Chen Shouwang's submission pleased Hualing greatly. After being reprimanded by Cheng Su, she didn't cling to the issue. Seeing Chen Shouwang giving in, she gracefully stepped back and naturally apologized, allowing Chen Shouwang to relax as well. The couple considered the matter settled.
And just a few days later, Chen Shouwang secretly visited the hospital where Hualing worked to get a check-up. Once the results came out, both breathed a sigh of relief; there were no problems with either of them. Their childlessness was probably due to their past pattern of frequent separations combined with their recent daily arguments, which significantly reduced their intimate moments, and thus, the delay in having a child.
Hualing reflected on her behavior and had another in-depth conversation with Chen Shouwang. She promised to try to control her temper from now on. Once she opened up, Chen Shouwang himself felt somewhat guilty.
He thought of Liu Li.
