As soon as Li Ma left, Yi Yi's tears, which she had been holding back, suddenly streamed down her face, covering her little face.
She couldn't accept giving birth to a monster that people would point fingers at, and she couldn't stop thinking about it. Although she knew that such wild thoughts were bad for the baby, she just couldn't help it.
Yi Yi lay on the bed, tears streaming down her face. Sometimes she seemed to see her child born healthy and no different from any other human being; other times, she thought about how her child had died in the womb before even being born; and most of the time, she thought that her child was indeed different from normal people after birth, a monster in the eyes of others. So, Mu Nanxun couldn't bear it and cruelly killed his own child...
The more Yi Yi thought about it, the more trapped she became, unable to extricate herself from the dead end. Li Ma called her several times from outside the door, but she seemed not to hear, lost in her own sorrow.
As darkness fell, Li Ma was so anxious that she kept stamping her feet outside. When she saw Mu Nanxun return, she quickly went to greet him.
"Young Master..."
"What's up?"
Mu Nanxun took off his coat and handed it to Xiao Fang behind him.
Li Ma hummed in agreement and followed Mu Nanxun toward the bedroom door, saying, "I don't know what's wrong with the young mistress today. She's been in a particularly bad mood and has been crying the whole time. She won't say anything when I ask her anything, and she didn't even eat lunch. I was so worried. Luckily, young master, you're back."
"What happened?"
"This... I don't know. It was fine this morning, but after talking to Miss Xia for a while, it turned into this."
Mu Nanxun stopped in his tracks. "Xia Bingqing?"
"Yes, but Miss Xia said she didn't say or do anything. The young mistress also said it wasn't her fault. Sigh. Since the young mistress became pregnant, her personality has changed drastically. She's not as cheerful and optimistic as before. She always cries over the smallest things. This isn't good for the young mistress and the baby in her belly. Young master, you have to think of something."
"Okay, I understand."
Mu Nanxun pushed the door open, went in, and closed it.
In the room, Yi Yi lay on the bed with her back to him, seemingly sobbing softly.
Mu Nanxun tiptoed onto the bed, embraced her, and turned her small body to face him. The glistening tears on her face broke Mu Nanxun's heart.
"Tell me, what happened?"
Yi stopped sobbing, her eyes red from crying.
"Mumu, would you kill your own child? Or would you kick us out of the house?"
Hearing this, Mu Nanxun felt somewhat bewildered. "What are you talking about? How could I possibly kill my own child? How could I possibly kick you out of the house?"
"What if...your child is a monster?"
Yi asked cautiously. She thought that the reason Mu Nanxun answered so confidently was because he had never considered that the child might be abnormal.
Mu Nanxun understood. It turned out that Yi Yi was so conflicted because she was worried that the baby in her belly would be a monster.
His answer remained negative.
No matter what the child looks like, whether he looks like a human or a fox spirit, he will love him.
However, given Yi Yi's current mood, she probably wouldn't believe him even if he said that.
After a pause, Mu Nanxun gently kissed Yi Yi's forehead.
