Dr. Jiang Is Pregnant With His Nemesis’s Child

Chapter 40

However, Shen Fangyu, who had just stood on the same side as Jiang Xu a while ago, soon defected.

In Jiang Xu’s 20-square-meter bedroom, the surround-sound speakers were playing the theme song of “The Legend of the White Snake” on a loop from 360 degrees without dead ends. The usually quiet big bed was shaking wildly, and the headboard was creaking uncomfortably.

The two doctors scuffled on the bed, Jiang Xu was merciless, and he went straight for Shen Fangyu’s vital point. Shen Fangyu was fully focused on protecting the stereo, allowing Jiang Xu to attack his body. Although he got injured, the stereo did not fall into Jiang Xu’s hands.

“Shen Fangyu!”

Shen Fangyu had a cynical smile on his face. “Does it sound good?” ”

It all started an hour ago.

As usual, the two drove back home in different cars at the same time, and without waiting for Jiang Xu’s invitation, Shen Fangyu came to Jiang Xu’s home again as if it were his own.

The bed on the floor in the bedroom was still there, and there were more toiletries in the bathroom. Even the bath towels looked freshly washed, and they still smelled like they had been exposed to the sun.

“Did you wash the towels for me?” Shen Fangyu was quite surprised.

“It was washed in the washing machine.”

Shen Fangyu said: “So you threw it in the washing machine for me? ”

Jiang Xu glanced at him and rolled his eyes, saying, “Auntie did it.”

He hired a housekeeper to do the cleaning once a week.

Shen Fangyu wondered, “Then why didn’t auntie wash it for me last time?”

Jiang Xu gave him a blank look, and before he spoke, Shen Fangyu hugged the pink rabbit on his bed and spoke: “I’ve been sick for the past few days, did you miss me?”

“Nope.”

“I’m not asking you. I know that even if the sun comes out in the west, Dr. Jiang won’t miss me,” Shen Fangyu nuzzled the rabbit in his arms, “I’m asking this.”

He and Jiang Xu had agreed that if Jiang Xu had leg cramps at night, or had any other discomfort, he would hit him with this rabbit, and he would wake up. So after so many days like this, he and this rabbit could be regarded as having a revolutionary friendship.

Jiang Xu pulled the rabbit back and said, “Go take a bath first.”

He couldn’t go to bed without bathing, and he couldn’t touch anything on Jiang Xu’s bed, including his rabbit. Shen Fangyu pouted and took some clothes to the bathroom.

The two took turns taking showers, and as soon as Jiang Xu came out of the bathroom, he saw Shen Fangyu fiddling with something. He glanced at it and found that it was a portable stereo.

He took a towel to wipe his hair, and Shen Fangyu looked at him, as if waiting for him. Then he slowly and methodically pressed the play button on the stereo, and a familiar melody suddenly popped out. A string of “ah~~~, ah~~~” instantly filled Jiang Xu’s ears.

Jiang Xu and his parents watched “The Legend of the White Snake” many years ago. The songs in the drama were too memorable, and even though he didn’t remember the plot details that much, this series of brainwashing “ahhs” seemed to be engraved in his DNA, taking Jiang Xu back more than ten years.

The song soon reached the part with words, and Teacher Zuo Hongyuan’s vigorous and rich voice rang out:

“Beautiful view of the West Lake in March!”

“Spring rain is like wine willow, like smoke!”

**In the previous chapter, I linked a song but it was for the new version of the drama. Turns out they were talking about the theme song for the older version, so I’ve corrected that. Anyway, you can check out the version they are talking about HERE.

The song was so familiar that Jiang Xu could only bite the tip of his tongue to resist the urge to sing along. Shen Fangyu didn’t care at all, singing a few words along with the stereo, and he said to Jiang Xu: “I haven’t heard this song for a long time, I remember how this song took over my brain. But it’s strangely good to hear it again.”

At that time, Jiang Xu did not realize the seriousness of the matter and only expressed his contempt for Shen Fangyu’s behavior in submitting to Director Cui so quickly.

Unexpectedly, Shen Fangyu protected his stereo and started an hour-long loop next to Jiang Xu. Even when Jiang Xu blow-dried his hair and put the hair dryer on the highest setting, he couldn’t suppress the sound.

“Are you sick!”

Jiang Xu threw away the hair dryer to grab the stereo. The two ran around the house, and the music kept getting louder and louder like a carnival. Jiang Xu was furious, but Shen Fangyu always managed to slip away from under him. The two went on like this for most of the day and somehow ended up fighting on the bed.

Jiang Xu couldn’t bear the disturbance, he began to miss the days when Shen Fangyu was sick. At that time, he thought it was too quiet, but now he just wanted to throw Shen Fangyu out of the window with his stereo and speakers.

Sure enough, a home had to be quiet.

He shouldn’t have thought about Shen Fangyu.

After failing to grab the stereo for the third time, Jiang Xu finally lost patience, covered his ears, and got up from the bed. He smashed a pillow on Shen Fangyu’s head, and a dark storm brewed in his eyes.

