When Zhou Shuo returned to the living room with a bowl of sobering tea, he saw Xia Liang lying on the sofa, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

If he hadn't seen the starlight in Xia Liang's eyes in the dark night, he would have almost thought that Xia Liang had fallen asleep.

Xia Liang, who was so dazed and silent, made him feel a little strange.

He lightly walked to Xia Liang's side, put the soup bowl on the coffee table, then knelt down halfway, leaned in to Xia Liang's ear and asked in a low voice, "Brother Liang, do you want to drink water?"

After a long while, Xia Liang suddenly came back to his senses, rolled his eyes, looked at Zhou Shuo sideways, and looked at him inexplicably.

Zhou Shuo looked a little hairy, but considering that Xia Liang was not too drunk at the moment, he suppressed his doubts and asked in a low voice, "Brother Liang, do you want to drink water?"

Xia Liang still didn't answer him, propped up the sofa and slowly sat up, lowered his eyes and thought for a long time, and suddenly said, "Is there any way to remove the fetus without knowing it?"

"What?" Zhou Shuo didn't understand for a while.

"I mean," Xia Liang patiently organized the sentence, "If I do have a child, is there any way... I can remove the child without disturbing anyone?"

Zhou Shuo struggled to digest for a moment before he really realized what Xia Liang was talking about. Then he moved his gaze down, fixed on Xia Liang's lower abdomen, and said in surprise, "Brother Liang, you...you're pregnant?"

"What are you looking at?" Xia Liang suddenly became annoyed, and suddenly raised his hand to open Zhou Shuo's head, as if the other party glanced at his stomach, which was a great shame for him.

Immediately, he tried to speak clearly: "I mean, if, assuming, in case, do you understand?"

Zhou Shuo did not argue with him about this issue.

He knew that with Xia Liang's extremely pragmatic style of doing things, he would never waste his time on some illusory assumptions.

Thinking back to Xia Liang's sudden dwindling of alcohol, and his endless vomiting... Zhou Shuo became more and more certain that Xia Liang might be really pregnant.

At this moment, a trace of indescribable joy suddenly appeared in his heart, as if a soft little hand gently scratched the tip of his heart. She was too tense to let Xia Liang see it.

He never thought that one day he and Xia Liang would give birth to a child together - more than a month ago, this was completely a fantasy in his cognition.

However, today, this little life suddenly broke into his and Xia Liang's life without warning. It caught him off guard, but he wanted to cry happily in his heart.

He has no father or mother since he was a child, and since he has memories, there is no existence around him that can be called "relatives".

Even after he was adopted by the Xia family, and even though Xia Liang emphasized many times to treat him like a younger brother, Zhou Shuo still couldn't really appreciate the feeling of his relatives.

Until this moment, when he knew that Xia Liang might be pregnant with his child, he suddenly felt the feeling of kinship without a teacher, as if there was a tentacle that was tethered by blood, silently But it penetrated his body with incomparable tenacity, and tied his internal organs and meridians.

He couldn't bear it any longer, raised the back of his hand and wiped the corners of his hot eyes.

Xia Liang looked at him strangely: "I ask you something, why are you crying so well?"

"No, I didn't cry," Zhou Shuo lied a little embarrassedly, "It's just... my eyes suddenly feel a little uncomfortable."

Xia Liang didn't care, continued the topic just now, and muttered to herself: "Of course, Du Lanze's words can't be completely believed. You have to confirm whether she is really pregnant before thinking about the next countermeasures."

Zhou Shuo calmed down his excitement, looked up at Xia Liang's calm and almost cold profile, and the happiness in his heart gradually faded.

He clearly realized that the little life that was a surprise to him was a burden to Xia Liang that he wished he couldn't get rid of as soon as possible. In addition to myself, I am afraid that no one will welcome its arrival.

He pursed his lips and didn't say anything. He just lowered his eyes and looked at Xia Liang's lower abdomen sadly, and reluctantly looked at the little life who was about to be forcibly sent away not long after his arrival.

Xia Liang saw that Zhou Shuo, the boring gourd, had no intention of participating in the discussion at all, and did not expect him to be of any help at the critical moment, so he simply took out his mobile phone and went to Baidu on the Internet.

But the numbness after being drunk tortured his retinas. Xia Liang squinted uncomfortable and stared at the screen with his hands and searched for a few minutes, then almost gave up and threw the phone on the sofa.

"Tomorrow, go and buy me some pregnancy test paper." He ordered Zhou Shuo, and then muttered to himself, "But whether pregnancy test paper is useful for people with ABO constitution, I don't know.Or simply go to the hospital to get some abortion pills, and if the doctor doesn't give you, you can ask Song Yan for help, and he should have channels locally."

The reason why he asked Zhou Shuo to do these things was because the last time he went out alone to buy contraceptives was really not a pleasant memory, and he didn't want to experience a similar embarrassing experience again.

Zhou Shuo slowly retracted his gaze fixed on his lower abdomen, raised his eyes and looked at him, not knowing how much he heard what he just said.

Xia Liang thought he didn't understand, and warned: "Buy the pregnancy test paper with good quality, and buy a few more."

After thinking about it, he was still not at ease with Zhou Shuo's old wooden character, and added: "If someone is too gossipy and asks who you bought it for, you can say that it was for your girlfriend."
