Su Wanxin followed her gaze and looked down, but before she could conceal anything, Su Yao had already rushed over.
She bent down to look at Su Wanxin’s stomach, asking worriedly and confusedly, "What is this?"
Su Wanxin had fair skin, which easily bruised even from minor bumps.
Currently, there were bluish-purple marks around several needle spots on her stomach, which looked particularly shocking.
Su Wanxin was holding her lower abdomen with both hands, but Su Yao forcefully pulled them away.
Su Yao’s facial features tensed as she looked for a brief moment, then stood up straight, looking very serious at Su Wanxin, and said, "What exactly is going on, tell me clearly!"
Su Yao was easily misled, but that doesn’t mean she was foolish.
It was uncommon to receive injections in the stomach, and Su Yao was certainly not naive enough to believe that one would get injections there for a cold.
Moreover, Su Wanxin didn’t use drugs, ruling out other possibilities. Su Yao was utterly confused and suddenly remembered that someone had threatened Su Wanxin, which panicked her.
"Did someone force you?!"
Oh no, has her sister gotten into drugs?!
Su Yao looked panicked, and Su Wanxin felt that if she didn’t say something, Su Yao might rush out any minute to tell Qi Ran.
"No one forced me, I did it voluntarily," Su Wanxin sighed deeply and whispered softly, "It’s not drug use, don’t get the wrong idea."
"What is going on then?!"
Who normally gets injections in their stomach?! Doesn’t it hurt?!
Su Wanxin turned around to put on a robe, then started to feel a headache coming on.
Su Yao followed her into the bedroom, watched her lie down on the bed, then firmly sat on the edge of the bed with an attitude that screamed "I won’t leave until you tell me."
"I’ll tell you, but you can’t tell mom," Su Wanxin lay on her side and looked at her, "You have to promise not to tell, only then will I tell you the truth."
"Okay, tell me." Su Yao nodded without hesitation, very straightforward, which made Su Wanxin doubt her credibility.
Even though she knew this day would come eventually, Su Wanxin hadn’t expected it to come so soon.
The confession lingered at the tip of her tongue, she hesitated for a long time, still unsure how to say it.
"Hurry up and say it!" Su Yao, seeing her conflict, became anxious. "If you don’t say it, I’m going to get mom!"
"Grow up, you’re always tattling."
"I will tell!" Su Yao stated proudly: "I like to!"
Su Wanxin gave a bitter smile and pulled the covers over her face. Su Yao immediately pulled the covers back and then, heard Su Wanxin say—
"I’m pregnant, I’ve been getting progesterone injections."
The room fell silent for a moment, Su Yao’s face filled with shock, completely unable to process this news.
She stared blankly for a while, then suddenly stood up, took a deep breath, and shouted—
"Mom!!! Su Wanxin she..."
Su Wanxin quickly pulled the rushing Su Yao back into the room, pinned her down on the bed, and covered her mouth, furious and embarrassed.
"Didn’t we agree not to tell mom? Why don’t you keep your word?!"
"You... you!"
Su Yao stuttered, having a lot to say, but at the moment didn’t know what to say.
She recalled Su Wanxin’s recent odd behaviors and finally realized why.
No wonder she wanted to move, no wonder she wanted to live separately! It was because of this!
"You didn’t tell me? I’m done being friends with you!"
"I’m pregnant now, are you sure you want to talk to me in that tone?"
"..."
Fine, pregnant women trump everything, you’re pregnant, you’re the boss!
