Chapter 452: Chapter 452: Sister Lin, Are You Pregnant?
Ai Lin nodded with a smile, "Yes, we’ve been together for seven years. People say there’s a seven-year itch, so this year we have to quickly get our marriage license to prevent him from running away! Hahaha..."
"Hahaha... Sister Lin, your thinking is quite different from others."
Ai Lin: "My boyfriend treats me very well, we were classmates in graduate school and only got together after graduation, so you could say we went from campus to marriage."
"He usually treats me well, especially last year when I nearly had an accident, now he’s particularly nervous about me, afraid something will happen to me again."
"And his family treats me nicely too, usually..."
Lin Xiaoyan and Ai Lin sat in the coffee shop, spending the entire morning there.
Lin Xiaoyan listened to Ai Lin talking about her love story with her boyfriend.
Listening to it made her feel envious; long-lasting relationships are both admirable and astonishing.
"Oh, it’s noon already, look at me, I talked so much I lost track of time."
Ai Lin realized it was already noon, she was too caught up in talking about her boyfriend, feeling quite embarrassed.
"Let’s go eat and talk about being the bridesmaid over lunch."
Ai Lin took Lin Xiaoyan’s hand and prepared to leave.
At the moment Ai Lin grabbed Lin Xiaoyan’s hand, a series of images appeared before Lin Xiaoyan’s eyes.
As Ai Lin held her arm walking out of the coffee shop, Lin Xiaoyan’s expression turned serious.
She slightly lowered her head, quickly "watching" those images.
After all the images "played" out, Lin Xiaoyan listened to Sister Lin happily talk about her wedding photos, feeling quite complicated inside.
"Oh right, I haven’t shown you my wedding photos yet, come on, let me show you."
Ai Lin excitedly opened her wedding photos to share with Lin Xiaoyan.
Lin Xiaoyan took it, looking at the handsome couple in the photos.
"They’re beautiful, you can tell just from the wedding photos that your fiancé loves you very much."
Lin Xiaoyan said sincerely, in every wedding photo, the man’s gaze towards Sister Lin was filled with love.
She believed Sister Lin’s words, that her boyfriend truly loved her and treated her very well.
It’s just...
Such loving people, yet they experienced such things and ended up with tragedy.
"I’ve been really into spicy food lately; let’s have hotpot for lunch, I want it extra spicy!"
Ai Lin suggested.
Lin Xiaoyan glanced at Sister Lin’s belly, nodded, "Sure, I’m craving hotpot too."
The two went to a hotpot restaurant, Lin Xiaoyan couldn’t handle too spicy food, she opted for mildly spicy.
Ai Lin chose the extra spicy.
The food was soon cooked, watching Ai Lin eat the spicy food, Lin Xiaoyan admired her greatly.
She laughed and said, "Sister Lin, I remember you didn’t used to handle spicy food so well."
Ai Lin: "Hahaha, I don’t know either, but recently I’ve just been craving spicy food. Last night, I couldn’t sleep because I was hungry, so I ordered some spicy turkey noodles, and oh boy, it was so satisfying."
Watching Ai Lin eat nonstop, Lin Xiaoyan said, "Sister Lin, could you be pregnant?
I heard that pregnant people often have a change in appetite."
Ai Lin suddenly looked up, "Ah? Pregnant? That’s impossible!"
Lin Xiaoyan smiled slightly and didn’t continue, she bowed her head, eating her food.
A moment later, Ai Lin stopped what she was doing.
She took out her phone, looking at something nervously.
Lin Xiaoyan: "Sister Lin, what’s wrong?"
Ai Lin stared at her phone, appearing confused, "Xiaoyan."
"I... my period is five days late; could I... really be pregnant?"
Lin Xiaoyan raised her eyebrows slightly and stood up, "Sister Lin, you continue eating. There’s a pharmacy right across; I’ll go buy a pregnancy test for you; you can try it in a bit."
Having said that, Lin Xiaoyan quickly left the hotpot restaurant.
"Hey!"
Ai Lin watched as Lin Xiaoyan dashed out of the store, and she was amused and perplexed. How can this girl be more anxious than she is?
But...
Ai Lin gently touched her stomach, recollecting the recent oddities, and she figured she might really be pregnant.
Outside, Lin Xiaoyan exhaled lightly; in those images she "saw," Sister Lin, overwhelmed with grief, directly miscarried later on.
Without her knowledge, the baby came, then left.
It directly intensified the blow to Sister Lin, and because of this, Sister Lin eventually couldn’t endure losing her loved one and baby, choosing suicide.
After buying the pregnancy test, Lin Xiaoyan quickly returned to the hotpot restaurant, wondering if knowing she was pregnant this early would change Sister Lin’s wedding...
"Sister Lin, I got it, you can do the test quickly."
Lin Xiaoyan handed a black plastic bag to Ai Lin, with the pregnancy test she just bought inside.
Ai Lin accepted it nervously, tightly holding the pregnancy test, and said softly, "Then I’ll... go do the test?"
Lin Xiaoyan: "Hurry, hurry, I’m waiting for your good news."
Ai Lin: "Okay."
Ten minutes later, Lin Xiaoyan still didn’t see Sister Lin coming out of the restroom, feeling a bit worried, just as she was about to get up to check, Sister Lin emerged.
Seeing her expression, Lin Xiaoyan knew the test result.
Ai Lin sat down, her eyes sparkling, a smile she couldn’t hide on her face.
Lin Xiaoyan: "Sister Lin, what’s the result?"
Ai Lin nodded heavily.
Lin Xiaoyan joyfully offered her congratulations.
Ai Lin couldn’t eat anymore; she couldn’t wait to go home and tell her boyfriend the good news.
"Xiaoyan, you finish eating, I... I want to head home first. I’ll call you in the evening to talk about the bridesmaid thing."
Lin Xiaoyan: "Okay, should I take you home?"
Ai Lin: "No need, no need, you eat up, you haven’t had much yet.
Oh by the way, I invited you to this meal, so I’ll settle the bill at the counter, and you can just leave directly when you’re done."
With that said, Ai Lin went to pay the bill, then quickly took a cab home.
Lin Xiaoyan continued eating hotpot, her mind continuously recalling the images she just "saw," thinking about how to prevent those things from happening.
Thinking of Sister Lin, Lin Xiaoyan couldn’t help but sigh.
It’s not easy for Sister Lin and her boyfriend.
Last year, she nearly had an accident.
This year, her boyfriend is about to have trouble.
Sigh.
In the evening, Ai Lin joyfully arranged with Lin Xiaoyan to try on bridesmaid dresses the next day, but scheduled it for the afternoon since she had a hospital checkup in the morning.
"Sister Lin, how many bridesmaids do you need?"
Lin Xiaoyan asked.
Upon hearing this, Ai Lin couldn’t help but smile wryly, "Didn’t I tell you yesterday, I don’t have any friends here, just you, so there’s likely to be only one bridesmaid.
My boyfriend is coordinating with me; however many bridesmaids I find, he’ll match with groomsmen."
"All my roommates are married now, so besides you, there’s no one else to be my bridesmaid..."
Hearing this, Lin Xiaoyan said, "Actually, Sister Lin, I have a friend, the one who ate with us last time, she also wants to..."
Lin Xiaoyan hadn’t finished speaking before Ai Lin readily agreed.
"Sure! I would be very happy!"
