Xiao Yan's body drifted. The disgusting feeling did not dissipate at all.

He moved his finger slightly, but it seemed to be a thousand jin.

"You really know how to cause a ruckus." He barely opened his heavy eyelids, but what entered his sight was the magnolia pattern on the edge of his sleeve. The man's bony hand was currently resting on the back of her hand, but she could clearly see that she was only wearing a white undergarment with some silver threads wrapped around it.

She felt as if her whole body had been crushed. A strange feeling came from her lower abdomen from time to time, causing her to open her mouth with great difficulty. However, she could only utter a low, hoarse sound, unable to identify a single word.

"Don't think too much into it. You only need to rest well in the remaining days." Duan Chengrui sat on the edge of her bed and used his free hand to slowly rub her head, brushing past her hair. His little finger inadvertently brushed across his cicada-like long eyelashes as he lightly laughed, "It's still rare for you to have such a obedient side."

Gu Danyan closed his eyes again. After a long silence, he finally realized who the man in front of him was.

Duan Chengrui kept on praising her, but his hand restlessly brushed past her shoulder. Finally, he lightly tapped on the tip of her nose, forcing her to open her eyes. Only then did he bend down so that she could see him, even asking, "Are you awake?"

Gu Mingyan frowned half-angrily, and it was only with all her might that she could leave a red mark on Duan Chengrui's wrist. Her hoarse throat squeezed out a hysterical and angry shout, "What exactly do you want to do!?"

"I'm just a bit dissatisfied with what I want." Duan Chengrui lightly pulled his slender hand away, and lightly weighed her wrist, which was obviously too slender. "Royal Uncle doesn't know how to treat you. You're always thin and petite, wandering around everywhere."

Gu Daiyan glared at him fiercely, but he clenched his teeth and didn't pull his hands out.

Duan Chengrui felt that she was like a wild cat, so he simply sat down on the bed and stretched out his hand to gently help her sit up. With the cotton bag that she created on her back, her body was so sore that it was hard for her to sit straight, so Duan Chengrui used his shoulder to support her.

Gu Liuyan was so dissatisfied that he wanted to support his bed and move away, but Duan Chengrui easily pulled her into his embrace. "Sometimes, I really do envy ghosts and monsters. You treat him even better than you treat Duan Chengxuan."

"I should have given you what you wanted." Gu Liuyan didn't move and just said a few words, but her chest was already hurting. She held the cloth tightly in one hand and said stubbornly: "I thought you weren't the one behind this …"

A trace of astonishment flashed past Duan Chengrui's eyes, before being replaced by ecstasy.

Even someone as cautious as Gu Tinyan had trusted him before.

He suddenly wanted to kiss her, but in the next moment, Gu Danyan raised his head with a pale face and a head full of sweat: "Let me lie down …"

He had to put her down again, and only then did he see that her face was slightly relieved. He found a comfortable position on his side and stopped moving, and after taking a deep breath, he opened his eyes again, his eyes clear. "My brain is a little weak right now, but I also know that you came to find me for a purpose."

"Now that you know the secret of eternal life, there are already many people who have targeted you. Furthermore, you are pregnant and infected with poison, I cannot sit idly by and do nothing." Duan Chengrui said in the same serious tone and bent down to look at her. "Moreover, I don't think Duan Chengxuan is worthy of you in the slightest."

"What?" Gu Danyan frowned, his muddled mind did not understand.

"He's not worthy of you. You should have given me a chance." Duan Chengrui changed his way of speaking and looked at her. "Duan Chengxuan only wants your method of immortality. He has long since let Su Yu Wan go in a place that you don't know."

"Impossible …"

"Then why didn't you hear of Mu Qing's whereabouts again after that? He also found all sorts of reasons to not kill Su Yu Wan?" Duan Chengrui took a wet handkerchief and wiped the sweat off her forehead.

Gu Danyan opened his eyes slightly and was speechless for a while.

Duan Chengxuan did indeed say that he wanted to know the truth, but there was no news regarding Mu Qing from that village. Moreover, she did not receive any news about Mu Qing. It was hard to say whether or not Su Yu Wan was really in the prison right now.

"Those subordinates of theirs had been severely injured, but they had been hit in the wrong places." Duan Chengrui once again threw the handkerchief back into the warm water and looked at her with a dark expression. "Don't you think that the rebellion of ghosts was too quick? Moreover, even though he paid you without reservation very quickly, his heart was filled with respect towards Duan Cheng Xuan. Have you ever thought about this matter in detail? "

"I believe him." As she said this, her fingertips tightened under the blanket.

"Whether you believe it or not is naturally up to you. But for me, keeping you by my side is the safest choice. " Duan Chengrui stood up and slowly walked outside: "Rest well first, I'll send someone to bring you some suitable food. If there's anything else, just send someone to get me anytime."

"You … "Not trapped..." Gu Mingyan half propped herself up from the bed.

"You've already been in a coma for nearly a month, and this border has already changed. Duan Chengxuan is currently leading his army to attack the thirteen border cities in order to bring you back, and your child, if nothing goes wrong, will be born in a month or so."

Gu Daiyan stared out of the window at the harsh sunlight with a slightly dazed expression on his face.

Why did Duan Chengxuan want to attack the thirteen cities of Fringe City?

Puzzled, she lay back down. She allowed Feng Yue, who came with a servant girl, to wipe off the sweat from her body, put on clean and fresh clothes, and brought over warm soup and porridge. This was because she had spent the entire month relying on meat porridge.

Feng Yue knelt on the ground to feed her porridge as she spoke in a low voice, "I hope that Your Highness will be able to recover soon. If you still haven't moved in these past few days, I'm afraid that you won't be able to give birth to this child."

The group of people who were in the same group all had different smiles on their faces. Feng Yue's face was filled with sincerity, and her eyes were sparkling.

Gu Danyan thought that he still knew how to identify people, but now he could only nod his head dumbly.

A maidservant was helping her massage her legs, while Feng Yue placed the empty bowl on a plate, letting someone send it off. She then raised her hands to hold Gu Daiyan's hands: "Your Highness, I will be by your side taking care of you these few days."

"Where's Duan Chengrui?" Gu Danyan couldn't even be bothered to call him Third Prince.

On the other side, His Highness the third prince has already decided to take his people and leave. After all, the ninth prince has always wanted to kill His Highness the third prince, just in case, I will first take your people to slowly leave this place and go to a more peaceful place to nurture your baby. The corner of Feng Yue's mouth lifted as she looked at her as if she were coaxing a child. "I hope that Your Highness doesn't cause trouble on the road this time, and I won't restrict you like I did with porcelain. You can choose anywhere you want to go."

"Even if I want to return to Duan Cheng Xuan's side?" Gu Xuan Yan suddenly laughed.

However, Feng Yue's answer was unexpected. "Yes, if this is what you wish for, then we will spare no effort to send you here."
