Still waiting for the results, there’s sothing urgent to handle, Ji Chicheng went to the car to get the laptop, Ji Anning was in Xiang Yiqing’s small office, nervously clutching the water cup, the water inside no longer warm.
The door was suddenly pushed open from the outside.
Hearing the noise, Ji Anning turned her head nervously and looked toward the door.
It was Xiang Yiqing who walked in, wearing a black long-sleeved T-shirt and blue jeans, looking sunnier than when wearing the white coat.
In his hand was a white supermarket plastic bag.
He looked at Ji Anning’s nervous expression, smiling as he walked over, "No need to be so nervous."
Reaching Ji Anning, he opened the supermarket bag in his hand and first took out a box of milk, "It’s warm."
Then he took out a sandwich.
"Thank you." Ji Anning nodded to express her gratitude, but she didn’t reach out to take the sandwich or milk.
Anxiously waiting for the results, she had no appetite.
Xiang Yiqing sat down across from her, seeing her not moving, he gently advised, "Eat a little, otherwise when Chicheng cos, he’ll still make you eat."
Hearing this, Ji Anning finally picked up the sandwich, unwrapped the packaging, and took a small bite, chewing numbly.
Xiang Yiqing’s voice sounded again from across, "With one less child, he can care for you a bit more, isn’t that good?"
The word ’child’ now felt like a heart-wrenching pain to them, yet they had to face it.
So Xiang Yiqing didn’t deliberately avoid the issue; instead, he candidly analyzed for Ji Anning, "Anning, as a friend, I don’t want to see you so exhausted anymore. In life, you have to make many choices, there’s sacrifice for gain, you can treat it as a choice between another child and Chicheng, which one would you choose?"
The answer didn’t require any thought at all, it would surely be Ji Chicheng.
Even before Xiang Yiqing finished speaking, Ji Anning’s heart had already answered Ji Chicheng, and she seed to feel a slight sense of relief.
Sacrifice for gain, she chose her beloved uncle, and should accept all the difficulties encountered with him, this was sothing she had to face.
...
"The HGC test sample I brought over, are the results out?"
When the ti ca, Xiang Yiqing personally went to the lab window to collect Ji Anning’s test report.
"It’s out."
The doctor at the test window found the report and handed it to Xiang Yiqing with a smile, "Congratulations, Dr. Xiang."
Upon hearing the words ’congratulations,’ Xiang Yiqing already knew the test results.
He reached out to accept the report, simply thanked but did not explain to the lab doctor that she wasn’t his girlfriend and the child wasn’t his.
Such inconsequential misunderstanding wasn’t worth spending ti to clarify.
Xiang Yiqing carried the report back to the office, and upon seeing Xiang Yiqing’s expression, Ji Anning and Ji Chicheng imdiately knew the result.
As he approached, Ji Anning reached out her delicate, slightly trembling fingers first.
Xiang Yiqing handed her the report, the outco displayed on it was as she expected.
The color slowly drained from her face.
For the first ti, Ji Chicheng felt so helpless, in Anning’s mind, he was omnipotent, yet he couldn’t change their blood relation.
Nothing ever bound him, no one or anything ever stopped him from doing as he pleased.
Except for this, he was utterly helpless.
