"Ahhhhh!!!!! Ghost!!!!!!! Ghost!!!! Ghost!!!!" he screamed out loud, thinking that it was the same female ghost that was there in his room.
"Xingcheng! Careful!"
Someone yelled at him.
He frowned at the sound of that awfully familiar voice. He recognized that voice. It was the voice of his girlfriend whom he was dating for the past three months.
He quickly opened his eyes and relief filled him when he saw his girlfriend's face. Tears began to fill in his eyes and he cried out loud, hugging her. "Zhizhi!!!! You are here..... Thank God, you are here!!!!! Ah! I am so happy to meet you. You don't know, what almost happened to me... I-I..."
"But, I am not happy," Nan Zhizhi sneered and smacked Pei Xingcheng's uninjured arm, interrupting him harshly.
"Ouch!" Pei Xingcheng exclaimed, surprised at the sudden smack "What was that for?"
Glaring at him, angrily, she narrowed her eyes. "How dare you call me a ghost, Pei Xingcheng? Though I agree that I may look like a bloated whale right now, but I am no ghost."
"No, no, I am not calling you a ghost. There is a beautiful ghost in my room" he explained, looking at her anxiously.
Nan Zhizhi: "....." (What?)
"And why would belittle yourself like that?" he continued, "You never looked like a bloated whale. Infact, you are the most beautiful and the most popular girl in the entire college. Who dares to call you a bloated whale?"
At this moment, his eyes fell down on her big belly. Immediately, he gasped and blurted out in shock. "What the hell!!! Zhizhi, what is that thing?"
SMACK!
Nan Zhizhi placed her hand on her big belly in a protective stance and glared at him. "That is not a thing. It's my stomach, Xingcheng."
He nodded, still shocked. "I know it's your stomach but why is it so big?"
"Because I ate a ballon for my dinner, that's why...."
"What?!!!"
"Ofcourse, I didn't eat a ballon, you idiot," she glared at him. "I am pregnant, Xingcheng!"
Pei Xingcheng: "...."
His mind froze as it tried to process the sudden good news. His girlfriend was pregnant with his child. He was going to be a father! He was going to be a father! Yippee!!!!
Though he never expected to be a father at such a young age, yet, when his girlfriend was standing in front of him with a big stomach, he couldn't help but be a little glad. His mind buzzed with happiness. His eyes beamed with joy on becoming a father and he couldn't keep the grin from his face.
Filled with joy, he forgot all about his fear, all the ghosts in his room. He grabbed his girlfriend's hand and jumped with joy. "Zhizhi, is it true? We are pregnant?"
"No, no, you're not pregnant. I am pregnant," she corrected him with a weird expression on her face.
"Same thing, same thing," he smiled wide. "I am the father, after all..."
Now, Nan Zhizhi was starting to get confused. "Pei Xingcheng, what is wrong with you? You are not the father of my baby...."
"I am not?" Pei Xingcheng stared at her in shock. "What the hell! You are kidding me, right?"
"No, I am serious!" Nan Zhizhi stated seriously. "Why would I joke about his matter? Infact, what is wrong with you, Xingcheng? Why did you ask me such a stupid question? You know, you are not the father of my child."
Hearing that, Pei Xingcheng's shock doubled.
"What?!"
Earlier, when he got the news that his girlfriend was pregnant, he was shocked, but a good shock. But, now knowing that he was not the father of the child in his girlfriend's stomach, his mind collapsed.
His eyes grew wide visibly. He glanced at his girlfriend's pregnant belly, and then looked down at his own body, especially at a certain part of his body. Only one reason came to his mind when he saw that his girlfriend was pregnant but he was not the father.
He stared at her stomach and questioned loudly, "Am I... am I infertile?"
Nan Zhizhi: "....." (Her stupid ex-boyfriend says what?)
She looked at him and a sudden anger began to fill her heart. For the past two days, they all have been worried sick for this guy, praying for him to wake up, to recover, and yet here he was cracking bad jokes with her.
At that moment, all she wanted to do was to pull his ear and punch him in the head. However, when she looked at his injured body, and bandaged head, she have up the thought of beating him.
"Xingcheng!" she hissed at him angrily. "This is not the good time to joke. Look, we are already -"
"I am not joking," he looked at her seriously, interrupting her words. "Am I really infertile? Answer me!"
Nan Zhizhi groaned in her heart and glared at him. "No, you are not!"
Relief filled him immediately and he wiped away the invisible tears from the corner of his eyes. Thank god! So, he was still fertile and all parts of his body were functioning properly. A smile came on his face and he was about the celebrate this good news when suddenly, another thought crept into his mind.
He gazed into his girlfriend's confused eyes and narrowed his eyes while looking down at her pregnant stomach.
Wait a second!
If he was still fertile then why was his girlfriend carrying somebody else's child?
All of a sudden, everything began to make sense. He gasped out loud, his eyes turning wider than a saucer and his hands flew over to cover his open mouth. He took a big step back and looked at his girlfriend with accusing eyes. "You! You! You..... how could you?!"
Nan Zhizhi: ".............." (Now what? What did she do?)
Nan Zhizhi felt weird. "What? Why are you looking at me like that? What's wrong?"
"Zhizhi, how could you?"
"How could I what?" she asked, completely confused.
"ZHIZHI, YOU CHEATED ON ME!!!!!"
