Dr. Jiang Is Pregnant With His Nemesis’s Child

Chapter 34



After breakfast, Jiang Xu went to work in the study as usual. When Shen Fangyu moved in, Jiang Xu’s study and desk were divided in two and became an office for two people.


But even after finishing his work, he still didn’t see Shen Fangyu coming over.


Jiang Xu looked at his watch and found that it was noon, and he frowned slightly.


Shen Fangyu’s workaholic characteristics were not inferior to him in the slightest, as long as he was at home, it does not take long for Shen Fangyu to appear in the study, except for when he is sleeping.


He opened the door to see what Shen Fangyu had been doing all morning. As a result, he saw a messy kitchen, and Shen Fangyu carrying a plate of black unknown lumps.


Jiang Xu: “…”


He never expected Shen Fangyu to be so persistent.


“You came out?” Shen Fangyu said, “It’s just in time, I was going to call you.” He put down the plate and pointed to it, “It just came out of the pot, check out my masterpiece.”


He gave Jiang Xu a pair of chopsticks, his face was full of pride, and he almost had the words “praise me” written all over his face.


Jiang Xu didn’t know where Shen Fangyu’s confidence came from for him to actually call this kind of thing a masterpiece without a change in expression or heartbeat.


Last time, when Shen Fangyu said that the words “Hell Bar” were not good-looking, Jiang Xu felt that Shen Fangyu might have some good aesthetics, but now, he was convinced there was something wrong with Shen Fangyu’s eyes.


“What is this?” He finally couldn’t help but ask, “a bomb? ”


“Can’t you see it?” Shen Fangyu said, “Tiger skin green pepper.”


People’s tiger skin green pepper have black stripes on their bodies, and African tigers don’t have a uniform and thorough color…


Jiang Xu took a deep breath and planned to order takeout for lunch.


Shen Fangyu did not have the slightest consciousness that his cooking skills were disliked, he clamped a piece of tiger skin green pepper into Jiang Xu’s bowl, “The amount of seasoning and water is all accurately weighed according to the recipes on the Internet. I was accurate to two decimal places, so the taste should be fine.”


The ability to control the fire was too poor, even if it was accurate to a hundred decimal places, I am afraid that it will not be able to ascend to the heavens.


“Do you want a taste?” Shen Fangyu looked at him expectantly.


Jiang Xu glanced at the black lumps in the bowl suspiciously and said cautiously, “You eat first.”


“Alright.”


Shen Fangyu took a piece at his words, took a big bite, and savored it carefully for a while, and then the smile slowly froze on his face.


Jiang Xu helplessly watched the confidence on Shen Fangyu’s face gradually disappear, and his expression even showed a little panic.


Fortunately, there was a problem with the eyes, and the tongue was fine.


Jiang Xu breathed a sigh of relief.


“What is this?” Shen Fangyu looked at the half-eaten tiger skin green pepper in disbelief, and repeated Jiang Xu’s question.


“Tiger skin green pepper,” Jiang Xu finished reading his expression and slowly added: “You said it yourself.”


Shen Fangyu went silent. He spat out the contents in his mouth onto a paper towel, poured the tiger skin green pepper in Jiang Xu’s bowl back to the plate, and finally sent the entire plate of unknown objects into the trash.


“This is also too unpalatable,” Shen Fangyu squatted in front of the trash can, looking rather depressed and frustrated, “It’s not scientific, I always got full marks in the experimental class when I was in school.” ”


“Concentrated sulfuric acid dehydration and carbonization experiments?” After casually mocking Shen Fangyu, Jiang Xu waited for Shen Fangyu’s retort but didn’t get one. The man who was in high spirits just now was staring at the trash can in despair, motionless, as if he had received a huge blow.


Jiang Xu suddenly felt a little guilty.


Did he take it too far?


The harsh words that had come to his mouth swirled and were swallowed back. He walked to Shen Fangyu, patted his shoulder, and dug through his mind to find comforting words: “Actually…”


“Jiang Xu, you wait for me,” Shen Fang stood up abruptly, “I’ll do it again.”


