Chapter 1373: Try To Have a Baby
Lu Lijun went back to Jiang Yuyan who was sitting in the bed still after what she talked with An Tian. Seeing Lu Lijun, all she could think was, 'Can I really dream of being with him?'
"Are you feeling fine?" she heard him and disturbed her thoughts.
She nodded.
"Would you like to talk to me about what you discussed with your doctor," he asked.
"It was nothing much," she replied and stayed quiet.
Lu Lijun didn't wish to force her to tell him anything and respected her wish.
That night they had a quiet dinner in the dining room and now one dared tease anyone as Jiang Yuyan was not fine. Just like the previous night, Lu Lijun and Jiang Yuyan slept in his room in the same bed.
She was sleeping on her back facing him while he was sleeping staring at the ceiling. Both didn't seem to like getting any sleep as both were busy thinking about what they had talked to An Tian. After a long while thinking, both fell asleep without saying any word to each other.
It was a quiet night as Jiang Yuyan didn't have any nightmares and looked peacefully sleeping. By dawn there was a movement in bed and Lu Lijun felt it. He opened his eyes in panic and looked at Jiang Yuyan who was curled in a ball and looked like in pain.
'She was sleeping soundly. What happened suddenly?' he moved closer to her, "Yuyan."
She didn't reply and instead continued curling up in ball with her feet folded up towards her stomach and her hands surrounding her stomach. 'Doesn't seem like a nightmare.'
Lu Lijun got up and turned on the lights and as he went to her who looked in immense pain and turned all over sweat, "Yuyan what happened?"
She could not speak a word and he said, "I will call a doctor."
"C-Call... Martha or.. Xiao Min," she said with much effort.
'Martha and Xiao Min?' Lu Lijun thought. "What is it, you can tell me," he said.
"Just call Martha," she insisted.
He sat at the edge of the bed and caressed her head as he spoke gently, "Martha went to her home last night. Didn't she inform us after dinner? She will be back before breakfast time."
"X-Xiao Min..." Jiang Yuyan said.
"He was working till late at night. Can't you tell me instead," Lu Lijun said as he looked at her painful face.
She looked at him. There was disappointment in his eyes as Xiao Min was allowed but he was not but he only wanted to take care of her. She moved a little to sit up in bed and Lu Lijun helped her. She clutched the quilt to not let it move away and lowered her gaze as if she was embarrassed about something.
"You.. can go out... I will manage," she said with much effort.
Lu Lijun didn't hesitate for a moment and asked, "Is it a period?" He had seen her in pain and if it was not a health issue then this must be the reason as she was hesitant and he was smart enough to understand it.
She looked at him who was serious and she lowered her gaze, "I..seem to spoil your bed," and didn't know why tears rolled down her eyes. She was embarrassed that she had to show him this side of her. She was a grown woman who could be used to her own body situation and should be prepared to handle it but she was no less than a kid who could not take care of even such things. But she simply didn't think that she would get her periods a month earlier instead of regular three months which never happened in the past few years.
"It's fine," Lu Lijun said and wiped her tears. "Let me help you," he said, though he didn't know what he should do.
She continued shedding tears despite his consoling words. Lu Lijun moved closer and hugged her, "You don't need to cry about it. We can just change it. You don't need to even feel embarrassed as it's a good thing for a woman. Isn't it?"
She didn't know how to answer it and heard him while caressing her back gently to console her. He moved back and looked at her, "Is it hurting a lot?"
She nodded lightly with her head lowered and the tears didn't stop at all.
"I had message Noah to call the doctor. Will be here soon," he informed, ""You just tell me what you want me to do and I will help you. Do you want me to get clothes for you so you can change?"
She nodded.
Lu Lijun went to the wardrobe to get her clothes while she looked at him with her teary eyes. Though it was so embarrassing for her, his care felt good and she wanted him to be like this with her. She felt wanted to rely on him for every single of her needs.
He pulled out the clothes and said, "You have sanitary napkins?"
She nodded, "It's in my bag."
Lu Lijun went to her bag that was placed next to the wardrobe, opened it and found the pack of sanitary napkins. He went to the bathroom and put the things for her there. He returned, "Let's go."
"You turn around," she said awkwardly. "I will go by myself."
He didn't insist and turned around. She stepped out of the bed while feeling pain in her abdomen and felt like her legs were weak to even walk. With her slow footsteps, she went to the bathroom while Lu Lijun didn't look at her as he felt worried and said, "Don't lock the door."
After a while, Jiang Yuyan freshened up and changed into new clothes. When she returned, she saw the bedsheet and everything on the bed had already been changed to the new one and Lu Lijun was carrying the previous ones.
'He already changed it?' she thought and walked ahead while Lu Lijun looked at her, "Rest in bed."
He carried the used bed sheet and quilt to the bathroom and put them in the laundry bag. When he returned he saw Jiang Yuyan sitting on the bed with much effort and her face looked pale.
He went to her and helped her lay in bed, "Doctor will be here soon."
Jiang Yuyan nodded and closed her eyes. It was nothing new for her but she knew it was just a start and later she will be in much more pain and she will need a doctor.
Covering her with a quilt, he dialled Noah's number, "What about the doctor."
"On the way. WIll be here in fifteen minutes. Need any other help?" Noah asked.
"No. Just bring the doctor here once arrives," Lu Lijun instructed.
Lu Lijun went to her and sat at the edge of the bed, "Doctor will be here in fifteen minutes."
She nodded and groaned a little in pain. There was nothing Lu Lijun could do and felt helpless seeing her in pain. He remembered something and messaged Noah. In the next five minutes, there was a knock on the door. Lu Lijun went to the door and Noah was there holding the warm water bag.
Lu Lijun took it from him, "Thank you."
"If anything else, inform me," Noah said and left.
Lu Lijun went to Jiang Yuyan who had shut her eyes tightly as her body shivered in pain. Lu Lijun moved the quilt down and put that bag on her lower abdomen. He covered her back and caressed her head to make her feel better as he waited for the doctor to arrive.
After a while, the doctor arrived and Noah took her to Lu Lijun's room while he stood outside of the room in case there was any need.
The doctor checked Jiang Yuyan and injected her with the medicine to relieve from excess pain and went to Lu Lijun who waited for the doctor to talk.
She handed him a prescription and said, "She seems to be really weak and heavy bleeding might cause her to worsen it. This medicine will help lower the bleeding and pain."
Lu Lijun only nodded and heard the doctor again, "Is your wife always like this whenever she gets her periods?"
Wife? He didn't correct the doctor and said, "Yes."
"I will suggest that you try having a baby. After that it might get better," the doctor said, which turned Lu Lijun speechless while Jiang Yuyan, who was in pain, suddenly felt her body go numb hearing what the doctor said.
Lu Lijun simply nodded as he didn't wish to correct the doctor who didn't know Jiang Yuyan's real situation and didn't wish to mention in front of Jiang Yuyan that she can't have a baby.
"There are patients who got better once they had a baby," the doctor said again and Lu Lijun nodded, "I understand."
"All the best then," the doctor said with a smile and left the room where Noah was waiting outside to see the doctor off.
