LEGEND OF THE GOLDEN TIGRESS 509 The Good News

When Xueman woke up, she was in a hospital bed neatly tucked in. A really nice smell of chicken soup entered her nostrils making her hungry and her stomach growled loudly.

"You are awake, Manman!"

The voice overflowing with gentle motherly affection, foreign yet so familiar, made Xueman wonder if she is dreaming and she blinked her eyes after rubbing it.

"Oh! Poor child! How much have you suffered..." Tang Weihua helped Xueman sit up.

"Here, drink some water first... I'll go call the doctor and tell him you've woken up"

Before, Xueman could compose herself Tang Weihua had left the room.

"Who'd have the heart to hurt such a sweet child like this..."

Xueman heard Weihua mumble as she left and all Xueman could do was smile wryly.

Who? My own mother and sister...

Xueman looked around the big private room and her eyes widened, seeing Yuanjun's third Sister-in-law sleeping in the attender's bed with the baby and the second Sister-in-law sleeping in the couch, curled up.

'They came here for me? How long are they here? Were they waiting for me for this long? ' Xueman felt a sweetness bubbling in her heart as she checked the time. She has been blacked out for five hours.

And the doctor came and did a general checkup and said she was weak and needs to rest properly and left.

The other two woke up with the doctor's voice and both of them surrounded Xueman with their worry clearly apparent in their face and after hearing what the doctor said, they both were relieved.

"Yuanjun...? And... First big brother? "

Xueman asked reluctantly. A lot happened before and she wondered they had encountered any problems with him shooting at people and First brother even killed people.

Xueman slightly expected that she'd be reprimanded for putting them in trouble but the two sisters started teasing her for always thinking about Yuanjun and Tang Weihua making Xueman realise that this is her new family is like. They don't blame each other and stand together in adversaries, protecting their own.

Li Xueman couldn't handle their readings and Weihua sent them away giving them both a bowl of soup and both of them got the soup like obedient little children with excitement and sat on the couch, happily slurping it.

"These naughty girls..."

Tang Weihua chuckled and her tone was so doting that whoever saw her saying that would have thought that she was talking about her grandchildren and not daughters-in-law.

She poured Xueman a bowl of soup with the same smile and sat by her side as Xueman drank the soup.

Only after drinking it, did Xueman realise why those two were that excited for the soup. It was like an elixir from the Heavenly realm.

"Is it okay? You've never had it, right?" Tang Weihua asked expectantly. Her dark eyes looked at Xueman with antic.i.p.ation and Xueman cried unknowingly.

She was exhilarated by the love she received from the Lu family.

Weihua thought Xueman got scared because of the things happened that day and hugged her and rubbed her back trying to soothe her.

"Don't worry, Manman... Yuanjun will be fine. First is with him, right? Both will be fine... Don't cry..."

She patted her back.

At that time, the eldest Sister-in-law walked in with a report in her hand.

"Congratulations, mum! You are going to become..." she paused seeing Xueman crying as she was hugging Tang Weihua and weeping while the other two were confused. She was smiling and crying at the same time, so she should be not sad, right? It should be...

"I'm glad, mum... I'm glad for you.. Sisters"

Xueman said composing herself and wiped her face with the tissues offered by the second Sister-in-law.

Everyone sighed in relief knowing Xueman cried only out of happiness.

At the same time, Yuanjun and Weishang entered the room and were taken aback by the situation in the room.

Could there be a problem?

"What?" Weisheng asked his wife and she showed him the report in her hand with a big smile in her face and his face brightened up too.

Yuanjun walked in and Weihua realising her son is back, stepped back.

"You are back! There is no problem with the law, right? " Xueman asked Yuanjun. She was only truly relieved after seeing him looking fine.

"It's all handled"

Yuanjun a.s.sured her and without any shame poured himself a bowl of his mother's chicken soup and sat by her side and started drinking.

Turns out, his brother really cannot use military personnel and helicopters for his personal use!

