Ever since young, she had always experienced period cramps. It was also not regular and would skip a few months, but the doctors had assured her that everything was fine. She had taken Chinese dicine to correct the problem and for half a year, everything had beco normal. But soon after, it returned back to the irregular pattern. Too much dication was bad after all, so she went to visit another doctor who assured her once again that everything was fine.
Qiao Anhao had mild discomfort in her stomach, but later that afternoon, it was fine.
After having dinner, Madam Chen asked, "Mrs. Lu, is Mr. Lu working overseas? Why hasn’t he been back?"
The question left Qiao Anhao startled, and after a while, she murmured an inaudible "Yea", then continued to eat her al.
After dinner, Madam Chen specifically heated up a bottle of swallow’s nest that Han Ruchu had given her. Qiao Anhao finished eating it and curled up on the sofa to watch television. Just then, she could feel discomfort in her stomach, she took a blanket to cover herself, afraid that she would get a cold. Gradually, she fell asleep.
