After leaving his father behind, the son of a prominent figure in Beijing's elite circles has g

"I'm unlucky, I have to bring my child here for a check-up by myself." Su Qingya said, looking down at the child in her arms, her eyes filled with maternal tenderness. "Baby, it's hard to get a taxi in the rain, you may have to wait here with Mommy for a while."

At this moment, Uncle Chen drove over, took an umbrella from the car, and got out to pick up the person.

Holding her child, Xu's mother got into the car first, with Uncle Chen holding an umbrella for her.

Lu Peichuan helped Rong Zheng into the car, then instructed Xu Ma, "Take good care of Madam and Miss on the way."

Xu Ma nodded hurriedly.

Rong Zheng looked at Lu Peichuan, who was standing outside the car, with a puzzled expression. "Aren't you coming with us?"

Lu Peichuan pointed to the parking lot ahead, "My car needs to be moved too. You guys go first, I'll be there shortly."

Rong Zheng nodded. "Then drive carefully."

"Okay." Lu Peichuan affectionately squeezed Rong Zheng's hand. "See you in a bit." Then he turned to Uncle Chen and instructed, "Drive carefully in the rain. Safety is the most important thing."

Uncle Chen: "Okay, Mr. Lu."

Uncle Chen gave Lu Peichuan an umbrella, then got into the car, started the engine, and drove towards the hospital entrance.

After the car had driven a short distance, Rong Zheng glanced back and saw Lu Peichuan walking towards the parking lot with an umbrella, while Su Qingya was still standing at the entrance of the inpatient department holding her child.

About an hour later, the car stopped in front of the Jiuai Confinement Center.

This is the postpartum care center that Rong Zheng and Lu Peichuan chose together. It has an excellent reputation in terms of maternal care, postpartum recovery, and newborn care.

Since it was pre-booked, Rong Zheng and her group were greeted immediately upon entering the lobby, and then the nanny in charge of her led them to their room.

It's a suite with three rooms and two bathrooms.

Rong Zheng stayed in a large room with a bathroom, the nanny and the baby stayed in the nursery, and there was also a guest room where Xu Ma stayed.

The nanny carried the baby to the nursery to settle in.

After helping Rong Zheng lie down, Xu Ma began tidying up the room.

Even after the room was tidied up, Lu Peichuan still hadn't come over.

Rong Zheng was a little worried, so she took out her phone to call Lu Peichuan, just as he called her.

"Zhengzheng, have you arrived at the postpartum care center yet?"

"We're here. Where are you?"

"There was a car accident ahead of me, and I'm stuck in traffic. I might be late."

Upon hearing the words "car accident," Rong Zheng felt a pang of panic. "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine, but we have to wait for the police to clear the accident scene before the road can open."

"I understand. Be careful."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Rong Zheng went for a physical examination with the postpartum nurse, who would tailor a postpartum recovery plan for her based on her physical condition.

After a series of checks, two hours had passed.

When Rong Zheng returned to her room, she saw Lu Peichuan coming out of the bathroom, dressed in pajamas, clearly having just taken a shower, and holding a dry towel to dry his wet hair.

The postpartum nurse saw this and, seeing that she had already escorted the person to the room door, tactfully left.

Rong Zheng asked in confusion, "Why are you taking a shower at this hour?"

"Your clothes are wet." Lu Peichuan lowered his eyes and casually draped the towel over the armrest of the sofa.

It wasn't raining heavily outside. Uncle Chen gave him an umbrella, so how come he still got wet?

The thought only flashed through Rong Zheng's mind for a moment. On a rainy day, one could easily get soaked without realizing it, so she didn't think much of it and simply asked, "Do you want me to make you a packet of cold medicine?"

"No need." Lu Peichuan helped Rong Zheng into the house. "The staff said you went for a medical check-up. How did it go?"

"Apart from being slightly anemic, everything else is normal."

A look of self-reproach crossed Lu Peichuan's eyes. "It's all my fault."

Can't someone with severe bleeding become anemic?

But Rong Zheng wasn't one to hold grudges. Now that it was over, she wouldn't bring it up again. Holding grudges would only lead to internal strife. "It's all in the past."

Lu Peichuan helped Rong Zheng walk towards the bed.

Rong Zheng stopped in her tracks. "I don't want to sleep right now. Let's go to the sofa. I have something to tell you."

"Okay." Lu Peichuan helped Rong Zheng sit down on the sofa. "What do you want to say?"

Rong Zheng turned slightly to face Lu Peichuan, "I smelled Su Qingya's perfume in the elevator."

She didn't continue speaking, but kept her eyes fixed on Lu Peichuan, not wanting to miss any expression on his face.

Lu Peichuan paused slightly, then seemed to remember something and said, "Her perfume scent seems a bit similar to President Ling's. I remember you said you didn't like that kind of sweet, cloying scent."

"Who is President Ling?"

"One of my business partners is a very capable woman."

So she misunderstood?

The perfume in the car, and the perfume on Lu Peichuan, wasn't Su Qingya's; it was President Ling's.

Seeing Rong Zheng remain silent, Lu Peichuan asked, "Why are you suddenly bringing this up?"

Rong Zheng felt that honesty was very important between husband and wife, so she did not hide anything and truthfully expressed her thoughts.

After listening, Lu Peichuan asked incredulously, "You don't think there's anything between me and Su Qingya, do you?"

Rong Zheng frankly admitted, "The moment I smelled her perfume, I did have my doubts."

Lu Peichuan smiled helplessly, "She's been chasing after me since junior high. If there were anything between us, we would have done it long ago. Why would I disregard the wishes of both our families, reject her, and marry you instead?"

Rong Zheng thought about it and realized that made sense.

"Is Zhengzheng jealous?" Lu Peichuan asked as he moved closer to Rong Zheng.

The man's refreshing shower gel scent wafted over her instantly, mixed with his warm breath, making Rong Zheng's cheeks flush. "I didn't."

Lu Peichuan gripped the back of Rong Zheng's neck and moved closer to her. "Then why are you blushing?"

Rong Zheng leaned back subconsciously. "Speak properly, don't get so close to me."

Lu Peichuan gently pressed Rong Zheng's strength against the back of the sofa.

Startled, Rong Zheng reached out and pressed against his chest. "Don't do anything reckless. The doctor said we can't have sex for three months."

Lu Peichuan laughed, "What are you thinking? I'm not that much of a beast. I just want to kiss you."

After she became pregnant, Lu Peichuan rarely kissed her, because he had to take a cold shower after each kiss.

The last time they kissed was probably two months ago, and now he suddenly wants to kiss her...

Rong Zheng felt a little nervous, and there was also a hint of anticipation. She slowly closed her eyes.

The man's warm breath drew near, and Rong Zheng unconsciously tightened her fingers slightly, just as their lips were about to touch...

"It's so cute to see such a tiny baby swimming with a collar."

Xu Ma's voice came from outside.

Rong Zheng immediately opened her eyes, pushed Lu Peichuan away, and hurriedly straightened her clothes as if she had done something wrong.

Soon, Xu Ma appeared at the door carrying Tangtang, along with the postpartum nanny who was carrying bath supplies.

Rong Zheng immediately stood up and walked to the bedside. "I'm tired, I'm going to sleep for a while." Then she took off her shoes, got into bed, and covered herself with the blanket, all in one smooth motion.

Lu Peichuan was amused by her obviously guilty look. They were husband and wife, so why did she act like they were having an affair?
