She'd originally wanted to go buy a pregnancy test, but then felt it had only been a few days, there was no way it would show anything yet.
She wanted to tell Nangong Yue about it, but she was afraid she was getting ahead of herself, and if she wasn't actually pregnant, she'd have made him happy for nothing.
So she hesitated, conflicted and tangled up, to the point her mood was all kinds of heartache-y.
By the time Nangong Yue came to the Golden Palace to pick her up after work, she was still stuck in that tangle: should she tell him or not?
After thinking it over, she decided to wait a few more days. If her period still hadn't come after another week, she'd go to the hospital, and then only tell Nangong Yue once it was confirmed she was pregnant.
So they wouldn't be happy for nothing.
Once she'd decided, Gu Mian temporarily pressed the matter down to the bottom of her heart, and went home with Nangong Yue acting like nothing was going on.
