815 Her Heart Was Beating Rapidly!

You Nainai was the one who called the family doctor over. Fu Huai'an felt that the house wasn't as well-equipped as the hospital, and Lin Nuan wouldn't be able to receive a thorough physical checkup.

But the family doctor was already there, and Fu Huai'an couldn't just ask her to go back.

"Did you rush back because I made you worry?"

Lin Nuan stared into Fu Huai'an's eyes. Under his arched brows, his eyes were evidently bloodshot. His fatigue was hidden behind a gentle smile, and his slender and well-defined features seemed even more prominent.

"That's part of the reason! It's mostly because I missed you…" he said.

Lin Nuan and Fu Huai'an had constantly kept in touch while he was on his business trip. She knew how much Fu Huai'an rested, how busy he was, and how tired he was.

She felt sorry for Fu Huai'an, but she finally didn't have to worry about him.

Lin Nuan couldn't hold herself back. She got up and knelt beside the bed, her arms wrapping around Fu Huai'an's waist. His familiar and calming scent was so comforting that it made her nose sting. She rubbed her teary eyes into Fu Huai'an's chest before looking up into his eyes. "I missed you too. I missed you so, so, so much!"

Fu Huai'an held onto Lin Nuan's slender waist with one hand and gently caressed her back with the other as he lowered his head…

Their eyes met. Lin Nuan knew what Fu Huai'an was trying to do and held her breath as she gently raised her head. When their noses touched, it felt like an electric current was sent down her spine!

Fu Huai'an's searing hot lips pressed against her own as he hugged her tightly and expertly pushed his tongue into her mouth…

His long and slender fingers weaved through Lin Nuan's dark hair as he grabbed the back of her head and deepened the kiss.

Under Lin Nuan's palms were Fu Huai'an's firm neck and shoulders. His body gradually became warmer, causing Lin Nuan to grab at the back of his collar instinctively. She tilted her head to respond to the kiss and hugged him even tighter.

Lin Nuan was kissed until she ran out of breath, and her mind went blank. She thought that if they continued, they wouldn't be able to stop. When it came to that, Fu Huai'an never knew how to control himself!

After a few days of not seeing each other, Lin Nuan had missed Fu Huai'an dearly. She missed everything about him!

The room heated up, and Lin Nuan's mind was filled with desire. She was slowly losing the strength to raise her head and accept Fu Huai'an's passionate kiss. His deep kiss was even causing goosebumps to form all over her body!

Lin Nuan's hands slid down Fu Huai'an's shoulders and reached into his home clothes. His warm lips pulled away from hers the moment her slightly cold fingers touched his firm muscles.

Their bodies, which had been tightly pressed together, suddenly separated from each other. Lin Nuan opened her unfocused eyes. Desire still filled her body as she panted, and her chest heaved up and down rapidly.

In the past, Fu Huai'an would always be the first one to stop holding himself back…

As Lin Nuan slowly came back to her senses, she could clearly see the swirling darkness in Fu Huai'an's eyes.

He held onto Lin Nuan's slender wrist, which seemed like it would break with one snap, and said, "You're still injured…"

Lin Nuan's strong feelings of desire dissipated, and she gradually regained her composure. The tips of her ears inevitably flushed, as she felt that she was too anxious earlier. She expressed her desire to do it with Fu Huai'an but was rejected by him in such a gentle way. Fu Huai'an was her husband, but she felt ashamed nevertheless!

The atmosphere between them had clearly gotten to that stage, but Fu Huai'an suddenly told her to stop. Lin Nuan inevitably felt awkward on top of feeling ashamed.

"Wait until you've recovered…" Fu Huai'an could seemingly tell how Lin Nuan felt. He lifted her chin and gently kissed her.

Lin Nuan used to be a shy young lady, but now she was willing to not hold back in front of Fu Huai'an. She had no idea how blissful he felt!

But his leg was injured, and he didn't want her to see it.

