Chapter 958: Chapter 956: Warning the People in the Mansion

“Mmm,” Wu Jinyan curved her lips into a warm, pleasant smile.

The child’s arrival unsettled her, but since Su Hao had acknowledged it, giving her the courage to face the situation, she was ready to hold her head high and walk through it with him.

Su Han stayed at the Thousand-Jiao Pavilion while Su Yingxue accompanied Su Hao and Wu Jinyan back to the Marquis’s Manor.

Along the way, they overheard many people discussing Wu Jinyan’s premarital pregnancy.

“Have you heard? The Marquis’s young general’s fiancée is pregnant!”

“She’s not even married yet and already pregnant? How utterly shameless!”

“No kidding! That belly of hers—it’s so big she could almost give birth soon. Truly disgraceful!”

These unbearable remarks floated in the air, continuously assaulting Wu Jinyan’s ears, causing her face to gradually become tense.

Su Hao’s broad palm covered hers, constantly sending warmth through her skin.

Su Hao comforted her softly, “Jinyan, don’t mind them. When we get back, I will explain everything to grandpa first. He won’t blame you.”

Wu Jinyan appeared meek on the surface, “Mmm.”

But her heart was still racing wildly, revealing her unease even in its rhythm.

Su Yingxue, perceptive to her sister-in-law’s anxiety, reassured her, “Sister Jinyan, you don’t have to worry about grandpa. Although he appears stern and commanding, he is the dearest to my brother and me. Without grandpa, we wouldn’t be living so well. You are the woman my brother loves the most. Now that you are pregnant, I’m sure grandpa will arrange for brother to marry you as soon as possible.”

Su Yingxue’s smiling eyes briefly swept across Wu Jinyan’s belly.

Although the child wasn’t Su Hao’s, if born in the Marquis’s Manor, she would treat him as her own dear nephew.

The child was innocent, and Wu Jinyan was even more so.

When the carriage arrived at the Marquis’s Manor, Su Hao carefully helped Wu Jinyan down. Seeing that Su Hao did not come to assist her, Su Yingxue pouted and jumped down on her own, “Now that Sister Jinyan is here, brother doesn’t have time to help me. I’ll just have to go in first. Brother, you take your time helping Sister Jinyan.”

“Hey, Yingxue, don’t get the wrong idea, your brother is just…”

Wu Jinyan, thinking Su Yingxue felt jealous and imbalanced, tried to explain that Su Hao wasn’t neglecting her, his sister. But with her lightness skill, Su Yingxue vanished quickly.

She couldn’t stop her.

“Yingxue is not the type to be jealous, Yan’er, don’t worry. The moment this young girl returns to the Marquis’s Manor, she’s like this—lively and active, not at all like a princess. Let her go! I’ll support you, we can walk slowly,” Su Hao explained understandingly.

After hearing this, Wu Jinyan was no longer concerned and allowed him to support her as they slowly entered the manor.

Su Yingxue didn’t run off because she was being petulant. As soon as she entered, she ordered Zhilan and Zhifen, “Go and warn everyone in the manor immediately. No one is permitted to discuss Sister Jinyan’s premarital pregnancy. If anyone dares to gossip, and I hear even a single remark, they’ll be cast out of the Marquis’s Manor instantly!”

Zhilan and Zhifen had also heard the rumors in the manor, but they understood the severity of the situation and promptly bowed, saying, “Yes, Miss!”

The two maids, who carried weight within the manor, split up to spread the word. The message was quickly relayed everywhere, and the Marquis’s Manor’s servants all behaved impeccably, ensuring that Wu Jinyan did not hear a single whisper.

The tranquility of their return was a slight surprise to Wu Jinyan since her premarital pregnancy had become such a heated topic of gossip on the streets.
