Qiao Muwan hated Miao Zifu from the bottom of her heart. She was clenching her teeth hard, but she still had to say in a nonchalant tone, “Miss Miao, the newspapers might just be reporting rumors. It might not be true.”

“I saw it and even called An Yexuan. He said it’s true. Hearing his tone, he sounded pretty happy.” Miao Zifu lied about this and exaggerated the truth of things.

The moment she heard this, Qiao Muwan coughed, and her heart rate started to increase. Not long after, all color drained from her face. Seeing her like this, Miao Zifu knew that she needed medical attention immediately.

She immediately called the doctor over, and Qiao Muwan was sent to the emergency ward.

Miao Zifu shrugged her shoulders. She rolled the newspapers and muttered to herself, “Ugh. Her resilience is so low. This is not fun.”

When the enemy was in the open while they were in the dark, everything became much simpler.

In Country A

When Yun Bixue learned of Qiao Muwan’s situation from Miao Zifu, she could not help but sigh. That evil, wicked-hearted woman. Who would have imagined that she would end up in this state?

However, to Yun Bixue, being able to control and keep watch on Qiao Muwan resolved a huge problem of hers.

She believed that Qiao Muwan would not live for long either.

However, during this period, she had to think of ways to force Qiao Muwan to speak. What she really wanted to know was why Qiao Muwan hated her so much and tried so many ways to harm her?

In Yun Bixue’s eyes, there must have been a reason, and that reason would not be simple.

Seeing Yun Bixue sitting there lost in her thoughts, Xie Limo walked over and stroked her head. “What’s troubling you? Mind telling me?”

Yun Bixue smiled at Xie Limo. “With you around, I have no troubles.”

“Yeah, just rest well at home. The Lantern Festival is coming soon, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. I will take you out to see the flower lanterns.”

Yun Bixue’s eyes lit up immediately. She nodded her head and said, “Okay.”

When she looked up and saw Xie Limo’s eyes, she noticed that he kept his eyes on her stomach, which made her laugh. “Why don’t you touch it?”

Xie Limo’s gorgeous face revealed a hint of redness as he nodded slightly.

Yun Bixue pulled his hand and placed it on her stomach. “Although it’s very small, I believe the child knows it’s you.”

“Do you think he can hear us?”

“I believe he can sense it. You can say a few words.”

Xie Limo was usually in control of everything and had always been calm and at ease. However, he was caught in a whirl now. He did not know what was the best thing to say.

Yun Bixue knew that Xie Limo was anxious, so she encouraged him. “You can just say a few words.”

“Child, I am your father. I love your mother, and I love you too. You must be good, okay? Don’t give your mother a hard time.” Xie Limo said this because he was worried that Yun Bixue would develop morning sickness.

When they were at the hospital the other day, Xie Limo heard many women talking about how they had bad morning sickness at the start of their pregnancy. They could not eat anything at all. They should have gained weight, but they actually lost much more.

When he heard that, he could not help but worry. However, this child seemed to be quite obedient and did not trouble Yun Bixue much. Or perhaps it was still early in the pregnancy, so the morning sickness had not kicked in.

Seeing how Xie Limo carefully put his hand on her belly and said those words softly, she could feel his gentleness and love for the child. It was such an eye-catching sight. She fell into a trance as she watched him.

“Limo, I think the child will look like you. Whether it is a boy or girl, the child will be very good-looking.” She felt that Xie Limo’s looks were the most perfect and exquisite. She could not find words to describe his looks every time she tried.
