Chapter 1399 - 1401

Even though she was more mentally prepared, Gong Ruini was still a bit uneasy before the doctor gave her an answer.

"Don’t worry." Zhao Xuran reached out to hold Gong Ruini’s hand.

"I know."

"Hey, why don’t you learn a bit?" At least someone knowledgeable would make it unnecessary to come to the hospital.

Gong Ruini really didn’t love the hospital at all, always feeling that the smell of alcohol in the air gave her the urge to run away.

Why didn’t she learn it earlier? In the past, Zhao Xuran would have given you a disdainful look, there are so many things to learn in this world, why insist on learning traditional Chinese medicine?

But now, even if Gong Ruini didn’t bring it up, Zhao Xuran still regretted it in many ways. If he had learned it earlier, would it be necessary to find out so late?

He could also keep an eye on things at home all the time. Although foreign instruments are good, they can make everything about the human body crystal clear, but does that not affect the child?

"It’s my fault." Zhao Xuran straightforwardly admitted that he really hadn’t handled it well.

Wow, no way, Zhao Xuran actually admitted he was wrong, Gong Ruini was stunned.

His wife’s confused look made Zhao Xuran quite hurt, is he someone who doesn’t admit his mistakes? "Hey, what’s with your look?"

"I’ve thought it over, I need to learn some basics."

"Next time, when Ni Zi has another child, I’ll definitely perform well." At the very least, he won’t organize any travel activities at that time.

At the very least, Ni Zi should get enough rest.

This one hasn’t been settled yet, how can he already think about the next one? I really don’t know where he gets his confidence.

Just like this pregnancy, it happened just as he predicted, and Gong Ruini originally thought they could adjust a bit, try to get into school, adapt to school life, and then get pregnant.

But someone was just so impatient, he secretly did something and now this is the result.

Oh, Gong Ruini suddenly remembered what she had forgotten before, and gave Zhao Xuran a fierce glare.

What did he do again? Why is his wife glaring at him so fiercely? What did he do to make Ni Zi stare at him like that?

"What you did, we’ll settle it when we get home." Gong Ruini wanted to say in a fierce tone.

But thinking that maybe the doctor would call them in soon, it wasn’t good for others to hear.

Even if people here can’t understand Chinese, they can sense the fierce tone.

Going home to settle it, what did he do wrong this time? Could not learning traditional Chinese medicine really have this terrifying consequence?

See, without her saying it out, this guy thought she was angry about today’s incident, "Condoms."

She simply said those two words and waited to see Zhao Xuran’s face turn pale.

Sigh, Gong Ruini really figured it out, Zhao Xuran was a bit regretful, but also relieved.

Yesterday he didn’t mention it, worrying that his wife’s temper while pregnant would make her kick him out.

"I can explain, I wanted to say something, but I was worried you’d be angry and kick me out. I wouldn’t feel at ease with you sleeping alone."

"I want to watch over you, I want to take care of you."

Hehehe, Gong Ruini really wanted to burst out laughing at him, it’s obvious he was hoping to slide by.

"Wife, I really think that way." Seeing his wife’s disbelief, Zhao Xuran’s voice lowered, showing all signs of grievance.

Ah ah, this guy is even putting on expressions, it’s clear he’s been mingling in the business circle a lot, even his acting skills have improved.

Gong Ruini didn’t want to argue with Zhao Xuran about this issue and turned her head away from the boy.

Talking back to him was recognizing him way too much, giving him a chance to bounce back at every turn, the best way was to completely ignore him, letting him feel the error on his own.

His wife was using the silent treatment again, which really made Zhao Xuran uncomfortable. If he could choose, Zhao Xuran hoped they could have a good argument instead.

What to do, should he shamelessly apologize? Zhao Xuran considered it for a moment. In the past, Zhao Guangran often used this trick to make Gong Ruini relent and not punish him.

But after thinking for a long time, Zhao Xuran confessed he really couldn’t do that, only the thick-skinned Zhao Guangran could manage it.

Just as Zhao Xuran was tangled up, the nurse informed them to go in.

"Congratulations." The doctor glanced at the report and congratulated Gong Ruini and Zhao Xuran.

"The baby is already three weeks old."

"The child is in excellent condition."

The doctor briefly mentioned the weeks of pregnancy and estimated when they were together and made note of the things to watch for, as well as the date for the next check-up.

Zhao Xuran, though prepared, was truly dazed after receiving the doctor’s precise answer.

Gong Ruini didn’t want to pay him any mind, but the poor guy really couldn’t get into the right state, just sitting there blankly.

If they didn’t leave now, wouldn’t they delay the next patient?

And considering that someone usually so savvy could turn so dumb, even if she didn’t want to acknowledge him, she couldn’t just ignore him in the doctor’s office, could she?

"Brother Xuran, let’s go." Gong Ruini softly called out after a while.

What she got in return was Zhao Xuran’s silly smile. Sigh, you were supposed to have already suspected this yesterday; today was just formalizing the process.

The priority was to understand how maternity was handled abroad, particularly regarding the examinations and so on.

Bringing Zhao Xuran was in hopes he could remember all this, but unexpectedly, the future father was not proper in any ordinary sense when it mattered most.

When Zhao Xuran snapped out of his own world, he realized he had already left the doctor’s office.

"I, I still have questions for the doctor." About to become a father, Zhao Xuran truly hadn’t confirmed.

Although when his younger brothers were small, as the older brother, he certainly took good care of them, but are brothers and sons really the same?

Ask the doctor, "I’ll tell you." Gong Ruini quickly repeated the doctor’s instructions.

Ah, is that all? Zhao Xuran was dumbfounded, "Nothing else?" The instructions were surprisingly simple.

"Yeah." Gong Ruini asserted she had definitely repeated it verbatim.

"No, I have to ask her." Zhao Xuran was determined not to mess up this time and would make sure to repeat the doctor’s instructions thoroughly.

"Ask what?" Gong Ruini pulled Zhao Xuran who was about to head back to the doctor’s office.

"Why ask them? It’s not like we don’t have others to ask." Gong Ruini really just wanted to confirm the next check-up date.

As for how to take care of a pregnant woman like herself, Gong Ruini had some experience. After all, she had seen how Zhan Jing, Cai Meina, and Wan Qiweng handled their pregnancies.

"More importantly, they are foreigners, they don’t do confinement." Asking foreigners, even professional doctors, differs greatly from domestic traditions.

If that’s the case, there’s no need to ask foreigners about these things; just do it the ancestral way.

"Um..." Isn’t there nowadays advocacy for scientific child-rearing, like things to do or not do?

Zhao Xuran thought this approach was really good,