“What the hell are you trying to do?”

Seeing that Jiang Xu was furious, Shen Fangyu spoke leisurely: “Promise to perform with me, and I will turn off the stereo.”

Jiang Xu looked at him with a heavy face and said, “Impossible. ”

Shen Fangyu, who was rubbing his ribs, said, “Then I’ll continue to play it.”

After he said it, he didn’t forget to add another knife: “These speakers are quite cheap, and although the sound quality is not good, their advantage is that they are loud. I knew that you might smash it, so I bought more than one, so even if you destroy this one, I can bring back another one tomorrow.”

Jiang Xu took a deep breath and began to fall into self-doubt again: why did he let Shen Fangyu live in his house?

The music was still booming in his ears:

“We have a destiny to meet thousands of miles…”

“It’s hard to hold hands when you’re not destined to meet…”

“Ten years of cultivation to cross the same boat…”

“A hundred years of cultivation to sleep together…”

What kind of evil did he do to attract this evil fate with Shen Fangyu? First, they somehow “slept together”, and then, he inexplicably became pregnant. Shen Fangyu was now threatening him in his own house.

“I’ll give you ten seconds,” Jiang Xu said. “If you don’t turn it off, I’ll leave.”

He stood by the bed with his glasses on the bridge of his nose, his sharp gaze falling on Shen Fangyu’s face through the lenses, “Ten, nine, eight…”

The music stopped.

Shen Fangyu pouted, “Little timer.”

Jiang Xu pointed to the bed on the floor and said to Shen Fangyu, who was occupying his bed, “Get down.”

Shen Fangyu got down from the bed with his stereo in hand, and he obediently lay on the bed on the floor. But as soon as he lay down, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

The stuffing under the sheets had thickened.

It was warmer and softer than before.

“…… Did Auntie also add this for me? ”

Jiang Xu turned off the bedroom light with a snap and ignored the noisy person in front of him.

————-

Ruan Xiufang was about to be discharged from the hospital; her surgery had gone smoothly and her recovery had been fast. Pathological examination after cervical conization showed negative margins, which meant she was able to save her uterus.

During this period, Jiang Xu mentioned that Ruan Xiufang’s illness was related to an HPV infection, which is often transmitted through sex. So to avoid recurrence and ensure safety, he suggested that Ma Hao also goes for a test.

In the past, many family members of cervical cancer patients were reluctant to go for examinations, always feeling that the hospital was extorting money under the pretext of examinations. They think that since they had no symptoms, how could they be infected with the virus? Some would not listen to the doctor’s explanation and instead scold: “It’s my wife who is sick, why are you asking me to do the examination?”

Probably every doctor in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology in Jihua has been called a “quack” for this reason.

Jiang Xu originally thought that Ma Hao would also be very resistant; after all, the first impression he gave was really bad. Unexpectedly, he agreed as soon as Jiang Xu proposed it, and after getting the results, he ran to ask Jiang Xu if there was a problem.

Ma Hao’s HPV infection result was negative, which made the medical staff in charge of Ruan Xiufang breathe a sigh of relief.

Jiang Xu returned the report to Ma Hao, who bowed to him again.

Because Ruan Xiufang’s condition was good, he didn’t pay much attention to her except for the regular ward rounds and listening to Shao Le’s report, so when he saw Ma Hao on the day of discharge, Jiang Xu was quite surprised.

Because of chemotherapy, Ruan Xiufang’s hair was a little thin. Ma Hao carefully put a wool hat on her, took out a silk banner from his arms, and handed it to Jiang Xu.

There was an envelope pressed on top of the silk banner. Jiang Xu thought that it contained money, so he frowned slightly and handed it back. Ma Hao stammered a little anxiously: “Please take it, Doctor Jiang; it’s not a red envelope.”

He seemed a little embarrassed. “It’s a thank you note I wrote to you.”

He didn’t have time to read it during the day, so Jiang Xu took the time to open the envelope after his last surgery. Ma Hao did not lie, the brown paper envelope contained only a few pages of paper, Jiang Xu drank a sip of boiled water to moisten his throat and read the letter by the desk lamp.

Ma Hao’s words were crooked, and a little tiring to understand, but Jiang Xu read the words very patiently.

The letter was addressed to him, but it was a bit like Ma Hao’s own self-talk, he apologized to Jiang Xu, and also reflected on some previous concepts. Jiang Xu read the letter all the way to the back, but the topic had already deviated to how Ma Hao vowed to treat his wife well, and there was next to nothing about Jiang Xu.

Jiang Xu hooked the corner of his mouth lightly, folded the letter, and stuffed it back into the envelope. He opened the bottom drawer of the workstation, where there was a large stack of thank-you letters neatly arranged, and put Ma Hao’s envelope inside before closing the drawer.

