That night, Zhuang Nainai saw Si Zhengting’s hidden romantic side.
Zhuang Nainai did not go to work the next day as she had to go to the hospital for a prenatal check-up.
Si Zhengting had a super important meeting that he had planned to cancel so that he could accompany her to the hospital. However, Zhuang Nainai did not like the idea. She had self-righteously replied, “You have to make money! Now that you have a child, you can’t be as willful as you were in the past. You have to earn money for our child to spend!”
Si Zhengting was speechless. Even if he didn’t earn anything, their child would have more than enough money to spend.
But because Zhuang Nainai had said that persistently and with good intentions, Si Zhengting decided to do as she asked.
Si Jingyu couldn’t stand how long the couple had dragged this discussion and spoke up. “Alright, alright, I’ll accompany Nainai to the prenatal check-up. You go to work!”
After she said this, Si Jingyu smiled and said, “Hey, there are three women in the house who are dependent on you. Don’t be such a nag as a manly man.”
Si Zhengting was shocked.
When had their household become so poor that they wouldn’t have anything to eat if he didn’t go to work?
Zhuang Nainai met Si Jingyu’s gaze and they burst into laughter at the same time.
When Si Zhengting finally left, albeit unwillingly, Zhuang Nainai heaved a sigh of relief. Si Jingyu laughed. “Si Zhengting was never such a wishy-washy fellow.”
After she said that, she winked at Zhuang Nainai. What she meant was self-evident.
Zhuang Nainai smiled at Si Jingyu, not saying a thing. However, the blissful expression on her face said it all.
Actually, her prenatal check-up could be done by the family doctor. He could visit them to do the check-up, but Si Jingyu had said that the hospital was more well-equipped with the necessary machinery. After Si Zhengting had heard this, the corner of his lips curled but he had remained silent. After some thought, Zhuang Nainai had also agreed to have her check-ups done in the hospital.
On the way to the hospital, Si Jingyu said, “What’s up with both of you? Why didn’t you both check the sex of the child? It’s really difficult for me to buy anything for the child when I don’t know if it’s a girl or a boy.”
After Zhuang Nainai heard this, she placed a hand on her tummy. “I would prefer this child to be a boy, but Si Zhengting prefers a girl. That’s why we decided not to find out the gender of the child. It’ll be a nice surprise to find out if its a girl or a boy after its birth!”
Si Jingyu shook her head, exasperated, and looked out the window. She picked up her phone and secretly sent a message: [Madam Ding, we’ve left for the hospital.]
—
Si Jingyu and Zhuang Nainai soon arrived at the private hospital. The car couldn’t enter the grounds. Thus, they alighted at the entrance. They had to walk past a garden before they could get to the gynecology building.
This private hospital had rather good amenities. The patients and visitors were all from wealthy backgrounds, and thus, the surroundings were very elegant.
The two talked and laughed as they walked into the grounds. As they walked, Zhuang Nainai turned and saw a couple hugging.
The woman was wearing a white down coat and the man was wearing a dark gray wool coat. Zhuang Nainai thought to herself how these two were brazen enough to publicly display their love and affection toward each other in a hospital. But after she saw that woman’s face, she came to an abrupt halt!
Wasn’t that… Bai Yue?
So that man was…
As she thought about this, Si Jingyu followed her gaze. Although she could only see his figure from the back, her entire body tensed up!
And on their end, as though he had felt the weight of someone’s gaze lingering on his body, Shi Jinyan turned around and saw the surprise and shock on Si Jingyu’s face…
