"Lotus?"
She turned around and froze.
The large umbrella is not held by a lotus flower, but by the Jianghuai region.
"Huaizhi? When...did you arrive?"
Jiang Huai's shoulder was half wet, but a smile still lingered on his lips.
"I arrived when Sun Chan came."
"What?"
Gu Jiangli was genuinely surprised this time.
"Then...you understand everything Sun Chan said..."

Her clothes remained dry throughout the journey, while Jiang Huaizhi's body was soaked on one side.
She quickly told Jiang Huaizhi to take a hot bath to prevent his illness from worsening.
A few days later, news came that the building was completed.
Just then, Lotus rushed over and whispered another piece of news in Gu Jiangli's ear:
"Miss, I heard that the Second Madam hasn't had her period for almost two months, and lately she's been feeling nauseous and vomiting a lot, and she's been craving sour plums. Everyone's saying... she might be pregnant!"
