"Li Xue, I ca to ask if tomorrow you can accompany to the hospital for the ... the abortion process?"
Feng Yi Lan said, keeping her eyes closed. She knew she was cruel to do that but she had no other way other than Li Xue. At this ti, she could rely only on her.
While she kept her eyes closed to avoid the shocked expression of Li Xue, a mont of silence ensued in the air that put her in confusion soon enough.
Her brows jutted together in confusion as she slowly blinked open her eyes to check the reason behind such dead silence.
Li Xue sat there with a cool expression as if just now whatever Feng Yi Lan said was just an illusion where the won had actually not spoken anything.
When Feng Yi Lan saw her so nonchalant, she frowned. "Was I imagining things? Did I not say it actually?"
"..." Li Xue kept mum. To which Feng Yi Lan believed that she might be just imagining things.
"Fine, then I will tell this seriously now. Li Xue, I am pregnant and have booked an appointnt for abortion tomorrow. I didn't an to hide it from you but I wasn't sure how to tell you. And..."
She again said it all in one go but before she could complete, Li Xue interrupted her to ask in a serious tone.
"Does Director Qi have no issue with your abortion?"
Feng Yi Lan paused and stared at Li Xue in confusion. "So, you had heard it in the first ti itself?"
She asked and Li Xue again kept mum. Her expression held no hint of fun or joke.
Her serious silence like that conveyed the answer Feng Yi Lan was looking for.
"Fine, so I got it. I wasn't hallucinating. But tell sothing, I talked about sothing so big and you are still so nonchalant. How co you are so cool with it? Did you already ..."
"Yi Lan, does Director Qi know about it?" Li Xue asked without letting her complete. Her eyes and expressions were telling her how serious she was about that question.
When Feng Yi Lan saw her like that, her lips pressed in a thin line of guilt. As if she was concerned about that one topic.
Looking at her like that, Li Xue could only conclude one thing. While her brows tugged in a frown, she guessed, "Did you not ..."
But just as she said that, Feng Yi Lan shook her head in denial and said, "No, Li Xue. Of course, I have told him about it. He knows about it. And he will also be there tomorrow with . It's just that I ca to ask you so that I can be less scared."
Li Xue didn't understand. "He knows about it and you are scared. Is he forcing you into the abortion?" Although Li Xue highly doubts that one scenario given what she knows about Qi Shuai, other than that no other possibility seems possible.
"Definitely not, Li Xue. It's not him asking to do that. It's . I don't want to enter that phase now. I feel I still want to ..." Defending Qi Shuai, Feng Yi Lan spoke. But her words died down in the midst, as if she had lost her confidence to speak any further.
Her died words might not have delivered any proper aning, but Li Xue understood things very well now. Her tense expressions relaxed a bit as she laid back on the sofa to sit more comfortably.
When Feng Yi Lan saw her like that, her brows tugged together. She imagined Li Xue's reaction in a lot of ways before coming here. But she never thought she would be so calm and nonchalant.
Wasn't this a shocker for her? Not just that she was pregnant out of blue, but she was also getting an abortion. This was sothing really big. Up until now, shouldn't Li Xue have destroyed her out with a hell lot of questions?
"Girl, did you not have anything else to ask? I an given the things, you must be asking what, why and how. But here you are not even asking a single question. What is happening?"
Feng Yi Lan asked and Li Xue simply sat there, taking her rest. Soon a maid ca with a tray and presented her with a glass of drink.
Li Xue stared at the glass of freshly prepared fresh juice and the maid explained, "Madam, Sister Margaret said in your condition taking fluids often will keep you relaxed of anxiety. That's why we prepared this waterlon juice for you."
Li Xue nodded and accepted the glass before smiling. "Thank you. But can you prepare one more glass of it." She requested before looking up at Feng Yi Lan. "I feeling your Third Young Miss also needs this."
Feng Yi Lan didn't understand nor did the maid. But since the maid didn't stand any position to ask, she simply indeed before walking away to comply.
But Feng Yi Lan was not the sa. Seeing the maid walk away, she turned to look back at Li Xue. Seeing her casually drink the juice, she asked, "Girl, what do you an with that?"
Li Xue casually looked at Feng Yi Lan and then shrugged her shoulders. "What? Did you not hear? During pregnancy, it's good to take fresh juices. It keeps away anxiety and also tastes good. Since we are in the sa situation together, you should also have a glass of it. Believe , I can see that you need it more than ."
Feng Yi Lan didn't know what else to say more. Li Xue didn't say sothing wrong but still this was not the thing Feng Yi Lan expected to hear.
Standing up, she asked, "Li Xue, are you serious? I told you I am pregnant and tomorrow, I am going to have the abortion and you are asking to have fruit drinks here. Do you not have anything else to say?"
Li Xue looked up at Feng Yi Lan and blinked. Her lips slowly curled up in a smile. "Abortion? Who said so? I am sure you have yet not understood why you have co to , Yi Lan? It's definitely not for asking to co with you tomorrow."
