Chapter 2729: Chapter 2733: Regret

After hanging up Gu Junzhu’s phone, he immediately called Gu Qingrun and Yue Yaer, informing them of Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei’s location, urging them to come quickly.

Moments later, Gu Qingrun and Yue Yaer rushed over, knocking on the door to enter.

Upon entering, Yue Yaer first asked, "What’s wrong? Who’s feeling unwell?"

Her gaze fell on Ye Xingbei’s face, "Beibei, are you feeling unwell? What’s wrong? Your complexion is so poor."

Ye Xingbei opened her mouth but found it hard to speak.

Should she say she suspects she’s pregnant?

What if she’s not? How embarrassing!

Would they laugh at her for being so desperate for a child?

Gu Junzhu, not as weighed down by such thoughts, straightforwardly said, "Beibei has been having a poor appetite and is lethargic lately, which I think are symptoms resembling early pregnancy. Could you check if she’s pregnant?"

Gu Qingrun was embarrassed, "Young Master, I can only determine through instruments whether Young Madam is pregnant. Regarding this matter, I’m powerless to help."

"Traditional Chinese Medicine can diagnose pregnancy through pulse reading," Yue Yaer said, "But I’m young and inexperienced in my craft; I might not be accurate."

"No worries," Gu Junzhu said, "Just give it a try. If you can’t determine anything, both of you should check if there’s anything wrong with her body; her complexion is too poor."

"Okay!" Yue Yaer nodded, sitting next to Ye Xingbei to read her pulse.

Ye Xingbei tightly held Gu Junzhu’s hand, feeling so nervous she could hear her own heartbeat.

Gu Junzhu wrapped his arm around her shoulder, equally tense like never before.

Truly.

Back in the day, leading his troops on top-level missions didn’t make him this nervous.

Yue Yaer read the pulse for several minutes.

After finishing, she moved her hand away and looked at Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei, "The pulse flows smoothly, should feel rounded like pearls rolling on jade plates. It should be a pregnancy pulse for sure."

"Pregnancy pulse?" Ye Xingbei, bewildered, asked somewhat incredulously, "Does that mean I’m pregnant?"

"Yes," Yue Yaer nodded, "A pregnant pulse is a slippery pulse, and you currently have a typical slippery pulse, so you should be pregnant. But to be certain, I’m not very experienced in this area, so I dare not conclude. You can try a pregnancy test at home, or go to the hospital for a blood test for a clear confirmation."

Yue Yaer is always so humble.

Whenever she’s asked to diagnose an illness, she always says she’s young and inexperienced and might not be able to cure it.

Indeed, she’s young and inexperienced, but she has a good teacher and talent.

Every time she says she lacks experience and might not cure but only try, she manages to cure it.

Therefore, when Yue Yaer said she believed Ye Xingbei was pregnant, but it could be due to her inexperience, thus misreading the pulse, Ye Xingbei automatically ignored the latter part.

She believed that since Yue Yaer said her pulse indicated pregnancy, she must be pregnant.

Moreover, these past days, she felt fatigued, lethargic, and had poor appetite, which are all early pregnancy symptoms.

She must indeed be pregnant.

This thought flashed through her mind repeatedly, filling her with a joy she could not contain.

She truly wanted to have a child.

A child with Gu Junzhu.

A son or daughter would be fine.

She and Gu Junzhu could watch their unborn child grow little by little, see him born, and accompany him as he grows every day.

For Gu Junzhu, missing Xiao Shu for five years was his regret.
