Su Qianxun stared at the pregnancy testing stick and said nothing. Gu Mian leaned over and took a look at it. “What does it mean?””
“It seems like this stick isn’t working, right?” Su Qianxun looked at her.
“It seems like it… we should’ve known better and bought more of these!” Gu Mian knocked herself on the head with force. As it turned out, something as simple as getting a pregnancy test required adequate preparation and experience.
“Never mind that. I’ll get a medical checkup after the New Year holiday. We’ll know the result then.”
Just as Su Qianxun lifted the testing stick, she spotted Ke Ran standing at the bathroom door. Driven by the subconscious, she quickly hid the pregnancy testing stick behind her back.
“Why are the two of you inside the bathroom? I have a stomach ache and I want to use the bathroom,” Ke Ran smiled and asked.
“Alright. We’re heading out now.” Gu Mian dragged Su Qianxun out and left.
After Ke Ran closed the door, Su Qianxun and Gu Mian exchanged glances. They saw a hint of doubt in each other’s eyes.
The two of them disposed of the testing stick and immediately headed to the lecture hall.
“So many terrible things had happened lately. I think I’m getting very paranoid and slowly losing my mind. It’s impossible that Ke Ran is scheming against me as well.” Su Qianxun shook her head.
“Um, I think so too. Ke Ran is such a good person. She has been very nice to us. She can’t possibly be like Bai Weimi.”
After her classes, Long Sijue came to fetch Su Qianxun with his driver. However, he appeared quite busy. He had been working on his laptop since Su Qianxun got into the vehicle.
Su Qianxun sneaked a glance at him every now and then. She had been mulling over a question: if she was indeed pregnant, and when the baby was born, would he love this child?
Su Qianxun suddenly recalled that she had a Childbirth Agreement with him. Once the baby was born, she and Long Sijue would go back to being strangers. She would have to leave him by then.
She would have to leave her baby too…
When Su Qianxun thought of that, she suddenly felt as if a blade was stabbing at her heart repeatedly. That feeling was worse than pain.
Long Sijue sensed that something was off. His fingers froze on the keyboard. He furrowed his brows as he stared at her and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Su Qianxun immediately snapped out of her reverie. She looked at him and quickly shook her head. Still, her heart was broken and in great pain. Long Sijue furrowed his eyebrows slightly. He lifted the young woman and sat her down on his lap. He held her chin in his hand, gazed at her and asked, “What’s wrong, really?”
“Ah Jue, why do you want me to give birth to your child?” Su Qianxun suddenly stared at him with a serious expression and asked.
Long Sijue held his breath sharply. He immediately looked down at her lower abdomen and blurted out, “Are you pregnant?”
Su Qianxun quickly shook her head. “No, no, not yet!”
Hearing her reply, Long Sijue was uncertain if he should be disappointed or relieved. Anyway, there were a lot of conflicting emotions within him. Therefore, the look in his eyes became very complex as he stared at the young woman.
Su Qianxun noticed his expression. She furrowed her eyebrows and asked, “Do you wish I were pregnant? Do you want a baby very badly?”
Long Sijue gazed at her without a word. Su Qianxun bit her lower lip and asked again, “Would you love the baby? Would you love our baby? Is it true that… I would have to leave once I gave birth to him or her? When I finally do, can I take a look at the baby?”
As Su Qianxun spoke, she felt an immense sadness. There was a tinge of sourness in her eyes and she was about to tear up. A while ago, she kept hoping to get pregnant soon and give birth to the child so that she could draw the boundary between her and Long Sijue. She would be able to leave him and regain her freedom…
But she did not know why the thought of that at this moment would upset her so much… She was so heartbroken that she could die of grief any second.
“After I gave birth to the baby, can I take a look at him or her?”
Su Qianxun gazed at him with a careful and eager look on her face. She felt as though a hand was squeezing her heart and she could hardly breathe.
