Dr Lang continued after James left, "Apologies, I did not think that you would want to talk about the last series of tests . Your brother realised what we were hinting at Madam Hou . We were checking your reproductive system . The number and location of the blows to your abdomen are such we are worried about long term damage . Presently the tests show no issues, but you will have to be monitored for years, particularly if you have difficultly in conceiving in the future . "

"I have some discussions with you CEO Hou, now I need to discuss this with both of you . Until the cast comes off Madam Hou's leg, the recommendation is that you will have to abstain from s*xual intercourse . We cannot enforce that, but it is a strong recommendation, simply to allow your body to heal Madam Hou . "

At that exact moment, the discussion was interrupted by a alert on the computer, which Dr Lang opened and read . "We were awaiting blood test results . Some will not come back for a day or two, but the one that has come back, means that we will need be somewhat careful . "

"What are you meaning?"

"Before you leave, we need to take a couple of more blood samples, and undertake another ultrasound, as we have to check something . "

"Doctor, what is going on with my wife?"

"CEO Hou, Madam Hou, one blood test result that has come back indicates you may be pregnant Madam Hou . It would be in the early stages . We need to take another sample and perform an ultrasound to see if we can any early signs of a fetus . It all may be inconclusive if it is early . Until we have confirmation either way, not only will we continue to perform blood tests, but will proceed carefully until we have the confirmation . "

"That takes me back to my previous point, it now is doubly important that you do not have s*xual intercourse, as there will be even more risks to the pregnancy . Also, at about 10 weeks, if it is true, we will need to start doing tests, some of which are normal in a pregnancy to screen for genetic conditions, but also to further screen that the a.s.sault did not impact the fetus's development . "

Hou Yi and Anna looked at each other, in shock . The possibility of a child, who could only have been conceived on the night before or the day of the a.s.sault, and survived .

Dr Lang realised the look on both their faces . "Do not get ahead of yourselves, we may be a couple of weeks until we have a confirmation either way . " He then stood up, and opened the door, inviting James back in, and quietly arranged for him to return with Anna for a couple of more tests .

Dr Lang turned back to CEO Hou "Your wife will have further blood tests, a urine test and a Ultrasound focusing on here uterus area to see if we can get an answer . We may not have results until tomorrow, and they may not be conclusive, but as soon as they are in I will let you both know . They will take at least 20 minutes and I will arrange for radiology to direct them to your car . "

With that Dr Lang, left the room, and Hou Yi's mobile rang . He answered the phone, noticing that the call was from Yao Tan "What do you want Tan?"

"Yi, settle down, what are you and your wife doing tonight?"

"Why?"

"Well I need to organise a dinner with you, I have something to tell you . I know your wife knows, but tell her to keep the secret, and I will tell you . "

"We were having dinner with the family, and then staying at the Ancestral house . We Should be able to change that . Where is dinner then?"

"My apartment, say 7pm . "

"Tan, I need to confirm and when I do I will let you know . It should not be an issue . "

"Yi, what is going on?"

"We are at the hospital for tests, following up …"

"OK I get it, you need to be available . See you then . "

With that Yao Tan ended the call, and Hou Yi wondered what was going on .

Hou Yi headed down towards the foyer, and he received a message that Anna was finis.h.i.+ng off the tests . The bodyguard arranged for the car to be brought up and as it pulled up Anna and James into the foyer . They headed back to the Ancestral Home and on their return Anna headed to lay down . After speaking to his mother Hou Yi conformed tea with Yao Tan, and worked from the Study until waking Anna at 5pm, for their dinner appointment .
