My Evil Genius Wife

” Han Zihao. Don’t you think you’re going a bit over with your obsession with my health? How can you admit me to the hospital just for a simple sprain in the ankle? Are you serious?” Xu Nuan was shocked when she found out that rather than taking her to the emergency room, he admitted her to the hospital for a day.

That too, the VIP room!! It feels more like a luxurious hotel than a hospital. It feels so unfair to use this kind of perfect room for a day, just for a sprained ankle.

Han Zihao, who just came into the room, after instructing Feng Sheng to cancel all of his schedules for the day and also contact Tan Tan to clear Xu Nuan’s appointments as well, said while sitting on the couch in the room, ” And I told you that we aren’t going back home without doing a full-body check up on you.”

Xu Nuan: “...”

Xu Nuan sighed heavily as she cannot defeat him in terms of words and stubbornness. ” Fine. You better buy me an expensive meal at Jade Hotel if there is nothing wrong with the reports.”

Han Zihao grinned to see her surrendering to him and said, ” Anytime! If you want, I can give the hotel to you. You keep it.”

.....

” No thanks. Only the food will do.” Xu Nuan said tiredly as she cannot even joke with him. Because he takes every word of her so seriously. She wouldn’t be surprised if he came to her tomorrow with the papers of Jade Hotel in her name.

In the morning –

” Here’s your breakfast.”

Xu Nuan purses her lips to see the breakfast in front of her and frowns. ” Are you seriously gonna feed me hospital food? It doesn’t even taste good.” Xu Nuan wanted to cry as she is perfectly fine yet he is still trying to feed her the food that is meant to be for patients.

” You’re in a hospital, that’s why you’re getting hospital food. When you will be discharged from here, I will treat you to something good.”

” Promise?” Xu Nuan squinted at Han Zihao who was sitting on the couch in the room and was reading a newspaper. He looked up at her upon hearing her grumpy voice and laughed before agreeing to her promise.

” It’s a promise. Now eat.” He said after finally convincing her to eat the hospital food.

After Xu Nuan was done with the breakfast and Han Zihao was removing the food tray from the small food table on the bed when the door of the hospital room was pushed open, ” Han Zihao, How mean can you be?”

” Why don’t you ever tell me anything? Do you know how worried I was when I heard that Xu Nuan had been admitted to the hospital?” Grandmother Han, who had just entered the hospital room, scolded Han Zihao for not informing her about it and went straight to Xu Nuan.

Han Zihao sighed heavily to see his noisy, overdramatic Grandmother in hospital and asked, ” How did you find out about it?”

Grandmother Han, who was caressing Xu Nuan’s hair lovingly, her hands halted in the action as she cleared her throat before saying, ” What kind of question is this? How can I not know about my future-grand-daughter-in-law being admitted to the hospital?”

” Grandma, Don’t play word games with me. Who told you about it?” Han Zihao asked coldly. There aren’t many people who know about Xu Nuan being admitted to the hospital and he had strictly stopped anyone from saying anything to anyone.

” It was me. I wasn’t planning to tell mother about it but as we were talking about other things, it just slipped out of my mouth.” Cheng Zixing, who followed Grandmother Han into the hospital room confessed honestly. She was a bit ashamed and embarrassed after what happened yesterday, but she cannot avoid Han Zihao forever because of this.

They’re family after all. Even though she made a mistake by being in contact with Su Xinyue, which Han Zihao doesn’t like, it’s better to admit to her mistakes and move on.

” Ah...Ah...Stop glaring at her. It was me who pushed her to the edge to spill the beans. ” Grandmother Han defended Cheng Zixing upon seeing Han Zihao’s gloomy expressions.

Although Cheng Zixing has done some upsetting things in the past few days, this time it was indeed not her fault.

” Also, it was your secretary who gave me the name of the hospital and room number.” Grandmother Han told the secret to Han Zihao to distract his attention from Cheng Zixing.

However, while saving her from Han Zihao’s fluctuating mood, she pushed the poor secretary into the middle of the road to be hit by a truck.

