"You don't have the final say in this matter. You should ask Lu Che first," Tangning suggested. "After all, this is a matter between you and your wife. You shouldn't always think that you can make all the decisions on your own."
"However, after trying all methods and seeing no results, I think … it's feasible."
After receiving Tangning's approval, Long Jie clapped her hands and said, "Let's do it..."
"Sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop on you two. I simply overheard you talking about IVF. Does Miss Long want a baby?" Behind them, Bai Lihua placed a teacup in front of Long Jie as she scanned her body. "Is there a problem?"
"Auntie Bai... does this mean you know about this?" Long Jie leaned back on the sofa. She was curious about Bai Lihua.
"Perhaps... I can answer your questions."
After all, Bai Lihua was Mo Ting's real mother. So, it wasn't a lie that she researched biotechnology. Since that was the case, she was naturally familiar with genetics.
"You can show me your test results."
After hearing this, Tangning and Long Jie suddenly had a new understanding of the disfigured woman in front of them.
"OK, I'll bring them to you in a moment. If Auntie Bai can really help me, I will be extremely grateful."
In reality, Chen Xingyan had a strange personality and she also knew a few things that a quack doctor would know. So, she wasn't surprised that Bai Lihua knew about this.
Long Jie simply wanted to give it a try. After all, they weren't going to get tested by a proper doctor. So, she didn't have high hopes for Bai Lihua.
But, having hope was better than having no hope at all...
So, Long Jie quickly handed her and Lu Che's test results to Bai Lihua, "Auntie Bai, it's all here."
Bai Lihua held the report in her hands and looked at it carefully. After comparing the results, she said to Long Jie, "According to the report, you and Mr. Lu are indeed healthy. Everything is normal."
"Then, why did we..."
"Don't panic," Bai Lihua tried to calm Long Jie down. "There are still a lot of things that cannot be explained in the medical field. As for infertility, there are a lot of people like you who can't find a reason for it."
"In that case, did the hospital tell you that the environment can affect pregnancy?"
"What... what do you mean?" Long Jie obviously didn't think about the environment.
"Miss Long, you and Mr. Lu should move." Bai Lihua seemed to have suddenly received an answer as she smiled at Long Jie, "When it comes to infertility, one of the main reasons is due to physical and chemical reasons and environmental pollution. The two of you have strong bodies, why don't you try a change of environment?"
"There's such a thing? But the previous hospitals didn't tell me … "
"You all went for the checkup alone, and your bodies are fine. Most hospitals either ask you to do IVF or let nature take its course. Many doctors will ignore these seemingly secondary reasons."
Long Jie's heart was suddenly filled with hope as she looked at Bai Lihua in a new light, "I never thought our Auntie Bai would be so amazing."
Actually, Tangning noticed that Bai Lihua was quite knowledgeable when it came to medicinal cuisine.
At the very least, when Bai Lihua took care of her current meals, she never had to look up information to understand the attributes of the food. She simply knew how to make it the most nutritious.
"Go back and give it a try. If it works, you can thank me again."
Long Jie excitedly pulled out her phone and gave Lu Che a phone call. Meanwhile, Tangning looked at Auntie Bai with a serious expression, "I never thought Auntie Bai was so good at hiding things."
"Not really. I learned it in the past. Xiao Xing was injured when he was young and he practiced martial arts, so I decided to learn it."
Tangning nodded her head and did not continue asking. But …
Bai Lihua's skills weren't something that could be learned casually.
At least, Tangning was certain that Bai Lihua was very professional.
"In that case, your face …"
Bai Lihua understood what Tangning was trying to say. She understood why Tangning didn't choose to undergo plastic surgery to restore her appearance.
"My injuries are too severe and I can't recover. If I want to remove my mask, I will need at least 4 surgeries. Even if I manage to get it back, my face won't look natural. In fact, it might even look more frightening. So, I gave up," Bai Lihua explained in seriousness. "Over the years, I've been overseas a few times, but …"
"I'm sorry, Auntie Bai."
"It's fine." Bai Lihua smiled. But, under her mask, her skin seemed to be stretched taut because of this smile.
Too much time had passed. All that was left were scars. But … this hatred and vengeance was etched deep into her heart.
…
The next day, the production crew of 'The Savage Wars' gave An Zihao a phone call. They were very satisfied with Chen Xingyan's performance and wanted to sign her as one of the villains.
It seemed, the ruthless way she hit people left a deep impression on the interviewers. So, the production crew contacted An Zihao and requested him to bring Chen Xingyan along when they went to the US.
Instead of securing a main character, they secured the female villain!
An Zihao looked at Chen Xingyan in the distance. He felt this woman was quite unbelievable. It was bad enough that she acted casually, but was her life also so casual?
"An, don't look at me like that." Over the past two days, Chen Xingyan had gotten herself a video game console.
Instead of playing with cash, she insisted on playing something that was hard to find on the streets.
"Are you going to act as the number one villain?"
"It's not like you don't know that I can't face the camera."
"But, during the audition, you were surrounded by at least 10 video games."
"I was there to beat someone up. I had no intention of going for the audition," Chen Xingyan rolled her eyes. "Plus, why would I go overseas? All I know is how to say that I'm not gay. Do you want me to embarrass myself? "
"You can stop pretending," An Zihao clearly saw Chen Xingyan speaking to the interviewer in English that day.
Although her English was a little lacking, she wasn't completely clueless.
"Hey, An, there's no need for you to turn me into an international superstar. I think I'm doing great right now. There's no need for me to change."
"Don't you have any goals in life?"
"Of course I do. I like excitement," Chen Xingyan replied in seriousness. "I like the impossible. So, don't ask me to act as a villain. I've already experienced that feeling. I'm not interested."
At this moment, An Zihao's heart was in turmoil. He couldn't understand why he had signed Chen Xingyan to torture himself!
"What are you living for?"
