Li Xiaoran stood by Qiao An’s bed and looked down at her smirking face. “What are you thinking about?”
His heavenly voice startled Qiao An back to the present.
“Dr. Li, is my current body suitable for pregnancy?” Qiao An asked.
Li Xiaoran’s handsome face twitched as he looked at Qiao An suspiciously. “If you have a strong need in that aspect, I can give you medicine to suppress it… It’s not appropriate to get pregnant now.”
Blushing with embarrassment, Qiao An’s heart pounded. “No, it’s just that my mother-in-law just came by and she’s rushing me to have a baby with Zecheng. That’s why I’m asking you.”
Li Xiaoran’s handsome face darkened.
Qiao An saw that something was wrong with his face. “I can’t have children, can I?” she asked worriedly.
Li Xiaoran said, “Don’t worry. After you recover, you can have as many babies as you want.”
Qiao An sighed with relief.
Li Xiaoran had become very quiet today. He was absent-minded when he examined Qiao An’s wound. Qiao An was scheming against him shamelessly, so he was naturally even more absent-minded.
“Doctor Li, do you do routine physical examinations?” Qiao An had heard that Li Xiaoran’s private life was chaotic, and she was quite worried that he had an illness. Therefore, it was better to find out in advance.
Li Xiaoran was not someone who was easily fooled. He looked up into Qiao An’s scheming eyes and asked, “In what way?”
Qiao An quickly hid her thoughts. “You’re a doctor. You’re more professional than I am. You have to tell me how often I have to do a routine physical? And what sort of examinations I have to do.” 1
“After you’re discharged, you’ll have a full physical every month for three months. After that, you’ll have a full physical for half a year. In the future, it depends on your recovery. It’s best to do it once a year.”
‘So what tests do I need to do?’
“Routine physical.”
“Does that include HIV?”
Li Xiaoran was so shocked that the cotton swab in his hand fell to the ground. If he had not supervised her body and understood her physical condition, he would have suspected that she had been inhumanely abused by the kidnappers.
“No need,” Li Xiaoran said.
“Then don’t you men have to do this examination every year?” Qiao An rambled, crazily probing Li Xiaoran’s physical condition at the edge.
Li Xiaoran said, “Only men with indecent ways need to do such examinations.”
Qiao An looked at him with bright eyes and asked, “Does Dr. Li do it every year?”
Li Xiaoran laughed in anger.
“A player like me has to do it every month.”
Qiao An stared at him in amazement, her eyes full of disgust.
“Doctor Li, please clean yourself up.” In the end, she said something meaningless.
Li Xiaoran had the urge to kill her.
Li Zecheng, who had just reached the door, suddenly heard Qiao An and Li Xiaoran’s quips. He was stunned by Qiao An’s “Does that include HIV?”
There was only one reason why Qiao An was so concerned about the check-up on HIV. She was worried that she’d suffer from something like that. Had the kidnappers already taken advantage of her…
Li Zecheng did not dare to think further.
He walked out with a dark expression. When Qiao An saw Li Zecheng, her gaze naturally landed on his tie clip. The tie clip that meant “I’ll accompany you through thick and thin” was a gift from Wei Xin. From the surveillance over the past few days, it seemed that Li Zecheng wore it very frequently.
Li Xiaoran saw Li Zecheng and did not stop what he was doing. He was disinfecting Qiao An’s leg and applying medicine.
But Li Xiaoran’s gaze inadvertently landed on Qiao An’s face.
Qiao An grew unusually quiet. The air was inexplicably tense.
“An’an, you seem to have gained weight.” Li Zecheng was very gratified to see Qiao An’s increasingly plump body.
Li Xiaoran interrupted at the wrong time. “She went from 102 kilograms to 68 kilograms. Now, she’s recovering at the speed of 5 grams a day. Today, she weighs 76 kilograms.” 7
Li Zecheng looked very embarrassed. As a husband, he actually did not understand his wife’s body as well as his uncle. Fortunately, his uncle was a doctor and could comfort him. 1
“No wonder Little Uncle is known as the youngest and most outstanding surgeon. Little Uncle is so attentive to patients. My An’an is really lucky to have met Little Uncle.” Li Zecheng said politely.
Qiao An hated Li Zecheng’s duplicitous behavior. He had always had a problem with Li Xiaoran and often criticized Li Xiaoran in front of Qiao An for being immoral and not doing his job properly. All of Qiao An’s bad impression of Li Xiaoran was instilled by Li Zecheng. 1
Now that she saw Li Ze deliberately flattering Li Xiaoran to put on a front, Qiao An wanted to vomit.
She changed the topic. “Hubby, your tie clip is quite beautiful.” She forced herself to smile at him to dispel Li Zecheng’s guard against her. 1
Although it was disgusting to do it, Loco told Qiao An to learn from the King of Wu, Gou Jian, and to show her courage and boldness.
Li Zecheng lowered his head and glanced at his tie. A trace of confusion flashed across his eyes, but he immediately regained his composure.
He thought of the surveillance cameras at home, so he, who was already on guard, could deal with whatever came his way.
‘Oh, this was on my birthday the other day. Wei Xin gave me a tie clip.’
A mocking smile flashed in Qiao An’s eyes. For a man like him to be so open and aboveboard after doing something wrong, he had to be shameless to the brink.
In the past, she had fallen for his tricks. The more brazenly he acted, the more she trusted him.
But now, knowing what the tie clip meant, she could only give him a wide berth.
“Right, your birthday. I forgot to give you a present. Honey, you’re not going to blame me, are you?” Qiao An remembered his birthday, but she didn’t want to please him.
In the future, she never wanted to please him again.
Li Zecheng was magnanimous. “You’re recuperating in the hospital. It’s understandable that you didn’t buy me a gift.”
Qiao An closed her eyes. She didn’t want to talk to Li Zecheng anymore, so she deliberately pretended to be tired.
Li Zecheng was someone who would not give up until he achieved his goal. He had come today for the reward plan for his grandfather’s shares.
“An’an, Mommy wants to have a grandson. We should put the matter of giving birth on the agenda.”
Qiao An refused decisively. “I’m afraid I won’t be able to do it for a year or so. We’ll talk about giving birth later.”
“Do you not want to have children with me?” Li Zecheng’s voice turned cold.
Qiao An opened her eyes and looked at him steadily. “Yes.”
“Why?” Li Zecheng was furious.
“Because childbirth is harmful to the body, and I only want to protect my own body. Because I know that the only person I can trust when something happens to me is myself,” Qiao An teased Li Zecheng mercilessly.
Li Zecheng’s face was ashen. “How long are you going to hold a grudge for this?”
Qiao An said, “I don’t know.”
She supposed she would do it all her life.
A vicious glint flashed across Li Zecheng’s eyes. He turned to ask Li Xiaoran, “Uncle, is An’an about to be discharged?”
