5 Sway with Willowy Motions

When An Shijie received his daughter's medical examination sheet, he was confused by the doctor's statement. "Your daughter is pregnant, but her progesterone index is low. Hence, you should ask her husband to come over for a check up, so that we can determine the risks," the doctor had informed him.

Pregnant!

Husband?

An Shijie tried hard to hide his shock and confusion, and after he answered a random question that he had already forgotten what exactly it was, he stumbled back to the ward. At that time, the ward was full of people and everyone was seeing An Qi off.

An Qi was looking much better. Initially, An Shijie thought that this was because he had taken good care of her, but it did not cross his mind that the glow on An Qi's face was actually a maternal glow from her pregnancy!

"An Qi, come on out!" Before An Qi took her father's arm excitedly, she was frightened by the low and solemn tone in his voice.

From behind them, a group of patients were staring at them.

"Explain to me what's going on. Just now, in the doctor's office, I was disgraced by you!" An Shijie was furious.

After all, he had been a righteous man all of his life, and there was never a stain on his name that was worthy of any criticism from outsiders. So, naturally, he did not want his biological daughter to disgrace his name in such a way!

During the years that An Qi had been abroad, rather than learning something useful, it seemed that she had only brought home these little dirty tricks! Now, it seemed that Xiaonan's mother was right in saying that daughters should be kept close.

An Qi bowed her head and picked up the torn pieces of the medical examination papers that had just been scattered by An Shijie. One of the pieces made her heart beat so fast that it felt like her heart might explode. She thought of many things in a panic...

I'm pregnant?

My first time got me pregnant?

I don't even know who the man is, yet I am pregnant with his child?

"Was it Yu Hao? Bring him to me! I'll kill that shameless man, as he dared to lay hands on my daughter!" An Shijie was still jumping up and down in anger and scolding her.

However, An Qi was not bothered much, as she was used to her father behaving this way. What mattered most now was her figuring out how to deal with this innocent life that she was now carrying!

Just when An Qi was at a loss of what to do, An Shijie touch An Qi's shoulder, forcing An Qi to face him as he said, "Also, the doctor said that you have low progesterone. If this child is Yu Hao's, now that you have parted ways with him, I advise you to abort the baby as soon as possible."

His words caused An Qi to feel very uncomfortable, so she grabbed her handbag and gave an apologetic look at her father, then rushed straight into the bathroom at the end of the corridor. She was already showing signs of nausea that were related to the early stages of pregnancy.

As An Shijie took a deep breath, his eyes showed his infinite grief. In reality, the child was his grandson, and he did not wish for An Qi to terminate the pregnancy. But, neither did he wish to see An Qi be discriminated against for being a single mother.

Thus, he had no choice but to suggest the abortion. He had no idea that this would cause his daughter to once again leave him to flee abroad!

Five years later, in the international airport, two figures, a mother and her daughter, caused a stir among the passengers.

"Wow, where is this living doll from? You are so beautiful, little girl!" a fellow passenger exclaimed. "I just heard the broadcast message, indicating that a plane from Paris had just landed. Little girl, are you a mixed-race baby? Otherwise, how could you be so cute?"

An Yufei was accustomed to such praise. "Please, don't praise me for my beauty, as it only proves that my father's and mother's genes are good! If you want to praise me, please look at my character, such as my diligence and good efforts. Thank you..."

After An Yufei had finished speaking, she did not forget to curtsy as a farewell gesture, which melted everyone's hearts.

"Yufei, let's go," An Qi dragged said as she along their suitcases. An Yufei smiled politely, then quickened ran over to her mother. She then took her smaller suitcase from her mother's hand and struggled with it out of the airport.

"She's really a good and independent child!" an onlooker observed. "I wish our child become was so well-behaved!"

"Did you see her mother? She's also a beauty. Moreover, unlike some influential people, who want the world to know of their arrivals and flaunt that they have powerful forces supporting them, this woman and her daughter took a simple taxi…" another onlooker said.

Several housewives marveled at An Yufei's beauty, while watching the mother and daughter leave. They all sighed secretly, envy filling their hearts.

However, An Qi and An Yufei did not hear the praises. In front of her mother, An Yufei always put on a cute expression, as if her mother needed her protection.

She then asked, "Mom, are we going back to my grandfather's house now?"

"Uh..." An Qi did not know how to answer her daughter's question.

In fact, just like five years ago, she was returning home without informing anyone beforehand, except for Dong Manman. If she had to choose where to stay at the moment, she would definitely not choose the An family's old house.

An Yufei seemed to understand her mother's dilemma, so she hurriedly changed the subject. "Oh, I know… We must be going to Aunt Manman's house! That's great, as I haven't seen her since she came over on her vacation. I've really missed her!"

An Qi gazed at the excited An Yufei. Shei found her daughter's statement odd, as An Yufei hardly mentioned Manman before this moment. Moreover, she had assumed that An Yufei was too young to even remember Manman staying with them on her vacation.

Thus, she was impressed at her daughter's good memory! Unlike her daughter, An Qi could barely find her cell phone most days, let alone recall an incident that happened two or three years ago! Maybe this child took after her father after all!

An Qi put her hands on her forehead, informed the driver of Dong Manman's address, then got lost in her memories of that man. For the past five years, whenever she tried to recall who that man was for the sake of her daughter, her head would ache terribly.

All she recalled was the chandelier reflecting the moonlight, while she was swaying on the dance floor with willowy motions…
