However, there were definitely some things that should never be shared recklessly.
"Currently, we don’t have any plans."
Old Qin naturally couldn’t say much more,
"Alright, you know your situation best. I’m watching things here; you go back first, your wife must be waiting for you."
Jiang Ye checked the time but didn’t comply,
"It’s okay, I’ll be done soon, it won’t take much longer."
There were undoubtedly times when it was okay to ask each other for help.
But now, when no one had any urgent matters, behaving like that seemed somewhat inappropriate, it felt like bullying.
Although Old Qin surely wouldn’t mind it.
The two running their laps finished their last lap incredibly slowly, but, in the end, they completed it within the scheduled time.
They ended up lying on the ground completely exhausted, gasping for breath.
Seeing no issues with them, Jiang Ye and Old Qin turned and left.
Everyone at home was waiting for them to come back for the meal; they didn’t want to dawdle.
They had been hungry all morning long.
Arriving at the base of the family’s building, Old Qin still had to go to the next block, while Jiang Ye went straight upstairs.
Upon opening the door, he was greeted by the delicious smell of food from the kitchen.
His face lit up with a smile.
Probably hearing the noise, Lu Jing came out of the kitchen,
"Yeah, what are you cooking?"
"I didn’t make anything new, it’s just what you made last night."
Lu Jing’s appetite was quite small, she couldn’t eat much, and Jiang Ye had to finish the rest otherwise it would go to waste, which would be such a shame!
"Quickly go wash your hands."
"Sure, as the wife says."
Jiang Ye went to the bathroom to wash his hands, and also rinse his dusty face, then came out flinging water from his hands.
By that time, Lu Jing had already served the reheated dishes on the table.
During the meal, the mood was quite lovey-dovey, resulting in Lu Jing giving him several stern looks:
"Just eat your food properly!"
Only then he finally began to focus on eating quietly.
Lu Jing didn’t have much appetite and stopped eating after a little.
After a few seconds of hesitation, she suddenly spoke seriously,
"Jiang Ye, I think I want to get a check-up."
Hearing this sudden statement, Jiang Ye was baffled.
"What check-up? What’s uncomfortable?" he asked.
Lu Jing moved her lips slightly,
"Um... you know... that..."
Jiang Ye was even more confused,
"Which ’that’? Wife, be more specific."
It was making Jiang Ye quite anxious.
Lu Jing took a few deep breaths, closed her eyes, and finally gathered the courage to speak,
Jiang Ye’s chopsticks dropped from his hand in shock,
This wasn’t a sudden thought.
She had been considering it for a while, and it could be said that she had thoroughly thought it through:
She really wanted a child!
After all, neither of them were young anymore.
Also, they hadn’t been using contraception for a long time, but there hadn’t been any news, which worried Lu Jing greatly.
If it turned out that she could never have children again... she couldn’t bear to think about it.
Anyway, it wasn’t something Lu Jing could easily accept.
After calming down for a bit, Jiang Ye asked,
"Wife, are you really sure about this?"
He asked quite formally.
"Of course, I’m certain!"
Wanting a child wasn’t something to be tentative about.
They were also too impetuous in their youth, not considering things thoroughly.
Otherwise, if the child were still here, he would be in elementary school by now.
Jiang Ye thought for about two to three seconds:
"Okay, you aren’t working tomorrow, I’ll find some time to go with you."
"Tomorrow might not work."
It was her time of the month, and many tests couldn’t be done.
But how would a man understand such things?
Lu Jing couldn’t bother explaining too much:
"Next week is possible, not now. Stop asking, let’s eat quickly, it’s getting cold."
The weather had turned cold, and without the air-conditioning on, the food had cooled down with the breeze blowing.
Comparing this, Jing City was definitely better, they should have turned on the heating by now, right?
Jiang Ye was feeling overwhelmed inside, not even noticing the chilled food, as he hurriedly shoveled the food from his bowl.
After finishing, he promptly cleaned up the dishes and then went to the kitchen to wash them.
Forget washing dishes, he felt like he could run ten kilometers on the training ground right now without a problem.
After all, his wife had just brought up wanting kids!
Although they had subtly talked about it before, his attitude had never been as serious as this time.
When Jiang Ye used to be at the training ground and Old Qin asked him why they hadn’t had kids yet, he felt extremely uncomfortable.
Damn, he really wanted a child immediately!
Just thinking about having a small life that belonged to both him and his wife made his heart feel like it was melting. Follow current novᴇls on Novᴇl_Fire(.)net
So after he finished washing the dishes, excited, he ran to the living room and immediately hugged the woman who was using her phone.
"What are you doing?" she exclaimed, startled by his sudden embrace.
Holding her but not content, Jiang Ye cupped her face and kissed her repeatedly:
"Wife, wife, you are really wonderful!"
Lu Jing immediately rolled her eyes several times:
"Enough already, can you not be so childish?"
And, was he treating her like a pet?
"Wife, can’t I be happy?"
Lu Jing mixed laughter and helplessness:
"That’s too quick to be happy, in case..."
She hadn’t managed to finish her words when the man sealed her words with a kiss.
"Still talking nonsense?"
"What I meant was..."
Fine, better not say it; couldn’t she see he was glaring fiercely?
If she spoke another word, she might suffer again.
Seeing this, the man finally smiled:
"Wife, you must tell me in advance the day you make the appointment, I’ll go with you!"
How could he not accompany her?
He simply couldn’t be at ease!
He had to be involved in the whole process!
It’s just that the hospital probably wouldn’t agree.
"Alright, alright, I get it, I’ll notify you when it’s time, okay?"
"You said it, no going back on your word, or else..."
Could he be resorting to physical means?
He certainly wouldn’t be violent, the man leaned in closer, lowered his head, and whispered in the woman’s ear:
Lu Jing pushed the man in front of her away:
Sometimes Lu Jing really wanted to cut open a certain someone’s brain to see if it was filled with lewd thoughts?
Jiang Ye stood up and even dusted off his pants:
"Wife, remember what I said, don’t forget!"
"Okay, okay, I’m off to the office, call me if you need anything."
He had delayed too much work these past few days, really busy, not even having lunch breaks.
If it weren’t for constantly thinking about his little wife, he probably wouldn’t have come home to the staff quarters and would have opted for the convenience and speed of solving meals in the cafeteria.
