318 Reunion 13 (1/2)
He closed his eyes, feeling a little uneasy due to the alcohol.
Just as he was about to fall asleep, his mobile phone began to ring all of a sudden. He did not answer the call and only opened his eyes when it rang a second time.
He whipped his mobile phone out from the pocket of his suit and took a look to see that it was an incoming call from overseas.
”Hello,” he answered.
”Hello, is this Mr. Gu Beicheng speaking?” Mei Yangyang asked over the phone while meeting An Xiaoning's eyes.
”Yes, you are?”
”Here's the thing, we're currently at the People's Hospital in M Nation, and we have a huge surprise gift for you left behind by a lady named An Xiaoning. May I ask if you're available to collect it?”
Gu Beicheng was utterly shocked and sat up straight immediately. ”Who… who did you say it was from?” he asked with a frown, unable to believe his ears.
”That's enough, Yangyang, quit playing,” said a familiar voice. An Xiaoning then took over the call and said, ”Beicheng, it's me.”
”Xiao… Xiaoning?” he stuttered in surprise, the frown on his forehead easing.
”Yes, you heard right. We're at the airport now, are you free to pick us up?”
Gu Beicheng stood up immediately. Without asking another question, he zoomed out of the door, catching Ye Xiaotian and Sun Weiwei off guard.
”Brother Xiaotian, what's wrong with him?”
”He loses control of his emotions once he hears An Xiaoning's name. Whatever, leave him be.”
On the way to the airport, all Gu Beicheng had on his mind was a burning question: Am I dreaming?
After taking a look at the call log on his mobile phone, he confirmed it to be true.
It did not matter if it was a prank or not. He would find out once he sees it with his own eyes.
He sped along the roads all the way to the airport.
An Xiaoning had indeed returned to the country with Mei Yangyang.
The first person they tried to call was Jin Qingyan, but they could not get through to his mobile phone. She had already expected that, though. The next person they called was Long Tianze, whose mobile phone was switched off. Lastly, they called Gu Beicheng.
Finally, the call had gone through.
An Xiaoning was currently pregnant for more than four months. In the past two months, she had been administered one or two doses of tocolytic each day and actively cooperated with the doctor. After abiding closely by the doctor's instructions, she was told her fetus was finally stable.
The doctor prescribed her with a few doses of the drug and instructed Mei Yangyang to continue administering it for An Xiaoning regularly when they return to S Nation.
They had come back specifically to break the news to everyone.
It was the best timing in their opinion.
After parking his car, Gu Beicheng scurried inside the airport like a madman and immediately burst into tears at the sight of An Xiaoning.
”Xiaoning?” he called as he quickly strode towards her.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
”Yes.”
”Xiaoning?” Gu Beicheng reached out to cup her face in his hands and confirmed that it was really her.
”Thank you. Thank you for everything. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have made it out alive,” An Xiaoning said as she stepped forward to hug him gently.
Gu Beicheng released her from his embrace and shifted his gaze onto her belly. Momentarily stunned, he asked, ”You… you're pregnant?”
”Yes, you're going to become an uncle. I know you might be upset though,” said An Xiaoning, pursing her lips.
He was indeed appalled, though not to the extreme of being upset. ”To me, the most surprising is that you're alive. Is Jin Qingyan the father of the child?”
”You're asking the obvious. Let's go, let's head back home first. We've yet to eat anything. I'm starving,” said An Xiaoning as she held onto his arm.
”Tell me first, what actually happened?” asked a puzzled Gu Beicheng, who was being dragged away by An Xiaoning. ”I clearly saw you being…”
