"What are you looking at?" Gu Nian asked curiously, eager to see.
But thinking of Chu Zhaoyang's attentive look, she suddenly felt weary.
"I'm checking when it's appropriate to start prenatal education," Chu Zhaoyang said, "to raise a soft and cute daughter."
Gu Nian couldn't help but twitch her mouth, saying, "In the early stages, you should look for prenatal education that's suitable for both boys and girls. What if it's not a daughter? If a son turns out to be a bit effeminate, you'll have to raise him even if you cry."
Chu Zhaoyang: "..."
"Let's start with something suitable for both, and once we know the gender, we can focus more on specific nurturing," Chu Zhaoyang said seriously.
Gu Nian: "..."
She couldn't resist Chu Zhaoyang's determination.
At this rate, she figured Chu Zhaoyang wouldn't calm down even after she gave birth.
These days, all Gu Nian wanted to do was sleep.
As soon as she opened her eyes, her eyelids would droop again shortly after.
Now, with her eyes heavy, she yawned, saying, "I'm tired. Aren't you going to sleep?"
Sitting on the bed, Chu Zhaoyang threw away his phone and went to bed, pulling Gu Nian into his arms.
The next day, no one woke Gu Nian up, letting her sleep well.
They planned to go to the hospital together for a check-up when she was fully rested.
Because of the time difference and a recent trip, Gu Nian was indeed tired when she returned.
She didn't get up until almost half past ten.
Deciding not to rush, they had lunch together at the old house before heading to Chutian Hospital with everyone.
Due to the large group, they took three cars.
The elders in one car, Chu Zhaoyang, Gu Nian, and Little Millet Cake in another, and Gu Licheng and Mu Lanshu in the third.
Upon hearing that Gu Nian was pregnant again, Chu Tian was also happy to go with them, deciding to meet them at Chu Tian Hospital.
Today, Gu Licheng didn't go to the police station, so the police station needed Mo Jingsheng to help out.
Mo Jingsheng had originally wanted to accompany Chu Tian to the hospital, but he couldn't.
As a result, he was still feeling frustrated at the police station.
Chu Zhaoyang acted as the driver up front, with Gu Nian and Little Millet Cake in the back seat. Gu Nian tilted her head slightly and looked through the front windshield, seeing the car of the elders.
Turning her head, she saw Gu Licheng's car following closely behind.
Gu Nian couldn't help but laugh.
Chu Zhaoyang caught sight of it through the rearview mirror and couldn't help but smile slightly. "What's so funny?"
"I was just thinking, whose pregnant woman goes to the hospital for a check-up with both her family and her in-laws in tow? This lineup is quite grand," Gu Nian chuckled.
Looking at her smiling eyes, partly smug and partly teasing, Gu Nian was a sight that didn't annoy anyone.
Chu Zhaoyang found her adorable.
After all, his pregnant wife deserved such attention, and no one else could compare.
Chu Zhaoyang raised an eyebrow proudly, "My pregnant wife naturally deserves all this attention."
He felt proud of himself, with someone nearby adding to his pride.
He was really not afraid to spoil himself with a wild arrogance.
Chu Zhaoyang didn't hear Gu Nian's thoughts. If he did, he'd say, "I made her like that, and others would have to suffer."
Absolutely unreasonable.
As soon as they arrived at Chutian Hospital, they saw Chu Tian waiting at the emergency entrance.
Because everyone had missed Little Millet Cake's growth, attitudes toward Gu Nian's pregnancy were as serious as if it were her first.
When Chu Tian saw Gu Nian, her eyes shone, falling on Gu Nian's belly.
Gu Nian's belly shrank when she saw it.
Chu Tian chuckled twice. "Sorry, sorry, I forgot for a moment."
Gu Nian smiled helplessly and went with the others to the obstetrics and gynecology department.
Their big group drew attention all the way.
Those familiar with Chu Zhaoyang wondered if the careful husband would accompany his wife.
Those with elders wondered about the Chu family in the group.
Patients and hospital staff recognized Chu Tian, Gu Nian, and even remembered Mu Lanshu and Gu Licheng.
When they saw Chu family members and relatives accompanying them, they speculated about the elderly Chu and Chu Tian.
The hospital's director personally brought a group of doctors who usually took a long time to be seen for a private appointment.
"Old Mr Chu, Old Mrs Chu!" The director was excited to see the elderly personally.
Since he had taken office, he had never seen the elderly before.
The old man waved his hand in dissatisfaction. "Why make such a fuss?"
The director didn't know how to reply, and looked to the side for help.
Seeing the look, Shi Hongze couldn't help but come forward, smiling and calling out, "Old Mr Chu, Old Mrs Chu."
Shi Hongze's grandfather and the old man were very close, so he had seen him since he was young and had a close relationship with him.
The old man wasn't rude to him. He also didn't show the disdain he had for others.
"This director has never seen you two, so he's just taking extra care." Shi Hongze explained with a smile.
The old man understood, didn't make things difficult for the director, and said, "Today, my granddaughter-in-law came with me to the check-up, so you all should be busy on your way."
After the old man finished speaking, he felt that he was wrong and quickly said, "Leave the obstetrics and gynecology department here."
