Chapter 55

Gu Pan and Zheng Wen were also worried about Li Yue in the private room. After fumbling for a long time, Zheng Wen finally got impatient, "Yueyue, you should speak up. How can we support you if you don't say anything?"

Li Yue blushed and, in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz, said, "It hasn't come yet."

"What hasn't come yet?" Zheng Wen was utterly confused.

"That thing," Li Yue was really getting anxious.

Gu Pan suddenly understood. A girl being so bashful, what else could it be? Her face changed, and she was quite shocked, "You... you..."

Zheng Wen had a similar expression.

"Um," Li Yue nodded, feeling very embarrassed.

"What can I say about you, Yueyue? How can you be so casual about such matters? It's too easy for Jiang Weixin," Zheng Wen immediately became indignant.

"I didn't mean to. I... I couldn't resist his pleading," Li Yue said, her face turning red again. It was a matter of mutual affection, and she was almost impatient and madly in love.

Gu Pan was the first to calm down, "The most pressing issue now isn't this. Yueyue, are you sure you're pregnant?"

Li Yue blushed and nodded, then shook her head, lowering her head, "I don't know. It should have come, but it hasn't. I've been feeling unwell these past few days, and I'm very anxious. When I told him, he was impatient. In a fit of anger, I acted as you saw. It's so embarrassing."

"It's okay, it's okay. Who hasn't fallen for a scumbag when they were young? It will all pass," Zheng Wen said nonchalantly.

"You shouldn't be so anxious. There's always a way out. Maybe it's just your imagination. You should go to the hospital to confirm. If it's true, you need to think about what to do," Gu Pan said rationally.

"I'm a girl, just starting university. How can I go to the hospital for this? I'd be too embarrassed. If I am pregnant, what will I do? My mother will kill me," Li Yue said, tears welling up in her eyes. She felt guilty and regretful, hating herself for losing control. If she were pregnant, her life would be ruined.

"Alright, worrying here won't help. Wenwen, call them in. The sky won't fall, and we still need to eat. We should also see what Jiang Weixin thinks. If he tries to shirk responsibility, we won't let it go," Gu Pan said, biting her lip.

Gu Pan was still very shocked, but she maintained a calm demeanor. If she panicked, Zheng Wen and Li Yue would be even more anxious.

"Come in!" Zheng Wen opened the door and went to find the waiter to order food.

The three boys entered the private room with their heads down. After listening to Jiang Weixin's fragmented account, the leader and Liu Meng finally understood the situation. Jiang Weixin couldn't avoid a beating from the leader and Liu Meng.

"Jiang Weixin, what are you going to do?" Gu Pan burst with queenly authority, her face cold and her voice firm.

Jiang Weixin lowered his head; he really didn't know what to do. Being new and inexperienced, he had acted rashly and hadn't expected such complications, which left him at a loss.

"If you are pregnant, will you marry Li Yue immediately?" Gu Pan asked, somewhat disappointed.

"Ah!?" Jiang Weixin jumped up, truly shocked. Marriage? He had never thought about it. He still had to study in the United States, a dream he had since childhood and his mother's expectation.

Shaking his head, Gu Pan sighed. Are men all so unreliable? She glanced at Liu Meng, thinking of his previous pursuit and flattery, and felt very disappointed.

Li Yue was also getting anxious. She couldn't hold back any longer and stood up, shouting, "Do you want to shirk responsibility? I'll kill you first, then myself. No one will have it easy."

Jiang Weixin was now truly afraid of Li Yue. When a woman goes crazy, she can do anything. His face was a mix of fear and shock.

Liu Meng couldn't stand it anymore. This incident had a profound impact on him. He said, "Being a man isn't easy. When you should stand up, you must stand up."

Thinking about this, he recalled his past with Zhao Linlin. As a poor student, they had faced similar worries and concerns. He glanced at Gu Pan, more determined than ever. Without a career, how can you talk about love?

The leader was also angry, slapping Jiang Weixin's back of the head and saying, "Damn, is this what men do?"

Jiang Weixin felt bitter, regretting his actions. One misstep and he would regret it for life.

"After we finish eating, we'll go to the hospital for a check-up. We'll decide based on the results," Gu Pan said, unwilling to say more and falling silent.

Li Yue whispered to Gu Pan, "I looked it up online. We don't have to go to the hospital. The pharmacy sells them, but I haven't dared to buy them."

