"Okay, okay, that's no problem!"
As soon as he was told that he needed to go to the city hospital for a check-up, He Yubo approved it without thinking.
"It's best if you stay there for a while to ensure his physical condition. Come back when you're healthy. There's no rush for training. The institute can still function without her."
After approving the note, He Yubo gave another reminder.
He changed the extra day to seven days so that He Beichen and Li Xin could do their work without any worries.
Although the army has strict military laws, it is a very humane place. These comrades have their own private matters to attend to. In addition, He Beichen and Li Xin are not the kind of people who would ask for leave casually, so they will of course help them within their ability.
Seeing this full vacation, He Beichen shook his head with a helpless look.
"It's just a prenatal checkup, it doesn't take that long."
However, if he had this leave, he would be able to take care of Li Xin for a longer period of time, which would not be a bad thing.
After approval, He Beichen came back with the leave note, and Li Xin held the phone to report the good news to his parents.
In the first few days of her pregnancy, she was tortured by morning sickness and wanted to die. Only now did she feel that her emotions had stabilized a little and she was able to socialize normally.
"Mom, I have something to tell you..." Li Xin said to the other end of the phone, "I'm pregnant. I think I'm almost two months pregnant, but I won't know the exact situation until I go to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow."
Li Xin's voice was brisk, and his words were filled with uncontrollable joy.
This information made Su Miao pause for a moment.
Her daughter is in poor health, and giving birth and raising a child will be extremely difficult. Although she supports Li Xin and He Beichen in having a child, she secretly hopes that this matter can come later.
Who would have thought that they would get pregnant so quickly!
"You must remember, eat whatever you want. If you have no appetite, you can eat some sour plums, but you must eat. Only when you eat it can it become nutrition for your child."
After being stunned for a moment, Su Miao was happy for her daughter, so she quickly reminded her and passed on all her previous experiences of pregnancy to Li Xin.
Listening to her mother's chattering, Li Xin felt happy. She rubbed her flat belly with her hand and felt a little bit of anticipation in her heart.
There are so many people waiting for her child.
"Once we're done with our current tasks, your father and I will take some time off and come visit you. As for the research institute...you shouldn't stay there all the time. Be careful with the kids."
As long as Li Xin is healthy, she can ignore everything else.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Of course I'll put myself first and will never hurt myself." Li Xin made a solemn promise and chatted for a while before reluctantly hanging up the phone.
…
Early the next morning, when Li Xin and He Beichen woke up and went out, they saw two special forces soldiers standing outside the door.
They were wearing casual clothes, but their aura seemed extremely solemn and gave people an inexplicable seriousness, which made people feel a little scared when they saw them.
However, when I look into their eyes, I feel extremely secure and reliable.
"What are you two doing here?" Not only was Li Xin confused, even He Beichen was a little puzzled.
With his skills, he is more than capable of protecting Li Xin when going out with him.
"We were ordered by our superiors to come and protect Comrade Xiao Li. She is an important person in our institute and needs to be accompanied when she goes out alone."
The special forces soldier at the door spoke word by word, and his answer was extremely loud.
He Beichen: "..."
He reached out and rubbed his eyebrows. At this moment, he felt a little helpless, but he didn't say much.
His strength seems to be pretty good, right?
Doesn’t grandpa trust me so much?
Fortunately, they borrowed a military vehicle, and it was quite convenient to have a free driver.
When they entered the hospital, many people were queuing up, and some pregnant women with big bellies also smiled friendly when they saw Li Xin and the young couple.
Several patients in serious condition were also communicating with each other. While waiting for examination, everyone opened up the conversation casually, as if there were endless topics to talk about.
"The baby is developing very healthily, but because you have a weak constitution, you need to eat good food during pregnancy so that you will have enough strength and nutrition for delivery." After the doctor completed the relevant examinations for Li Xin, he looked at her twice and spoke with a smile.
When she heard that the baby in her belly was fine, Li Xin felt that the big stone in her heart had finally fallen to the ground, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
He Beichen, who had been standing by, stretched out his fingers to hold Li Xin's hand. Although he couldn't help Li Xin much, he could still give her some strength.
When the two of them took some medicine to supplement trace elements from the hospital, He Beichen took Li Xin to the vegetable market.
It's a mess over there, but there are chickens, ducks, fish and all kinds of things.
"Buy some more delicious food. When you go back, we will slowly stew some soup to help you replenish your body." He Beichen waved his hand and gave instructions.
The two of them couldn't carry so many things, so the two guys next to them came in handy.
The two men returned to the military area with a lot of things in their hands. If you didn't know, you would think they were going out to purchase goods.
Especially when He Beichen was carrying those fish, a faint fishy smell drifted over, making Li Xin couldn't help but cover his nose with his hand and subconsciously step back a little.
"You can't even stand the smell of fish?" Seeing Li Xin keeping his distance from him, He Beichen could only sigh and felt a little sorry for himself.
The young wife wouldn't let him hold her hand.
He took so much, but it was all for Li Xin, but in the end he was despised!
"But the smell is too strong. I feel like vomiting. How about... putting these fish away?" Li Xin saw that He Beichen looked a little hurt, so he overcame it and took the initiative to walk towards him.
However, she only took two steps forward when the fishy smell wafted over and she couldn't help but dry heave twice.
Li Xin turned his head and started to retch to the side. His look and expression looked as if he had suffered a great injustice.
He Beichen: "..."
He didn't dare to get closer to her. Instead, he quickly stepped back several steps and kept some distance from Li Xin.
"These are all fresh live fish. Logically speaking, the fresher the fish is, the better it tastes." He Beichen explained from a distance, his voice neither too loud nor too soft, just enough for Li Xin to hear.
They have already bought it, and they have walked halfway with it. It is impossible for them to turn back and return the fish, right?
Li Xin rubbed the tip of his nose and said evasively, "Then... just throw it into the space and keep it there for now?"
This is also the best way.
"Let's talk about it after we get back." He Beichen nodded silently, agreeing with Li Xin's words.
