Chapter 1729: Pregnant

Those public security officers were already furious; how could they possibly listen to her? "They started trouble at the school in the first place, which was wrong enough, and on top of that, they assaulted police officers. The punishment for this won't be light."

Qiu Shaofeng was stunned.

She looked at Xia Qiu, whose hair had come loose while being pulled by distant relatives of the An family, and her eyes were filled with guilt.

After calming her emotions for quite some time, she stepped toward Xia Qiu: "Sister-in-law, I won't interfere in this matter. Come, I'll take you to get your wounds treated first. They were in the wrong to begin with; whatever happens to them, they deserve it."

Liu Chuxue went straight to the Haidian Branch Bureau and learned the situation from there.

She hadn't expected the people who came to be Qiu Shaohu from the eldest branch of the Qiu family, members of the An family, and several distant relatives from the An side.

Most of them had come along simply because they had received benefits from the An family.

After waiting for Xiao Fu and Xiao's eldest uncle, Liu Chuxue went to the hospital first: "My brother-in-law took my sister to the hospital. I'm worried, so I'll go check on them first."

The hospital wasn't far to begin with, and Liu Chuxue walked quickly, so it didn't take long before she saw Xia Qiu being helped out: "Sister, are you okay?"

A look of joy flashed across Qiu Shaofeng's face: "Liu Chuxue, your sister is pregnant."

Upon hearing "pregnant," Liu Chuxue asked: "What did the doctor say? Did the previous incident affect her?"

Qiu Shaofeng, looking guilty, said: "The doctor said the emotional fluctuation was too great; be extremely careful from now on."

Liu Chuxue's face darkened: "Brother-in-law, given what happened today, what do you plan to do?"

Cornered by his sister-in-law's questioning, Qiu Shaofeng's expression turned very unpleasant.

He didn't want to make excuses for those people; his unpleasant expression was due to their arrogance: "Since they sought their own destruction, I have no choice."

With those words from him, Liu Chuxue finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Sister, do you feel any discomfort? If there's anywhere you feel unwell, you must speak up."

Xia Qiu, who had just snapped out of the shock of the news about her pregnancy, said: "Liu Chuxue, it was so dangerous. If your brother-in-law hadn't rushed over to protect me, this child probably would have..."

As she spoke, tears suddenly fell from her eyes.

Qiu Shaofeng was terrified: "Sister-in-law, the doctor said you can't have such great emotional fluctuations, or it will be bad for the child in your belly."

"It's all my fault. This time, we won't keep this job; we'll just take direct action."

The reason they hadn't gotten rid of this job before was that after finding someone to substitute, she still received half her wages, and with that money, their monthly living expenses were covered.

Besides, Xia Qiu had thought that Chunxiao would be older in a few years, and with Chunxiao's current grades, it would be hard for her to get into university; this job was actually being kept for her.

She hadn't expected that today, not only would the An family get involved, but people from the eldest branch of the Qiu family would get involved as well.

For the sake of having peaceful days ahead, Xia Qiu nodded heavily: "Alright, let's do as you say. It's a good chance to pay back the money owed to Liu Chuxue all at once."

After confirming once more that Xia Qiu was fine, the two of them took Liu Chuxue straight home and then called the school to request leave.

All the way home, Liu Chuxue thought: It's May now; Xia Qiu is over forty days pregnant, so the due date is around January tenth of next year.

She thought: Fortunately, if it had been any later, this child probably wouldn't have been saved.

After all, starting next year, the family planning policy would become much stricter.

Seeing that her sister was truly fine, she didn't stay long: "Sister, don't worry about the matter over there. Rest at home and take care of your body for a few days. Once the matter is resolved, you can go back to school."

Xia Qiu didn't object; after all, since such an incident had just occurred, she didn't want to face her classmates' pointing fingers, so it was better to let the matter settle for a while.
