Maximize Interest, My Money Grows Infinitely

"It's not from Wanbao Hall," Chen Cheng replied, "I asked the kitchen at the villa to prepare it for you."

The two sisters remembered the villa that started their relationship with Chen Cheng and instantly understood. Xia Yubing asked, "Isn't it a bother to them?"

"Not at all, it's just a matter of saying a word."

As the three of them were chatting, a female doctor wearing a white coat came in, "Hello Ms. Xia, I'm your attending physician, Li Mei."

"Hello, Dr. Li."

Li Mei sat across from Xia Yubing, "Ms. Xia, let's start today's prenatal examination. Don't be nervous, the whole process will be very smooth."

She took out a tablet and asked, "Did you test before coming to our hospital?"

"Just with a test strip, no blood drawn," Xia Yubing replied, "It showed two lines."

"Alright, then we'll do a blood test later." Li Mei continued, "When was your last menstrual period?"

Xia Yubing thought about it, "Around the 6th of last month."

"Okay, our initial estimate for your due date is in March next year." Li Mei recorded on the tablet, "How are you feeling? Any discomfort?"

Xia Yubing shook her head, "No discomfort at the moment, just a better appetite than before."

"Change in appetite is normal in early pregnancy, eat whatever you feel like without deliberately restricting yourself, but pay attention to balanced nutrition," Li Mei explained, "Is morning sickness severe?"

"It's manageable, I occasionally feel a bit nauseous but haven't vomited."

"That's good." Li Mei nodded, "We'll conduct some routine checks next."

"Okay."

Xia Yubing pursed her lips and asked the crucial question, "Um... Dr. Li..."

"What's the matter?"

"I want to ask, I didn't know I was pregnant recently, but still had... relations with... my husband," Xia Yubing said embarrassedly, "Will this have any impact?"

Li Mei smiled warmly, "Ms. Xia, you don't need to worry, this situation is very common. Many women don't realize they're pregnant in the early stages, so they continue to have normal marital relations. Generally, in early pregnancy, as long as there are no symptoms like abdominal pain, bleeding, etc., moderate sexual activity won't affect the fetus."

Hearing the doctor's reassurance, Xia Yubing visibly relaxed, and Chen Cheng secretly felt relieved too.

Li Mei continued, "However, as the pregnancy progresses, especially into the second and third trimester, it's advisable to reduce the frequency and intensity of intercourse and pay attention to positions to avoid pressure on the abdomen. If you have any questions or discomfort, feel free to consult me."

"Okay, thank you, Dr. Li."

Li Mei looked at Chen Cheng, "Sir, your wife is pregnant now, if you have needs in this regard, pay attention to the way and approach."

Chen Cheng blinked, momentarily not understanding the meaning behind Li Mei's words.

"Don't be too demanding, be sufficiently considerate of your wife."

"Ah... I'll be careful," Chen Cheng came to his senses.

"If needed, you can purchase some items, like cups."

"Okay."

Tong Jialu beside was stifling laughter, as was Chen Cheng, "Okay doctor, I'll be mindful."

Li Mei smiled slightly, and didn't continue the topic, instead explaining the next examination process:

"First, we'll conduct a detailed blood test for Ms. Xia, including blood routine, liver and kidney function, thyroid function, infectious disease screening, etc., to ensure all her physical indicators meet pregnancy requirements."

"Then, we'll do a urine test to rule out urinary tract infections. Finally, and most importantly, we'll do an ultrasound to observe the fetus's development, including the heartbeat, size, and placental position."

Xia Yubing listened attentively, nodding occasionally. Chen Cheng held her hand throughout, providing silent support and encouragement.

Tong Jialu pulled out her phone and recorded the key points the doctor mentioned, planning to study them carefully later.

"Once the results are in, I'll come back to discuss the next steps with you," Li Mei said as she stood up and called a nurse, "Ms. Xia, she will accompany you throughout the examination."

"Alright."

After Li Mei left, Xia Yubing followed the nurse out ahead.

