The results of the gastroscopy will be available in three days.
Xiang Zhilan still felt uneasy, so she simply stayed at Shen Muzhi's place to keep an eye on him.
She couldn't quite put her finger on what was wrong, but she felt that Shen Muzhi was different from before, as if he wasn't so burdened with worries anymore.
He also liked to touch her inappropriately, but she happened to be on her period, so she naturally refused to be intimate with him. She had a ready-made reason: she just had to say that her stomach was a little uncomfortable, since he assumed she was pregnant anyway.
However, it has become very inconvenient for her to go to the toilet, and she has to go to Ah Fang and the others' place.
However, something seemed increasingly off to her: how could he be so convinced she was pregnant? The birth control pill was 98% effective; he must have seen that written on the bottle, right?
After having a question in her mind, she took out the bottle of birth control pills. The pills were from a legitimate brand and should be fine.
She remembered that when she received the bottle of medicine, the cap seemed to have been opened. Could Shen Muzhi have done something to it?
"Are you hiding something from me?" Xiang Zhilan gripped the medicine bottle tightly and walked towards Shen Muzhi, who was playing with the children.
Hengheng and Xiaokui were picked up by Shen Muzhi this morning. Her parents already know that she is staying with Shen Muzhi.
Shen Muzhi stiffened for a moment. Did she find out about that matter so quickly? Then all his arrangements for tonight would have been for nothing.
"I didn't mean to lie to you, I just wanted to give you a surprise." He put his hand in his pocket and touched the ring, worried that she might get angry and abandon her promise. If that happened, he would immediately win her over.
Luckily, Ah Chao found the ring; otherwise, he definitely wouldn't have had time to buy a new one.
"A surprise?! You really know how to give me surprises!" Xiang Zhilan laughed angrily. Luckily, she had her period this time, otherwise, it would have been a real 'surprise' if she were actually pregnant.
Shen Muzhi was slightly taken aback when he saw that Xiang Zhilan had a medicine bottle in her outstretched hand.
"How could you not remember? This is the 'birth control pill' you bought for me. Now can you tell me what's inside?" Xiang Zhilan crossed her arms, waiting for him to confess honestly.
Shen Muzhi felt a sense of relief. So that was what it was. He hadn't thought he could hide it for long anyway, and it was good that he had confessed now. "It was vitamin tablets."
Xiang Zhilan didn't know what to say. He clearly wanted her to get pregnant, no wonder he didn't doubt whether her pregnancy was real or not.
“I know you have ambitions in your career, but at that time, I thought this might be the fastest way to get you to accept me again, so I…” Shen Muzhi took her hand and pursed his lips: “Are you angry with me?”
"If I were really..." Xiang Zhilan paused, almost giving herself away, and immediately changed the subject: "I hope you won't be too surprised when I give you a 'surprise'."
Anyway, she wasn't pregnant, so it's even, and it saves her from feeling guilty when she sees how much he's looking forward to the baby in her belly.
Shen Muzhi didn't quite understand what she meant. He was thinking about tonight's events. The plan should be complete. He hoped that nothing would go wrong this time.
Xiang Zhilan's phone suddenly rang. It was the interior designer in charge of her studio calling, and she answered it.
After a while, she frowned slightly, hummed twice, hung up the phone, and said to Shen Muzhi, "I need to go to the studio, you..."
"Go ahead, with two little ones watching over me, do you think I'll run away?" Shen Muzhi smiled faintly.
"Then I'll head out first." Xiang Zhilan put on her coat, packed her bag, and left.
Shen Muzhi watched her walk away; the first step tonight had been successful.
