Looking at the warm scene between mother and son, I feel envious.
My parents died early. If they were still alive, they would definitely be by my side now, taking care of me and the children.
I was lost in thought when Tang's mother suddenly asked me softly, "Son, are you here for the checkup too?"
I came to my senses and responded. Thinking about the B-ultrasound later, I subconsciously touched my lower abdomen.
This small movement was noticed by Tang's mother. She pulled me to sit next to her and asked, "Did you come here alone?"
I nodded a little awkwardly. Tang Jun and I are just work colleagues. Now that I'm facing her mother, I can't help but be cautious, afraid of saying the wrong thing.
Mother Tang's gaze lingered on my still flat belly for two seconds. She seemed to notice I was pregnant and said meaningfully, "This is a special time. Even though you're alone in the hospital, you still have to be extra careful."
Tang's mother's tone was gentle, like that of a kind elder, which warmed my heart and made me miss my parents even more.
I looked at Mother Tang with gratitude and responded obediently, "I understand. Thank you, Auntie."
As soon as she finished speaking, a nurse came out of the examination room and asked Tang's mother to come in for an examination.
Tang Jun and I were the only ones left in the corridor. I couldn't help feeling guilty being alone with her.
From the first day I met Tang Jun, I knew she liked Yan Meng. She agreed to work with me, more or less out of consideration for Yan Meng.
We could have been friends, but now...
I don't know if Tang Jun has seen the revelations online. If she did, she would definitely hate me, thinking that I had deceived her.
I don’t know if it was because I felt guilty, but I felt that the way Tang Jun looked at me was a little different from before, and her eyes glanced at my lower abdomen intentionally or unintentionally, which made me nervous.
I thought Tang Jun would question the relationship between me and Yan Meng, but Tang Jun's good upbringing made her remain polite to me and she didn't mention the revelations on the Internet.
Tang Jun casually asked about my work: "By the way, I heard that you resigned? The people who came to Huake to connect with projects recently are all people I don't know. When I asked them about you, they said you are no longer in the company."
I snorted in my heart. The people who were in charge of the Huake Real Estate Project were Yuan Yaxin's subordinates. Those people would definitely not say a good word about me in front of Tang Jun. They probably told Tang Jun all the ugly things that happened to me in the company.
But given Tang Jun's character and quality, she would never mention those things in front of me.
I was very grateful that Tang Jun tried her best to save my face. I admitted without hesitation, "Yes, you are also aware of the things going on in my family. I didn't want to bring any repercussions to the company, so I resigned."
Tang Jun understood, hesitated for a moment, and then took the initiative to comfort me: "It's okay. Someone as capable as you can do well in another company. If you need someone to write a letter of recommendation, I can help you."
"Thank you, Mr. Tang." I declined with a smile, "But I haven't been feeling well lately, so I'd like to take this opportunity to rest."
"Yeah. That's right." Tang Jun agreed, looking away with a thoughtful look.
There was silence between us for a few seconds. Tang Jun seemed to be struggling internally for a long time. Hesitantly, he spoke to me and tested me: "By the way, you came here for the checkup, why don't you even have anyone with you?"
