Chapter 245: Suspected Pregnancy 2_1

"Alright, alright! Zhilan, could you step out for a moment?" Bian Xiulin waved for He Zhilan to come out, she came over to discuss something.

"Oh!" He Zhilan nodded, following Bian Xiulin out of the ward. They...

(Empty )

...stood at the door and didn't go far. "What's wrong? Is there something happening with my brother?"

"It's nothing, don't worry, it's a private matter, it's not related to your brother!" Bian Xiulin shook her head, then lowered her voice, "Um, do you have any spare sanitary pads I could use? My period arrived two days early, which I didn't expect. I've asked a few female nurses, but none of them had any, so I came to try my luck here. If all else fails, I'll have to ask Xing Ye to bring me a packet."

"Sanitary pad?" He Zhilan shook her head. "Or should I ask my two female classmates?"

"That works too!" Bian Xiulin nodded, she would only call Xing Ye as a last resort.

He Zhilan asked Bian Xiulin to wait for a bit and then returned to the ward. She asked her classmates, Jiang Biyun and Chen Xiting, and luckily, Chen Xiting had one in her bag. Only then did Chen Xiting follow He Zhilan out of the ward.

"Oh, it's for you Dr. Bian? I thought He Zhilan needed it! Good timing, I was expecting my period in the next few days as well, so I carry some just in case. Is one enough?" As Chen Xiting spoke, she set down the small backpack she'd been carrying. She kept chatting with He Zhilan, "By the way, when was the last time you had your period, Zhilan? As far as I recall, you and Jiang Biyun should be around the same time, right?"

"One is enough, I'll be off work in two hours! Gotta go! Thank you, Zhilan's classmate!" Bian Xiulin took the item and, like a thief, quickly stashed it in her pocket and left.

Chen Xiting swore, her inquiry was merely a casual curiosity. Yet, as soon as Dr. Bian left, He Zhilan was left pondering about it.

"What's wrong? Let's go in." Chen Xiting gently nudged He Zhilan.

He Zhilan nodded, then followed Chen Xiting back into the ward with stiff steps.

As she walked, she tried hard to remember the last time she had her period.

It seemed... the last time she recalled was a week before the National Day when she visited the military camp, after that, she had no recollection!

After she returned, she was constantly worried about He Teng's mission, waiting for his call every day. She was also troubled by things related to her senior sister Liao and Ding Long, so she overlooked this matter.

It appeared that her last period was over one and a half months ago!

Once He Zhilan realized the time, she suddenly looked up at He Teng, her gaze filled with reproach.

Could she really be this unlucky? Could she really be pregnant in her first year of college?

All of this was He Teng's fault! It must have been their visit to the military camp that "caused" it! Those nights, he tormented her, probably leaving his "seeds" in her body several times!

At that time, there were no contraceptives available, and He Zhilan didn't give much thought to contraception. She hadn't been pregnant or a mother in her previous life, so, in this life, she never considered these issues.

He Zhilan scratched her head, the more she thought about this speculation, the more frustrated she became!

"What's wrong?" As an outstanding soldier, He Teng would be a fool if he didn't notice something off about the way his wife was looking at him.

From the moment that He Zhilan suddenly looked at him, he noticed that her gaze was filled with reproach and a hint of anger. Apart from that, there also seemed to be a trace of inexplicable shyness.
