Green Fairy was both surprised and delighted. "That's wonderful!"
Gu Linchao was relieved and reached out to pat Wen Nongnong's head. He suddenly said, "It seems that stinky tofu has the effect of curing Nongnong's morning sickness."
Wen Nongnong: "..."
Green Beauty: "..."
"Although Nong Nong ate today and her appetite has improved, she can't eat too much," Gu Linchao gently advised.
Green Beauty quietly retreated with the empty bowl.
Wen Nongnong came to her senses, got up and sat on Gu Linchao's lap, hugging his neck and saying, "How did you know I ate stinky tofu?"
Gu Linchao paused for a moment, then said truthfully, "Nongnong's mouth smells like stinky tofu."
Wen Nongnong: "..."
She felt like she had been hit with a critical strike of 10,000 points.
Realizing what had happened, she hurriedly got up to rinse her mouth.
"Where is Nong Nong going?" Gu Linchao stopped her at the right moment.
Seeing the man's composed demeanor, Wen Nongnong stamped her foot and said awkwardly, "I'm going to rinse my mouth."
Upon hearing this, Gu Linchao chuckled, then with a slight exertion, pulled her back onto his lap and hugged her. "I was just kidding, there's no smell."
Wen Nongnong didn't believe it. If he hadn't, how did he know she had eaten stinky tofu?
He's saying this now to comfort her.
"You don't need to comfort me..." She covered her face with her hands, suddenly regretting eating the stinky tofu.
Even though Gu Linchao couldn't see her, he could imagine her annoyed look. He chuckled, rubbed her head, and explained gently, "I wasn't trying to comfort you. There really wasn't any smell. I knew because when I came in this afternoon, I smelled a strong odor in the room."
"I will never eat stinky tofu again." Wen Nongnong paused, buried her face in his shoulder, and said with a firm resolve.
Gu Linchao smiled slightly and gently patted her back. "That's good. You're pregnant now, so it's not good for you to eat strong-flavored things like stinky tofu. It's not healthy."
"I understand." Wen Nongnong said, somewhat annoyed.
"Let's go," Gu Linchao suddenly said.
"What are you doing?" Wen Nongnong asked, puzzled.
"Let me take you for a walk in the garden," Gu Linchao said gently, helping her to her feet. "You're pregnant; it's not good for you to stay cooped up in the house all the time."
Upon hearing this, Wen Nongnong had no choice but to follow him outside.
Gu Linchao is now familiar with the layout of the Prince's Mansion and can walk around on his own almost without any problems.
The two went for a walk in the garden, and then returned to the main courtyard for dinner.
I didn't eat much warm rice for dinner, but it was much better than usual.
After their meal, the two took a bath and then went to bed.
Wen Nongnong was pregnant and felt hot, so she not only wore light clothing but also kicked the blanket aside and occupied a corner by herself.
"Your Highness, I can't sleep. Can you talk to me?" She lay there for a while, then suddenly turned and clung to his arm.
Looking at the man with one hand behind his head, wearing a white undergarment, who seemed to always be cool and comfortable no matter when or where, she felt a pang of envy.
Thinking about it, she couldn't help but lean closer to him.
Gu Linchao noticed and said with amusement, "Aren't you afraid of the heat anymore?"
"Because Your Highness feels cool and comfortable," Wen Nongnong said, rubbing her face against his arm.
Gu Linchao paused for a moment and asked, "You really can't sleep?"
"Hmm." Wen Nongnong nodded. "I probably slept too long this afternoon."
"Alright." Gu Linchao said two words in a low voice, then suddenly turned over, put his arms on either side of her, and leaned down to kiss her.
Wen Nongnong blinked, and then realized what he meant by "okay".
Could he be...?
"Nong Nong, concentrate." Noticing her absent-mindedness, Gu Linchao raised his hand and pinched her chin.
Wen Nongnong was stunned for a moment, then suddenly sat up and whispered in his ear, "Does Your Highness want it?"
Gu Linchao did not answer, but he deepened the kiss.
Wen Nongnong was also somewhat tempted, but Xu's words kept echoing in her mind.
In the nick of time, her reason returned, and she reached out and placed her hand on his chest, whispering, "Your Highness, it is not advisable to have sex during the first three months."
Gu Linchao stopped all his movements abruptly. He was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening, leaned down, and buried his face in the crook of her neck.
The man's rapid breathing reached her ears, making Wen Nongnong blush and her heart race. She raised her hand to wrap around his back, only to find it damp with sweat.
She paused for a moment, then said softly, "Your Highness, please lie down. I... I'll help you..."
Gu Linchao's breath hitched for a moment, and he silently got off her.
Wen Nongnong got up, lowered the curtain, and then knelt down beside his legs.
...
After a long while, Wen Nongnong leaned close to his ear sleepily and whispered, "Was it comfortable?"
Gu Linchao's handsome face flushed slightly. He avoided her question, helped her lie down, and said in a low, husky voice, "It's getting late, go to sleep."
