Chapter 295 My Husband is Seducing Me
at night.
Meng Jinyao lay on the bed, propping her head up with one hand, and looked at him with a smile, saying, "Congratulations, my husband, you're about to become a grandfather."
Seeing her sly smile, Gu Jingxi knew she was gloating, rejoicing that Xiu Ming was about to become a father. You really shouldn't mess with this little rascal, otherwise she'll hold a grudge for a long time and will never miss any opportunity to mock you.
Gu Jingxi replied, "Ayao will soon be a grandmother too."
Meng Jinyao's smile remained unchanged as she asked, "What do you think of this matter?"
Without hesitation, Gu Jingxi replied, "How else can I see? Of course, I'll see with both eyes."
Upon hearing this, Meng Jinyao was stunned, then chuckled and said, "I never expected my husband to be so humorous."
Gu Jingxi paused, looking at her with an ambiguous expression: "You mean I used to be dull and boring?"
“I never thought that way, nor did I say that. It was you who said it, my husband.” Meng Jinyao giggled, laughing so hard her body trembled.
Gu Jingxi reached out and pulled her into his arms, gently pinching her cheek, and said solemnly, "If you bully our son, you can't bully me, understand?"
Upon hearing this, Meng Jinyao laughed even louder, snuggled into his arms, and reached out to cup his face and rub it: "Now that your son isn't here, I'll bully you to vent my anger."
Seeing her acting like a child, Gu Jingxi was happy and played along. A young girl should act like a young girl and have the carefree attitude that comes with her age, instead of being restrained in her words and actions and pretending to be mature.
Meng Jinyao ruthlessly tormented his face for a while, and when she saw his fair cheeks slightly flushed, she was momentarily mesmerized.
The man's pajamas were rummaged through by her, the collar was open, revealing his sexy collarbone, his cheeks were flushed from being rubbed by her hands, and he looked at her with gentle smiles in his eyes, just lying there without moving, looking like he was ready to be taken.
She swallowed hard and stammered, "Husband, you look quite alluring when you blush."
Caught off guard by the teasing, Gu Jingxi was momentarily stunned, then laughed: "She's clearly a young girl, why are you acting like a hooligan harassing an innocent woman?"
Meng Jinyao said in a serious tone, "Why don't you look in the mirror? You really are quite alluring."
Gu Jingxi's expression froze for a moment, then he lowered his head and kissed her. After a long while, he released her. Seeing her dazed eyes, rosy lips, and flushed cheeks, he said in a low, husky voice, "I think A Yao is more alluring."
Upon hearing this, Meng Jinyao's face flushed, her cheeks turned even redder, and she gave him a shy, reproachful look. After thinking for a moment, she felt a little unconvinced and hugged his neck to kiss him back.

Meanwhile, at Qingyuxuan, it was heard that Gu Xiuming and Li Wan'er had not yet reconciled and were still sulking. For several nights in a row, Gu Xiuming had his newly acquired maid, Yuan'er, serve him.
For a time, the servants in the mansion were all saying that Concubine Li, who was pampered and spoiled by the young master, had become arrogant because she was pregnant, which made the young master dislike her.
The servants at Qingyuxuan also changed their attitude towards Li Wan'er, becoming much colder and less attentive than before, and occasionally making sarcastic remarks.
After entering the manor, Li Wan'er had become accustomed to being pampered by the servants of Qingyuxuan and being cherished by Gu Xiuming. The stark contrast now left her feeling lost and disoriented.
At the same time, she also realized that in the deep courtyards of wealthy families, a woman's life depended entirely on the man. If she was favored, she would live well; if she was not, she would be neglected by the servants. Fortunately, she was pregnant and carrying the eldest grandson or granddaughter of the Marquis, so those people did not dare to go too far.
Having understood this problem, Li Wan'er also began to worry about the rest of her life and wanted to coax Gu Xiuming back. However, Yuan'er, who had been a maid in a wealthy family for so many years, was far more capable and knowledgeable than Li Wan'er, a woman from a commoner background. As soon as Li Wan'er said a word, Yuan'er could guess what she wanted to do.
Yuan'er was stirring things up, provoking Gu Xiuming's anger and making him even more annoyed with Li Wan'er than before.
