"Alright," the doctor said, opening the wound. Seeing the gruesome, rotten flesh, he angrily made way for Fu Wenwen.
Fu Wenwen nodded, took the doctor's place, picked up a scalpel, and without hesitation, cut away the mass of rotten flesh before healing it with her ability.
The doctor stood by, observing Fu Wenwen's actions. He hadn't expected her to be so ruthless, removing all the rotten flesh. This was equivalent to a piece of flesh disappearing...
He wanted to warn her, but saw Fu Wenwen looking at the scalpel, unsure what to do. She twisted her wrist, then put down the scalpel and picked up forceps. She then extracted the decayed bullet from the lumbar spine.
"How did you do that?" the doctor exclaimed, stunned.
He looked at Fu Wenwen in disbelief. Fu Wenwen glanced at the doctor. "That's how."
She had an ability, and could easily locate the bullet, avoiding all nerves, and directly finding the one surrounded by them.
Extracting it was simple.
For her, it was easy, but for the doctor, it was impossible.
After leaving some of her ability in Elder Mr. Bai's wound, Fu Wenwen handed the sutures to the doctor.
"I'll leave the rest of the stitching to you."
The doctor stared blankly at Fu Wenwen, took the needle from her hand, and stepped forward to stitch up Elder Mr. Bai's wound.
Seeing that Elder Mr. Bai's wound was sutured and observing his condition, Fu Wenwen turned and left the operating room.
"Wenwen, how is my father?" Bai Zhanpeng anxiously met her, asking with concern.
"Girl, how is he?" Elder Mr. Lu also approached, looking at Fu Wenwen.
Fu Wenwen smiled at them. "He's fine. The bullet has been removed. He just needs three months of rest."
"Really? That's great!" Bai Zhanpeng exclaimed, covering his face.
When Bai Zining and Bai Ziling heard that their grandfather was undergoing surgery, they rushed back from their work units. Seeing Bai Zhanpeng crying with his hands on his face, they thought their grandfather was in critical condition.
"Dad, where's Grandpa?"
"How is Grandpa? Is he okay?"
"He's fine, your grandfather is fine!" Bai Zhanpeng looked at his two sons, wiped away his tears, and smiled at them.
"Wenwen, are you alright?" Elder Mr. Lu asked Fu Wenwen as she walked towards him, noticing her pale complexion and feeling worried.
"Grandpa, I'm fine." Fu Wenwen had used a lot of her ability to save Elder Mr. Bai's life and to heal his rotten flesh.
Her ability was depleted, and she felt a bit weak.
"Zhanpeng, take good care of your father. I'll take Wenwen back first," Elder Mr. Lu said to Bai Zhanpeng, preparing to take Fu Wenwen back to rest.
"Uncle Lu, I'll escort you," Bai Zhanpeng immediately offered.
"No, no, you stay here and keep an eye on that stubborn old man, don't let him push himself," Elder Mr. Lu instructed, then led Fu Wenwen downstairs.
Walking through the corridor, Fu Wenwen saw several pregnant women. Looking at the sign that read 'Obstetrics and Gynecology,' Fu Wenwen suddenly thought of the little bean in her belly.
"Grandpa, since we're at the hospital, I'd like to have a check-up," Fu Wenwen said to Elder Mr. Lu with a smile.
"What kind of check-up do you want?" Elder Mr. Lu asked curiously.
He almost said that she herself was a doctor, but remembering the saying 'a doctor cannot treat themselves,' Elder Mr. Lu didn't say anything further.
He was just curious why Fu Wenwen would want to go to obstetrics and gynecology for a check-up.
Fu Wenwen shifted her gaze to her abdomen. Elder Mr. Lu was initially bewildered, but then a heavily pregnant woman walked past him, and Elder Mr. Lu had a flash of inspiration.
"You... you you..." Realizing a possible reason, the agitated Elder Mr. Lu stammered nervously, unable to speak.
"I'll go get checked first," Fu Wenwen winked at Elder Mr. Lu. Elder Mr. Lu quickly followed Fu Wenwen to register and accompany her for a blood draw.
Fu Wenwen sat calmly on the chair, while Elder Mr. Lu paced back and forth anxiously, waiting for the results.
"Fu Wenwen!" As soon as the blood test results were out, Elder Mr. Lu anxiously asked.
"How is it?"
Fu Wenwen handed the report to the obstetrician, glancing at her and then at Elder Mr. Lu beside her. The doctor looked shocked.
Elder Mr. Lu glanced at the doctor and knew she had misunderstood. Just as he was about to explain, Fu Wenwen said with a smile.
"Your mind was quite active just now! I'm curious what you were thinking?"
"Ahem, who is he to you?" the doctor asked, looking at Fu Wenwen and Elder Mr. Lu.
"She is my granddaughter-in-law," Elder Mr. Lu glared at the doctor, thinking her mind was so filthy!
Knowing she had misunderstood their relationship, the doctor coughed awkwardly.
"Congratulations, you are pregnant. However, you are still in the early stages, so be careful not to do heavy work."
"Okay." Fu Wenwen took back the report and handed it directly to Elder Mr. Lu.
"Oh my! Wonderful, wonderful!" Elder Mr. Lu took it excitedly, looking at the words 'Pregnancy' written on it.
On the way home, his eyes kept drifting to Fu Wenwen's abdomen.
"The Lu family has an heir!" Elder Mr. Lu said with a full face of smiles. Upon returning home, he immediately shared the news with Lu Jingyao, Luo Siqi, and others.
"What?"
"Wenwen is pregnant?"
Lu Jingyao and Luo Siqi were overjoyed. Like Elder Mr. Lu, they looked at Fu Wenwen excitedly.
Lu Zean, holding Lu Chengyu's hand, happened to walk in.
Hearing that Fu Wenwen was pregnant, Lu Zean strode up to her.
"Mom, am I going to have a younger brother or sister?"
"Yes, from now on, An'an will be a big brother."
Fu Wenwen kissed Lu Zean. "An'an, are you happy?"
"Mom, if it's a boy, can I teach him to do somersaults?" Lu Zean asked Fu Wenwen seriously.
"Of course," Fu Wenwen smiled. "But you have to be careful."
"Then what if it's a girl..." Lu Zean paused, his little head working hard to think of things he could do with his sister...
"You can read stories to your sister, or play dolls with her..." Luo Siqi's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing that it might be a girl.
If it were a miniature version of Fu Wenwen...
Her restless heart was already imagining how she would dress them up, mother and daughter.
Seeing Luo Siqi's gaze, Fu Wenwen understood instantly. Her mother's desire to dress her up was stirring again.
"What's going on? Everyone looks so happy." Lu Chengsen saw everyone with excited smiles on their faces as soon as he returned home.
"I'm going to be a great-grandfather!"
"I'm going to be a grandfather!"
"I'm going to be a grandmother!"
"I'm going to be an uncle!"
"I'm going to be a big brother!"
The four elders and one child, seeing Lu Chengsen, couldn't wait to announce the news.
"..." Lu Chengsen froze for a moment, his whole being seemed to freeze, his gaze becoming vacant.
