Chapter 672: Keeping It Secret
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
On her way home from work, Shu Pan went to a 24-hour pharmacy and bought a few pregnancy test kits.
Gu Shaoting sent her a text in the afternoon informing her that he would be away on a business trip for two days, so she could take the test at home and not face him.
After worrying the whole way home, Shu Pan felt like she had run out of energy when she arrived home.
She changed into slippers at the foyer before she walked into the living room, put her bag down and sat on the sofa to take a breather.
Auntie Li went to pick Joy up from school. Shu Pan usually picked Joy up but because she was shocked by the sudden possibility today and felt off balance, she asked Auntie Li to pick her up.
But they were not home yet. Joy’s grandpa also went to her uncle’s house and would only return in a few days. Shu Pan was alone at home and the house felt a little deserted.
She sat for a while before she stood up reluctantly, opened her bag, took out the pharmacy paper bag and walked into the bathroom.
Since no one was at home, she didn’t need to be discreet but she locked the bathroom door anyway.
Shu Pan didn’t know if it was because she was nervous or stressed, her fingers trembled as she took out the pregnancy test kits and painstakingly unboxed them.
It took her a while to accept the fact that she was pregnant!
She put the pregnancy test kits and the boxes they came in back into the paper bag and threw everything into the trash can.
She then leaned against the wall and stared blankly into space.
Shu Pan didn’t know how she came out of the bathroom. Her emotions were very complicated and contradictory.
She felt joy as well as worry.
She smiled one moment and then stared blankly into space the next. She sat down slowly on the sofa and leaned back. She then stared up at the ceiling hugging a cushion.
She was pregnant with Gu Shaoting’s child. If it wasn’t for what happened the day before yesterday, she would have told him right away. After all, this was the treasure they had been looking forward to for a long time. But she didn’t feel like telling him now. She would keep it secret for the time being.
She would wait for him to return from his business trip and see how he performed. The scene of him hugging Charlene was like a dagger to her heart, stabbing her from time to time.
It was Tong Fei before, and now it was Charlene. Were there other women he was involved with?
She didn’t even dare to think about it. Her idea of love was very pure and simple. No ambiguous relationships. To her, there should be no space for even the smallest issues or grievances in a romantic relationship.
