Chapter 143: Chapter 143: Could it be pregnancy?

An Ruo propped herself up and noticed a jewelry box on the bedside table.

She picked it up with a puzzled look and opened it, finding a bracelet with a blue diamond setting inside. The bracelet was beautiful, and obviously quite valuable.

It must have been placed there by Tang Yuchen. Was he intending to give it to her?

An Ruo impassively put the jewelry box back, without giving it a second glance. Such things held no allure for her.

Descending to the living room, Uncle Tao greeted her with a smile, "Young Lady, breakfast is ready for you, please have your breakfast."

An Ruo paused, seeing Uncle Tao’s sincere smile, she understood – Tang Yuchen must have allowed her to eat.

"Thank you, Uncle Tao."

"Young Lady, you’re too polite. It’s my duty to serve you," he replied.

An Ruo smiled faintly at him before sitting down to eat. Uncle Tao probably worried about her getting too hungry and had prepared a large glass of milk, two eggs, and a bowl of preserved egg with lean meat porridge.

Gratitude filled An Ruo’s heart. In this villa that made her feel suffocated, only Uncle Tao was a warmth in her heart.

Picking up the glass, An Ruo took a sip of milk but for some reason, it tasted foul to her, inducing nausea. She put the glass down and rushed to the restroom, where it took her a while to settle down after vomiting.

What was going on lately, this intermittent urge to vomit?

After rinsing her mouth, An Ruo returned to find Uncle Tao waiting outside the bathroom, looking at her with complex eyes, "Young Lady, are you feeling unwell?"

"A little," she replied.

"Have you been feeling nauseous frequently?" he inquired.

Just as An Ruo was about to answer, a thought flashed through her mind, making her heart tremble.

"No, it’s just that I haven’t had much to eat recently, and my stomach feels upset."

"Oh," Uncle Tao looked as though relieved, but also somewhat disappointed.

An Ruo kept her composure, but inside, a storm was brewing.

She remembered that her period hadn’t arrived last month. During that time, she was so exhausted from Tang Yuchen’s torment that she simply hadn’t paid any attention to her menstrual cycle.

Now, thinking it over, something seemed off. Could it be that she was pregnant?

Every time she was intimate with Tang Yuchen, he took no precautions, and neither did she!

Not that they didn’t want to, but she never even considered the possibility of pregnancy!

An Ruo broke out in a cold sweat. How could she have been so careless, so negligent?

What would she do if she really was pregnant?

An Ruo paced anxiously around the room, wondering how she could confirm her pregnancy.

Visiting a hospital would be too conspicuous. After a long thought, she suddenly remembered that a pregnancy test could do the trick.

But she would have to buy one from a convenience store, and she couldn’t go out or ask someone else to purchase it.

This was something she had to keep to herself.

An Ruo made up her mind; she had to find a way to leave the villa.

During dinner with Tang Yuchen that night, An Ruo said to him, "Tomorrow, I’d like to go out for a walk, please let me go out."

The man’s gaze swept over her pale, slender wrist and asked casually, "Do you like the bracelet? You’ve been with me for a while, and I seem to have never given you anything."

So, he gave her the bracelet.

"I don’t like wearing jewelry," she answered incongruously, also indirectly refusing his gift.

Tang Yuchen’s eyes suddenly turned cold, and his tone dropped a few degrees, "Want to go out? List ten good qualities of mine, and I’ll allow you to take a walk."
