Li Mo first nodded at Bai Xin, giving her an assuring glance before he turned to Bai Zhi and Wu Wa.
Perhaps because he sensed Bai Zhi’s fear, he crouched down and gently took the hands of the two little girls, smiling at them before he spoke.
"Hello, I am Li Mo, you can call me Uncle Li. Bai Zhi, there’s no need to be afraid, it won’t hurt. I’ll take you for a checkup shortly. Then, how about Uncle treats you to hotpot, okay?"
Are doctors nowadays this gentle? Even coaxing children? Why had she heard that people in this era were particularly haughty?
Perhaps what she heard were just exceptions. Maybe actually they were really nice young men, Bai Zhi thought.
While Bai Zhi was pondering, Li Mo thought she was scared. So, he held her hand and walked towards the examination room.
Bai Xin had said that they must check everything thoroughly, regardless of whether they found anything or not, then they would all be reassured.
Wu Wa and Bai Xin waited outside, time ticking away second by second.
Bai Xin and Wu Wa kept pacing back and forth outside.
"Wu Wa, has it been an hour yet? Li Mo said it would only take a little while, why is it taking so long?"
Bai Xin was extremely anxious, the longer it took, the more it seemed like there was a problem.
Wu Wa didn’t understand either, she was anxious too.
"Little girl, I don’t know either, don’t you have a watch?"
Wu Wa’s reminder made Bai Xin slap her forehead, indeed, she had a watch, she was just confused in her rush.
"It’s now half-past seven, what time did they go in?"
She was so anxious that she couldn’t remember anything.
"At fifteen past seven, I remember."
Wu Wa hurried to respond, she remembered clearly when they went in.
"Oh, only fifteen minutes?"
Bai Xin couldn’t believe it, but it felt like a very long time had passed.
It felt so long to her, as if several hours had stretched by, her heart tightened and she couldn’t even think clearly.
Constantly pacing did nothing to calm her heart.
If Xingxing were alright, that would be the best, but if there was a problem...
Bai Xin narrowed her eyes, just the thought of that possibility made her want to kill Bai Da instantly—Xingxing was still just a child.
"Little girl, Xingxing will be okay, right?"
Wu Wa took Bai Xin’s hand, her eyes brimming with tears, she was a bit scared.
In the past, Wu Wa never knew fear, whether climbing mountains, swimming in rivers, or falling from trees, she was never scared.
But this time, for some unknown reason, she felt scared, scared that something might happen to Ah Zhi.
Bai Xin looked at the small girl in front of her, still a child, yet worrying about Xingxing just like her, yet she had failed to notice—that was rather inconsiderate of her.
Bai Xin squatted down, cradling Wu Wa’s small face, and spoke earnestly,
"No, Xingxing will be fine, definitely fine."
She told this to Wu Wa, and also to herself.
"Um, Ah Zhi will definitely be fine."
Wu Wa also nodded vigorously, Ah Zhi was the kindest person in the world to her, apart from Mommy and Wu La, nothing would happen.
Just at that moment, the door opened.
Bai Xin immediately stood up and walked over with Wu Wa, Li Mo was the first to emerge.
Two anxious voices rose at the same time, both looking towards Li Mo.
"The results will take a while longer because the film isn’t out yet, but Bai Zhi will be out shortly, she was very cooperative and well-behaved."
