Chapter 1015: Chapter 1013: Almost Discovered by Your Father

The imperial guards on duty outside were all wearing tense expressions. They quickly made another round of inspection and came back to report, “Commander, no abnormalities were discovered!”

“Increase patrols, if anyone is found sneaking into the palace, you all bring me their heads!” Mo Qi was very strict with them.

The number of imperial guards outside suddenly doubled.

Zi Wei settled Su Yingxue behind a clump of plum trees, then quietly pushed open a corner of the window without making a sound, allowing Su Yingxue to peek through the gap and see the person inside the hall.

“Hubby!”

Su Yingxue felt a surge of emotion yet could only move her lips without daring to make a sound.

Her hand involuntarily rested on her belly as she gazed inside at the man busy with his head down, her eyes brimming with tenderness.

“It’s so late, and he still hasn’t rested…”

Su Yingxue sighed softly.

Chu Yihan’s work was something she couldn’t help with, and now that the child was already three months along, she didn’t dare tell him.

If he found out, he would surely have to divert more of his attention to her and the child, which would mean even less rest for him.

Even from this distance, she could make out the dark circles under his eyes. He probably hadn’t had a good night’s sleep in a long while, had he?

“Little monster! Do you see, it’s not that mommy doesn’t let you see your father, it’s just that your father is too busy. If you dare disturb him, mommy will flatten you once you are born!”

There was a slight twitching sensation in her stomach.

Certain little monster: I dare not move, I dare not move!

Way too scared!

Chu Yihan felt an odd sensation that night. He looked up at the window several times. Even though it was closed, he always felt as if someone was watching him through the window.

When he felt the intense gaze, Chu Yihan quickly stood up and rushed to the window, flinging it open.

“Whoosh—”

The crescent moon hung high outside the window, and the peach blossoms trembled slightly from the force of his action. The dewdrops on the blossoms fell to the ground.

Moistening things silently.

Chu Yihan felt a sense of wistful loss in his heart.

“Master, what is it?”

Mo Qi, seeing Chu Yihan like this, asked curiously.

Other than attending court, Chu Yihan had been residing in the imperial study for quite a few days.

Chu Yihan shook his head, a fleeting look of faint disappointment crossing his godlike face, “I seem to be hallucinating. Let’s return to the palace, I need rest.”

If he didn’t rest now, he would start thinking that Su Yingxue had come to see him again.

With the palace’s security tightened, it would be difficult for Su Yingxue to come without him noticing.

His hallucinations were getting a bit too strong.

His hopes for her, too high.

Su Yingxue and Zi Wei crouched on the wall, watching Chu Yihan return to his sleeping quarters to rest before she finally breathed a sigh of relief, “Finally willing to sleep. I wonder if he noticed or if this little monster has some kind of telepathy with him!”

Muttering to herself, Zi Wei responded, “He didn’t notice.”

“How do you know?”

“Due to his fatigue these days, otherwise, we would have been discovered.”

Zi Wei’s answer was as succinct as ever, but Su Yingxue’s heart sank a little.

Despite his peerless martial arts, his weariness was such that he hadn’t even noticed her.

Not to say she was disappointed, but her heart was definitely feeling a little unsettled.

Zi Wei took Su Yingxue back to her courtyard to rest. Lying in bed, she counted on her fingers how long it had been since she and Chu Yihan had been intimate, how long it had been since they had slept in the same bed, listening to his soft breathing as she drifted off to sleep.

She really missed him.

She wanted… to see him tomorrow.

When Qin Wan got up early in the morning, she was informed that Su Yingxue had gone to the palace.
