Chapter 553: Chapter 562: Danger (7)

Not daring to take the main road, they could only walk along the small mountain paths into the depths of the dense forest. They still had to act out the scene where two people lost their footing and tumbled down the cliff.

The scene of falling due to lost footing wasn’t successfully shot yesterday because the stunt double had something come up. Therefore, today’s task was to reshoot this part of the scene.

The Yu Zexiao on camera was still irresistibly handsome. Perhaps his wish was fulfilled, as he was particularly earnest while filming. Jian Anning, on the side, watched him act with great effort, reminding her of the saying: "A man who is serious is the most charismatic."

Seeing Yu Zexiao by her side again, despite him being someone so familiar, her mentality seemed to be quietly changing after just one night.

It was as if his being had been branded with her mark, screaming "This is her man!"

All the slight suspicions, nervousness, and anxiety in her heart slowly dissipated. It was like chocolate liqueur. Initially bitter when first tasted, but leaving behind intoxicating sweetness in the end.

She glanced at Yu Zexiao a few times, everything was normal, so she turned around to go buy the morning-after pill.

--------------------------

Generally, hotels have these items prepared for guests.

But who was Yu Zexiao? How could she dare to call room service? What if it got out that the Little Heavenly King had someone bring him the morning-after pill during a hotel location shoot?

Wouldn’t that be brazenly telling everyone what they had done the night before?

When shooting indoor scenes, Jian Anning followed closely throughout. However, when it was time to shoot outdoor scenes, she went to buy the pill. Because within the confines of the indoors, her absence would be very conspicuous. But with outdoor shoots, who would notice where she ran off to?

She also didn’t dare to buy the pill inside the hotel. Since the crew had booked the whole hotel, with just a few people around, if she went to buy something like the morning-after pill, it would be blatantly obvious what had happened.

She had asked beforehand and learned there was a small town at the foot of the mountain where there would usually be a pharmacy.

She had no choice but to walk slowly down, and after more than half an hour, she arrived at the small town below. She looked around and found that the only pharmacy in town was, unbelievably, closed!

What was she to do? Jian Anning was instantly stunned. Last night was not her safe period, which meant—the chances of being pregnant were incredibly high. She and Yu Zexiao had not planned on becoming parents at all, nor did she want to be left with a record of an abortion at such a young age.

As for the 72-hour emergency contraceptive pill, she had already taken it once before with Yu Zexiao. Such a pill’s effects are long-lasting, meaning it also remains in the body for a longer period, causing considerable harm. Since she took that pill last time, her monthly cycles had been quite irregular for several months, and they were particularly painful.

For the sake of her health, it would be best not to take the 72-hour pill either.

After hesitating for a moment, she saw a few women sitting and chatting idly. She hesitated then walked up to them, "Excuse me, is there another pharmacy nearby?"

One of the women holding a child answered, "A pharmacy? There’s none around here, you’d have to go over to that street to buy."

"Then, how long would it take to walk there?" She wasn’t afforded much time; it was already four in the afternoon. Any further delays would make it troublesome to return in the evening.

"Walking? Oh my, I’m afraid it would take more than half an hour!"
