Yan Zhen Guo reached out in time and pulled Gu Fuqiao into his arms.
This way, her head was spared from hitting the car window.
"Mm." Gu Fuqiao groggily opened her eyes and took a glance at Yan Zhen Guo, but her consciousness was fuzzy, and she quickly fell back asleep in the swaying car.
Meanwhile, Yan Zhen Guo kept his eyes fixed straight ahead at the windshield.
After a while, the car stopped at the entrance of the hospital.
Cheng Zhang turned his head and said to Yan Zhen Guo, "Captain, the hospital is here."
He saw Yan Zhen Guo naturally holding Gu Fuqiao and was somewhat surprised.
It was the first time he had seen King Yan in such close proximity to a woman.
Looks like marriage really changes things, even King Yan turns into a good husband!
And the sister-in-law in King Yan's arms seemed peaceful even while asleep.
Those rumors about King Yan not getting along with his wife are clearly untrue!
Yan Zhen Guo responded and then looked down at Gu Fuqiao in his arms.
At this moment, Gu Fuqiao was dreaming, about deadlines and threats to cut off her internet!
She was ready to cry and complain when she suddenly heard a powerful voice.
"We're at the hospital, don't sleep."
This voice sounded so familiar!
Gu Fuqiao raised her hand to rub her eyes, and she saw a man's face magnified many times!
That man was none other than the protagonist, Yan Zhen Guo! This close proximity was too much!
She opened her eyes wide and quickly sat up from Yan Zhen Guo's embrace.
She glanced outside the car window and saw a three-story hospital building.
So they had arrived at the hospital.
Gu Fuqiao raised her hand to rub her eyes and said, "Let's get off then!"
After saying that, she reached out to open the car door.
But before she could touch the car door, it automatically opened outward.
She saw Cheng Zhang standing outside the car door, embarrassedly holding onto it, saying, "Sis, I'll handle it."
Cheng Zhang looked quite young, seemingly having only worked a few years.
When he noticed Gu Fuqiao looking at him, he chuckled twice before lowering his head in embarrassment.
Gu Fuqiao felt quite fond of such a polite young man, and she smiled softly, "Thank you."
After Gu Fuqiao got out of the car, Yan Zhen Guo followed suit, saying to Cheng Zhang, "You go back first, I'll walk back with your sister-in-law later."
"Yes." Although Cheng Zhang was young, his response to Yan Zhen Guo's instructions was firm and resolute.
He returned to the driver's seat and drove the car away.
Seeing Cheng Zhang leave, Gu Fuqiao asked in puzzlement, "Are we really walking back later?"
Though she wanted to leisurely stroll down the street, in her current state, even walking was a struggle.
The road back to the staff apartment wasn't short.
Walking such a long way back... she feared she'd perish along the way!
"If you can't walk, I'll support you," Yan Zhen Guo said beside her.
Hearing Yan Zhen Guo's words, Gu Fuqiao suddenly recalled what he did when they got on the car!
Gu Fuqiao couldn't help but look at Yan Zhen Guo and said, "Supporting... why not just carry me then!"
Gu Fuqiao thought, if he supported her, he might seize the opportunity to make advances along the way!
A man new to such 'tastes' was terrifying!
Yan Zhen Guo, hearing Gu Fuqiao's words, raised an eyebrow, "Really?"
He had never carried a woman; during training, he had carried sandbags while running.
Back then, fearing the sandbags would fall, his comrades would hold the bags tightly.
Carrying a woman might be similar to carrying sandbags.
However, the feeling should be far better than sandbags.
Gu Fuqiao's thoughts were clearly not aligned with Yan Zhen Guo's.
Upon hearing Yan Zhen Guo's questioning tone, she reconsidered.
In this era, boundaries between men and women were distinct.
Even couples rarely walked the streets hand-in-hand or arm-in-arm.
In the language of this era... it would be called "acting roguishly!"
Forget it, she certainly didn't want to act roguishly in public!
"Then forget it, support me!" In any case, she and Yan Zhen Guo were now husband and wife... a little proximity didn't matter.
Yan Zhen Guo's rugged image was indeed to her liking.
As long as he didn't do anything offensive to the heroine and could earn some favor as the male lead, it would be great.
After Gu Fuqiao spoke, she limped toward the hospital.
This hospital resembled modern rural hospitals, though appearing slightly older.
But Gu Fuqiao knew that it was still in a city's hospital; if it were a rural one, then perhaps...
No, rural areas of this era probably rarely had hospitals.
The hospital's white walls were painted half a meter high with dark green paint, and a pungent smell pervaded the hospital.
The smell was somewhat like formaldehyde but not quite.
After Yan Zhen Guo completed registration and other formalities, he supported Gu Fuqiao to the second floor.
The second floor was gynecology.
Unlike modern hospitals, where gynecology is always crowded, this hospital somehow had few patients.
Once they got upstairs, Gu Fuqiao's name was quickly called.
"Next, Gu Fuqiao."
Yan Zhen Guo sat on the bench outside and said, "I'll be waiting for you outside."
"Uh..." Gu Fuqiao nodded.
Honestly...
Gu Fuqiao had never had a boyfriend before, let alone a gynecological exam.
Visiting gynecology for the first time, she was somewhat nervous.
However, after hearing Yan Zhen Guo's words, she surprisingly relaxed a little.
Does the protagonist aura help with gynecology?
This thought made Gu Fuqiao laugh; if it helped, she wouldn't need to be at the hospital.
Inside the exam room was a stern-looking middle-aged woman, though wearing a lab coat and mask.
She still exuded an air of pressure.
"Where's the discomfort?" The female doctor asked while recording Gu Fuqiao's name on the yellow medical form with a pen.
Gu Fuqiao gritted her teeth, "It's uncomfortable down there; feels like it's peeled."
Though it was embarrassing, it had to be said since the person opposite was a doctor.
"How long has it been? Were you intimate yesterday or today?" The female doctor's words nearly made Gu Fuqiao choke on saliva.
The female doctor's serious demeanor while asking such a question was indeed impressive!
Gu Fuqiao swallowed her saliva and honestly replied, "Not today, yesterday... yes..."
Though she hadn't experienced it herself, it probably happened.
"Alright." The female doctor wrote a few notes in her book and stood up, saying to Gu Fuqiao, "Let's go inside for a look."
Gu Fuqiao nodded and followed the female doctor behind the curtain, only to be dumbfounded.
Behind the curtain was a bed with metal blocks placed on either side.
The female doctor switched on a nearby light, and the examination room became brighter.
She turned to see Gu Fuqiao hadn't moved, and frowned, "Why haven't you taken off your pants?"