———–

“I saw that Yu Sang hung the banner that Ma Hao gave you next to your ticket.” Early in the morning, Shen Fangyu said to Jiang Xu while washing his face: “The contrast is extremely eye-catching. ”

Wouldn’t that be extremely eye-catching?

The ticket was issued to Jiang Xu for beating Ma Hao when he came to look for trouble, and Ma Hao’s banner saying “Gifted Hands and A Kind Heart” was hung below, which was simply a live signboard on the bulletin board. It instantly became “another classic story of Dr. Jiang” that was talked about during tea and mealtimes at the Jihua Obstetrics and Gynecology Department, as well as told to the students.

Jiang Xu was a doctor, and it was his job to treat and save people, so he didn’t feel the need for patients and their families to be grateful to him or show their gratitude. In contrast, he cared more about whether patients were willing to follow the doctor’s advice, as well as the patient’s prognosis and recovery.

But no doctor would be unhappy to get such recognition, and Jiang Xu was no exception, especially if this person once disapproved of him.

Male doctors in the obstetrics and gynecology department suffer more disdain and ridicule than female doctors, and since the division of the department, Jiang Xu has seen many people like Ma Hao, and he has heard far worse than what Ma Hao said that day.

So in fact, most male doctors in obstetrics and gynecology originally applied to study other majors but were transferred because their scores were not enough.

But this was Jiang Xu and Shen Fangyu’s first choice, even though they had several other options.

Shen Fangyu asked: “Actually, I have always wondered, why did you choose to major in obstetrics and gynecology?”

Jiang Xu took a sip of the steaming soy milk he just bought: “I have also always wondered why you studied obstetrics and obstetrics.”

“That’s a long story.” Shen Fangyu’s eyes were a little subtle.

Jiang Xu glanced at him and said, “I know you asked someone to inquire about my elective subjects. ”

Shen Fangyu wiped the water off his face and paused: “And that person told me you listed ophthalmology, cardiology, and necrology as your majors. ”

“That’s how it was filled in.” Jiang Xu said: “I changed it after I heard that you inquired about my course selection. ”

Jiang Xu actually didn’t care what department he went to, after all, whichever department he went to would treat and save people. Each department had something interesting about it, so he didn’t feel that any department was inferior, and he was also confident that he could get the best teacher no matter which department.

So when applying at that time, he chose the most popular ones based on the advice of his seniors.

But then his roommate suddenly told him that Shen Fangyu came to inquire about his selections. When Jiang Xu thought that Shen Fangyu might follow him to the same department, he directly changed his previous options and chose the one least recommended by his seniors. After all the years spent grinding in college, he didn’t want to compete with Shen Fangyu anymore.

Someone has to go to the obstetrics and gynecology department, right?

At that time, Jiang Xu thought very carefully. It was not a big deal; he had nothing to be afraid of. Even if everyone said that it was not great in obstetrics and gynecology, he could still shine.

As long as he could get rid of Shen Fangyu.

Unexpectedly, Shen Fangyu also reported to the obstetrics and gynecology department.

Jiang Xu still hasn’t figured out why this came about. He didn’t show his list to anyone after changing it, and he was the last one to hand it in. So logically speaking, there was no way Shen Fangyu could know his choice.

Shen Fangyu’s eyes looked even more subtle after hearing Jiang Xu’s answer: “I inquired about your choices to avoid you. ”

And for the sake of safety, he chose the obstetrics and gynecology department that Jiang Xu was most unlikely to choose, thinking that even if Jiang Xu changed his mind, he would definitely not collide with him.

Jiang Xu: “…”

This shows how important communication between people is.

“We are really… destined to meet in a thousand miles,” Shen Fangyu said and sang: “Ah~~~, ah~~~”

The reverberant singing voice was really deafening, stirring Jiang Xu, who had finally dismissed this melody from his mind, and all the previous efforts to forget were all in vain.

God knows, he actually hummed those “ah~~” during the surgery yesterday. It wasn’t until he saw Yu Sang looking like he had seen a ghost that he realized what he had done.

Jiang Xu really didn’t want to recall the embarrassing moment in the operating room for another second, so he threw the dinner plate directly into the dishwasher, picked up his briefcase, and walked to the entrance to change his shoes.

“Wait for me, and we go together, Jiang Xu!”

“No.” Jiang Xu looked indifferent.

“Do you have many surgeries today?” Shen Fangyu asked as he ate some steamed buns.

“Not many.”

Shen Fangyu heard this and said, “Then come back to eat in the evening; I’m cooking.”

Jiang Xu’s hand holding the doorknob paused, and he said solemnly: “After thinking about it carefully, there are actually many surgeries.”

“Can your acting skills be any more embarrassing?” Shen Fangyu said: “I don’t care; you must come back to eat today; otherwise, I will be sad; you can’t bear to leave me alone——”

“I can.”

The last thing Shen Fangyu saw before Dr. Jiang closed the door resolutely was his handsome back.

“Tch,” Shen Fangyu sat back at the table and bit the bun viciously, “He has no conscience.”
