Chapter 134 Pre-wedding Anxiety

These two knowledge skills together cost 40 achievement points.

Shen Wancheng wanted to laugh when she saw that her achievement points balance was 30. When she first got this achievement system, she thought she could easily become a real all-around genius.

I only realized now that it's not easy to earn these achievement points. Shen Wancheng only had over 100 achievement points once, and she used them immediately.

Shen Wancheng wondered what kind of achievement she would need to attain to suddenly have hundreds of achievement points.

After exchanging for the ability, Shen Wancheng was lost in thought for a while before leaving.

When Shen Yao got home that evening, Shen Wancheng told her that she was going to the hospital for a prenatal checkup the next day, going shooting in the afternoon, and going to South Africa the day after tomorrow.

Without Shen Wancheng even asking, Shen Yao excitedly went back to her room to pack her clothes.

Shen Yao never expected that Shen Wancheng would not take her along.

Shen Wancheng could only shake her head helplessly as she watched Shen Yao, who was as happy as a child.

The next morning, Gu Jinxing went to Shen Wancheng's residence to pick her up and take her to the hospital.

Shen Yao, who cared about Shen Wancheng, naturally wanted to go with them.

Gu Jinxing was very farsighted; he had his driver take a Lincoln limousine today, which had four seats in the back, thus avoiding the problem of Shen Yao needing to drive two cars when she came along.

Shen Wancheng had an ultrasound examination during her last prenatal checkup, and the fetal heartbeats and embryos of all three babies could be seen, with the fetal heartbeats being normal.

Shen Wancheng came to check on the situation on short notice this time, so she didn't have the doctor do an ultrasound; she only listened to the fetal heartbeat to see if it was normal.

To Shen Wancheng's surprise, the NT scan, which is a must-do for prenatal checkups in later generations, was already available in Hong Kong at this time.

This test is mainly for screening fetuses with Down syndrome.

The birth of a child with Down syndrome is a tragedy for a family. If it can be detected in the early stages of pregnancy, allowing the pregnant woman to terminate the pregnancy in time, it can not only prevent a family's misfortune but also minimize the harm to the pregnant woman's body.

Some people might say that there weren't as many prenatal checkups in the past, and their parents' generation had several children without any problems.

But can you only look at your own family when it comes to this kind of thing?

In the rural areas of the 1970s and 80s, which village didn't have a few idiots?

Many of those mentally challenged people are children with Down syndrome.

Although Shen Wancheng had never experienced pregnancy and childbirth in her previous life, she still knew these basic medical facts. She was not averse to these prenatal checkups at all and completed them all as required by the doctor.

The test results came out in less than an hour.

everything is normal.

The only thing that made Shen Wancheng feel uncomfortable and awkward was that the doctors and nurses at the hospital all addressed her as Mrs. Gu.

She and Gu Jinxing are not engaged yet. Although she refers to Gu Jinxing as her fiancé when necessary, Shen Wancheng is still not used to being called Mrs. Gu.

This way of addressing her made her feel like she had aged several years for no reason.

This reminded Shen Wancheng of her previous life when she was a corporate slave and heard her colleagues complain that the first time she felt uncomfortable after getting married was when she filled out her personal information form and wrote "married" in the marital status section.

Her colleague described the feeling as very strange; for a moment, she felt different, as if she had lost something.

Shen Wancheng felt that being called "Mrs. Gu" by the doctors and nurses repeatedly today had triggered her pre-wedding anxiety.

Gu Jinxing also keenly noticed that Shen Wancheng had become much quieter since leaving the hospital that morning.

Although Shen Wancheng usually doesn't talk much, Gu Jinxing sensed that Shen Wancheng's mood seemed a bit off.

Instead of having lunch at the club owned by Gu Jinxing, Gu Jinxing made a reservation at another Cantonese restaurant.

This restaurant serves exceptionally authentic Cantonese cuisine, with a perfect balance of color, aroma, and flavor.

The three of them ordered eight dishes, and they ate them all.

Shen Yao praised Gu Jinxing several times, saying that he had good taste.

But Shen Wancheng, who shared the same taste as Shen Yao, said nothing.

After the meal, they went directly to a shooting range outside the city.

Upon arrival, Shen Yao excitedly walked at the front, partly because she was genuinely interested in guns, and partly because she didn't want to be a third wheel between Shen Wancheng and Gu Jinxing.

Shen Wancheng walked beside Gu Jinxing's wheelchair, which was being pushed by Cheng Ming.

Gu Jinxing asked Shen Wancheng.

Are you in a bad mood?

Shen Wancheng answered truthfully, "Um... a little."

"Everything was fine when I left home this morning. Are you worried about the baby's development? Didn't the checkup results show everything was normal?"

Shen Wancheng stopped and looked down at Gu Jinxing in the wheelchair.

I endured it again and again.

Shen Wancheng couldn't help herself.

She waved for Cheng Ming to step aside before finally speaking her mind.

"Gu Jinxing, I'm afraid of marriage. Can we... not... postpone our wedding?"

Shen Wancheng originally wanted to ask if they could postpone the wedding, but when she met Gu Jinxing's increasingly intense gaze, she changed her mind and asked to postpone the wedding.

But Gu Jinxing still grabbed Shen Wancheng's hand and questioned her.

"why?"

Gu Jinxing recalled what he had done today and really couldn't understand what he had done wrong that made Shen Wancheng suddenly want to back out.

Gu Jinxing said repeatedly.

"If I do anything that offends or makes you uncomfortable, you can tell me, and I will absolutely prevent the same thing from happening again."

"I can agree to anything you want, except for marriage. Once you've agreed, you can't go back on your word."

Shen Wancheng tried to free her hand from Gu Jinxing's grasp, but she wasn't strong enough.

"You're hurting me, Gu Jinxing."

Seeing that there were obvious red marks on Shen Wancheng's wrist, Gu Jinxing had no choice but to let go of her.

Gu Jinxing pressed for more information.

"What exactly made you angry and made you want to call off the wedding?"

"I...."

Shen Wancheng opened her mouth, but couldn't find the words to say.

"Never mind, just pretend I didn't say anything. I'm just a little anxious about getting married."

After saying this, Shen Wancheng left Gu Jinxing behind and strode towards the shooting range.

Pre-wedding anxiety?

What kind of illness is this? Does this illness even exist?

Gu Jinxing thought to himself, his brows furrowing involuntarily.

Cheng Ming, who was not far away, saw Shen Wancheng leave first and immediately guessed that his boss and his wife must have had a fight.

He thought that the boss still had to be "limping" and couldn't catch up with the boss's wife.

So he immediately walked quickly to Gu Jinxing's side.

"Mr. Gu, shouldn't you go after Miss Shen right away?"

Gu Jinxing looked at Cheng Ming and asked him.

"You know a lot?"

Cheng Ming paused for a moment before speaking.

"Isn't that how it always is? When men and women argue, no matter who is right or wrong, the man will always be the one to appease first and then admit his mistake. He's never wrong."

Gu Jinxing remained silent and continued to question Cheng Ming.

"You seem to know a lot about this, so tell me what premarital anxiety is?"

Cheng Ming, “…”

this....

He's not the one getting married, so how would he know?

He doesn't even have a girlfriend yet.

Cheng Ming forced himself to speak.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Gu, I don't know what wedding anxiety is."

Gu Jinxing withdrew his gaze and said coldly.

"Then why are you spouting nonsense?"
