As time flew by, Shangguan Wu had already checked into the hospital to prepare for childbirth, but Gu Yunzhen had not yet returned.
fraud!
He promised he would come back when she gave birth.
But now she hasn't even been seen.
Shangguan Wu couldn't help but recall that dream. In the dream, she was in a huge fire, sweating profusely and feeling very uncomfortable. Then, it seemed that the baby kicked her, and the scene suddenly changed. She felt herself being enveloped in warm water, and gradually she felt better and slept soundly until dawn.
She remembered the dream clearly when she woke up the next day.
Shangguan Wu was terrified.
She immediately called Yan Yirou.
Yan Yirou came over to comfort her, saying that Gu Yunzhen is the male lead and definitely has the protagonist's halo, so even if the world ends, he won't die.
Shangguan Wu was not comforted by these words.
Because the original plot had already spiraled out of control.
Will Gu Yunzhen still be the male lead?
She dared not think any further.
I force myself to stop thinking about it each time.
And so, day after day, her belly slowly grew bigger and bigger, like an inflating balloon.
A lot has happened during this period.
For example, among the people my second brother brought back, there wasn't a single girl with the surname Ji, but there was a girl named Masha who was looking for Zhuang Qian with a letter. When she saw Zhuang Qian, she cried and said that Sister Tiantian was dead.
After Zhuang Qian took her away, they never contacted each other again.
One day, Zhuang Qian told him that the Divine Envoy Organization had ordered him to deal with the Gu and Qin families. He agreed, but he left Changteng City with Martha overnight.
Her third cousin asked her if she knew where they had gone.
She found it strange, but she really didn't know.
My third cousin returned to the capital without asking any further questions.
She stayed until after her younger brother's one-month celebration before returning to the capital.
She didn't know what the village chief and the president of the perfumery association talked about, but the president of the perfumery association publicly apologized at the press conference, admitting that he deliberately made things difficult for the perfumer from Huaguo for his own selfish reasons, and also stated that the [Intoxication] perfume was created by an old friend, and resigned from his position as president.
This press conference sparked a lot of discussion on Weibo.
The International Federation of Perfumers was also impacted by his authority in the perfumery industry.
However, these matters are no longer relevant to Shangguan Wu.
She explicitly rejected the International Perfume Association's attempts to win her over.
As the weather grew hotter, the two old men returned to Hakuin Village.
We originally planned to take her back, but seeing that she was getting worse and worse, and worried that she might have a miscarriage in the mountains, with no village or shop in sight and no time to find a doctor for her, we decided to let her give birth before going back to the village.
Shangguan Wu also knew that something was wrong with her condition.
She tried to clear her mind and stop overthinking, but she couldn't control it.
Apart from Gu Shier's team and Meng Wen, all the people she sent out returned, and they were all more or less injured, unable to walk.
Meng Wen's men didn't find Gu Yunzhen, but they did meet Ji Kong and Yu Wan.
It was Yu Wan who saved them from the pirates.
But it was Yu Wan who betrayed them.
Otherwise, they would have gone with Meng Wen to find the Fourth Young Master.
Shangguan Wu told Du Wei to take them to the hospital to recover from their injuries before they could return to work.
As for Yu Wan, it can only be said that one wrong step led to another. Since she made her choice, she has to accept whatever the outcome may be, and it has nothing to do with others.
Shangguan Wu will never see her again, nor is there any need to.
They are not on the same path.
After Shangguan Wu was hospitalized, people came to talk to her every day, afraid that she would be bored and overthink things.
Even Xiao Bao would come to see her every day after school before going home.
Recently, Jimo Yan has been so worried that several strands of her hair have turned white.
I often can't fall asleep in the middle of the night.
That evening, Gu Qingyu couldn't stand it anymore and suggested, "Find her something to do. She'll overthink things if she's idle."
Ji Moyan slapped him on the chest: "Are you even human? Making Wu Bao do things while she's heavily pregnant, just wait until the old man comes back and deals with you!"
Gu Qingyu's lips twitched twice. How was he not human?
It's as if he's abusing his daughter-in-law.
"What I mean is, find something for her to come up with ideas for, and encourage her to use her brain. It's better than her scaring herself all by herself."
Jimo Yan understood.
But she was also worried about her youngest son, so she grabbed her husband and asked, "Have you heard anything about the fourth child lately?"
Gu Qingyu simply replied with those two words: "No."
To avoid getting annoyed by his wife, he added, "No news right now is good news."
Ji Moyan punched him lightly: "That's like saying nothing at all, pay attention!"
Gu Qingyu was quite helpless.
The fourth son is also his son, how could he not care?
But there are some things I can't say to my wife, what if she gets upset?
"I'll go look there again tomorrow."
Are you sure the fourth brother is still there?
Ji Moyan also went to the scene and saw that a large area of forest had been burned away. The traces of Lao Si and his group entering the Black Forest had also been burned to the ground, making the search even more difficult.
But she hadn't found it after searching for so long, and she didn't dare to think about it anymore; she couldn't bear the consequences.
Ji Moyan pressed his hand to his chest, his breathing gradually becoming rapid.
Gu Qingyu noticed her change and immediately helped her catch her breath, reassuring her, "Don't worry, I promise, we'll find them even if we have to dig three feet into the ground!"
Immediately, Ji Moyan looked at him with tears in her eyes: "Is the fourth brother already...?"
Gu Qingyu interrupted her: "He's still alive, and his son is about to be born. How could he bear to abandon them, mother and child!"
Ji Moyan was taken aback at first, then nodded repeatedly: "Yes, you're right. Fourth Brother likes Wubao so much, he'll definitely be fine!"
"Go to sleep."
After Ji Moyan's tense nerves relaxed, a wave of sleepiness washed over her, and she fell into a deep sleep in Gu Qingyu's arms.
Gu Qingyu looked at his wife's face, his brows furrowed.
The doctor said it's only a matter of time before the fourth brother and the others wake up.
They will naturally return to the imperial city when they wake up.
If he hasn't come back, it means he's still not awake.
Gong Wujue's men discovered a ditch in the Black Forest, filled with animal skeletons. After digging it open, they found a cave, but no one was inside.
But they found an iron shovel in the cave, which meant that someone had been there.
So they ventured deeper into the cave and discovered another space underground, which turned out to be a secret laboratory.
There was blood and bullet fragments in the laboratory, indicating that a gunfight had taken place.
Fortunately, there were no bodies.
They found a place connected to the seabed. The submarine was gone, but there were seven or eight dead people around the pool. They were wearing white lab coats and were probably from the laboratory. The water in the pool was stained red with blood.
Someone went into the water to investigate and almost lost their life there.
It turns out that a glass tunnel was built there, allowing people to leave the island without anyone noticing.
However, Gong Wujue had already set up a defensive line in all directions around the island, whether in the air or in the sea. Even if he couldn't stop people, he could at least issue a warning, but there was still no response.
Considering the broken glass passageway, it's possible that the people who escaped were eaten by a great white shark.
Perhaps this is why the great white shark lingered underwater for so long?
