Chapter 20 part 1
Early the next morning, Yu Li woke up again in the midst of pregnancy symptoms.
He didn't want to disturb his still sleeping roommates, covering his mouth and running to the public bathroom on the floor to vomit for a while.
When he finally managed to calm down a bit, Yu Li returned to the dorm, seeing the vitamin B6 tablets and the few leftover oranges on the table.
He hesitated for a moment, ultimately choosing to cut and eat an orange, the sourness slightly suppressing the urge to feel nauseous.
As he wiped the water stains off the tabletop, his roommates also gradually got up.
Seeing Yan Sui climb down from the bed with a yawn, Yu Li was a bit surprised, "Yan Sui, aren't you going to the library to study today?"
Since the start of the semester when he said he wanted to take the postgraduate exam, Yan Sui had been very diligent, often occupying a seat in the library before dawn.
Yan Sui scratched his messy hair, his expression downcast, "I don't really feel like going today."
After studying so many days, he didn't feel like he understood things better, only feeling more confused.
Yan Sui clicked his tongue, sweeping his gaze, noticing that Yu Li's complexion was still pale and his spirit a bit wilted.
"Yu Li, are you still not feeling well?" Yan Sui asked.
Yu Li shook his head, "It's fine, not as bad as yesterday."
"If you're still uncomfortable, why don't you go get an IV drip today?" Yan Sui frowned in concern, "Don't you have the CreOne written test tomorrow? If your condition is always this bad, what if it affects the test?"
Yu Li was slightly stunned, blankly staring at the dormitory curtains.
Yesterday, he had been so shocked by the news of the pregnancy that he almost forgot about the written test.
He wasn't worried about the test results being good or bad, it's just that after the test, when he goes for the internship, what if his pregnancy symptoms are still severe, what should he do?
And in the future, as the baby's gestational age increases, if someone accidentally finds out that he, a man, can get pregnant, it will be very troublesome.
Yu Li pressed his lips, retracting his gaze and frowning, "Let me think about it."
Yan Sui observed Yu Li's state for a while, noticing that he seemed a bit absent-minded.
He wiped his face, deciding to go wash up and have breakfast first, if Yu Li was still uncomfortable later, he and Liu Jiafan, Xu Bin would just forcibly take Yu Li to the infirmary for an IV.
Yan Sui made up his mind, quickly finishing his washing up.
Just as he was about to leave, Yan Sui poked his head out and asked, "I'm going to buy breakfast, what do you guys want, I'll bring it back."
Liu Jiafan, while brushing his teeth, replied, "Wonton! Thank you Godfather!"
Xu Bin also replied with wonton.
Yu Li came back to his senses, turning his head to meet Yan Sui's gaze.
He actually didn't have any particular cravings right now, just about to speak up, when his phone suddenly rang, the caller ID showing an food delivery call.
Yu Li hesitated, intuitively feeling that it was another takeout order from Yan Shiting.
He uncomfortably touched his earlobe, standing up and saying, "My takeout has arrived."
Yan Sui nodded, "Okay, let's go get it together."
After the two of them left, Liu Jiafan put away his toiletry cup, suddenly puzzled, "Takeout this early?"
It's not even 7:30 yet, most stores are probably still closed, right?
Xu Bin casually said, "The breakfast shops are usually open early, aren't they?"
"Oh right, I was still half-asleep." Liu Jiafan said, quickly lowering his head to wash his face and wake up.
Soon, Yu Li and Yan Sui returned.
Yu Li opened the takeout bag, inside was a bowl of light lean pork congee.
As he took out the congee, he also saw a box of dried strawberries underneath.
Yu Li's movements paused.
Seeing the other three roommates were enthusiastically discussing how much filling the wonton from this shop today had, Yu Li quietly opened WeChat, scrolling down to find the chat with Yan Shiting.
After adding each other as friends last time, he and Yan Shiting hadn't chatted at all. Their message history only had the few firefly photos Yan Shiting sent that day they added each other.
Yu Li tapped on the input box.
But his fingers hovered over the keyboard, still not pressing down.
Mainly because... he didn't really know what to say.
Vaguely, Yu Li felt like he could sense Yan Shiting's intention.
- As the other father of the child, and the one who got him pregnant, he was taking on the responsibility of caring for him.
So at this time, saying thank you wouldn't be appropriate, and asking why would be redundant.
However, Yu Li didn't know if his guess was right or not.
He came back to his senses, looking at the chat page, his fingers hesitating a few times, but still ending up exiting.
-
After breakfast, Yu Li called the HR of CreOne Company, apologetically telling them that he couldn't attend the written test tomorrow.
The HR still remembered Yu Li and was quite satisfied with his professional level, so they asked him further why.
Yu Li lowered his eyes, thinking for a moment, "I want to find what I truly enjoy doing."
Choosing to give up the written test tomorrow was not entirely because he was pregnant.
The question the HR asked him after the interview had also been troubling Yu Li.
Even though he had been applying for internships and finding a clear goal after the start of the semester, but in reality, how was he any different from those confused classmates?
If possible, he still wanted to clearly know what he liked and what he wanted.
The HR laughed, "I understand, wishing you all the best."
Yu Li's lips curved up, "Thank you, wishing you all the best as well."
After hanging up, Yu Li sighed in relief.
The call was overheard by Yan Sui in the dormitory.
"Yu Li, have you really decided?"
