This was the second time she was making such a question.
Although she had said it on impulse, she stared at him after saying so.
It was because she was scared that she would regret it in the future if she didn’t find out about the answer.
Qiao Lian had always been resolute in the things she did, she rarely beat around the bush.
If it had been according to her usual behaviour, she would have definitely not tested and asked him so many times. She would have just left.
However, she had realized that she didn’t bear to do that to Shen Liangchuan.
What if he wanted to start something with her after spending one month together?
Since a young age, she had liked to take the initiative and go after her happiness.
Just like with Zi Chuan years ago. She had been the one who confessed.
And just like now…
She nervously bit her lips and looked at Shen Liangchuan with anticipation.
He obviously looked unaffected. If she hadn’t confirmed that there was something wrong with the milk, Qiao Lian wouldn’t have been able to tell anything from his expressionless and reactionless face!
He didn’t speak. He just stood on the stop and stared at her in the dim room.
Qiao Lian couldn’t help but tighten her fists when seeing his obscure expression.
And then she laughed mockingly at herself.
See? She was overthinking again.
Even if he stopped asking her to take the birth control medicine, could she forgive the pain he had inflicted on her?
Would she forgive his past and get together with him?
After thinking through, she realized that she actually looked forward to it.
But this thought of hers was extremely low and degrading.
She lowered her head and stopped looking at his expression. After she put the phone under the pillow, intending to lie down, she heard his voice, “Why?”
Why?
Qiao Lian grabbed finger.
If she told him that there was birth control medicine in the milk and she didn’t want to take it, was it the same as telling him that she wanted to give birth to his child?
She wanted to keep the last bit of her dignity and replied, “I just simply dislike it.”
Five words. It was resolute and direct.
And surprisingly, Shen Liangchuan was slightly stunned.
Since they had met each other, she had always been really careful in front of him. It was really rare to see this side of her.
And she didn’t like to drink milk.
That was true.
She remembered that eight years ago, she would complain to him every night saying, “Ahhh, my mom is giving me milk again!”
He himself wasn’t picky with food.
He thought that milk was good for his body, hence he would drink a cup daily.
But she would always rant, “It’s so annoying to have to drink it every night! I feel like vomiting whenever I see milk now.”
He would reply, “Drama queen!”
She would immediately get angry and retort, “Why are you so insensitive! I want you to appease me now.”
She had always been like this. She would clearly state what she wanted and what she didn’t.
It had allowed him to feel her sincerity, even though they had only talked online.
It wasn’t until the end that reality gave him a huge blow.
When this thought emerged in his mind, his gaze dimmed as he stared at the person on the bed.
The woman lay there, scrunched up. His heart softened as he watched her.
He pursed his lips and recalled what the caretaker had said, “Although this medicine is barely harmful to the body…”
But since it was a birth control medicine, it would be somewhat harmful.
Qiao Lian curled in her blanket and stopped looking at him.
After she had said those resolute words, she felt wronged and like crying.
Deep in her heart, she quietly despised herself. Qiao Lian, what are you still expecting!?
Just when she was about to cry, she heard his emotionless voice saying, “Ok.”