His brother is a Minister and he has clout in the city and also the Zhong family already came to their aid since they came to know those thugs attacked Huang Qian. With the Zhong family's involvement, even the government couldn't do much. Some deals were made and it can be handled. And the situation that happened today was all swept under the rug with the criminals prosecuted secretly and incarcerated. All is well that ends well.

" Is that chicken soup?" the first Sister-in-law walked in whiffing, "Why wasn't I informed?" she looked like she was wronged as she complained, pouting, "Mother only cares about Xueman now that she is going to give her a grandchild...Mother,You forgot I already gave you two grandchildren..."

*Cough cough *

Lu Yuanjun ended up coughing hearing what his eldest Sister-in-law said.

Grandchild? Manman?

He looked at Xueman who was equally perplexed and she stared at Su Yuemeng, blinking her eyes.

Realising that she had tactlessly revealed such an important information, Su Yuemeng sighed.

"I did a routine blood test and found that you are pregnant," she clapped enthusiastically while everyone were excited about the news too. "

Congratulations, Manman! You are going to be a mother and don't worry! The ordeal today wouldn't have affected the baby in the slightest. Both of you are strong and healthy. But you should be careful till the end of first trimester," she said with a big smile.

Tang Weihua was the most happiest as he almost jumped and everyone left the room, dragging along the third Sister-in-law who was more worried about the measurements of Manman's wedding gown along, to leave some privacy for the couple who are soon to be parents.

"You are not happy?"

Xueman asked Yuanjun who was stunned to say anything even after they all left.

"I'm jobless, Manman... Now is the time for you to employ me. How will my son respect me if I am a NEET?", he held her shoulders, sniffing his nose.

"Come on!"

Xueman thought he was joking but his stern expression said otherwise and she rolled her eyes. He is not talking about our wedding, but about his job? Does he not want the child?

"You don't want the child? You think this is not the right time?"

She asked and he shook his head immediately, "No way. There is never a right time for a child and I will never not want a child... I just want a job. Please employ me, Manman," he looked at her pleadingly.

"Fine... Fine..." Xueman agreed half-heartedly. She has every plans to let him handle the Li Enterprises by himself. If he wants to hold the t.i.tle of the Secretary of the CEO of the Li Enterprises, let him be.

This man has already decided to let her children take her surname and she had no qualms in letting him take the company, which is her father's legacy.

For her being part of the amazing Lu family was enough.

"Manman... We should do the check-ups regularly... The pre-natal Scans, tests... Everything. I promise I will take good care of you, okay? Don't worry," Yuanjun hugged her close and kissed her, gently.

"We only did it once... How did it happen?" he asked placing his hand on her belly, his face filled with delight. This feeling of going to become a father was too good.

"We did it four times in one night. That is not once. And also I thought you used... You know what.... Didn't you?" Xueman asked back.

They only did it that night and Xueman always had irregular periods and she didn't doubt that she might be pregnant. But blood tests are usually accurate, right?

" Well... I kind of... Removed it the third time... Midway... " Yuanjun smiled awkwardly.

"Who knew it only takes one time for us to get pregnant?"

"It takes everyone one time to get pregnant, dummy" she gently reprimanded him and he placed his forehead in her shoulders, wrapping his arms around her waist.

"Manman, thank you..." his voice shook as he got overwhelmed. In just three months, his entire life got overturned and he who thought he had his life figured out as a professor, now is in an entirely different place. He now has a fiance and a child on the way.

" Let's get married soon, okay? Let's resister our marriage first and conduct the wedding ceremony as you please..."

He hugged her close as she agreed.

"I love you Manman... Thank you for giving me all the joy in the world. Thank you for the family you are giving me "

"I love you too, Yuanjun," she said as she smiled. "It is you who are giving me my everything... You are giving me the best family... Thank you"

And before they could compose themselves, the room door opened and everyone rushed in and the entire room was filled with the happy laughter and affectionate teasing of the family members who loved each other.

Lu Xueman looked at the face of everyone around her all delighted for her and Yuanjun and her heart filled with content.

'This is enough for me this life time. A happy family with the man I love and thr family he gave me'

She placed her hand on her belly and smiled. The smile was filled with peace and elation. This happiness...she vowed she'd protect with her everything.
