Chapter 52: Chapter 20 Prenatal Check-up (Part 2)

In their eyes, Du Xixi was undoubtedly a very beautiful woman. Her long hair slightly twisted up, her attire matching the color of Ke Lian’s, set off her snow-white skin and delicate features, but most astonishing of all were her watery bright eyes.

Peach blossom eyes are said to be the eyes of intense emotion, even just quietly looking at you can make you feel a strong, unspoken love, truly a captivating eye shape.

Du Xixi possessed a naturally gentle pair of amber peach blossom eyes, with a perpetual blush at the corners that made her look fragile and pitiful, eliciting compassion.

Moreover, Du Xixi had a kind and cheerful nature, so the corners of her peach blossom eyes often crinkled into a smile, appearing as though pale pink peach blossom petals from a spring day had fallen upon the corners of her eyes, making her eyes bloom beautifully.

Most of the people present were from the Military Department, while the rest were family members of those in the Military Department, so more or less they could guess Du Xixi’s identity.

Ke Lian’s marriage, where the bride was his fiancée from childhood, naturally aroused the Military Department’s curiosity about Du Xixi, especially since recently, Ke Lian, once known as a "workaholic," frequently returned home claiming to accompany his wife, further piquing everyone’s curiosity about Du Xixi.

Just now seeing Ke Lian get off the hovercar, the group of fanboys and fangirls initially thought Ke Lian might have some physical condition, and were surprised and worried, but the next moment they saw Du Xixi also disembark, appearing evidently frail, and everyone realized the main figure visiting the military hospital today was Du Xixi.

Whispers immediately started, and people began murmuring in groups of twos and threes. This made Du Xixi a bit nervous, and she unconsciously tightened the hand held by Ke Lian.

Ke Lian gently squeezed back in reassurance, maintaining his cool and aloof image in public, while his fingers lightly caressed the back of Du Xixi’s hand, offering silent comfort.

Du Xixi’s face flushed slightly, yet everyone assumed she was just unaccustomed to such a crowded environment and didn’t suspect that Ke Lian was "flirting" with her.

Mo Feng and the others also got out of the car, escorting Ke Lian and Du Xixi with mutual smiles as they walked towards the military hospital, carefully watching the surrounding crowd to prevent anyone from rushing over to harm Ke Lian and Du Xixi.

They were not worried about Ke Lian’s skills, but Du Xixi was pregnant and frail, so being cautious was normal.

Due to their special status, not long after Ke Lian and the others entered the military hospital, the director personally came to greet them, accompanying them to the obstetrics and gynecology department, and into the chief’s office.

Of course, Ke Lian and Du Xixi had pre-registered, so they had no intention of using their status to take any shortcuts.

It had only been about a month since the two last met, yet the chief still had a deep impression of Du Xixi, not only because of her special status but also her extremely fragile condition, nearly unable to sustain the pregnancy before.

At this moment, the chief looked at the couple before him, silently sighed to himself, and prayed to heaven for a bit of mercy, hoping the Marshal’s Wife could be healthier, allowing this young couple to have a child of their love.

Half an hour later, the test results astonished the chief, but after the shock came a burst of joy.

Du Xixi’s condition wasn’t perfect, but compared to her last visit, she had improved by almost 90%. The embryo had securely implanted, and with proper care in the future, there should be no major problems.

The chief sincerely rejoiced for Ke Lian and Du Xixi, smiling as he conveyed the results to the couple, and sure enough, both Ke Lian and Du Xixi smiled as well.

Du Xixi, her brows full of smiles, was embraced at the waist by Ke Lian, gently patting her belly and softly saying, "This is the best news I could receive."

Ke Lian also smiled, relaxing his grip and putting down the heavy stone of worry in his heart. He revealed a gentle side, nodding slightly at the chief, "Thank you for your trouble."

The chief hastily waved it off, insisting she was just fulfilling her duties, doing the necessary examinations and giving the needed advice, without feeling troubled at all.

However, she observed the gentle and caring manner Ke Lian had towards his beloved wife and couldn’t help but sigh internally. People often said how emotionless the Imperial Marshal was, but it seemed all his tenderness was reserved for his wife alone.

With that thought, the chief lowered her head with a smile, prescribing medication for Du Xixi, feeling both happy and a touch envious of her good fortune.
