Listening to Miao Cuixia's nagging voice, Miao Yijiajia was extremely annoyed. She didn't sleep the whole night, and coupled with her restless mood, her temples ached and her head felt dizzy.

"Jia Jia?" When she didn't hear her say anything, Miao Cuixia paused and asked, "Are you listening?"

There was no way Miao Yijia would go to the hospital with her for a checkup. She didn't even want to find a good excuse and simply refused: "Aunt, I'm sorry, I have something to do today, so it's not convenient for me."

"ah?"

"Really, I made an appointment with a friend."

"What's the matter? If it's not important, just postpone it. The most important thing right now is the baby in your belly. The sooner you get checked, the sooner you can rest assured. Otherwise, I'll always be worried."

The word "child" was like a blow to Miao Yijia's forehead. She was so annoyed that she suppressed her emotions and said, "Aunt, it's almost time. I won't talk to you for now. We'll talk later."

After speaking quickly, Miao Yijiajia immediately pressed the hang-up button. Miao Cuixia didn't know where she lived, so there was no need to worry that she would come to her rashly.

Her ears became quiet, but her heart could not calm down for a long time.

The thought of her pregnancy occupied her entire mind.

Miao Yijiajia grabbed a handful of her hair, lowered her head and hugged her knees, tears streaming down her face silently.

She just acted out of line just once, how could she be so unlucky?

*

Throughout the day, Miao Cuixia called countless times, like a death warrant, and she kept talking about the child. Miao Yijia came up with all kinds of excuses to evade the call, and was almost driven crazy by her.

Miao Yijia didn't go anywhere. She stayed in her rented house all day and didn't eat much. Before she knew she was pregnant, she didn't feel any discomfort. But once she knew, she felt uncomfortable all over.

She also wanted to know the exact answer, so she checked online and found that pregnancy test sticks were not 100% accurate.

Miao Yijiajia searched for a hospital and made an appointment on her mobile phone. She took a taxi there at around eight o'clock the next morning.

She wore sunglasses and a mask, and a long, pea-green sun-protective jacket that covered her from head to toe. Many women wore similar sun-protective gear, so her outfit didn't stand out.

The cell phone in her bag rang. Miao Yijiajia felt guilty and looked around before taking out her phone.

It’s Miao Cuixia again.

A trace of annoyance flashed across her eyes, which were blocked by sunglasses, and her brows were furrowed. Miao Yijia didn't want to pay attention to her. Just as her finger was about to press the reject button, she thought again and answered the call instead: "Aunt."

"Hey, Jiajia, are you free today? Auntie will accompany you to the doctor..."

The rest of the words were drowned out by the sound of the ambulance, which was parked very close to Miao Yijiajia.

Miao Yijiajia was standing in the middle, blocking the road. The medical staff asked her to move to the side. The two doors at the back of the ambulance were opened, a mobile bed was lifted out, and the patient walked up the stairs and was pushed into the emergency hall. A doctor was kneeling on the mobile bed performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation on the patient.

After a burst of noise, Miao Cuixia on the other end of the phone asked suspiciously, "Jia Jia, where are you? The hospital?"

Miao Yijia pursed her lips tightly under the mask. Knowing she couldn't fool him, she confessed, "Yes, I came to the hospital."

"Why are you going to the hospital by yourself, kid? I told you I'd accompany you." Miao Cuixia said, "Which hospital are you in? I'm rushing over right now."

"No need to bother."

Miao Yijiajia didn't say much to her, hung up the phone, and walked towards the outpatient building in front.

Xia Xi happened to be free and came to the hospital to get some medicine for Su Jinru. Some of the medicine was not available at other pharmacies. Parking was difficult in the hospital, so she circled around and finally found a space and parked in.

After getting out of the car, she saw that the sun was scorching, so she walked around to the passenger seat, took out a parasol from the storage compartment, and opened it to block the sun from above her head.

Xia Xi saw a woman wrapped up tightly not far away. There was nothing strange about it, but the other person's figure and walking posture seemed familiar, as if she was someone she knew. Xia Xi stared at her for a while.

She found that the other party seemed to be avoiding something, walking and stopping, looking around.

Out of a sense of caution that he himself did not understand, Xia Xi lowered the brim of his umbrella and continued to observe behind the man.

A few minutes later, Xia Xi had the answer in his mind. The person seemed to be Miao Yijiajia.

What is she doing in the hospital?

He just came, and acted sneakily.

Miao Yijiajia was extremely nervous, and only felt a little relieved when she entered the outpatient hall. She took out her ID card from her bag, got a medical card from the self-service machine, and printed out the registration receipt.

Following the instructions, she went to the gynecology department on the third floor, scanned her receipt, and sat on a public chair in the waiting area with her bag, waiting for her number to be called.

From time to time, the radio would sound a reminder that someone was going to a certain clinic.

Miao Yijiajia's legs were shaking unconsciously. She was waiting anxiously, glancing at the information displayed on the screen from time to time.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, I finally heard my name being called on the radio.

Miao Yijia was extremely nervous. She stood up and looked around, fearing that someone around her might recognize her. She found the corresponding clinic, waited for the last person to come out, and then went in.

Xia Xi stood at the corner and watched Miao Yijia enter a clinic. She only emerged after the door closed. The waiting area was mostly occupied by women, with a few men accompanying their families.

This is the gynecology department.

Xia Xi had a strong premonition and frowned.

I hope it's not what she thinks, otherwise things will be complicated.

In the clinic, Miao Yijiajia described her symptoms, especially that her period was delayed. The doctor initially judged that she was pregnant, but further examinations were needed to confirm it.

The doctor wrote her a prescription and asked her to come back after the examination.

Miao Yijiajia walked out in a daze, holding the list, and even forgot to wear sunglasses and a mask.
