Chapter 937 Pregnancy Test
The fruit plate contained Gu Wanqiu's favorite strawberries and cherries. She didn't eat them but took the hot water beside her and drank it in small sips. Her lips became a little redder after being stained by the water, and she felt a little more energetic.
"Mrs. Liu, do you think Li Jinxing is really dead?"
Gu Wanqiu rarely mentioned Li Jinxing to her. She had mentioned it once last night and again this morning, both times bringing up the topic of "Li Jinxing's death." Did she care or not? Mrs. Liu didn't want to explore the matter.
Last night she dreamed of Li Jinxing, and Mrs. Liu said, "Everyone has his own destiny."
These four words indicate that Mrs. Liu has accepted Li Jinxing's death.
Although Gu Wanqiu did not see Li Jinxing's body, she saw the death certificate, which proved that this person was no longer in this world. However, there was always a voice in her heart telling her that Li Jinxing was not dead, which made her unable to find peace of mind and lived in fear of an unknown future.
The fruit on the plate had been there from morning to noon, but Gu Wanqiu didn't eat any of it.
Because Gu Wanqiu had vomited in the morning and no one knew why, Mrs. Liu was very nervous when she was cooking at noon, fearing that she might not have cooked well and make Gu Wanqiu vomit again.
Gu Wanqiu's temper was still pretty good. Even after vomiting, he didn't lose his temper, nor did he blame her.
He lay sickly on the small sofa on the balcony.
The meal that Mrs. Liu prepared for lunch was very light. Gu Wanqiu did not vomit after eating it this time. She felt fine at night and went back to sleep after eating.
I thought everything would be fine, but in the following days, she still vomited from time to time, mainly in the morning, and sometimes she would vomit just by drinking a glass of milk.
But in just two weeks, I became even thinner. When I walked on the beach, it seemed as if I would be blown away by the sea breeze.
Mrs. Liu didn't take it seriously at first, thinking that Gu Wanqiu just had a bad stomach. She tried her best to adjust her diet and the meals she cooked were suitable for people with stomach problems.
Mrs. Liu had suffered from stomach problems before, but they were mild. She knew how uncomfortable it was when they occurred. Sometimes when she was hungry, her stomach would hurt like being pricked by needles.
Apart from the stomach problem, she felt that Gu Wanqiu must be malnourished and had hypoglycemia.
Every time after vomiting, she would gasp for breath, and beads of cold sweat would drip from her forehead. Every time after vomiting, she would close her eyes and lie on the sofa for a long time.
Several times, Mrs. Liu was worried that she would faint.
No matter how nutritious the food is, if you have a bad spleen and stomach, you will vomit out everything you eat without absorbing the food. This will cause problems for your body in terms of nutrition.
Mrs. Liu looked at her slender arms and felt a little distressed. Gu Wanqiu was born beautiful, a rare beauty in the world. Even if she had lost weight, it was still a sight that made people feel pity.
That little face was pale and white as gold paper. Compared with her past appearance, she was now so thin that she looked unrecognizable.
Mrs. Liu saw that Gu Wanqiu had vomited no less than thirty times. If this continued, something serious would happen sooner or later.
Mrs. Liu advised Gu Wanqiu to go to the hospital for a check-up.
"Miss Gu, you should go to the hospital. I see you've been vomiting so much. Going to the hospital to get some medicine or being hospitalized for an IV drip might help."
"But I don't want to go to the hospital." Apart from vomiting, there were no other symptoms. I just felt tired and always wanted to sleep. As soon as I touched the pillow, I felt drowsy and had no energy.
Gu Wanqiu was very resistant to hospitals. She was not someone who didn't care about her body. She was also afraid of death. She tried her best to eat every meal that Mrs. Liu prepared for her. Sometimes she vomited, but most of the food went into her stomach. However, she just didn't gain weight.
Gu Wanqiu also began to suspect that she had some terminal illness. The more afraid she was, the more she dared not go to the hospital, for fear that she would get the result she was most unwilling to accept.
After finally sending Li Jinxing away, and seeing that good days were about to come, she fell ill at this time. Isn't it ridiculous? Will she be entangled with Li Jinxing even after her death?
Thinking of this, Gu Wanqiu's face turned ugly.
Mrs. Liu sat beside him and held her slender wrist. "Look at how thin you've become lately. Many serious illnesses are caused by the gradual accumulation of seemingly tolerable minor illnesses. There are many cases of stomach problems developing into stomach cancer. If you don't see a doctor now, will you regret it later when you become terminally ill? There is no medicine for regret in this world."