” Feng Sheng....” Han Zihao gritted his teeth and wanted to kick him out of the office immediately. How can he tell Grandma everything? From whom does he take the paycheck?

” Also, were you planning to hide it from me forever? Why can I not know about Su Xinyue?” Grandmother snapped at Han Zihao, seeing the way he was trying to hide things away from her.

” That woman is good for nothing. She never cared about you when you were young, how dare she come and interfere in your life now? How dare she hurt my grand-daughter in law! I will not let that woman live in peace.”

Xu Nuan was surprised to see Grandmother Han so angry. She scolds Han Liang all the time but her scoldings are more like a way of expressing her love than anger. However, while talking about Su Xinyue, she seems to be really upset and angry.

” Mother! Let’s not talk about it.” Cheng Zixing tried to calm her but Grandmother Han jerked her hand away, ” What mother? And who told you to go and meet that stupid woman? That’s what happens if you stay in the company of scheming people like hers. No doubt you were starting to speak like hers. Hmph.”

After badmouthing Su Xinyue, Grandmother Han was finally feeling better, and turned to Xu Nuan who was now staring at her with a nervous smile, ” Xu Nuan, my child! How are you feeling now? Did the doctor say anything? Is your injury serious?”

” Grandma, I am absolutely fine. The doctor said that it’s just a minor sprain and there is no use getting an X-ray for it. However, he is overreacting and asked the doctor to do a full body check-up on me. That’s why I am stuck here in the hospital.”

” I don’t know how many times I have been admitted to this hospital by now. Even the nurses smile at me and talk to me as if I am their regular customer.” Xu Nuan complained to Grandmother Han and wanted her to put some sense into her Grandson. Only she can save her from this Hospital Freak.

However, things didn’t go the way she was expecting them to go.

Grandma Han smiled at Xu Nuan grumbling and complaining about Han Zihao and caressed her hair gently, ” Child, Don’t speak like that. Although he is indeed stupid when it comes to many things, he did the right thing this time.”

” It’s for your health after all. We cannot take any chances with your health. Also, didn’t the doctor tell you to take more care of yourself because of your weak constitution?”

” See! Even Grandma agrees to me.” Han Zihao remarked and smirked to see Xu Nuan’s pouting expressions.

Just as they were talking with each other, the head doctor came to announce the results of the report along with the assistant doctor and a nurse.

” Doctor, Is everything alright? There is no problem with the reports, right?” Han Zihao asked worriedly as he stood next to Xu Nuan. Remembering how she was complaining about being tired and exhausted all the time, he couldn’t help but worry about the results.

Just like Han Zihao, Grandmother Han and Cheng Zixing were also looking at the doctor anxiously, waiting for him to announce the results.

” Absolutely. The reports are perfectly fine. There is nothing to be worried about.” The doctor assured everyone, allowing everyone to sigh in relief.

” See. Didn’t I tell you? There is nothing wrong with me. You were overreacting.” Xu Nuan nudged Han Zihao and poked him in the waist.

” I was simply being cautious.” Han Zihao retorted, at which Xu Nuan couldn’t help rolling her eyes at him.

Seeing the couple bickering like this, the doctor smiled and said, ” There is nothing to worry about the results. However, there is something to be congratulated about.”

It was at that moment that Xu Nuan felt her heart stop beating. ‘No way!! It isn’t, right?’

She couldn’t help but think about the words that Aurora had said to her yesterday. It can’t be possible, right? She wondered while waiting for the doctor to burst the bomb on her.

While Han Zihao and the others were confused about what the doctor was talking about, Xu Nuan’s proud smile faded in an instant.

The head doctor noticed the change in Xu Nuan’s expressions and asked curiously, ” Ms. Xu, did you know about it?”

“Ah? What...is it? I...don’t know anything!” Xu Nuan laughed awkwardly and put a halt to all of his questions. She couldn’t believe that the doctor was playing the ‘tell me the truth’ game with her.

” Doctor, what is it? Is there something wrong?” Han Zihao asked again worriedly.

The head doctor looked at Xu Nuan and said, ” Ms. Xu, Mr. Han, Congratulations!. You both are going to be parents.”

” Ms. Xu is pregnant!”
