Cheng Su lay in bed, pondering carefully about her unexpected pregnancy.
She wasn’t a stickler for rules and understood a saying, that in this world no absolutes exist. Putting all else aside and just talking about contraception, it’s not as if using birth control implies absolute safety from pregnancy.
In her past life, she had heard about someone who got pregnant despite having an IUD inserted or being sterilized; of course, technology advanced in later times and humanity’s compassion grew, so sterilization was not final and could be reversed if someone wanted to have children again.
But I digress, even with an IUD or sterilization, pregnancies could still unexpectedly happen, so using a condom wasn’t a guarantee of 100% safety either—there could be leaks.
But was that probability large?
Cheng Su closed her eyes and calculated the time of the child’s conception—it had only been a month or so, around February. They never finished outside, always used condoms; had they really leaked or broken?
Was the quality of these condoms truly that poor, or were they too loving?
No, something was off.
Cheng Su’s heart was in turmoil. She took a deep breath and pondered closely.
What came to her mind was her mother-in-law’s guilty, evasive eyes. Why was she feeling guilty, and what were Chunhua and she discussing at the time?
That’s right, they were talking about the safety of condoms.
Why would a woman who had reached the age of understanding the divine mandate be so sensitive and guilty about this topic?
Cheng Su chuckled to herself.
This time, when her mother-in-law just arrived after the miscarriage, although she did blame her for not knowing about the pregnancy, she wasn’t overly persistent in talking about it. Why was that? She had been longing for a grandson for so long; logically, this shouldn’t have been her reaction—she should’ve been very angry!
Something was wrong with her mother-in-law!
Cheng Su opened her eyes, her memories retreating as fast as a movie’s rewind until it came to a sudden stop.
