Venerated Venomous Consort
chapter-2699

She closed her eyes, and her lips twitched slightly. Her greatest strength was her endurance, and she was not about to let someone manipulate her.

The two of them did not speak, so there was silence in the cabin. The only noteworthy activity in the cabin was the small copper incense burner on the corner table that exuded a milky scent.

Although Wu Wuyan had been very quiet and had her eyes closed, she was feeling rather agitated. Her hand lightly touched her belly, which was growing day by day.

When she returned to the Starry Crescent Land, she was already placed in this body. Her master told her that she had a small life in her belly because the owner of this body was married. What she needed to do was to seduce her husband to have sex with her. Only then would her task be completed.

Wu Wuyan still possessed Lan Waihu’s memories, and they felt like they were her own. She could feel the love that Lan Waihu and Yan Chen had shared over the years. She truly could not believe that there was such a love in this world, which convinced her that the task would be an easy one. She did not expect Yan Chen to reject her constantly.

The moment when Yan Chen ran away with Lan Waihu, she knew she was exposed! Although she did not know where she fell short, it did not matter now since she had failed. She found her master quickly reported everything to him.

She thought that Fan Qianshi would give her a very harsh punishment, but instead, he only asked her to follow him to the main ship. He had told her that he would find an opportunity for her to make up for it.

Naturally, she wanted to make up for her failure. She was very grateful to be given a second chance. Nonetheless, this time, Fan Qianshi did not assign any complicated tasks to her. He asked her to come out and stay with Gu Xijiu to prevent her from causing any trouble.

Fortunately, Gu Xijiu had been very calm and did not seem to be plotting anything, which made Wu Wuyan heave a sigh of relief.

Now that her master had left, if Gu Xijiu really wanted to attack her in this body, she would not be able to fight against her. The other party would probably destroy her. Although she did not cherish this body, she did have a feeling of affection for the ‘baby’ in her stomach.

She had occupied so many bodies in the past, but none of them carried another life in them. She experienced how the baby grew in her belly each day over the past two months; she even sensed the fetal movements that a pregnant mother would. This brought a little warmth to her cold heart.

If she personally gave birth to the child, would the child be hers? Would he be close to her? When she got on the ship with her master, she was worried that he would order her to kill the baby. Instead, he asked her to treat the baby with care, which was a relief to her.

With all these thoughts in mind, she caressed her stomach and raised the corner of her lips. In the past, she only had her master, and she lived like a relentless machine. But now, she had a child with her, one which she was considering to call her own. After all, they had already left the Starry Crescent Land. Yan Chen and Lan Waihu would not be able to chase after them.

Although Gu Xijiu had not spoken or even looked at her, her mind continued to focus on Wu Wuyan’s actions.
