She had nothing to do after her meal, so she went into Lu Yi's room to use the computer. After some time, the housekeeper came in with a bowl of soup and placed it in front of her.
It was ginger soup with brown sugar. Now only did she realize that her time of the month was approaching, and this soup would reduce the intensity of her cramps.
She picked up the bowl and drained it mouthful by mouthful. The soup was not that tasty and she knew it since her first sip. Yet, she kept drinking. In fact, she felt sad each and every single time she drank the soup, as it meant that she was not pregnant.
Lu Yi and her had used contraception only back when she was in the army, but she had never gotten pregnant even after that. Little Lei was almost turning one, but there was still no news from Lu Yi and her.
Lu Yi said that he was infertile, but she was hoping that a miracle would happen. Maybe God would take pity on them and bless them with a child.
