Chapter 177 This is double happiness!
Chapter 177 This is double happiness!
Su Wan'er's eyes widened, seemingly spitting fire, her beautiful face slightly distorted with anger. She clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug deep into her palms, and her body trembled slightly uncontrollably.
"It's so unfair!" she muttered through gritted teeth, her voice trembling slightly with anger. "Why, why can Lin Qianqian get pregnant while I haven't had any luck! Lin Qianqian, you've opposed me time and time again, I'll never forgive you!" With that, she suddenly raised her hand and swept all the cups and vases on the table to the ground. With the sound of shattering porcelain, her anger grew even stronger.
"Even the Seventh Princess is pregnant, everyone can have a child, why can't I! Ahhh~" She screamed with her head thrown back, her voice sharp and desperate, as if she wanted to vent all the resentment in her heart.
Just then, Huan'er suddenly covered her mouth, her face turned pale, and she vomited. Without thinking, she hurriedly ran out the door.
Upon seeing this, Su Wan'er's angry expression instantly turned into one of bewilderment. Her brows furrowed tightly as she chased after the girl, filled with doubt, wanting to find out what was going on.
"Ugh..." Huan'er bent over, her hands tightly covering her mouth, but she still couldn't stop vomiting violently. Her whole face turned red, and large beads of sweat rolled down her forehead. Her body trembled violently from the pain, as if she was about to vomit up her internal organs.
Su Wan'er rushed over and, seeing this unusual scene, her brows furrowed instantly, her eyes filled with worry and confusion. She quickly walked to Huan'er's side and cautiously asked, "Huan'er~ what's wrong with you?"
Huan'er slowly raised her head, clenching her teeth, revealing a pitiful face streaked with tears to Su Wan'er. Her eyes were filled with tears as she sobbed softly, "Your Highness~" Then, with a thud, she knelt heavily on the ground, clasped her hands together, and pleaded with her eyes full of sorrow, "Save me!"
Su Wan'er frowned, a complex look flashing in her eyes, as if she had vaguely guessed something. She slowly reached out and gently helped Huan'er up, her voice heavy with suspicion as she asked, "You wouldn't be...?"
Huan'er lowered her head, her face full of shame, and stammered, "This servant is already ten months pregnant!" Her voice was very soft, as if she had used all her strength to say these words. After she finished speaking, she dared not look at Su Wan'er again, but her body trembled more and more violently.
Upon hearing this, Su Wan'er was stunned, her eyes wide with disbelief. She instinctively took a step back and blurted out, "What!" Her voice was sharp and abrupt, echoing in the silent air.
Huan'er's face was streaked with tears, her voice trembling with sobs as she said, "Your Highness, it was the last time with the Fifth Prince... after that time, I... I really don't know what to do!" As she spoke, she helplessly twisted the hem of her clothes, her eyes filled with fear and confusion.
Su Wan'er narrowed her eyes slightly, lost in thought. Soon, an evil plan swirled in her mind like a dark cloud. A wicked smile slowly crept onto her lips, instantly replaced by a solicitous and gentle expression. She whispered, "Huan'er, don't be afraid, I can help you! Do you trust me?" As she spoke, she looked at Huan'er sincerely, her eyes filled with boundless concern.
Huan'er hesitated for a moment, then subconsciously pursed her lips. Although she was still a little uneasy, in this moment of panic and helplessness, she felt as if she had grasped a lifeline. In the end, she nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, Huan'er believes in the Princess."
Su Wan'er smiled with satisfaction, gently reaching out to stroke Huan'er's face tenderly, her eyes full of affection, like an elder caring for a younger generation: "Good child, since you trust me, then rest assured. I will arrange a quiet and comfortable place for you to rest and recuperate, have the kitchen prepare the most nourishing meals for you every day, and find the best midwife to take care of you. You just need to focus on your pregnancy, and leave everything else to me."
The naive Huan'er had no idea that this was just a calculated scheme by Su Wan'er. She looked at Su Wan'er with gratitude and nodded repeatedly.
Su Wan'er wore a faint smile that left no room for refusal, but her eyes were sharp as she stared intently at Huan'er and said slowly, "However, you must promise me that after this child is born, you will give him to me to raise, and this child will have to call me 'Mother' from now on!"
Upon hearing this, Huan'er's eyes widened instantly, and she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "What?" Her face was full of disbelief, as if she had heard something unbelievable.
Seeing this, Su Wan'er's face darkened, and her tone suddenly turned icy: "What, you don't want to? Fine, then I'll spread the news of your premarital pregnancy right now, so that everyone in the mansion, and even the entire capital, will know!" She slightly raised her chin, her eyes full of threat.
Upon hearing this, Huan'er turned deathly pale and trembled violently. She knelt down again with a thud, waving her hands frantically and pleading in a tearful voice, "No, no, no, that's not what I meant, Your Highness! I'm willing! Whatever Your Highness says, I'll do! Please, Your Highness, spare me!"
