Fu Jiaojiao said, "It's a girl. My first child was a boy, so we can have a son and a daughter, which makes up the Chinese character for 'good' (好)."
"You're so lucky to have both a son and a daughter," Lu Zhixia said with a smile.
Fu Yanlin came to the corridor and saw Gu Lingxiao standing by the window looking outside.
"Bro! You and that girl, haven't you officially confessed your feelings yet?"
"How did you know?" Gu Lingxiao asked back.
Fu Yanlin knew he had guessed correctly just by looking at him, so he smiled and said,
"With your serious demeanor, there's no way you'd ever confess your feelings."
"Then tell me how to confess your feelings?" Gu Lingxiao looked at him.
Fu Yanlin began smugly, "First, you have to send flowers. You need to buy a huge bouquet, then wear your best clothes, find a nice place, like a movie theater—after the movie ends, suddenly pull out a bouquet of flowers, kneel down and make a promise..."
She thought to herself that these were all scenes she'd seen in movies, and no woman could resist them.
Even he had a little crush on her, but he couldn't say it out loud.
Gu Lingxiao seemed thoughtful after hearing this. Would Lu Zhixia like this?
"Sis, I'll be going now. I'll come see you later." Lu Zhixia's voice came from behind.
They looked back together and saw Lu Zhixia coming out of the ward.
Fu Yanlin turned to the side and said, "Brother, remember what I said, keep up the good work! Be sure to let me know when you get married, I want to come to the wedding."
Gu Lingxiao replied, "You too!"
Fu Yanlin turned to leave, increasingly feeling something was amiss. What did he mean by "you too"? Was he being pressured to get married again?
Well, in this life, if you haven't met someone you're attracted to, whether you get married or not doesn't really matter.
Birth, aging, sickness, and death are the natural course of life; however, giving birth does not guarantee one's own survival.
Lu Zhixia approached Gu Lingxiao before speaking, "Alright, we've delivered everything. Let's find a place to wait."
Gu Lingxiao immediately said, "Go to the doctor's office and wait there."
Lu Zhixia thought this would work, and since the first priority was to ask for help, she nodded and agreed to go with him to stand outside the doctor's office.
Several people were queuing to see a doctor, and after they came and went, there was no one outside the office.
Ma Jianguo stretched his body in the house, and when the clock struck, it was time to eat. He immediately grabbed his lunchbox and went outside, where he spotted the two people.
Then I remembered what I had promised and felt a little regretful, because you had to go early to get meat dishes in the cafeteria.
Several minutes were wasted in the time it took to say just a few words.
So he said impatiently, "Speak up, what do you want to ask?"
Gu Lingxiao said, "I think it's lunchtime, so we can talk while we eat."
"Are you treating us?" Ma Jianguo asked casually.
Lu Zhixia quickly replied, "Of course, you can eat whatever you want."
Ma Jianguo bluntly demanded, "Okay, let's go to the cafeteria for dinner. I want twice-cooked pork and spare ribs."
Lu Zhixia said, "Just eating meat isn't enough. How about we also have some fish and vegetables?"
Lu Zhixia could tell that this man was quite arrogant, and she figured it was because of his pride that he was making things so difficult for her.
Ma Jianguo had to look at them with new respect. He had deliberately made things difficult for them, but they not only agreed but also took it a step further. They felt that if they didn't eat this meal, they would be doing themselves a disservice.
"Come on, I'll take you to the cafeteria."
Lu Zhixia and Gu Lingxiao exchanged a glance. They knew that as long as they were willing to eat this meal, it meant that half the battle was won.
So the three of them quickly arrived at the cafeteria, where patients' family members came to get their meals and hospital staff lined up to eat.
Ma Jianguo casually pointed to the window with the shortest queue, "Go to that window for individual stir-fries, I'll find a seat in the corner."
"I'm going to buy food," Gu Lingxiao said. "You go with Dr. Ma."
“Okay.” Lu Zhixia immediately agreed.
So they split up and went their separate ways.
Lu Zhixia followed Dr. Ma to a corner seat and found that the hospital cafeteria was quite large, capable of accommodating several hundred people at the same time.
Ma Jianguo felt that one shouldn't be indebted to someone for their food, so he asked her...
"Comrade Lu, you've come all this way to see me, what is it you want to ask me? I haven't eaten yet, so just say it!"
Lu Zhixia said solemnly, "I want to know if my child had any physical characteristics, because I discovered that my child was switched."
Ma Jianguo was just about to drink water when he immediately put the cup down.
"How is this possible? Such a thing wouldn't happen in a hospital!"
