"Pregnant? Oh my god, are you kidding me?" Jiang Xiaowei almost went crazy.
"Girl, this is an early pregnancy test, and there are two lines on it."
"But the second line isn’t that obvious, how can you be so sure that I’m pregnant?" Jiang Xiaowei was speechless.
She hadn’t been with Wei Liao for very long...
It had only been 20 days since they moved in together.
This morning, she noticed that her usually on-time period was a day late.
For some strange reason, she bought an early pregnancy test, and...?
"This should be accurate." Huo Mian nodded.
’Holy crap... what am I supposed to do now?" Jiang Xiaowei didn’t seem ready to be a mother.
"Girl, isn’t it a good thing? Why do you look like something evil had just fallen onto your lap?" The truth was, Huo Mian admired her.
Wouldn’t it be great if she was the one who was pregnant...?
"How is that a good thing? I don’t even know what’s going to happen to us. Plus, I’m not ready yet."
"If you’re not ready yet, why didn’t you use protection?"
Jiang Xiaowei was a straight ’A’ student and had a Ph.D. in psychology; where was her common sense?
"I did... there was just that one time when I got drunk. He pounced on me without a condom, just that once..."
"Sometimes these things come mysteriously..." Huo Mian replied quietly.
"So, are you certain I’m pregnant? It’s only been a little over ten days, do you think it’s really possible?"
Jiang Xiaowei was still unwilling to believe that this was actually happening....
"There’s something else we can do to make sure. Come with me to the OB/GYN department. You can get a blood test to check your progesterone, then we’ll know for certain."
"That sounds good, let’s go. Take me there."
Before Huo Mian could say anything else, Jiang Xiaowei pushed her towards the elevator.
- Upstairs, in the OB/GYN Department -
Huo Mian sat with Jiang Xiaowei as her colleague drew her blood, and then she told the doctor at the lab to speed up the results.
- 40 minutes later -
A miserable Jiang Xiaowei came out with the lab report...
"This baby came so f*cking suddenly."
"It means you guys were meant to be. Don’t tell me you plan on getting an abortion?"
"That idea did cross my mind..."
"Don’t do that, you can give birth to it and I’ll raise it. You can’t get an abortion. After all, it’s a life," Huo Mian said with puppy dog eyes.
"Hahaha... I was kidding. Both mine and Wei Liao’s parents are going to be super happy... His parents don’t like me because they think I’m too straightforward... but I don’t like them either. My pregnancy might be able to shut them up."
"Yeah, since you have plans to spend your life with Wei Liao, you need to keep this child."
"I need to see the reaction on his face first." The truth was, Jiang Xiaowei was a little worried.
Usually, before a man was ready to marry a woman, he wouldn’t like it if she got pregnant.
They didn’t have a wedding yet, nor were they officially registered. Although that engagement party caused quite a stir, at the end of the day, it was only a party.
However, Wei Liao wasn’t that young anymore; he was 28 years old, even older than Su Yu.
Maybe he’ll be happy that Jiang Xiaowei’s pregnant.
After confirming her pregnancy, Jiang Xiaowei felt a little complicated – a mixture of happiness and sorrow.
Huo Mian, who admired her, kept telling Jiang Xiaowei to take good care of herself.
She even ran to the pharmacy and bought her some folic acid.
"Take this until the end of your first trimester, it’s good for your baby."
"Thanks, my genius doctor." Jiang Xiaowei pinched Huo Mian’s cheek.
After Jiang Xiaowei left South Side, she went straight to Wei Liao’s company.
The Wei Family had a big business; they started in the steel industry and were now in the chemical materials business.
Unlike Qin Chu, Wei Liao wasn’t the president of his family business, nor did he wield as much power as Qin Chu did.
However, he was still the executive vice president.
"Wei Liao..." Jiang Xiaowei called out as she walked towards his office.
"Wei, what brings you to the company?"
"I have good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"
"Bad news."
"The bad news is that I think I’m pregnant."
Wei Liao was immediately flabbergasted...
"What’s the good news then?"
