Chapter 202 No Room for Carelessness
"I just don't want to smell chicken soup. Could you please get me something else?"

"Oh."

Seeing this, Huo Jingyuan stopped being stiff and left the bedroom with the chicken soup. He went downstairs and headed straight for the landline. He and Wen Ci had booked the train for 5 p.m.

Now, I'm planning to postpone taking the train.

I'm going to the hospital this afternoon to give Wen Ci a check-up.

Seeing his brother-in-law's excited face, Wen Yaozu asked, "Brother-in-law, why are you so excited about going to a place like northern Shaanxi?"

"Yaozu, you're going to be an uncle."

"what?"

Immediately, Wen Yaozu's eyes widened, and he stared blankly for a while before asking, "Brother-in-law, are you saying my sister is pregnant?"

"Yeah, your sister's been feeling nauseous, she's definitely pregnant!"

Suddenly, Huo Jingyuan remembered that there weren't many ingredients left at home, and there wasn't enough time to make two pancakes for Wen Ci to fill her stomach.

"Your sister is still hungry. Go to the cafeteria and buy two pancakes. I'll ask my boss for leave and accompany your sister to the hospital for a check-up this afternoon!"

"Ok!"

Wen Yaozu ran towards the military canteen with a smile on his face.
-
Upstairs, the smell of chicken soup gradually dissipated. Wen Ci slowly sat up from the bed, leaning against the headboard, as a ray of sunlight streamed into the room from outside the window.

Wen Ci placed his hand on her pulse.

She learned some basic traditional Chinese medicine knowledge in the Northwest Military Region. Huo Jingyuan's reaction was so intense that she wondered if she was really pregnant.

A moment later, Wen Ci breathed a sigh of relief.

Not pregnant.

However, there's a 50% chance that she's not accurate when she takes her own pulse, and she's a novice who hasn't been learning Traditional Chinese Medicine for very long.

After finishing his call, Huo Jingyuan went upstairs with a worried look on his face: "Honey, I still have to take the train to northern Shaanxi on time this afternoon."

"Once you've rested enough, Yaozu will accompany you to the hospital this afternoon for a comprehensive check-up. Don't rush to come with me to northern Shaanxi to join the army then."

The journey from Beijing to northern Shaanxi takes fifteen hours by car. He arrived in northern Shaanxi at exactly eight o'clock, and the leaders there wanted to introduce him when the entire army was assembled.

More importantly, when the wind blows in northern Shaanxi, the loess soil covers the sky, sand and fog fill the air, and the smell of dust is pungent, which outsiders find very unsettling.

Wen Ci said calmly, "No need for a check-up. I'll take the bus with you to northern Shaanxi this afternoon."

"No, you need to go to the hospital for a checkup."

Wen Ci said helplessly, "I'm not pregnant."

"I do not believe."

Upon hearing this, Wen Ci stretched out her hand, "If you don't believe me, you can take your own pulse. I just took my own pulse, and it's not a sign of pregnancy. I just don't have much of an appetite."

Huo Jingyuan had no knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine.

But he knew there was a chance the doctor's pulse reading was inaccurate, so he became more serious than ever before. "Honey, this concerns the baby, we can't be careless. We still need to go to the hospital for a checkup."

Seeing that he couldn't persuade Huo Jingyuan.

Wen Ci said, "Let's go to the hospital for a check-up now. If I'm really pregnant, I'll stay in Beijing for the time being. If I'm not pregnant, we'll leave this afternoon, okay?"

Huo Jingyuan shook his head: "No."

He could see that Wen Ci was exhausted, both physically and mentally, and that it would be better for her to stay home and rest rather than go to the hospital.

"When it comes to matters concerning the children, I make the decisions!"

Wen Yaozu jogged upstairs, knocked on the bedroom door, grabbed two pancakes and an egg, and came in: "Sister, I brought two pancakes and an egg. Fill your stomach first, and I'll make porridge for you and your nephew in a bit."

Wen Ci: ...

She glared at Huo Jingyuan fiercely, gritting her teeth: "What did you two talk about? It's not even close to happening yet."
