52 Ch. 52 The Baby’s Gender (part 2)
According to Anxia’s request, Ling Meng contacted the obstetrician who had been checking Anxia’s pregnancy condition.
So far, the doctor has come to the house, not the other way around. But now, Anxia took the initiative to go to the doctor’s workplace.
However, because they didn’t want to risk having their faces caught on camera, Anxia and Ling Meng entered the hospital via a back street.
There was a particular path where there were only one or two cameras, and Ling Meng could hack it by freezing the camera footage.
As soon as she entered the doctor’s office, Ling Meng immediately said what they had come for, and the doctor was happy to serve them.
The doctor ordered Anxia to lie down on a long chair to perform an ultrasound examination.
Anxia obediently opened a long, wide t-shirt for pregnant women showing her big belly. Then the doctor put an instrument on Anxia’s stomach making her skin tingle.
Not long after, the doctor showed Anxia through a large monitor next to her. She looked like a miniature baby on the monitor screen. The baby curled up like a ball, making Anxia wonder how such a tiny baby could survive in her stomach.
“I can already see the gender. Do you want to know?” The doctor’s question was immediately nodded enthusiastically by Anxia and Ling Meng. “You will give birth to a daughter.”
.....
“Girl?! Gosh, we have another girl coming!”
Anxia’s lips pursed as it seemed her best friend was more excited about the birth of her daughter. The girl who was the first to exclaim with joy.
Although her expression looked sullen, but in her heart, Anxia was happy to have a daughter. At least she didn’t have to worry that she would see the man’s face in her son.
Usually, a daughter’s face looks more like her mother’s than her father, right?
Unfortunately... Anxia’s wish was completely unfulfilled because her daughter was much more like her father than she was.
After receiving notes and advice on what Anxia should do to maintain her growing fetus’s health, the two shopped for baby girl clothes at several boutique shops.
Since they no longer worked under Master Yu, they only worked as hired informants or spies for their clients. The pay was good enough to make ends meet for them, but not as big as when she worked as master Yu’s assassin.
That’s why they start to save money and be wiser in managing their finances.
Especially now, Anxia decided to take care of her daughter herself so that future expenses would be much more costly.
But for now, Anxia didn’t mind being a little extravagant. She wanted to make up for all her indifferent behavior towards her daughter and wished to spoil her baby girl-to-be.
Since that day, Anxia never once complained when Ling Meng made her healthy vegetable juices and fish soup dishes that she didn’t like.
She even listened to classical or melodious instrument songs that calmed her heart. She also reads positive books interspersed with children’s books filled with pictures and colors.
And as usual, every time Anxia asked her baby to talk, there would be a small header from inside her womb. It seemed that her daughter really liked hearing her mother’s voice, and even more so when Anxia spoke to her.
A few months later, it was time for Anxia to give birth. Since Anxia woke up from her nap, her stomach started hurting and making her uncomfortable.
“Meng Meng!! AAAA!” suddenly, an excruciating pain hit her lower part. It reminded her of when she had menstrual cramps, but this pain... was many times more painful.
Ugh! Even though she can stand the pain, even when she has stomach cramps during her period, she can still survive. Why can’t she stand this one?
“What is it? Why?”
“Looks like my contractions are starting to kick in!”
Hearing her best friend’s answer, Ling Meng immediately called Anxia’s obstetrician and called her friend to help her carry Anxia into the car.
Luckily, the streets were quiet that afternoon because it wasn’t time for people to leave work yet, so Anxia arrived at the hospital on time.
Even though Ling Meng was panicking and worried about her friend’s condition, she was still able to think clearly. Before they arrived at the hospital, Ling Meng had turned off all the cameras in this hospital.
Then she took Anxia through the back street, where the doctor was waiting for them. Ling Meng and her acquaintance, Evgen, a chef in a star restaurant, accompanied Anxia, who was now feeling no pain.
It seemed that this was the first contraction for Anxia, and they still had to wait for the following few contractions before Anxia gave birth.
Hearing that she would be in pain again and that it would be heavier and more painful than before, Anxia bit her lip in horror.
“Qiao Qiao, you will be fine. I’ll be here with you. Hmm?”
Evgen raised an eyebrow in surprise when he heard Ling Meng’s words.
Under normal conditions, the woman’s husband should comfort and support his pregnant wife. But instead of a husband, a friend accompanied Anxia’s difficult times.
Where is Qiao Anxia’s husband? Ah, rather, where was the person who had impregnated Qiao Anxia?
Evgen knew Anxia was an assassin, while Ling Meng was a hacker and spy from the Luen group. So he guessed that Anxia hooked up with someone one night and didn’t want to move on to a more serious relationship.
Well, that’s none of his business because Evgen was not interested in getting involved in things that contain violence.
He just happened to meet and befriend Ling Meng when she was on a mission in Moscow. Ling Meng did keep her job a secret at the beginning of their meeting, but now they were friends with benefits, and he was willing to help Ling Meng and her friend.
A few hours later...
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!”
Anxia couldn’t stop screaming because she was now in the delivery room and was giving birth to her daughter.
However, she had never expected the pain to be this great.
‘Fuck you, Richard! I’ll kill you when we meet again!!’
