When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase-Chapter 545: Return to the Sheng Family (Part 5)

"Tang, I noticed you didn’t go for lunch. What’s wrong? Not feeling well?"

A woman in her early thirties, sitting at the desk behind Tang Yanqi, asked with concern when she returned from lunch and saw Tang Yanqi looking unwell.

Tang Yanqi smiled slightly, "Maybe I’ve been too busy lately, feeling a bit tired."

"With the summer break rush, being busy is a given. You can’t skip meals though. How can you cope in the afternoon? Here, I have some egg tarts, have a bit to stave off the hunger."

It was out of kindness, and Tang Yanqi couldn’t refuse. Besides, there wasn’t enough time to go out for lunch now, and she’d surely struggle to get through the afternoon without eating something.

"Thank you, then I won’t be polite."

"Go ahead, eat. I just bought them this morning."

Tang Yanqi reached for one, from a well-known store famous for its egg tarts. But as soon as it got near her mouth, the rich aroma turned into a queasy sensation, her stomach churned, and with trembling hands, she dropped the tart to the floor. Ignoring it, she grabbed the trash can by her foot and began to retch.

Nothing much came out, just a bit of dry heaving and acid, yet her stomach was still upset, and her complexion turned pale in an instant.

"Tang? What’s happening to you?"

The woman who had given her the egg tart quickly came over, helping her sit back in the chair. "How come you’re feeling this bad? You should go to the hospital. Look at your face, it’s so pale."

"No... I’m fine, maybe I just caught a chill."

Though the weather outside was hot, the office had air conditioning on, making it a bit cool to wear short sleeves.

As Tang Yanqi spoke, she felt nauseous again, retching a couple of times.

The woman’s brows furrowed gradually. Having been through similar experiences, she knew that even a gastric cold wouldn’t come on this quickly. She turned to fetch Tang Yanqi a cup of water and said earnestly, "Tang, could you be pregnant?"

"Pfft..."

Tang Yanqi was sipping water, and upon hearing this, she sprayed it out and coughed sharply, "No... no way, right?"

"What do you mean no way? You young ones nowadays don’t take care of your own health. Think about it, when was the last time you had that?"

It was common knowledge in the office that Tang Yanqi had a boyfriend. She was attractive, and within just a week of joining, many had shown interest. To avoid unnecessary trouble and keep a certain overjealous person in check,

Tang Yanqi had made it clear from the start that she had a boyfriend.

Now, hearing the woman’s reminder, Tang Yanqi reflected and realized she hadn’t had it for a while. But since her cycle was never regular, she hadn’t given it much thought.

"I... I don’t remember."

"Tang, this is serious. Tomorrow is the weekend anyway, so taking a half-day off today won’t matter. Go talk to the supervisor. In your current state, you won’t be able to do much here anyway. Don’t take your youth for granted and neglect your health, listen to my advice."

Tang Yanqi hesitated for a couple of seconds, then nodded in agreement. Asking the supervisor for leave turned out to be smooth. Leaving the embassy, she got into her car and leaned on the steering wheel, feeling indescribable.

Is she pregnant?

Is it possible?

Ever since returning, she and Sheng Jianan hadn’t used protection often during intimacy, so pregnancy was possible.

But they had done this before, and she hadn’t gotten pregnant then.

Licking her lips, regardless of what, getting checked was necessary.

Tang Yanqi headed to a nearby hospital from the embassy, waiting over two hours in line before it was her turn.
