Ten minutes later, Xia Wenxi opened the bathroom door.
"Lin Shen, Yoyo seems to... really come."
She raised her hand to show Lin Shen the results of the test she had just received. She felt that the possibility of all five pregnancy tests being wrong at the same time was unlikely.
Lin Shen pulled her hand down and hugged her.
"Xiaoxi, it seems we're going to be parents. Do you think it's too fast?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? If I thought it was too fast, wouldn't I have told you to take precautions in the first place?"
Lin Shen: "..."
"Xiaoxi, you change your clothes first, we're going to the hospital right away."
While waiting, Lin Shen prepared Xia Wenxi's clothes and their identification documents so they could leave at any time.
After seeing this, Xia Wenxi asked him, "Are you so sure I'm pregnant?"
"No, that's not true. Your periods have been irregular for the past two months, so you should go to the hospital for a checkup."
"Too."
Xia Wenxi went to the dressing room to change her clothes, but halfway there she turned back to look at Lin Shen. "Don't be too nervous. I heard your heart beating too fast when you hugged me just now."
Lin took a deep breath. "Okay, I'll try my best."
On their way to the hospital, Xia Wenxi was still thinking about what to name the child.
"Youyou sounds more like a girl. Are boys also called Youyou?"
Faced with this question, Lin Shen remained silent for a while, and then honestly said that his literary skills were only average.
"We can name the baby something else after it's born; this is just my initial idea."
"Who said that? I think you named it very well. If it were me, I would definitely name it Little Deer."
Xia Wenxi chuckled, feeling that her three years of graduate studies had been a waste.
"Your parents can choose your formal name. I think both your name and Wensheng's name are very good."
Lin Shen thought it was better than being called Lin Shen.
Xia Wenxi couldn't help but laugh. She told Lin Shen, "If you knew where the name Wensheng came from, you wouldn't say that."
But my brother said that the name Wenxi was chosen by my dad through a fortune teller, how amazing! We're a match made in heaven!
Lin Shen always felt that the character "Shen" in his name was probably just a random character his father picked from the list of characters with the water radical that looked good and sounded easy to pronounce.
It was only after he got together with Xia Wenxi that he felt his name began to have a better meaning.
In the quiet, deep forest, only the sound of the stream can be heard.
His life, which had been peaceful and unchanging, was about to change.
Now, a fawn is about to enter their lives.
Should we tell Mom and Dad?
Upon hearing this, Xia Wenxi turned on her phone to check the time. "After the check-up, we should still have time to go back for dinner. Let's tell them in person when we get there."
She had already started imagining that scene.
"I'm going to give them a big scare."
The couple went to the hospital for a thorough examination and confirmed that she was indeed pregnant, and that she was almost two months along.
On the way home, Xia Wenxi was still telling Lin Shen, "Don't give yourself away as soon as you walk in the door. I want to wait until after dinner to tell you."
She wanted to eat Aunt Li's cooking in peace.
After returning from the hospital, the two went back to their own home to pick up the gifts they had brought back for their families before visiting their parents.
As soon as Xia Wenxi sat down, her cat, Xiaoyuer, whom she hadn't seen in a long time, tried to jump onto her. Lin Shen quickly scooped the cat up and held it himself.
It weighs over ten kilograms, so even stepping on his stomach feels quite heavy. Imagine the impact if someone jumped on him.
Perhaps Lin Shen's movements were a bit too swift and exaggerated, because both Ke Shurong and Xia Hengyuan were stunned for a moment.
"Hehe, Lin Shen misses Xiaoyuer terribly."
"Really... So are you going to take Xiaoyuer back today? Or how about in a few more days? I think Xiaoyuer is getting used to it here. Anyway, it's not far. You can come over whenever you miss it."
Xia Wenxi had been in school all along, except for the period before graduation when she and Lin Shen often changed places to live, so Xiaoyuer did not live with them.
Ke Shurong was so preoccupied with her reluctance to part with Xiaoyuer that she didn't think much about anything else.
Xia Wenxi only remembered now that she had said not long ago that she would take Xiaoyuer back to their place when she returned.
"We'll pick up Xiaoyuer to play over on weekends, and once she's settled in, we can let her come to our place. Mom, do you think that's okay?"
"Sure, I can just visit it at your place often."
Ke Shurong kept talking to her daughter and didn't notice anything wrong.
But Xia Hengyuan...
He glanced at his son-in-law, who had been silent ever since he entered the room, and then looked at his actions and eyes, finding him very familiar.
But for a moment I couldn't quite place what it looked familiar.
While they were talking, Xia Wensheng and Minghuan returned, and it was time to eat.
Xia Wenxi breathed a sigh of relief; she was about to lose her patience if the meal hadn't been served soon.
At the dinner table, Xia Wenxi remained silent, simply eating three bowls of rice in silence, becoming the last person to put down his chopsticks.
Ke Shurong thought her daughter had eaten too much "white food" while abroad, which was why she had such a good appetite when she got home.
"Don't eat too much. If you like it, Aunt Li can make it for you tomorrow."
Xia Wenxi looked around and saw that no one was eating anymore, then calmly dropped a bombshell.
"It's okay, I didn't eat too much, it's just that I have a good appetite because I'm pregnant."
...
There was a moment of complete silence in the restaurant, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