Jiang Xu took a step back in fright, and said with a question mark on his face: “What did you say?”


“You wait a while, I’ll do it again,” Shen Fangyu repeated. Just like countless times in the laboratory, he frowned slightly and said: “I think I know what the problem is.” ”


Sure enough, Shen Fangyu did not deserve sympathy.


Jiang Xu glanced at the clock, and felt that his stomach really couldn’t wait, the little guilt disappeared in an instant, and the harsh words that were swallowed back finally came out smoothly, “I still want to live a few more years.” ”


“But—”


“Your daughter also wants to live a few more years.” Jiang Xu interrupted his struggle expressionlessly.


Shen Fangyu: “…”


Perhaps Jiang Xu’s words stimulated Shen Fangyu, or if he finally realized that he really didn’t have much talent for cooking, he let out a long sigh and said to Jiang Xu: “Let’s go! Let’s go out to eat.”


The two found a normal restaurant in the mall near their home, and quickly had some lunch. Jiang Xu’s eyes and heart which were injured by the tiger skin green pepper were finally relieved a little.


“Is it delicious?” Shen Fangyu looked at the plates and bowls that Jaing Xu had emptied with grievance.


Jiang Xu was silent for a brief moment and then he nodded.


Shen Fangyu stood up abruptly. Jiang Xu stretched out his hand to grab him, and asked cautiously: “What are you going to do?”


“Learn the art of cooking.”


“…” Jiang Xu stood up immediately and directly dragged the person out of the restaurant, saying solemnly: “Shen Fangyu, there is really no need to force things you have no talent in.”


Blowing up his kitchen was fine, if he blew up the back kitchen of someone’s restaurant… Jiang Xu did not want to be on social news.


“Jiang Xu,” Shen Fangyu was unconvinced, “Do you believe it or not, sooner or later, I’ll make your favorite dish, the kind that can make you think of me as soon as you hear the name. ”


Jiang Xu pointed to the home furnishing store that was having a sale, “I suggest you buy a good pillow.”


You are dreaming.


Shen Fangyu followed his hand and looked over, his gaze suddenly froze, and after a long time, his eyes lit up, “Jiang Xu, look!” Shen Fangyu pointed to the shop next to the furnishing store with glee.


Jiang Xu looked over in confusion, and by the time he came to his senses, they had actually walked to a baby products store.


This store should be newly opened, all kinds of flower baskets were placed outside the store, and there are many salespeople who were promoting the store. Through the glass window, you could also see all kinds of cute little toys inside and small clothes, it was like a world of Lilliput.


*Lilliput is a fictional island in the book Gulliver Travels where the people are tiny.


Shen Fangyu asked Jiang Xu: “Do you want to take a look?” ”


Jiang Xu has never visited such a store.


It stands to reason that they had already decided to have the baby, so it was fine to visit this kind of store, but Jiang Xu felt a little strange, especially now that he was accompanied by another person.


However, the nervous Shen Fangyu did not notice his subtle expression. After stopping for a moment, an enthusiastic saleswoman had already greeted him and began to talk about the store. Shen Fangyu even talked to her about the various promotional activities of the new store.


Jiang Xu glanced at Shen Fangyu, who was talking, and the saleswoman quickly included Jiang Xu in the topic: “Are you two together?” ”


Shen Fangyu nodded.


“That’s great, buy two pieces of the same product and you get a 12% discount,” the saleswoman said with a smile: “There are many mothers who come together to buy things for their children, and it is the first time that I have seen two fathers buying things together. If one of you sees something he likes, it can be discounted. Your children will also be happy when playing together, so don’t be afraid to grab any toys.”


She felt that Jiang Xu and Shen Fangyu were buying things for their respective children, just like many mothers who came shopping together.


Shen Fangyu noticed and explained with a smile: “We are buying for the same child.”


