Chapter 331: It Seems Like More Than One Child

Zhou Chenglei didn't dare to drive his motorcycle too fast, and by the time he reached the city, it was already 11 am.

He found a spot to park his motorcycle and, accompanied by Jiang Xia, entered the military hospital to look for Dr. Gao.

The military hospital wasn't crowded with patients, and Zeng Yuan had been transferred to the Ear, Nose, and Throat Department, further reducing the number of patients. She had spent the morning in her office reading a research paper on hearing loss due to eardrum injury, and feeling tired, she decided to take a walk. As she stepped out of the office, she spotted Zhou Chenglei and Jiang Xia in the hospital corridor.

A look of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she exclaimed, "Ah Lei, what brings you here?"

Zhou Chenglei glanced at her and nodded before continuing to walk forward.

Zeng Yuan quickly said, "I've been transferred to the Ear, Nose, and Throat Department. Let me take a look at your ear?"

She had transferred to the Ear Department for him, wanting to understand the current condition of his ear and conduct targeted research based on his injuries, hoping to one day cure his hearing and allow him to return to his position and do what he should be doing, rather than fishing at home every day.

Zhou Chenglei: "No need."

Zeng Yuan: "Do you know that if you don't actively treat it and have regular check-ups, there's a possibility that you might lose hearing in your other ear as well?"

Jiang Xia stopped in her tracks: "Dr. Zeng, will Ah Lei's other ear also be affected?"

Zhou Chenglei gave Zeng Yuan a cold look.

Zeng Yuan averted his gaze and turned to Jiang Xia: "Of course it will if you don't take care of it! Don't you care about your husband's health as a wife?"

She had applied to study abroad for half a year specifically for him, and after returning, she requested a transfer to this hospital to help him regain his hearing.

But what about Zhou Chenglei? He ignored her and instead cherished a woman who didn't care about his health.

Jiang Xia: "..."

In the corridor, a nurse walked by and saw Dr. Zeng, who was usually high and mighty, being scolded until her face turned red and she was almost in tears. The nurse quickly hid in the office, startled.

After Zhou Chenglei finished speaking, he put his arm around Jiang Xia's shoulder and continued walking: "My previous doctor said the impact would be minimal, and it might only affect me when I get old. When people age, they might lose their hearing, their teeth might fall out, and their eyesight might deteriorate. Don't abandon me then."

Jiang Xia gave him a sidelong glance.

"It's really not that serious. It can't be cured, but it's not as bad as she says."

Jiang Xia: "We'll find a doctor to check it out when the time comes."

"Okay, if you don't believe me, you can ask Dr. Gao later."

They soon arrived at Dr. Gao's office, and Zhou Chenglei knocked on the door: "Dr. Gao."

Dr. Gao looked up and, seeing the two of them, smiled: "I heard the sound of magpies early this morning, and I guessed that you must be here to bring good news.

Jiang Xia greeted Dr. Gao with a smile, "Hello, Dr. Gao."

Zhou Chenglei pulled out a chair and helped Jiang Xia sit down. "We're here with good news. Ten days ago, at the Canton Fair, a box fell on her head, and she was unconscious for an entire night. There were signs of threatened miscarriage, so we've come to see you."

Dr. Gao's expression turned serious upon hearing this. "Put your hands here, and I'll check your pulse."

Dr. Gao was skilled in both Western and traditional medicine, but she was especially renowned for her expertise in traditional Chinese medicine.

She checked Jiang Xia's pulse on both hands and then smiled at her. "It seems there's more than one child."

Instinctively, Zhou Chenglei looked at Jiang Xia's abdomen. More than one?

Jiang Xia's eyes widened in surprise. "Twins?"

Without saying a word, Dr. Gao continued to check her pulse. After a while, she looked at Zhou Chenglei, her expression also showing a hint of disbelief. "I estimate there are three."

Jiang Xia was stunned.

Three?

This was completely beyond her imagination!

How could there be so many? Zhou Chenglei's usually stern face froze in surprise. Three?

He looked at Jiang Xia's petite figure—her waist was so slim, and her belly was so flat. Could she really be carrying three children? His heart raced with worry.

Dr. Gao asked, "Does your family have a history of multiple births?"

Jiang Xia was at a loss for words.

She didn't know! Jiang Xia turned to look at Zhou Chenglei.

Zhou Chenglei replied, "Not in my family."

He hadn't heard of any in Jiang's family either.

But after experiencing the war, Jiang's parents and siblings had all passed away early, so who knew if there was any history.

Dr. Gao said, "It's normal not to have a history. It's just that those with a family history of multiple births have a higher genetic probability. The pulse is still weak, so I can't be certain. An ultrasound at this stage won't show anything either. Come back for an ultrasound in two months. The pulse is good now, and there doesn't seem to be any problem. Have you taken any prenatal medicine?"

"The hospital prescribed some, and when I went home, my mother-in-law also made me a fetal protection soup."

Zhou Chenglei told Dr. Gao the names of the medicines prescribed by the hospital and the IV fluids Jiang Xia had been given.

He also provided the recipe for the soup made by Zhou's mother.

Dr. Gao nodded and smiled, "This folk remedy is quite good."

Then she stood up and touched Jiang Xia's head.

The swelling from the previous injury had subsided, but she still immediately felt the spot where Jiang Xia had been hit. "Was this the place that was hit?"

Zhou Chenglei nodded. "Yes."

She gently rubbed Jiang Xia's head. "Does it hurt?"

Jiang Xia replied, "A little."

"There's still some bruising that hasn't faded..."

Zhou Chenglei's face paled. "Will it have any impact? How can it be removed?"

"Don't worry, it will gradually fade on its own."

Jiang Xia asked, "Will it affect the baby?"

Dr. Gao laughed, "No! It didn't hurt your brain, and it's not an abdominal injury. Both you and Ah Lei are so smart; you'll definitely give birth to smart and beautiful children."

Jiang Xia smiled, realizing she had asked a rather silly question.

Dr. Gao smiled, "With the current birth control policy, you're truly blessed to be able to have children. Having triplets in one pregnancy is something many people envy."

Zhou Chenglei only envied those with single births. He was worried that multiple births would be hard on Jiang Xia, and he didn't know if the children would be too small.

"Dr. Gao, what should we pay attention to with multiple births?"

Jiang Xia was also a bit concerned about the current medical technology. "Will triplet babies be born smaller? Is it scary?"
