Chapter 773
Qiao Anhao stopped entering the passcode to bend down and pick up the sheets of paper .
The late winter wind was quite strong, and the southern one was blowing through the road . Qiao Anhao picked up just three or four sheets when a gust of wind blew the rest in the direction of where Xu Jiamu was standing .
Qiao Anhao chased after them and bent down to pick them up . As she chased after the last two sheets of paper, she walked over to the front of the car, where the papers finally landed . Before she could pick them up, someone bent down to help her get them .
With a word of "Thanks", Qiao Anhao raised her head to see a stiff face, then cried, "Brother Jiamu!"
Xu Jiamu gave a slight nod . Just as he was bout to hand Qiao Anhao the two sheets of paper he picked up, his eyes were drawn to several words on them . He furrowed his brows, then brought the papers towards himself . He looked over them with all seriousness and his hand slightly tightened on the sheet . He raised his head in excitement and then asked in disbelief, "Qiao Qiao, you're pregnant?"
"En . " QIao Anhao gave a gentle nod .
"How long has it been?" Xu Jiamu’s line of sight fell to Qiao Anhao's stomach . It was still quite flat, as though no difference from usual .
Qiao Anhao said, "Only a month . "
"I . . . " Xu Jiamu paused for a moment, then finally followed with, "Bro . . . does he know?"
Qiao Anhao shook her head . "He still doesn't know yet . I only just found out this afternoon . "
"En . " Xu Jiamu gave a nod, then stared at the pregnancy examination results again . He thought back to how his own mother had killed Qiao Anhao's last child, and lowered his head in shame . After a long while, he said, "So from today onward, you have to take good care of yourself . "
Qiao Anhao understood the meaning behind those words .
The first child was lost . And it was her neglect and carelessness that caused it . As for the second child, she definitely wouldn’t allow anything bad to happen .
Qiao Anhao gave an "En" . "Thank you, Brother Jiamu . I'll make sure to be careful . "
"That's good, that's good . " Xu Jiamu repeated it twice . Then he fell silent, not quite knowing what else to say .
Qiao Anhao saw his quietness, and followed suit . After standing there for quite some time, she finally broke the silence . "Brother Jiamu, if there's nothing else, I'd better be off . "
"Yeah, Yeah," he repeated . "The wind is strong and cold . Don't catch a cold . Pregnant women can't eat medicine, so you'd better hurry back . "
"En . " Qiao Anhao stood on the spot without flinching . Her eyes stared straight at the two sheets of paper in Xu Jiamu's hands .
She didn't know what he was thinking about, but he seemed a little distracted .
All Qiao Anhao could do was speak up to remind him . "Brother Jiamu, my check up results . "
"Oh!" he suddenly responded . He hurriedly handed the papers back to Qiao Anhao . For some reason, he seemed to be a little flustered .
"Brother Jiamu, are you alright?"
"I'm fine . " Xu Jiamu shook his head and then said, "You'd better hurry back now . "
"Okay, bye . "
"Bye . "
Qiao Anhao smiled at Xu Jiamu then turned around and walked back towards the entrance of Lu Jinnian's villa .
Xu Jiamu stood on the spot until she entered the house . He stayed in his original position without moving so much as an inch .
