Chapter 44 Baby

At the desk, Shen Yanchu put down his pen after reading the court bulletin, and the silence of the night was broken by the familiar voice in his mind.

He listened to her inner voice and couldn't help but want to laugh.

What a fool, he believed everything he said.

He had asked the doctor privately that healthy women would have their own cycles when they had their periods. Girls like Ning Yuan, who were irregular and didn't care much about themselves, seemed to be still alive and well, but in fact, they were weak inside.

If she relied on her age and neglected it, she would suffer in the future.

The prescription last time was given to her to regulate her menstruation. After taking it for so many days, it should be effective.

He thought that she had her period, and the misunderstanding of "pregnancy" would be solved.

Who would have thought that she actually thought she was having a miscarriage.

He picked up a book from the side and held it in his hand, and suddenly he was curious about how she would deal with it.

Ning Yuan forced himself to calm down.

Her health was not good to begin with, and the previous assassination made it even worse. In addition, she was running around and getting into trouble today, and she was very tired, so she had her period.

What should she do?

Ning Yuan covered her belly with cold sweat on her forehead, thinking secretly.

She had never told anyone in her courtyard about her pregnancy. Even if Zhu Xing asked about the medicine, she only said that she drank it to recuperate.

It was already midnight, the candles were out, only the bright moon and stars were hanging high in the sky. If she alarmed others, it would cause a bigger commotion, and who knows if it would be reported to the main courtyard.

If her father knew about it, not only would it not be properly resolved, but it would also lead to a bigger disaster.

She could only rely on herself now.

The most urgent thing was to take care of her first.

After getting used to the pain, there was actually no difference between seeing blood and having a period.

It was just that the former caused more blood and made the body more uncomfortable.

She endured the abdominal pain, cleaned herself, changed her underwear, and found a menstrual belt to temporarily block the bleeding.

After doing all this, she no longer had the strength to change the bedding on the bed.

Her stomach was still aching, so she simply leaned on the edge of the bed, bit her lip and closed her eyes.

Just bear it for one night.

She could wait until tomorrow morning, then she could have someone send a letter to Shen Yan.

But Shen Yan seemed a little hard to find.

He often went in and out of different places, either to the government office, the palace, or the scene of some unknown case. It would take a lot of time to ask around.

It would be more appropriate to ask Brother Pei for help.

He was often in the palace and could be easily found. He also knew about this and would definitely not turn a blind eye to her.

...It was Pei Zixing again.

Shen Yan paused while holding the book.

She hadn't even come to find him yet, so how did she know he was hard to find?

This book is compiled exclusively for you by the LK team. Besides, he might even take the initiative to deliver it to your door.

Shen Yan hesitated whether to take the initiative and go to her courtyard.

But then he thought, he could hear her inner voice, which was something unknown to others, and it was late at night. Menstruation was a woman's privacy. If he went there rashly, it might scare her again. It was better not to go.

It would be better to find an excuse to visit her tomorrow morning.

... Why is it so long before dawn?

Shen Yan was pondering under the candle, and the intermittent voice of his heart came again.

"Hiss... My stomach hurts so much, it hurts so much."

"Wuwuwu, if it was just my menstruation, I could ask Zhuxing to cook me some dumplings to warm my stomach."

"Unlike now, I am alone, no one loves me, no one cares for me..."

He held the book and didn't read a word for a long time.

Is it really so uncomfortable for a daughter to have her period?

He casually put on his outer robe and walked to the window, vaguely smelling her sweet body fragrance.

He couldn't help but think of how she looked when she was wrapped in his clothes.

Petite, soft, and pitiful.

Well, she was delicate by nature, and she must have been panicking when she first encountered "minor labor". How could she handle it without anyone to take care of her now?

Ning Yuan leaned against the bed with her pillow, thinking about the hot porridge in her mind. When she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly felt a cold wind blowing from behind her.

She turned around and saw that the door had been opened without knowing when.

