moment, Ye Nanshen was flustered, unsure what to do. But the corners of his mouth curled into a deeper smile, and his eyes softened with affection and indulgence. He realized that Rong Qi had fainted because the pregnancy had weakened her!
“Little Qi is pregnant.”
Ye Nanshen’s face revealed an unabated smile as he read the report over and over again.
“Little Qi is really pregnant.” Ye Nanshen murmured.
It felt like a dream—unreal, uncertain, yet overwhelmingly delightful.
Ye Nanshen’s fingers caressed the report as his deep eyes lingered on the images and words. It felt as if his heart had been opened to a stream of sweetness. So incredibly sweet..
