Chapter 573: Side Story: The Pulse of Joy!

Shen Yan rushed to the film and television city less than two days after returning to Shen City.

Qi Si was sporting a new round of scowls.

She really wanted to persuade Shen Yan to quit the entertainment circle and choose another industry.

Shen Yan just smiled and asked Qi Si, “If I’m not in the entertainment circle anymore, I would certainly be entering the research institute to do research day and night.”

The thought of researchers locking themselves up in the institute for months on end made Qi Si’s face even gloomier, “The entertainment industry is quite good, you get to interact with more people, it’s better than the tedious research to keep your emotions stable.”

Shen Yan was the kind of person who could endure loneliness, even if it meant staying by herself for a year and a half.

Seeing Qi Si’s reaction, Shen Yan found it amusing again.

At least the film and television city was better than secluding herself in the mountains, and Qi Si could visit the set any time he wanted.

Remembering that Shen Yan had previously mentioned worrying about affecting others, Qi Si suppressed his impulse and only visited the set every two days.

Even then, Shen Yan felt he came too often.

After being rejected a few times, Qi Si’s sense of crisis intensified.

Those young, fresh-faced actors standing next to Shen Yan looked even more unpleasant to him.

The young actors also consciously stayed far away from Shen Yan, fearing that the Vinegar King would target them and ruin their careers.

Shen Yan was quite helpless.

On the day of the wrap-up, Shen Yan was dragged to a celebration, and Qi Si, who had originally come to pick up his wife early, was not happy when the crew took his wife away first.

Having interacted with them often, some of the crew were no longer afraid of Qi Si’s cold demeanor. As long as Shen Yan was present, not even the fiercest tiger could unleash its anger, nor would it randomly vent on others.

Once inside the private room, several major investors and producers were sitting inside, and some actresses willing to climb the ladder took the initiative to approach. Director Jiang only took responsibility for bringing them over and wouldn’t force anyone.

It was all based on voluntary engagement.

Everyone was very harmonious; there was no coercion involved.

Naturally, no one dared to mess with Shen Yan.

A joke.

The stoic god was waiting outside—who would dare to court death?

However, there were still those who took the opportunity to network with Lady Qi, frequently toasting to Shen Yan.

The other party was polite in their toasting, and Shen Yan didn’t mind, so she drank a few more glasses.

Seeing her drink, everyone came forward to toast.

Shen Yan gestured with her hand, and everyone retreated with their cups.

The other artists saw this and thought to themselves, this is the weight of status!

With just one look from Shen Yan, these people didn’t dare take another step forward.

Having drunk a bit, Shen Yan felt uncomfortable and stood up to go to the restroom outside. She tried to vomit several times but couldn’t bring anything up.

After a while, Zhong Wei finally found her, “Shen Yan, are you alright? Brother Li was worried when you didn’t return for so long and asked me to check on you.”

“I feel like vomiting but can’t, just need to rest a bit and I’ll be fine.”

“Feel like vomiting?” Zhong Wei was startled and quickly asked, “Should we go to the hospital?”

“I just drank a little too quickly,” there was no need to make a fuss at the hospital.

“Have you had this kind of situation before?”

Shen Yan shook her head.

Zhong Wei was worried that Shen Yan might have a medical issue. If something happened to Shen Yan, the stoic god outside wouldn’t hesitate to flay them alive.

So Zhong Wei’s concern wasn’t just for Shen Yan, but also for their own safety, “Let’s still go to the hospital. Isn’t President Qi waiting outside? I’ll go back and speak with Director Jiang and the others; you should go ahead.”

“That’s not a good idea…”

“What’s not good with that? If you’re not feeling well, can everyone still force you to stay and continue drinking? I’ll call Xiao Zhao in.”

Zhong Wei didn’t wait for Shen Yan to respond and ran outside quickly. Xiao Zhao came in shortly after.

