Qiao Lian proceeded to send the CQ team members back to the clubhouse.
When she was leaving, Su Penghao and the rest were reluctant to let her go.
Su Penghao even said, “Coach Qiao, can’t we just play a match together? Will you be able to play a game with your hand like this?”
Ever since Shen Liangchuan took her to the doctor, she had been more conscious of her own hand.
However, when it came to playing a match, her hand was still not up to it.
As she was thinking about it, she bit her lip and said, “Ok, let’s have a match.”
Su Penghao’s eyes immediately lit up.
Qiao Lian’s character, as usual, was Xiao Qiao. For the first half an hour, her moves were indeed smooth, but after half an hour, she started to often make maneuvering errors.
Her hand would occasionally feel weak.
Finally, Qiao Lian decided to give up. “Better to rest a bit more.”
After leaving the villa, a slight look of disappointment could be seen on her face.
For the last period of time, she had been taking care of her hand almost everyday. But why hadn’t there been any improvements?
As she was contemplating this, she didn’t realize that there was someone following her.
She took a cab and headed straight back to the Shen Villa.
When she just reached home, she saw Xia Nuannuan sitting alone on the sofa in a daze. It was obvious that her emotions were not quite right.
She took a step forward and casually enquired, “Nuannuan, what is wrong?”
Xia Nuannuan jumped up in shock. When she regained her composure, she immediately stood up and spoke as if trying to hide something, “There’s nothing wrong. I am going upstairs.”
Yet after she went upstairs, Xia Nuannuan continued to sit on the sofa, dazed.
She had initially made an appointment with the hospital to have an abortion this afternoon. But when it was finally time, she was hesitating and in a dilemma.
She liked Shen Zihao. Even though Shen Zihao had misunderstood her, she had tried hard to control her own emotions. But she still liked him.
As she thought about this, she placed her hand on her lower abdomen.
This child belonged to her and Shen Zihao.
Thinking about this made her feel a sense of joy deep down in her heart.
But… what would happen when the baby was born?
She and Shen Zihao were both from different social classes, and it was impossible for them to be together.
How could she allow her own child to be without a father from a young age?
And, if one day Shen Zihao came to know about the child, how should he face the child?
It seemed like if she gave birth to this child, the aftermath would create infinite trouble.
Besides…
If her parents were to know of her pregnancy before marriage, they would certainly be enraged.
As she thought of this, Xia Nuannuan made a firm resolution.
She stood up, picked up her bag and then headed out straightaway.
After saying her greetings to Qiao Lian, she walked outside to take a bus and go to the maternity hospital.
There were people everywhere in the hospital.
Those who came for an abortion mostly had their husbands or boyfriends with them.
She was, however, the only one who came alone.
She bit her lip. But as she went to get the paperwork done, the doctor requested for the father of the child to sign the papers.
But where on earth could she go and find a father for the child?
Xia Nuannuan spoke nervously, “Doctor, I- Can’t I do this by myself?”
The doctor spoke angrily, “Of course not! These are the rules of the hospital. Where is the child’s father? Even if you both have separated, he should at least come here to sign the papers.”
The doctor spoke in a loud voice and soon, it attracted a lot of attention from the people around them.
Xia Nuannuan gripped her fingers and lowered her head, although she didn’t feel embarrassed.
Right at this moment, Shen Zihao’s voice could be heard somewhere nearby, “Xia Nuannuan?”
