Song Yunshu thought that she had arrived at the hospital flawlessly.
They registered and drew blood for a checkup.
Her best friend Rong Xia stayed by her side the entire time.
It was not until the doctor confirmed that the abortion could be done in the afternoon that the two of them came out of the hospital.
Rong Xia didn't ask a single question and kept her company until noon.
The two of them found a Chinese restaurant near the hospital and had a simple lunch.
During the meal, Song Yunshu had a feeling of eating without any taste, no matter what she put in her mouth.
The two sisters, who had always been talkative, were rarely silent when they met today.
"When did that happen?"
Rong Xia couldn't hold it in any longer until she saw Song Yunshu put down her chopsticks.
"What?"
"When did you have the child? Who is the father of the child? Why didn't the father show up for such a big surgery? Also, you said this morning that you wanted to keep it a secret from people, was it to hide it from Aunt Xiang and your nasty relatives?"
Rong Xia threw a lot of questions at her.
Song Yunshu didn't know which one to answer first.
But with Rong Xia's strong curiosity, Song Yunshu pursed her lips and answered her questions one by one.
"The child...was conceived two months ago. As for the father of the child, I don't know him..."
"What? One night stand? Oh my god, how could you be so bold?"
"Shh, shh, shh...Keep your voice down."
Rong Xia's loud voice almost made Song Yunshu lose face.
Her voice was so loud that it seemed like she wanted everyone in the restaurant to hear her scandal.
If it wasn't for the fact that her hand wasn't long enough, she really wanted to reach over and cover her mouth.
"Well, that thing has already happened. I can't do anything about it. Let the past be the past. There's no point in talking about it anymore. I definitely can't keep this child whose father I don't even know. Also, there's one more thing."
"Go on, I can handle it."
Rong Xia stared at her and took a big gulp of water from the glass beside her.
"I'm married to Huo Cen. Although I'm married to him, I'm very sure that this child isn't his."
"Pfft-"
Rong Xia spat out a mouthful of water.
She managed to control the direction of the spray so that it didn't land on Song Yunshu. Instead, it made a mess around the table.
The Rong family had a certain status in Rong City, so Rong Xia had heard a little about their circle.
Some time ago, she had heard from her friends that Young Master Huo of the Huo family was married to the An family's daughter.
Song Yunshu had also told her about it when the An family went to dinner with the Huo family on the eve of their wedding.
However, how did the bride get replaced by her best friend all of a sudden?
No one had ever told her about this.
Rong Xia suddenly felt as if she had missed out on billions of gossip news.
"Can you, can you repeat who it was with?"
Song Yunshu quickly handed her a tissue to wipe her mouth.
"Huo Cen, the person you know."
"Hurry up and wipe it. You're exaggerating too much. It's as if you don't know what's going on."
Song Shuyun spoke with a slightly resentful tone, but it only earned Rong Xia's disdainful look.
"My dear, if I were to tell you today that I'm married and pregnant, but the child isn't my current husband's but is left behind by an unknown man, and now I want you to accompany me to get an abortion, do you think you would do that? I bet you would be more dramatic than me at that time."
Rong Xia's words left Song Yunshu speechless.
She was right.
If she were in Rong Xia's position, she would have thought that she was crazy.
Song Yunshu adjusted her mood and slowly told her the reason why she and Huo Cen were fated to meet.
Rong Xia, a bystander, listened with relish.
A second ago, she was still brooding over the bombs that her best friend had dropped. In the next second, she had completely changed her attention to a new topic. Her eyes lit up as she listened.
"I thought I was crazy too, but since it's already happened, there's nothing I can do. Fortunately, Huo Cen and I are married by agreement. When the time comes, we'll get a divorce. Moreover, he promised to help me get back Xu'an's ownership. Since it's a win-win situation, why not?"
Song Yunshu held the cup of water in front of her with both hands, trying to absorb some warmth from the warm water.
"It's just that
