Chapter 812: Chapter 813: It’s Only Right to Hold You
The doctor smiled, “This is a normal situation because the baby is continually growing and there are two in your belly, so it’s inevitable that some nerves will get compressed after the placental space becomes insufficient, leading to chest tightness and a feeling like you can’t breathe properly. Some people might also experience swelling in their feet and legs, but this too is normal, so don’t worry.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Qiangwei responded with sudden realization, “So that’s what it is.”
“Yes.”
“Thank you.” She smiled, took the medical report, and left the hospital together with Qin Sijue.
Just as they turned around, the doctor added, “Oh, right!”
Hearing this, the two already at the door turned back to look at the doctor, “Mrs. Qin, you have twins in your belly, so you might give birth prematurely. You must be cautious, and come to the hospital immediately if there are any abnormalities.”
Listening to the doctor’s words, Qin Sijue and Gu Qiangwei looked at each other, then nodded, “I understand.”
Leaving the maternity ward, from the outpatient building to the hospital’s garden was only a short distance, yet Gu Qiangwei felt her legs were extremely heavy.
“What’s wrong?” Qin Sijue paused, noticing her significantly slower pace.
Gu Qiangwei frowned, “I feel so tired…”
She didn’t know what was wrong lately, walking just a little bit made her legs feel like they couldn’t move at all.
She had never felt this way before, could it be because her belly had grown larger?
Counting the time, the baby was already seven months, and her belly was growing larger day by day.
Seeing her with a big belly, Qin Sijue felt distressed.
When her belly wasn’t so pronounced, he could carry her, but now with such a big belly, carrying her on his back was definitely not an option.
“I’ll carry you.”
Saying so, he actually bent down and carried her horizontally in his arms.
Although she had gained close to twenty pounds, Qin Sijue held her effortlessly.
Nevertheless, Gu Qiangwei felt a bit embarrassed, considering there were many people in the hospital. The moment he picked her up, it immediately drew many astonished looks, and of course, some envious ones as well.
“No need, just put me down on that bench over there, and I’ll rest a bit.”
Qin Sijue, however, did not agree and assertively replied, “You are my wife, and it’s only natural for me to hold you. What is there to be afraid of?”
Gu Qiangwei glanced at him and finally could not resist him, letting him carry her all the way to the parking garage.
In the car, Gu Qiangwei still felt her legs were extremely tired, even though she hadn’t walked much at all, mostly being in the car, with only the short distance from the parking lot to the outpatient clinic requiring her to walk.
Out of curiosity, she couldn’t help but bend over to lift her skirt, revealing a pair of slender, fair legs.
But at this sight, she immediately became stunned.
Qin Sijue didn’t know what she was doing, so he instinctively looked over as well, and at that glance, his brow furrowed and his expression changed drastically.
Gu Qiangwei’s legs were noticeably swollen.
“What’s going on?”
He reached out, lifted her leg, and placed it on his own lap, unable to understand why her leg was so swollen.
No wonder she felt extremely tired. It turned out her legs were swollen, and she didn’t even know it.
“I don’t know, but it shouldn’t be a problem, right? The doctor said that swelling is also a normal phenomenon.”
She looked up, and her clear eyes met Qin Sijue’s.
His eyes were deep, full of pain and concern.
But remembering what the doctor said, it seemed they could only wait until the children were born.
