Time flowed like water, rushing forward.
In the blink of an eye, Qiao En was already five months pregnant.
She was still slim, but now showed signs of pregnancy.
That morning, it was time for her prenatal checkup.
Zhou Jin'an had specifically made time to accompany Qiao En to the hospital.
Since having this child, the scent of home on him had grown stronger.
During the fasting blood draw, Zhou Jin'an stood by Qiao En's side, his large hand covering her eyes.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here!"
Qiao En felt like she was being treated like a child.
"I'm not afraid."
She said bravely, smiling.
Zhou Jin'an crouched down, his tall frame bending to whisper in her ear, "When I was little, I was terrified of blood tests, it scared me every time. Then, Rong Ma would cover my eyes with her hand and tell me that it wouldn't hurt if I didn't look."
"Does it really not hurt then?"
Qiao En asked curiously.
Zhou Jin'an nodded earnestly, "Yeah, it really didn't hurt as much."