Gu Wanqiu lowered his head, as if thinking about something.
Mrs. Liu let go of her hand and continued to persuade her: "Listen to Mrs. Liu, go to the hospital. Don't be afraid, I will accompany you to the hospital."
Gu Wanqiu raised her head and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito: "Will you accompany me?"
"Miss Gu, please don't think I'm annoying. I'm just concerned about you. You're still so young, and good health is the most important thing."
She wasn't so scared anymore when someone accompanied her to the hospital.
Hearing Mrs. Liu say frankly that she cared about her, her originally empty heart seemed to be filled with a little warmth and she became less irritable and uneasy.
"Okay." Gu Wanqiu agreed.
He said he would go to the hospital, but it was already noon and a little late today, so Gu Wanqiu made an appointment with the hospital using her mobile phone so that she could go early tomorrow morning without having to queue.
Gu Wanqiu didn't know which department to enroll in, so she asked Mrs. Liu.
"I see you've been vomiting lately. Let's see a gastroenterologist. Do you have any other symptoms?"
Gu Wanqiu said a lot of things when she said this, and she even hadn’t had her period recently.
Mrs. Liu suddenly had an idea. Could it be that Gu Wanqiu was pregnant?
When she was pregnant, she was in good health and did not experience morning sickness. She just felt a little sore in her waist and had a good appetite. She just needed to rest more at home and everything would be fine.
A careful analysis of Gu Wanqiu's physical condition revealed that she vomited upon smelling strange odors, had a poor appetite, was physically tired and sleepy, and her menstrual period had not come for more than three months.
This situation...
"Miss Gu, are you pregnant?"
Gu Wanqiu was stunned. After a moment of absence, her face changed slightly. She pulled the corners of her lips stiffly: "Impossible, I can't be pregnant. How could I be pregnant?"
She denied it three times in a row. Seeing how repulsive she was, Mrs. Liu became even more suspicious.
Gu Wanqiu breathed a sigh of relief. Actually, it was not impossible. After all, Li Jinxing took her to the church on April 15th. He did not take any measures that day, and she did not take any medicine afterwards. Under normal circumstances, it was possible for her to get pregnant.
Why do we say it is a "normal situation"? Because Gu Wanqiu's physical condition at that time was different from that of ordinary people. She had just had her eggs extracted not long ago. Her physical condition was so poor at the time, how could she possibly get pregnant?
"How can you be so sure that you're not pregnant? Have you and Mr. Li had sex before?"
Gu Wanqiu didn't want to explain more. To her, what happened between her and Li Jinxing in the past was a huge stain in her life, and she would not tell anyone about those embarrassing things.
"There's no way I could get pregnant anyway."
She did not answer the questions asked by Mrs. Liu. Her answers were irrelevant to the questions, which meant that there was a problem. She must have had a relationship with Mr. Li before.
Mrs. Liu stopped pressing the issue and said, "Anyway, first make an appointment with the Internal Medicine Department for a detailed physical examination."
Gu Wanqiu nodded, then slumped down on the sofa, placing her hands on her abdomen and clenching her fists.
Things that I had never thought about before, now that I have been reminded of them, I care more and more about them.
Gu Wanqiu looked up the symptoms of pregnancy online and found that she basically met all of them. Of course, the loss of appetite, vomiting, and weight loss were somewhat similar to hepatitis B.
Compared to pregnancy, Gu Wanqiu would rather accept hepatitis B.
Another way was to buy a test paper to test whether she was pregnant. Gu Wanqiu opened the mobile takeaway and bought a pregnancy test stick online. It took nearly an hour to be delivered.
After making the purchase, Gu Wanqiu sat on the sofa and waited anxiously.
What she didn't know was that the news of her buying the pregnancy test stick had already reached the ears of some people.
As soon as the pregnancy test stick arrived, Gu Wanqiu took it to the bathroom, secretly without letting Mrs. Liu know. She sat on the toilet, looked at the instructions, followed the steps, and waited for a while.
During this time, Gu Wanqiu didn't dare to look, her hands were shaking. After five minutes, she raised the pregnancy test stick in her hand and looked over.
One line, two lines...two lines mean there is a baby in the belly.
With a "click" sound, the pregnancy test stick in my hand fell to the ground.
Gu Wanqiu was already at a loss. She wanted to pick up the pregnancy test stick on the ground, but her fingertips were about to touch it and she pulled back in fright.
