Lu Jingzhi was stunned. He didn't expect that she would come up with this idea.
"How could I dislike you?"
"Oh, you know whether you dislike me or not." After saying that, she slipped away from the bed.
Lu Jingzhi was the only one left in the room helpless.
…
Noon——
Lu Jingzhi had a bitter look on his face as he was surrounded by Mu Jin, Mu Wanjun and Mu Qing at the dinner table.
He looked as if he had committed some unforgivable sin.
Mu Jin spoke first, slamming his chopsticks down on the table. "Jingzhi, tell me, did you bully Yan An?"
"She was so angry early in the morning that she didn't even eat properly."
Great-grandmother Mu Wanjun also nodded, her eyes full of reproach, "Jingzhi, Yan An is pregnant."
"Her emotions are easily volatile. You have to give in to her. How can you make her angry?"
Ancestor Mu Qing crossed his arms and snorted coldly, "Don't think that just because you are a younger generation that I value, you can act recklessly."
Lu Jingzhi opened his mouth and was about to explain, but was stopped by Mu Jin's look.
He sighed helplessly and said with a wry smile: "Mother, great-grandmother, ancestors, I really didn't bully her."
"I'm worried about the dangers of the ancient secret realm, and she's pregnant, so I'm afraid something might happen to her."
"I just want to protect her and the child. How could I dislike her?"
After hearing his words, the three of them looked at each other and fell silent for a moment.
Mu Jin tapped the table lightly with his fingers, as if he was lost in thought.
The reproach in Mu Wanjun's eyes gradually faded, and there was a bit more understanding.
Mu Qing frowned with a complicated expression.
After a long while, Mu Jin broke the silence, "So that's how it is. We misunderstood you."
"But you also have to pay attention to how you communicate with Yan An."
"She's very sensitive now, so you have to be more considerate."
Mu Wanjun also agreed: "Yes, the young couple should talk it out properly and don't let the misunderstandings get worse."
Mu Qing nodded slightly, "This time it was a misunderstanding, but if you really do anything to let Yan An down in the future, even if you are someone I favor, I will never forgive you easily."
Lu Jingzhi nodded quickly, "I understand. I will pay attention next time."
After Lu Jingzhi's repeated explanations and apologies, the trial came to an end.
When Lu Jingzhi found Yan An, she was sitting on a stone bench in the courtyard.
His fingers unconsciously fiddled with the petals of the flowers nearby.
His little mouth kept mumbling something, but I didn't know what he was saying.
He walked over quietly, sat down beside her, and spoke cautiously: "Madam, are you still angry with me?"
"Look, you've tortured these flowers beyond recognition. If you keep going on like this, they'll be in tears."
Yan An rolled his eyes at him and turned his head away: "Huh, you still remember to come?"
"I thought you didn't want to care about us anymore."
Lu Jingzhi quickly grabbed her hand, looking aggrieved: "God knows what I am doing, I'm just worried that you might be in danger if you go to the Ancient Secret Realm."
"Just think about it, what if a big and powerful monster suddenly jumps out and scares you and the baby?"
"My little darling can't stand it."
Yan An couldn't help but burst out laughing, but he still pretended to be serious: "You just like to talk nonsense, you just don't believe that I can protect myself."
Lu Jingzhi gently held her in his arms, resting his chin on the top of her head: "How could that be? My wife is amazing, I'm just too concerned."
"You don't know, last night I thought you might be in danger."
"My heart feels like it's being scratched by a cat, it's in turmoil."
Yan An leaned in his arms, her voice softening: "I shouldn't have lost my temper and said that you disliked me. I was just too afraid of being separated from you."
Lu Jingzhi kissed her forehead and said, "Okay, it's all my fault for not explaining myself clearly and causing my wife to feel wronged."
"No matter what happens in the future, let's discuss it properly and not get upset, okay?"
Yan An nodded obediently and looked up at him: "Then you promise me that you will let me go to the ancient secret realm with you. I promise to be careful and not cause you any trouble."
Lu Jingzhi sighed helplessly and scratched her nose lightly with his fingers.
"I really can't do anything about you."
"Okay, I'll take you with me."
"But you have to promise me that if you encounter danger."
"You must hide behind me, and don't try to be tough."
Yan An's eyes lit up and she happily kissed him on the cheek: "Great, I knew you were the best!"
"Don't worry, I will definitely listen to you."
The two of them snuggled in the courtyard, the sun shining on them.
The next morning, the sky was turning pale.
There were quite a few people standing at the gate of the Tiansha clan.
A huge ark stopped in mid-air.
Mu Jin warned: "Jingzhi, you must take good care of Yan An outside. If anything happens, quickly pinch the jade stone to call us."
Mu Wanjun held Yan An's hand, her eyes full of worry and reluctance: "Child, you are pregnant, you must be careful along the way. If you feel uncomfortable, don't force yourself to go."
Yan An nodded obediently, "Grandma, don't worry, I will take good care of myself and the baby."
"Wait until we come back and spend some time with you."
Lu Cheng stood aside, looking concerned: "Jingzhi, Yan An, this trip to the ancient secret realm is bound to be full of dangers."
"You must support each other. If you encounter danger that cannot be resolved, do not be stubborn and return quickly."
"Don't worry, Dad. We won't act rashly."
After everything was ready, the Ark trembled slightly in the morning light.
Lu Jingzhi held Yan An's hand and stepped onto the ark.
With a slight roar, the ark slowly rose.
Below, Mu Jin, Mu Wanjun, Lu Cheng and others waved goodbye.
Yan An leaned in Lu Jingzhi's arms and waved.
The Ark flew higher and higher, gradually disappearing into the horizon.
Lu Jingzhi and Yan An faced the rising sun and headed towards the Sun and Moon Valley in the center of the holy land.
The Ark was flying steadily in the clouds. Lu Jingzhi and Yan An sat in the room, looking out the porthole at the rolling sea of clouds outside.
Yan An leaned on Lu Jingzhi's shoulder and sighed softly: "Jingzhi, I'm a little tired."
Lu Jingzhi looked down at her and gently touched her hair: "Are you tired? Do you want me to massage your feet?"
Yan An blinked his eyes, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly: "Okay, it's been a long time since you helped me massage."
"Okay, today I'll let you witness my 'unparalleled skills' once again."
Yan An couldn't help laughing: "Okay, then I'm going to enjoy it."
Lu Jingzhi stood up, walked into the bathroom and got a basin of warm water. He tested the water temperature and after confirming that it was not hot, he brought it to Yan An.
He knelt on one knee, lifted Yan An's feet, and helped her take off her shoes and socks.
Yan An's feet are small and white, with round and cute toes.
Lu Jingzhi held her feet, put them in warm water, and said with a smile: "My lady's feet are whiter than jade and more delicate than flowers."
Yan An blushed and kicked the water, "Stop talking nonsense and focus on washing."