The wind was rustling, and there was no candle in the room. The moonlight floating in the sky was half covered by a shadow, and the surroundings suddenly darkened.

She looked carefully and saw a ghost in white clothes and long hair standing against the light, standing at the door of her room.

...No way, so soon?

She shuddered suddenly.

She had just given birth, and the unborn child came to claim her life?

But this ghost was a little tall, not the size of a child.

But then she thought, if it was born safely, it might grow up to be tall. If it

died halfway due to her negligence, it would definitely blame her?

It is said that women are yin, and it is the middle of the night now. She is bleeding, maybe she has formed some kind of blood evil, which just opened up the channel between the yin and yang worlds, allowing it to come to her door!

But now she doesn't even have the strength to shout, let alone stand up and run away.

She could only reach out her hand tremblingly, pull off the quilt on the bed, and cover herself from head to toe.

He closed his eyes and said to himself, "Amitabha, you can't see me..."

Shen Yan frowned and walked into the room.

Did she have a headache?

Why did she lie on the floor when there was a good bed to lie on?

What did she think he was... a ghost in white clothes and long hair.

A joke.

He walked slowly to the bed, ignoring the small bulge in the quilt that was shaking constantly, and looked at the bed, only to see a pool of blood on the satin of the smoke powder.

It turned out to be stained with blood.

"Where is your mattress?"

He had checked when he came. There were five people in her yard, and except for her, they were all sleeping soundly.

Because he didn't want to have any more accidents and alarm others, Shen Yan deliberately lowered his voice. He lacked a lot of his usual calmness and indifference, but added a lot of tenderness.

Why do I feel that this voice is familiar and strange...

However, normal people will never ask such a question.

Because no matter whose mattress it is, it will be placed in the cabinet.

It can be seen that he is really a ghost!

Ning Yuan was wrapped in the quilt. The pain made her have no time to think, and she was unwilling to answer. She just hoped that this ghost would let her go because she was bored.

Shen Yan lowered his eyes and looked at the bulge on the ground. He sighed slightly and walked towards the carved cabinet.

His life is managed very well by his family. He never has to worry about these little things, let alone do it himself, so naturally he doesn't know where to put them.

But now he knows.

It would be nice to be able to hear his heart, which would save him a lot of trouble asking for explanations.

The cabinet door opened with a creak.

Ning Yuan was shocked when she heard the noise.

It, it, it...it could actually see through everything in her house and open the cabinet with precision!

Does that mean there is no use hiding under the quilt?

Her embarrassment, shrinking, and fear could not escape his eyes!

Shen Yan was speechless and choked. He dug out a new set of mattresses from the pile of brocades and silently made the bed for her.

He temporarily threw the blood-stained mattress to the floor.

Ning Yuan heard the sound of soft satin falling to the ground, and pulled aside a corner of the quilt to take a peek.

Because she was very close to him now, she could see the dark pattern of ice cracked plum blossoms on the corner of his robe.

...Shen Yan?

No, the performance just now was enough to show that it was definitely not a human. The Shen Yan in front of her now should be just its transformed form.

However... it didn't seem to have the intention to harm her.

She pulled down the corner of the quilt a little more and saw that the bed was already brand new.

She had heard the story of the Snail Girl. It was said

that the Emperor of Heaven saw a man who was lonely and helpless, but was prudent and frugal, so he sent the Snail Girl to the world to take care of his life.

Thinking that Ning Yuan had done good deeds all her life, it was time for good people to be rewarded. Although she had bleeding because her body was not fully recovered, it was all for saving lives.

So her baby not only understood her, but also decided to come and take care of her in person.

With a heart as kind as hers, what a good baby!

Shen Yan spread out the new bedding, turned around, lifted her quilt, and then was startled.

The girl who was originally scared to death lay on the pillow, her face no longer had any fear, her snow-white chin sunk into the soft pillow, and her clear eyes blinked at him.

"Are you my little baby?"

This book is exclusively compiled for you by the LK team. The voice is as soft as spring rain and as gentle as spring breeze.

