When the old director said that, Chi Shuyan stretched out her hand. She wasn’t nervous, but Qi Zhenbai on the side was. His cold face tensed up as he stared intently at his wife.
It was rare for the old director to see Zhenbai so nervous; it seemed the boy really liked his wife. The old director used to worry over how cold, quiet, mature, and steady this boy was. Now that the boy had found a wife he liked so much, the old director was happy for Zhenbai.
“Zhenbai, you sit down too; don’t be nervous! Let nature take its course when it comes to pregnancy!”
Only then did Qi Zhenbai calm down a bit and nod. He would naturally let nature take its course when it came to his wife getting pregnant, but he also harbored expectations in his heart. At the thought that his wife could give him a fair and fat child, he would like it, regardless of whether it was a boy or girl.
Though, he still liked girls more. At the thought that his wife could give birth to a daughter who was as soft as her, Qi Zhenbai’s heart melted into a mess. He was so excited that his hands trembled uncontrollably.
The old director took Zhenbai’s wife’s pulse, and when his eyes swept over Zhenbai’s rare immature appearance, he smiled slightly before he focused on listening to Chi Shuyan’s pulse.
Chi Shuyan hadn’t been that nervous earlier, but now that the old director was taking her pulse, she couldn’t help but feel a little nervous. She subconsciously wanted to hold the man’s hand, but found that his palm was sweaty and he was even more nervous than she was.
Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but wonder if this man really wanted to have a child so soon.
While she was distracted, the old Chinese doctor had already checked her pulse, and there was still a benevolent smile on his face. After the director was done, Qi Zhenbai abruptly got up, his forehead covered in sweat. He pursed his thin lips and said, “Uncle Ming, my wife…?”
“Don’t worry, your wife is in good health. She’ll get pregnant sooner or later. It’s just a matter of time!” The old director chuckled.
What he meant was that she wasn’t pregnant. Hearing this, Chi Shuyan heaved a sigh of relief. Afraid that the man in front of her would be too disappointed, she hurriedly looked at this expression.
Qi Zhenbai was stunned for a moment before he quickly reacted to the director’s meaning. However, he didn’t show any other expression on his face. Although he was a bit disappointed, he also knew that this matter couldn’t be rushed.
Qi Zhenbai quickly calmed down. He had had a lot of expectations in his heart before, and thanks to his wife’s big appetite, he really had thought she might be pregnant, which made him lose his cool.
But then again, his wife had just started university. If she really got pregnant, that would impact her studies. Although he looked forward to his wife giving birth to their child, between a child and his wife, the latter was naturally more important.
Qi Zhenbai quickly adjusted his mentality and held his wife’s hand as he said to the old director, “Uncle Ming, thank you!”
“You two don’t have to worry about having a baby. You’re still young; you’ll have a child sooner or later!” The old director chuckled.
Before Qi Zhenbai took his wife away, he told the old director not to tell his grandfather about this. Since his wife wasn’t pregnant, he had to resolve the blunder that Qi Hao had caused at home immediately.
But thinking about how his grandfather and mother had been increasingly enthusiastic about his wife’s pregnancy these days, Qi Zhenbai’s head throbbed terribly.
The two left the hospital, and Chi Shuyan heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, she was also worried about the Qi family. On the way out, she kept staring at the man’s face. Seeing that his face didn’t change much after learning that she wasn’t pregnant, she was relieved.
Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but ask, “Do you want children that much?”
Qi Zhenbai secretly wanted his wife to give birth to a soft daughter. Since she wasn’t pregnant, however, he accepted this fact despite his disappointment. Afraid that his wife would think too much, Qi Zhenbai immediately tightened his grip on her hand. “That’s not the case! If it happens, it happens. No, I didn’t do enough. We’ll work harder in the future!”
