"Oh." Pretending to be calm, I grimaced a little. I didn't want to look too helpless in front of him, so trying my best to look relaxed, I asked, "So… did the one in my belly bleed out?"
Su Qi looked at me with an unfamiliar expression. He was silent for a long time before suddenly asking, "Xiachun, you're pregnant?! Why didn't you tell me? When did this happen? And… whose child is it?"
"Has the baby been aborted?" I asked casually.
Su Qi realized that I was deliberately avoiding the subject. He looked as though he wanted to say something, but stopped. Maybe he was being considerate of me. Under the circumstances, it wasn't like we could sit down and have a proper conversation about this. All he said was, "No. It's an ectopic pregnancy and requires surgery."
His expression was dark, and I wasn't sure what else to say.
"Well then…"
I pursed my lips and felt rather embarrassed, but I had to be thick-skinned. "Can you lend me the money for it?"
