After listening to his words, she could not help but laugh. “Doctor, I’m not taking any birth-control pills. Can you check and see what is going on?”
“You don’t take birth-control pills? If that is so, the numbers shouldn’t be that high. Nowadays, there are so many types of contraceptives available. If you don’t want to use a condom, you can undergo ligation or insert an IUD. All these are better than ruining your own body. You are still so young. Listen to me, fortunately you discovered this early. If you were to continue taking the pills, you may face fertility issues in the future!”
Qiao Lian panicked. “I am really not taking any birth-control pills! My husband and I are trying to get a baby. Doctor, please help me check and tell me what’s going on?”
When the doctor heard her words, he frowned in confusion. “I will file for a check up. You can take another blood test.”
Holding the report, Qiao Lian walked out of the office.
The doctor’s words were ringing in her ears.
The hormonal imbalance in her body had surely been caused by medication.
However, she was certain that she had not consume any medicine this month. If she did…
She suddenly thought of the the milk she drank every morning, which had an odd taste.
She had drank it without any suspicions because Auntie Li had said that it had fertility medicine in it.
She had believed that the Shen Family was an aristocratic family with a long heritage, so they must have had their own home remedy.
But now…
She did not take the blood test. Instead, she quickly left the hospital, hailed a cab and rushed to the villa.
She wanted to check the fertility medicine with a professional.
Aunt Xia had such a strong desire for a child and Shen Liangchuan was working so hard. If all these things were to get ruined because of that bottle of medicine, everything would be meaningless!
The cab stopped outside the villa. After taking out the keys, she opened the side gate and entered.
She was planning on taking a pill and testing it sneakily. If the pills really had problems, she could just stop taking them from now on. There was no need to let Shen Liangchuan know that he had overreached himself and make him feel guilty about it.
However, just as she entered speedily, she discovered that there was one more car parked in the yard. It was the car that Shen Liangchuan had driven to work this morning.
Did that mean that Shen Liangchuan’s back?
She was slightly caught off guard. Without much thought, she walked towards the living room.
She opened the living room door and changed her shoes. She was going to go to the kitchen to search when she suddenly heard a conversation coming from the balcony.
This balcony of the villa was facing the back of the garden, so the people on the balcony had not seen her enter the villa from the front door.
At this moment, Shen Liangchuan was reading his script on the balcony’s chair.
Auntie Li, who was standing in front of him, was asking for instructions and saying something.
When Qiao Lian walked over, she happened to hear Auntie Li say, “Sir, are you going to let Madam continue taking that medicine?”
Medicine?
They were referring to the medicine in the milk, right?
Qiao Lian didn’t really know why she did, but she stopped in her tracks. Shen Liangchuan said after a moment of silence, “Yes.”
Auntie Li sighed. “Sir, why must you? Since you married Madam, why don’t you want Madam to get pregnant?”
Why didn’t he want Madam to get pregnant?
Those words hit her like a bolt from the blue.
The medicine was not to help with fertility? Why was Auntie Li asking those questions?
Her eyes widened in astonishment. She could feel that her mind had gone blank in an instant.
At this moment, she looked ahead in terror and even her breath slowed down. Then, she heard Shen Liangchuan say, “This is not something you should worry about.”
Auntie Li heaved a deep sigh. “Sir, I watched you grow up… You still cannot let go of your first love, so you married Madam to reassure your mother?”
