Chapter 239 - 238: Only Two Months Left (4)
She had been back for nearly half a month now, and in the first week of her foot injury, she got her period, instantly shattering her hopes. All her recent efforts had still not resulted in pregnancy.
Without a child, it meant she could be discarded by Mrs. Shi at any time, and she wouldn’t be able to peacefully recuperate anymore.
In the second week after her foot injury, her period ended. Although her wound had not fully healed, it was slowly getting better. If it wasn’t for the occasional bumps, she barely felt any pain.
If, during the first week, Shi Che did not touch her due to her foot injury and her period, then in this second week, with the foot injury not a hindrance and her period gone, he still did not touch her.
The two of them lay side by side in the same bed every night, with only a small distance between them, but it was as if they were sleeping in separate beds. This feeling was like a return to the days when their relationship was at its worst.
After the injury, Shi Che had not brought up her running away from home and changing her medication, and naturally, she couldn’t bring it up either. She had thought that this matter would silently be forgotten, but now it seemed that it had never been forgotten.
Even though Shi Che’s attitude toward her had somewhat improved, it was only as if he treated her like an elder sister, and she was not his elder sister. So Shi Che was unwilling to touch her again or even consider her bearing his child.
The harsh words Shi Che had said to her still haunted her mind from time to time. Every recollection felt like thousands of tightly packed needles viciously pricking her heart.
However, despite his aversion, she still needed to have a child.
She had only two months left. If she couldn’t get pregnant in these two months, she would have to divorce Shi Che.
She did not know how long "soon" would be, as mentioned by her elder sister, but before her elder sister returned, she dared not relax even for a moment.
