221 I Just Fancy You 5 (1/2)
She could only allow herself to cry and let her long-suppressed emotions out when no one else was around.
Heaven had given her a gift, only to take it away again before she could even enjoy it.
Just how did something so unfortunate happen?
What wrong did she do to deserve this?
”Boss, someone is calling you again!” cranked her ringtone.
An Xiaoning whipped her phone out to see that it was a call from Mei Yangyang. She got a grip on her emotions before answering the phone.
”Hello, Yangyang.”
”Sis, have you gone for a checkup at the hospital?” asked Mei Yangyang.
”Yes, I have.”
”Sis, why do you sound like you just cried? You don't have to worry too much if it's just a hormonal imbalance. I'll bring you to the traditional Chinese medicine clinic I went to previously. You'll be fine after taking some medicine for a period of time,” Mei Yangyang reassured her worriedly.
”It's not that. Don't tell anyone, but I underwent an ultrasound scan and the doctor said I'm pregnant,” An Xiaoning said with a sigh.
After a moment of silence, Mei Yangyang said, ”Is that the reason why you're upset…”
”The doctor said it's very likely I'll suffer a miscarriage, and I was advised to go for an abortion.”
Mei Yangyang felt like she was on an emotional rollercoaster.
”Why?”
”I'll tell you the rest when we're home. Come home in the afternoon,” An Xiaoning said in a feeble voice.
”Alright.”
An Xiaoning proceeded to drive back home after ending the call.
As soon as she arrived home, she removed her makeup with some cleansing oil and rinsed her face with water afterwards.
She then laid onto the bed to rest, feeling exhausted and worn out.
Perhaps it was because she was now aware of the existence of a precious baby she was about to lose anytime soon.
She felt like there was a boulder on her chest as she placed her hands atop her abdomen.
Although there were no physical changes to her stomach appearance-wise, she still felt like something was different.
It was her mentality that had changed.
Needless to say, Jin Qingyan was the father of the child.
However, she could no longer tell him about it.
Being told that there was a 90% chance of a miscarriage was akin to being sentenced to death immediately.
Yet, she wanted dearly to keep the child.
She had a burning desire to keep it.
Thus, she decided from now on that she would try her very best to keep the child. Even if she still had to lose it some day, she would at least have no regrets in the end since she had already done everything she could.

After exiting the store at Dongpo District, Xu Jingwen hailed a taxi and made her way to Shi Shaochuan's office. Using the spare key he had given her, she unlocked his car door and got into his car.
Since there was no internet connection in the carpark of his office building, she decided to lay down in the back seat and play some games on her mobile phone while waiting for Shi Shaochuan to get off work.
Shi Shaochuan was the one who had given her the 30 thousand dollars that she returned to An Xiaoning. He had given it to her right away upon hearing that she was owing a debt.
Xu Jingwen accepted the money without hesitation because she was aware of how wealthy he was. In fact, she felt like she had deserved every bit of that sum of money.
After waiting for him for the entire morning, Shi Shaochuan finally appeared, holding a bag of fast food in his hands.
