Chapter 110 - ill: Insecurity (3)
This shock was no small matter. If the barrier couldn’t protect her, what if she really was pregnant?
Even though her period had just ended and theoretically she should be absolutely safe. But what if, what if she was just that unlucky? She didn’t want to gamble on that one in ten thousand chance!
She and Qin Zhiyou looked at each other. Qin Zhiyou clearly didn’t expect something like this to happen and seemed a bit surprised.
Damn Qin Zhiyou for insisting on this, it’s his fault she’s in this mess. She loathed this asshole. Pills would harm her body, but an abortion would harm her even more! Even if someday she had to have a child, it shouldn’t be now. She had taken pills frequently these past few months and hadn’t had time to metabolize them yet. How could she possibly be pregnant now?
Qin Zhiyou was clearly surprised too. When he saw the break, his mind went blank for a moment. He understood the biology behind it, knew that she was safe now, but what if, what if she really was pregnant? If even the chance of breaking the barrier had happened to him, what if she really was…
Of course, he only considered this for a moment. If Lu Weixi could think about how it would be bad for the baby’s health to get pregnant right now, then he would know too. But how harmful the pill was for her body, he had personally experienced a few days ago.
He was hesitating, but Lu Weixi didn’t hesitate. She took a moment to calm down, then immediately got up and left the room.
Qin Zhiyou realized something and quickly followed. As soon as he walked out, he saw her heading towards the bedside table still in her pajamas. She rummaged through the drawers and quickly found the pill bottle, pulled out a pill without thinking, and picked up a glass of water.
Just as she was about to take the pill, Qin Zhiyou grabbed her hand. His brow furrowed, his lips pursed, and his eyes were very intense.
He knew he shouldn’t, but he couldn’t help saying, “Don’t you have common sense? You’re safe now.”
“I know, but my cycle has been unstable these past few months because of the pill. What if? What if there really is a baby?” Lu Weixi was very calm. It was her body, and she must be more anxious than Qin Zhiyou. She’d been in pain before and didn’t know if there were any lasting effects. After weighing the pros and cons, she decided that an abortion was even more harmful, and she didn’t want to experience that.
For a moment, Qin Zhiyou almost agreed with her. But before he could say anything, Lu Weixi said something that took him down a notch: “Not to mention whether the child would be healthy, I know you don’t want a child, and neither do I. Children are the fruits of love, and at the very least, they should be born healthily and peacefully into this world. We’re not ready now.”
After saying this, she put the pill into her mouth, took a sip of water, and swallowed it.
The hand Qin Zhiyou had around her wrist loosened, bit by bit.
After taking the pill, Lu Weixi looked calm. She continued to analyze with Qin Zhiyou, “Qin Zhiyou, I know you’ve been somewhat interested in me recently. But please note, I’m unlike those women you fool around with outside. You cannot just discard me when you’re not in the mood, and make me take pills without any regard. If you want to come back, OK, we are husband and wife, unless I’m very uncomfortable, I won’t refuse you. But please don’t put me again in this untimely situation. It’s uncomfortable let alone, what if we really end up having a child one day, what then?”
