"Why?" Li Hui asked.
"Xiaoran is not in good health or spirits right now," Di Mingchen replied, "I’m afraid she’ll resist if we suggest a check-up now, and I’m also worried she’ll get anxious. What if—I’m just saying what if—what if this turns out to be true, wouldn’t it be another blow to her?"
What Di Mingchen said made sense to Li Hui.
This matter is cruel enough as it is, and taking Nangong Ran for another check-up now would be tough. If it turns out the last check-up was mistaken, that would be great, but what if it’s true?
It would be like tearing open a wound that had just begun to heal, causing her comforted and settled heart to suffer another blow.
Li Hui nodded. After all, Di Mingchen, as a man, had thought things through more thoroughly.
"I agree with Second Young Master’s opinion," Nangong Jin said, "Even if Xiaoran has a health issue, it doesn’t affect anything. Why go for another check-up? If a check-up is necessary, I think it should wait until after the wedding."
"Yes, that’s what I think too." Di Mingchen nodded.
"Alright then." Li Hui also nodded, "Let’s proceed according to your plan."
"Okay." Di Mingchen smiled faintly, "Don’t worry, Aunt Hui, I’ll take care of the wedding arrangents promptly."
"Good!" Li Hui was suddenly moved to tears, truly, this child Di Mingchen was remarkable.
Di Mingchen let the others go first, staying behind to take care of Nangong Ran.
On the way ho, Gu Qibao thought that Di Mingchen was worrying too much. Maybe she could secretly persuade Nangong Ran to go for another check-up without letting Di Mingchen know.
After all, she really didn’t believe that Nangong Ran truly had so sort of uterine abnormality.
...
In the afternoon, Nangong Ran returned to the apartnt from the hospital, with Di Mingchen accompanying and caring for her the entire ti, pushing aside many of his own matters for her sake.
The whole way back, neither of them brought up the health issue again. Di Mingchen’s idea was simple: to wait a few days until Nangong Ran felt better before discussing it.
After returning ho, the house was spotless. Although it was just the two of them, it felt very cozy.
Di Mingchen carried Nangong Ran into the bedroom, gently placed her on the bed, and then sat beside her, stroking her hair, asking, "Do you want to take a nap?"
Nangong Ran smiled, "I’ve slept for a long ti, and I can’t sleep anymore."
"Then I’ll watch so TV with you?" Di Mingchen suggested.
"Okay." Nangong Ran nodded.
"I’ll go cut so fruit." Di Mingchen handed the remote to Nangong Ran, "You can start watching."
Nangong Ran took the remote, and Di Mingchen turned to leave to prepare the fruit.
But as he reached the door, Nangong Ran called him back.
"What’s up?" Di Mingchen turned his head, glancing back as he approached her.
Nangong Ran blushed, a bit embarrassed, and said, "Um, that agreent, is it still there? Can I sign it now?"
Hearing this, Di Mingchen was montarily stunned, then instantly overjoyed.
He nodded quickly, "It’s here, it’s still here!"
Saying this, he went to the bedside table, opened a drawer, took out the marriage agreent, along with a pen and ink pad, and handed them to Nangong Ran.
Nangong Ran turned to the page where she needed to sign, couldn’t help but curl her lips into a smile, and lightly bit her lip as she looked up, "So I’m signing it now."
"Yes." Di Mingchen nodded vigorously, conveniently sitting on the edge of the bed, intently watching her hand holding the pen.
