Meanwhile, Yan Yixuan woke up and learned that she had miscarried. She cried hysterically and was heartbroken.

But when Madam Yan learned of this outcome, she felt only relief.

When her daughter had cried herself to sleep, Madam Yan sat by the bedside and earnestly advised her, "Xuanxuan, listen to your mother. Ji Xianli has broken the law and will be imprisoned. With the powerful Gu family, they will definitely keep Ji Xianli locked up for seven or eight years. Do you want to wait for him for seven or eight years?"

Yes, you're waiting for him, and your feelings are deep and sincere, but can you guarantee that he still loves you?

Seven or eight years from now, you'll be old! If a man in his thirties or forties can find young, beautiful girls in their teens or twenties, do you think he'll want you or the younger girl?

Yan Yixuan stubbornly replied, "I can guarantee it! Brother Xianli will definitely want me!"

Madam Yan could see that she was putting on a brave face, and continued to persuade her: "Xuanxuan, a woman's youth and beauty only last for a few years. If you don't find a good man now, you will suffer in the future."

However, Yan Yixuan wouldn't listen to a word.

She thought her mother had gone crazy.

She had just miscarried, and her mother actually advised her to give up the child's father?

Yan Yixuan pointed at the door, her expression agitated, and shouted, "Stop talking! I don't want to see you, get out!"

Madam Yan frowned and decided to give her daughter a strong dose of medicine.

"Fine, you wait until Ji Xianli gets out of prison. When it's New Year, you and Rou Rou can bring your husbands home. Her man is the third young master of the Gu family, an excellent military officer. What is your man? A man who has been to prison, can he still become the head of the Ji family? Xuanxuan, stop dreaming!"

In an instant, Yan Yixuan's face turned pale with anger.

The last thing she wanted in her life was to be outshone by Yan Yirou!

Madam Yan said again, "Back then, Ji Xianli was Rou Rou's blind date, but you snatched him away. Who knew Rou Rou would be so lucky and find the third young master of the Gu family as her boyfriend, who is even better than Ji Xianli."

Mom didn't agree to you two being together, but you're already pregnant with his child, so what could Mom do but let you get married? Who knew that Ji Xianli was such a hopeless case, wanting to do illegal things and dragging you down with him.

If you hadn't...

Madam Yan sighed before she could finish speaking.

But Yan Yixuan understood.

Her mother blamed her for taking Ji Xianli away.

If she doesn't snatch it, Yan Yirou will be the one who suffers!

She shielded Yan Yirou from a disaster!

Thinking of this, a trace of resentment flashed in Yan Yixuan's eyes.

"Xuanxuan, if you can win once, you can win twice. But an officer like Gu Chenye won't joke around with his future. If you want to surpass Rourou, marry Gu Sanshao's eldest brother!" Madam Yan chose Gu Yilou over Gu Chenge.

The other party is the eldest son of the Gu family, who will inherit the family business and become the head of the Gu family in the future.

Although she has a son, Gu Yilou doesn't mind that her daughter had a miscarriage.

"mom!"

Yan Yixuan looked at her with disbelief in her eyes: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Madam Yan retorted to her daughter, "I'm doing this all for your own good. Don't you want to surpass Yan Yirou?"

Yan Yixuan certainly wanted to!

I dream about it!

But her mother had no idea that marrying into the family would be no different from living a widow's life!

Besides, she didn't want to raise another woman's son!

"Go back now, let me think about it carefully." Yan Yixuan turned her face away, not looking at her, but her emotions had calmed down.

Seeing that she had taken her words to heart, Madam Yan breathed a sigh of relief: "How could I be at ease leaving you alone in the hospital? I'll stay here with you. You should rest."

Meanwhile, Shen Xinrong received news that Yan Yixuan had miscarried.

He only said one sentence—

“I knew long ago that she was not destined to be a member of my Ji family.”

Ji Mingsheng asked, "Are you going to cancel your son's wedding?"

Shen Xinrong snorted coldly: "The reason I agreed to marry Xianli was because of the child in her belly. Now that she has ruined the child, do you expect me to marry Xianli, a poor woman?"

Xianli needs a powerful alliance; we need to find him a daughter from a prominent family of equal standing!

Ji Mingsheng had no objection: "Okay, you can arrange it."

The next head of the Ji family must be his son!

???

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the window into the ward, adding a touch of warmth to the room.

When Yan Yirou woke up, she found that the pillow that had been placed between her and Gu Chenye was gone!

Her head was still resting on Gu Chenye's arm!

"..."

Is his arm ruined?

Yan Yirou quickly raised her head, trying to get out of his arms.

But as soon as she moved, Gu Chenye suddenly opened his eyes.

Yan Yirou apologized to him with a face full of remorse: "I'm sorry, I don't know how I fell asleep. Does your hand hurt?"

Gu Chenye's left hand was a little sore, but he didn't show it on his face: "It doesn't hurt."

"Doesn't it hurt?" Yan Yirou didn't believe him and pressed his arm.

Caught off guard, Gu Chenye winced in pain.

Yan Yirou complained to him: "Liar!"

"..." Gu Chenye's expression froze, and he tried to pull his hand back: "I'm fine, I'll be fine in a while."

"Don't move!"

Yan Yirou glared at him, pressed his arm and said, "I learned massage at the Chinese medicine pharmacy. I'll give you a massage. Tell me where it hurts."

Gu Chenye stopped moving, his burning gaze fixed on her: "Okay."

Yan Yirou's face gradually flushed red as he stared at her, her body temperature rising as if she had a fever.

Fortunately, I was sitting on the bed.

Otherwise, if your legs give way and you fall to the ground, you'll be incredibly embarrassed.

Yan Yirou lowered her head even further to massage him, treating herself like a heartless massage machine.

Gu Chenye stared intently at her apple-red cheeks, finding it impossible to tire of looking at her.

About fifteen minutes later, Yan Yirou got out of bed with a bright red face and said, "I'm going to wash up." She went straight to the bathroom.

Each VIP ward has a private bathroom and is quite spacious.

Ji Mo Yan was worried that her third son was in poor health, so she specially arranged for a bathtub to be provided.

Yan Yirou walked into the bathroom and immediately saw the bathtub. The image of the handsome man emerging from the bath last night flashed through her mind again, and her cheeks instantly burned hot enough to fry an egg.

Don't let your imagination run wild.

Form is emptiness, emptiness is form... What comes after that?

Yan Yirou got stuck.

Looking at her own blank and silly face in the mirror, she twitched her lips slightly and raised her hand to pat her forehead.

When Yan Yirou came out of the bathroom, Gu Jiu had already placed breakfast on the table. The air was filled with the aroma of steamed buns, pan-fried buns, soup dumplings, soy milk, and other dishes, which whetted the appetite.

Yan Yirou couldn't help but slurp.

So hungry~

She quickly went to the bedside, helped Gu Chenye out of bed, and headed towards the bathroom.

Before brushing his teeth, Gu Chenye said, "You go eat first."

Yan Yirou glared at him: "Hurry up and brush your teeth."

Does she look like someone who eats alone?

Gu Chenye understood her gaze, raised an eyebrow and smiled, then brushed his teeth and washed his face.

A few minutes later, Yan Yirou took her first bite of the soup dumpling and her eyes lit up: "This was bought from the dumpling shop near the Chinese medicine shop, right? It tastes exactly the same!"
