Chapter 403 Kidney Deficiency


    “Pfft.” Stephen couldn’t hold back augh that announced his presence. In the next second, he was coldly stared at by Jeffrey,


    causing him to quickly lean back into the sofa.


    “No need to be embarrassed. Judging by your appearance, you''re deficient in vitality. No wonder it’s so hard for me to hope for a


    great-grandson,” Madam Morgan dered, picking up her phone and sending a message to someone.


    “Grandma, isn’t your eldest great-grandson here?” Jeffrey asked helplessly.


    “Him?” Madam Morgan nced at Stephen, who was holding a pillow and not sitting properly, and shook her head. “This child is


    a waste! | want a great-grandson who | can teach properly. If it’s a great-granddaughter, that’s even better. If she’s as beautiful


    and clever as Mnie, I''ll pass on my lifelong knowledge of fashion to her!”


    “Granny, daughters usually look like their dad,” Jeffrey said, a smile ying on his lips. He really wanted a daughter.


    “What do you know? As daughters grow older, they be more like their moms!” Madam Morgan turned back to re at


    Jeffrey. “Why say so much? With your kidney deficiency, how can | have a great-grandson?”Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    “Pfft!” This time, Mnie couldn''t hold back herughter. She threw her head back, andughed.


    “Be careful.” Jeffrey, however, didn’t me her for finding his situation amusing. He was busy taking care of her, afraid that she


    might strain herself.


    “Be careful of what?” Madam Morgan was extremely sensitive, and started scrutinizing Mnie.


    “My back has been bothering metely,” Mnie exined hastily.


    Seeing that she didn’t intend to tell anyone, Jeffrey cooperated with her. “Yes, she’s too busy. Because she


    has to sit for a long time, it hurts her back.”


    “You''re really making me worry. One of you has a back problem, while the other has a kidney problem,” Madam Morgan said,


    putting down her phone. “I found an old friend who’s a traditional medicine practitioner. |


    asked him toe and prescribe some supplements.”


    Jeffrey brought Mnie and Stephen back together, so Madam Morgan was delighted. The family enjoyed a reunion dinner. Not


    long after, a servant brought the old traditional medicine practitioner to them.


    After a brief wee, Madam Morgan urged Jeffrey to get up and move aside. “This is my grandson. His


    kidneys aren’t well. Check his pulse for me.”


    “| don’t need it!” Jeffrey red fiercely, conserving his dignity.


    The old man shook his head repeatedly. “I''ve seen too many young people as stubborn as you. Although


    you''re young, kidney deficiency is not umon. What''s there to be embarrassed about? Come on, young


    man, give me your hand.”


    “Pfft!” Mnie couldn’t help butugh.

    This was the first time she heard someone refer to Jeffrey as a young man. No matter how she looked at him, she didn’t think it


    was the right word to describe him.


    Stephen was alsoughing gleefully on the side. Jeffrey stared at him icily.


    Suppressing herughter, Mnie pushed Jeffrey forward gently. “Let him check you.” After saying that, she even winked at him.


    She just wanted him to cover for her. That would prevent Madam Morgan from asking the traditional medicine practitioner to


    check her pulse. If that happened, her pregnancy would be exposed.


    After Mnie spoke, Jeffrey obediently extended his wrist.


    While checking his pulse, the old traditional medicine practitioner stroked his beard, talking incessantly.


    “Giving birth is not a one-person affair. Your vigor is indeed deficient. | guess both of you have encountered some problems in


    normal times, right?”


    Jeffrey was annoyed, and frowned. “What problems?”


    “Intimacy must not be going smoothly, right?” the old man stated bluntly.


    “Pfft...!” Mnie wished she could spurt blood. The old man was so direct.


    Jeffrey''s face darkened. Seeing him remain silent, Madam Morgan and the traditional medicine practitioner


    both turned their heads to look at Mnie, gesturing for her to speak.


    “Well...” Mnie stammered.


    “Alright, | understand.”


    Before Mnie could say anything further, the old man stroked his beard, nodded, and released Jeffrey''s wrist.


    “The girl is embarrassed to speak up, but the expression suggests ack in marital rtions... For a young man to be in such a


    state, talking about the quality of marital rtions is pointless.”


    Not far away on the sofa, Stephan burst intoughter.


    Jeffrey''s face turned red. If it weren’t for him being injured and losing blood repeatedly, how could he be deficient in vigor and


    have a kidney deficiency?


    He pursed his lips tightly. At this moment, he wished he could pick her up, point at her stomach, and show everyone that she was


    pregnant, setting the record straight for his reputation!