Shen Yan: "..."

He clearly felt his cheeks burning, and it was completely out of control.

If it weren't for her pale face and cold sweat on her forehead, he would have thought she was just pretending to have abdominal pain to seduce him.

He knew that he should deny it immediately, but he didn't know why he couldn't say it. Not

only could he not say it, he even wanted to cooperate with her in acting out this scene of a human and a ghost.

It was not that he was greedy for something, but he didn't want her to know that it was he, Shen Yan, who did all these things for her.

"...The ground is cold."

He bent over and picked her up, put her on the soft bed, and tucked the corners of the quilt for her

. "Does it really hurt?" Shen Yan's eyes fell on her lower abdomen.

She nodded, her hands still covering her lower abdomen. "It hurts."

He looked a little helpless and said, "I'll go cook you a bowl of dumplings."

Ning Yuan looked at his back and was shocked for a moment.

She had never mentioned it to anyone, but he even knew that she wanted to eat dumplings now!

...If this is not a ghost, what else can it be?

In a short while, a bowl of boiled peanut dumplings with the skin and filling separated was brought to her.

"Sorry, I've never cooked these before."

"It was a bit of a failure."

"But that's all you have in your little kitchen."

It was more than a failure, it was simply a mess.

She propped herself up and sat up, also moved to pieces.

"It's okay, I just want to warm up, I'm not picky."

A ghost who doesn't care about worldly things was willing to cook for her.

Even if the cooking was a little worse, it was just because he didn't have much experience.

Compared with the father and stepmother who usually ignored her, it was much better.

If she could really give birth to him, they would definitely be a loving mother and a filial son in the future.

Thinking of this, she said with guilt: "Mother is really sorry for you, causing you to not be born."

Shen Yan picked up the handkerchief on the bedside, wiped the cold sweat on her forehead, and said hesitantly: "It's okay, it's not time for me to reincarnate yet, you can't be blamed."

Looking at her slightly doubtful eyes, he continued to talk nonsense without changing his expression.

"In our underworld, every ghost has a chance to reincarnate, but after the allocation, you need to wait for the woman to give birth in October. If the delivery is smooth, you can wash away your memory and get a new life."

"Wow, it's just like the storybook." She said softly.

He nodded and said, "The world is so big that there are all kinds of strange things."

"You...now that you're pregnant, I've lost this chance to reincarnate. I have no choice but to take care of you and accumulate merits to get the next chance to reincarnate."

"Is that so..." She looked a little sad, "You're such a good ghost, and it's all my fault that I've implicated you."

"But can you change your form to someone else?"

"I always feel a little uncomfortable facing this face."

"...Why do you feel uncomfortable?" His Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he said without any guilt, "I think this face is actually very handsome."

He lowered his eyes to look at his appearance.

"The figure is not bad either."

After using some hot peanut batter, the pain in her stomach was slightly relieved, and the originally pale lips were slightly stained with pink.

She frowned and said, "Handsome is handsome...You don't know how troublesome he is, and he gets angry if you are not careful." "

I'm so sorry, Ning...you."

He was about to sneer back, but before the word "Miss" came out, he quickly reacted and changed his words.

"You only have him in your heart. I have only seen his appearance in the underworld, and I can't transform into anyone else."

She was stunned: "You are talking nonsense!"

"It was just an accidental love affair. I don't like him!"

This book is exclusively compiled by the LK team for you "... Then who do you like?" He asked tentatively.

Could it be Zixing?

He cleared his throat and reminded: "I heard that General Pei Zixing of your country is brave and handsome. You often mention him."

"He is just a very considerate and responsible brother I know."

She looked at the man sitting by the bed, trying to overcome the weirdness in her heart.

"Is that so..." Shen Yan thought for a moment, and then asked, "Perhaps you are confused as a person in power, but I am a bystander who can see things clearly."

"Actually, I think that guy, what's his name... Shen Yan? That guy is actually quite good."

Ning Yuan was skeptical: "Tell me about it?"
