That Girl From Nowhere: Tycoon's Forbidden Sweetheart
Chapter 1108: Refusing the Checkup
Yan Yan casually picked up a shrimp dumpling and placed it in her bowl.
This morning they were eating Cantonese dim sum, which Yun Qiqi usually loves; soup dumplings and shrimp dumplings are her favorites.
However, today the young girl merely paused for a moment before continuing with her own food.
She didn’t glance at him nor at the delicate shrimp dumpling.
This is nearly impossible for Yun Qiqi, who enjoys eating and isn’t picky; she usually finishes what is placed in her bowl.
Yan Yan noticed this and raised an eyebrow.
"Little Gua, are you upset?"
"?" Yun Qiqi looked up, confusion and a hint of bewilderment written in her dark eyes.
She blinked: "No."
Yan Yan looked at her, trying to discern something from her face, but the girl’s gaze was calm, and her small face even had a hint of indifference; there was nothing to be found.
Then Yun Qiqi lowered her head and continued eating.
But today her appetite was unusually small; typically she could eat a lot, yet today she only took a few bites before elegantly wiping her mouth with a napkin.
This surprised not just Yan Yan, but even Wang Ma who was sitting nearby.
"Miss, aren’t you going to eat more?"
Yun Qiqi paused, nodded, and softly responded: "Mm, I’m full."
Wang Ma immediately became anxious, usually she could eat a lot? Could she be feeling unwell today?
No, it can’t be right; she looks quite healthy.
Is the food not good? Did the chef not perform well today?
Wang Ma couldn’t help but glance more at the leftovers on the table, planning to check the kitchen later to see what’s going on.
If the chef is not good, they need to replace him immediately.
Yet Yan Yan didn’t think it was because of this; he remained seated and watched the girl head towards the living room, slightly furrowing his eyebrows.
Yun Qiqi didn’t mind their concerns, after reaching the living room, she sat on the sofa and started watching her favorite anime like before.
Yan Yan finished his meal not long after and sat next to her.
Casually drawing her into his embrace, he said:
"Little Gua, Gu Yixuan will be here soon. After the checkup, what do you want to do? I’m off work this morning, I can accompany you to play or watch a movie."
In his arms, Yun Qiqi instinctively nestled against him, her gaze fixed on the anime playing on the TV screen, and said: "We’ll see when the time comes."
Her reliant gesture didn’t seem fake, nor did it appear that there was anything wrong with her emotions.
Yan Yan raised an eyebrow again; could it simply be that she didn’t have an appetite this morning?
Ten minutes later, Gu Yixuan arrived at the Yan Family.
Since their agreed-upon check-up last time, Gu Yixuan had set aside a whole morning’s time for this, having come over right after breakfast.
Clearly, his interest in Yun Qiqi was unusually high.
Upon arrival, he immediately looked for Yun Qiqi: "I’m here, where’s your little adorable one? Where’s the cutie?"
He walked forward and found Yun Qiqi nestled in Yan Yan’s embrace.
Yan Yan, disinterested in chitchat, paused the anime on TV before leading Yun Qiqi by the hand upstairs to the previously prepared medical room.
Gu Yixuan went into the inner room to prepare the equipment and then came out, saying to them: "Alright, you can come in now."
This had been decided early on entirely for Yun Qiqi’s health and safety to conduct regular check-ups.
Last time, Yun Qiqi was very cooperative; even when she felt a little nervous, she behaved very well.
But today, she stood motionless at the door.
