82 The Evil Master's Wife 33

◎Methods of winning favor.◎

Ji Zongxue was frightened, and Su Yanmei naturally did not go back that night.

Xi Xuan waited in the wing room for half the night, stopping by to check on the two children. Su Chao was full of energy, playing like crazy during the day and sleeping soundly at night. His little arms and legs were chubby, like a round glutinous rice dumpling. Su Mu, now almost four months old, wasn't as lively as his brother. He usually ate and slept, waking easily in the middle of the night.

Feeling someone approaching, Su Mu, who was sleeping in the cradle, opened his bright golden eyes and stared at Xi Xuan.

Xixuan leaned over, and when the little one touched his face with an "ah ah" sound, the warm and tender touch made him cry unconsciously.

Su Mu was confused.

"Dad, Dad..."

The baby's voice was very tender, still in the babbling stage. Xixuan turned his head away and wiped his tears with his sleeve.

He suppressed the sadness in his heart, his eyes still red, touched the child's tender cheek, and smiled faintly.

After coaxing Su Mu to sleep and covering Su Chao with the quilt that he had kicked off, he quietly left the bedroom and waited in the side room until dawn.

But his wife still didn't come back.

Xi Xuan sat beside the couch all night, not knowing whether she had forgotten her promise or was tripped by Ji Zongxue. As the darkness faded, dim light shone in from the window, enveloping his motionless and stiff body.

After a while, he moved, slowly stood up, straightened his back, and went to take care of the two children as usual.

Su Yanmei came back two days later.

The little vixen was so beautiful and lovable. He asked her to feel her heartbeat to see if it was fast, and asked her to stick to his bulging belly. He sucked and bit her fingers and looked at her with wet eyes.

There is a slight bulge in the abdomen, but the thin figure of a teenager is matched with the beautiful and shy face. The fluffy fox tail behind him sways as if it goes straight into people's hearts. He exudes the charm of a young pregnant man.

Therefore, Su Yanmei was kept for another two days and returned to Yuqing Mountain on the third day.

Xi Xuan said nothing, asked nothing, and did not mention that she did not come back that night. She just took good care of the two children and waited until nightfall to offer herself to them.

Yan Yingchan's life lamp remained in the clan's territory, and her sudden death did not cause any waves in the Xihe Sect.

At first, the Supreme Elder tried to investigate further, but when Xi Xuan heard the news, he asked him to give Su Chao some enlightenment on cultivation.

Thus, the investigation into Yan Yingchan's death came to nothing.

For the next month, the Supreme Elder stayed in Yuqing Mountain to give Su Chao enlightenment.

During this period, Su Yanmei did not stay overnight outside. She visited Ji Zongxue from time to time and occasionally went to visit there.

Zhao Lin actively took medicine and adjusted his body. Whenever his master's wife came, he would do everything he could to arouse her pleasure and hope to get her pregnant.

Su Yanmei occasionally enjoyed that strong sense of control and possession, and played with him, which was quite interesting.

Knowing that the eldest senior brother had seduced the master's wife, Ji Zongxue was angry, but she still looked obedient on the surface.

As the summer heat arrived, Ji Zongxue's bulging belly gradually grew bigger.

She was more than four months pregnant, and her belly had bulged into a small semicircle. Because the weather was very hot, he changed into the clothes prepared by Su Yanmei early.

The fabric was cold and thin as a cicada's wing, falling straight down, as if sliding gently across the bulging abdomen.

Compared to the early stages of pregnancy, the boy has not gained much weight, and his chin is pointed, like a cunning little fox.

He was in poor health and already looked thin, and now that he was four months pregnant, the bulge in his belly was particularly noticeable.

After experiencing morning sickness and sleepiness, the baby was growing slowly in his belly, often putting pressure on his waist and abdomen, making it difficult for him to sleep in the middle of the night.

He felt very tired and occasionally had a fever.

After learning about his condition, Su Yanmei treated him without taking off her clothes and stayed with him for a long time.

All the precious medicinal herbs were used on him. Perhaps because his master's wife was by his side, Ji Zongxue felt much more open-minded and even gained some weight.

Her cheeks were slightly puffed out, but it did not detract from her delicate and beautiful face, but instead added a touch of fresh beauty.

Just like a pearl that becomes increasingly rounder, it releases its own brilliance.

The more than one month spent with Master's Wife felt like a dream. Every time he opened his eyes, Ji Zongxue could see Master's Wife's beautiful face, and his heart was filled with happiness.

He loved hugs and being clung to by his pregnant wife. Su Yanmei just touched his hair and kissed him lightly.

The tranquility of the slowly flowing water ends with the sound from Yuqing Mountain—

Venerable Xixuan fainted.

The master's wife hurried back quickly.

Upon hearing the news, Ji Zongxue felt uneasy for no reason, even though he didn't know that his master also fainted during her first pregnancy.

So, on the hottest summer day, he put on a fox fur cloak to cover his bulging pregnant belly and headed to Yuqing Mountain.

The boy's appearance further confirmed the rumors that he was "seriously ill."

Not long after, Ji Zongxue learned that her master was pregnant.

He stayed in the room where he had lived before, sitting there for a long time, one hand silently reaching into his cloak and touching his abdomen which was aching.

Master is pregnant again.

The master is the husband of the master's wife.

The master's wife should take care of him.

