Chapter 123 Ex-fiancée
Si Ye took her hand and glanced in the direction the man in white left, his voice clearly unhappy.
"Didn't you say you would give birth to my child? You changed your target so quickly."
Sang Luo's eyes suddenly lit up, "You agreed?"
"W-what?"
She couldn't wait to come forward, her eyes charming, "Want to make a baby with me tonight?"
Si Ye blushed, offended by her shamelessness, but somehow he was used to it. He held her hand with one hand and held a bag of barbecue in the other, looking around, "Where's that little snake?"
"Its beast father took it away."
"Is that the person just now?"
"Um."
Si Ye's brows relaxed.
"I'll be leaving the south soon and going back to my hometown to attend the mother beast's birthday." Si Ye said to Sang Luo, "I haven't been back for a long time. This is her 500th birthday, so it's only right that I go back to see her. Do you... do you want to come back with me?"
Sang Luo stared at his beautiful peach blossom eyes with a smile, "Does this count as meeting the parents?"
Si Ye's ears turned even redder. He lowered his eyes, not daring to look her in the eye. "If you want to go, you don't need to prepare any gifts. Just consider it as accompanying me. If you don't want to go, I..."
"I'll go." Sang Luo took his hand and placed it on her belly. "After we meet the parents, we'll get pregnant right away."
Si Ye was shocked by her impatience and felt a little shy. "I'm still young and not in a hurry to have children. You...you don't have to...Even if you don't want children, I will..."
"But I want to have a child with you as soon as possible, before you advance to the Imperial Beast."
"This... you can't have offspring just because you want them."
"It's even harder for Imperial-level orcs to conceive. Once you reach the Imperial level, you might not be able to conceive anymore. You should be at peace with yourself sooner rather than later."
"..." This is true. The few royal beasts he knows are all old guys who are hundreds or even thousands of years old, and are almost extinct.
…
In the west, the northern city of Liao territory, the land of the Bi'an tribe.
The Bi'an tribe still has three major branches. One of the branches migrated to the north, and there are two major branches left in the western territory, occupying the northern and southern borders of the western territory respectively. The tribe leader of the southern border is at the peak of the king level, and is also ranked among the top three beast kings in the entire west. The tribe leader of the northern border is slightly weaker, at the true king level, but she is an extremely rare king-level female, and a pure-blooded Bi'an. No one dares to invade.
The relationship between the northern and southern tribes can be considered peaceful and harmonious, and they have always been intermarrying. It is said that the current husband of the northern Bi'an tribe leader is the legitimate son of the old Bi'an tribe leader in the south.
Tomorrow is the 500th birthday of the chief of the Bi'an tribe in the northern border. People from all directions come to congratulate him. The city is decorated with lanterns and colorful lights, the roads are paved with red silk, and the sound of gongs and drums can be heard. It is quite lively!
On the eve of the birthday banquet, Si Ye brought Sang Luo back to the palace.
The guards at the gate were all surprised to see him coming back.
"Young Master, you haven't been home for a long time! The last time I saw you was five years ago... Over the years, the clan leader often mentioned you to the servants. He must have missed you very much."
Si Ye sneered, "Why? My brother is so disappointing, how can she still find time to think about me?"
"This... the clan leader must be thinking of you in his heart!"
The servants remembered the strained relationship between mother and son, and no one dared to say anything more.
"Young Master, do you want to tell the clan leader about your return?"
"Whatever. Anyway, I'll be leaving tomorrow after giving her a birthday gift. It doesn't matter whether you know I'm coming back or not."
"Young Master, don't say that. The clan leader will surely be delighted that you can return before the birthday banquet. I will send someone to tell the clan leader right away."
Si Ye took Sang Luo to the courtyard where he used to live. He hadn't been back for a long time. There were some fallen leaves in the courtyard, but the house was clean. He guessed that someone would come to clean it every once in a while.
Si Ye sent someone to clean up a side hall next to the bedroom and let Sang Luo rest there for the night.
"It's enough for me to live in the same room with you. There's no need to send more people to clean up." Sang Luoke was determined to make the matter a fait accompli tonight.
"No." He was rejected righteously.
“…”
Si Ye glanced at her and saw that she was unhappy, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, but he resisted the urge to comfort her.
This is in the palace, with so many outsiders watching us openly and secretly, how can we allow her to... take advantage of us.
"Are you hungry? I'll take you to eat something." Si Ye asked her.
When he heard about food, Sang Luo regained his spirits and said, "Let's go!"
Si Ye took her hand and went to the canteen.
In the corridor, I ran into a pretty young woman in white. She was wearing a loose embroidered dress, but her pregnant belly could not be concealed. It was obvious that she was several months pregnant. Servants on both sides carefully supported her.
The female saw Si Ye was stunned and called out softly, "Aye..."
Si Ye paused and tightened his grip on Sang Luo's hand slightly.
Sang Luo glanced at Si Ye's expressionless face, as if thinking about something.
"Aye, it's really you who's back! Those servants didn't lie!" she said sadly, "You didn't come back to the last few clan leader birthday banquets. This time, I thought you wouldn't come back either."
The female in white had a look of reminiscence on her face. She waved away the two servants beside her and took a step forward.
Si Ye took Sang Luo and took a step back. He said coldly, "Bai Wan, do you have something to talk to me about? If you have something to say, please talk here. Don't get too close to me."
"Ano, you..."
Only then did Bai Wan notice Sang Luo beside Si Ye. Glancing at their holding hands, she bit her lip lightly, a look of sadness crossing her face. "You came back this time and brought a female with you. Did you know I was coming and deliberately try to piss me off?"
"Bai Wan, who do you think you are? You overestimate yourself. I brought back a female I like, what does it have to do with you?" Si Ye was as unruly and unforgiving as when they first met.
Bai Wan looked at him in shock, as if he had never spoken to her in such a tone before. Then, she thought of something and looked guilty. "Aye, stop talking in anger. I was wrong to you back then. I'm willing to make it up to you. After I give birth to this baby, how about I bear you a cub? My aunt also hopes that we can reconcile..."
She stretched out her hand to pull Si Ye, but was thrown away with such force that she almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, a servant caught her and saved her from danger.
Bai Wan covered her pregnant belly in fear, the gentleness on her face gone. She gritted her teeth and shouted angrily, "Si Ye, how could you do this to me!"
"My dear lady Bai Wan, I have made it very clear. I don't like outsiders getting close to me. Next time, I will really take action."
Si Ye grabbed Sang Luo and left without even looking at Bai Wan.
Along the way, Si Ye didn't say a word, and his whole body exuded a frightening coldness. Sang Luo vaguely guessed something, but never found a chance to ask. Until after dinner, a servant came to call Si Ye, saying that the old patriarch wanted to ask him something. He sent Sang Luo back to the courtyard to rest, and then left alone.
Sang Luo found an old servant and asked him about the gossip about the two people in a roundabout way.
The female named Bai Wan was actually Si Ye’s fiancée.
ex-fiancée.
Sang Luo thought of Bai Wan's big belly...
No wonder Si Ye is repulsed by females. It turns out he’s been hurt in love before.
