Chapter 532: Chapter 532

Because her belly was so big, so big that she couldn’t even see her toes anymore, let alone now with all the layers she wore, Song Qiao simply found walking a bit difficult.

Chu Munan got out of the car first, then walked over to Song Qiao’s side, opened the car door and helped her out. As soon as the car door opened, even though she was already wearing as much as she could, Song Qiao still felt a chill coming directly at her.

She had always been particularly sensitive to the cold, and even with multiple layers on, her innately cold nature made her feel very chilly.

Maybe because her belly was so big and her center of gravity a bit unstable, the moment her foot hit the ground, she immediately felt unsteady and fell forward.

As soon as Chu Munan saw this, his heart nearly leapt to his throat. He quickly supported Song Qiao forcefully, and luckily his assistant had also gotten out of the car in time and reacted swiftly. Seeing this, he immediately rushed up to help stabilize Song Qiao together with his boss.

Song Qiao herself had been frightened into a cold sweat, her gloved hand gripping Chu Munan’s firmly, displaying an almost tearful expression, she directly said, "Chu... Chu Munan, please hold me steady... I... I’m afraid of falling..."

Now, she had entrusted her safety entirely to Chu Munan. If it wasn’t for Chu Munan just now, she probably would have fallen.

Her belly was really too big now, she felt walking was already problematic, not to mention it was winter and she had to wear a lot.

If she were to accidentally fall, it would definitely be deadly.

Chu Munan naturally knew what she was worried about, his face showed a tender smile as he quickly reassured her, "I know, and Assistant Chen is also helping you. Don’t worry too much, we’ll walk slowly, no rush."

Song Qiao hummed in acknowledgment, then slowly walked with the support of Chu Munan and Assistant Chen.

Every step was taken with great care, and the two men were also very patient. In fact, Assistant Chen had also been scared into a cold sweat just before, but fortunately, he had come down in time and nothing bad had happened.

Thanks to Chu Munan, the doctor overseeing Song Qiao’s prenatal care was a famous obstetrician who was hard to book an appointment with, but Chu Munan managed to secure one before Song Qiao’s due date. Therefore, Song Qiao could directly come for each prenatal checkup without any issues.

However, during Song Qiao’s first meeting with the doctor conducting her prenatal care, she was quite skeptical of those people’s judgment, as the doctor, although a man, seemed too young. Previously, when Song Qiao visited, she had heard others call this doctor ’Professor Xue’.

And Song Qiao also learned this doctor’s elegant and meaningful name ’Xue Wenbo’.

Xue Wenbo’s office was on the fourth floor, which may not seem high to others, but for Song Qiao, it felt quite high. Even though the hospital had elevators, after walking a few steps, she felt extremely tired and just wanted to sit down.

But thinking of the two little babies in her belly, she clenched her teeth and persisted, walking slowly with the support of Chu Munan and Assistant Chen.

Munan originally wanted to sweep her off her feet, but because Song Qiao was wearing too much and looked like a rolling ball, he dismissed the idea, fearing that if he couldn’t hold her properly, it would be more trouble than it’s worth.

What should have been a short few minutes’ walk, Song Qiao took over ten minutes to complete. When she entered the elevator, she encountered a pregnant woman who was also there for a prenatal checkup, a local from Paris with blonde hair and blue eyes. Probably because foreigners are generally warm-hearted, the pregnant woman saw Song Qiao’s large belly and couldn’t help but smile and ask, "Ma’am, are you about to give birth?"

Song Qiao paused, looked down at her belly, and smiled as she explained, "Not yet, my due date is in over a month."

The pregnant woman was taken aback and looked at her belly a few more times, obviously a bit incredulous since a belly of a woman with more than a month till the due date should not be that big.

The pregnant woman herself was five months pregnant, but her belly was only slightly protruding, totally different from Song Qiao’s.

Song Qiao noticed her confusion and smiled, explaining, "I’m carrying twins, so my belly looks bigger."

The pregnant woman immediately understood, and even her husband felt the same, giving Song Qiao an envious look, probably thinking Munan was Song Qiao’s husband. Noticing Munan’s expensive clothes, the husband, seeing him as a man of status, added a touch of admiration in his gaze and asked in fluent English, "It must be tough, carrying twins, right? My wife feels half-dead with just one."

Song Qiao wanted to clarify that she and Munan were not in that kind of relationship, but before she could explain, Munan had already acknowledged with a hum, glanced at Song Qiao, and although his expression was indifferent, he agreed, "It is tougher, carrying two isn’t the same as one, definitely more tiring."

Song Qiao felt awkward, although Munan wasn’t wrong, why didn’t he clarify their relationship? She would rather have Munan tell people that they were siblings.

Well... although they look nothing alike.

There were quite a few people there for prenatal checkups, and though Munan had called Xue Wenbo in advance, when Song Qiao and he arrived, Professor Xue was still seeing another patient. They waited for about fifteen minutes before entering Professor Xue’s office. Thıs content belongs to 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹·𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾·𝗇𝖾𝗍

In the office, Professor Xue was reviewing another patient’s file when he heard them and looked up at Song Qiao and Munan, a smile immediately spreading across his face, "You’re here, please take a seat. My mother made some ginger tea when I came, would you like some?"

Munan’s expression remained impassive as he helped Song Qiao to sit, then stood up straight and declined directly, "No need, just proceed with Qiaoqiao’s checkup."

Professor Xue raised an eyebrow, called a nurse to serve a glass of water to Song Qiao before addressing Munan, "What’s the hurry? Let Song Qiao sit and rest for a bit. Moreover, it’s been two months since we last met, can’t we chat for a bit?"

Munan, "I think there’s nothing we need to talk about."

Professor Xue remained unflustered, smiling as he said, "How can there be nothing to talk about? We can discuss life, the future, or maybe when you’re planning to marry Song Qiao..."

Song Qiao, "..." What does that have to do with me?
