Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 2696 - 2632: You’ve Gone Too Far
Previously on Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s...
"You mean Shuangshuang is not seriously injured? No other injuries?"
"That is correct," Doctor Chen responded. "However, Miss Lu is now facing another issue that warrants attention."
"What issue?" Old Master Lu’s brow furrowed as he directed a displeased gaze at Doctor Chen, clearly irked by the physician’s initial hesitation. He wanted a direct answer.
Doctor Chen gathered his resolve and spoke plainly.
"Miss Lu is already two months pregnant. Possibly as a result of recent events, the fetus is currently unstable and at risk of miscarriage. Therefore, it would be best for Miss Lu to be admitted to the hospital for fetal protection moving forward!"
His declaration plunged the room into a chilling silence.
Everyone present seemed to have misheard, caught in a moment of stunned disbelief.
This included Jiang Shiheng, Old Master Jiang, Old Master Lu, and Lu Junyou.
In unison, like automatons, their gazes shifted from one person to another: Lu Shuangshuang, then Jiang Shiheng, then Old Master Lu, and finally back to Lu Shuangshuang.
What was happening?
Lu Shuangshuang was pregnant?
And two months along?
Just two months prior, Jiang Liu hadn't even been brought back yet.
Two months ago, Lu Shuangshuang wasn’t in D State, nor was she at the Jiang Family residence.
She was at the Lu Family home!
Old Master Jiang remained utterly dumbfounded by this revelation for a considerable time.
Eventually, it was Old Master Lu who shattered the peculiar quiet.
"Doctor Xiao Chen! One can eat carelessly, but words should not be spoken carelessly! My Shuangshuang is still unmarried; what nonsensical claims are you making? Are you even a qualified doctor?"
Subjected to such an interrogation and reprimand, Chen Yiping felt a surge of indignation.
A pregnancy pulse possesses a distinct characteristic compared to other pulse types, and typically, it is not easily misdiagnosed. It was precisely because the situation was so astonishing that he had confirmed the diagnosis three times.
The results remained consistent on all three occasions; how could they question his medical competency?
While many individuals in the room might possess greater accomplishments in business or politics, in matters of medicine, he considered himself unparalleled among them.
"If Old Master Lu doubts my diagnosis, he is welcome to take Miss Lu to another hospital for a follow-up examination. However, I must first state that Miss Lu’s fetus is indeed unstable. Therefore, even if you transfer her to a hospital, extreme caution is advised, and the vehicle should not exceed a moderate speed."
"So, Shuangshuang, she... is actually pregnant?" Jiang Qiuyan finally managed to regain her voice.
The news was so staggering it had nearly frightened her to death.
They had all believed that Lu Shuangshuang had faithfully awaited the Sixth Young Master for two decades, living a life of simplicity and dedicating herself solely to charitable deeds.
Furthermore, it was widely understood that she had remained pure for the Sixth Young Master.
Both Lu Shuangshuang and the Lu Family had consistently perpetuated this narrative.
Yet now, she was supposedly two months pregnant!
Carrying another man’s child, how could she dare to confront the Jiang Family and even press for a marriage with the Sixth Young Master?
What sheer audacity! What shamelessness!
Did this imply they expected their Sixth Young Master to raise another man’s offspring?
"This is utterly preposterous! You are simply outrageous!" Fourth Master Jiang struck the table with such force that the cups resting upon it jumped.
"Precisely! This is far too excessive! Miss Lu is already pregnant, and you still expect Xiao Liu to marry her? What is truly going on here? Old Master Lu, surely an explanation is warranted for this situation?" Even Old Master Jiang could not restrain his anger and voiced his outrage.
