Chaomu thought, Fourth Brother must have really liked it.
With a âclick,â the photo was taken.
Bai Man took the phone and smiled. âChaomu, you have a good skill in taking photos. Thank you.â
âYouâre welcome.â Xu Chaomu smiled.
The saleswoman glanced at Xu Chaomu and said with a smile, âIâve never met this Miss before.â
Xiaofeng said, âSheâs Shen Chiâs younger sister. Later, help her pick a bridesmaid dress, something prettier.â
âOh, itâs Shen Chiâs younger sister, no wonder sheâs so pretty and has such a gentle character. Iâll pick out a few dresses later, guaranteed to be beautiful,â said the saleswoman with a laugh.
Chaomu held her forehead, where was she gentleâ¦
This was the first time someone had called her gentle; it truly blinded her titanium-alloy eyes.
Bai Man didnât speak; she calmly sent the photo, probably chatting away happily with Shen Chi.
Xiaofeng asked, âMiss Bai, would you like to try other styles?â
It was only then that Bai Man looked up and smiled gently, âNo need, I quite like this one. Iâll see what Shen Chi thinks. If he doesnât think it looks good, Iâll try some others.â
âOkay.â
Shortly after, probably the text message arrived, Bai Man danced with joy, showing her phone.
âXiaofeng, he says it looks very good, letâs choose this one.â
âReally?â Xiaofeng leaned in closer.
Chaomu also saw the message, which was quite long. She glanced over it briefly.
The general idea was: The wedding dress is very beautiful, especially on you. You are the most beautiful bride, I love you.
Chaomu curled her lips, feeling upset inside. The last three words, especially, were glaring at her.
The one he liked the most, cared about the most, was indeed Bai Man.
Only to Bai Man would he say those words âI love you.â
Bai Man was the cherished love he held in the palm of his hands.
To other women, including her, it was just for fun.
The pain in her heart grew more intense as if it were being twisted by a knife. Despite warning herself time and again not to think about him, she just couldnât change.
Forgetting someone was not so easy.
But she was sure she would forget him, definitely.
Compared to Chaomuâs dejection, Bai Manâs smile appeared even brighter.
Xiaofeng teased, âMiss Bai, you and Shen Chi are really enviable. I wonder when I will find a man as good as Shen Chi.â
âYou will, just keep trying harder,â Bai Man said with a smile.
The salesgirl also laughed, âMiss Bai and Shen Chi are truly a match made in heaven, one stunningly gorgeous, the other handsome and dashing, truly enviable.â
âAlright, since he also likes this wedding dress, then letâs go with this one, no need for alterations, and no need to try others. Help find some dresses for Chaomu,â Bai Man said.
âAlright.â
After speaking, Bai Man went into the VIP changing room first to change out of the wedding dress.
The salesgirl was picking out dresses for Chaomu by the racks, showing each one to her.
âMiss, what color do you like? This pale lotus-colored lace dress is nice; would you like to try it on first? Itâs our latest model, exclusively customized.â
âPretty good, I can,â Chaomu nodded, expressionless.
Chaomu was somewhat distracted; the words âI love youâ echoed in her mindâ¦
Was she caring too much? Why should she careâ¦
But seeing the person she deeply loved say âI love youâ to another woman, she really cared a lot.
âThen okay, Miss, letâs try this one first. If youâre not satisfied, there are many more styles to try slowly,â the salesgirl was particularly enthusiastic and gentle.
Just as the salesgirl had put on white gloves and was about to take the dress off the rack, suddenly there came the sound of vomiting from the VIP changing room!
âUghâ¦â
Xiaofeng was the first to react, immediately knocking on the door of the changing room.
âMiss Bai, whatâs wrong with you? Do you feel unwell? Please open the door.â
âUghâ¦â Only the sound of distressing vomiting answered her.
Xiaofeng knocked desperately, âMiss Bai, Miss Baiâ¦â
The salesgirl also ran over anxiously, âMiss Bai, whatâs wrong?â
Chaomu stood there stunned, blinking her large eyes.
Wave after wave of vomiting sounds, striking fear into those who heard.
It took a long while before the noise inside stopped.
A feeble voice from Bai Man came from inside, âItâs nothing⦠just suddenly felt a bit nauseous.â
Xiaofeng knocked anxiously, âMiss Bai, please open the door, should we go to the hospital? Did you get food poisoning?â
At that moment, the door finally opened.
Bai Man leaned against the door frame; she had already changed her clothes, but her face was ashen, devoid of any color.
âI donât know, just suddenly felt very uncomfortable, a fierce churning in my stomach,â Bai Man said, frowning and holding her chest.
The salesgirl urged worriedly, âXiaofeng, we should still take Miss Bai to the hospital to check.â
Xiaofeng helped Bai Man up, âAlright, Iâll take Miss Bai right away. Package the wedding dress carefully.â
âSure, certainly.â
Chaomu also followed, âIâll accompany my sister-in-law to the hospital as well, we can come back another time to pick out dresses.â
Xiaofeng nodded, âThatâs good, Chaomu, come with us, you can also help me look after her.â
Bai Man shook her head, âChaomu, you should go back to school, donât delay your time for this. Iâm fine.â
âIâm not at ease, Iâd rather accompany you,â Chaomu insisted.
In the end, Chaomu was too kind; despite not liking the woman in front of her, she didnât want to see her suffering.
Just as Chaomu finished speaking, Bai Man broke free from Xiaofengâs hold and âughâ¦â once more, rushed to the trash can and vomited nonstop.
After a moment of thought, Chaomu softly asked, âXiaofeng⦠could Miss Bai be pregnant?â
âAh?â Xiaofeng looked surprised, then after a moment, her expression turned to delight, âIs it? Hey, now that you mention it, it could really be possible.â
Chaomu forced a smile at the corners of her lips.
Xiaofeng immediately went to Bai Manâs side and patted her on the back.
âMiss Bai, feeling any better? Have some water.â
She unscrewed the water bottle and handed it to Bai Man.
Bai Man took it, finally feeling a bit more comfortable.
âItâs okay, letâs go. Probably food poisoning, I felt uncomfortable and wanted to throw up ever since drinking milk this morning. Letâs get some medicine at the hospital.â
Xiaofeng supported Bai Man, her eyes bright with a smile, âMiss Bai, maybe⦠youâre pregnant?â
âPregnant?â Bai Man looked up, âYou mean, maybe Iâm pregnant?â
âYes, you should think positively. Like, you can calculate, how long has it been since your last period? When was the last time you and Shen Chi, you knowâ¦â
Xiaofeng deliberately lowered her voice, yet Chaomu still overheard.
Pain surged tumultuously in her chest; she clenched her teeth, yet her face remained calm. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Bai Man blushed and slapped Xiaofengâs hand lightly, âAlways saying such indecent things. Letâs just go to the hospital to check. But to tell you the truth, I indeed didnât have my period last monthâ¦â
