Chapter 551 Pregnancy (7)
Who would’ve thought the clerk would also falter under the intense gaze of Shiwu, sweating profusely: "Sorry... picked wrong... slipped up! Just a mistake!""For someone as built as this gentleman, you should definitely use the extra large SIZE!"
Saying this, the clerk swiftly swapped the box, not forgetting to boast.
Qiao Mo’s face was a bit flushed with embarrassment, finally regaining her composure: "Um... I’m not here to buy this..."
"Huh?" The clerk was startled for a moment, then put on a look of understanding as if he knew everything.
"Then you must be buying this!" Saying this, the clerk then pulled out a box of morning-after pills.
Qiao Mo laughed awkwardly, whispering: "I’m buying that pregnancy test?"
"Oh~! Should’ve said so earlier!"
With this, the clerk took out several pregnancy tests for Qiao Mo. Qiao Mo turned to block Shiwu’s view and quickly stuffed the tests into her bag.
The clerk mysteriously pulled out another box of pills: "Do you need this?"
Qiao Mo glanced at it, only to see the glaring words abortion pills written on it...
She couldn’t help but roll her eyes, and after paying, she hurriedly left the pharmacy.
Qiao Mo swore that given what just happened with the clerk, she would never visit this pharmacy again in her lifetime.
Once home, Qiao Mo felt a bit anxious. She darted into the bathroom and didn’t come out for a long time.
Shiwu, after safely escorting her, left her alone.
For a while, the entire second floor was just Qiao Mo curled up in the bathroom.
"Two lines..." Qiao Mo looked at the red lines on the pregnancy test in a daze; it really was... two lines.
Somewhat disbelieving, Qiao Mo tested twice more.
It wasn’t until every pregnancy test in her hand showed two red lines that she had no choice but to accept the fact that she was truly pregnant.
Qiao Mo walked out of the bathroom, a bit dazed, and sat on the edge of the bed, still distracted.
Pregnant?
Really pregnant...
She gently placed her hand on her belly, and for an instant, various emotions surged through her. The original daze was gradually replaced by joy, a touch of unease and fear sprouted in her heart, but mostly, it was happiness.
With her mind finally back in the present, Qiao Mo immediately searched for her phone, ready to call Fu Nancheng.
The phone rang for a while before connecting: "Hello."
Qiao Mo suppressed the joy in her heart, sounding a bit excited: "When will you be back?"
Fu Nancheng was just outside the address given by Mrs. Chen, and had yet to go in when he received Qiao Mo’s call.
"It might take a while, remember to eat first."
Qiao Mo bit her lip, uncertain whether to speak up several times, yet in the end, she held back, planning to tell him in person when he returned.
"Then... please come back early." Qiao Mo’s heart still carried a small trace of excitement.
After hanging up the phone, Qiao Mo couldn’t help but start to let her mind wander.
She ate a little randomly, then took a shower and didn’t have the heart to do anything else, staying curled up on the sofa staring at the TV, her hand resting on her belly all the while.
There’s really a baby now...
Is it a boy or a girl?
Who would the baby resemble more?
He looks so handsome, hopefully more like him.
Will he be very happy?
She seems to have never asked him if he preferred a boy or a girl.
Qiao Mo stared at the TV, yet her mind kept wandering.
But an hour passed... two hours passed...
The sky had completely darkened, yet he still hadn’t returned.
Qiao Mo didn’t know how many times she had gotten up from the sofa to run to the window facing the front door to look out.
The yard was still completely dark, with just a few scattered lights, but no sign of him anywhere.
