After chatting for a while, just as Ji Nuan was about to leave his embrace, she heard the man’s indifferent, low voice from above her head: “What’s that?”

Ji Nuan lifted her head to follow Mo Jingshen’s gaze to the wastepaper basket by the sofa. The pink packaging for the pregnancy test was especially small. When she threw it away earlier, she had even taken care to push it inward and out of sight. Despite this, he still noticed it.

“For some time, my appetite wasn’t very good, and I kept feeling nauseous and dizzy. But right after that, my appetite suddenly grew immensely, and I started eating and sleeping very well. I passed by a pharmacy today and bought a pregnancy test to see if I was pregnant, but the test concluded that I wasn’t. It’s probably because I wasn’t fully acclimatized to T City’s environment.” Ji Nuan leaned against the man’s chest. “It seems like Grandfather’s dreams of having a great-grandchild will take a little while longer to come true.”

Mo Jingshen glanced at her expression and casually reached over to fish the packaging out. He lowered his head to scan the instructions and related information provided. After finishing, he directly picked Ji Nuan up from the sofa.

“What are you doing?” Ji Nuan was suddenly placed down, her feet landing firmly on the ground.

“Let’s go to the hospital for a checkup,” He said: “These sorts of tests only promise a fifty to ninety percent accuracy. Only a checkup at the hospital will be fully reliable.”

“There’s no need. I haven’t been sleeping excessively recently, and the nausea has faded as well. It shouldn’t be pregnancy. Not to mention, at such a time, only the emergency room is open. The gynecologists and obstetricians have all gone home. Even if we go, we won’t be able to receive a detailed checkup. Even the doctors in charge of blood tests have gone home.”

Ji Nuan could tell that Mo Jingshen had no intention of being even slightly careless with handling the possibility of pregnancy.

She smiled and stood on her tiptoes, holding the man’s handsome face to kiss him deeply with a smacking noise. “I promise I’ll pay careful attention to my body. The moment there are any signs of pregnancy, I’ll immediately and obediently head to the hospital.”

Mo Jingshen took another glance at the packaging, so Ji Nuan brought out the picture of the results she had taken earlier; a single red line across the paper.

Afterward, Mo Jingshen eyed the time and did not say more. However, he headed into the kitchen and began boiling some brown sugar water for her.

Ever since arriving in T City, without Auntie Chen’s urging, Ji Nuan did not continue with her habit of drinking warm beverages at night or taking brown sugar water for health.

Seeing Mo Jingshen is in the kitchen, Ji Nuan kept away the packaging and turned on the television to look for more channels to watch; she gave up on the horror film.

After flipping through several channels, her phone rang.

She glanced at her phone screen. The call came from Ji Corporation’s secretary manager; the very secretary that her father, Ji Hongwen, usually trusted and depended on the most. Ever since arriving in T City, Ji Nuan barely contacted her family. It was also a while since her father called her. Why would his secretary suddenly call her?

She answered the call: “Hello.”

After several seconds of silence, a familiar voice spoke from the other end of the call with a tone that was polite and respectful: “Miss Ji, hello. I’m Secretary Zhou.”

He then continued: “Director Ji has recently arranged to visit and sightsee T City with several old friends. As Miss Ji is in T City, I was told to arrange a suitable time for both of you to meet up. It’s been quite a while since Director Ji has seen you. May I know on which days will Miss Ji be free next week?”

“Since my Dad plans to visit T City, why didn’t he personally call me?” Ji Nuan replied unhurriedly. “I’ve never heard him mention any close friends from T City. Coming to sightsee this season? The land is surrounded by cold wind and dead leaves; what is there to see?”
