Jiang Yan was feeling unwell when she was suddenly pulled up. A wave of dizziness swept over her head, and she vomited again, instantly staining Jin Lan's expensive suit with filth.
"You..." Jiang Yan tried to speak, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she felt the urge to vomit again. She felt like she was truly doomed. Such a severe stomach ailment, could it really be late-stage stomach cancer?
"Get in the car!" Jin Lan, disregarding her nausea, shoved her into his car and drove towards the hospital.
"What do you want? Let me out of here." Jiang Yan glared angrily at the overbearing and rude man beside her. She wanted nothing to do with him right now.
"When did you start throwing up?" Jin Lan, suppressing the churning in his chest, asked.
"What business is it of yours! Didn't we agree we were done with each other?" Jiang Yan was extremely agitated and wanted to get out of the car, but the doors were locked, and she couldn't open them.
"How is it not my business? You might be pregnant." Jin Lan felt an urge to kill when he mentioned this possibility.
Jiang Yan was stunned by his words, freezing in place and unable to utter a sound. Then, she let out an exaggerated laugh. "Ha, don't joke with me. I can't be pregnant! That's absolutely impossible!"
"Did you or did you not take the contraceptive pill!" Jin Lan was also extremely agitated. How much effort had it taken him to convince himself to forget that matter and accommodate his nephew and her?
But if she was truly carrying his child... how could he accommodate?
"I... I... I didn't take the pill, but my period had just ended, so it was a safe period." Jiang Yan stammered an explanation.
Jin Lan slammed on the brakes, looking at her incredulously. "You really didn't take it?"
"I... I..." Jiang Yan was momentarily speechless. Wasn't it impossible to get pregnant during the safe period?
"Is your brain filled with straw? I'm a doctor, and I told you to take it for your own good! The so-called safe period is only relative, not absolute!" Jin Lan felt like he was going to be angered to death by this girl.
Jiang Yan was also dumbfounded, but she refused to believe she was pregnant with this man's child. She shook her head. "Impossible, I can't be pregnant, absolutely impossible!"
Jin Lan calmed down at this point and said, "There's a drugstore ahead. I'll buy some pregnancy tests, and we'll check."
As he spoke, he pulled the car over to the side of the road. Jiang Yan felt like crying. If she was truly pregnant with this man's child, how could she face Chu Yu?
She was Chu Yu's girlfriend, yet she was carrying his uncle's child... How could this be?
Jin Lan quickly bought several pregnancy tests and brought the dazed Jiang Yan back to his home. Jiang Yan's mind was in a mess, and she didn't realize she had been brought to Jin Lan's house until they entered.
Jin Lan handed her the pregnancy tests, suppressing the churning in his chest as he explained how to use them, and then pushed her into the bathroom.
A few minutes later, Jiang Yan emerged, her face pale, clutching several used pregnancy tests.
Jin Lan immediately grabbed the tests. All of them showed two lines.
Jin Lan angrily threw the tests to the ground and cursed. Jiang Yan looked at the agitated man before her, felt her vision darken, and fainted the next second.
Jin Lan was startled and quickly reached out to support her. He called her name a couple of times, but she didn't respond. He gently placed her on the sofa.
...
Jiang Yan woke up and looked at the unfamiliar surroundings. She remembered it was Jin Lan's home. She couldn't stay here any longer. Jiang Yan threw off the covers and ran out barefoot.
In the time it took Jin Lan to make a phone call, he returned to find the sofa empty. He immediately went out to look for her and only saw Jiang Yan leaving in a taxi.
