As the mother of the baby, Luo Lixi definitely had the right to know about this matter but he hesitated. Sheng Ruming didn't want to see her more upset if by any chance the baby couldn't survive.
Thus after knowing his intentions, Sheng Haotin told him it was better to let everybody know after one month passed because the other doctors said if the baby survived 3 weeks without any hurdle, then the fetus would be out of danger.
Sheng Haotin was the grandfather and naturally, he was also worried for his little grandchild. Also knowing that Wei Airan was crazy about getting a little one as soon as possible, he couldn't let anything happen to it either.
Also, those researchers and doctors from the capital city were still present in the Ming city and Sheng Ruming was hopeful that they would soon find out the cure for Luo Lixi. He wanted a complete cure for the fatal drug, not any temporary measure like injecting a bunch of liquids in her body every day!
The surrogate mother came and then in front of Sheng Ruming, the female doctor took a bunch of tests. From blood tests to measuring weight, nothing was spared according to Sheng Ruming's demand.
If it was possible, he would have told them to take the ultrasound but the man knew that the current technology wasn't enough to let him see the little seedling at the moment.
Afterwards, the reports were sent to the young man who was anxiously waiting for the results for a long time. Also, during the past two weeks, he was very worried for Luo Lixi and didn't give any attention here which made him extremely guilty. So the man was adamant to make sure this time that everything was on the right track.
'Finally…' After he got his hand on the results, Sheng Ruming nodded in satisfaction. For the first time, he moved his face to see the woman but he was mostly indifferent.
"I hope you are satisfied now, Mr Sheng. If you have any doubts, feel free to ask me." Xiao Peilan said with a professional smile. After staying in the same room with Sheng Ruming for a long time, he got used to the invisible pressure and tension.
Now, his heart wouldn't fret even when he knew that many bodyguards were standing in attention outside, ready to get into action just from a single word from Sheng Ruming if the young man were to see anything wrong.
The room became very quiet in a moment. Xiao Huang was also reading the report alongside Sheng Ruming. It would be correct to say that he was peeking but Sheng Ruming didn't stop him. Both men read with utmost seriousness.
One was worried for his little one and another was worried for his new baby boss. After all, without a doubt, Xiao Huang would be in charge of the safety of the little baby.
As they read along, both men became tense and deep frowns took place on their foreheads. Sheng Ruming's grip on the paper tightened as he continued. Xiao Huang swiftly lifted his face and stared at Xiao Peilan in deep thoughts.
"The sugar level is way too low… dehydrated…'' As Sheng Ruming subconsciously spoke out, something snapped in his mind. He had the urge to rush to that woman and fed her a gallon of sweet water.
Xiao Huang naturally saw the grave matters on the paper as he murmured worriedly, "Boss, it will be better if we take the woman and put her under 24-hour observation, also some maids to take care of her. It will be best if Doctor Xiao can be the stand-in doctor during the nine months of pregnancy."
Sheng Ruming nodded his head and whispered while he was busy reading the report, "You make sense. We will have to do so or else I don't know what will happen to my child in that dried body…"
Xiao Peilan was both petrified and shocked when he heard the weird conversation between the two men. Even though Sheng Ruming and Xiao Huang were keeping their voices low, he heard them clearly.
The old bald man couldn't help but rub his forehead in confusion. He guessed that something was wrong with the surrogate. The man turned around and shot a piercing glare at his useless assistant who immediately looked away and thought in despair, 'Don't look at me like that! It's not my fault! I didn't make her dehydrated!'
...
Right then, Sheng Ruming was done reading the entire page. His expression was very unsightly as he thought with hidden anger. 'The exact thing that I have feared has happened…'
The young man's face became stern but his eyes were curved which wasn't even a sign of a smile. He folded the report in half as he asked, "Doctor, is it fine to lose weight during pregnancy? Much more being dehydrated?"
Xiao Peilan didn't even take a second to reply and shook his head as it was common sense and even a newly born child knew such things, "No. Because of matters like nausea and vomiting, the patient can lose weight and become dehydrated…"
After hearing him, all the emotions from Sheng Ruming's face vanished as he turned towards the glass wall, staring at the woman with hostility who was resting on the hospital bed. But currently, she was busy talking with someone on her phone and was flashing an ultra flashy smile.
"The report shows that she has lost 200 grams! Not even 1 gram but 200 grams! It is obvious that she isn't taking care of her body! At this rate, when my child will be born, won't it come out while having a stick-like figure?!" Sheng Ruming clenched his fingers and the reports were distorted beyond recognition. Just the very thought of this made him mad beyond control.
"..." Xiao Peilan lost his words for a moment as he thought while looking at the young man who had lost control of his temper, 'What can I say in this weird situation?...'
As Sheng Ruming turned back and began to glare at the woman in anger, Xiao Huang took his place and asked Xiao Peilan the important matters, "Didn't you give her any money to take care of her and the fetus?"
Xiao Peilan immediately replied with a grave tone as the professionalism of his beloved hospital was questioned indirectly!
"We have already paid her half of the said amount. On top of that, extra cash for food and other necessities. The extra amount is more than enough for a family of four to last one year. We were extra cautious as this is a special case."
Xiao Huang nodded again and turned to Sheng Ruming, waiting for his instructions.
After listening to Xiao Peilan's words, Sheng Ruming sighed and tried to calm down but just by thinking that the woman might be neglecting her health because it wasn't her child made him furious again.
The man turned to Xiao Peilan and forced out word by word with a stuffy voice, "She is just a teacher and it doesn't give her enough money. She may be saving up the money you have paid for food… I can't let my baby suffer… do something!"
After all, if violence was possible, Sheng Ruming had gone to that path. But it was a matter concerning his child and he didn't want to take any risk! What if the surrogate went on a hunger strike after he kidnapped her away?!
Thus, in the next second, Xiao Peilan was forced to go to the other side of the room and had a serious talk with the surrogate mother.
As it turned out she was very busy with her work and didn't think that her body condition would be affected even though she had made sure to eat and drink on time.
After talking with her for a long time and negotiating some conditions, the surrogate mother finally agreed to leave her job temporarily. As soon as she heard that she would be given triple the amount, she agreed.
Also knowing that she would be staying in a villa and maids would be there to take care of her needs, she didn't even think twice and said yes right away.
Many would say she was greedy but whoever was willing to become a surrogate, was after money, either they were in need of it or the greed to earn some cash in the quickest way possible.
…
Afterwards, Xiao Huang took care of that woman and sent her to one of the mansions under Sheng Ruming. Only after he arranged and made sure of everything, Sheng Ruming breathed out a sigh of relief.
'I don't want to wait many days to tell Lixi about our child. You better be fine…' Sheng Ruming thought as he saw the back of the unknown woman walking into the mansion. The glass of the black car went up and it drove away from the entrance of the mansion.
