By the time she returned home, it was just evening and Mo Ting was still at Hai Rui.
Tangning stood in the living room and scanned her and Mo Ting's home. As she thought back to the past year, her heart was filled with sweetness.
Tomorrow was their wedding anniversary. Over the past year, she had experienced many ups and downs and seen through many trials and tribulations. The only thing worth celebrating was that Mo Ting was always by her side.
Looking at the time, it was still early. Tangning originally wanted to prepare a sumptuous dinner for Mo Ting, but she received a phone call from Long Jie at 7pm.
Tangning thought Long Jie was calling to congratulate her on her one year wedding anniversary. However, after she picked up the phone, she heard Long Jie's anxious voice, "Tangning, are you on set? I'm going to find you now. "
"I'm at home. What happened?" Tangning's nerves suddenly tensed up because of Long Jie's tone.
"I don't know who to look for anymore. I can only look for you …"
"What's wrong?" Tangning could hear the sobbing tone in Long Jie's voice. Logically speaking, Lu Che wouldn't bully Long Jie.
"I'm at Beijing Hospital, the gynecology department."
Tangning was a little surprised. Long Jie had been trying to get pregnant for a long time, but there had been no news. Did something happen to her body? She simply comforted Long Jie, "Don't panic. Send me the address, I'll be right there."
"Don't tell Lu Che," Long Jie warned as she sobbed. She then told Tangning her current location.
In order not to be recognised, Tangning put on a simple disguise and drove out. 40 minutes later, she anxiously entered the hospital to look for Long Jie. Finally, she found Long Jie in the second consultation room.
"What's going on?"
Long Jie's eyes were red and swollen as she whispered something in Tangning's ear. Tangning was stunned for a moment before comforting her, "It will be fine. Just cooperate with the doctor."
It turned out, she had lost some blood in a certain part of her body. The doctor suspected she was pregnant, but had an accidental miscarriage. Long Jie was afraid, so she gave Tangning a phone call.
"Why didn't you just tell Lu Che?"
"He's been under a lot of pressure recently. I don't want to disappoint him." Long Jie sighed. Her eyes were filled with guilt and annoyance, "How could I be so careless? I've been looking forward to this baby for so long … "
"Don't scare yourself," Tangning comforted as she hugged Long Jie, "First, let's cooperate with the doctor."
"I don't dare," Long Jie was afraid. She was afraid that things would turn out as the doctor predicted and she had a miscarriage.
If that was the case, how could she accept it?
"I really don't dare... I really want to give Lu Che a baby."
"How about I do it with you?" Tangning tried to find a way to encourage Long Jie, "The doctor is only speculating, everything still needs to go through a detailed examination. Since I have already arranged a medical tomorrow, why don't I do it with you now?
"Also, if you have a baby, but you refuse to have it checked and treated, have you thought about the consequences?"
After hearing Tangning's words, Long Jie's heart wavered. After struggling for quite some time, she finally nodded her head, "In that case, let's go together..."
"Yes, I will accompany you."
Tangning instructed the doctors to make arrangements as soon as possible. However, as there were too many people to check, the doctors decided to arrange for two people to have their HCG blood tests done first. This way, they could avoid the possibility of an ultrasound test being too early. It was double insurance.
The hospital was very considerate. Taking into consideration Tangning's identity, they did their best to keep everything confidential.
"Miss Tang, the results will be available in 6 hours. Would you like to wait in the hospital?" the doctor asked.
"I will accompany her for an ultrasound test first."
"OK, we will make arrangements as soon as possible," the doctor said. Just as he was about to leave, Tangning held onto him and said gently.
"You don't need to make arrangements for me." After all, they hadn't done their best to keep everything confidential. If a passerby took a photo, it would definitely make the headlines the next day. She simply did the blood test to appease Long Jie, so there was no need for an ultrasound.
"OK," the doctor nodded and turned to leave.
Tangning accompanied Long Jie to the doctor's office to calm herself down. Not long after, she received a phone call from Mo Ting asking if she was still on set.
Seeing Long Jie shake her head, Tangning replied, "Long Jie and I haven't seen each other in a while. Let's get together for a bit, I'll be home late."
"In that case, do you want me to cook dinner and wait for you?"
"No need, Ting. Hurry up and get some rest after dinner."
Mo Ting did not ask any further. He simply reminded her to be careful and to return home early.
After hanging up the phone, Tangning waited with Long Jie at the hospital. Not long after, the doctor informed Long Jie that she was ready for an ultrasound.
Long Jie anxiously grabbed onto Tangning's hands and refused to let go. So, Tangning had no choice but to accompany her into the ultrasound room. Under the help of the advanced equipment, the doctor initially furrowed his brows and said to the two, "You're not pregnant. I think you're on your period. Don't worry."
After hearing this, Long Jie was initially disappointed. But, she quickly comforted herself. At least, it wasn't a miscarriage... this was already a blessing in disguise.
"Then, my body..."
"There's nothing wrong with your body. It's very healthy. Don't scare yourself," the doctor smiled as he put down the equipment in his hands. "Sometimes, when it comes to pregnancy, you need to believe in fate. Don't force yourself, otherwise, it will be harder for you to get pregnant."
Tangning helped Long Jie out of bed and helped her tidy up her clothes, "Do you feel better now?"
Long Jie hesitated for a moment before letting out a sigh of relief. At least, there was nothing wrong with her body. Even though, at this moment, her limbs still felt weak and cold.
Not long after, the couple drove out of the hospital. As they sat in the car, Tangning looked at Long Jie and asked, "Why do you keep things to yourself and never tell Lu Che?"
"Is he not worthy of your trust?"
"It's not because of that... I care about him too much, so I'm afraid he'll be disappointed."
Tangning looked at Long Jie. She didn't know when it started, but Long Jie's status in their marriage had become more and more humble. Lu Che was obviously working hard.
"From now on, you can either tell him about things like this, or I'll tell him. It's your choice," Tangning said firmly. "Don't always think too highly of yourself and make things harder for Lu Che."
"Would I?" Long Jie asked cautiously.
"If I was Lu Che and you didn't call me at a time like this, I would feel terrible," Tangning said straightforwardly. "The person Lu Che likes is your original self. But, why do I feel like, for the sake of our child, you haven't been yourself lately?"
"Do you want to get your results before you leave?" Long Jie reminded as she saw the hospital getting further and further away.
"It's not important to me. Plus, I've left my phone number. The hospital will contact me..."
