Chapter 286 I Said What If
Qian Duoduo helped Wang Jingmo lie down; she planned to go find Doctor Wang right away.
However, as soon as she stood up, Wang Jingmo grabbed her wrist.
"Stay with me."
Although Wang Jingmo was thinking about Duo Duo's disapproval of him having a child, he still didn't forget the task Shen Zicen had left him.
Qian Duoduo had no choice but to sit down again.
This is the second time today that Wang Jingmo has asked me to stay with him.
She was worried that Wang Jingmo might be unhappy, so she simply lay down next to him and pulled him into her arms.
Wang Jingmo stared at Qian Duoduo in shock. He hadn't expected Qian Duoduo to lift the covers and lie down inside.
Qian Duoduo patted his head, "Good boy~ go to sleep for a while."
She gently patted Wang Jingmo's back until she heard his steady breathing.
Qian Duoduo looked down and saw that Wang Jingmo was already asleep. Worried that she might wake him if she moved around, she lay down with him for another 15 minutes.
She tenderly stroked Wang Jingmo's thin cheek, and could clearly feel the bones.
She quietly got up and tiptoed away, turning back every step of the way to check if Wang Jingmo had woken up.
……
"Mom, do you have any scar removal ointment here?"
After seeing off the last patient, Dr. Wang looked up and glanced at Shen Zicen.
"Did Duoduo bully you? I'm going to find her."
Dr. Wang subconsciously assumed that Qian Duoduo had injured him, so he needed scar removal cream.
She knew that Qian Duoduo had slept at the security escort agency last night because Qian Duoduo had accompanied Shen Zicen to her place today.
Over the years, she has taken care of these children regularly, and all things considered, she is much closer to them than to Qian Duoduo.
Therefore, she naturally felt that she should stand on their side.
Shen Zicen quickly pulled Doctor Wang aside, "Mother, no."
Doctor Wang looked at Shen Zicen with a probing gaze, and only felt relieved after he nodded.
He took Shen Zicen to the pharmacy and casually asked, "How deep is the scar?"
Shen Zicen shook her head, but noticing that Doctor Wang was busy searching for ointment and hadn't noticed her, she replied, "I don't know."
He genuinely didn't know, and he hadn't looked at it carefully at the time, so he just hastily wrapped it up.
Doctor Wang frowned slightly. "Don't know? Who's injured? Could it be Niannian?"
As soon as Dr. Wang realized that Niannian might be injured, he immediately asked her more questions.
"Where is Niannian hurt? Is it serious? Should I go and take a look at Niannian?"
Before Doctor Wang could finish speaking, Shen Zicen interrupted him.
"It's not Niannian, it's me."
When she said this, Shen Zicen didn't dare to look up at Doctor Wang.
Dr. Wang's heart, which had just been at ease, was now on edge again.
"Where's the scar? Let me take a look."
Shen Zicen lowered his head, his pearly teeth biting his lip tightly beneath the veil. He didn't know whether to show it to Doctor Wang, fearing that Doctor Wang would worry.
Dr. Wang noticed his hesitation and assumed it was because of Qian Duoduo; he had been too wild last night and was embarrassed to let her see the injuries he had sustained.
"Doesn't Duoduo know how to take it easy? It's only the first day..."
Dr. Wang felt ashamed and didn't continue speaking.
Shen Zicen blushed as well.
Dr. Wang had no choice but to change the subject and ask directly, "How long is the scar?"
Shen Zicen stretched out his finger to indicate the length, and Doctor Wang observed that it was about two finger joints long.
She was thinking of giving Qian Duoduo a good scolding when she saw him, but Shen Zicen's next words made Doctor Wang guess the truth.
"It's been almost a year, is it still possible to remove it?"
Shen Zicen asked cautiously, secretly raising his eyes to observe Doctor Wang's expression.
More than a year? That's not...
Doctor Wang pulled Shen Zicen aside and asked him solemnly, "Is it the scar on your face?"