What about him?

What should he do with the child?

When Ji Zongxue thought about his master's wife taking care of her pregnant husband and that he might not be able to see her until she gave birth, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, so much so that tears welled up in his eyes.

Why now?

Why was he even deprived of the brief time his master's wife spent with him?

Ji Zongxue felt extremely hateful and painful.

He bit his lower lip, a strong hatred flashed in his black eyes, but he stroked his pregnant belly very gently to ease the pain.

Because of his "serious illness", Ji Zongxue temporarily lived in Yuqing Mountain.

Xi Xuan, who was pregnant with her third child, was able to keep Su Yanmei by her side. She turned a blind eye to these "little things" and did not want to make her unhappy.

Both pregnant men lived in the yard, which made it much more convenient for Su Yanmei. She could just make double portions of tonic soup and medicinal food.

However, compared to the time she spent with Ji Zongxue in his yard, Su Yanmei spent much less time with him.

Ji Zongxue slept on the cold couch every night, stroking her round pregnant belly, looking at the empty space beside her, and waiting for her master's wife to come.

The Master's Wife is accompanying the Master.

That was her husband.

What is he...?

Ji Zongxue's eyes were slightly red. He lowered his head, hugged his belly, and talked to the baby in his belly.

As if whispering to oneself——

"You miss your mother too, right?"

"Mother should have been with us all the time..."

"Aniang has other children now."

"Maybe he won't come to see us for a long time."

"What do you think Dad should do?"

…

After a long chatter, Ji Zongxue whispered before closing her eyes and falling asleep: "... Let's snatch A Niang away, okay?"

*

There are two pregnant women living in Yuqing Mountain, and the demand for medicinal materials is much greater than before.

Most of the time, the pharmacy will deliver it in a timely manner.

Occasionally, Su Yanmei would go and pick the herbs herself.

Taking advantage of Su Yanmei's going down the mountain, Ji Zongxue calculated the time, put on a fox fur coat, walked out of the yard and went to find Xi Xuan.

At that time, Xi Xuan had been pregnant for just over a month, and her belly was not yet visible. Su Chao and Su Mu were lying on their backs in the cradle beside the couch, snoring soundly.

He set up a barrier around him to block out the sound, and the snow fox that hurried back from the foot of the mountain stayed outside the archway, waiting to see what happened.

After receiving the message from his apprentice, Xi Xuan stepped out, stood on the top of the stairs, and looked down at the young man in fox fur, with a condescending look.

"Master."

Ji Zongxue bowed and saluted respectfully.

Looking at the young man in snow-white clothes below, and thinking of all that he had done, Xi Xuan's lips curled up and he said sarcastically, "It's hard to believe that you still have eyes for me, your master."

Ji Zongxue had not received much instruction from him since childhood, and unlike Zhaolin, he did not have the heartfelt respect for his master. At this moment, he saluted, put down his hands, and stood up very freely.

However, when he stood up straight, he seemed a little unstable. He subconsciously supported his waist with one hand and pressed his pregnant belly with the other hand through the fox fur.

Because of this extremely natural action, Xixuan's expression changed slightly.

"you……"

The young man's gaze fell on his abdomen, his expression was complicated and indecipherable, and his eyes were full of inquiry.

Ji Zongxue boldly lifted up her fox fur cloak, revealing her belly which was bulging in a small semicircular shape.

"As Master has seen, I am over five months pregnant."

"As for whose child it is, I believe Master should know."

Every word the boy spoke was like thunder, and his round pregnant belly made Xixuan's eyes red.

Like those cultivators of Xihe Sect, Xixuan gave birth to two sons in succession, thinking that it was a good fortune from the Phoenix Clan that fell on his head, allowing him to have children and continue the bloodline of the clan.

Xixuan had never thought that he was able to have children because his wife had the ability to give birth.

But now, the facts are before our eyes.

The person Yan Mei likes is also pregnant with her child.

It’s been over five months...

In just over four months, the baby will be born.

By then, would Yan Mei have to leave with another family of three?

The young man standing on the high ground suppressed his bitterness, lowered his head and remained silent.

Ji Zongxue, not knowing what he was thinking, advised him in a gentle and calm tone, "Master, please divorce Master's wife."

Xi Xuan raised his head suddenly, and said in a strange tone: "Did she ask you to say this?"

Ji Zongxue keenly noticed something unusual and didn't agree with him. She just shook her head and said, "If Master's Wife loved you, how could she let me get pregnant?"

"Before, my master's wife and I lived together, and we always referred to each other as husband and wife."

"Soon, we will have a child who loves each other."

"Master, you can't stop us."

Hearing the voice, Xixuan's eyes unconsciously fell on his pregnant belly, and her heart ached.

Calling each other husband and wife...

Perhaps Yan Mei just didn't want to cause any more trouble in Xihe Sect, so she didn't tell him about the divorce. Once the Xihe Sect was settled, she would give Ji Zongxue a surprise.

They have a child in love.

And what was in his stomach was what he had forced so hard.

It was not what Yan Mei expected, nor was it out of love.

Thinking of this, Xixuan felt a dull pain in his heart, dizziness in front of his eyes, and he could hardly stand.

Before he could say anything, the young man standing in front of him suddenly fell to the ground without any warning.

Just at this moment, the very familiar green figure passed through the archway and saw this scene.
