Huo Shaohua guided Tian Xingyun to a seat by the window.
As soon as they sat down, a breeze blew in, making it feel very comfortable.
The air was also better than at their previous spot, not as stifling.
"This place feels nice," Tian Xingyun said, looking at the welcoming breeze coming through the window.
"Next time, we’ll switch hospitals for your check-up," Huo Shaohua said coldly, sitting beside her.
This hospital was too crowded, with so many people packed into the small waiting area.
Not getting fresh air wasn’t good for the baby.
"I think it’s fine," Tian Xingyun smiled, understanding that it was normal for a public hospital to have many people.
"Grandma has an old friend who owns a hospital, we’ll go there for the check-up next time."
"It’s the same here. We don’t need to owe anyone a favor."
"Do you really feel comfortable here?" For him, it was extremely uncomfortable, almost suffocating.
Just imagine how much worse it must be for pregnant Tian Xingyun.
"It’s alright, we’re not staying long; we’ll be leaving soon."
"No, we must go to another hospital." His tone was domineering.
"I don’t want to inconvenience others by seeking special treatment."
"You can have special treatment, as long as you want it."
"I’m just a girl from the countryside. What right do I have to seek special treatment?" Tian Xingyun laughed softly; she wasn’t truly the Huo Family’s Young Madam.
She was clear about her own status and wouldn’t seek any special favors.
"I say you can, so you can," Huo Shaohua said coldly. Despite being satisfied with her words, he felt annoyed.
She had clearly defined the boundaries of their relationship, making it seem like there wasn’t any connection between them.
"Are you here for a check-up too?" A pregnant woman approached and greeted Tian Xingyun.
"Yes, what a coincidence," Tian Xingyun smiled back at her; she was another pregnant woman they’d met during a previous check-up.
"Where’s your husband? Is this your brother?" The woman looked seriously at Huo Shaohua, examining him.
"..." Tian Xingyun didn’t know how to respond and instinctively looked at Huo Shaohua.
Should she admit it or deny it?
When Hu Yuxi came with her, people thought he was her husband.
She didn’t want others to pity her for not having her husband accompany her.
She didn’t deny or admit it at the time, letting it slide as a tacit agreement.
Seeing every other woman accompanied by their husbands while she was alone wasn’t a great feeling.
When others asked if Hu Yuxi was her husband.
She merely smiled, leaving the decision to Hu Yuxi.
Surprisingly, he didn’t deny it either—perhaps out of pity for her.
Huo Shaohua’s face darkened, looking at the woman beside him.
Saying Hu Yuxi was her husband? Are you kidding?
Today’s situation had seemed odd, and now he understood why...
The anger inside him grew even more.
"Why isn’t he with you today?" The woman continued to ask, ignoring Huo Shaohua’s presence.
"He’s busy with work today, so he didn’t come," Tian Xingyun explained with a faint smile, once again tacitly agreeing Hu Yuxi was her husband.
Because Huo Shaohua forbade her from mentioning their relationship outside.
"Oh, having your brother accompany you is fine too."
"Honey, I bought it! Come here and eat!" A skinny man called out to her, holding a box.
"Coming!" The woman smiled back at the man, then turned to Tian Xingyun and said, "I’ll head over first."
"Go ahead." Tian Xingyun smiled, feeling a pang of sadness watching how good her husband was to her.
Then looking at the man beside her... it only deepened her sorrow.
After the woman left, the atmosphere immediately became heavy and oppressive.
Huo Shaohua felt suffocated, this damn woman.
She had just tacitly agreed that Hu Yuxi was her husband and called him her brother right in his face!
She really had some nerve, turning her husband into a brother.
Just as he was about to confront her, his phone rang, and the caller was Song Yi.
