Chapter 579: Accidental Pregnancy (29)
I should have had my period last month, but after the kidnapping and my mother’s subsequent accident, I’d completely forgotten about it…
And now almost a month has passed, and I’m not feeling any signs that it’s coming any time soon. It should have started by now…
No wonder I’ve felt so unwell these past few days. I couldn’t put my finger on it—I thought it was just stress from dealing with Liang Doukou—but now that I think about it… instead…
As these thoughts surfaced in her mind, she could hear her heartbeat drumming in her ears.
It can’t be just a coincidence, can it? While we’ve been physically intimate a few times, there was only one time when I hadn’t used protection. Was it actually that one time that made me pregnant?
…
On her way home from work, Qin Zhi’ai dropped by the 24/7 pharmacy and bought a few pregnancy test kits.
Consumed by worry and conflicting emotions, she was fully drained by the time she reached home.
Changing into a pair of slippers, she leaned against the wall and stood there for a moment before taking her bag and walking into the bathroom.
Although Xu Wennuan had yet to come home and Qin Zhi’ai was the only one in the apartment, she still locked the bathroom door.
As she held onto the test kits, her hands trembled from the overwhelming stress and, with much effort, she eventually ripped open the packaging of all the kits and strips at once.
……
Qin Zhi’ai waited anxiously for the results of the tests. She had never been so afraid before.
The mere few minutes felt as long as a century to her.
Seized with anxiety, she could hear her pulse vibrating within her ears in the silent bathroom.
Finally, the results appeared on the test strips, which she had laid out in a row.
On the first strip, two clear red lines and the word “Pregnant” appeared on the digital screen.
On the second one, there were also two clear red lines and the word “Pregnant.”
She observed the same on the third strip, and on the fourth, the fifth, and the sixth…
The results were the same on all seven test strips.
Although she had considered that she might be pregnant when her period had become long overdue, seeing the results on all the test strips made her feel as though she had been struck by lightning. She stood rooted to the ground, paralyzed with shock.
After a long time, the letters “I A-M P-R-E-G-N-A-N-T” rolled slowly across her mind.
Qin Zhi’ai didn’t remember how she had managed to make it out of the bathroom, but when she became slightly more clear-headed, she found herself lying in bed with her arms wrapped around her blanket and staring vacantly at the ceiling.
I am pregnant. Pregnant with Gu Yusheng’s child. What should I do? Should I keep the child or not?
The more Qin Zhi’ai dwelled on this, the more her head throbbed with pain. By the time she sat up in her bed, it was already dark outside, and she had yet to have dinner.
Usually, she would have skipped her meal if she felt lazy, but things would be different now that she had a life inside her. Having yet to decide what to do about her child, Qin Zhi’ai got out of bed.
