The inevitable had finally arrived. The next day, Luo Yunniang consulted a doctor and was found to be two months pregnant, though she hadn't noticed because her pregnancy symptoms were so mild.
This time, she decided to wait until the pregnancy stabilized before speaking out.
The two slept in the same bed day and night, yet Sheng Ge didn't realize she was pregnant.
A month later, Luo Yunniang's belly began to swell slightly, and she shared the good news with Sheng Ge.
"I'm pregnant, three months along. The doctor said if I take good care of myself, the baby will be born safely."
Xu Shisheng was stunned for a long time. "You're pregnant? When did this happen?!"
“I was pregnant before I came here.” Luo Yunniang touched her belly, her eyes gentle. “This child is very well-behaved and doesn’t make a fuss at all. When he grows up, he will definitely be as sensible and filial as you.”
Xu Shisheng lowered his eyelids and remained silent.
Luo Yunniang asked, "Sheng-ge, are you unhappy?"
Xu Shisheng forced a smile and gently patted her back. "Happy, of course I'm happy."
"Yunniang, you're pregnant, so don't go out. It's too chaotic outside lately; be careful not to hurt the baby."
Luo Yunniang agreed without hesitation, "Okay, I'll do as you say."
Day after day, her belly grew bigger and bigger, and the pregnancy was very stable. This child was indeed here to repay her kindness.
My child, now that your father is an official, we no longer have to suffer. You have come at the perfect time.
That night, Luo Yunniang felt dizzy and woke up to find herself in a carriage.
Xu Shisheng sat beside him, his eyes filled with coldness.
Luo Yunniang asked in confusion, "Brother Sheng, where are we going?"
Xu Shisheng said meaningfully, "I'll take you to a good place."
Luo Yunniang sensed something was wrong. "Sheng-ge, I'm not going. I want to go home. My stomach isn't feeling well, and the baby..."
"A child? Ha! Who told you to get pregnant in the last few months? Your belly got so big you couldn't hide it anymore."
Xu Shisheng's face was cold. "I thought I could play the good husband and gain a good reputation, then divorce you, you country bumpkin, after five years. You would take the money back to the countryside, I would get promoted and rewarded, and everyone would be happy. Why are you pregnant?!"
Luo Yunniang stepped back, "Sheng-ge, how could you think like that! Where are you taking me?"
Xu Shisheng grabbed her chin. "Excellent spot, we're here."
He dragged her out of the car, and Luo Yunniang clutched her belly tightly, crying, "Be gentle, the baby... Ah!!"
Before them lay a coffin, entirely black, exuding an ominous aura.
Luo Yunniang was terrified and shouted, "What do you want to do? Your father saved you back then and gave you the opportunity to study. You swore that you would only love me for the rest of your life. How can you face your father now? How can you face me and the child?!"
Xu Shisheng pushed her into the coffin expressionlessly. "Oh, then I'll say sorry. When you go to hell, I'll also say sorry to your parents. I'm really sorry."
Luo Yunniang fell into the coffin, where darkness enveloped her. She struggled desperately, but no one responded.
My throat felt like it was being choked, and a strong feeling of suffocation spread throughout my body.
She died, and her child died too...
