Chapter 186 He Knows

Qi Wuhan read the military newspaper until late at night, then took a nap. When he opened his eyes again, he found that there was no one on the bed. He suddenly panicked and woke up abruptly. When he saw the person lying on the bed, he realized it was a dream.

He stood up and walked over, slowly squatted down, reached out and stroked her face, and said to himself, "You seem to have lost a little weight."

When Jiang Lan woke up, she did not see Qi Wuhan. When she pulled aside the curtain and came out, she looked up and saw the golden morning glow in the sky. It was so gorgeous that it seemed to dye the entire sky golden. It was so beautiful that people did not want to look away.

As she was immersed in the incomparable vitality of the morning glow, a discordant voice came.

"Why are you back again?" Lu Feng walked over with his arms folded.

Jiang Lan heard his tone as if he was trying to drive her away, so she asked back, "Can't I come back?"

Lu Feng suddenly stared at her straightly, his eyes seemed to be considering whether to solve a problem?

Jiang Lan felt a little uneasy when he looked at her. She asked, "Where did your highness go?"

Lu Feng withdrew his gaze, turned and left.

When Jiang Lan turned around and saw Qi Wuhan coming over, she understood why the other party left so abruptly.

"Are you hungry?" When he came over, he asked her if she was hungry. After he asked this, Jiang Lan really felt a little hungry.

When a sumptuous breakfast was placed in front of her, Jiang Lan smelled the aroma of roasted lamb and ran out, covering her mouth. When Qi Wuhan found her behind the tent, he saw her squatting on the ground retching and looking very uncomfortable. He squatted down, reached out and gently stroked her back. After she felt better, he asked her what was wrong. Jiang Lan shook her head and said it was okay.

"You," Qi Wuhan paused and glanced at her belly, "are you really okay?"

Jiang Lan subconsciously glanced down at her stomach and shook her head. "It's okay." She then explained, "I can't stand greasy food in the morning, so a bowl of porridge will be fine."

After returning, Qi Wuhan had the roasted lamb and lamb pancakes taken away and asked someone to prepare something light and send it over. After a while, the military doctor came over.

Qi Wuhan asked the military doctor to check on Jiang Lan. Jiang Lan hid her hands behind her back and refused to let the military doctor feel her pulse. She hadn't decided whether to let him know. Her current plan was to raise the child alone. As for whether to find a stepfather for the child, she hadn't thought about this issue yet.

But she was very clear about one thing: as long as he was the Crown Prince of Beimo, she could not be his legitimate wife, and it was impossible for her to share a husband with another woman.

If she didn't like him so much, maybe she could turn a blind eye, be more generous, and accept reality.

But just thinking about the scene of him lying in bed with another woman made her want to bang her head against the wall. If she really saw it with her own eyes, she would probably be so angry that she would die.

So, being deeply in love really makes people helpless~

Love is connected to the heart. If you want to cut it off completely, you probably have to cut open the heart as well, and pull out the roots entangled inside bit by bit, leaving bloody holes. How many people in the world can do that?

"Put your hand out." Qi Wuhan said in a slightly serious tone.

Jiang Lan shook her head.

The military doctor felt a little awkward standing there, so he asked, "Does this girl have any hidden illness that she doesn't want others to know about?"

Jiang Lan: “…”

Qi Wuhan raised the corner of his lips slightly, and said with a hint of joking, "She is just stubborn, even more stubborn than a donkey."

Jiang Lan: “…”

"You go down first." Qi Wuhan gestured, and the military doctor took his leave first.

After the military doctor left, Jiang Lan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, her brows slightly relaxed, and this subtle change was also captured by him. He suddenly came in front of her, staring at her frightened eyes, "Are you..."

He paused, his gaze like the clear and cold moonlight penetrating the deep sea surface and seeing deep into people's hearts. Those clear eyes became nervous under his gaze. She felt as if he knew something, and subconsciously put her hands on her stomach. He lowered his eyes and his gaze fell on her hands. When his gaze met her clear eyes again, he swallowed slightly, and his Adam's apple slid up and down, as if he was a little nervous too.

The answer is obvious.

A sense of tension quietly filled the entire tent.

He had felt something was wrong with her last night, as if she was very nervous about her stomach. He hadn't thought about that at the time, but today he saw her hiding behind the tent and retching, and she had just refused to let the military doctor take her pulse. His guess had been confirmed to about 80%.

He adjusted his breathing rhythm imperceptibly, and when he spoke again his voice was surprisingly calm, "Are you pregnant?"

Jiang Lan was stunned for a moment. After she recovered, a surge of excitement shot up her spine, and a thought lingered in her mind:

He knows? He knows! He knows~

But when she saw the surprisingly calm expression on his face, her excitement was instantly extinguished like a basin of cold water, and she fell into silence.

She thought he was indifferent, but she didn't notice that his hands were gripping his knees, his nails were scratching them until they were blue and white, and he was even holding his breath.

"Yes," Qi Wuhan paused and adjusted his breathing rhythm, "When did it happen?"

Hearing his surprisingly calm voice, Jiang Lan turned her back and impatiently replied with three words, "I don't know."

After a moment of silence, she calmed down a bit. She felt that it was not a good idea to remain so stiff. Since he asked, she would see what his attitude was. After making up her mind, she turned around and was about to speak when he interrupted her, "The child is..."

He paused, but Jiang Lan caught the hint of doubt in his tone in an instant, and her anger rose. However, she didn't know that this doubt was not about whether the child was his, but it was like a dream come true in an instant, making people unable to believe it was true. Qi Wuhan was about to speak when she yelled at him.

"Shut up!"

He didn't say anything and let her speak first.

"I can raise this child by myself, so you don't have to be responsible. The child will have my surname and will have nothing to do with you. You don't have to worry about being discovered by your legitimate Crown Princess."

Hearing this, Qi Wuhan laughed in anger. It seemed that this legitimate claim would not last.

Then she continued, "I will find a stepfather for the child in the future."

He couldn't bear it anymore when he heard the word "stepfather". He blocked her mouth as soon as he moved closer. She bit his lips hard. He hissed softly and raised his hand to wipe his lower lip. There was a little blood. He hooked the corner of his red lips in an ambiguous way and said, "Only puppies bite people~"

Jiang Lan glared at him, turned her back and ignored him.

"I didn't say I'm irresponsible. Let's count the days. The last time we slept together was two months ago," Qi Wuhan counted the days seriously. Jiang Lan turned around with a red face and covered his mouth with her hand to stop him from continuing. He raised his hand and gently held her hand, moving her hand away from his lips, and then gently kissed her forehead:

"Thank you, my little Lan'er."

Hearing the extremely familiar voice of "Xiao Lan'er", Jiang Lan's heart suddenly throbbed. When she looked up at him, her peach blossom eyes smiled brightly, as if thousands of peach blossoms were blooming in his eyes in an instant...
