Ouyang Shaoqing ordered someone to cook the medicine. He stayed with me for a long time and did not leave until after dinner.
I was about to go back to the room to rest, and Yuniang followed me. I thought she was going to talk to me about the unicorn jade, but I didn't expect that she would actually ask me: "Are you pregnant?"
Suddenly, I was speechless and felt that what Yuniang said was nonsense.
Pregnant? How is it possible?
But when I thought about it, I suddenly lost my confidence.
Am I pregnant? Thinking of that time with Dongfang Luo, I feel even less confident.
When I think back to Dongfang Luo's furrowed brows when he checked my pulse, my heart is even more suspended, with no place to settle.
"Yu Niang, I'm not pregnant."
Regardless of whether I'm pregnant or not, I don't want Lady Yu to know, so I responded with a guilty conscience and pretended to be unhappy.
Yuniang looked at me with inquiring eyes, but without speaking, I said, "Besides asking me about this matter, do you have anything else to do here? If not, I'm going to rest."
Yuniang didn't say anything, so I took her as her acquiescence and turned around and walked towards the room.
She was looking at her, and of course I knew it, but I just ignored her on purpose.
When I went back to the room, it was dark. I closed the door and leaned against the door gently, feeling very tired.
Am I really pregnant?
He gently touched his lower abdomen with his hand, and he couldn't quite tell what it felt like.
In the past, I wished so much to give Dongfang Luo a child, but I couldn't.
Now this situation does not allow it. After just one time, am I pregnant with his child?
"who?"
I was so distracted that I didn't notice anything unusual in the room, but now that I felt it, I couldn't help but feel frightened.
When that familiar breath penetrated my breath, that tall figure appeared in front of my eyes, and that warm chest embraced me, I had already made up my mind.
"Fang Luo——"
Calling softly, full of longing.
"Um."
He responded without any extra words, he just hugged me silently. I didn't say anything, and we cuddled together quietly, as if we were the only ones in the world.
After a long time, I opened my mouth and asked him, "Am I pregnant?"
I can't determine the doubts in my heart, and only he can give me the answer.
He obviously didn't expect me to ask such a question, and he was silent for a moment, with a confused look on his face.
I don’t know what he is struggling with. Shouldn’t he be happy that I am pregnant with his child?
"Don't you want her?"
I asked, but I couldn't hide the trembling in my voice, as if I couldn't accept the fact that he didn't want children.
"Xi'er——"
He seemed very entangled and helpless, as if he was not unwilling but unable.
"Do you want her?"
I asked gently, as if I was betting on something.
Even though I knew this child came at the wrong time, I still wanted to have her.
"Um."
He nodded and answered me. The disappointment and fear in my heart suddenly disappeared and I was filled with joy.
But the next moment, the confusion on his face still worried me.
"You said you wanted her, did you really mean it? You -"
For a moment, I felt that Dongfang Luo was lying to me, as if he said he wanted this child, but he was just lying to me, and he didn't really want her.
Does he still think I'm not worthy? Because I gave birth to Lian Yu to Dongfang Ao?
But no matter Lian Yu or this child, they are my children.
"Xi'er, don't cry, I really want her, I really want-"
