The more Tong Yao thought about it, the more uncomfortable she beca. Suddenly an idea ca to mind: go to the hospital and abort it?
Once the idea ca to mind, Tong Yao subconsciously clutched her tummy and her face turned pale. She was disturbed by the thought and subconsciously wanted to reject the idea-- --She didnt even have ti to wonder where her subconsciousness ca from.
Then she began to worry about how to tell her family. She could already imagine that two hours after she told them, her parents would drive a tank over and ram through the bases front door
While her mind wandered, she didnt notice that the sound of water from the bathroom stopped. Lu Sicheng ca out of the bathroom with a bath towel wrapped around him. Water beads dripped down from his broad and solid shoulders Tong Yao looked up when she heard the door open. If it was any other ti, she would probably note how attractive he looked. But now, without knowing why, a lump suddenly ca into her throat and her eyes turned red. Her tears dripped down like the water beads on Lu Sichengs shoulders-- --
Just after exiting the bathroom, Lu Sicheng saw Tong Yao holding the small blanket and crying on the bed. He was a little baffled.
Without getting near, he asked: Whats going on?
Then he realized that he was asking for trouble by phrasing it that way, so he hurriedly added: Dont cry, whats there to cry about.
Even though he was still confused, he knew he couldnt just stand there. He walked over to the bed, used the towel to randomly wipe off the water on his body, and without bothering to put on his pants, he climbed onto the bed in his underwear. Then he tightly held Tong Yao, who had hardly cried in the past few months, but was crying like a dam had burst. He patted her back and waited till she had cald down sowhat before carefully asking: What did you say just now?
Tong Yao looked up and stared at him with her reddish eyes. After a while, she spoke with a heavy nasally sound: Pregnant, your fault.
It was simple and direct, forceful and resonating.
Lu Sicheng: ......
His head was much clearer now after the shower-- --He had fully woken up when he sat up in the bed earlier and now he was even more sure that he wasnt in a dream earlier.
Lu Sicheng was quiet for a dozen seconds while all sorts of the thoughts went through his head. When he looked down again at the person in his arms, his dark brown pupils were calm and he had made up his mind-- --
Even he was surprised at how fast he had co to the decision. Everything still felt very surreal as if he was still in a dream with Tong Yao in his arms.
He was about to open his mouth but happened to glance at Tong Yaos reddish eyes and the uneasiness in them. He suddenly changed his mind, lifted up his big hand to tidy her ssy hair, and gently asked: Whats your plan then?
Tong Yao was terribly upset at the ti and didnt notice tenderness and accommodation in his voice. The scenes for her imagined TV drama ca to mind again-- --Hearing his question, she automatically thought he was going to shirk on the responsibility. She felt like opening the window to howl and cry to the outside and pity herself for eting a person like him!
What does my plan an? Its your son and you ask ! Tong Yao pushed Lu Sicheng away and stood up on the bed to stare at him from above: Itll be the closed training after two days, then, a month later, well have to go to Arica for the world tournant. And you want to go to the hospital to abort him? Dont you know itll hurt? Havent you heard that you need to do the one month confinent even if its a miscarriage?[1] If not, youll have a lot of health issues later on. Tell , how can I be playing gas on stage? Do I ask the organizer to switch drinking water to birds nest soup with rock sugar? But all of these things arent the point, the point is that it really hurts! Besides, have you heard those ghost stories about aborted babies? I dont want to have a little ghost hanging on my shoulder whenever I take a picture in the future. The little ghost will be pitiful and Ill be pitiful! What do you an let decide? Does that an after Ive made the decision then you wont have any responsibility later-- --
Before Tong Yao finished, Lu Sicheng pulled her down with one hand and used the other big hand to cover her mouth-- --When she fell onto the soft blanket in his arms, the tip of her nose bumped into his solid shoulder and her breathing was a little erratic from being so agitated
She made a couple of wu, wu sounds and Lu Sicheng took his hand away from her mouth.
Tong Yao was dejected: Im scared of the pain.
Lu Sicheng looked at Tong Yaos head which was looking downwards. Though he couldnt see her face, he could tell how upset she was. He was speechless at her reaction and pursed his lips and sulkily said: No one is asking you to go to the hospital to abort it. What are you afraid of?
Tong Yao abruptly raised her head with wide eyes.
Her eyes t those dark brown pupils.
Tong Yao abruptly lowered her head again.
Lu Sicheng: I havent even uttered a word, what are you angry about?
Tong Yaos lips twitched and said drily: Pregnant won are all quite irritable.
Lu Sicheng: ......
Lu Sicheng wanted to say that he had only heard that pregnant won were all filled with the glow of motherhood and never had he heard any nonsense about how they would be irritable His lips moved a bit, but eventually he decided to keep his mouth shut.
