Xu Zhixia originally wanted to persuade Zhou An a few more times, but when she thought about it, she realized that she had already taken leave, and it would be useless for her to say anything more, so she simply stopped wasting her breath.
After finishing breakfast with a good appetite, he said goodbye to Mr. and Mrs. Xu and went to the pier.
Sitting on the boat, Zhou An stared at Xu Zhixia nervously, making her a little panicked.
Fortunately, we arrived in the city soon.
Because Xu Zhixia had been here once, she was familiar with the place this time.
After registering, wait quietly for your number to be called.
There weren't many people here, and she soon arrived.
Zhou An took her hand, took a deep breath, and the two of them slowly walked in.
"Hmm? Is that you?"
It was the same doctor from last time. She had a deep impression of Xu Zhixia.
Xu Zhixia smiled embarrassedly and sat opposite the doctor.
He introduced: "This is my lover."
Zhou An nodded slightly as a greeting.
The doctor nodded and got straight to the point: "What are you here for?"
Xu Zhixia touched the tip of her nose: "I haven't had my period for a month, so I wanted to come and see..."
She didn't finish the rest of the sentence, but the doctor understood what she meant.
"Go get a urine test. This is a new testing method our hospital has just introduced."
"It's just a little expensive, more than ten yuan. Do you think you can accept it?"
In fact, Xu Zhixia prefers Chinese medicine pulse diagnosis, but the current atmosphere is tense, so it is better not to do anything out of the ordinary at this critical juncture.
Without waiting for Xu Zhixia to speak, Zhou An directly agreed: "Okay."
Then he looked at Xu Zhixia and said, "Xia Xia, wait here for me. I'll go pay the bill."
After the doctor finished writing the examination form, Zhou An strode away.
Before Xu Zhixia could look away, she heard the doctor's teasing voice: "Comrade Xu, you really found a good lover."
She has seen countless pregnant women in the hospital over the years.
Only a few women are willing to come for a check-up, let alone those accompanied by their husbands.
Xu Zhixia pursed her lips, revealing an embarrassed smile, with a hint of happiness flashing in her eyes.
The doctor was right, Zhou An... is really fine.
Zhou An was very quick and went to do a urine test with Xu Zhixia after returning.
Because the results would not be available until the afternoon, the two of them went out for a meal first.
Xu Zhixia was no different from usual, but Zhou An was absent-minded.
Xu Zhixia helplessly made a joke: "If you are like this now, what if I really get pregnant, what will I do when I give birth?"
Zhou An was stunned for a moment, then his body tensed up when he realized what was happening.
He murmured, "Xia Xia, you are really thoughtful. We are still lacking a lot of things..."
He was thinking and talking, even mentioning what to prepare for the children after they go to school.
Xu Zhixia was overwhelmed and quickly stopped him: "Wait, isn't it too early for you to think about this now?"
Zhou An rarely showed an expression of disapproval: "Xia Xia, we always have to prepare first."
Xu Zhixia was really afraid that Zhou An would continue to nag about it and even "prepare" everything for the child's marriage.
He quickly changed the subject: "I was planning to go see my editor, but now it seems I might not be able to go."
Zhou An's eyes flashed with apology: "When I have time, I will accompany you."
Xu Zhixia didn't respond. Could it be that Zhou An treated her as a child too?
After eating and drinking, the two looked at the time and returned to the hospital.
Xu Zhixia sat down in the clinic, and Zhou An went to get the examination form as instructed by the doctor.
In just a few minutes, he hurried back.
The doctor took the examination form from him and glanced at it.
Xu Zhixia subconsciously held her breath and her heart beat faster.
The doctor suddenly smiled and looked up at them: "Congratulations, you are pregnant."
Even though she knew she might be pregnant, Xu Zhixia was still stunned when she heard the doctor say that.
She placed her hands on her belly and felt a little sore in her eyes.
There's a little life here...right?
In her previous life, she had been with Gu Yan for so many years but never conceived a child, which made her almost think that she could not get pregnant.
But now the appearance of this little life has dispelled all her worries.
Calculating the time, it should be the time when Zhou An said he wanted to "work hard".
Her chest felt swollen, as if something was about to break out of the ground.
"Xia Xia, we...are having a baby."
A hoarse voice sounded, bringing Xu Zhixia back to her senses.
Zhou An was seen squatting in front of her, trying to touch her belly carefully.
Then he seemed to have thought of something, and he quickly stood up and looked at the doctor, asking nervously, "What should we pay attention to?"
"How long until you come back for a re-check?"
"I heard pregnant women often feel nauseous. Is there any way to avoid this?"
The doctor looked at him in surprise. Generally speaking, men care more about whether a pregnant woman is carrying a boy or a girl.
This comrade is special. He only cares about his lover.
The doctor's favorability towards Zhou An increased significantly, and his explanation became more detailed.
Zhou An listened attentively and asked a few questions from time to time. I'm afraid he has never studied so seriously before.
A hint of tenderness flashed in Xu Zhixia's eyes. She sat quietly aside, watching this scene.
She thought...she would never forget it.
On the way back, Zhou An was unusually talkative, talking incessantly about his plans.
Xu Zhixia suddenly interrupted him: "Don't tell my parents about this yet, okay?"
Zhou An paused, a look of confusion appearing on his face.
He looked at Xu Zhixia and said nothing.
Xu Zhixia explained, "I want to talk to Haohao about this first and see his reaction."
The incident of inviting parents some time ago made her realize that Haohao was a very sensitive child.
So she wanted to tell Haohao before anyone else knew, to give him a sense of security.
Zhou An nodded and said, "That's how it should be."
Back home, the two pretended nothing had happened.
When Haohao got home from school in the evening, Xu Zhixia called him to the bedroom.
Ever since Haohao moved out with Xu's parents, he hasn't been to Xu Zhixia's room for a long time.
He felt a little embarrassed, but also a little surprised.
Xu Zhixia felt a pain in her heart, realizing that she had neglected Haohao too much during this period of time.
She waved her hand, motioning Haohao to come over, and held Haohao in her arms.
After carefully considering his words, he asked, "Haohao, do you prefer a younger brother or a younger sister?"
Haohao's little body stiffened, and his clear eyes seemed to see through everything.
He suddenly said, "Xia Xia, do you have a baby?"
Xu Zhixia didn't expect him to be so sharp. She felt at a loss for a moment and didn't know how to respond.
In fact, she could just lie and say that she didn't have it, and then let Haohao accept it slowly.
But...do we really need to do this?
There was a flicker of hesitation in her eyes, but she quickly made up her mind.
He cleared his throat and said, "Yes."
"So what do you think?"
