I spent far too little time with her.
That's true. Xian Mingyu is so possessive of Bai Xiaoruo, it's already a favor that he's willing to let her live alone. If it were before, he would have already come to her door with a group of bodyguards to take her away by now.
Each time, he watched helplessly as Bai Xiaoruo was taken away by Xuan Mingyu, feeling extremely resentful, without even having the right to stop it.
If I had the ability to give Xiaoruo happiness, I wouldn't have let her end up like this... I could have protected her, which is why that bastard Xianmingyu succeeded and forcibly took her.
"Brother Ziqian? Brother Ziqian?"
"Huh? What's wrong?" His wandering thoughts were pulled back by Bai Xiaoruo's calls.
"I'm a little hungry, is there anything to eat here?"
She hasn't eaten a single grain of rice since she woke up this morning, and she's been starving for ages.
"Yes, of course! What would you like to eat? I'll make it for you. Would you like some cream of mushroom soup?"
"Great, Ziqian, you understand me best." When I first got pregnant, I couldn't stand the smell of cream at all, but now it's much better. Except for the occasional loss of appetite, I can still eat the things I used to love.
"Then I'll go downstairs and prepare the ingredients. I'll bring them up to you when I'm done."
Silly girl, of course I understand you the best. I've watched you grow up since you were little.
"No need, Brother Ziqian, I'll go down by myself in a bit. You don't need to go through the trouble of bringing it up to me."
"Alright then, I'll go down first. It'll take a while to cook, so you don't need to go down so early."
"Okay," Bai Xiaoruo agreed, while Ji Ziqian had already turned and gone downstairs.
She took a small breath.
I turned my head to look out the window.
A cool spring breeze ruffled my hair, and soft sunlight streamed in through the window.
The weather is so nice today.
The sunlight was so warm.
Gently stroking her swollen belly, Bai Xiaoruo couldn't help but sigh: Baby, oh baby, if only Mommy could stay by your side forever...
Even if I really have to divorce your father someday, I will definitely fight for custody of you and never let you stay with your wicked stepmother.
Perhaps, Mom won't be able to give you a complete family, but Mom will still give you all her love and do her best to give you the best life so that you can be the happiest child.
