Love So Sweet

616 Check-Up

A couple of weeks later, Zhang Yi Hai was scheduled to head over to Capital City for his graduation.

Initially, Zhang Yu Han and Li Qin Yao were supposed to leave for Capital City with Zhang Yi Hai and Fang Su Jin. However, Zhang Li Xue was due for another check-up around the same time.

It was decided for the elder couple to wait for Zhang Li Xue’s check-up before they would head to Capital City.

When Zhang Yi Hai heard about this arrangement, he could not help but to hide the smile on his face. He thought that he should use this chance to have a date with Fang Su Jin before his parents would arrive.

Without their parents around, the couple planned to visit a few places and play around the city.

Zhang Li Xue arrived at the hospital early morning alone and headed to the OB/GYN department. After registering her name, the nurse took her weight and drew some samples from her body. Then, it was time for Zhang Li Xue to wait in the waiting area.

As she sat on the chair, Zhang Li Xue swept her gaze around the area and saw that there were a lot of pregnant mothers around her.

Seeing them walking around with their bulging stomach made her smile. Subconsciously, Zhang Li Xue placed her palm on her stomach, as if she could feel the baby.

Zhang Li Xue could not help but laugh as she tried to imagine herself with a big belly.

.....

Just then, the phone in her hand vibrated. Zhang Li Xue peeked at the screen and saw that it was Bai Qi’s name. Her eyes lit up and Zhang Li Xue quickly answered his phone call.

“Are you still in the waiting room?” Bai Qi asked.

Zhang Li Xue listened to his voice and knew that her husband was running around, judging from his breathing.

“Un. I just gave the nurse some samples,” Zhang Li Xue said. “It should take a while before it is my turn to see the doctor.”

“Then, wait for me,” Bai Qi said. The corner of his lips tilted up. “I will be there as soon as I can.”

Last night, Bai Qi had to stay at the hospital for his night shift. In the morning, he was busy following their Uncle Qi Zheng to go around the ward.

Now that he finally get off for a while, Bai Qi planned to accompany his wife for her check-up. Even if he could not always be by her side, Bai Qi decided that he will have to show up at his wife’s maternity check-up.

He did not want his little fairy to experience going to the doctor alone.

As a husband and expecting father, Bai Qi wanted to watch as his child grew in his wife’s stomach. He wanted to hear what the doctor will say about his wife’s body. At least, if he had any questions, he could ask the doctor directly.

“Un. I know,” Zhang Li Xue said. “Doctor Bai, you don’t need to rush. There is still time before the doctor will call my name.”

Bai Qi chuckled before finally ending the phone call. He stood in front of the elevator and waited for it to arrive. After waiting for a while, the elevator finally stopped with a ding.

The door slid open.

His lips pursed into a thin line, seeing that the elevator was full of people. Even if he wanted to slide in, there would be no space for him.

The door slid close again. Bai Qi glanced at the number on the screen before deciding to use the stairs.

His steps grew faster as he was worrying that his wife would be waiting alone.

After running around for a while, he finally reached the OB/GYN department. He stood at the corner and swept his gaze around the room. Finally, a faint smile appeared on his face when he saw his wife.

At this time, Zhang Li Xue was staring at the entrance as she was expecting him to appear. As he came over through a different entrance, Zhang Li Xue was unable to see him.

Bai Qi inhaled a few deep breaths to steady his breath before he finally walked over to his wife’s side. He still remembered her words, telling him not to rush over.

Then, he walked over to her side without her noticing. He sat on the empty chair beside her and watched as his wife turned around with a frown.

However, the moment she recognized him, the frown disappeared and Zhang Li Xue was smiling brightly. “When did you get here?”

Zhang Li Xue thought that it was a random person who sat beside her. She wanted to tell the person that the seat was taken. Unexpectedly, the person who sat down was Bai Qi.

“Just a while ago. The elevator was full. I have to come over using a different path,” Bai Qi spoke. He held his wife’s hand and brought it to his lips and kissed the inside of her wrist. “How are you feeling?”

“It’s alright.” Zhang Li Xue peeked at her surroundings. Bai Qi’s action made her cheek grow a little red. “Are you not busy?”

Bai Qi chuckled. “I’m allowed to come over to accompany you. After this, I will have to return to my task. If I’m not busy, should we go and have lunch together?”

Zhang Li Xue nodded.

Just then, a nurse walked over in their direction. She gave Bai Qi a look over before flashing him a smile. “Doctor Bai?”

Bai Qi turned around and nodded. “It’s me.”

“Doctor Lin is waiting for you and your wife,” the nurse reported. “You can come with me for your consultation.”

The couple exchanged a look before they finally followed the nurse.

Once they entered the room, Doctor Lin flashed them a smile.

Seeing that it was Doctor Lin who will attend to them, Bai Qi could immediately guess that it was their Uncle Qi Zheng who helped them to meet Doctor Lin.

“Doctor Bai, Mrs. Bai, have a seat.” Doctor Lin motioned to the seat in front of him.

Doctor Lin began by asking a few questions about Zhang Li Xue’s body condition. Then, the nurse came to the room with a report in her hand.

After Doctor Lin scanned through the document, he asked the nurse to usher Zhang Li Xue to the bed to start the ultrasound.

The nurse helped to smear something on Zhang Li Xue’s stomach before she pressed the device to look at the baby.

Not too long after, a greyish image appeared on the monitor.

Doctor Lin explained that their baby was healthy and currently developing really well.

Zhang Li Xue stared at the screen for a while. Then, her gaze shifted to Bai Qi who was standing beside her. Seeing the astounded look on Bai Qi’s face made her heart grow warmer. It was rare to see Bai Qi looking like this.
