"Alex!" Lan Xi'er couldn't help raising her voice, "Can you, don't mention that person in front of me! You know..."
It's fine if others don't know, but Alex is the person who knows her best and the past best. She didn't understand that in the past so many years, he could keep silent and never mentioned this person in front of her. But why have you opened her wounds again and again recently.
"Xi'er, do you... still have feelings for him?" Seeing her annoyed, Alex made her a cup of black tea and gently placed it on the desk, "Tell me the truth."
"No!" Lan Xi'er picked up the black tea and took a sip angrily, "Can we change the subject?"
"Okay! Let's change the subject... The cooperation contract with Tang Corporation is about to expire soon." Alex glanced at her secretly while talking.
"Alex!" Lan Xi'er irritatedly put the teacup back on the table.
"What's wrong?" Alex looked at her innocently, "I'm just talking about business!"
"..." Lan Xi'er stroked her forehead helplessly.
...
Lan Xi'er tried hard to forget what happened that night. However, a month later... she discovered something like a bolt from the blue.
She has always had regular menstruation, but she didn't come! She was a little flustered, but still forced herself to calm down.
Many years ago, the doctor said that she might not be able to have children in this life. So, after what happened that night, she didn't think about taking any post-event contraceptive measures.
After half a month of anxiety, she finally couldn't bear to go to the pharmacy to buy a pregnancy test stick under the daily torture.
The result of the test made her fall into the abyss in an instant—she was pregnant!
"Impossible, it's absolutely impossible..." She staggered back a few steps while muttering to herself, and fell to the cold floor.
At this time, Alex just came home from get off work, just opened the door and saw her in a daze, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help her up: "Xi'er! What's wrong with you? Why are you sitting on the ground in such cold weather? "
Lan Xi'er, however, seemed not to have heard what he said, staring blankly at the sky outside the window.
"Alex, I... am pregnant." She spit out these words mechanically like a puppet.
"What?" Alex's eyes widened suddenly. After a while, he just calmed down, helped her to the sofa and sat down.
The atmosphere between the two was somewhat silent, Alex hesitated for a long time before asking cautiously: "Who is the father of the child? Is it... him?"
He knew that Lan Xi'er didn't want to hear that person's name again. But he knew better that Lan Xi'er thought that she would never be a mother for the rest of her life, so this child must be very precious to her. Therefore, the father of the child is also very important.
"Yeah." Lan Xi'er nodded, looking at Alex helplessly, "Alex, what should I do? Didn't the doctor say..."
"Xi'er, calm down and listen to me." Alex grabbed her hand and comforted her softly, "The doctor just said that you may not be able to conceive. But in medicine, this is also a matter of probability. Maybe only 1 % probability, but it does not mean that you are completely hopeless."
Lan Xi'er listened to what he said in a daze, and did not recover from the shock after a long time. This child, she will definitely not give up again.