Fu Huai'an had previously said that he wouldn't lie to Lin Nuan, but he didn't want her to worry either, so he planned to hide it from her as long as he could.

"We can go for a physical checkup at the private hospital anytime. If you haven't gotten enough sleep, you can sleep in for a while more… I'll keep you company!" Fu Huai'an looked down at her.

Lin Nuan wanted to shake her head, but she nodded after seeing Fu Huai'an's bloodshot eyes.

The blankets were lifted, and Fu Huai'an laid down. Lin Nuan laid her head against his arm and asked, "Will you be keeping me company for the whole day?"

"After accompanying you for the checkup, I have to return to the company. There's a meeting at four o'clock in the afternoon…"

Fu Huai'an was really too busy. He was even busier than when he was the president of the Kaide Corporation.

Lin Nuan closed her eyes. She didn't want to act coquettishly and tell Fu Huai'an that she wanted him to keep her company—that would only make him feel bad. She pressed her body closer to Fu Huai'an's and said, "It's okay. I have to go to the agency in the afternoon anyway. I'll send you a message on the way back, and we can pick up Tuan Tuan together if time permits!"

"You can only start work if the doctor says you can after he takes a look at your wound!" Fu Huai'an's deep voice was gentle, but it was evident from his tone that there was no room for discussion.

Fu Huai'an was always especially concerned about Lin Nuan's health.

Fu Huai'an heard from You Nainai that Lin Nuan felt nauseous and wanted to throw up. She also liked to eat sour foods, but she wasn't pregnant. He was afraid that Lin Nuan was suffering from some other illness, so he made an appointment for a physical checkup at the private hospital.

There wouldn't be many people at the private hospital. Since they had made an appointment, they would be able to proceed with the checkup straight away. It wasn't like a public hospital, where they'd have to queue up no matter what.

Lin Nuan didn't say a word and simply nodded. They didn't have a lot of time, so she wanted to let Fu Huai'an get as much sleep as he could!

…

At 1:30 pm, Fu Huai'an accompanied Lin Nuan to the private hospital.

The physical checkup proceeded very smoothly. If they had gone to a public hospital, Lin Nuan would have had to go through so many tests that even an entire day wouldn't be enough. Lin Nuan finished the checkup and received the results very quickly.

The doctor was told that Fu Huai'an and Lin Nuan didn't use protection in the bedroom, so they didn't rule out the possibility of Lin Nuan being pregnant. Lin Nuan's blood was drawn for testing, and the doctor said that the results showed increased levels of hCG[1] in her body. It was a hormone that indicated whether or not a woman was pregnant, though the overall hCG levels in her body were still low. Because of this, Lin Nuan didn't go through certain tests that couldn't be carried out on pregnant women.

The results showed that Lin Nuan suffered from gastric problems. That was expected since she had always suffered from them. In the past, Liang Mulan took a very long time to help Lin Nuan boost her constitution. She was now experiencing a relapse!

Lin Nuan also unexpectedly suffered from anemia, but it wasn't severe. The doctor recommended against using medication for the time being and suggested drinking peanut skin boiled in water. It could taste bitter, but she could add red dates and rock sugar to reduce the bitterness.

The doctor also said that the wound on Lin Nuan's arm was just an abrasion and that it had healed up very nicely. The blood test results did show that there was a slight increase in the levels of hCG in Lin Nuan's body, but when the doctor considered Lin Nuan's menstrual cycles, he couldn't determine if she was pregnant or not at that moment. As such, it was best for her to avoid E'jiao[2] and other foods that improved blood circulation for the time being. When her period was delayed by around 15 days, she could return to the hospital for a B-scan to see if there was a fertilized egg in her womb.

When Lin Nuan heard the doctor's words, she felt Fu Huai'an tighten his hold on her shoulders!

Her heart was beating rapidly!

The last pregnancy test she had taken indicated that she wasn't pregnant, and it caused her heart to sink…
