Chapter 359
Zhao Changdu no longer thought deeply. This was only the worst plan. Just thinking that his Ah Ying would marry someone else and accompany another man made his heart feel as if it was being squeezed by an invisible big hand, and a layer of black fog instantly appeared in the depths of his eyes.
No matter what the future holds, he swore that he would resolve the Qiang tribe as soon as possible, return safely to Bianjing, and have children with Ah Ying.
Gu Ying's head hurt a little. She unknowingly fell asleep in the man's arms.
She missed the ferocity and coldness in the man's eyes, and missed his "I'm sorry".
Zhao Changdu sat quietly for a while, listening to her calm, shallow breathing before the ferocity all over his body dissipated.
If he was an uncontrollable demon, Gu Ying was the only medicine that could restrain him.
If fate wanted to separate them, then he would go against the heavens.
The man's gaze was profound as he glanced at the beautiful scenery full of flowers outside the window.
He got up and carried the woman in his arms back to the main room.
...
After Gu Ying woke up, she still felt a little groggy. She didn't know if it was her illusion, but as her belly got bigger and bigger, the frequency of her drowsiness increased more and more, and the feeling of headache became more and more severe. She was just more enduring and didn't take it seriously after taking some medicine prescribed by Mrs. Lin.
In the past few days, she couldn't stand the pain a little and wanted to find Mrs. Lin for a consultation.
Mrs. Lin took her pulse and found nothing unusual.
It was normal for pregnant women to be prone to sleepiness.
But Gu Ying's complexion was a little solemn. She raised her right hand and gently pressed her temple, where there was a meridian, pulsating.
Mrs. Lin didn't understand, moved her hand away from Gu Ying's pulse, and also followed to massage the acupoint for her. "Ah Ying, have you been worrying too much recently?"
Gu Ying shook her head heavily, "No... My mother and I have figured out almost all the strange poisons in the medical books. It doesn't look like it was caused by the poison. Mother, what is wrong with me?"
She had experienced illness before. If it was just ordinary headache, it would be fine. But this disease came for no reason, leaving her at a loss and unable to treat it, making her a little irritable.
Mrs Lin thought for a while and said, "It's probably because your body's tolerance has decreased after pregnancy, so it caused the headache. In addition, you were busy working hard during the early stages of pregnancy, so it left sequelae. But... I'll try to find a way for you. Continue taking the pills."
Gu Ying's eyes were filled with brilliant smiles. She shrugged her nose and took a bite of his fingers.
Her expression was like a lazy yet agile cat.
Zhao Changdu was deeply attracted by her lively and charming eyes. Overcome by emotion, he hugged her in his arms and couldn't help but kiss her.
It wasn't until the carriage shook as it entered the palace that Gu Ying tidied up her messy clothes with her face flushed red before getting off.
From a distance, the Gu family's carriage also stopped.
Gu Shuang ran over happily, grabbed her hand, her eyes shining bright like stars, "Sis, I haven't seen you for a long time. Are you well?"
Gu Ying smiled and said, "I'm very good. How about our fourth sister?"
Gu Shuang's face was full of joy. Her black hair was styled into a beautiful and delicate bun, studded with pearls and jewels.
She was dressed up today, wearing a peach red embroidered auspicious cloud cheongsam, with two green palace ribbons around her waist, setting off her plump rosy cheeks even more delicate and alluring, evidently she had been living a good life recently.
"Mother gave birth to a brother. Little Qingqing is so well behaved. Sis, come visit when you have time. You will definitely like little Qingqing."
The girl had a bright smile that made people feel comfortable.
Gu Ying thought for a while and smiled, "After leaving the palace, I'll come back to visit in a couple of days."
Gu Shuang was extremely excited, her eyes eager, "Then I'll come to pick you up sis, okay?"
The corners of Gu Ying's mouth rose in a smile, "Okay."
No wonder Gu Shuang was so enthusiastic to her. The Duke's Residence helped Fu Xun, so the Fu family also looked at her in a new light. The marriage between the Gu and Fu families was finally on the agenda.
The marriage of the little girl had been delayed again and again by the Fu family. Seeing others start ridiculing her, she must have felt uncomfortable.
Now that the two families were about to set a wedding date, the little girl must have been extremely happy.
Gu Ying was about to take Gu Shuang into the palace when Ye Qingchi finished talking to the prince and happened to come over to ask about her condition.
Gu Ying was fine, but Gu Shuang, who was chattering just now, suddenly stopped talking when she saw Ye Qingchi. The palm-sized little face instantly became nervous.
