Chapter 359 That's because of me

Huo Huai Sui gulped down more than half a glass of water in one go, and was about to call the waiter to ask why the fish was so fishy when Lu Feng Qing stopped her hand.

Huo Huaisui: "What's wrong with Niannian?"

"I'm a little curious," Lu Fengqing lowered her voice, "Did you and Xie Qinglan...do you...do you do it?"

"..." Huo Huai Sui's face turned red.

Seeing her like this, Lu Fengqing knew the answer: "When was your last period?"

Huo Huaisui took out his phone and glanced at it. "The 7th of last month."

Lu Fengqing's gaze was complicated. "Today is the 20th."

Huo Huaisui: "..."

Her periods have always been irregular and often delayed. In addition, she has been busy with the new store and trying on various dresses, so she didn't pay attention to it. If her best friend hadn't asked about it, she probably wouldn't have remembered it.

Huo Huai Sui understood what her best friend meant and said dejectedly, "But we always use small umbrellas."

Lu Fengqing: "Condoms are not 100% effective at preventing pregnancy. No one can guarantee that there won't be any 'escaped sperm'."

Huo Huai Sui remained silent.

Condoms are not 100% effective at preventing pregnancy, and she can only hope that her period is late and that her body has received "escaped sperm".

“Besides,” Lu Fengqing smiled, “with your lucky streak, you might actually win the lottery.”

Huo Huaisui: "..."

She doesn't want any luck in this area at all.

Lu Fengqing called the waiter over again, "Let's eat something else to fill our stomachs first. It's getting late, we'll find time to go to the hospital tomorrow, but let's go to the pharmacy first."

Huo Huaisui silently accepted her best friend's arrangement.

Soon, the waiter brought over the new food the two had ordered.

But Huo Huaisui had no appetite at all.

The thought that I might be pregnant makes my heart race with mixed emotions.

She felt she was still young and didn't want to get married or take on the responsibilities, but having children is a greater responsibility than marriage, and she was completely unprepared for it.

After managing to eat a little something, Huo Huai Sui couldn't help but ask, "Niannian, what if... you're really pregnant?"

Lu Fengqing: "You'll have to ask Xie Qinglan about that."

Huo Huai Sui's face immediately fell.

She hadn't decided whether to tell him or not.

Huo Huai Sui couldn't eat the fish, and Lu Feng Qing didn't want to waste it, so in the end she had to finish the whole grilled fish herself.

Fortunately, the fish wasn't big, so she could barely finish it.

However, she probably won't want to see fish again for a long time to come.

After leaving the grilled fish restaurant, the two went to a pharmacy.

As soon as we stepped into the pharmacy, a clerk greeted us, "What would you like to order?"

Huo Huaisui had never bought that thing before and didn't know how to bring it up.

Lu Fengqing said, "Pregnancy test."

"Okay, please follow me." The shop assistant led the two to the shelf displaying family planning products and introduced them to pregnancy tests of different brands and prices.

Lu Fengqing glanced at Huo Huaisui, thinking that given Huo Huaisui's personality, even if she got two lines on the pregnancy test, she probably wouldn't want to admit it and would probably think there was something wrong with the test. So she simply bought three of each brand and told her to take as many tests as she wanted.

After paying the bill, Lu Fengqing put the ten pregnancy tests into Huo Huaisui's bag, saying, "Use them according to the instructions on the box when you get back."

Huo Huaisui: "Oh."

With her mind preoccupied with her late period, Huo Huai Sui lost all interest in continuing her shopping.

Before parting, Huo Huai Sui grabbed Lu Feng Qing, "Don't tell my fourth brother!"

If her fourth brother finds out, he might tell her brother, and then her brother will definitely scold her again.

Lu Fengqing said with a smile, "I won't say. But let me know when you're done with the test. I'll have time tomorrow and can go to the hospital with you."

Huo Huaisui: "Okay!"

The two parted ways in the parking lot and went their separate ways home.

