"What?! Not here?!" Xi Haitang couldn't help but feel a little strange after arriving at Jinjue Group, "Qin Hao, do you know where he went?"
"Uh... I said I was going to pick up you and Xiaochen, but you didn't meet me?!"
Xi Haitang shook his head, "I told him that he wouldn't come to pick us up."
"Well... Haitang, don't worry, maybe you took a side trip. Sit down and rest for a while. I see you are sweating!"
"No, Xiaochen is still waiting for me at the doorman. I'll go back first."
"I'll give it to you!"
"No, no, no, Qin Hao, please do your work, I can just go by myself."
"Then be careful on the road!"
"Ok, I know."
Xi Haitang's trip was in vain, and he quickly took a taxi back to pick up Xiaochen. He called Gu Xijue several times in the car, but no one answered.

After Xi Haitang left, Qin Hao's expression immediately dimmed, and a layer of mist formed between his eyebrows. Damn it, what was Gu Xijue doing? Why didn't he answer the phone?!
An hour ago, Rou'er suddenly said she had a stomachache, which frightened them. Gu Xichao was not here, and it would be bad if she suddenly gave birth prematurely or something. He quickly sent Rou'er to the hospital, but there was no news after that!
Taking out his cell phone, Qin Hao anxiously dialed Gu Xijue's number again, but still no one answered.
Helpless, he had no choice but to send text messages——
Jue, where are you? Contact Haitang quickly. She is looking for you.

Hospital.
Gu Xijue wore sterile hospital clothes and stood in front of Jian Yirou's hospital bed, frowning.
She almost gave birth prematurely, but luckily she was rescued in time.
The doctor gently opened the door of the sterile ward, gave him a look, and the two went out to talk.
"Mr. Gu, Miss Jian's condition is not very good. The baby girl in her belly develops slower than a normal fetus."
"Baby girl?! Aren't doctors now allowed to do baby gender identification casually?!"
The doctor was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile, "Mr. Gu is really good, he can catch my speech disorder at once. Yes, there are regulations in the hospital now, and you can't do gender identification on babies casually, but the reason why I know Miss Jian
She is pregnant with a baby girl, not because of the test done on her, but..."
"But what?!"
"It's because of my mentor, Professor Lin Mingzhe."
"MR Lin, the first obstetrician and gynecologist in China to win the Bauhinia Medical Gold Medal?!"
"Yes, he is my mentor. He performed an in vitro fertilization operation on Miss Jane a few months ago, and I was his assistant."
"In vitro fertilization?!" Gu Xijue's eyes were instantly filled with shock. How could this happen? Rou'er's pregnancy was actually an in vitro fertilization?!
Gu Xijue looked at Jian Yirou on the hospital bed through the glass window. His heart was full of doubts. What was going on?!
There was a dull pain in his temples. He raised his hand and rubbed it gently. The watch slid across his skin inadvertently. The cold metal texture made him wake up instantly. When he lowered his head, he saw that it was already past five o'clock!
Quickly taking out his mobile phone, Gu Xijue took a deep breath, because he had been staying in the sterile ward. In order to protect pregnant women and fetuses, radiation protection measures were taken in the ward, and there was no signal for mobile phones at all.
Only then did she realize that Haitang had called him so many times! She even went to the company! She must be very anxious!
Gu Xijue hurriedly wanted to call her back, but the battery was low and the phone automatically shut down before the line was connected.
Taking off the sterile hospital gown, Gu Xijue rushed out of the hospital quickly. Before leaving, he asked the doctor to help take care of Jian Yirou, who had not yet woken up. He could not stay to take care of her, he had more important things to do!

At half past five, it was the peak traffic period. Gu Xijue was stuck in the heavy traffic and was restless.
Under normal circumstances, he is very patient and seldom gets manic while driving, but at this moment, he wants to rush out and kill people. Today is Haitang and Xiaochen's moving day, although she said that he does not need to pick up their mother and daughter.
, but how could he not go?! If he doesn't catch up today, he will have an uneasy conscience for the rest of his life! He has done so many wrong things, and he cannot make the same mistake again and again!
He honked the horn fiercely, attracting the attention of passers-by on both sides. He didn't take it seriously. He didn't care about what they were doing. What he cared about was how to rush out of this damn traffic jam quickly and find Haitang and his daughter!
On the other side, in the opposite direction, about 1,500 meters away from Gu Xijue, Xi Haitang and Xiaochen were also trapped in the taxi.
"Mommy, I'm so hungry!"
"Uh... Mommy, check if there is anything to eat in the bag." Xi Haitang lowered his head and rummaged through the bag and pulled out half a bag of biscuits. "Xiaochen, would you like to eat this? First, wait until there is no traffic jam.
Come on, at the next intersection, Mommy will go to the cake shop to buy you something delicious."
"Well, okay, I'll eat this first." Xiaochen was very obedient. He picked up the biscuit and took a few bites. He raised his head and asked again, "Mommy, are you hungry? Do you want to eat?"
"If you're not hungry, Mommy won't eat. Xiaochen can just eat by herself."
"Oh well."
Xiaochen bit the biscuit very slowly and looked bored, "Mommy, the traffic is really bad. It's not even so congested in New York. Do you think it's because there are so many Chinese people and they are so special?"
If you have money, you can buy so many cars, why are you like this?!"
"Uh..." Xi Haitang was stunned by the question. This question was really difficult to answer!
"Xiaochen, what are you thinking about in your little head all day long? At your age, you should be thinking about what kind of ice cream tastes delicious and what color skirt is beautiful!"
Xiaochen shrugged, "I'm not interested in those."
Xi Haitang sighed softly, thinking that Xiaochen might have inherited her smart mind from her grandfather. Otherwise, why would she always think about issues related to the world economy at such a young age?
Xiaochen was chewing biscuits and looking out of the car window. Suddenly, she shouted, "Mommy, Mommy, there is someone running wildly on the opposite road!"
"What rush?"
"Let's go for a run! I must have gone for a run because I couldn't stand the slow traffic! Mommy, let's go for a run too, it's much faster than taking a car!" Xiaochen was a little eager to try.
Xi Haitang was speechless. Do you want to run with your luggage?!
