During the two days of waiting for the examination, Ren Rongzheng once again felt that every day was like a year. This period was really too torturous.
Zhan Beiqin carried the second baby to the hotel lobby. After walking a few laps, he came back. The child was tired and fell asleep in his arms. Zhan Beiqin gently put the child on the bed, and the child was still asleep.
"Look how cute our second baby is! He doesn't look sick at all. This must be a false alarm. Our child will be fine."
Zhan Beiqin kept looking at his sleeping baby with a smile that an old father loved on his face.
"I also think it's a false alarm, but the examination can't be done until the afternoon of the day after tomorrow. Time is really passing too slowly. So what should we do tomorrow?"
"You've been exhausted these past few days. Why don't you just take a good rest in the hotel tomorrow? If you don't want to stay in the hotel, then we can take the kids out for a walk to relax and distract ourselves. You can consider it. I'll listen to you tomorrow."
Ren Rongzheng nodded. He was exhausted both physically and mentally during this period. He really didn't want to move and just wanted to lie down in the hotel.
But lying in the hotel all the time, facing the environment of the two of them, it is easy to have wild thoughts. Going out for a walk, looking at the scenery and people, may make you feel better.
"Then go to bed early today and discuss it tomorrow."
"Okay, let's call home first and ask about Dabao and Sanbao's situation, then report that they are safe before going to bed."
Ren Rongzheng nodded, then called home. This era was really backward. There were no smartphones and video calls were not possible. He couldn't see his two babies from a distance.
"I'm glad you made it to the capital safely. Once you're there, just wait for the examination with peace of mind. You don't have to worry about the family. Dabao and Sanbao haven't had a fever since then. They eat and sleep right after, and they're very obedient."
"Okay, thank you Dad and Aunt Zhang for your hard work."
"That's right, it's what I should do."
After the phone call, both of them breathed a sigh of relief. Before, there was no father-son relationship between Zhan Beiqin and Zhan Tianzhu. After all, they were not real father and son in spirit.
But after spending some time together, especially after Zhan Tianzhu became a grandfather, he really worked hard for the family. Zhan Beiqin saw all of this, as did his stepmother Zhang Shuqin.
Originally, he was completely unacceptable to this stepmother, but after getting along with her, he found that although she had a certain purpose in looking for Zhan Tianzhu, she was actually down-to-earth, willing to endure hardships, and did her duty.
"I've already called them, and both children are fine. Don't worry, Rong Zheng, go to sleep."
Ren Rongzheng didn't say anything, just lay on the bed and closed his eyes. They booked a double room, so the family of three could only sleep in one bed.
Ever since her accident, she had never slept in the same bed with Zhan Beiqin again, let alone stayed in a private place for such a long time.
Ren Rongzheng was already very sleepy and should have been able to fall asleep as soon as she closed her eyes, but she couldn't fall asleep at this moment. She couldn't fall asleep for a long time, and then she opened her eyes.
She saw Zhan Beiqin wiping the face of the sleeping Erbao with a wet towel. His movements were very gentle, something she had never seen before.
"Zhan Beiqin, what should we do if our second baby is really diagnosed with childhood spasms?"
Zhan Beiqin originally thought that Ren Rongzheng was asleep, but her sudden words scared him and he quickly looked at her.
"If it is confirmed, there is nothing we can do. He is our child. Even if he does have intellectual problems in the future, we will still be responsible for him."
At this point, Zhan Beiqin sighed, paused for a moment, and then continued, "Didn't we agree before that after we divorce, I would take Dabao with me, and you would take Erbao and Xiaobao?
If Erbao is really diagnosed with this disease, then give him to me. It is too tiring for you to take care of two children. If one of these two children is sick, it will be even more tiring.
You take the eldest and the third child away, and I will take the second child. Don't worry, the problem you are worried about will not occur. I only said I would remarry because I didn't want to divorce you, and I was trying to provoke you.
I am very determined. Even if we really get divorced, I will not remarry. I will raise Erbao by myself. Don't worry, I will take good care of him. "
divorce?
Ren Rongzheng didn't think about this problem at the moment, and was only worried about the health of her second baby.
"You are a man after all, and you have to go to the military area every day. If Erbao really has intellectual problems in the future, he will always need someone to help him. You can't take him with you."
"You have your own career too. Wouldn't it be even harder to take care of him and the third child all day long?
It's okay, you know my secret. I have plenty of money. If I really divorce you, I can say that I am so poor that I only have money left.
If the day ever comes when I have to take care of my child all day, I can leave the military and become a full-time dad, taking care of him wholeheartedly."
"This isn't something you can persist in for a day or two, or even a year or two. It's something you'll have to endure for a lifetime. How could you, someone as proud as you, do nothing but stay at home and take care of the children?"
"What else?" Zhan Beiqin looked at Ren Rongzheng and asked, "No one in this world wants to have no career and just stay at home to take care of a sick child.
But reality has already become like this. Should we abandon that child? He is our own flesh and blood. How can we bear to abandon him? If we don't abandon him, then we must naturally give up everything to take care of him first, right?
I know you question me, but because I am a father, I am his biological father. For him, I can make any sacrifice as long as he is alive and well. "
If he hadn't experienced what happened in his previous life, Ren Rongzheng would have believed what he said completely. He believed that parents all over the world love their children, that all parents love their children, and that all parents are selfless. But...
"That's what you're saying now. If you're really tired of it, you'll dislike and abandon even your own child. Just like me, my parents abandoned me simply because I'm a girl and because I'm ugly.
Because I was abandoned by my parents myself, I know how pitiful such children are, so I don't want my children to follow in my footsteps. I am truly willing to give up everything and will accompany my children well. "
Zhan Beiqin was a little angry when he heard these words, but he did not refute her immediately. He just looked at her without blinking, which made Ren Rongzheng feel a little uneasy.
