After receiving the certificate, she was pinched and doted on by the wealthy heir.

The doctor's advice was written at the bottom of the report: Long-term malnutrition... leads to difficulty in childbirth.

There was not a single extra word, but the sight of her was so thrilling that her breathing tightened.

The nurse gave her a sympathetic look: "The doctor said that when you feel better, go to the office to see him. There are some issues that need to be discussed with you in person."

She nodded numbly, got out of bed, put on her shoes, and walked out of the ward.

When she came out of the doctor's office, she was still dazed. As she walked back to the ward, she glanced sideways and saw her reflection in the window next to her.

She is still so young and has already lost her fertility...

She will most likely never have children of her own.

She can't blame others for this, she can only blame her own unfortunate fate.

That year, her mother passed away, and later her father was in a car accident. She was still a minor, and the only one who could take care of her was a stepmother in name only.

How could Jiang Na really take care of her? During those days, she was hungry and full, and now she feels unbearable to think about it.During the arduous journey of studying, she got sick twice, but she did not go to the hospital each time. She gritted her teeth and fought through it.

Now it seems that it should be related to these two illnesses.

As if the doctor's words were still echoing in her ears, she stupidly pushed open the ward door and was stunned when she saw the tall figure inside.

It's Han Xiao.

"Where have you been?" He frowned.

"Going to the bathroom." She made up a lie casually.

"There is a bathroom in the ward." Han Xiao exposed it without mercy.

The corner of Xia Taozhi's mouth moved: "I was bored here, so I went out for a walk. I was afraid that the doctor would find out about me, so..."

Han Xiao frowned even more tightly: "You are recuperating now, not traveling. Resting well is more important than anything else. If you want to go out and play, you will have many opportunities."

She lowered her eyelids and nodded obediently.

There should be no need to tell him the bad news he just learned...

After all, they are not a real couple. After three years of separation, he will have a new wife by his side who will have children with him.

She felt suddenly grateful.

If it weren't for this fake marriage, she might not even be qualified to get the certificate.

Which person of the opposite sex would accept that his wife is infertile?

Xia Taozhi didn't dare to think about it anymore because the man in front of her was still trying to figure out her expression.

"You don't look right. What happened?" he asked.

"It's nothing, I just don't want to stay in the hospital anymore."

I'm not lying. Who wants to stay in the ward for several days?

He sighed, looking helpless at Xia Taozhi's sudden childishness: "Okay, I'll ask the doctor. If possible, I'll discharge you from the hospital this afternoon."

She tightened her palms: "Okay."

When leaving the doctor's office, she told the doctor not to tell Han Xiao that she was infertile.Anyway, this is a matter between their husband and wife, and outsiders shouldn't say much about it.

She believed that Han Xiao would not know.

Sure enough, after lunch, Han Xiao brought good news that Xia Taozhi could be discharged from the hospital.

After packing his luggage, he drove her back.

Halfway through, he suddenly said: "I'm sorry for kissing you that day, but if I didn't do it at that time, you would have been very uncomfortable and might not have survived the hospital."

Her cheeks suddenly felt hot.

It's just a kiss, and to normal adult men and women, it's nothing.

These days, she also tried hard to forget this matter, but she didn't expect that he would take the initiative to mention it.

"Don't be sorry." She shook her head, "I know, it happened suddenly."

Han Xiao's throat tightened. For some reason, seeing her so calm and calm made him a little unhappy.The kiss was obviously good... they were both deeply into it.

However, he was not sure whether she was affected by the fragrance or whether she really had feelings for him.

Realizing that he was overthinking, Han Xiao twitched the corner of his mouth sarcastically: "Well, as long as you understand. You will go back to your room to rest later. If someone is blocking the door, don't worry about it. Just leave it to me. "

Xia Taozhi opened her mouth: "Okay."

Then she leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes to rest.

Han Xiao's eyes glanced over from time to time, taking a look at the girl who was taking a nap in a dazed manner.

It was an inexplicable feeling, he always felt that she was a little different in his heart.

This feeling was ridiculous. He didn't believe it himself. He shook his head to get rid of these distracting thoughts from his mind - he didn't believe anyone, let alone the person who was married by contract.

It must be because Xia Taozhi has behaved very well during this period. He has always liked smart people, regardless of gender.

Soon, Fuhai Garden arrived.

A group of people had already gathered outside the villa door.

Xia Taozhi opened her eyes and saw that they were all relatives of the Han family.

But Han Sheng is not here.

There was the fourth aunt Han Ying, the second aunt and the third aunt, and the rest were helpers brought by them. They were all very angry, and it seemed they were here to settle accounts with them.

Xia Taozhi sighed in her heart, how could she be alone in this situation.

Just as she was about to get out of the car with Han Xiao, she opened the car door but was pushed back by the man: "Don't make trouble, just stay in the car."

She was stunned, not expecting that Han Xiao would really protect her.

Obviously if something like this happened before, he would let her go ahead.

Han Ying: "Axiao, how could you do this? Yue'er is your sister!"

"Yes, you are so cruel. Do you know how sad your mother is? She has not thought about food or food at home these past two days and cannot even sleep well." The second aunt had a polite attitude and spoke elegantly. , but there is a trace of schadenfreude.

Xia Taozhi secretly opened the car window a crack and listened carefully to what was going on outside.

Hearing her second aunt's words, she lowered her eyelids and half-sneered, half-smiled.

The third aunt was more direct: "You are a family of flesh and blood. No matter how unconvinced your wife is, she should not take it out on your sister. You are brothers and sisters. This is enough to show that that woman is not a good thing! Let her get out of the car. , we should ask her carefully."

Han Xiao listened quietly to the words of the three elders and said calmly: "Oh, are you planning to explain this matter clearly at the door? I don't care, I just don't know what the neighbors will think if they hear it. ?”

Han Ying suddenly became speechless.

The second aunt and the third aunt also looked at each other and suddenly stopped.

They all have children at home, and if this kind of thing spreads, it will hurt both.

They did want to watch the joke, but they couldn't do it too blatantly, otherwise they could easily hurt one of their own.

When Han Xiao saw that the three of them were silent, he raised his lips and said, "Get all your people away. I don't like the mess at home, and I don't like the presence of strangers."

Han Ying is still worried about the last time he was threatened.

"Then what if you attack us? You grew up in a slum. What can't you do?"

Xia Taozhi's heart skipped a beat.

Slums... Han Xiao is not the eldest son of the Han family, how could he grow up in a place like that?
