Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Ji Zixuan and Huang Weiwei had been dating for nearly two years. During these two years, their relationship had been very stable.
Last year, Li Xu had also saved up money to buy a house for Ji Zixuan.
Moreover, although the two of them continued to study as graduate students,
they were not young anymore.
Li Xu thought about it and arranged for both parents to meet to discuss the engagement.
It would be best if they got engaged this year and got married next year.
After getting married, if the two of them were willing to have a child. She and Zhang Kun can take care of them since they were still young.
It was more than enough to wait for one or two years.
If the two of them were unwilling to have children, then she and Zhang Kun would be free for another two years.
Li Xu thought about the matter and lay on the bed, happily fantasizing about the future.
“It’s great if they’re willing to give birth to a child. They’ll get married next year, and the child will be born the year after. We’re not even fifty yet, and we already have grandchildren.”
As she spoke, Li Xu said regretfully, “You’re still young in your forties. Some people can still give birth in their forties!”
She subconsciously touched her belly.
Ever since her daughter went to university, she had also thought of giving
birth to Zhang Kun’s child.
Although Zhang Kun was not very willing to do it, he refused to do it no matter what.
However, Li Xu also played many tricks behind his back.
She heard that vasectomy surgery wasn’t a hundred percent secure. Some people still got pregnant after vasectomy.
However, it was obvious that she was not as lucky as the others.
As time pa.s.sed, she gradually stopped thinking about this matter.
In the past, the children were still young, so it was fine for her to give birth to another one.
But now Zixuan was almost twenty-four. If she gave birth to another one, it would be a joke.
Although she had given up, she still felt a little uncomfortable every time she thought about it.
She was immersed in her own emotions and did not notice Zhang Kun’s ugly expression.
Until Zhang Kun got up and slowly moved to the living room.
Only then did Li Xu notice that Zhang Kun’s face was somewhat pale, “What’s wrong?”
Zhang Kun held onto the wall and slowly walked out, “Maybe I ate too much at night, so my stomach is a little bloated. I’ll go out and find a digestive tablet to eat.”
When Li Xu heard this, she quickly got off the bed, “Lie down. I’ll go and find it
for you.”
Zhang Kun stood at the door, panting, but he did not refute.
Not only was he bloated, but his legs were also hurting.
Therefore, he obediently returned to bed.
While Li Xu went out to look for the medicine, he lifted the pants of his pajamas.
He had probably been a little tired recently. He had walked too much and his calves were a little swollen.
“What happened to your leg?” Li Xu came back very quickly. Zhang Kun didn’t have time to put on his pants, so she saw him.
Zhang Kun quickly rolled up his pants, “It’s nothing. 1 walked a lot and it hurts
a little. I’ll ma.s.sage it myself.”
Li Xu took the medicine and placed it in Zhang Kun’s hand. Then, she handed the cup to him, “Drink it first. I’ll give you a ma.s.sage.”
Zhang Kun raised his head and swallowed the digestive tablet.
He placed the cup on the bedside table and said, “No need. I’ll be fine after a night’s rest.”
However, Li Xu gives him no chance to speak. She pressed down on his leg and lifted his pants, “I’ll apply some essential oil on you before ma.s.saging you. It’ll make you feel better.”
Just as she was about to get the essential oil, she was surprised to find that Zhang Kun’s leg was a little swollen.
“What happened to your leg? Is it swollen?” She stretched out her fingers and ma.s.sage it.
Zhang Kun sighed in a low voice, “I should have stood too much in the shop these few days. It’s fine.”
Li Xu said in a low voice, “Then you can rest at home from tomorrow onwards. You don’t have to go to the shop for now. Have a good rest for two days.”
“It’s fine. At most, I’ll just go to the shop and sit.” Zhang Kun said.
Li Xu thought about it and still felt a little worried, “No, I won’t go out tomorrow. I’ll take you to the hospital. Why do I feel something is wrong with your current state? Is there something wrong with your body?” “What problem could there be?” Zhang Kun laughed. “It’s just that I’ve been too tired recently. You’re always worrying for nothing.”
“No, we still have to go and take a look. I can only be at ease after seeing the doctor.” Li Xu’s tone was firm.
Knowing that Li Xu would not let go of her decision, Zhang Kun could only compromise, “Then let’s wait until we meet Weiwei’s parents. Her family is a scholarly family, and several generations of her family have studied mathematics. We have to prepare well and not lose face for Zixuan.”
Hearing this, Li Xu hesitated for a moment before nodding, “Alright, let’s wait until we meet the in-laws.”
Although Li Xu and Zhang Kun weren’t very educated, they both admired people who were educated.
Although their family could barely be considered rich now, they felt that they were too far from Huang Weiwei’s family.
However, Huang Weiwei’s family was also very satisfied with Ji Zixuan.
After all, he had a relationship with Professor Geng, and Ji Zixuan’s performance in school was obvious.
The two families quickly set a time and place to meet.
Other than the hasty meeting at the airport at the beginning of last year, this was the first time the two families met.
Li Xu and Zhang Kun had prepared quite a few gifts for their first meeting.
They were very sincere.
Both parties were very satisfied with each other, so when they met, the atmosphere was very harmonious.
“in that case, let’s go find someone to calculate the date and pick an auspicious day for the two children to get married.” Li Xu said with a smile,
Mother Huang nodded, “Alright, you can choose the date. If you need our cooperation, just let us know.”
“No problem. I like Weiwei very much. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely treat her like my own daughter in the future.” Li Xu said.
Although it was just words, it was also Li Xu’s true words.
Seeing that Zhang Kun did not say anything, she turned her head, “Right, the child’s father?”
When he turned his head, he realized that something was wrong with Zhang Kun’s condition.
His face was pale, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead. His right hand was covering his abdomen.
“What’s wrong with you?” Li Xu was shocked and asked in a low voice.
With Li Xu’s reminder, Ji Yuanyuan also noticed something was wrong with Zhang Kun.
She immediately stepped forward and stood in front of Zhang Kun. She reached out and touched his forehead.
“Dad, what’s wrong?”
Zhang Kun shook his head, “Maybe I ate something bad. I’ll go out for a while. You guys continue chatting.”
He was sweating profusely. Clearly, it was not as simple as having a stomach ache.
“Where does it hurt?” Ji Yuanyuan asked again seriously.
Zhang Kun frowned and pointed at his upper right abdomen.
Ji Yuanyuan’s expression turned cold as she immediately looked at Ji Zixuan, “Big Brother, go get the car. We’re going to the hospital now.”
Seeing this, Zhang Kun quickly held Ji Yuanyuan’s hand, “I’m fine. Don’t cause trouble. Go and sit down.”
Today was the first meeting between the two families. He did not want to ruin this meeting because of him.
“In-law, we’ll have plenty of time to talk when the two children are engaged, said Father Huang hurriedly. “Since he was not feeling well, he should hurry to the hospital to have a look so the children would not worry.”
“Nothing is more important than your health,” Mama Huang advised. “Let’s just listen to the child. Everyone will be at ease..”