Seeing Shen Yan’s pale face, Xiao Zhao grew even more anxious, “Yanyan, I’ll inform President Qi.”

“No need, we can just go out now,” Shen Yan didn’t let Xiao Zhao greet Qi Si, to avoid him barging in.

“People might think something happened to her.”

“That would get everyone all worked up and scared, right?”

“Then I’ll help you.”

Shen Yan laughed and said, “It’s not like I can’t walk.”

She just wanted to vomit.

But couldn’t get it out.

Shen Yan came out earlier than expected, surprising Qi Si, who was waiting outside.

He got out of his car and quickly approached, “Why are you out so early?”

Of course, he had hoped she would leave early.

“I didn’t want you to wait too long.”

Qi Si pointed at another car, “Take that car.”

He was speaking to Xiao Zhao.

Xiao Zhao hurriedly said, “President Qi, Yanyan, I’m off.”

“Your complexion doesn’t look good, did you drink too much?” Qi Si asked nonchalantly, “Did they force you to drink?”

Shen Yan shook her head, “I was just happy and had a few too many.”

“Get in the car, there’s some hangover soup inside, made by the housekeeper,” Qi Si didn’t have any hangover medicine on hand, as he was afraid it might taste bitter to Shen Yan’s taste.

Shen Yan got into the car and drank the soup Qi Si handed her, feeling much better in her stomach.

But after the second sip, Shen Yan felt nauseous and vomited out half of what she drank.

Qi Si jumped in surprise, “Yanyan.”

He quickly helped her close, leaning her against himself and pulled out a tissue to wipe her clean, “Don’t drink so fast.”

“It’s not… I feel a bit dizzy.”

“How much did you drink?” Qi Si placed his large hand on her forehead, slowly moving her onto his lap, “Don’t drink next time, you don’t need to deal with these social drinks.”

“I could usually drink quite well, don’t know why, but I had a strong reaction today,” Shen Yan tried to explain it wasn’t the alcohol’s fault.

“I’ll have the family doctor come over,” Qi Si covered Shen Yan’s belly with a light blanket, gently stroking her hair, “I won’t be at ease until after the check-up.”

Shen Yan swallowed the words of refusal.

They returned to his temporary residence, and he spent tens of thousands of dollars to have a private doctor come to give Shen Yan a minor check-up.

The doctor was a professional and wouldn’t pry into the affairs of a celebrity’s home.

Qi Si was still a little uneasy seeing that the doctor was a young woman.

But the doctor’s skillful pulse-taking, which seemed as if she’d taken thousands, put him at ease.

Shen Yan was somewhat stunned by the sight of such a beautiful and young doctor.

The doctor looked up and revealed a face that was hard to forget.

The younger girl nodded slightly to Shen Yan, took her pulse for a while, and then said to her, “You have been pregnant for over three months.”

“Ah?”

Shen Yan was taken aback.

Qi Si also froze for a moment, then looked at Shen Yan with joy, “Yanyan!”

“Oh… pregnant, huh? Should I watch out for anything?” Shen Yan asked the young girl somewhat mechanically.

The beautiful young girl stood up, looking ethereal and with a clear voice, “Just do as you normally would. Your physical condition is quite good; there’s no need for special precautions. As long as it’s not about taking medications, everything else is manageable.”

Her features were delicate and refined like jade, and her aura was untainted. The young woman turned to Qi Si, “Please, sir, settle the consultation fee.”

Qi Si happily paid the doctor’s fee of tens of thousands of dollars.

As the young girl was leaving, she turned to glance back at Shen Yan and suddenly said, “There is something special inside this lady’s body. If the child she’s carrying is a girl, you should pay attention to changes in her body in the future.”

Shen Yan’s heart lurched, her gaze sharply fixed on the speaking young girl, “How do you know…”

“It’s simply something I discerned from taking your pulse. There’s no need to panic; it’s probably not a bad thing,” the girl nodded slightly with a hint of mystique and left.
