Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies novel Chapter 830

Chapter 830: A Choice (II)

Shen Zhen shook her head. "They can scheme all they want, but I will never leave. This child is weak and won’t be able to survive. At most, I will hold on for a month and then let this child be aborted."

"Why are you waiting for a month?" Bai Meiyue asked. If the child was weak and could not be kept, why raise it for a month and then abort it?

"Because abortion is a big deal. You are about to give birth, and I cannot lie down at the moment. If I abort this child now, then I will have to arrange a lot of things, plus the postpartum nourishment. I do not have the time to do that. What if you go into labour when I am out and about? Who will take care of you?" Shen Zhen explained the matter clearly to Bai Meiyue.

"That’s not what I meant to ask." Bai Meiyue shook her head. "What I want to know is why you are refusing to keep the child if you have already been taking the medicine for a month?" As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Zhen exchanged a look with Li Rong, who pursed her lips.

Bai Meiyue suddenly had a bad feeling, and she could not help but ask, "What is going on?"

Of course, neither of the two women was willing to speak, and it was only when she insisted that Li Rong finally sighed and opened her mouth to speak. "Meiyue, the matter is not as simple as taking medicine and keeping the child. As you already heard, we do not have enough of these injections. At most, we can drag this matter for a month...as for the rest, it is impossible."

"And the child is weak from the start, which means that even if we somehow managed to procure enough injections for more than three months... we will need them for the entire pregnancy."

Li Rong sucked in a breath and continued, "Then there is also the matter of Doctor Shen bleeding twice or thrice after she got pregnant. If it was before, then we can simply arrange for her to take bed rest and operate on her when the pregnancy comes to full term. After that, the child can be placed in the incubator and left alone until he grows up."

"But the situation right now is not the same. Doctor Shen has been skipping these injections to save them for those who would need them. The child’s base is not safe from the beginning."
