nIt was silent throughout the whole journey.

nWhen they reached the hospital, Jing Chen followed them without a word.

nAfter the doctor’s examination, she had already understood Su Wan’s condition. After dutifully explaining the situation, the things to take note of, and the cost, she instructed, “I’ll prescribe you some medicine for consumption. It’ll heal faster this way, okay?”

nSu Wan hesitated for a moment before nodding.

nSu Wan took the bill and walked out. After a while, she turned to look at Jing Chen and stood still.

nJing Chen understood and took the form from her. “Wait for me here. I’ll pay the fees.”

nSu Wan gripped the form tightly. “I left my phone with the doctor. Wait for me.”

nShe returned to the consultation room.

nThe doctor had just closed the drawer when she saw Su Wan and opened it immediately. He heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Don’t forget such a valuable item next time.”

nSu Wan received it and thanked him repeatedly.

nHowever, she did not leave. Instead, she sat down and quickly said, “Doctor, I’m pregnant. Will there be any problems if I consume medicine?”

nThe doctor was stunned. When he had asked Su Wan if she was pregnant and if she had taken any other medicine earlier on, she denied it.

nBut when she saw that Su Wan came back alone, she immediately understood. “I’ll change it to one that is used externally.”

n“Thank you, thank you, doctor,” Su Wan said gratefully.

nThe doctor shook her head, expressing that she understood and changed the prescription on the computer.

nWhen they received the medicine, Jing Chen was stunned. It was such a big box!

nWhen he took a closer look, he realized that it was actually a medicine for external use.

nHis brows instantly furrowed. “This doctor is too unreliable. She said that she would prescribe you medicine for consumption, but in the end, it’s one that’s applied externally.”

nFrom the looks of it, he was going to confront the doctor!

nSu Wan quickly confessed, “I got the doctor to change it to a medicine that’s applied externally. I don’t want to eat it. It’s too bitter.”

nJing Chen didn’t agree with her explanation. “You didn’t even flinch once when you were taking medicine in the past. Wasn’t I the one who was always afraid of taking medicine?”

nMemories of the past surfaced in her mind.

nThe only medicine that was acceptable to Jing Chen was capsules because it was not bitter at all. Secondly, it had a sugar coating. He would not touch tablets no matter what.

nShe coaxed him for two whole days before he finally relented.

nNow that her lie had been exposed, Su Wan bit her lower lip and gripped the medicine tightly. She said firmly, “I just want to use one that’s applied externally.”

n“Why? What are you thinking?”

nJing Chen sized her up.

nSu Wan looked at Jing Chen pitifully, the pleading in her eyes was clear.

nShe was afraid that if Jing Cheng went back he would find out that she was pregnant…

nThe consequences would be unimaginable!

nSu Wan had to stop him no matter what!

nJing Chen stood at the same spot and thought for a while. He looked at her as if he wanted to say something but stopped himself. Especially when he saw how pitiful she looked, his heart softened and he suddenly thought of a reason.

n“You’re going to use it as an excuse to ask me for help when you’re applying the medicine, aren’t you?”

nSu Wan stared at him in astonishment, her round eyes rolling around. This was a good reason!

nBut it was too shameful?

nBut she could not think of any other reason. Her mind froze. She could not think of anything except to stop Jing Chen from going to the doctor.

nShe might as well just use what he had given her.

nThe more she thought about it, the redder her face became. She suddenly moved closer to Jing Chen and deliberately lowered her voice. “How can you say such things in public? There are so many people in the hospital…”

nHe had correctly guessed it?!

nA trace of shock flashed in his eyes.

nEver since he mentioned divorce, Su Wan had never spoken to him in such a coquettish tone.

nNot to mention such a soft voice.

nJing Chen clenched his right hand into a fist and tried to suppress his anger. He warned her in a low voice, “Don’t talk to me like that in public from now on.”

nAfter pausing for a moment, he added worriedly, “And you’re not allowed to talk to other men like that! Understand?”

nSu Wan didn’t understand and asked blankly, “When did I have another man?”

nYou’re the one with other women!

nJing Chen raised his eyebrows. “Just remember it. Otherwise, you’ll be at a disadvantage.”

nDisadvantage?

n“What sort of disadvantage?” Su Wan blinked, she could not understand the situation.

nBut this suddenly became unimportant.

nShe suddenly became excited. “You’re unable to tolerate me having contact with other men?”

nWas it the thought of her speaking gently to other men,

nThat would make him jealous?

nJing Chen said with great confidence, “Of course.”

nSu Wan was overjoyed until Jing Chen added, “You’re still my wife now. Even if you find another man, you’ll have to wait until we’re divorced to do that. Do you understand?”

n“…”
