"What? Go to the hospital?" Fu Sheng stood up from his chair. "Why do we need to go to the hospital for a checkup?"
His voice was so loud that everyone in the restaurant, from diners to waiters, turned to look at him.
I said I was going to the hospital for a physical examination.
Yoshiko Takeuchi lowered her eyes as she cut her steak. "Since we're trying to conceive, we should at least get a proper check-up on our health, right?"
Her health is not good, and it is common for her to have physical examinations and blood tests.
"Yes... but you should just get your checkup done, why drag me into it?"
Fu Sheng retorted, "I'm not sick at all, I'm perfectly healthy."
"If you're healthy, then it's just a checkup, why get so worked up?"
Yoshiko Takeuchi put down her knife and fork and looked at the man. "I don't have your health report yet. Isn't that inappropriate?"
Fu Sheng, who is full of "rituals", cares most about Takeuchi Yoshiko's health and carefully collects her medical examination reports every year.
She also said, "The best way to show care for your loved one is to care about her health."
Yoshiko Takeuchi said, "I'm just concerned about you."
Fu Sheng: "..."
He has been speechless three times today, and each time his wife quotes something, he feels a deep sense of powerlessness.
The table fell silent again. Yoshiko Takeuchi seemed to have a great appetite, and after finishing her steak, she had a dessert.
Fu Sheng opened his mouth, about to speak, when his phone rang.
After glancing at the number, the man put down his knife and fork and stood up. "It's a business matter. I'm going out to take this call."
After saying that, he walked out of the restaurant, stood at a distance outside, and waved to Yoshiko Takeuchi through the glass wall.
Unfortunately, no one responded; his wife didn't even turn her head.
She was still in the same position, scooping ice cream and putting it on her tongue, her head down, seemingly lost in thought.
Lin Zhenzhen's voice came through the microphone, "Tomorrow is my prenatal checkup. Will you come back to be with me?"
Fu Sheng valued this child highly, and he accompanied him to the previous events.
"No." Fu Sheng looked at his indifferent wife in the restaurant, feeling a little anxious. "Go by yourself."
"Just let Li Fu come along."
"Oh..." The lover's voice sounded somewhat annoyed, "So when are you coming to see me?"
when?
Fu Sheng didn't know when it happened.
Everything seems to be out of control now.
Having failed to acquire the land and funds he had hoped to obtain, he felt empty and naturally had no desire to comfort his lover.
"I don't have time. Just tell Li Fu what you need, and we can settle the accounts together later."
At this point, Fu Sheng was losing patience.
He gave a few perfunctory words and then hurriedly hung up the phone.
He needed to appease his wife.
Although everything seems the same as before today, with no changes.
But the biggest problem is that there are no problems.
Yoshiko Takeuchi showed no emotion whatsoever, as if she had no desires after removing the child from her world.
He was unbelievably indifferent.
In this situation, you can only carefully put on a smiling face and act silly to make her happy.
Thinking of this, Fu Sheng took a deep breath and walked into the restaurant.
...
Lin Zhenzhen was lying on the sofa with her legs crossed.
"Did you hear what I just said?"
Fu Sheng asked Li Fu to accompany her to her prenatal checkup, which meant she could finally go out.
Of course, the word "finally" is not accurate.
These past two days, thanks to her coaxing, Li Fu has managed to take her for a stroll in the garden.
Except for not being able to travel far, everything else remains the same.
Since Fu Sheng wasn't around and Li Fu was easy to talk to, she could do whatever she wanted.
Once we've won over Fu Sheng's confidants, what is there to fear?
What's more, this confidant also secretly loves him.
That's really interesting.
In the past two days, Lin Zhenzhen finally discovered why Li Fu likes her.
"Oh, that person is you. I didn't know." Lin Zhenzhen recalled the scene when she helped Fu Sheng and his brother bandage their wounds.
In order to put on a good show and establish the image of a "good sister-in-law" in front of his brothers, he enthusiastically performed in this world.
To gain popularity by bandaging someone's wounds.
Little did he know, he was the third, and he didn't even know which number he was.
She only received special treatment because she was pregnant.
"Yes, I was slashed at the time, and you were the one who bandaged and disinfected it."
Li Fu's eyes lit up when he talked about this.
He had never been taken care of by anyone except his "elder sister-in-law".
Of course, he knew she was his elder brother's woman, and no matter how much he liked her, he could only keep it to himself.
Lin Zhenzhen is kind and gentle; she is the white moonlight in his heart.
No one had ever treated him so gently, bandaging his wounds.
He was the only one who took care of others.
He's been like this since he can remember. As the eldest brother, he has to take care of his younger siblings, and all the dirty and tiring work is his responsibility.
He never complained about the hardship or fatigue, and even when he was injured, no one asked him if he was in pain.
Besides Lin Zhenzhen.
She was the first person to tell him to bear with the pain and not be afraid of it.
Just kidding, it's just a cut, what's the big deal?
Just watching the woman's gentle touch, his heart had unknowingly fallen for her.
"Is the wound alright?" The woman suddenly knelt on the sofa, stood up, and leaned closer to look.
As he bent down, Li Fu's angle was just right to see the mountains below her collarbone.
She wasn't wearing a bra, and it was trembling so brightly.
Lin Zhenzhen's hand touched the man's arm, her fair skin contrasting sharply with his tanned skin.
"Sit still." Li Fu suppressed the itch in his throat and swallowed. "Don't move around."
The woman seemed to sense his gaze, clutched her chest, and stared wide-eyed. "Where...where are you looking?"