The three girls then whispered among themselves. The leader, curious, tried to eavesdrop but couldn't hear anything.

This was a rather awkward meal. The leader and Liu Meng ate voraciously, and Zheng Wen wasn't far behind. Gu Pan occasionally whispered to Li Yue, while Jiang Weixin barely touched his food, thoroughly shaken by the mention of marriage.

After the meal, Jiang Weixin still looked dazed, causing the leader to slap his chest, "What are you waiting for? Pay the bill!"

The leader wasn't short of money and wouldn't be polite to Jiang Weixin, who also wasn't short of money.

Jiang Weixin mechanically paid the bill, and they all walked out. There was a pharmacy nearby. Li Yue nodded at Gu Pan and Zheng Wen, indicating that they had already discussed it.

The next question was, who would buy it?

"Liu Meng, you go and buy it for Li Yue. You know what it is," Zheng Wen, being straightforward, thought Liu Meng was the most familiar and decided to send him.

Liu Meng shrugged, "It wasn't me, so why should I?"

Everyone then looked at Jiang Weixin, whose face turned green with fear, "Ah? Buy what? I don't understand."

This was a dilemma. Liu Meng, who knew a bit, whispered a few words to Jiang Weixin, who mechanically nodded and walked to the pharmacy, his legs heavy and his heart racing. He hesitated at the entrance, embarrassed to go in. Looking back, he saw everyone watching, and the leader waved his fist, threatening to beat him if he didn't go in.

He had to force himself to enter. Jiang Weixin had never thought entering a pharmacy would be so difficult. Inside, he saw a few students buying medicine, which made him even more embarrassed. He searched for a while but couldn't find what Liu Meng had told him.

He moved to the counter, where the pharmacist, a shrewd woman, immediately understood. She chuckled and whispered, "Young man, are you looking for condoms? They're all here."

Jiang Weixin wished he could disappear. A few students came to the counter to pay, and he opened his mouth but couldn't say anything.

After the students paid, more came to the counter. Jiang Weixin stood there like a wooden stake, unable to speak.

Outside, the group was getting anxious. Zheng Wen tilted her head and asked Liu Meng mischievously, "What did you tell Jiang Weixin? Hmm, how do you know about these things?"

A curious child, Liu Meng clenched his teeth and said, "No comment."

Zheng Wen huffed and ignored Liu Meng.

Gu Pan also looked at Liu Meng strangely. Liu Meng waved his hands, "You should read more. Reading is good. Books have everything. Knowledge is power, and knowledge changes destiny."

"Denial," Gu Pan coldly said.

The leader sighed, "I'm also a theoretical expert. It seems I need to broaden my knowledge. Studying love action movies isn't enough. After-sales service is also important. We can't be like Jiang Weixin, who is so unreliable."

"Young man, what are you buying? Our pharmacy is about to close," the pharmacist said, getting impatient. The young man had been standing there for a long time without saying anything.

"Pr... pregnancy... test," Jiang Weixin said, feeling a lot lighter after saying it. He had broken out in a cold sweat without realizing it.

"You really made us wait. If you had said it earlier, it would have been done. They're all under the counter. Which one do you want? The strip or the stick?" the pharmacist asked, offering enthusiastic service.

This was a dilemma for Jiang Weixin. Liu Meng hadn't told him this much detail. He bit his lip, "Both."

"Do you want to buy two boxes of condoms? You won't need to buy this test next time," the pharmacist continued to push.

"No!" Jiang Weixin squeezed out, feeling very embarrassed.

When Jiang Weixin finally bought the items and came out, the leader said angrily, "Did you really need so long to buy medicine?"

Jiang Weixin smiled awkwardly, not daring to answer.

Without hesitation, the group returned to the main building. Gu Pan and Zheng Wen accompanied Li Yue to the bathroom, while the leader and Liu Meng stayed outside with Jiang Weixin, who was sweating profusely.

"Damn, you dare to do it but not to take responsibility. Look at you," Liu Meng suddenly got angry and cursed.

The leader was also very dissatisfied, "I despise you."

For Jiang Weixin, this was torture, a joke played by God.

After fifteen minutes, the three girls finally came out. Gu Pan and Zheng Wen looked very serious, and Li Yue followed behind, head down, not saying a word.

"Congratulations..." Gu Pan said in a very cold tone.

Jiang Weixin felt his whole body sweating. He couldn't support himself and fell to his knees with a thud.
