Chapter 175: Chapter 175 Thank You
Su Yi heard this and his expression didn’t change much.
In fact, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say his face remained unchanged; his expression even seemed colder than before.
His voice was also somewhat faint, "I’ve never thought about it. Although I’m not very accomplished, I still have my pride. Why would I hope to find the people who abandoned me?"
He mocked with a laugh, "Find them for what? To wait and hear why they abandoned us in the first place?"
After thinking for a moment, Su Lu said softly, "What if... I mean if, if we weren’t abandoned?"
Su Yi frowned, "Su Lu, what do you mean by that? Do you... do you know something?"
Su Lu did not directly answer his question but continued, "What if... what if we were taken by human traffickers? Maybe they have been looking for us all this time..."
"Then we’ll talk about that when it comes to it. Anyway, if it’s the people who abandoned me, I have no interest in them," Su Yi said.
Before Su Lu could speak, Su Yi seemed to think of something and added, "Su Lu, you better not be too spineless either! Absolutely not!"
What a joke, Su Lu’s life in the Su Family was already miserable enough. And those so-called biological parents, having already abandoned them as siblings, what good would finding them do? It would only add to the sorrow.
Besides, if they were abandoned due to poor conditions, unable to raise them, and were found now... Su Lu’s financial situation was quite good; those so-called biological parents might latch onto her like leeches.
Su Yi sneered in his heart. Su Lu had been ground down enough by Su Yukan and Zhu Xinyan in the Su Family, squeezed like blood from her by Su Yukan for any remaining value, living a life that was far from normal. But at least they weren’t her real parents, which she probably managed to rationalize somehow.
If her real parents were like blood-sucking leeches too, that would be too harsh for her.
If that were the case, Su Yi had zero hope of finding any biological parents.
Seeing Su Yi’s earnest demeanor, his words rushed and fierce, one could not hide the care in his eyes.
Su Lu smiled and nodded, "I understand."
Su Yi stayed with her for quite a while. Despite the awkwardness and occasional discomfort, he remained there without immediately leaving, keeping her company for a good while before leaving the hospital.
After Su Yi left, Su Lu felt much more relieved.
Better not to think too much about biological parents and family... It would only add to her troubles. She might as well get some extra sleep and rest well.
The afternoon check-up was conducted by Professor Zhou himself.
The results were very good, at least for someone in Su Lu’s situation, it was already very encouraging.
"You... you mean..." Su Lu listened to Professor Zhou’s words, her eyes brimming with tears.
Though she had never been particularly tearful, somehow, after having a little one in her belly, she seemed a tad more sentimental.
Professor Zhou nodded, "Yes, there’s a fetal heartbeat."
Professor Zhou pressed a few keys on the machine, then turned the screen towards Su Lu. She saw the regularly pulsing lines, and Professor Zhou played the sound through a speaker.
Su Lu heard the heartbeat.
Tears slid down her cheeks.
"Hey, no crying now; this is good news, you should be happy. Keep your emotions stable," Professor Zhou said.
Su Lu quickly wiped away her tears with her hand, "Yes, yes, I’m not crying, I’m just happy."
"Even if you’re happy, don’t cry. You’ll have more reasons to be happy in the future. Do you want to cry your eyes out?" Professor Zhou said.
Su Lu smiled with a curve to her lips, "I’ll take your advice. Thank you so much for everything."
"Don’t thank me; thank the little one in your belly. The little one is quite strong."
Su Lu took a deep breath, her smile grew wider.
She pondered for a moment, and then asked, "By the way, Professor Zhou, would it be a problem to take a trip out of town for relaxation and recuperation after being discharged next month?"
Professor Zhou looked at her, "Why would that be a problem? Rest and relaxation are always good. When people have the time, they should go out to relax and recoup; it’s part of the healing process."
"It’s just that I’m worried it will be inconvenient to come to you for check-ups while I’m out of town," Su Lu expressed her concern.
Professor Zhou thought for a moment and then said, "As long as there are no special circumstances, it is fine to come to me for a check-up once a month. Now that there’s a fetal heartbeat, and there aren’t many check-ups necessary in early pregnancy. Just eat well, rest well, relax, and have regular check-ups."
Su Lu felt much reassured after hearing this, "Okay, then thank you, Professor Zhou."
With the answer from Professor Zhou, Su Lu naturally planned to arrange her trip to relax with the training team.
Furthermore, she recorded a segment of the fetal heartbeat and played it on a loop.
It was more sleep-inducing than any music.
Originally, Su Lu had planned to make another call, to speak frankly with Dean Li, but after talking to Su Yi, she dismissed the idea.
Biological parents and all that... If they really came looking for her, then she would deal with it. If not, she wasn’t going to actively inquire further.
On the other hand, at Sunshine Orphanage, everything was made new.
Nearly all the furniture had been replaced, and even the children’s outdoor toys like slides and swings in the yard were brand new.
The indoor toys, picture books, tables, chairs, little beds, as well as the children’s clothing and supplies, had all been changed to new ones.
The result was that movers had been bustling in and out of the orphanage for two days.
"Ms. Zhao, Mr. Shen, I really... I really can’t thank you enough,"
Dean Li, clearly a little overwhelmed, looked at the one-million-dollar cheque pushed towards him, "Please rest assured, I will send you the detailed account of how this donation is used, on time, and ensure that every penny is spent on the children. Here, I would like to thank you once again, and on behalf of all the children in the orphanage, I thank you for your kindness."
There was a hint of sleep-deprived fatigue and pallor under Ms. Zhao’s eyes, yet her eyes were red as if she had not rested well and had been crying for a long time. She shook her head, her voice hoarse, "No, it’s me who should thank you, Dean Li. Without you, my Qianqian... my daughter... I can’t imagine what her life would have been like."
Shen Xun gently wrapped an arm around his mother’s shoulders, his own complexion not looking well. They had found the orphanage two days earlier. Knowing that Su Lu’s physical condition was not good, they had not rushed to find her directly but wanted to understand how she had been getting by over the years.
It would have been better not to know, but having found out... Zhao Ying’s eyes were almost crying blind.
