Lu Qin has never been very fond of her cousin Lu Qi.
When they were young, they had more contact because they were of similar age and often played together. But after spending a long time together, she started to dislike her cousin.
I like to snatch everything from her.
Toys, clothes, snacks, etc.
Before Lu Qin's father passed away, her family was well off, so she had good food, clothing and other necessities when she was a child, but that was not the case with Lu Qi's family.
Whenever she saw Lu Qin wearing a new dress or buying a new sketchbook, she would cry and make a fuss about it, and would not leave until she got it.
However, Lu Qin's uncle never met his daughter's requests.
Once, Lu Qin wore a coat that was very popular at the time, the kind with rabbit ears, which was furry and very cute. When Lu Qi saw it, he refused to leave and grabbed her clothes tightly, refusing to let go no matter how much he tried to persuade her.
Her mother got so angry that she slapped her twice, but it didn't make her give up.
In the end, Lu Qin's father couldn't stand it anymore and felt that there was no need to be so strict with the child, so he bought her an identical one and finally gave up.
From then on, I basically had to buy two copies of everything for Lu Qin.
But Lu Qi's family accepted it with peace of mind.
Later, her father passed away and her family fell into poverty, while her uncle's family prospered. Lu Qi looked down on her cousin.
When we meet during the Chinese New Year or other holidays, I don’t even want to call her sister.
Lu Qin couldn't help but sigh when she thought about the past. She really didn't like Lu Qi very much.
But...how could she be pregnant?
Looking at Xiao Xu squatting on the ground, blaming himself, Lu Qin thought to herself, "Lu Qi's child...could it be yours?!"
…
There was no answer, only a long silence.
Lu Qin sighed, but she already knew the answer.
She didn't know how to comment.
"Xiao Qin, I really didn't mean it." Xiao Xu didn't want to answer the question directly, but suddenly stood up, not caring that all the porridge in his hands had fallen to the ground, and grabbed Lu Qin's arms: "I really didn't expect that Lu Qi would... Yes, it was her, she got me drunk."
“…”
Lu Qin frowned. Xiao Xu's strength was quite strong, which made her feel a little painful. "Let me go first."
"Xiaoqin, can you please forgive me? You know, I've always loved you! I'm going back and asking her to abort the baby!"
"Let go!" Lu Qin felt pain and couldn't help but cry out.
"It's not like that, I didn't..." Xiao Xu still didn't let go and tried to defend himself.
"Xiao Xu." Lu Qin suddenly sighed: "You don't have to feel sorry for me. Whether Lu Qi is pregnant or not, and whether the child is yours or not, it has nothing to do with me."
"Lu Qi is my sister, but you and I are just ordinary colleagues and friends. You don't have to do this."
"I've made it very clear to you from the beginning. I can't promise you."
"But you clearly said you would give me an answer." Xiao Xu was a little bit incredulous and asked, "Do you dare to say you didn't say that?"
Lu Qin had a headache. Starting from noon today, a series of events caught her off guard. The amount of information was too much for her to digest.
"I did say that, but I also clearly rejected you." Lu Qin slowly and firmly removed his hand: "I have never considered being with you."
A look of disappointment flashed across Xiao Xu's eyes, and his hands unconsciously let go of Lu Qin's arm.
Yes, he had clearly heard Lu Qin's rejection. He was still fantasizing that one day he would be able to touch her heart.
Originally he still had a glimmer of hope, but now...
Xiao Xu's eyes would alternate between Lu Qin smiling and saying "no" to him, and Lu Qi acting coquettishly and foolishly, saying "I'm pregnant." The two's faces, somewhat similar yet completely different, played out before his eyes like a shadow play.
He knew that he had made a mistake.
…
Lu Qin rubbed his aching arm and sighed: "Xiao Xu, go back. We can talk about it tomorrow, okay?"
She was also in a hurry to deliver food to her mother, she had work to leave behind, and troubles waiting for her to solve.
I really don't have the energy to get entangled with Xiao Xu.
Lu Qin knew better in her heart that Xiao Xu was not a bad person, and she also wanted Xiao Xu to live well. Even if they would not be together, it would not be a bad idea to bless him as a friend.
But... she didn't know and didn't want to know what happened between him and Lu Qi in this life.
She could only say that after working together for more than three months, Xiao Xu must be aware of the character of Lu Qi's family.
But Lu Qi was still pregnant. This was definitely Xiao Xu's fault. He had to bear the consequences of his wrongdoing.
Lu Qin is not a child. She doesn't believe that if he was really drunk, how could such a relationship happen?
"Go home, don't forget, no matter what, your parents will definitely wait for you."
The market had almost closed; it was too cold, and the last sparse lights had disappeared.
Lu Qin hurriedly turned around and bought the last half pot of rice porridge and a few small red bean paste buns while the stall owners were still cleaning up.
It seemed that the family used to run a freezer, and they had a lot of ready-made frozen dumplings, buns, etc. left at home. They were reluctant to sell them all at once, so they came up with an idea. They set up a stall here every day to sell steamed buns, selling them individually. They made much more money than selling them in bags.
The soft and sweet aroma of the red bean paste buns carried a hint of warmth. Xiao Xu took the food that Lu Qin handed to him again, stared at the steaming buns, and couldn't help but shed tears of regret.
"sorry……"
When I looked up, Lu Qin had already walked towards the hospital without looking back.
Her eyes gradually filled with tears, and Lu Qin's figure in her eyes finally became blurred.
He clenched the food in his hand, turned around and walked in the opposite direction.
Yes, how could he be decadent? At least his parents were still waiting for him to come back.