Tong Jialu, seeing the room was empty, nudged Chen Cheng, "Brother Cheng, I think you don't need those things Dr. Li mentioned."

"What are those?"

"I miss you, call me." Tong Jialu gestured.

Chen Cheng chuckled, "Seems like you missed me, right?"

"Yeah, do the math yourself, it's been so long since you've touched me." Tong Jialu pouted.

"I've been busy, haven't I?" Chen Cheng walked towards the door, "Maybe some other day."

"There's no better day than today~ Hey! Brother Cheng~ Wait for me!"

The VIP service at Hu Mu Family is very thorough, with nurses accompanying them all the way, guiding them to different departments, and eliminating the need to queue. During the medical check-up, they even provide explanations, helping the first-time mother, Xia Yubing, learn a lot.

Following the nurse's lead, Xia Yubing first arrived at the blood collection room.

The blood collection room is inviting, with soft lighting helping people relax.

A young girl in a nurse's uniform greeted them with a smile, skillfully preparing the blood collection tools.

Xia Yubing felt slightly nervous and instinctively tightened her grip on Chen Cheng's hand. Chen Cheng gently patted the back of her hand, reassuring her, "Don't worry, it won't be worse than a mosquito bite."

The nurse softly tied a tourniquet on Xia Yubing's arm, quickly found the vein, and swiftly inserted the blood collection needle.

Xia Yubing couldn't help frowning, while Chen Cheng sympathetically pressed her head against his shoulder, softly saying, "It'll be over soon."

Soon, several tubes of blood were collected, and the nurse pressed a cotton ball on the puncture site, advising Xia Yubing to apply slight pressure.

Next, they proceeded to the routine urine test area. The nurse handed Xia Yubing a clean container and instructed her on the method of collecting midstream urine.

Xia Yubing entered the restroom and quickly completed the collection.

The nurse carefully stored the sample, placing it in a dedicated testing box.

Finally, it was time for the ultrasound examination.

The ultrasound room was simple yet comfortable, with an advanced ultrasound machine in the room's center.

Xia Yubing lay on the examination bed, as the nurse helped her lift her clothes and applied the gel evenly on her abdomen.

The doctor then activated the ultrasound machine, gently placed the probe on Xia Yubing's belly, and began to examine carefully.

On the screen, a tiny embryo slowly appeared clearly. The doctor moved the probe while focusing on the screen and sometimes noted data on the record board beside.

"Doctor, why don't I hear the heartbeat sound?" Xia Yubing, feeling nervous, turned to look at the screen, "Is something wrong with me..."

The doctor smiled warmly and explained, "Ms. Xia, don't worry. It's only about three weeks now, and the heartbeat generally appears around 42 days."

Only then did Xia Yubing feel relieved.

The doctor continued operating the ultrasound machine, carefully checking the condition of the fetus.

"The fetal position is good, size matches the gestation period, everything looks normal from the imaging. It's a single pregnancy."

After completing the examination, the doctor removed the probe from Xia Yubing's belly, "Come back for a follow-up in a few weeks, and you'll be able to hear a clear heartbeat then."

Xia Yubing nodded, "Thank you, Doctor."

After finishing all the check-ups, the three returned to the VIP waiting area for some rest.

The nurse brought fresh fruits and snacks, along with some prenatal care materials.

"Sis, look, there's a prenatal yoga class here. Do you want to sign up?" Tong Jialu asked excitedly while flipping through the materials.

Xia Yubing glanced at it, "Let's wait for the doctor's advice and see how things go."

"That's right!"

Before long, Li Mei approached with the examination report, "Ms. Xia, congratulations, all the test results are normal."

She handed the report to Xia Yubing, "Here's your prenatal examination report, you can take it home for detailed reading. Going forward, you just need to maintain a good mood, have regular routines, take folic acid on time, and come to the hospital regularly for prenatal check-ups."

Looking at the report in her hand, Xia Yubing's eyes filled with tears.

She turned to Chen Cheng, "Honey, we're having our baby~"
