(12.4)

Mu Qing very quickly put this matter at the back of her mind. The fact that Naonao was hostile to her did make her a little helpless. But it wasn’t this matter that gave her a headache, it was the problematic matter that she had just realized this morning.

The thought that she might be pregnant because of last night’s incident made her heart feel like it was filled with lead, so heavy she could hardly breathe.

The curtain was lifted once again at this time, and when Mu Qing looked up, she saw little Youyou standing on the side of the curtain looking at her, with big eyes full of worry and nervousness.

The men came back a little early today. When Mu Qing returned to the settlement, it was just getting dark, but Li Mang was already sitting with Youyou’s father in front of the fire, eating tonight’s dinner.

Mu Qing served herself a bowl of food and sat far away, together with Youyou and her siblings. She guessed that Naduo hadn’t told Li Mang about the incident with Naonao today. As the two men talked, Li Mang seemed to be in a good mood, bursting out in laughter from time to time.

Sometimes, his gaze fell on her on the other side of fire.

The heavy feelings that she had temporarily forgotten about during the day crept back into her heart, especially with him gazing at her like this at this moment. It inevitably made her think about what was going to happen later in the evening.

It had taken her all day to convince herself after last night that she would be lucky and that it would be fine. She wouldn’t be that unlucky. So, tonight and for the next few nights, she absolutely could not let the same thing happen again.
