Chapter 667: Chapter 666: I’m Not Suitable

Lu Zheng remained silent, guessing what Old Li meant.

But he had no desire to cooperate!

Because he did not want to deal with the actors from the troupe, and more importantly, Lin Xia was not home, and he did not want to provoke any romantic troubles.

Old Li had no choice but to speak frankly, "Before you came back, I had thought of Guo Dawei and Wang Chang, those two guys.

But I think the best candidate in our department is none other than you!

You’re married, and you have a good relationship with your wife, so you definitely won’t have unnecessary thoughts just because someone is beautiful. Now that you’re back, why don’t you take care of them? What do you think?"

To face the glamorous actresses and remain unmoved.

If it were someone else, he really wouldn’t be quite at ease.

Only Lu Zheng, this guy cares so much about his wife, and his elder brother has seen it all.

Therefore, he won’t be moved by any other women, no matter how beautiful they are, whether fat or slim...

So, he really hoped Lu Zheng would take on this task.

Lu Zheng decisively rejected, "I’m not suitable! Let others lead them!" and immediately explained the reason, "You also know my wife is not at home. Starting a bad misunderstanding... it would affect both me personally and our department..."

He had a strange intuition, as soon as he heard about it, he felt this so-called ’life experience’ was a bit odd!

Therefore, he would not take on such a task no matter what.

Old Li also knew about the past between Lu Zheng and Ye Lin from the troupe. He pondered for a moment, "That’s true! Well, better less trouble than too much trouble! I’ll arrange for someone else to handle it!"

He himself was not as enthusiastic about this task as people from other departments were.

Who would have thought, the head had specifically assigned it to their department, so he too had to reluctantly make do and push forward!

But if, due to the people from the troupe coming to their department, any oversight occurred, causing personal trouble or tarnishing reputations, such matters he absolutely could not commit to!

The two then began to discuss and deliberate on who in the department would be most suitable...

When Lu Zheng was returning the car, he made a safe-arrival call to the hospital.

Knowing that he had arrived safely, Lin Xia along with Shao Meirou truly felt relieved.

Otherwise, in this freezing snowy weather, him driving back alone, everyone would be concerned for him.

They were very worried that his car might break down halfway or that he might encounter some mishap.

After dinner, Lu Pengcheng stayed in the hospital room to accompany the patient, while Shao Meirou and Lin Xia went home to rest.

The relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was harmonious, and Shao Meirou was actually very satisfied, but she was genuinely anxious about not having grandchildren yet.

Speaking of which, Lin Xia and her son had been married for almost a year now.

The two kids had only really been together every day since last month.

But even when they were together before, it wasn’t just once or twice, and there had still been no signs, which truly left her feeling unsettled.

Especially, her own father’s sudden hospitalization made her acutely aware of the urgency of having children.

Now that Lin Xia was staying here for a while, an idea unavoidably surfaced in her mind.

"Lin Xia! Your complexion doesn’t look very good! How about we visit your Grandpa Liao tomorrow morning? Maybe it’s anemia or something!"

Lin Xia was slightly stunned, she hadn’t expected Shao Meirou to bring up visiting Grandpa Liao for treatment.

In fact, she could guess—it wasn’t to check for anemia, but clearly to find out why they haven’t gotten pregnant after so long.

However, she couldn’t bring herself to say no.

Lin Xia immediately adjusted her expression to appear more natural, "Sure! Mom! Let Grandpa Liao check my pulse to see where my body needs some tuning up!"

Traditional Chinese medicine in China is quite miraculous, but to find a doctor who is not only skilled in medicine but also possesses good medical ethics, one must be very lucky.

As for Grandpa Liao, Lin Xia was very convinced by him.

Back in the day, the first people related to Lu Zheng she met were Shao Meifang and Grandpa Liao.

Grandpa Liao had a hand in the health conditioning after Lu Zheng’s grandfather’s surgery and Fang Youlan’s recovery as well.

If he could identify some issues, then she and Lu Zheng could potentially avoid some detours in trying to have children.

But at the same time, she was also filled with trepidation, afraid that some physical issue of hers was the reason they hadn’t had children so far.

If that were the case, what kind of reaction would her mother-in-law have knowing about it on the spot?

Upon seeing Lin Xia agree so readily, Shao Meirou’s smile deepened, "Good! Then don’t eat breakfast tomorrow morning! After we see him, we’ll find a place to eat!"

"Okay!" Lin Xia smiled. "Then, Mom, you should also rest early!"

Once they returned to their room, Lin Xia sat on the edge of the bed.

She felt both anticipation and fear about seeing the doctor and having her pulse taken the next day.

Unfortunately, with Lu Zheng not by her side, she definitely missed the secure and safe feeling he gave her, the strength he provided.

Because he was not there, Lin Xia felt the whole room seemed emptier, even the temperature indoors seemed a few degrees lower.

Perhaps he was feeling the same way.

Lin Xia sat in a daze for a while before crawling into bed to sleep.

The next morning, Lin Xia and Shao Meirou headed to Old Liao’s place.

Old Liao first inquired about Shao Chengzhi’s health condition, and knowing that there were no major issues, his expression relaxed.

After chatting amicably for a few moments, Shao Meirou spoke softly, "Uncle Liao! We came today because we’d like you to check Lin Xia, her complexion doesn’t look very good! Could it be anemia?"

If Lin Xia were her daughter, she would speak her mind completely, but since she is her daughter-in-law, even though their relationship is harmonious now, she still felt uncomfortable being too blunt.

Old Liao smiled kindly, "Okay! Let me have a look!"

Old Shao’s grandson and granddaughter-in-law had been married for almost a year without having children, hence their visit was self-evident.

Lin Xia, a bit nervously, stretched her arm onto the pulse pillow on the table, her heart pounding frightfully.

She didn’t know what the diagnosis would reveal after Grandpa Liao finished pulsing.

If it turned out to be a problem of hers, then...

Old Liao, sensing Lin Xia’s nervousness and after his observation and diagnosis, calmly stated, "This child has no significant issues; however, there’s some disharmony in the spleen and stomach and a bit of cold in the uterus. Just a proper adjustment is needed."

This made both Lin Xia and Shao Meirou breathe a huge sigh of relief in their hearts.

Before coming, both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had been anxious, not knowing what the diagnostic outcome would be.

Carrying the medicine that Old Liao had prescribed, Lin Xia and Shao Meirou left the place.

Lin Xia felt that they had arrived full of nervousness, but left completely relieved.

Knowing now that she herself had no significant issues, the anxiety that had been weighing on her also dissipated.

It was a good opportunity to properly adjust her body during this period, and once back, she and Lu Zheng would give it another earnest try. Perhaps, the child would then arrive...
