Getting back together? Ha!
The world had never revolved around her.
So it was never as she said it would be.
Lian Xinying's nose was red, she reached up to touch it, her fingertips moist.
After making up an excuse to hang up the phone, Lian Xinying pulled out a tissue to wipe her nose.
It seemed she was catching a cold.
No wonder her head hurt so much.
A cold?! How could she afford to catch a cold now?
Lian Xinying thought of the child in her belly and immediately got up.
Even before having children herself, she knew that if a pregnant woman caught a fever or a cold, it could affect the baby inside.
With that thought, her face flushed with anxiety.
After getting out of bed, she donned the down jacket she had bought for the winter, grabbed her bag, and left her house.
It was late autumn, and Lian Xinying's attire drew many second glances.
But she couldn't bother with that now, mistaking her lightheadedness for heartache, not realizing it was due to a cold.