When Dr. Wang saw Shen Zicen's pupils dilate unconsciously in shock, he knew he had guessed correctly.
Doctor Wang sighed slightly. He wondered what kind of good fortune Qian Duoduo had that made one or two of them so devoted.
"Take it off so I can see it."
Shen Zicen no longer hid it from Doctor Wang, and slowly removed her veil.
When Dr. Wang's gaze fell upon the scar, his eyes were filled with heartache.
That must have hurt so much!
She gently pressed the scar; it had already hardened somewhat.
"I can only try to make it less intense, and try to restore it to its original state..."
A hint of disappointment flashed in Shen Zicen's eyes. He understood the rest of what was said, after all, so much time had passed.
Doctor Wang pulled out his best-quality ointment, which he had saved for a critical moment, but he decided to leave it for Ah Cen for now.
"Ah Cen, you need to apply this ointment every day, and it will fade."
Shen Zicen nodded and gripped the ointment in her hand tightly.
Dr. Wang was thinking of going to give Qian Duoduo some instructions, but before she could go out, Shen Zicen stopped her.
"Mother, don't tell Duoduo."
Shen Zicen's voice was low and hoarse. Doctor Wang looked at Shen Zicen's pleading face and could only nod.
She's really worried sick. Jingmo's health isn't good, and she's pregnant. A-Cen's scar on his face will probably stay with him forever...
Shen Zicen saw Doctor Wang nod before letting go of her sleeve.
Just then, Qian Duoduo pushed open the pharmacy door. "Dr. Wang?"
His voice was quite loud, and it still echoed in the pharmacy.
Qian Duoduo couldn't find Dr. Wang at the clinic, so she went directly to the pharmacy.
Shen Zicen hurriedly tucked the ointment into his sleeve, while Doctor Wang stood in front of Shen Zicen, blocking Qian Duoduo's view.
When Dr. Wang saw Qian Duoduo, he yelled at her, "What are you yelling for?"
She's not in a good mood either, seeing that everyone is keeping things from Qian Duoduo, while she seems to be living a carefree life.
Just as Doctor Wang was about to step forward, he felt his clothes being tugged from behind.
Dr. Wang sighed helplessly. She quietly patted Shen Zicen on the shoulder to reassure him.
Qian Duoduo then noticed Shen Zicen behind Doctor Wang. "A-Cen? Weren't you with Yunzhi? What happened..."
Before Qian Duoduo could finish speaking, Doctor Wang spoke up.
“I asked Ah Cen to bring some medicinal herbs for Yunzhi to identify.”
With that, he pushed Shen Zicen out.
"Hey~"
Qian Duoduo was about to call out to Shen Zicen when Doctor Wang stopped her.
"Tell me, what do you want from me?"
She should try to buy Shen Zicen some more time.
Qian Duoduo glanced at the door, noticed that no one else was there, and then closed the door again.
Dr. Wang found it both amusing and infuriating. "What's there to be ashamed of?"
Qian Duoduo beckoned to Doctor Wang, and although Doctor Wang didn't really want to talk to her, he still went over.
"Oh dear, Mother, how has Jingmo been feeling lately?"
Qian Duoduo usually calls "Doctor Wang" when there's nothing wrong, but calls "Mom" when there is something wrong.
Doctor Wang didn't expect that the question was about Wang Jingmo. She thought that Qian Duoduo saw Shen Zicen go out and was asking about him.
"He's been having trouble sleeping lately, and he's also lost his appetite."
Dr. Wang certainly couldn't tell him he was pregnant; he could only describe his symptoms.
Qian Duoduo frowned and pondered for a moment.
"What if—and I mean, what if—he were pregnant right now?"
Qian Duoduo kept emphasizing "if," and after saying that, she was afraid that Doctor Wang would slap her across the face.
Dr. Wang was somewhat shocked and momentarily stunned, but he quickly masked his reaction.
She began to busy herself with sorting the medicinal herbs, even though they had already been sorted long ago.
"Why do you ask?"
