Lu Xingchen woke up and found herself lying on a hospital bed. The room was brightly lit and her eyes slowly fell on Li Zhen who was standing beside the bed.

Li Zhen came over immediately when he saw her wake up, "Xingchen, are you awake? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Lu Xingchen was a little slow to react, but when she reacted, she immediately put her hand on her belly and asked, "Where's the baby? Is the baby okay?"

Li Zhen's eyes softened when he saw her reaction. He held her hand and asked slowly, "Xingchen, have you gone to the hospital to confirm the baby?"

Lu Xingchen was stunned for a moment by his question, "No, what's wrong?"

Li Zhen squeezed her hand a little harder and explained to her carefully: "When we first arrived at the hospital, I told the doctor about the baby, but the test results showed that we are not pregnant yet."

"No?" Lu Xingchen was a little confused, "But I used the pregnancy test stick and it clearly showed a reaction, and my period was delayed for a few days."

"The doctor thought that you also used a pregnancy test stick, so his explanation was that the pregnancy test stick might be distorted, or that some pregnancy test sticks might show a watermark in the days close to the menstrual period, so we don't have a baby yet."

Lu Xingchen suddenly felt an indescribable sense of loss in his heart. After a moment of silence, he couldn't help but ask Li Zhen: "You are not comforting me like this because something happened to the baby, right?"

"No." Li Zhen assured her, "Besides, if something happened to the baby, your body should react, right?"

Yes, if something happens to the baby, there will be bleeding at least. Lu Xingchen felt disappointed and embarrassed. "I'm sorry, I really thought you were pregnant. I was planning to go to the hospital on Saturday to confirm and tell you."

"Silly girl." Li Zhen tilted his head and kissed the back of her hand. "What's there to be embarrassed about? As long as you like it, we can have a baby anytime when you are well. But I don't ask for anything now. I just hope you are well. You have been hospitalized several times due to injuries this year."

Speaking of injuries, Lu Xingchen suddenly remembered to ask, "Where's Aunt Chen? Is Aunt Chen okay?"

Li Zhen couldn't help but feel a little apologetic. After all, if possible, he also wanted to save Chen Ma for Lu Xingchen: "Chen Ma has just been rescued and is not in danger of life for the time being."

Lu Xingchen's expression suddenly changed.

Li Zhen knew what he was thinking and explained, "It wasn't Chen Xiaolin, it was Wang Silin. He wanted to attack Chen Xiaolin, but Chen's mother blocked it for Chen Xiaolin."

"Wang Silin is not dead?"

"Yeah, but it's a good thing he was seriously injured, otherwise both sides might be in greater danger."

Li Zhen meant that if there was another fight, either Wang Silin or Chen's mother would die, and Chen Xiaolin would also inevitably be responsible for a loss of life.

She then asked, "Where's Chen Xiaolin?"

Li Zhen: "Maybe it was because of Chen Ma's actions that touched her. After she saw Chen Ma being taken away by 120, she followed the police obediently. Moreover, she has already admitted all the crimes."

Lu Xingchen sighed heavily, looking at his bandaged palm, her eyes full of heartache. She raised her hand and gently pulled Li Zhen over. Looking at the bandaged wound on the back of his head, guilt could not help showing in her eyes.

Li Zhen smiled and comforted: "It's okay, just a minor injury."

Lu Xingchen: "Being with me, you will be in constant bloody trouble."

Li Zhen: "I would rather have everything fall on me. It would be more painful to see you lying on the hospital bed and I can't do anything to help you. However, God has been testing us for so long, it's time for happiness to come, right?"

As the two were talking, Xu Fanghua, Wang Yaning and some others entered the ward.

Lu Xingchen also felt that he had been to the hospital quite frequently this year. The waves of people coming to visit him seemed to have just come a few months ago, and now history was repeating itself.

It won't be long until she is discharged from the hospital.

Xu Fanghua, who had never believed in Buddhism, followed Wang Yaning and Wang Yajuan to the temple to burn incense. It was said that she also donated a huge amount of money to pray for her and Li Zhen, praying that they would be safe and sound in the future and not have any more accidents. She also helped them get rid of villains, etc.

After going through all these things, Li Zhen accompanied Lu Xingchen to adjust their work intensity, spending more time with her to recuperate and spending more time together.

After more than two months, Lu Xingchen's new and old injuries were all healed. Thanks to the cooking skills of Li Zhen and Wang Yaning, he gained seven or eight kilograms and his physical condition improved. It was already the new year of the lunar calendar.

Lin Huanxi's second brother got married.

Li Zhen served as the best man, and Lu Xingchen and Lin Huanxi sat in the seat for the groom's relatives to attend the wedding banquet. Although it was Second Brother Lin's home court, Lu Xingchen was asked many questions thanks to Li Zhen, who not only had a very high status in the family but also had a very high height and appearance.

"Is this Li Zhen's girlfriend?"

Wang Yaning replied with a smile: "Yes, her name is Xingchen, Lu Xingchen."

"She's so beautiful, and she's a perfect match for Li Zhen."

Wang Yaning was like her own daughter being praised. She looked proud but she said, "Hey, they are just ordinary people."

The relative then asked, "When will we have the wedding wine?"

Immediately, an elder followed up and said, "Yes, the two children have been dating for a long time. When are they going to get married?"

Everyone was not only asking Wang Yaning, but also looking at Lu Xingchen. However, without waiting for Lu Xingchen to speak, Wang Yaning said, "They are all busy with work, and children nowadays are not in a hurry to get married. I have also let it go. Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. I will take advantage of the fact that I don't have grandchildren to take care of me to have a few more years of leisure!"

"You're still free, aren't you busy with your pickle processing?"

"Not so busy now. A few years ago, my wrist joint syndrome was too serious, so Li Zhen hired someone to take care of it. So I had time to go and see..."

The elders' words finally shifted away from the important matter of Li Zhen and her marriage. Lu Xingchen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It was not because of the elders' urging for marriage, but because she remembered very clearly that she had told Li Zhen in person in the abandoned underground parking lot that she would marry him once they got out safely.

Now they are out safely, but because she is not pregnant, she has never mentioned this matter, and Li Zhen has always focused on taking care of her body and has not asked deliberately.

However, some time ago, the two of them went out to eat together. When they passed by the hotel entrance, they saw a couple getting married. Li Zhen suddenly looked at her with a half-smile.

And suddenly she felt guilty like a thief, picked up the phone and called Cheng Xiao, and walked straight over without paying attention to the bride and groom at the door. Li Zhen smiled and said something from behind.

"coward."

That was the most specific time they had talked about marriage so far.

Lu Xingchen looked at Li Zhen, one of the best men following Brother Lin, who was dressed neatly in a suit, and suddenly thought, if he brought up the topic of marriage to her again because of this wedding today, how would she answer?

Lin Huanxi, who was beside her, suddenly pulled her clothes under the table and said, "Brother Chen, look."

Lu Xingchen followed Lin Huanxi's line of sight and saw Feng Qianyu, who was wearing a high-slit long skirt, a short leather jacket, high boots, and European-style makeup, walking towards them.
