Let's Divorce As Agreed

779  Baby Gu Is a Girl?

In the blink of an eye, Ye Xiaomeng's daughter turned one month old. The little one was becoming more and more delightful. In the meantime, Shu Pan also took Joy to see her twice.

Now, Shu Pan's due date was approaching, and the baby could arrive at any moment, so she dared not venture out anymore.

Song Can, seeing this, became busy attending to her.

Strangely enough, ever since Shu Pan became pregnant, her taste buds had become somewhat picky, especially craving spicy food.

At the dinner table, the bright red chili peppers made people a bit anxious. After all, their diet had always been rather bland. But Shu Pan enjoyed them with relish.

As the saying goes, "sour boys and spicy girls," Song Can, speaking from experience, was certain that there must be a little princess in Shu Pan's belly. So she started buying baby girl items—pink bottles, pink clothes, pink blankets...

With everything prepared, they were now just waiting for the little princess to arrive. At this time, a well-known foreign obstetrician and gynecologist came to China to give a lecture. His academic viewpoint, which challenged the traditional beliefs of the Chinese, was that no pregnancy symptoms could predict the gender of the fetus.

Song Can thought this foreign doctor was unreliable, but when she saw those pink items, she couldn't resist buying them, wanting to bring everything beautiful from the stores back home.

Seeing Song Can's frenzy of purchases, all in pink, Shu Pan anxiously reminded her, "Mom, that's enough. Please don't buy anymore. Will you stop once the baby is born?"

Actually, Shu Pan had a faint feeling that it might be a boy. But to maintain the element of surprise and because hospitals now had regulations against revealing the baby's gender prematurely, she had to relent.

Awaiting the big reveal was also nice.

However, seeing Song Can buying a whole bunch of things, she felt quite a headache. She expressed her opinion tactfully, but Song Can didn't seem to mind. "It's okay, anyway, if it's cute, I'll buy it. We'll definitely use it."

Shu Pan could only swallow the words she wanted to say.

Days passed, and the whole family was eagerly awaiting the arrival of the baby.

Finally, one night, Shu Pan felt a bit uncomfortable and rubbed her belly. "I don't know if I ate too much. I keep feeling like I need to use the bathroom."

"Feeling unwell? Then hurry up, be careful, the floor is slippery," Gu Shaoting cautioned. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Shu Pan nodded, went to the bathroom, sat on the toilet for a while, and then came out ten minutes later, rubbing her belly. "I still don't feel quite right. What's going on? Could it be time to give birth?"

Gu Shaoting frowned when he heard this. "How about we go to the hospital now and check?"

"But it doesn't seem like labor pains." Shu Pan, who had previous experience giving birth to Joy, glanced outside. "It's late at night, it might be better to wait until morning."

Gu Shaoting was too concerned to sleep anymore. "No, we're going now for peace of mind."

His expression was serious, indicating there was no room for negotiation.

After he finished speaking, he found clothes for her. Shu Pan let him dress her, and when they left, they alarmed Song Can and Auntie Li, who appeared very worried and insisted on coming along. Gu Shaoting had to calm them down before they relented.

"She's just a little uncomfortable in her stomach for now, no actual pain yet. If she's really going into labor, you can go when it's light out. Besides, Grandpa and Joy are at home, and they need someone to take care of them." Indeed, that was the case, so they felt reassured staying home.

In the car, Gu Shaoting kept asking, "Honey, how are you feeling?"

"I feel like I need to use the bathroom and there's some discomfort," Shu Pan said, her face pale, her tone somewhat pained.

Gu Shaoting couldn't help but speed up a bit.
