634 The Test Results

"Doctor, is something wrong with Ah-Xin?" her voice came out very softly as if she was scared to hear the answer to this particular question.

"No, his reports are normal."

"Really?" Xiu was in disbelief but was also genuinely happy to hear that.

"However..." her smile vanished when the doctor continued, "I believe Mr. Xin has been disregarding his health lately. Overwork and stress can do serious damage to his mental health in the long run. This is also dangerous for his heart muscles." The doctor spent ten minutes briefing them about Xin Zimen\'s health and Xiu listened attentively.

Xiu straightened up to ask, "Then? What can we do?"

"Proper rest and diet is the basic priority right now."

Xiu patted her chest saying, "You don\'t worry doctor. I\'ll keep an eye on him."

While Xin Zimen pursed his lips, the doctor said, "Right now, someone needs more attention than him."

"Huh?"

"And that\'s you Mrs. Salvay."

Xiu frowned at him, "Me? What\'s wrong with me?"

"Let me call your doctor."

Xiu looked over at Xin Zimen and found him staring at her with worry. Xiu patted his hand in reassurance, "The doctor knows nothing. You don\'t worry about it at all."

"That\'s not very convincing, little lass," replied Xin Zimen feeling fidgety. He hadn\'t felt this anxious in a long time.

Soon a female doctor walked in and greeted both of them. She placed Xiu\'s reports before them she detailed them about her condition. While Xin Zimen\'s brows quirked up, Xiu\'s face was impassive. There was not a single crack in her expressions. One look and one might think the person they were talking about had nothing to do with her.

"We can leave now, right?" that was the first sentence that Xin Zimen heard from her in the last thirty minutes.

The female doctor nodded her head saying, "Yes, you can. But you\'ll have to come back for regular checkups. You have to take your condition seriously."

"Oh, don\'t worry at all. I\'m taking it very seriously," replied Xiu with a forced tug at her lips.

"Wait for me in the car, I\'ll be right back," said Xin Zimen and she nodded in reply. While she went to change back into her clothes, he went back to the female doctor to discuss Xiu\'s condition.

Xiu was leaning against the car when Xin Zimen came out. She was looking particularly at nothing. She just seemed lost.

He came up to her side and hugged her tightly. Xiu was taken aback but didn\'t push him away. Instead, she let his warmth comfort her.

"How are you taking it?" he asked.

"Should we call Regan?" he asked as he pushed her slightly to look at her face. Xiu shook her head in reply. "Why? This is something he should know."

"When did I say, he shouldn\'t know about this?" Her eyes looked straight into his eyes as she went on, "Obviously, he is the first person I want to talk to about this. But let\'s wait till he comes back in the evening."

"And here I thought you didn\'t want to tell him about this," stated Xin Zimen suspiciously.

Xiu chuckled softly in reply, "That\'s true. If I could, I\'d want to keep it a secret for a little longer."

"Why is that?"

"Because I know my husband very well. He is gonna start treating me as a paper doll who is too fragile. I don\'t think I\'d be able to let go of my freedom that soon."

"You value your freedom over your health?"

Xiu nodded her head, "Isn\'t it obvious? I value my freedom more than anything."

"More than your husband?"

Xiu was stumped for words and Xin Zimen smirked.

"Ah-Xin, don\'t play this game with me. Anything would lose before my husband. Even my freedom can\'t be more important than him."

"That\'s exactly what I thought. So, little lass, you have to take care of yourself not for you but for that husband of yours whom you seem to love beyond your own capabilities."

Xiu pouted at him, "Is it that obvious that I love Regan very much?"

Xin Zimen poked her head, "The way you\'re always flaunting your love, it\'d be a surprise if people didn\'t know how much you love him."

Xiu grinned awkwardly, "It\'s not that I don\'t care about other\'s feelings while proclaiming my love everywhere. It\'s just that I know life is very short and I don\'t think this short life is enough for me to show him how much I love him. So, I just try my best before I run out of time to try anything."

Xin Zimen sighed out, "No wonder Francesca said that your love for Regan even makes her feel envious." He took a brief pause before adding, "Shall we leave now?"

"Hmm..." she hummed in reply and got inside the car.

"When is the next appointment?" asked Xin Zimen as they settled in the backseat.

"In two days," she replied plainly. "And I have to bring my husband with me." Then she snickered, "Well, it\'s not like he\'d let me come all on my own."

"How are you gonna tell him?"

"That\'s what I\'m thinking about right now. I don\'t want to freak him out or anything. So, I need to do it very subtly."

"Instead of doing it subtly, just do it simply," said Xin Zimen.

Xiu had thought that this diagnosis would leave her shattered but strangely, she was feeling really calm and peaceful inside her heart. How strange that her own feelings were something she wasn\'t able to grasp at this moment. Except for one feeling... Her longing to see her husband.
