Ling Yunshu looked at Ling Chuxia’s still flat belly, but a sense of unease began to rise bit by bit within her. Eating fish was not inherently an issue; it was the fishy sll that made her want to vomit, right?
And wasn’t the urge to vomit at the sll of fish generally a sign of being pregnant?
But how could that be possible?
How could Ling Chuxia possibly be pregnant?
"Xiaxia, are you... are you...?" Ling Yunshu’s voice involuntarily carried a tremble, unable to utter the words "pregnant."
Ling Chuxia slightly lifted her eyes to look at Ling Yunshu’s suddenly changed complexion, knowing that she had already guessed. Initially unsure of how to broach the subject with Ling Yunshu, now she could speak directly.
Ling Chuxia swallowed hard, trying her best to suppress the guilt in her heart, then t Ling Yunshu’s eyes. Her dry lips moved, and she softly said, "Elder sister... I, I am pregnant."
Although she had vaguely suspected it, when Ling Chuxia actually spoke those words, Ling Yunshu was sharply jolted, her eyes widening, pupils rapidly contracting, utterly unable to process the news.
Ling Chuxia was really pregnant?
Why?
Why would this happen? How could this happen?
Ling Yunshu’s eyes were wide open, showing shock and confusion. Her pretty, flushed face turned pale instantaneously, frighteningly pale, "You said, you are pregnant?"
Her voice trembled terribly, the words barely coherent.
Ling Chuxia looked at Ling Yunshu’s instantly pale face, feeling a sting in her heart, trembling uncontrollably. She suddenly rembered three years ago, when Mrs. Shi chose her and Shi Che agreed without hesitation to marry her, her face had been just like it was now.
As if from the peak of happiness, she had fallen straight into an abyss, shattered to pieces.
Back then, it was Mrs. Shi who had caused her that pain, but now, it was her... her... she had pushed her dearest elder sister down herself.
Ling Chuxia could no longer look Ling Yunshu in the eyes. She lowered her eyelids and clasped her hands tightly, her nails digging fiercely into her flesh, unaware of the pain, muttering in a low voice, "Elder sister, I’m sorry... I’m sorry."
I’m sorry? These one or two apologies shattered Ling Yunshu’s last vestige of hope.
Ling Chuxia was pregnant, pregnant with Shi Che’s child...
How could this happen... How?
She had finally co back, finally had a chance to get close to Shi Che, and Ling Chuxia was pregnant?
But, weren’t Ling Chuxia and Shi Che supposed to be on bad terms? How could Shi Che let her beco pregnant? How could she be pregnant?
After the extre shock ca extre anger, but Ling Yunshu knew that anger would be of no benefit to her at this ti, and she couldn’t afford to display it towards Ling Chuxia.
Ling Yunshu took several deep breaths, forcibly swallowing the rage in her heart. She looked at Ling Chuxia, a trace of moisture surfacing in her eyes, her voice low and hoarse, choked with emotion, "Xiaxia... you... didn’t you promise, you were just keeping this place for ? Why...?"
Her words trailed off, as if she was deeply stricken, making even speech seem incredibly difficult.
The sound of Ling Yunshu’s sobbing reached Ling Chuxia’s ears, causing her to tremble uncontrollably.
