"Get out! Don't let me see you again."
Cen Xi gave You He a meaningful look, then coldly dismissed him.
That night, Cen Xi sat alone by the bed, staring at Shen Jinchen for a long time before deciding to leave.
Just as she was about to leave, she was grabbed by the dazed Shen Jinchen:
"Don't go, don't leave me, don't leave me!"
Cen Xi tried to break free of the other person's grip, but the grip tightened, and eventually, the other person even used internal force.
Cen Xi had no choice but to comfort the person on the bed:
"I'm not leaving, can you please let me go?"
Her response was the other person's heavy breathing, her hand still tightly gripped.
In the end, Cen Xi had no choice but to go to bed with him.
After Shen Jinchen realized that Cen Xi hadn't left her, he put his hands on Cen Xi's waist and hugged her tightly.
"If you keep doing this, you'll lose the baby. If you keep doing this, I'm really leaving you."
Cen Xi had no choice but to pry the other person's hands away.
The person in their sleep seemed to understand Cen Xi's words, and lay obediently to one side without moving.
And so the night passed in chaos.
The next morning, Shen Jinchen saw himself lying next to Cen Xi. His heart pounded with nervousness for a long time, but he met a pair of blurry eyes.
"You're awake. Are you feeling better? I asked Qingyi to tell the kitchen to make some porridge. Get up and drink some more to soothe your stomach."
Cen Xi rolled over and got out of bed, speaking casually, showing no sign of having argued the day before.
"Uh! Hmm!"
Shen Jinchen watched the other person get up awkwardly, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Last night he…
Oh well, what's done is done. The fact that she takes care of me means she still cares about me.
After silently washing up and setting out breakfast, Cen Xi personally served a bowl of porridge and brought it to Shen Jinchen, gesturing for her to drink it.
“Cen Xiwo…”
Shen Jinchen borrowed a bowl, intending to say something, but was interrupted by Cen Xi.
"You don't need to say anything more. You know whether last night was an accident or something you did on purpose. Since you're so eager to die, don't send your guards here anymore, so I don't have to go through the trouble of collecting your body."
Cen Xi glanced at him and said indifferently.
"I!"
Shen Jinchen didn't know what to say.
“If you don’t know what to say, then listen to me. I never intended to be with you before, even though we’ve already had a relationship, that’s an undeniable fact. Now that we have a child, I’m willing to compromise and be with you for the sake of the child. What I’ve said goes. Please don’t be jealous about the things from before, because it’s pointless.”
"Jun Jianchou, we were so close in our past lives, yet we couldn't be together. Do you think we'll ever be together again? So don't create an imaginary enemy for yourself. Let's just live like this, without bringing up the past or getting jealous for no reason, okay?"
"If you still want to dwell on the past and on Jun Jianchou, then let's break up. It would be best if you could also get rid of the child. That way, there will be no more entanglements, and we can go our separate ways peacefully."
Cen Xi glanced at Shen Jinchen and calmly said a lot of things. She knew that after saying these words, the other party would think that she was cold-blooded and heartless, but there was nothing she could do. That was just who she was. In her eyes, love was always a second-rate product that she could do without.
Perhaps that's selfishness; she only loves himself.
"Ah Xi, stop talking. I will never mention the past again, never mention Jun Jianchou again. Let's live a good life together."
Shen Jinchen finished the bowl of porridge in one gulp, just like drinking wine. He knew that Cen Xi was that kind of person, and if he forced her any further, their paths would really drift further and further apart.
It's a very obvious fact that he loves her, but she only loves herself.
"Since you've agreed, then so be it. This porridge was specially prepared by the kitchen on my instructions. Drink some more; it'll soothe your stomach."
Cen Xi looked up and gave him a meaningful look, then handed Shen Jinchen a bowl of porridge.
"good!"
Shen Jinchen took the bowl and was about to gulp it down in one go.
"You shouldn't drink porridge like that. You have to drink it slowly to soothe your stomach."
Seeing that he was about to finish the whole thing in one bite, Cen Xi had no choice but to remind him.
"good!"
Shen Jinchen paused in his bowl, while others picked up small spoons and fed the food to their mouths, bite by bite.
"How do you plan to deal with the rumors?"
The awkward atmosphere at the dinner made Cen Xi feel a little guilty, so she changed the subject to the rumors.
"In His Majesty's name, issue an edict of self-reproach, print tens of thousands of copies, and distribute them to various cities. Also, issue an edict of abdication and post it in all major cities. This way, even if they want to cause trouble again, they will have no legitimate reason to act. When the time comes, kill one if they come, kill two if they come. If they surrender, then we'll continue; if they resist, then we'll eliminate them."
When Shen Jinchen mentioned politics, his listlessness vanished, and he spoke eloquently, truly resembling a prime minister.
"Alright! Then I'll leave everything to you. I'll stay here and take good care of myself during my pregnancy."
After hearing what he said, Cen Xi didn't want to ask any more questions, so she silently started drinking her porridge.
So the two had a big argument and then returned to calm.
At the Wen residence, ever since Shen Jinchen discovered Jun Xiaoqiao's pregnancy yesterday, Wen Qiheng went outside to fetch a doctor to give her a comprehensive examination.
When the Wen family elders learned that their daughter-in-law was pregnant so quickly, they were overjoyed and sent a lot of tonics to Wen Qiheng's courtyard that very day.
Madam Wen held Jun Xiaoqiao's hand and kept comforting her:
"If there's anything you want to eat, just tell me, your mother. If Qiheng bullies you, tell me too, and I'll teach him a lesson."
Jun Xiaoqiao felt incredibly awkward looking at the family's overly enthusiastic manner. Could she say that she didn't want the child? Could she say that she wanted a divorce?
It's all my fault for overacting back then, pretending to be so deeply in love; now no one believes anything I say.
No wonder Cen Xi was so bold as to let Wen Qiheng bring her back.
If she were to say now that she no longer likes their young master, even the gatekeepers in this mansion probably wouldn't believe her.
"Why aren't you saying anything? Are you too happy? Or did Heng'er bully you?"
Seeing Jun Xiaoqiao staring blankly at her, Madam Wen couldn't help but grab her hand and ask.
“Mother, she’s just too agitated. Your son didn’t bully her. Xiao Qiao, your mother is asking you a question. Answer her.”
Wen Qiheng smiled and glanced at Jun Xiaoqiao, then explained to his mother.
"Oh, yes, Mother, I just didn't expect Wenlang and I to have a child so soon, I'm just a little excited."
Jun Xiaoqiao glanced at Wen Qiheng with her eyes and forced a smile in response to Wen's mother.
Deep down, I really wanted to curse, "Damn it!" This is a trap, and one that I dug myself.
They really shot themselves in the foot.
She wants to play dating games with people, but it's not limited to having children, oh my!
"But Xiao Qiao, why do you look so pale? Is something wrong?"
The more Wen's mother looked at Jun Xiaoqiao's expression, the more nervous she became, fearing that her grandson would be gone.
