Chapter 883 - The Truth Of Blood Loss
If she asked about it, Lu Yi would definitely say that she was overthinking, and tell her that everything was fine. However, it was obvious that something was off. She trusted her sixth sense that Lu Yi was hiding something from her.
Lu Yi picked up his chopsticks and put some vegetables into her bowl. “Eat a little bit more. The two little ones inside you still need to eat, even if you’re not hungry.”
Yan Huan picked up her chopsticks and started to eat, although she found her food tasteless. Her expression when she ate her meal was what she looked like when swallowing pills, it was quite worrying.
Yan Huan forced herself to take in some food. It was only one third of her usual portion, but she could not eat anymore, and it seemed like she had a little bit of indigestion.
She sat silently, fiddling with her small mirror.
Lu Yi picked up a jacket and wrapped it around her.
“What is it?” Yan Huan lifted her face and tugged at the jacket in confusion. “It’s not cold inside the house, you don’t need to add another layer to me.”
“I’m taking you to the hospital.”
Lu Yi put the jacket around her and buttoned it up. She had made him worried, so it was logical for him to bring her in for a check up.
Soon after that, Lu Yi brought Yan Huan to the hospital. He Yibin, who was just about to get off work, had stayed back because of Lu Yi’s call.
Yan Huan laid down on the bed. She was actually planning to come over to do a four-dimensional ultrasound to have a look at her children, as it was the final step of checking the children’s health condition.
“Both of them are doing well.” Yan Huan felt relaxed after listening to the doctor. She just wanted her children to be healthy.
“Wow...” The doctor continued with a laugh. “They look so much like their dad.”
“Their looks can be seen as well?” Yan Huan blinked.
“Of course,” the doctor replied as he packed up his equipment. “Their looks can almost be seen now, but both of them are quite lazy, and are almost always asleep. It has been seven months already. Keep it up.” The doctor touched Yan Huan’s stomach. “It is quite a hard pregnancy, but it’ll be worth it. Think about it, three more months, maybe even sooner, you’ll be able to see both of them. Isn’t it exciting? Oh, and one more thing, just before I forget,” the doctor paused for a moment, then continued. “Both of them look identical, so you might get a headache trying to differentiate between them. As they are from the same ovum. That’s why they will look very similar to each other.”
Yan Huan wanted to see both her children as soon as possible. The doctor had said that they looked like their father, which meant they will be really handsome. It would probably be better if they did not look like her. Her facial features were fine on a lady, but it would be too delicate for a guy. So, it was better for them to look like their father.
She walked carefully. She had no worries as the floor of the hospital was anti-slip and she was wearing flats. She breathed a sigh of relief as she reached He Yibin’s office.
Sure enough, it was really tiring to carry two babies at once, especially during the later stage when she could barely walk a few steps before having to stop. This would last for another three months.
She tucked her hair behind her ears. Hmm, it has grown long already, time to cut it. She used to love her hair the most, but the more she thought about it, she realized it was indeed better not to keep it.
Just as she was about to knock on the door, she heard the voices of people talking in the room. They sounded like Lu Yi and He Yibin.
She had never planned on eavesdropping, even though it was Lu Yi. But when she loosened her grip, her stomach accidentally pushed the door a little, and a small gap appeared. The voices were much louder now, and she could clearly hear what they were discussing about.
“Lu Yi, are you out of your mind?”

He Yibin wanted to crack open Lu Yi’s head to find out what was actually in his brain, to understand what was in his mind.
“You need to donate your blood to that woman two times per month. Do you really think that your blood is unlimited? You will get yourself in trouble if you keep donating your blood like that.”
“It’s fine, I can handle it.” Lu Yi felt that he truly was fine, the only difference being that he was slightly more exhausted now compared to before. He actually wanted to experience what Yan Huan had felt in her past life, how miserable she was, and how much pain she went through.
Certainly, he must not get himself in trouble. This world was so beautiful that he could not bear to give it up.
He Yibin wanted to simply take something and swing it at his head.
“Are you stupid, Lu Yi?! Those issues are between Su Muran and Sun Yuhan. They have nothing to do with you. Don’t you still have your grandpa? Why are you looking for trouble, trying to shoulder everything on your own?”
“After all, he is my grandpa.” Lu Yi stretched his long legs. He had lost so much weight, and his complexion was quite pale. Looking at his face that was as pale as a ghost, He Yibin felt a strong urge to hit him.
He rolled his eyes at Lu Yi. Then, he looked at Lu Yi seriously, and spoke each word clearly.
“I would advise you to not donate blood to Su Muran anymore. Yan Huan is about to give birth anytime, don’t forget that she also has the same blood type. She definitely has to deliver through a cesarean section, and no one can predict whether any accidents might happen. Even though we have done our preparations well, there are certain things that we must take into consideration.”
“Such as...” He pointed his finger at Lu Yi.
“Don’t forget that you are Yan Huan’s spare blood bank. Su Muran is not the only one with this blood type. Don’t forget that your wife has this blood type as well, and so will your kids. What would happen if they needed your blood, and you couldn’t give them any?”
“I have blood as long as I stay alive.” Lu Yi lifted his lips, so pale that they were tinged with gray. “I’ve got this covered. Tomorrow will be the last time I donate my blood to her, and I will stop doing it after that.”
He Yibin did not believe that the Su family would let Lu Yi go that easily, as he was the only blood supply for Su Muran. His blood donation must keep on going, either until Su Muran found a suitable marrow donor, or until the day she died.
“Thanks for keeping this a secret.” Lu Yi gripped He Yibin’s shoulder.
He Yibin gave him a bitter smile in return.
On the other side of the door, Yan Huan loosened her hand and closed the door gently, like she had never been there.
On the way back home, Yan Huan sat in the car silently. She did not speak a word, looking at the lights of the houses outside. Behind the lights was a desolate night.
Soon, the lights were extinguished one by one.
The whole Sea City started to quiet down. No one would know that such a quiet night would be a sleepless night for so many people.
