A...girl? the Old man asked again, just to be sure he got it right but Chan-yeol nodded, "She's carrying a girl", the Old man said again, he then turned to Ari on the floor, she looked pale and weak yet it did little to hide her beauty, she was still extremely pretty.
"Are you pregnant?" the Old man asked Ari, she slowly nodded in reply.
"I had a dream", she meekly said, the Old man nodded as if he truly understood her.
Gu Jiho abruptly stood, "That's impossible, she's barren!!" he shouted, so everyone turned to look at him, Chan-yeol shook his head, "She's perfectly healthy and as you can see, she's even pregnant"
Jiho refused to believe it, If she was not barren why on earth would he abandon such a beautiful woman for someone as plain looking as Ae-Cha, he started to regret his actions, and he looked down as he battled his emotions.
Ae-Cha could vaguely understand Jiho's emotions, he was regretting what he had done, which made Ae-Cha extremely angry, she immediately had an idea, "The Gu family is cursed to give birth to only boys, did you sleep outside sister?" she said loudly so everyone could hear, their expressions instantly changed, they all looked at Ari, doubt in their eyes. Ari looked at Ae-Cha and replied, "Have I ever left the Gu residence?" she asked, Ae-Cha didn't know what to say, she had forgotten that Ari had never left the Gu residence since she married Jiho, "I was either in bed or resting" Ari continued, what she said made Ae-Cha's cheek turn red instantly because the hidden meaning in Ari's were, "I've slept with your husband more than you", Old man Gu interrupted the discussion saying "Chan-yeol, do a blood test for the fetus and Jiho", Chan-yeol only bowed in reply then slowly walked towards Ari, "Forgive me madam" he said bowing, Ari didn't understand what she was supposed to forgive until she felt a prickling pain in her stomach and it only intensified, she looked at her stomach and saw three needles protrude from her felt, they pierced her stomach and went so deep that they pierced the unborn child as well, the doctor then pressed Ari's pressure point making her lose consciousness instantly, he swiftly caught her then placed her on the only empty chair, he carefully pulled out the needles he had placed on her body and walked towards Jiho, "These are special needles, they rotten if they're placed in a different type of blood" he explained, Jiho nodded indicating he understood, Chan-yeol then gently placed all three needles in different parts of his body, Chan-yeol then hit Jiho's pressure points as well, he caught Jiho but didn't carry him like he did to Ara, he gently laid Jiho on the floor instead then went to Ara and woke her up, it took a while for her to adjust to her environments, when she finally did she saw Jiho laying on the floor while Chan-yeol removed needles from his body, she wondered what was happening but decided to keep shut, Chan-yeol smiled as he saw the needles, he turned to the Old man "The child belongs to Jiho, the girl belongs to the Gu family" he said, smiling brightly, the Old man sighed of relief then turned to Ara and resisted the urge to huge her, a girl!! [If only his wife lived to see this day] he thought as sadness washed over his face but he kept his cool, "Help Jiho" he finally said, he then immediately remembered something, [wasn't this the woman Jiho locked up?] Fear for the child instantly engulfed him.
