Xuxu was stumped for words but she reassured her with a smile . “No, don’t jump to a conclusion . If she’s really pregnant, the baby is Lu Yinan’s . Lu Yinan is not married, both of them are single . ”
She thought, perhaps to Su Yue, anyone who had children before marriage must be indecent .
“Oh . ” Su Yue nodded and heaved a sigh of relief .
Xuxu noticed the change in her expression and calmly placed some food into Su Yue’s bowl .
Zhou Shuang returned from the bathroom, and she looked pale as if she were severely ill .
When Xuxu saw her, it worried her . However, she wanted to laugh as well .
“Sister hooligan, when are you getting married to Lu Yinan?”
Zhou Shuang had just sat down and was wiping her mouth with a tissue when Su Yue suddenly asked out of curiosity .
Zhou Shuang paused when she heard this and looked at Su Yue . She gloomily raised her eyebrows . “Pretentious woman . What did you say?”
Su Yue blinked and looked puzzled . “You are already expecting his baby, so aren’t you getting married?”
Zhou Shuang shook her head . “Nothing of that sort . Don’t jump to a conclusion and don’t listen to what your Third sister-in-law says . I’m just suffering from pharyngitis . I am not pregnant . ”
‘Tch . Who wants to marry that sissy?’
Even if all the men in this world were dead, she wouldn’t consider marrying him .
After that, she shot a stern look of warning at Xuxu .
Zhou Shuang didn’t eat much throughout the meal and had only a few bites from the dishes she ordered .
The restaurant was on the 5th floor while the maternity and baby’s section was on the 4th floor . Hence, after dinner, they shopped their way down .
When they passed by a store selling baby clothes, Xuxu halted her steps in front of the glass display cabinet . She pointed to a little mannequin in the shop . It was wearing a yellow dress that came with a pair of wings . She commented to Zhou Shuang and Su Yue, “Take a look, this is so cute . ”
Zhou Shuang rolled her eyes at Xuxu . “I don’t agree . ”
She didn’t like little children and animals, and she found them detesting .
Su Yue joined Xuxu and knelt down to look at the tiny dress . She also found it adorable .
“Both of you have bad tastes . Don’t you find that childish?” Zhou Shuang scorned as she looked at the dress in the display cabinet .
But both her hands instinctively reached out to feel her tummy .
‘Could it be? Could it be real?’
She didn’t dare to dwell further and shook her head to put a stop to her thoughts .
Xuxu lifted her head and glanced askew at her . “Aren’t children stuff supposed to look like this?”
“Let’s go, let’s go . Since you don’t even know which month your babies are due, there’s no need to look at such things now . ” Zhou Shuang rushed her impatiently and raised her feet to move forward .
The more she looked, the more unsettled and frustrated she felt .
The smart Xuxu could tell that Zhou Shuang felt afraid . Hence, she didn’t insist on staying behind and swiftly followed her . They left the maternity and baby department and went down to a lower level .
Knowing Zhou Shuang, she knew she would never discuss with her about the pregnancy . But tonight, she would definitely purchase a pregnancy test kit to check .
Xuxu bought nothing from the mall, but she bought Su Yue a pair of shoes .
One could tell that Zhou Shuang wasn’t in the mood for shopping because she left before them .
Zhou Shuang sat on the toilet bowl and stared at the two lines that showed on the pregnancy test kit—it was as if a thunderbolt had flashed across the blue sky .
For a long time, there wasn’t a slightest reaction from her .
‘Oh no! Finished!’
She felt that her wonderful and perfect world had instantly turned gloomy and gray .
She was pregnant, pregnant with Lu Yinan’s child .
“Oh my God!” After a long time, she finally cried out loud and great sorrow filled her voice .
‘How could this be possible? Why did it turn out this way? Why did this happen?’
She sat in the toilet for almost an hour . She then got up to retrieve her cellphone and called Xuxu immediately .