“Oh, I misunderstood,” the saleswoman quickly said, “So who are you two buying for?” She saw that the two of them looked quite young, “Is it a relative’s child or a younger sibling? By the second child and third child, the next children are born when the siblings are already adults.”


“My daughter.” The two said in unison.


The saleswoman was stunned, realizing that the plot might be a bit mysterious. She quickly bit the tip of her tongue and swallowed back the nonsense she almost blurted out: Are your daughters the same person?


She looked at the two well-dressed and slender men, they looked like social elites at a first glance. Then she remembered the heroine who held the hands of two men in a certain Qiong Yao drama and said to them, “You are both fathers to the child” (The heroine in the drama was speaking), and fell silent.

*Qiong Yao dramas are movies/soaps produced by Chen Ce, a Taiwanese writer, and producer.(Qiong Yao is her pen name).

She wondered what kind of woman could make such two great men rush to be fathers to her child.


Shen Fangyu was unaware of her thoughts, and all his attention was on Jiang Xu at this moment. The new battlefield had allowed him to temporarily come out of the frustration of failing to cook.


“If you won’t go in, then I’ll go in and look around myself,” Shen Fangyu’s eyes ignited a high fighting spirit again: “After all, I am the father who loves her the most.”


Good, really good, we shall see about that.


Jiang Xu could even imagine the picture of Shen Fangyu holding the child and asking, “Do you prefer this father or that father”.


Very reliable.


Why was this kid his and Shen Fangyu’s?


Jiang Xu said “impossible” expressionlessly, and then walked into the store without looking back, immediately going towards the most expensive stroller.


He loved his daughter the most, and at this point, he absolutely cannot lose to Shen Fangyu.


The saleswoman saw that Jiang Xu, whom she had failed to persuade into entering the store even with all her flowery words, started a consumption retaliation against Shen Fangyu after just a few words, and sighed while being stunned.


She wondered if it was a family’s misfortune or a family’s double luck…


The two fathers-to-be competed to buy things, and the purchasing power did not need her to put in any effort, she only needed to occasionally explain with one or two sentences.


‘This is good,’ the saleswoman thought. As long as they were willing to spend money on things, it didn’t matter if they were putting on green hats, all that mattered was that they were happy.


Jiang Xu and Shen Fangyu, who frantically stuffed things into the shopping basket, did not know the saleswoman’s thoughts at all, and were still comparing which father loved the child more.


In the first round, Shen Fangyu went in front of the Barbie doll’s shelf. He picked out the finalists, and sent them into the shopping cart one by one to make their debut. When he turned around, he saw Jiang Xu picking a bunch of educational toys, such as building blocks, nine links, Rubik’s cubes, and Kong Ming lock toys, filling half of the shopping cart in minutes.

*Can’t describe so I will just include pics will be below.

In the second round, Shen Fangyu stuffed a set of exquisite princess castles into his shopping cart. He looked up and happened to bump into Jiang Xu who was taking down a huge box of puzzles.


In the third round, before Shen Fangyu could make a move, he saw a pile of early education books that Jiang Xu had moved off the shelves.


Shen Fangyu, who was full of black lines, finally couldn’t bear it anymore, and wondered: “Why are you buying so many books?”


“To promote intellectual development,” Jiang Xu said, “lest she grows into something like you.” ”


“Hey, what’s wrong with my intelligence?” Shen Fangyu retorted: “When I was a child, I didn’t read such books but I managed to take the top positions while playing.”


“And look at those educational toys.” Shen Fangyu picked up the box of puzzles, pointed to the huge number “1000” on it, and said to Jiang Xu: “A thousand-piece jigsaw puzzle, do you want your daughter to cry?”


He then pointed to those books again, “No child likes these, and if you don’t put yourself in the other’s place, it means only I really love her.”


Jiang Xu rolled his eyes at him, “that’s called pampering.” After speaking, he took more books and put them into the shopping cart without any objection.


When the two of them finally calmed down from the dizzying competitive atmosphere, the shopping cart was already filled with all kinds of toys and books. Shen Fangyu had even picked an electric car for a five-year-old child, with gaudy bells and whistles hanging from it.


