Chapter 272: Growing Brains

Translator: 549690339

Qiao Yin wiped her tears, smearing them all over his school uniform: “Am I shallow for thinking he’s good-looking and cool? Wasn’t it you who said you’d stop picking on me? Why are you starting again?”

“Hey, Qiao Yin, stop smearing your snot on me!”

“These are tears, not snot.”

“The same goes for tears! Wipe them on yourself!”

“What’s your problem? I’m your big sister, will you die if you call me sister? Don’t just call me by my name, such a lack of respect.”

Qiao Jiasen refused to call her that, arguing with her while carrying her down the stairs.

Upon exiting the hospital lobby, carrying Qiao Yin, he turned the parking lot high and low but didn’t find Qiao Haidong’s car, nor did he see him anywhere. Inwardly, he cursed Qiao Haidong numerous times.

Then, he hailed a taxi to take Qiao Yin home.

In the car, he suddenly remembered what Qiao Yin had said in the ward and couldn’t help but ask her: “Isn’t the child that woman is carrying a Lu?”

Qiao Yin was taken aback, then shook her head: “I’m not sure, I’m just a little suspicious.”

“Why didn’t you tell Lu?”

“It’s just a suspicion, I have no evidence, how can I tell him? But even if I did have evidence, I probably wouldn’t tell him.”

“Why?”

“Because he deserves it.”

Qiao Jiasen laughed: “Not bad, you’re growing up, even thinking about getting back at him.”

Seeing him laughing, Qiao Yin reached out and patted his head: “The little kid should smile more, you look so handsome and sunny when you smile. What’s with the straight face all the time, trying to act like an adult?”

Jiasen’s smile disappeared instantly from his face. He removed her hand: “I’m not a kid anymore! I’m almost an adult. From now on, don’t touch my head!”

Pity that while he was stubborn, so was Qiao Yin.

She placed her hand back on his head, touching his short hair.

Jiasen was about to push away her hand, when Qiao Yin suddenly clutched her stomach and groaned.

With a stern face, Jiasen stopped and let her mess up his hair.

By the time they reached Qiao Yin’s residential area, with his hair all messed up, he carried her up the stairs.

“My stomach isn’t hurting anymore, I can go upstairs myself.”

“Just keep quiet.”

“Are you going to school tomorrow?”

“No.”

“Then come over at nine o’clock tomorrow morning and accompany me to the hospital.”

“Okay.”

“Do you want to come in and say hi to my grandma?”

“No need.”

He didn’t enjoy chatting or being close to elders since he was a kid, and Qiao Yin didn’t press him.

She punched in the code, opened the door, waved at him, and only closed the door once he’d left.

As expected, her grandmother had been waiting for her for a while, and immediately called out to her as soon as she heard the door opening and closing: “Yinyin, are you back?”

“Grandma, I’m back!”

Qiao Yin responded while taking a look in the mirror. Although her complexion wasn’t great, it could have been worse after the long journey. She slapped her cheeks to bring some color back, before heading to the bedroom to chat with her grandmother.

Luckily, her grandmother was frail and didn’t notice anything unusual about Qiao Yin, who was forcing back a severe headache and dizziness.

“Yinyin, where have you been? How come you’re so late? Did you encounter any troubles outside?”

Ever since she was beaten, her grandmother had been extremely nervous, always fearing that Qiao Yin might be in danger outside.

Qiao Yin felt a pang of heartache and sadness, knowing that her grandmother was actually terrified, carrying her own psychological shadow, but was unwilling to admit it because she didn’t want her to worry.

She wanted to hold her grandmother’s hands to comfort her, but when she thought of her own pregnancy, she dared not to.

“No troubles, I just ran into an old colleague and chatted for a little while.”

After making up an excuse to comfort her grandmother, Qiao Yin felt a nagging unease in her heart.

She could handle today, but what about tomorrow?

If she had an abortion tomorrow, her complexion would definitely change, her energy level would adjust too, so it was very likely that her grandmother would notice.

How could she not let her find out?