Su Wan'er nodded in satisfaction, her face returning to that hypocritical smile, and said softly, "Alright, it's settled then. When your belly starts to swell slightly, I'll use the excuse of you going back to your hometown to visit relatives to send you to a place where no one will find you, so you can rest and prepare for your pregnancy. I'll also hire a reliable midwife to take care of you, so you don't need to worry about anything."
Huan'er nodded hastily, her voice tinged with timidity: "Yes!" She lowered her head, not daring to look directly into Su Wan'er's seemingly gentle but actually calculating gaze.
The next morning, the gentle sunlight fell on the backyard of the Prince's mansion, as if draping everything in a golden veil.
Murong Yi and Lin Qianqian strolled hand in hand, their figures appearing and disappearing in the dappled shadows of the trees. Xiao Die and Wuming followed at a distance, protecting the two.
At this moment, Su Wan'er was standing under the corridor not far away, her gaze piercing Murong Yi and Lin Qianqian like needles. Her face was full of disdain, her lips were slightly downturned, and her eyes were full of resentment.
Suddenly, the corners of her mouth slowly turned up again, as if she had thought of some wicked plan. Then, she frowned, deliberately covered her mouth exaggeratedly, and let out a loud vomiting sound, breaking the tranquility of the morning.
The sudden sound instantly attracted the attention of Murong Yi and Lin Qianqian. They exchanged a glance, their faces showing both confusion and concern, and hurried towards Su Wan'er's direction. Xiao Die and Wuming exchanged a look and followed closely behind.
Murong Yi's face was full of worry, and her eyes revealed deep heartache. She quickly stepped forward, gently took Su Wan'er's arm, her brows furrowed, and her voice as gentle as a spring breeze: "Wan'er, what's wrong? Where do you feel unwell?"
Lin Qianqian followed closely behind, her face showing concern, and asked softly, "Did you eat something bad? Should we go and call a doctor to take a look?"
Su Wan'er raised her head slightly, a weak smile on her face, and said softly, "I'm fine... I... I've already seen a doctor..."
Upon hearing this, Murong Yi quickly moved closer to her, her eyes filled with concern, and asked anxiously, "Oh~ what did the doctor say? How is the situation?"
Su Wan'er lowered her head slightly, a shy blush appearing on her face, and said softly with a hint of joy, "This concubine... is pregnant!"
"Ah~" Lin Qianqian couldn't help but exclaim softly. Xiao Die and Wuming, who were standing to the side, looked at each other in surprise. Xiao Die's eyes widened and her mouth was agape, as if she could fit an egg in it.
Murong Yi's face instantly lit up with excitement. He hugged Su Wan'er tightly, his voice trembling with excitement: "Really? Wan'er, you...you really are pregnant too! That's wonderful, this is truly double happiness! Hahaha!" He hugged Su Wan'er, then turned to look at Lin Qianqian, his face beaming with joy, a smile that seemed to light up the whole world.
Lin Qianqian thought to herself, "What an incredible coincidence! I just found out I was pregnant, and she's right after. How did she pick such a perfect time?! Even having a baby is so complicated these days!"
She shook her head helplessly, her face showing a mixture of helplessness and gossip, her lips twitching slightly, her eyes filled with complex emotions.
Lin Qianqian smiled, her eyes full of sincerity, and quickly approached Su Wan'er. She gently took her hand and said in a sincere and warm tone, "Sister, this is truly a joyous occasion! I sincerely congratulate you on having a little baby. This child will surely be as intelligent and handsome as the Prince, and as gentle and beautiful as you. I hope your pregnancy goes smoothly and you give birth to our Prince's baby safely."
Su Wan'er smiled knowingly, grasped Lin Qianqian's hand, and said tenderly, "I've remembered your blessings, sister. It's my blessing to be able to nurture the new life of the royal family together with you. We sisters must take care of each other from now on." As she spoke, tears of emotion seemed to well up in her eyes, perfectly portraying the deep sisterly affection between them.
Murong Yi's face was filled with a gratified smile, his eyes full of tenderness and joy. He strode over to Lin Qianqian and Su Wan'er, gently stretched out his arms, and embraced one of them on each side, his movements gentle and full of love.
He laughed and said, "Haha, seeing you two sisters so affectionate makes me truly happy from the bottom of my heart. Qianqian, Wan'er, you are both the people I cherish most, and now you are both pregnant. This is truly a blessing from heaven for our royal family. In the future, you must support and look after each other, filling this royal family with more laughter and joy. I will also protect you and the children in your wombs, and I will never let you suffer the slightest grievance."
After saying that, his gaze swept back and forth between the two of them, his eyes full of doting and care, and his arms unconsciously tightened, holding them tightly to his side.
