Extra 2 My child?
"Pregnant?"
Xie Suzhou's mind went blank for a moment, and he was unable to react. "Pregnant what?"
Su Cheng gently touched her flat belly, and a serious look flashed in her almond-shaped eyes as she looked at the man.
Xie Suzhou only felt that his eyes were getting dark and his legs felt a little weak.
"Suzhou!" Yan Ci, who had been driven out by his wife, quickly supported him and asked with a frown, "What's wrong with you?"
Xie Suzhou's handsome face turned pale. Just as he was about to speak, his peripheral vision caught a glimpse of the wooden basin filled with blood. His eyelids drooped and he fainted completely.
"Suzhou!"
"Thank you, sir!"
The Prince of Ruyang's mansion was in chaos, and soon a joke was spread: Princess Ruyang gave birth to a child with great difficulty, but Lord Xie, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, became overly excited and fell into a coma.
Su Cheng glanced at the pale man on the couch, frowned slightly, a hint of helplessness appeared in his eyes, and then he asked in his heart, "System, whose child is this in my belly?"
【Testing completed, the child is Xie Suzhou's.】
Hearing this, the confusion in Su Cheng's eyes grew deeper and deeper, "Then why is he dizzy?"
[Perhaps he was frightened by the sight of Princess Ruyang's difficult labor.]
"Ah Cheng..."
The man lay in bed with his clothes on, not knowing what he saw in his dream. His brows were furrowed and his long eyelashes trembled slightly.
Su Cheng was quite speechless. He gently pushed his arm and whispered, "Suzhou, wake up."
Xie Suzhou suddenly opened his eyes, turned over and sat up, his movements so fast that Su Cheng couldn't react.
"We can't keep this child..." After seeing the woman next to him clearly, Xie Suzhou gripped her shoulders tightly with both hands. Cold sweat oozed from his forehead, and he looked extremely frightened. "Ah Cheng, you can't be like the princess. If anything happens to you, I—"
Su Cheng raised his hand and gently hit his thin lips, his face full of anger, "Master Xie, can't you think of something good?"
Looking at his appearance, he must be frightened.
"Don't forget, when Qingchan first became pregnant with the young prince, the court was in turmoil. The prince was busy planning important events and was rarely seen. Qingchan became depressed and unwell, drinking pregnancy-preserving medicine like water. If it weren't for our old man Du, the young prince would have died long ago."
Su Cheng wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said with a smile, "We are living in a peaceful and prosperous age now, with no worries at all. Why are you so resistant?"
"But..." Xie Suzhou's body trembled slightly. He had never been so afraid before. Even when a sword was hanging on his neck, he never blinked.
But when it comes to Su Cheng, he can't remain calm.
"Ah Cheng, giving birth is too harmful to your body. I feel bad for you." Xie Suzhou held her soft hand, his eyes full of worry. "Neither I nor Jin Yu Ah Ming deserves you to take this risk."
Su Cheng smiled, lowered her eyes, leaned closer to him, and opened her pink lips, "Don't be afraid, I have a trick, and... this child is yours."
Xie Suzhou's eyes flickered, and before he could even express his joy, he quickly regained his composure. "Even if it were me, I couldn't just watch you suffer. Isn't having three children at home enough?"
Seeing that he still refused to give in, Su Cheng shrugged, "This child is in my belly. It's my decision whether to give birth to the child or not. If you don't want it, then after the child is born, let him call you uncle."
"Ah Cheng!"
Su Cheng raised an eyebrow and looked at him.
Meeting her gaze, Lord Xie, who dared to challenge even the emperor in court, lost his temper in an instant. He was silent for a long moment, his gaze fixed on her flat belly, and he almost gritted his teeth, "You can only call me daddy!"
Since I can't convince Ah Cheng right now, the worst that can happen is...
At worst, I could secretly borrow some medicine from Mr. Du, put it in Ah Cheng's daily meals, and give this child to...
The next moment, my left cheek felt a burning pain.
Xie Suzhou raised his eyes in panic, a hint of shock flashing in his eyes, "Ah... Ah Cheng?"
Su Cheng, who had long since unlocked the ability to read minds, remained silent and stared at him until he began to panic. Then he spoke in a deep voice, "Xie Suzhou, if this child is gone, I will divorce you."
"Ah Cheng..."
"Divorce? Is there such a good thing in the world?" Xie Jinyu walked into the house slowly with a bright smile on her face. Perhaps she had learned about Su Cheng's pregnancy first, so she rushed back from the palace in a hurry, holding several large boxes of supplements in her hands, and she didn't even have time to take off her doctor's uniform.
Xie Jinyu walked to the bedside like a butterfly, and without saying anything, she pushed away her second brother who had just woken up, and sat between the two of them. She gently wrapped her long arms around Su Cheng's neck, and with that charming face, she lowered her voice, "Madam, when do you want to divorce your husband? After divorcing my second brother, shouldn't you make me your wife?"
"Xie Jinyu, restrain yourself a little." Su Cheng slapped his hand away and stared at him. "If people knew about this, your colleagues would laugh at you again."
"It doesn't matter. Those who laugh at me are just jealous that I have such a beautiful wife." Xie Jinyu raised his eyebrows and smiled even more brightly. He lowered his eyes to look at her belly, with a hint of expectation on his face. "Is this child mine?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Doctor Xie was kicked off the bed.
Lord Xie kicked someone so hard that a shadow was left behind. A sneer appeared on the corner of his lips. "Are you dreaming?"
Xie Jinyu groaned, rubbed her hip where she was hurt from the fall, raised her head slightly, looked at Su Cheng pitifully, and called softly, "Madam, my second brother bullied me."
Su Cheng was helpless. He reached over and pulled him up. "How old are you two brothers? Why are you quarreling? You are not as steady as Ah Ming."
Xie Jinyu curled her lips, a little unconvinced. "The news that Madam is pregnant has spread to the military camp. I think it won't be long before Ah Ming will rush back home like me."
Xie Suzhou glanced at him indifferently and remained silent. Although he didn't know how Ah Cheng knew his thoughts, he became more honest and didn't dare to think about drugging him anymore.
"Why are you sitting there like an idiot?" Su Cheng glared at him, grabbed his big hand, and gently placed it on her lower abdomen.
Xie Suzhou's whole body trembled, and a sense of novelty that he had never felt before sprouted in the depths of his heart. He looked quietly at his wife's slender waist that could be covered by one hand, and his tightly furrowed brows suddenly relaxed a little.
He had never felt this kind of novelty with Cuicui and Chen Ge'er.
Xie Suzhou's expression froze for a few moments, then he looked up at her, his voice trembling, "My... child?"
Su Cheng smiled and nodded, looking at him expectantly.
Xie Suzhou stared at her blankly. Somehow, he suddenly felt a little sad and enlightened. For a moment, he suddenly felt that he should not be living the dream-like life he was living now.
He never mentioned it to Ah Cheng. He had been dreaming about a person during this period. He couldn't see the man's face in the dream, only a figure that looked almost the same as his own. He was sitting alone in a spacious and luxurious but empty house, staring at the portrait on the wall in a daze.
The one drawn on the paper is Ah Cheng.
