Chapter 374: Chapter 374: Do You Like Children?
“What’s wrong?”
Qingwu remembered that after the research summit a few days ago, Shen Zhongshuang had basically not been at home.
When he came home, he was all over Zuo Wanjun, asking her to call Su Mi.
According to Shen Zhongshuang, what Su Mi really loved wasn’t him, but Zuo Wanjun…
Faced with Zuo Wanjun’s gentle care, it was indeed hard for Su Mi to refuse!
That warmth was something only a mother could give.
If Shen Zhongshuang didn’t bring along something prepared by Zuo Wanjun, Su Mi wouldn’t even let him in!
Su Mi puffed angrily, “Shen Zhongshuang is just a wolf in sheep’s clothing! He can’t keep his word!”
“What did Second Brother do?”
When it came to what exactly Shen Zhongshuang did, Su Mi couldn’t bring herself to say it.
She couldn’t possibly tell Qingwu that even though Shen Zhongshuang said they would stop, he insisted on dragging her along, leaving her sore for days… right?
Even though they were close friends, Su Mi didn’t have the face to share these things directly.
After thinking for a moment, Su Mi took one of Qingwu’s professional books to cover her face, hiding her blush.
“I went to get an echocardiogram last time.”
Ever since the fire, Su Mi had some minor health issues.
While getting the echocardiogram, she ran into Shen Zhongshuang, and the little nurse handed her over to him without saying a word!
Lying on the bed for the echocardiogram, Shen Zhongshuang looked at Su Mi over his mask, his deep eyes holding a trace of a subtle smile.
Smiling, smiling, just know how to smile!
Those beautiful eyes of his, are they just for smiling?
Shen Zhongshuang said matter-of-factly, “What symptoms are you having?”
“The other doctor checked me earlier, Doctor Shen. Just look at the medical records.”
“Am I the doctor, or are you the doctor? Or does Mimi think it’s okay not to listen to the doctor?”
Su Mi was at a loss for words.
After a moment of hesitation, realizing she was at fault, she had no choice but to comply with Shen Zhongshuang’s request.
“…Shortness of breath, chest tightness, palpitations after exercise, feeling of pressure on the heart.”
“What kind of exercise?”
“Boxing.”
Going to the underground boxing arena regularly had become part of Su Mi’s daily routine.
No one in the underworld has a weak body!
Her goal was to someday become Qingwu’s opponent again, win the championship and fight Qingwu once!
Also not to disappoint Qingwu’s guidance.
Shen Zhongshuang applied coupling gel on the scanner probe, his face expressionless, “Unclasp your bra and lie down.”
Su Mi rolled her eyes, letting the cold probe slide back and forth across her heart.
As the probe moved, Shen Zhongshuang’s voice echoed beside her ear.
“I see, you haven’t just been boxing, seems like there’s something else too.”
What other exercise was there, it’s self-explanatory!
Thinking about those situations, Su Mi wanted to slap Shen Zhongshuang!
Su Mi didn’t say a word, glaring coldly at Shen Zhongshuang who leaned closer, but the sound of her heartbeat betrayed her feelings.
The atmosphere became somewhat ambiguous, yet Su Mi didn’t forget she was still angry with Shen Zhongshuang!
After the check-up, Shen Zhongshuang handed Su Mi some paper, “Wipe yourself dry, I can help if you need.”
Su Mi snatched it away coldly, “No need to trouble yourself, Doctor Shen.”
“The report will take a while, want to rest in my office?”
“No way!”
Su Mi got up and dressed without another word, left the exam room, and headed straight to Beijing University to find Qingwu.
“Do you think he’s a jerk? He made me dress myself and clean up!”
“He knows I don’t like pumpkin, but he insists on giving me pumpkin rice, and says I shouldn’t be picky. Who wants to eat pumpkin?”
Qingwu responded, “The pumpkin rice was made by my mom, she planted the pumpkin herself too.”
Su Mi turned her head and immediately changed her tone.
“It’s delicious, I’ve never had such tasty pumpkin! Shen Zhongshuang didn’t even tell me your mom made it, he’s insane!”
Qingwu understood.
Between Su Mi and Shen Zhongshuang… it didn’t seem like a real fight, probably just some kind of flirtation among young couples.
Qingwu raised an eyebrow slightly, “If my second brother is such a jerk, would he do these things for other girls?”
Su Mi was stunned!
She stammered for a second.
If you think about it, Shen Zhongshuang really treated her well, a stable emotional partner, even putting up with her somewhat neurotic temper.
When Su Mi was in a bad mood, Shen Zhongshuang would take her skydiving.
And with the Black Dragon Gang matters, Shen Zhongshuang arranged everything behind the scenes.
Several times she drove him out, he slept in the car, waiting to have breakfast with her the next day…
Su Mi said indignantly, “That would cause trouble for others! Better not to let him loose on the market. I… I’m not saying I dislike this.”
“But… am I being a bit too much?”
Qingwu chuckled softly.
“Second brother knew you were a drama queen from day one. Maybe he likes it when you throw tantrums.”
She could tell Shen Zhongshuang was actually having fun with it.
Thinking this way, Su Mi again felt she might have been over the top.
Qingwu looked up, “Want to know if you’re too much? Just ask my second brother.”
After all, it wasn’t Qingwu who was dating Su Mi!
As long as Shen Zhongshuang himself was enjoying it, it should be fine.
“Actually, there’s one more thing.”
Qingwu pinched Su Mi’s pulse and glanced at her dark circles.
“Don’t go boxing for now, focus on recuperating.”
“Huh? Is there something wrong with my body?”
Certain pulse signs were faint indications. Qingwu wasn’t sure either but didn’t say anything to avoid worrying Su Mi!
“Not enough rest. Avoid the boxing arena for now; I’ll let them know. Get some good rest.”
“Babe, do I have some kind of terminal illness? Like one where you don’t even need medication? Don’t scare me!”
“What are you thinking? No such thing! The Su Family has no genetic illnesses; you’re very healthy.”
After a moment, Qingwu said casually, “Mimi, do you like children?”
“I do. Although I’m a bit afraid of marriage, I still want to have kids — enough to make a whole grape bunch to play with!”
Qingwu seemed helpless.
“If you really have so many, my second brother would be heartbroken.”
“That’s different. Even if you get divorced, children are always yours. Look at my mom; if it weren’t for me avenging her, she’d be so miserable.”
Su Mi leaned back with a wistful glow in her eyes.
“Your mom wants you to be safe and happy, not seeking revenge for her.”
“I know, but if a child loved me so much, always thinking of me, my life would be complete!”
Su Mi leaned on her hand, grinning, “Babe, you don’t get it. Someone like me needs to heal through a child.”
Despite wanting a child, now having Shen Zhongshuang by her side, she felt… quite complete!
Seeing the shimmer of tears at the corners of Su Mi’s eyes, Qingwu didn’t voice her conclusion.
To avoid scaring Su Mi, it’s better to wait for things to stabilize and then get a comprehensive check-up.
Besides, second brother is a doctor; he’d be the first to notice!
