Surprised?
There was no surprise, because she already knew about it.
It wasn't Qingluo and Zilu, who stayed at the Prince's Mansion after she returned, who told her. Rather, she guessed what Fu Hanlai wanted to do when Fu Hanlai asked Kangtai to send a letter to the capital—something he was indeed capable of doing.
It was precisely because Jiang Xuelin had guessed this that she had Green Luo send a letter back as well, so that the others could cooperate with Fu Hanlai's arrangements. Otherwise, how could Fu Hanlai have arranged for people to secretly dig a tunnel to connect the small study to their main house, bypassing Jiang Xuelin's people?
But she was still very happy to see Fu Hanlai running over through the secret passage with great interest.
It feels like they've done something incredible behind their elders' backs, and it's a victory for them—it really makes their hearts soar.
Seeing Fu Hanlai's excited expression, Jiang Xuelin also became excited. The two hid on the bed and whispered to each other for a while before resting.
"Aren't you surprised?"
"No surprise, I already knew about this."
Fu Hanlai: "..."
His handsome face fell.
After noticing this, Jiang Xuelin immediately added, "I guessed you would do this when you sent Kangtai to deliver the message!"
Upon hearing this, Fu Hanlai, who had initially thought that Qingluo and Ziluo, who had stayed behind, had discovered his secret and written to Jiang Xuelin, thus exposing it, immediately became happy.
Jiang Xuelin guessed this, and he knew exactly what Jiang Xuelin would do as soon as he had the idea. This kind of feeling is something that others cannot understand.
It was precisely because of this subtle feeling that Fu Hanlai was in a great mood, as if no matter what he did, as long as Jiang Xuelin glanced at him, she could guess everything and keep up with his thoughts.
Is this what they call telepathy?
In a great mood, Fu Hanlai lay down. Since it was summer, a thin blanket had been put on the bed, and the special material felt cool against his skin.
He hadn't rested with Jiang Xuelin for quite some time, and he couldn't sleep well at night. He hadn't been able to get used to it for several months.
The main reason was that he often thought at night what to do if Jiang Xuelin needed anything, but there was no one else in the house to ask for it.
Now that he was finally lying back down next to Jiang Xuelin, he could finally relax.
His mother really underestimated him. Although he was indeed a bit unreliable in the past, he never failed when it came to serious matters.
Lying next to Jiang Xuelin, Fu Hanlai couldn't help but place his hand on her swollen belly.
He hadn't seen many other women's pregnancies, but Jiang Xuelin's belly looked extremely frightening. He couldn't imagine what it would feel like to carry such a big thing around every day, unable to put it down for eating or sleeping.
"...Jiang Xuelin."
"what?"
Are you tired?
Although he could only accompany Jiang Xuelin during the day, even with only daytime, he knew how tiring it was over the past few months. It was truly exhausting, a kind of hardship that others couldn't comprehend.
It's not only hard work, but also very dangerous.
Jiang Xuelin turned to look at Fu Hanlai, patted her stomach, making a slapping sound, like she was patting a bulging ball, which startled Fu Hanlai so much that he almost jumped up.
"Stop filming! Stop filming! Be gentle!"
Quickly remove Jiang Xuelin's hand.
How can you take pictures like that? That big belly looks terrifying. You can't just take pictures like that, what if something goes wrong?
His mother said he was unreliable, but Fu Hanlai felt that Jiang Xuelin was not much better than him, and that someone should be found to keep an eye on her!
"It's okay, it won't crack, it's very sturdy, it doesn't really affect anything." It just means I can't exercise as usual anymore, and my activities are somewhat affected, but I don't find anything unbearable.
After removing Jiang Xuelin's hand, Fu Hanlai gently touched the swollen belly again, as if to check if it had been damaged.
The next moment, he felt something hit his hand, and his expression changed drastically.
"Jiang Jiang Jiang Xuelin, you've really messed up your belly by slapping it! It's not round anymore! There's even a bulge!"
So terrified, Fu Hanlai even forgot to lower his voice.
In the summer, she was wearing very light clothing, so Fu Hanlai could clearly feel Jiang Xuelin's belly. It was precisely because he could feel it so clearly that he was even more terrified.
—It's all over! Jiang Xuelin's stomach has really been wrecked by it, it's all bumpy now!
Jiang Xuelin blinked, looking somewhat innocent. "Did you break it? No, you didn't, did you?"
After saying that, she reached out her other hand and patted her stomach.
Fu Hanlai: "..."

Then he felt a lump suddenly bulge out on the other side as well.
"Hongluo! Hongluo!" The terrified Fu Ashou had forgotten that he had sneaked over from the tunnel to this place. He immediately shouted loudly, while pressing down on Jiang Xuelin's hands to prevent her from continuing to pat her stomach roughly.
By the time Jiang Xuelin tried to explain, it was too late; Hong Luo, who was guarding the door, had already led her people in.
Jiang Xuelin: Oh no, I've gone too far in teasing Fu Ashou.
Fu Hanlai was a first-time father, so of course he didn't know what fetal movement was. Jiang Xuelin was already six months pregnant, and the baby was much more active than before. However, she never reminded Fu Hanlai or told him anything, just waiting to surprise him.
But at that time, Jiang Xuelin never expected Fu Hanlai's reaction to be so strong.
After figuring out what was going on, Hongluo and Granny Yao breathed a sigh of relief and explained to Fu Hanlai that it wasn't a problem with Jiang Xuelin's stomach, but rather that the fetus in her womb was kicking him, and Fu Hanlai was just feeling the baby kicking him.
