In this way, in at most two months, with the weather getting warmer, her pregnancy will definitely be impossible to hide.
But she hasn't figured out the best solution yet.
However, perhaps someone was more anxious than her. Ever since the news of her affair with Fu Junheng spread, the man in black had never appeared again.
Whether she's genuinely afraid of Fu Junheng or simply unwilling to admit it, she's certainly not the only one who wants to resolve this matter.
Until late at night.
Mu Chenshuang drifted off to sleep.
Early the next morning.
Mu Chenshuang was watching Chengli practice swordsmanship in the courtyard. She never expected that Chengli was actually the last surviving son of the Prince of Libei. Suddenly, Qi Ye walked to her side and called out solemnly, "Miss!"
Mu Chenshuang turned her head and looked up at him. "You have something to say to me?"
Qi Ye hummed in agreement.
Inside the study.
“I thought about it all night. Rather than running away, I should face it. I don’t want to hurt Miss in the future because of me.”
Mu Chenshuang's pupils contracted slightly as she stared intently at Qi Ye. How could she not understand what Qi Ye meant by those words? "Are you sure you've thought it through?"
Qi Ye replied, "Miss should have noticed that there are quite a few people watching around the Marquis's residence today. Among them, there may be members of the Dark Night Assassins. After I was injured before, they probably already suspect me. Sooner or later, they will take further action."
Mu Chenshuang noticed this, of course. She remained silent for a while, looked at Qi Ye, and said, "Since you have made up your mind, Qi Ye, I can try to help you recover your memories, but actually I have ulterior motives and do not want to do so."
Qi Ye was taken aback.
Mu Chenshuang continued, "Once you regain your memories, I believe you will no longer stay in the Marquis's mansion."
Qi Ye lowered her eyes, her eyelashes casting shadows that reflected in her pupils, making them appear dark and gloomy. Her fingers, hanging at her sides, clenched tightly.
The space fell silent, and the leaves outside the window were blown in by the wind and landed on the windowsill, as quiet as if time had stood still.
After a while.
Qi Ye looked up at Mu Chen Shuang, his dark pupils still firm. "I'm sorry, Miss."
Mu Chenshuang sighed, "Alright, since you've made your decision, I won't say anything more."
"No matter what kind of person I was before, I will never forget the kindness you have shown me, Miss. I swear to be your protector, Miss, even unto death. I swear on my blood."
After saying this, Qi Ye cut his palm with one finger, and bright red blood gushed out. He swore to the heavens, "I, Qi Ye, swear to serve Miss to the death. If I disobey, may I be struck by lightning and die a horrible death. After death, may I not be reincarnated and be condemned to eternal hell."
Mu Chenshuang looked at Qi Ye with a deep gaze and vowed that since she couldn't stop him, she wouldn't stop him anymore. "Then remember what you said today, Qi Ye. If you dare to do anything to betray me, I won't let you off the hook."
"My life was given to me by Miss, so it naturally belongs to Miss."
Mu Chenshuang didn't say anything more. "You can go down now. I'll give you acupuncture tonight."
Qi Ye turned and walked out of the study. As soon as he stepped outside, he saw Linglong standing outside the door.
The two looked at each other for a moment. Linglong simply stared at him, then quickly concealed the emotion in her eyes and stepped into the study.
Qi Ye glanced back at Linglong, then looked away and strode away.
When Mu Chenshuang saw Linglong, she asked directly, "Did you hear everything?"
Linglong hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, Miss, I didn't mean to."
How could Mu Chenshuang not see through Linglong's thoughts? "I don't blame you, but Linglong, your thoughts are written all over your face. Are you afraid that Qiye will leave?"
