"You're vomiting like this and saying it's nothing?" Li Man scolded.
Tan Xi Yuan leaned against the sofa and weakly said, "I'm really fine. I just vomited because I smelled something oily."
Upon hearing this, Li Man's heart skipped a beat as she looked at Tan Xi Yuan with concern. "When was your last period?"
"My period has always been irregular. It seems like it's been more than a month or two since it last came," Tan Xi Yuan replied.
After speaking, Tan Xi Yuan realized what Li Man was implying and looked at her impatiently. "Li Man, are you suspecting that I'm pregnant? Let me tell you, it's impossible!"
"Have you taken a pregnancy test?"
"No."
"Then how can you be so sure that you're not pregnant?"
Tan Xi Yuan, annoyed, replied, "Li Man, please don't tease me at a time like this. I know my own body. How could I possibly be pregnant?"
Seeing Tan Xi Yuan so certain, Li Man hesitated for a moment, but Tan Xi Yuan's symptoms were too much like morning sickness to ignore. She quickly stood up and put away the medicine on the coffee table.
Tan Xi Yuan looked puzzled. "Li Man, what are you doing?"
"Wait for me at home, I'll be back soon."
With those words, Li Man hurriedly left the house, carrying her bag.
She was going out to buy a pregnancy test.
There was a pharmacy at the entrance of the residential area, and Li Man bought several different types of pregnancy tests.
When Tan Xi Yuan saw Li Man return with a bag full of things, she asked curiously, "Li Man, what did you buy again?"
Li Man handed the bag to Tan Xi Yuan and said, "Take a test, better safe than sorry. It will put my mind at ease."
Tan Xi Yuan couldn't help but laugh and cry. "What's all this? How should I put it? You must have too much money to spend, buying these things for me is just a waste, you know."
"It's not that expensive. I can afford to waste it. Hurry up and take the test."
Li Man pulled Tan Xi Yuan up from the sofa and pushed her into the bathroom. "Since we've bought them, just take the test."
Tan Xi Yuan helplessly shook her head and took out one of the pregnancy tests from the bag.
In the past, every time she took one of these tests, she was full of hope, but each time ended in disappointment.
After being disappointed for so long, she no longer had any hope.
This time, too, she had no hope.
But when she saw the two red lines, her heart seemed to stop beating in that moment.
She couldn't believe it and rubbed her eyes, then looked again. It was still two lines.
"Ah!"
Tan Xi Yuan let out a scream.
Li Man had been waiting outside the bathroom the whole time. When she heard the scream, she quickly pushed open the door and nervously asked, "Is the result out? What's the matter? Are you pregnant?"
Tan Xi Yuan was so excited that she couldn't speak coherently. She handed the pregnancy test to Li Man. "Look, I... I'm pregnant!"
Li Man quickly took a look and saw two very clear red lines. It was true, she was pregnant!
"Li Man was overjoyed, shaking Tan Xi Yuan's shoulders. 'This is wonderful, Xi Yuan, you're pregnant! You're really pregnant!'
'Yes, I'm pregnant. I'm really pregnant,' Tan Xi Yuan smiled and then burst into tears. 'I'm pregnant, and Xiao San is pregnant too. Our child is coming too late. Waaah...'
Li Man embraced Tan Xi Yuan, gently patting her back to console her. 'Don't cry, having a child is a good thing.'"
