After the joyful excitement of becoming parents Bianca and Dr. Ling slowly became more aware of the situation in which they found themselves."Bianca, we will have to be pretenders, as if nothing happened, if the director of the university finds out that you are pregnant, he will be very angry with me."Bianca agreed."I want this child, I want to keep him no matter what.""You're right, we'll pretend you are not pregnant yet, there's only a few months left until graduation, no one will even notice you're pregnant.""We know that, but what do we do with the paparazzi of journalists who are always on our heels, lest they discover something new about us?""You will go to my friend's private clinic for check-ups, various patients come, not only pregnant women, so you won't be noticeable to journalists.That clinic also has a special delivery department with the best instruments and the latest medical devices, so our baby in your belly will have a team of the best professionals to make sure your pregnancy goes well.We'll go to town later to buy new clothes, it's a good thing that you usually like to wear loose clothes, so your pregnancy will be less noticeable.So let this be our family secret that you got pregnant. Only my mother still knows and she knows how to keep a secret, especially when it comes to her grandson.""What do you mean grandchild, we don't know yet if it's a boy or a girl, the doctor told me that it's still too early to determine the gender of the child?""My mom already thinks that you will give birth to a son, you know how traditionally people have their own methods to discover that, it's the same here in China, and probably in Italy too, we are all one world."Bianca smiled:"Of course I would like it to be a boy, but if it happens to be a girl, will your mother be angry?""Don't worry Bianca, mother didn't say she wanted a boy grandson, but that you are carrying a boy, we have to wait until the moment the baby is born to be 100% sure, and mom wouldn't be angry even if you gave birth to a girl, you know.""I would like to ask you one more thing though, now that you are pregnant you better move all your things to my apartment, I will drive you to campus whenever I can, we have a driver even though our cars can move without a driver like what do you know.Since I took over my older brother's bank I have had no annual holidays or sick days, now I could take days off to help you during your pregnancy, I can also work from home and be with you."Bianca thought, "I might as well invite my mother to be here, she doesn't work full time at my father's hospital, so you can work as you have been."This was the first time the two of them had denied each other, Bianca didn't want Dr. Ling to neglect his banker job for her, and Dr. Ling was so concerned about her health and the babies that she wanted to be by her side all the time during her pregnancy.Of course, Bianca can call her mom, but how to tell her that she got pregnant during her studies and is now married to Doctor Ling, she thinks that she was too late to tell her family that she got married.Then Dr. Ling came up with an idea:"Bianca, could my mother live with us for a while, especially now that you are pregnant, she likes to cook Chinese specialties, but since she is alone there is no one to cook for?"Doctor Ling was afraid that Bianca would not accept, so many young girls had told him so far that they would never live with their mother-in-law in the house, that's why he didn't get married before he met Bianca.It was an ideal solution for Bianca, it is still too early to tell her mother in Italy about her pregnancy."Of course, your mother is welcome, I want to try her recipes, in my youth I had a friend from school whose parents opened a Chinese restaurant in Venice, so she taught me that sweet and sour sauce can be made from tomato sauce from a tube and pineapple from a can, also mayonnaise and tomato sauce is the sour version.""OK. you're wonderful Bianca, my mom knows how to make those sauces with fresh ingredients, not canned food, you'll see she'll teach you to cook for me""And that means, you want mom's kitchen, not my sauces," Bianca jokes.Of course, this is much better than Bianca's mother coming to China who does not understand the Chinese language, it would be difficult for her to communicate at the hospital counters even though she herself works in that profession.Life is unpredictable, Bianca thought, if she had planned her pregnancy in Italy, her mother would have helped her and she could have given birth in her father's hospital, but the circumstances are such that she has to hide her pregnancy from them until she finishes her studies. Bianca knows that of course her parents wouldn't be angry with Bianca, but they would be very worried about her health and that's why she didn't want to risk it."I will hold this pregnancy here in Shanghai, and the next time I will certainly be next to my mother in Venice."In the first months of pregnancy, Bianka did not look like a pregnant woman, she read many magazines about pregnancy, and even stories that some pregnant women did not feel that they were pregnant until the day of delivery.Bianca, on the other hand, did not take her pregnancy very easily, she often vomited and felt dizzy when she got up, her mother-in-law would beg her to stay in bed that day and not go to university, but Bianca, as a scholarship student, felt responsible to successfully complete these studies. Its counter-type air-purifying fan has proven to be successful, and already some companies have offered to manufacture and market the fan for sale. Doctor Ling decided that it would be a product of his own company, so Bianca and the baby would have stable finances and profit from the sale of her ventilator if something happened to doctor Ling, namely he did not forget that his brother died suddenly in his sleep, and he was afraid that such something can happen to him too.Doctor Ling loved Bianca even more since she was pregnant, he would often rest his head on her belly to hear the baby's heartbeat, even his friend's clinic confirmed that Bianca was carrying a boy. She visited shopping centers with her mother-in-law to look at clothes for the baby boy, but they didn't buy them, they would order online from those same stores so that the paparazzo journalists wouldn't notice that she was buying clothes and strollers for newborns.A beautiful room just for the baby was arranged in their apartment, the mother-in-law left it to Bianca to choose curtain patterns, bedding for the baby and told her to put a small couch in the room so that the grandmother could take a nap with the baby, of course Bianca accepted.On the graduation day, Bianca was declared student of the year, it was a big surprise for her, Doctor Ling told her that he did not influence the director to make that decision, but that Bianca earned it by working and studying. Bianca's father arrived just as Bianca was being presented with her diploma by the university principal.Dr. Ling was also present at the graduation. His tender soul could not bear to weep."Little Bianca, I love you.""I'm sorry for putting you in this situation where you have to pretend in front of everyone that you're not pregnant."After Bianca's celebration, her father and Dr. Ling arrived at the apartment where Bianca now lived as a married woman, they explained everything to her father who understood them, saying that they did the right thing in that situation, and he would do the same. Mother-in-law prepared traditional tea for them in porcelain cups saying:Once upon a time, my family was descended from the Han imperial line, so the family porcelain was preserved for generations.Bianca's father was touched by this hospitality and invited Bianca's mother-in-law to come visit the city of Venice."I'm glad, doctor, but I'm already old, it's hard for me to travel by plane at this age, my friends traveled by cruise ship to Italy and said that Venice is the most beautiful city in the world, that's why I'm glad that our families connected.""Yes, but you know for me Shanghai is just as beautiful an urban city as there is none more beautiful!"That's how the two families became closer, Bianca still had a few months to give birth and decided to have it in Shanghai, her mother also arrived to help her after the birth, as is the custom in Italy.
