Chapter 649 - Slap Yourself! She Is Forget Chuan! (4) (1/2)

Xia Nuannuan shook her head. “It’s nothing. My stomach has been acting up. It’s nothing serious.”

With a wave of her hand, she stood up straight and let Qiao Lian lead her out of the restroom.

As they walked out, they saw Xia Yehua standing near the doorway, giving Xia Nuannuan a strange look. She asked, “Have. You. Had. Your. Period. This. Month?”

Xia Yehua’s speech was slurred due to the stroke. However, she made an effort to say those words one at a time, clearly.

With a blank look, Xia Nuannuan shook her head at the question and said, “No, I haven’t.”

Then, as though suddenly realizing something, her expression changed.

With a look of disbelief, her gaze fell on her own abdomen.

Still looking at her intently, Xia Yehua asked again, “Then. Are. You. Pregnant?”

Color drained from Xia Nuannuan’s face.

Qiao Lian held Xia Yehua and said, “Mom, Nuannuan doesn’t have a boyfriend.”

A sudden look of realization appeared on Xia Yehua’s face. “Then. Surely. It’s. Not. It. Must. Be. Her. Stomach. Go. To. The. Hospital. For. A. Checkup.”

Xia Nuannuan shook her head and said immediately, “I- I can go by myself. Aunt Xia, please don’t worry.”

As soon as she said this, she went upstairs.

After a short while, she came back downstairs with her bag. “Sister Qiao Lian, Aunt Xia, I have something to attend to, I need to leave for a bit.”

Qiao Lian was puzzled as she watched Xia Nuannuan leave the house.

But there was only so much she could ask without prying into the girl’s private affairs. After all, she wasn’t part of the family.

She then helped Xia Yehua to her seat at the dining table as they got ready for dinner.

Just as she sat down, her cell phone rang.

She picked up the call and heard an unfamiliar voice say, “How do you do? I’m calling from Lot’s business office. May I know if you’re Coach Qiao from CQ Team?”

After a short pause, Qiao Lian nodded and said, “Yes, that’s me.”

“So, we are planning an activity and need photos for the occasion. We were wondering if it would be too much trouble for you to bring your team members and come to our office?”

Having won the Beijing regional competition, it was inevitable that all sorts of publicity would follow. There was no way to avoid this.
