Cheng Su's belly was getting bigger, and she experienced the common swelling and cramps of pregnancy. One midnight, she woke up screaming, scaring Qi Taiguo out of bed with a thud.
Because Cheng Su was pregnant, and her belly was bigger, she had to sleep on her side now. Qi Taiguo was worried he'd inadvertently press on her, so he always slept near the edge of the bed. This scare naturally resulted in him falling off.
Qi Taiguo didn't care about the pain in his own bruised behind, immediately got up and pulled the light switch. He saw Cheng Su already sitting on the bed, her hands clutching her right leg, body trembling.
"Is it a cramp?" Qi Taiguo asked, already sitting beside her, vigorously massaging her calf muscles.
"So painful." Cheng Su was trembling all over, tears falling from her eyes.
Qi Taiguo felt heartache, continuously massaging her leg, asking, "Feeling better?"
Cheng Su shook her head.
