Brief Answer:
Wait and watch for your menses.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
Thanks for trusting hcm about your health care.
I can understand your concerns.
The chances of pregnancy are not there in your case as you had I- pill within time, that was your less fertile day and your pregnancy test are negative.
So do not take any stress because it will further delay your menses.
Wait and watch for your period for one week.
Hope it is useful, feel free to discuss more.
Good luck.

Hello dear,
Yes, you can rely on test results if you done it as advice ( it is almost 96% correct).
