With My Profound Love, I Offer to the Years

Chapter 96

"......" It was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him, and Lu Lingchuan instantly sobered up.

He looked at Shen Nian, who had closed her eyes and remained silent, his heart turning ice-cold.

Silence was an unspoken rejection.

And it was the coldest form of rejection.

He suddenly increased his grip, biting down hard on her taut lips until they both tasted the metallic tang of blood.

He tightly clutched her arms, forcing her to intertwine her fingers with his, his eyes burning with intense madness.

"I hate you, Shen Nian."

"......"

Until the very end, Lu Lingchuan never heard Shen Nian utter the word "okay."

Quickly regaining his composure, the room was dark, without any lights on. Shen Nian lay there silently with her eyes closed, as if asleep.

Lu Lingchuan rose and entered the bathroom.

"Click." It was the sound of the bathroom door being locked.

Shortly after, the sound of running water could be heard.

Shen Nian slowly opened her eyes, turning her gaze towards the bathroom.

She quietly sat up, put on her clothes, and left silently.

The bedroom door closed, followed by a sound from the bathroom door.

The bathroom door opened again, and Lu Lingchuan stood at the entrance, wearing a bathrobe.

The shower in the back was running, and due to the high temperature, the bathroom was filled with steamy mist.

He stood there expressionless, staring intently at the bedroom door, his silence tinged with melancholy.

...............................................

Shen Nian returned to her room downstairs, fortunately, there were few people living on these two floors, so no one encountered the disheveled Shen Nian.

Until she closed the door, she leaned against it, her breathing becoming heavier, her chest rising and falling dramatically.

It was as if she was having an asthma attack, her pale face looking terrifying.

Her peripheral vision caught sight of a bag on the shoe cabinet nearby, it was hers.

It must have been left there by Lu Lingchuan.

Their rooms were all booked by the company, so Lu Lingchuan only needed to go to the front desk, provide his name and ID number to verify his identity, and then tell the front desk to help deliver something to a friend, and they would use a master key to open the door for him.

Shen Nian stumbled over in a frantic state and began rummaging through the bag until she found a pill box and a few small medicine bottles.

She didn't turn on the lights and blindly grabbed a few pills, directly popping them into her mouth and swallowing them dry.

Then, she slid down, leaning against the shoe cabinet.

After a long time, her emotions finally calmed down, but her mind was filled with Lu Lingchuan's words, "to have a child."

Suddenly, Shen Nian seemed to recall something and began searching the floor again.

Earlier, when she was looking for the pill box, she had dropped everything else on the floor.

She was poked a few times by hairpins, lipstick, and cards before finally finding her phone. Unlocking it, she clicked on the search bar and rapidly tapped on the screen.

[Can taking antidepressants affect pregnancy?]

Then, search.

In those few short seconds, Shen Nian could hear her own heartbeat, pounding so quickly and loudly.

Until, the search results popped up, with the nine bold, enlarged words at the top.

[Can taking antidepressants affect pregnancy]

Antidepressants have certain side effects and can cause serious harm to the body because they contain sedatives. If a person becomes pregnant while taking them, it can greatly affect the fetus in the womb. It is recommended not to have children during the illness period and to wait three months after recovery before considering pregnancy.

"......"

Shen Nian's hand went limp, and her phone dropped to the floor.

Even though she had already known the answer, seeing these cold words still made her heart sink to the depths.

...............................................

The next day, Shen Nian woke up very early, or rather, she hadn't slept at all.

All night, she would doze off for less than half an hour before waking up again in a frenzy. Even after taking two sleeping pills, there was no effect.

It wasn't until she took a third pill that she felt a bit drowsy.

But even when she fell asleep, it was restless, tossing and turning, her eyes closed but her mind awake.

It felt like being on a rollercoaster, going up and down, the feeling of being suspended in midair was extremely torturous.

After sleeping for a little over an hour, she woke up again, this time unable to fall back asleep.

Finally enduring until 7 a.m., seeing that it was almost time, she got up.

There was something very important she had to do today.

After freshening up in the bathroom, she returned to find her phone blank.

Shen Nian sat on the edge of the bed, thinking for a moment, then called Lu Lingchen.

After a short while, he answered, "Sis Nian?"

Shen Nian said, "I'm all packed up, when are we leaving?"

He sighed on the other end, and Shen Nian asked, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Lu Lingchen said, "I'm having breakfast in the lobby, come down."

"Okay."

Hanging up, Shen Nian went downstairs.

After arriving on the first floor, she looked around before spotting Lu Lingchen eating breakfast alone in a corner, with no sign of Lu Lingchuan.

Shen Nian walked over and pulled out the chair across from him, sitting down.

Hearing the sound of the chair being pulled, Lu Lingchen looked up.

Shen Nian had not put on any makeup today, and combined with her lack of sleep, she looked a bit haggard, but even so, her good looks were undeniable.

Her features were all very soft, the image of the "fair lady" in everyone's mind was more or less like her.

Lu Lingchen's gaze lowered, noticing the wound on her lower lip, which had already scabbed over after a night.

"......" Lu Lingchen sighed helplessly, "You two always come to me whenever you argue, whenever you argue you both find me, I feel like I'm just your messenger."

Whenever they argued, Lu Lingchuan would call him, and Shen Nian would call him too, a typical case of them feeding him dog food when things were good, and each kicking him when things were bad.

The sadness of being a single dog.

"......" Hearing Lu Lingchen's words, Shen Nian felt embarrassed, silently pursing her lips, stubbornly retorting.

"Who told you we argued?"

"You didn't?" Lu Lingchen shrugged. "You can call him right now and prove to me that you two didn't argue."

"......" Shen Nian fell silent.

Seeing that she was rendered speechless by his words, Lu Lingchen sighed helplessly, snapped his fingers to summon a server, and gestured towards Shen Nian, "Please bring her the A set meal, thank you."

This hotel was very classy, even the restaurant had dedicated servers to assist guests with any issues at any time.

"Of course." The server nodded and left.

Five minutes later, the server brought the A set meal and placed it in front of Shen Nian, "Miss, this is our hotel's A set meal, featuring a Chinese style. It includes steamed buns, porridge, eggs, and we also have noodle soup, dumplings, soy milk, and more. If you need anything else, please let us know."

Lu Lingchen had almost finished eating, so he gestured towards her with his mouth, "Eat your breakfast first."

Shen Nian was indeed hungry, so she didn't say anything and started eating.

Her appetite has always been small, and she felt full after eating just half of the meal. Seeing that she had almost finished, Lu Lingchen glanced at his watch, then stood up.

"Let's go."

Seeing him stand, Shen Nian was taken aback.

Lu Lingchen noticed Shen Nian still sitting there and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's just... the two of us?"

"What else?"
