He whispered softly in her ear, "Let's get it checked in a few days. Stop crying for now; you still have a meeting to attend soon."
When Ye Xi heard the word "meeting," she finally calmed down.
She pushed him away and fiercely sniffed, her eyes red as she glared at him, "I'm telling you, you better pray that I'm not... mmm..."
Ah Gui covered her mouth, "Don't talk like that. If there really is a baby, it'll be upset to hear this."
"Mmm..." Ye Xi grasped his hand and tugged.
Ah Gui let go of her.
Ye Xi slapped him across the face.
The loud slap made the room fall silent all at once.
Ah Gui sighed, said nothing, and grabbed a tissue to wipe the tears off her face, "Calm your emotions and go to your meeting first. We can talk about everything else when you get back."
Seeing his attitude of enduring whatever she did or said made Ye Xi very uncomfortable. How could he tolerate her like this?
She glared at him, and Ah Gui did not evade, "Or, do you want to slap me again?"
