“Congratulations! You’re in luck; you didn’t hit the jackpot!”
Seeing how nervous Song Qiuyu and Jiang Xiao were, the young doctor softened his voice slightly and spoke.
“Huh?”
Both Song Qiuyu and Jiang Xiao froze.
“I know you’re in a hurry right now, but don’t worry. Let me worry first.”
The young doctor sighed deeply.
“Let me confirm a few things with you first. First, Miss Song, are you not very good at exercising?”
“I think so?”
Song Qiuyu scratched the back of her neck, feeling a bit embarrassed.
“Yes,” Jiang Xiao nodded.
“Alright, now for the second thing.”
The young doctor took notes. “When you’re being intimate, does Miss Song often faint?”
“Uh…”
Song Qiuyu froze instantly.
“This isn’t harassment. Given your situation, it’s necessary to confirm this with you.”
The young doctor immediately added a disclaimer.
Song Qiuyu naturally understood. However, it was still difficult to talk about.
“Ahem!”
Jiang Xiao rubbed Song Qiuyu’s feverish little head. After coughing a few times, he gave the doctor a faint “mhm,” confirming the matter.
Even though Jiang Xiao was careful to protect her pride and replied very quietly, Song Qiuyu still lowered her head in shame.
She wished she could smash through the center of the earth and stuff herself inside.
The thought that after becoming a girl, she might become a regular at the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department and frequently face these embarrassing questions made her feel like her whole body was on fire.
‘I wonder how girls like Sang Tian and the others get through this.’
‘It’s so embarrassing.’
Then, the young doctor asked a few more questions that made both of them extremely shy.
After getting the answers he wanted, the young doctor smiled, nodded, and said, “The results on the report are fine. It’s because Miss Song’s constitution is too weak, which inherently makes it difficult to conceive. However, it collided with the Easy-to-Conceive Constitution caused by this condition, and they balanced each other out.”
“Doctor Jiang, do you mean that after these two conditions balanced, Xi’er is now about the same as other girls?”
Jiang Xiao’s eyes lit up.
“That’s about what it means,” the young doctor nodded and said. “However, the issue of a weak constitution must be improved through increased exercise. Otherwise, once she does conceive, the probability of miscarriage and difficult labor will be very high.”
“Alright, I’ll remember that.”
Jiang Xiao continued to rub Song Qiuyu’s little head. Then, as he tried to rub it again, she dodged.
He turned to look and saw the person beside him with a face as red as peach blossoms. Her eyes were closed as she adjusted her breathing. Her curled, ink-colored eyelashes trembled slightly before she opened her eyes. A hint of a smile flickered in her beautiful almond eyes. She then rose from the bench and gave the doctor a polite bow.
“Doctor Jiang, thank you so much for today. We have urgent matters to attend to, so we’ll take our leave now.”
Jiang Xiao also stood up, his gentle gaze lingering on her, unable to look away.
“Mhm.”
The young doctor nodded.
“Even though the probability has balanced out, when you’re being intimate again, you can’t skimp on the necessary protective measures. No matter how low the probability is, there’s still a chance of hitting the jackpot.”
As soon as those words were spoken, Song Qiuyu and Jiang Xiao both froze and nodded repeatedly.
Creak.
Song Qiuyu opened the door. After stepping out, she glanced at the bench to the side, and Jiang Xiao followed her gaze.
Xie Zhuran also happened to look up at the two roommates who had just come out. Three gazes met in mid-air.
“Old Xie, you should have—” Song Qiuyu said tentatively.
“Yeah, I heard it,” Xie Zhuran frowned, nodding his head.
“That’s good.”
Song Qiuyu breathed a sigh of relief. That meant she didn’t have to repeat it herself.
Xie Zhuran rose from the chair. “Since there’s nothing wrong, let’s go. It’s almost time for the high-speed train to depart!”
“I’ve already sent a message to Mom saying I’ll be staying at a friend’s house for a few days before returning,” Jiang Li said as she stood up.
They chatted as they walked toward the hospital exit. During this time, Jiang Xiao also truthfully reported the test results to Mother Jiang. Upon hearing this, Mother Jiang fell into a complex mood—she was relieved, yet also a bit disappointed.
Then, as they were going down the stairs, an unexpected figure suddenly burst into their field of vision, startling them all.
This person… wasn’t it Sang Tian?
“Hmm?”
Sang Tian quickly spotted them and smiled, waving her hand.
“Song Classmate, what are you all doing here? Is someone feeling unwell?”
“Sang Tian, why are you here?”
Faced with such a question, Song Qiuyu felt a wave of panic. She tried her best to suppress her nervousness and manage her expression. Instead of answering, she asked Sang Tian the same question with a look of surprise.
Sang Tian just smiled and immediately walked over.
After a bit of small talk, Song Qiuyu got a general idea of Sang Tian’s situation. As it turned out, this hospital was owned by Sang Tian’s uncle’s family. Today, Sang Tian had come with her parents to visit relatives and decided to stop by her uncle’s hospital for a full body check-up.
Furthermore, Sang Tian already knew about Lin An and Xia Qi’s engagement and planned to head over tomorrow afternoon. Song Qiuyu didn’t ask further, but she suspected that a wealthy woman had emerged from among them.
“So, Song Classmate, you came to the hospital for an exam because your stomach was feeling uncomfortable?”
After hearing Song Qiuyu’s explanation, Sang Tian’s face was full of concern. However, most of that concern was actually about the relationship between Song Qiuyu and Jiang Xiao.
Looking at Song Qiuyu and Jiang Xiao standing together, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of pity in her heart.
Clearly, the two of them had such a wonderful relationship.
Song Classmate had stomach issues, and Jiang Xiao had been accompanying her the whole time.
But just because they were the same gender, did they have to face such prejudice?
“Yes, but the doctor said it’s nothing serious and already gave me some medicine,” Song Qiuyu nodded guiltily.
Though she felt a bit bad about it, barring any surprises, they would probably have to wait until the summer vacation to tell Sang Tian the truth.
Until then, they had to keep her in the dark.
“I see. That’s good then,” Sang Tian also nodded.
To the side, the two people who were temporarily and selectively ignored by Sang Tian had complex expressions on their faces.
They felt as if they were seeing their former selves in Sang Tian.
The way Lin An and Xia Qi had looked at them not long ago was probably exactly how they were looking at Sang Tian now. This was exactly what it looked like to be completely in the dark.
Thinking of this, Jiang Li and Xie Zhuran exchanged a look, sharing the same thought.
Once they saw Lin An and Xia Qi again, they definitely had to stir up some trouble!
“Since you still have to catch your high-speed train, I won’t take up any more of your time. Go on ahead; I’ll head over tomorrow afternoon,” Sang Tian said with a smile.
“Alright.”
With that, Song Qiuyu said her goodbyes to Sang Tian and immediately left the hospital with her companions.
The city where Lin An and Xia Qi were located was Lufeng City, which was quite far from Heaven-Watching City.
By the time they reached their destination, the sky had completely darkened.
Moreover, the wind tonight was very loud, blowing so hard that the trees on both sides of the road were bending over.
Faint thunder could be heard from the high clouds as if it were about to rain.
“Thunderstorm warning!”
Xie Zhuran glanced at his phone, his eyes widening.
“It’s so late, and there’s a thunderstorm coming. Why don’t we find a hotel to stay in first? Otherwise, it’ll be trouble once the rain gets heavy.”
“Mhm.”
No one disagreed.
However, just as they found a hotel and were preparing to check in, they collided head-on with Lin An, who was rushing out the door!
