Stealing Your Heart Chapter 732
The next morning, Qin Ya arrived at the hospital with a fruit basket. It was common courtesy to prepare a gift when visiting an elder at the hospital.
Grandma Su had barely slept a wink last night. How could she have accepted their relationship so easily?
It was because she felt guilty that she had allowed them to be together. Besides, she reckoned that her inability to have children was treatable.
If she could look that flawless after plastic surgery, then it wouldn’t a problem to get her ‘infertility’ n treated.
She told Qin Ya to visit her because she wanted her to get a checkup at the hospital.
Given the advancement of medical standards, she was confident that Qin Ya would be able to conceive if she met the right doctor.
If all else fails, she could accept in vitro fertilization, as long as it was Su Zhan’s child.
Qin Ya knocked on the door and it was Su Zhan who answered it. He quickly took over the fruit basket from her and asked softly, “Have you eaten?”
“I did before stopping by,” Qin Ya said.
“Come on in,” Su Zhan said, directing her inside.
“Come here, Ya. Sit next to me.” Grandma Su beckoned her.
Qin Ya walked up to her. She was surprised that the latter had accepted her and was a little grateful inside. After all, she knew how much Grandma Su wanted a great-grandchild.
“Grandma.”
“Hey.” Grandma Su grabbed her hand and lamented, “Look how thin you’ve gotten. Things must’ve been hard on you, huh?”
Qin Ya’s eyelids drooped. “It’s all in the past now.”
Grandma Su patted her hands and said, “Don’t be scared. I’m here now.”
Just then, there was a knock on the door. Su Zhan went to open the door, thinking that it was the doctors doing their morning rounds.
Yet standing at the door was a doctor unfamiliar to him.
“You are?” Su Zhan asked.
“I’m Dr. Chen.”
“Dr. Chen, please come in,” Grandma Su called out from the inside.
Su Zhan looked back at his grandmother. “What’s going on?”
I didn’t ask for a change of doctor. The doctor who’s examining Grandma is at the top of his class. There’s no need for another doctor to check on Grandma.
“This is Dr. Chen. He specializes in infertility treatment. I’ve invited him over to take a look at Ya. We’re more than capable of finding the best doctor to treat Ya,” Grandma Su said, thinking that she was doing Su Zhan and Qin Ya a favor.
“Ya, I can explain.” Su Zhan chased after her. “I didn’t know Grandma would call the doctor. Please don’t take it to heart…”
“I didn’t. There’s a problem with me in the first place. What’s there for me to be angry about?”
She looked pointedly at Su Zhan. “It hurts to have my flaws exposed in front of others. Do you know how I feel?”
“I know,” Su Zhan said. “That’s why I never told Grandma that you’re Qin Ya because I was afraid she would bring that up in front of you and stress you out. I’m sorry. I didn’t handle it well.”
“Go back inside. I really need to go.” Qin Ya sniffled, holding back her tears. “Whether it can be handled or not, just tell me on the phone and don’t look for me in the meantime. I want to be alone.”
“I’m sorry,” Su Zhan muttered.
Qin Ya pursed her lips and exited the hospital.
Su Zhan ruffled his hair in frustration, feeling as though he had fallen into the abyss from heaven.
He had envisioned many wonderful things for the future yesterday, including a romantic marriage proposal for Qin Ya.
Yet today…
He pivoted on his heels and walked back to the ward when he heard Grandma Su talking to the doctor.
Grandma Su was taken aback by Qin Ya’s reaction. She seemed to have understood what it meant, but she refused to accept the truth, hoping that the doctor could enlighten her. “W-What does it mean to have no uterus?”
