After Zhuang Nainai left the doctorâs office, someone walked out from behind the white curtains of the doctorâs examination room.
That person was wearing a bright red down coat. She looked elegant and graceful. If one hadnât witnessed her appearing from behind the curtains, they wouldnât have thought that such a person would be hiding furtively in there.
Ding Mengya poked out her head and observed her surroundings before smiling and looking at the doctor. âAre my two grandchildren healthy?â
This gynecologist was an old friend of Ding Mengyaâs. After he heard that, he lifted his head and laughed as he said, âIâve never seen a Grandma like you, coming secretly to the hospital just to see her grandchildren. Didnât you hear their heartbeat just now? Itâs very fast and healthy!â
Ding Mengya smiled and sat down opposite the doctor. âHm, I think youâre envious and jealous of me, so you hate me, right?â
After the doctor heard this, he lifted his head and looked at her. âWhy would I be jealous of you? Of someone who has a daughter-in-law whom she cannot meet and grandchildren whom she cannot see?â
Ding Mengya had learned to disregard the doctorâs sharp words. Instead, she smiled as she said, âI think youâre envious of me for having twin grandchildren! You have only one son, and heâs not as formidable as mine!â
The doctor was speechless.
After Ding Mengya said this, she leaned forward and said, âIâve heard the childrenâs heartbeats. Both of them are very strong. Hey, tell me, are they male or female?â
After the doctor heard this, he lifted his head, about to say something when he heard two knocks at the door. Before either of them could react, the door was pushed open. Zhuang Nainai stood there anxiously. âDoctor, Iâm looking for my phone...â
Before she could finish speaking, Zhuang Nainai saw Ding Mengya. Whatever she wanted to say was stuck in her throat!
What was she doing here?!
Zhuang Nainaiâs eyes were wide with shock. She stood there, speechless with shock.
Then she suddenly remembered how Si Jingyu had passionately persuaded her to go to the hospital for her prenatal check-ups; how the doctor had spoken very loudly earlier; and how he had amplified the sound of the childrenâs heartbeat through the machine. When she recalled what had happened, she saw how Si Jingyu had rushed over anxiously, and she suddenly understood, narrowing her eyes...
In the room, Ding Mengya remained seated. She couldnât leave now, and nor could she continue sitting like this.
Everyone was frozen in shock. Nobody knew what to say to break the awkward silence.
Time seemed to stop for a few seconds, then Ding Mengya whipped her head around and looked at the doctor. âIâm pretty old now, and its a ripe time for me to get womanly problems. Iâll put my faith in you, Doctor Liu, you have to help me get better.â
The doctor was speechless.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Si Jingyu stood at the entrance, and she couldnât bring herself to meet Madam Dingâs eyes!
Sheâd really resorted to anything she could think of to come up with a reason for being here.
After Ding Mengya said this, she stood up, pretending that she didnât recognize the two people by the door. She walked past them and left.
After Ding Mengyaâs departure, the three people in the room were still stuck in an awkward silence.
Finally, Doctor Liu stood up and passed Zhuang Nainaiâs phone back to her. âYoung woman, donât be so forgetful and so quick to anger. Iâll return your phone to you. Interpersonal relationships are highly dependent on communication and understanding. Sometimes, you shouldnât take things to heart when it comes to family.â
The doctorâs words caused Zhuang Nainai to lower her eyes.
