Chapter 464 - The Child was Sick Part 3 (2/2)
”Go ahead.” Gao Yi told the nurse. ”If you don't do it soon, she's going to cry.”
As a result, Rainy merely stared at the nurse with big round eyes filled with a pair of black pupils. True enough, she didn't cry. The nurse took a syringe. After hesitating for ages, she finally decided to pierce the needle into the child's thin vein without a care for consequences.
In that split-second of pain, Rainy's tiny mouth pouted. However, she really didn't cry.
Gao Yi gripped her hand tightly. She sat on his lap while they waited for the results.
Then, a man came over and stood at a distance.
”Ah Lui…” A woman called out for him. Gao Yi felt uncomfortable instinctively. He looked down and met Rainy's wide eyes. She bit on her finger and broke out into a smile.
”Mom, are you okay?” Chu Lui held the woman's elbow and sat down with her.
”They just drew a bit of blood. It was nothing, but your father turned his face away when they were taking his blood. At his advanced age, I didn't think he would be that timid.”
Meanwhile, Chu Jiang standing at one side was rolling up his sleeve leisurely to let the nurse draw his blood. However, he had not blinked his eyes. Not even once. He really wasn't that timid after all. He just couldn't bear to see his wife bleed. As for himself, he couldn't care less.
It was time for their annual routine check-up. Usually, they would arrange for it to be done in a private hospital. However, Song Wan felt more at ease doing it here at a public hospital. It might be crowded, but a private hospital that offered better service didn't give her a friendly environment. She preferred to come here where there was more human flow.
Chu Jiang completed his blood test and came over.
”Doctor Gao, your daughter's results are out.” Coincidentally, the nurse called out for Gao Yi.
He carried Rainy, stood up, and proceeded to walk to the window to collect the results. Since the start, he was well aware that the other man had been watching his every move.
Gao Yi took the report and looked at it briefly. Hmm, it was satisfactory and normal. There was nothing wrong with Rainy so she could be discharged anytime.
”Come, let's go home.” He carried Rainy as he turned around to leave. From behind him, the other man's eyes were following him. They never wavered, left his back, or blinked.
Obviously, Gao Yi knew, and so did the man.
”Ah Lui, what are you looking at?” Song Wan followed her son's line of vision. Somehow, she felt as though her son had just seen his nemesis.
”It's nothing. I just saw someone familiar.” Gao Yi simply smiled as he rolled up his sleeve habitually. However, his expression was not friendly like he had just seen a friend.
So, it's a friend. Not an enemy. Song Wan finally set her heart at ease. She was thinking of how it could be such a coincidence to have met an enemy when they were in a hospital.
Song Wan's eyes were green with envy when she saw other people with kids. It was a pity that they would never get to have a grandchild in their lives. She was resigned to her fate, but at the same time, she was also reluctant to admit it.
Soon, the results for their check-up were out. Both she and Chu Jiang were relatively healthy. At their age, they needed to reduce their oil and salt intake. Their lifestyle should consist of more plain food and exercise. On top of that, keeping themselves happy was the best supplement in their daily lives.
For Mr. and Mrs. Chu, having a grandchild would be the best remedy for everything.
