Triplets

"Congratulations, you're pregnant with triplets!"

The doctor who performed an ultrasound on Mi Xiaomi's abdomen smiled.

"What?"

Mi Xiaomi sat up in shock. "Triplets? Are you mistaken?"

"There's no mistake. There are indeed three fertilized eggs, and they are all well-developed."

The doctor showed Mi Xiaomi the photograph of the ultrasound.

Sure enough, in the photo, there were three plump fertilized eggs like grapes.

Mi Xiaomi had mixed feelings as she walked out of the examination room with the ultrasound report.

Suddenly, her head started to hurt as if someone had hit it with a hammer. She quickly took out a bottle of medicine from her backpack. Her hands trembled as she poured one out. Just as she was about to put it into her mouth, she instantly thought of the fetus. She touched her stomach and put the medicine back into the bottle. She gritted her teeth and endured the intense pain in her head.

After about twenty minutes, her head, which had been ravaged by pain, finally returned to normal.

She wiped the sweat from her brow and transferred from the department of gynecology to the department of neurology.

"Doctor Chen, I'm pregnant now. Will taking this kind of painkillers affect the development of the fetuses?"

Mi Xiaomi held the medicine bottle and asked the doctor.

"You're pregnant? You have to know that without surgery, you can at most live for a year and a half. Also, your head will hurt more and more as the tumor grows. How can you survive without painkillers?"

Doctor Chen looked at Mi Xiaomi in surprise.

"No matter how unbearable it is for me, it will only be a year and a half. However, my mother has to endure the pain of losing her daughter for a long time. If I can keep a child for her, she will not be so miserable."

Mi Xiaomi's tone was flat, but her eyes were filling up with a thin layer of tears.

Her mother gave birth to her without marriage and had been raising her alone.

She was her mother's lifeline. If she died, her mother might not be able to live too.

That was why she had started her ill-intentioned plan on that dark and windy night. She had forced herself onto an extremely handsome man. She wanted her bloodline to continue and give her mother something to hold onto.

However, she did not expect herself to be so strong that she could have triplets.

"Sigh…"

Doctor Chen sighed. "I heard from my senior that Country M released a painkiller for tumors that pregnant women can take. I'll get him to mail some over. Try taking it."

"Thank you, Doctor Chen, and thank you on behalf of my babies."

Mi Xiaomi rubbed her belly and said gently.

"I hope that in this year, neurology surgery will be advanced enough that it can help you remove this tumor. Before that happens, you must be alive and well."

Doctor Chen looked at Mi Xiaomi tenderly and reminded her.

"I'll try my best to stay alive. I hope that my three babies can grow up with the company of their mother."

Mi Xiaomi's voice was slightly choked up.

"Three babies? You're pregnant with triplets?"

Doctor Chen was shocked.

"Yeah."

Mi Xiaomi nodded.

"Let's decrease the number of fetuses. Normal people can't even bear triplets. You're a patient with a malignant tumor, how can you have triplets?"

Doctor Chen said anxiously.

"Doctor Chen, it's natural selection. The fact that they can come into my womb means that I can conceive them. Didn't you say that I can only live for a year and a half at most? Why don't I give them a try?"

Mi Xiaomi smiled and said, "My family only had a single lineage for multiple generations. Up till now, we have accumulated about one hundred and thirty houses and twenty shops for rent. If I don't give birth to a few more children to inherit the family property, I would be embarrassed that I have to go down and meet my ancestors so early, haha."

"You're really…"

Doctor Chen was very familiar with Mi Xiaomi's stubbornness. He knew that he could not convince her, so he could only say, "I'll introduce my gynecologist friend to you. The two of us will cooperate and treat you together and let's see if we can let you successfully give birth to three healthy babies."

"Thank you, Doctor Chen."

Mi Xiaomi was so touched she almost broke into tears.

Ever since she was diagnosed with a brain tumor, Doctor Chen had given her the greatest warmth and concern.

He was the only one who cared about her. Because she was afraid that her mother would break down if she found out about this situation, she hid her illness. She didn't even tell her best friend, afraid that she would accidentally leak it.

"You're welcome. You can just let the three babies address me as Grandpa Chen then."

Doctor Chen looked at Mi Xiaomi kindly and gently. "Actually, I have my own selfish motives. I want to witness the miracle of a brain tumor patient giving birth to three babies."

"Doctor Chen, you will witness it!"

Mi Xiaomi clenched her fist and made a gesture of encouragement. "When the time comes, they will definitely call you Grandpa Chen sweetly."

"You can do this Mi Xiaomi!"

Doctor Chen cheered Mi Xiaomi on.