……


After a moment of silence, Shen Fangyu silently took the electric car back under Jiang Xu’s gaze.


When he returned, Jiang Xu was going through his shopping basket again. He stuffed some toys that seemed to be potential safety hazards back to Shen Fangyu, who wanted to refute at first, but Jiang Xu could always come up with thousands of reasons to make the toys he chose useless, as if his daughter would see Yama a day after playing with them.


In the end, Shen Fangyu even fell into doubt, and when he looked at those toys, his heart also began to worry. He looked at Jiang Xu’s familiarity with several things and suspected that Jiang Xu was not an obstetrician, but a pediatrician.


After shopping around the toy area, the two of them went to the clothing area.


Children’s clothes in small sizes were neatly hung on the shelves. They looked so cute, and the styles were also very rich, not at all inferior to adult clothing stores. All kinds of designs were available, and various cartoon character prints were common.


Jiang Xu walked to the plainest color, looked at the fabric composition table word by word as if studying an academic paper, and carefully inquired with the saleswoman beside him.


He was unsmiling the whole time and even had a slight frown, his attitude was particularly serious, and his temperament made the saleswoman have the illusion that she was doing a graduation defense again, so much that after answering his question tremblingly, she was so nervous that a layer of sweat broke out on her back.


In the end, Jiang Xu finally chose a few sets of clothes with extremely safe ingredients, and a style that would never strangle the baby. Just when he was about to put them in the shopping cart, Shen Fangyu suddenly threw a bunch of colorful little clothes inside. They were of all kinds of brilliant colors and complex decorations, much like the princess dresses in cartoons.


He also evaluated the clothes in Jiang Xu’s hand, “Don’t buy this, it’s dirty, it’s not good at all. Little girls love beauty, don’t put on a bunch of white vest jumpsuits as if she is an old man. ”


Jiang Xu frowned and took out the pile of small skirts from the shopping cart and stuffed them back into Shen Fangyu’s hands, “There are potential safety hazards.”


Those beautiful dresses either had small diamonds or lace, children’s skin is so tender, if one is not careful, they will have allergic reactions. Clothes that are too colorful fade quickly and clothes with too heavy dyes are not good for children’s skin.


“Toys should not be bought, and beautiful clothes should not be bought.”


Shen Fangyu pointed to the thick pile of early education books in the shopping basket, “You bought her so many books before she is born, how will she behave like a normal child when she is born? You can’t expect her to read a thousand words at the age of three, memorize Tang poems at the age of four, learn calculus at the age of five, and go to Qingbei university at the age of six?” He said, “If I were your daughter, I wouldn’t even want to be born.”


Jiang Xu felt that education should start right at the start, he has never been worse than others in his own studies, so it is naturally impossible for his child to remain idle all day.


However, Shen Fangyu, who was also the number one scholar in City B, was diametrically opposed to him.


Under the evaluation system of ordinary people, he has reached the peak of his studies. He joined university with the highest admission score in the domestic college entrance examination, and he has also obtained a doctoral degree.


He was not like many adults who hoped for their sons to become dragons and daughters to become phoenixes, pinning their unfulfilled wishes on their children. He has seen the scenery at the top, so he feels that children do not have to be so good, it is better to have an easy and relaxed life.


With a huge disagreement ahead, Shen Fangyu proposed: “Let’s buy things separately and see whose things she likes most.”


“Don’t even think about it,” Jiang Xu guessed Shen Fangyu’s attitude toward raising children from his remarks, and said with a serious face: “I warn you, don’t think about blindly pampering the child in the future.”


“Anyway, I am the one raising the child,” Shen Fangyu said, “You don’t have to worry about it.” ”


Jiang Xu glanced at him with a complicated expression, and then asked in a slow tone, “When did I say that you will raise her alone?”


Below is an example of a  kong ming lock toy.




This is an unfinished nine links toy. A traditional intellectual toy originating from China. You play by trying to remove or put the nine rings on the “sword” like in the second pic.
