Chapter 19

I will strictly follow the doctor's orders

When Yang Ding heard this, he was even more anxious than Ye Rou, but he remained calm.

As a time traveler, dealing with hospitals was a common occurrence for him, and he immediately understood the deeper meaning behind the doctor's use of the word "best."

A doctor's priority is to absolve themselves of responsibility to the greatest extent possible. If the patient doesn't ask questions, she won't care whether you want it or not.

But if his wife is anxious, Yang Ding can't be anxious; he can't just keep it to himself.

Ye Rou nudged him. "Mr. Yang, what are you daydreaming about? This isn't just my problem."

Ye Rou felt that her husband would definitely ask the doctor.

Unexpectedly, Yang Ding seemed indifferent, saying, "Wife, let's listen to the doctor."

Ye Rou's big eyes widened, and she immediately became anxious.

"Are you sure? This is five months."

"It's all for the children."

"You weren't like this before."

"Honey, don't be impatient. It's only been five months. Can't you wait?"

"You, me, oh dear, I'm not talking to you anymore. Don't blame me for not warning you later."

When the doctor saw the young couple arguing about it, he knew that the woman was addicted. Just as he was about to say something more, Ye Rou left in anger, and Yang Ding followed her out.

"No, Instructor Ye, don't be in such a hurry..."

Yang Ding caught up with Ye Rou and tried to take her hand, but she shook him off.

"You promised not to touch me."

"Holding hands won't affect the baby, honey. If you really want it, I'll go back and ask the doctor."

"You big idiot! This kind of thing is irrelevant to us girls. I'm mainly worried about you."

"That's good, that's good."

Yang Ding figured that since his wife wouldn't let him touch her anyway, he might as well whet her appetite first, and then ask the doctor after the monthly exam, and that he would have to come for a check-up every week.

The two took the opportunity to slip into the elevator and go to the ninth floor to visit Fang Jing's daughter.

The little girl was not yet two years old and had just learned to speak. When she saw Yang Ding coming over, she opened her little hands and called out, "Daddy, Daddy..."

Fang Jing quickly stopped her, saying, "Don't shout nonsense, this is your godmother's husband, Uncle Yang."

"Daddy, Daddy..."

Fang Dalong was a little jealous. "Sister, why doesn't your daughter call me Dad? I'm a man too."

"You always come in your uniform, which might scare her. Yang Ding has a more approachable face."

Ye Rou wasn't angry. She squatted down and picked up the little girl.

"Calling him 'Dad' isn't wrong either; Uncle Yang is your godfather."

Unexpectedly, the little girl didn't want to be held at all and kept snuggling into Yang Ding's arms.

Yang Ding was caught off guard and had no choice but to take the child away.

The little girl stared straight at him with her big, dark eyes, "Daddy, Daddy..."

"I didn't realize Mr. Yang was so popular with kids," Fang Jing said with a smile.

"Now I can have three children for him without worry."

While Yang Ding was playing with the children, Ye Rou pulled Fang Jing aside and whispered, "Jing-jie, did you have sex during your pregnancy?"

"The first three months and the last three months are not allowed."

"But I'm only five months pregnant, and the doctor said I can't do it at all."

"Just ask. Sometimes doctors just say things casually, waiting for you to bring it up so they can distance themselves from the situation."

"If Yang Ding doesn't mention it, how could I possibly bring it up?"

Fang Jing glanced back at Yang Ding. "Impossible, right? You're so beautiful, how could he resist touching you?"

"He was in such a hurry the other day, but I stopped him. He's acting so strangely today. Do you think he might be thinking of finding a second wife? There are plenty of girls in the 'pig-raising' category who don't have a partner."

"With a wife like you, who would want a woman who's like a pig to keep as a pet?"

Ye Rou doesn't object to Yang Ding having a second wife, but he needs her consent, since he'll be using her money to support him in the future.

She risked her life on the front lines, sending 150 million yuan home every year. Her second wife should at least care about her own flesh and blood.

Watching Yang Ding play with the child, Fang Dalong couldn't help but ask, "Is Ye Rou really pregnant?"

"How could it be fake? I've already picked out a name for the child, Yang Dingtian," Yang Dingtian said, making it up on the spot.

"Will the child take your surname?"

"Should I take your surname?" Yang Ding retorted.

Fang Dalong, realizing he had made a fool of himself, had no choice but to change the subject.

"She invited me to dinner because she wants me to protect you at the Jiangling fish farm?"

"Probably. My wife loves me so much that she's afraid something might happen to me, so this is just unnecessary."

Yang Ding didn't want this guy watching him; he absolutely couldn't let the law enforcement team know that he had killed Xiang Bin.

"Is this unnecessary? Do you know how dire the situation is at the farm?"

"Tell me, how serious is it?"

"The ground around us is full of holes. Those things hide underground and come out at night to steal meat. They not only eat pork, but also human flesh. Many zookeepers have been dragged in, and not even bones or scraps were left."

"Among tens of thousands of farmers, the probability of me getting a turn is extremely low."

That's true; the enforcement team has recently deployed over a thousand people to patrol and guard the farm.

Besides, Fang Dalong was just a lowly soldier in the law enforcement team, with only a first-grade upper realm cultivation level. His skill was even inferior to Yang Ding's, so what help could he possibly offer?

"Since you're so arrogant, then good luck to you."

Yang Ding ignored him and just played with the children.

"Daddy, Daddy..."

"Xuan'er is great, say it again and let me hear it."

"dad."

Fang Dalong couldn't hold back any longer and snatched the child from Yang Ding's hands. "Her father is my brother-in-law, not you."

"Wow……"

Xuan'er suddenly burst into tears. Fang Jing quickly came over, slapped her younger brother hard, and stuffed her daughter into Yang Ding's arms.

"What are you doing? Yang Ding is holding her perfectly well."

"Sis, are you really going to make her call this guy 'Dad'?"

"He is Xuan'er's godfather."

Ye Rou quickly smoothed things over, "Da Long, why are you taking this so seriously? Let's go eat."

"I have to go on a mission, so I won't go for dinner. Your husband is arrogant; he probably doesn't need my protection."

After saying that, Fang Dalong stormed off in a huff.

Just as Ye Rou was about to criticize Yang Ding, Fang Jing pulled her aside and said, "Forget it. If Yang Ding marries you, he'll have to endure the jealousy of all the men in Jiangling City. He'll suffer a lot in the future. You should treat him better instead of criticizing him."

These words awakened Ye Rou, and she said with deep remorse, "If anyone dares to bully my husband, I'll beat him to death."

"You're still too young. The waters of Jiangling City run deep."

"Don't worry, Sister Jing, my wife treats me very well, and I won't let anyone bully us or the children."

"Your husband is becoming more and more manly," Fang Jing praised.

Whether he has the ability or not is another matter, but at least Yang Ding has the will.

Because Fang Dalong ran away out of jealousy, the three of them ate something quick outside and then went back to their dormitory to rest.

After Fang Jing left with the child, Ye Rou tentatively asked, "Mr. Yang, I don't think you're very interested in me anymore. If we take a nap together, you should be able to control yourself, right?"

I will follow the doctor's advice.

"Okay, you should keep your word."

Ye Rou was so angry that she went to the bathroom to change into her little tank top and short skirt, revealing her long, straight legs, and she even put on some perfume.

"Honey, it's still noon. Aren't you dressed a bit too much?"

"Anyway, you can control yourself, so what are you afraid of?"

Ye Rou smiled gently and snuggled into the covers.
