Chapter 35: 035 Are you pregnant? Chapter 35: 035 Are you pregnant? Hua Mi finished loading the rack outside the camper with mineral water and then headed to the emergency area.
She had just reached the door when she smelled a form of blood, turned around, and suddenly began to retch violently.
The young nurse at the door of the emergency area, who had already recognized Hua Mi, came over, supported Hua Mi, and asked,
“Could you be pregnant?”
Hua Mi was stunned and stood straight up,
“How could that be? I don’t even have a boyfriend, who would I be pregnant with? It’s just the smell of blood that’s making me feel uncomfortable.”
In her past two lives combined, her only encounter with sexual intimacy was that one time with a gigolo she hired. She didn’t get pregnant in her previous life, so it wasn’t possible in this one either.
Hua Mi waved her hand and took out two bottles of water from her shoulder bag for the nurse,
“Here, drink these. I’m going to check on Cao Feng.”
She hadn’t finished speaking when her WeChat pinged, and it was a photo from Gong Yi.
The photo showed a pile of rubble, with Fang Xin and Qin Ziran lying in it, without pants.
It wasn’t hard to guess what the two were doing when the earthquake had hit.
[Gong Yi: “Didn’t expect to rescue these two, had to send you a picture right away.”]
Hua Mi looked down to reply,
[Hua Mi: “Do me a favor and kill them, and I’ll cover your mineral water for a lifetime.”]
[Gong Yi: “Can’t do that, there are rules.”]
[Hua Mi: “Rules my ass.”]
The two of them went back and forth, joking in their messages, synchronously avoiding any mention of how Cao Feng was doing.
Gong Yi didn’t dare to ask, and Hua Mi hadn’t seen Cao Feng in person, so she didn’t dare to say anything rash.
A robust voice called out from behind Hua Mi; it was a woman calling her.
Hua Mi turned around to see it was Dai Fang.
She sneered immediately, pretending not to recognize this woman,
“Oh, who could this be?”
Dai Fang was covered in dirt, her hair was a mess, and she was still wearing the uniform of the real estate agency.
She clacked over on high heels, looking disgruntled at Hua Mi,
“Don’t remember me? I work in the same office as your sister. Are you here to see Xinxin too? Hmm, at least you have some conscience.”
That morning, while she was at work, her real estate office unexpectedly collapsed; fortunately, Dai Fang had been standing by the door and hadn’t been injured, though the incident had scared her quite a bit.
They had been transported by a rescue team to a temporary medical center, and Dai Fang had just learned that Fang Xin and Qin Ziran were being brought over from the rubble, half-naked. They should be arriving soon.
Hua Mi pondered whether Gong Yi would bother to put some pants on them… Turning to Dai Fang, she said with a smile:
“Sorry, I don’t know you, nor do I know Xinxin.”
As for Dai Fang, how could Hua Mi not recognize her? This woman was basically the number one fool around the manipulative, sanctimonious Fang Xin.
At the onset of the apocalypse, Fang Xin had latched onto Hua Mi, dragging Dai Fang along to Hua Mi’s house too.
Once Fang Xin didn’t want to go out to search for supplies, Dai Fang would definitely speak up for her, one crying and the other filled with powerful blame directed at Hua Mi.
As if going out to find supplies was something Hua Mi should inherently do.
Even so, Hua Mi had tolerated Dai Fang’s arbitrary behavior around her for a year.
When the flood submerged the city a year later, Fang Xin pushed Dai Fang off the kayak in one swift move.
After pushing Dai Fang, Fang Xin looked at Hua Mi with teary eyes,
“Sister, she has always bullied you. I’ve disliked her for a long time. Sister, there are only two seats in this kayak. I had no other choice. I couldn’t let you fall into the water…”
Recalling what had happened in her past life, Hua Mi couldn’t help but feel nauseous.
She suppressed the nausea and refocused her attention on Dai Fang.
Sure enough, Dai Fang was furious, hands on her hips, the other pointing at Hua Mi’s nose as she yelled:
“I’m telling you, don’t be too excessive, Hua Mi, you heartless wretch. If it weren’t for Xinxin’s dad supporting you, you wouldn’t even know where you’d have died, you are truly ungrateful.”
Hua Mi grabbed the finger Dai Fang was pointing with, twisted it harshly, and snapped it back against her hand amidst Dai Fang’s screams. With a cold expression on her face,
“You do nothing all day but help others attack this person or that, are you sick or just bored with your life? Who feeds me is none of your business. It’s definitely not you supporting me, I’m ungrateful, but what do you know about gratitude? Do you really think you’re something special?”
These words, Hua Mi had wanted to say to Dai Fang in her previous life. Other people’s business, Dai Fang was never absent. This woman had no sense of boundaries, meddling in everything, passing judgment based on her own biased morals.
Ultimately, what did the grievances between Hua Mi and Fang Xin have to do with Dai Fang?
Hua Mi from her past life was very weak due to her parents’ death and being raised by her uncle, which made her sensitive and self-esteem low, even developing Stockholm syndrome in her uncle’s home.
This was why Fang Xin was able to control Hua Mi her entire life, even letting Dai Fang live in Hua Mi’s house without doing anything for a year, only coming out after the severe cold had passed.
This was also why Dai Fang accused Hua Mi of being ungrateful because previously Fang Xin had a firm hold on her.
As long as she was around Fang Xin, it was known that Hua Mi received great favor from the Fang Family, so Hua Mi had to serve Fang Xin like a servant for life.
Even though Hua Mi’s sacrifices had long exceeded what was owed by many times.
Normally at this time, just a slight sign of unhappiness from Fang Xin and Dai Fang, and Hua Mi would start to blame herself and comply with every demand from Fang Xin.
But the Hua Mi of today clearly stiffened up, her expressionless face staring at the screaming Dai Fang,
“Stay away from me. From now on, stop measuring me by your standards. I’ve turned dark!”
The Hua Mi of today was a truly transformed Hua Mi!
“Capture her, catch her, she’s hurting people, arrest her!”
Dai Fang, covering her broken finger, screamed at the nearby Garrison, sweating profusely.
Is this a joke? Hua Mi broke her fingers right under their watch, and these Garrison members were just looking on?
Have they no discipline?
Several Garrison members turned their heads to the side, pretending to talk,
“It’s a bit cold today.”
“The cold wave is coming, wear more when you go out these next few days.”
Actually, they lived right inside the rescue center, but they just pretended to casually chat away.
The nurse standing at the entrance of the emergency area, blinking her big mascara-laden eyes, also guiltily turned away, pretending not to see.
This woman called Dai Fang, the nurse at the entrance of the emergency area knew her all too well.
On these still orderly days, troublemakers left a particularly deep impression.