Yuan'er smiled and advised, "Auntie is pregnant, so you should behave yourself and not cause so much trouble. Take good care of yourself and give the young master a son. Then you can regain favor by having a son."
Li Wan'er's face contorted with anger, and she retorted defiantly, "I'm pregnant now, that's why Brother Xiuming is looking for you. You don't actually think he likes you, do you? If he really liked you, why would he make you drink contraceptive soup?"
The only time Yuan'er was rebuffed: "You..."
Li Wan'er sneered, "She's just a maidservant, yet she dares to yell at me."
Yuan'er lowered her voice and said slowly, "How are you any better than me? You're just a concubine. The young master promised me personally that when the young master's wife enters the household, he will elevate me to the status of a concubine. At that time, we will both be concubines. Who will be more noble than the other?"
Upon hearing this, Li Wan'er's pupils suddenly contracted. She could hardly believe her ears. Brother Xiuming had clearly said that he would not marry a wife, saying that she was simple and weak. If he married a wife, she would definitely be tormented by her. How could he have changed his mind so quickly?
She instinctively retorted, "Impossible, you're lying!"
Yuan'er glanced at Li Wan'er with a strange expression, feeling that this Aunt Li was really spoiled by the young master. It was perfectly normal for a man to take a concubine. How could he only take one concubine? Even if the young master married his first wife and then took her as a concubine, he would continue to take concubines in the future. In a wealthy family, which woman would dare to say that she would be the last woman for her husband?
Seeing that she didn't speak, Li Wan'er calmed down and became even more certain that she was lying. She said firmly, "You are lying. You are deceiving me. Are you jealous that I am pregnant with Brother Xiuming's child and you want to make me angry and cause me to have a miscarriage? Does Brother Xiuming know how vicious you are?"
Suddenly, Yuan'er knelt down with a thud and pleaded in a mournful voice, "This servant was wrong, please forgive me, Aunt." After saying that, she slapped her own face while saying, "It's all my fault, I didn't know how to speak, and I made Aunt unhappy."
Li Wan'er was completely stunned by Yuan'er's actions. She subconsciously looked up and saw Gu Xiuming walking over with a livid face. Only then did she understand why Yuan'er had suddenly done this.
Seeing that one of them was arrogant and the other was kneeling on the ground looking pitiful, Gu Xiuming was even more annoyed. He reached out and helped Yuan'er up, then looked at Li Wan'er and scolded her, "Wan'er, you used to be gentle and kind, you wouldn't even step on an ant, but now you're tormenting a maid. If you have any complaints about me, you can tell me. What kind of skill is it to torment a maid who doesn't dare to resist you?"
Li Wan'er was speechless: "Brother Xiuming, I..."
Gu Xiuming didn't look at her again and directly pulled Yuan'er away.
Li Wan'er was filled with bitterness and grievances, and tears kept falling down her face. She had only rejected Brother Xiuming once, so why was she angry for so long?
Hongling originally thought that Li Wan'er was favored and that by serving her, she could also live a good life. However, she did not expect that Li Wan'er would fall out of favor in less than a year. Now she can only serve her and hope that she can give birth to a son and regain the young master's favor.
Seeing her crying with tears streaming down her face, Hongling comforted her, "Auntie, the young master is angry right now. After a few days, when his anger subsides, you can soften your stance and things will be as good as before. This Yuan'er might just be a tool the young master is using to anger you."
After hearing this, Li Wan'er's emotions gradually calmed down.
Hongling added, "Auntie, it's noon. Please have lunch first. You're pregnant now, so you can't let the babies in your belly go hungry."
Upon hearing the word "child," Li Wan'er's mind instantly cleared. Men and such didn't matter for now; the child was the most important thing. This child could help her solidify her position, and if the child was intelligent and successful in the future, she could also enjoy the good life along with him.
She nodded repeatedly: "Go and prepare the meal quickly."
Hongling saw that she straightened up instantly and stopped being sentimental, which showed that she was a person who could distinguish between what was important and what was not, and was not the kind of stupid person who could not be helped. She felt a little relieved, so she quickly agreed and went to set the table for her.
