Su Li took it as a joke and uninterestedly pulled her hand away, saying, "It's getting late, let's go to the hospital."
Quan Ye gave a soft "hmm" and followed her out.
It was the weekend, and the hospital was crowded, but Quan Ye used his special privileges to arrange a private consultation room for her and invited a specialist for a consultation.
After completing all the full-body examinations, it was already one or two o'clock in the afternoon, and Su Li was so hungry that she felt a little weak.
"Have some porridge."
Quan Ye had his bodyguard buy porridge, opened the lid, and handed it to her.
Su Li lost her appetite after a few bites. "Mr. Quan, if you're busy, you can go ahead. I'll just wait for the test results myself."
He's staying here all day instead of going to the company; there's probably a ton of work waiting for him there.
No rush.
"Mr. Quan, it's a call from the company." The bodyguard walked over with the phone.
Quan Ye got up and went to the other side to answer the phone.
Right next door is the obstetrics and gynecology outpatient clinic. From here, Su Li can see many pregnant women walking back and forth, and the corridor is also full of people.
There were no seats available for a pregnant woman, so her husband helped her to Su Li's side.
"Miss, is this seat taken?" the other person asked politely.
Su Li shook her head: "No, please sit down."
The man helped the pregnant woman sit down and said considerately, "Honey, you sit down first, I'll go register."
"good."
The woman's belly was already quite large, at least six or seven months along.
Su Li stared at her protruding pregnant belly, unable to look away for some reason.
The woman perhaps noticed her gaze and smiled, "Young lady, are you here for a prenatal checkup too?"
"No, I'm here to do other tests."
"That's true. It's better to have a good physical check-up before trying to conceive. You need to be in good health before getting pregnant in order to have a healthy baby."
She had misunderstood, but Su Li was too lazy to explain.
The woman gently stroked her belly and said, "Giving birth is a painful experience for women, but the thought of having a lovely baby by my side fills me with joy and excitement."
“You still have a husband, and I think he treats you very well.”
"It's alright, I give him the money he's owed, but he still spends a lot of money on his affairs outside. I guess we just have to make do." The woman's face was gloomy as she spoke, her eyes devoid of light, as if she had long since given up on her marriage.
Su Li didn't know how to respond, so she remained silent.
The woman seemed to have found an outlet for her emotions and continued, "Don't laugh at me, but I discovered he was going out to see other women from the second month of my pregnancy. I found out all his chat and transfer records. He went to see them about three times a week. He's already a super member of that club. Men can never control themselves; they can't resist temptation at all."
"Then why don't you divorce him?"
“I stopped working when I was pregnant, and I didn’t have much money. If I got divorced, I wouldn’t have money to raise the child. Anyway, as time goes by, there’s no feeling left. It’s the same no matter who I’m with. Is there any point in getting a divorce? I treat him like my monthly ATM. I won’t care what he does outside.”
Su Li felt extremely depressed listening to this, but she wasn't qualified to comment too much on marriage, since she hadn't experienced it herself.
“If your husband doesn’t cherish and understand you after you get married, you’ll feel like a homeless child.”
After speaking, the woman silently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Honey, it's our turn." The woman's husband returned, his face full of tenderness and concern for his wife.
But all of this seems somewhat ironic.
"Okay." The woman didn't take the man's hand, but instead leaned on the back of the chair and got up on her own, walking towards the examination room.
Su Li stared at their figures, lost in thought for a long time.
She didn't even notice when Quan Ye walked back to her side.
What are you looking at so intently?
