Chapter 74: False Pregnancy
As she was on her way back with Michael, Tang Yu had been planning to tell Tang Ye about what happened tonight as soon as possible to avoid complicating things.
In the end, she had been so focused on trying to escape that she had completely forgotten about it.
After confessing everything, Tang Yu asked her worriedly, “Was I being too cold to him?”
“Not at all. I’m usually like this.”
She was a little puzzled. “He looks very rich and has such a good family background. It’s not good for you to be so cold to him like this, right?”
“Don’t worry, he likes me like this. His family… is really quite powerful. Way more powerful compared to ours. We’re not on the same level at all.”
“If you’re with him, I’m afraid you’ll be bullied by them… I heard he has a very bad elder brother.”
“Don’t just talk about his older brother, even his entire family is very difficult to deal with!” Tang Ye looked a little melancholic, “Since his family doesn’t agree with our relations.h.i.+p, we can only date secretly. I already planned to break up with him on multiple occasions, but he was very insistent and treated me very well. I figured later on that…Well, I really like him, so why not stay together with him and persevere on? Who asked him to be so handsome that I can’t even give up on him?”
Tang Yu comforted her sister.
They chatted for a long time. They talked about everything; everything that they had missed out on after they had separated.
Tang Yu told her everything, except about Carlisle and Miles. Miles was nowhere to be found anyway, so telling her would only make her worry for nothing.
The two of them did not sleep well at night. They alternated, taking turns to go to the bathroom just to vomit. Every time they did, they would retch non-stop before leaning to the side to rest in discomfort.
Tang Yu asked her, “What’s wrong with you? Did you eat something bad?”
Tang Ye had a worried look on his face. “I don’t know either. I’ve been feeling nauseous recently.”
After hearing her sister’s condition in detail, she realized they were exactly the same. “Could it be that you’re… pregnant?”
“Pregnant? That would be great if I’m pregnant. That way, I can be with Michael legally. How do you know so much…” Tang Ye suddenly looked at Tang Yu in surprise. “Could it be that you’re…”
“I’m pregnant…” Tang Yu told her honestly. “I vomit a little too much in the early stages of pregnancy.”
Tang Ye was so shocked that his mouth was wide open. Then, she became angry. “Who was it?! Which b.a.s.t.a.r.d dared to get my sister pregnant? I’m going to beat him to death right now!”
“Don’t be angry, don’t be angry. It’s my husband. I’m married.”
Tang Ye was even more shocked. “You’re married?! Why didn’t you tell me?!”
Tang Yu seemed to be in a difficult position. After thinking for a long time, she decided to reveal the truth. “Your brother-in-law is a senior in my university. He’s British. We have just arrived in San Francisco and are planning to stay for a while.”
“That’s great!” Tang ye cheered softly. “Will you live in San Francisco in the future?”
“I don’t think so… Don’t worry about me for now. Go to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow.”
“You have to go with me to witness this exciting moment.”
“Okay, okay. I’ll go with you.”
The next day, Tang Yu changed into Tang Ye’s clothes. She wrapped herself up with a mask and hat before going out.
The twin sisters were too eye-catching. She wanted to keep a low profile and avoid alerting their mother about her return. She did not want to cause any unnecessary trouble either.
Tang Ye took a blood test, and got herself checked up at the hospital. The doctor eventually revealed that Tang Ye was actually not pregnant.
Tang Ye’s mood instantly hit rock bottom. She grabbed the doctor’s hand tightly out of desperation and said, “But I already took a test yesterday. It was two bars.”
The doctor smiled gently. “Don’t be nervous. It should have been a false pregnancy. This is a normal phenomenon. You’re still young. If you want to have children, you can still try.”
False pregnancy…
How could this be a false pregnancy?
Tang Ye sat on the chair at the door of the clinic, burying her head between her hands.
She had been thinking about her baby the entire night, looking forward to the checkup. Now, it was revealed that it had all been in vain.
Tang Yu patted her back gently.
“Why can’t I get pregnant with his child? Am I unable to have a child?”
She hugged her as she comforted her softly, “No, you will be able to. We’re twins, after all. You must have been too nervous at the symptoms of a false pregnancy. Have you always wanted to have a child?”
“Of course… Who doesn’t want to have a baby? You don’t know how much his family looks down on me every time I visit his place… They don’t want me to be with Michael because I don’t bring any benefits to their family. Michael is a responsible person. If I get pregnant, he’ll definitely propose marriage immediately and try to convince his family. His family would probably agree to let me be with him then…”
Tang Yu pointed out her injustice. “How can marriage be measured by benefits?! Sister, do you really want to marry him?”
Tang Ye nodded.
“Then your sister will help you.”
Tang Ye slowly raised her head, looking into Tang Yu’s eyes. The twins always seemed to have had a tacit understanding of each other. She quickly understood what her sister meant.
Switching ident.i.ties.
“I’ll help you settle your engagement.” Tang Yu was very confident. Even when they were young, they had often switched ident.i.ties to tease others. Although they had not seen each other for many years, it would be easy to understand each other again to pretend to be each other.
Tang Ye’s heart was filled with hope once again. She hugged her. “Thank… Thank you, Tang Yu!”
She could finally be together with Michael openly! She immediately called her boyfriend. “Michael, I’m pregnant.”
