“Xuxu, I suddenly thought of something. I drank alcohol afterward. So I can’t have these three babies, right?” Zhou Shuang stroked her belly and turned around to Xuxu. She looked worried.
“I have no idea as well.” Xuxu shook her head as she glanced at Zhou Shuang. She warned, “From now on, no more drinking or smoking until you’ve decided on how you want to settle them.”
Even if she doesn’t want them, she still needed to treat them with care as long as they were inside her belly.
‘Sigh!’
Xuxu raised her head and lamented to herself helplessly. Unless they had difficulties, nobody should abort their child.
She wondered how a mother would feel lying on the operating table. What would be on her mind?
When she laid on the operating table, she felt excruciating pain and agony.
“Of course I know this,” Zhou Shuang impatiently answered. “Can you tell me how I am so unlucky to be in such a situation?”
Xuxu tightly pressed her lips and kept mum.
‘How could this be necessarily a bad thing?’
It wasn’t entirely a bad thing. However. maybe, in the future, would she feel different?
Zhou Shuang forbade Xuxu to ever mention about the babies, and yet she ruefully sighed repeatedly in the car. She had no idea what to do, and this somehow troubled and confused her.
Xuxu could understand how Zhou Shuang was feeling right now. She was such a carefree and free-spirited woman. She had an accidental one-night stand with a man and ended up on terms of not seeing him ever again. But how ironic it was that she got pregnant with his child!
How could she not feel depressed?
Xuxu suggested, “Maybe you should have a talk with my mother. She is smart and experienced, and perhaps she will have a solution for you. What do you think?”
Xuxu’s suggestion tempted Zhou Shuang. Perhaps it was a good idea to seek another person’s opinion other than just Xuxu.
But she still had some reservations. “Do you think it will work?”
Xuxu understood her concerns and nodded to reassure her. “Yes, it’ll be fine. She wouldn’t blabber.”
“Alright then,” Zhou Shuang agreed readily. “Let’s seek Professor Mu for some advice.”
…
Zhou Shuang and Xuxu retold the entire story to Mu Li, and the latter fell silent for a long while. She pressed her palm to her forehead and heaved a sigh. “Your situation is a little sensitive.”
She mumbled under her breath. “You have three at one go. Why do we only have two?”
Even though she spoke with a soft tone, Xuxu and Zhou Shuang still heard her. Both of them frowned and threw her long, calculating look as they remained speechless with her remark.
Was this her main point? The most important thing right now was to find a solution for Zhou Shuang!
She had lamented the fact that her daughter-in-law was pregnant with only twins. How could she?!
“Aunt Mu, what should I do? I can’t tell my parents. But I’m carrying triplets. I can’t bear to abort them.” Zhou Shuang grabbed Mu Li’s arms anxiously.
Mu Li frowned. “That goes without saying. If I were you, there is no way I could abort them too.”
Did she think anyone could carry triplets?
If only Xuxu was carrying triplets, she might die of happiness.
This lass was still grumbling and complaining. Heavens have disappointed them with their imprudent planning.
“So you are saying that I should give birth to them?” Zhou Shuang pursed her lips as her face sank. “But I’m not married yet and these three burdens will be with me. Who will want to marry me in the future? Or am I destined to live alone with these three fellows for the rest of my life?”