Since Xie Qinglan returned to China, he has been staying with Huo Huaisui, and the two have been living together. These past few days, Xie Qinglan has been busy with work, leaving early and returning late every day. Huo Huaisui has never encountered him when he is awake, so the two have not spoken for several days.

Even so, Huo Huai Sui didn't feel neglected. After all, someone who is truly neglected can't wake up every morning to a breakfast made by their boyfriend.

When Huo Huai Sui returned, the house was indeed dark; Xie Qing Lan had not yet come back.

Huo Huaisui changed his shoes and immediately grabbed his bag and ran to the master bedroom's bathroom.

There were four different brands of pregnancy tests in the bag. She opened one test from each brand, followed the instructions on the packaging, and then placed the urine-soaked tests side by side on the ground, staring intently at the observation window.

Time passed second by second.

Three minutes later—

Huo Huai Sui stared at the results displayed on the four pregnancy test strips and fell into deep thought.

Something must be wrong.

Huo Huaisui put the four pregnancy tests aside, preparing to try four more.

But she hadn't peed anymore...

Huo Huai Sui came out of the bathroom, ran to the kitchen stove to fill two cups with water, and then ran back to the bathroom to continue waiting to urinate.

When the second test results came back, Huo Huaisui was completely speechless.

Eight pregnancy tests, all of them showed two lines.

Everyone was telling her that she was incredibly lucky and had actually won the lottery.

The instructions say that morning urine is the most accurate for testing, so I didn't open the remaining four vials of Huo Huai Sui. I plan to do one last test tomorrow morning.

Huo Huaisui grabbed his phone with a frustrated look, turned on the camera, took a picture of the eight pregnancy test strips, and sent it to Lu Fengqing.

[Nian Nian: Congratulations]

Huo Huai Sui smiled wryly. What kind of congratulations was this? She wasn't ready to be a mother yet.

[Niannian: I'll pick you up tomorrow morning and take you to the hospital for a blood test]

[SuiSui: Okay]

Huo Huaisui was afraid that Xie Qinglan would see these things when she returned, so after cleaning up the bathroom, he even went downstairs to throw away the trash.

Huo Huai Sui was so worried about getting two lines on the eight pregnancy tests that she couldn't sleep. She was tossing and turning in bed until Xie Qing Lan came back.

Seeing that she was still awake, Xie Qinglan asked, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"

"I can't sleep." Huo Huai Sui replied, then, fearing Xie Qing Lan would ask why she couldn't sleep, added, "I drank too much milk tea."

Xie Qinglan leaned down and kissed her cheek. "I'm going to take a shower first."

Huo Huaisui stared blankly at the roof, "Oh."

Xie Qinglan glanced at her and keenly sensed that something was off about his girlfriend tonight.

However, he didn't rush to ask; he went to take a shower first.

Huo Huai Sui sighed as he listened to the sound of water coming from the bathroom.

Men are so lucky; they don't have the hassle of getting pregnant.

Huo Huai Sui reached into the blanket and touched his lower abdomen, then turned over and sighed again.

Men shower quickly, and Xie Qinglan soon emerged from the bathroom wrapped in a bathrobe.

Xie Qinglan sat on the edge of the bed, leaned over and tugged at Huo Huaisui's hair, "Something on your mind?"

Huo Huai Sui, with his back to him, said in a muffled voice, "You don't understand."

Xie Qinglan: "Tell me about it."

Huo Huaisui: "You wouldn't understand even if I told you."

After all, you won't get pregnant.

After having fun, you can still become a father.

Seeing that his girlfriend wouldn't say, Xie Qinglan guessed for herself, "Did your brother bully you again?"

Huo Huaisui: "My brother and I haven't spoken for half a month."

Xie Qinglan continued to guess: "The coffee shop isn't doing well."

Huo Huaisui: "That's great. I plan to open two more next year."

"That's not it, that's not it." Xie Qinglan chuckled, "Then it's because of me."

Huo Huai Sui remained silent this time, tacitly agreeing.

It's all because of this stinky man, because of his overly clever little tadpole.
