Chapter 571: She Was Pregnant

Wen Ruan glanced at the man with dark eyes and said coldly,” Don’t think too highly of yourself. I’ve never mentioned you in front of her.”

Thinking of their current situation, Wen Ruan took a few steps forward and distanced himself from him.

“Young Master Leng, you don’t lack women. Please keep your distance from me and my daughter.”

Before he could say anything, she left in a hurry.

Looking at her slender back, Huo Hannian pressed the tip of his tongue against his cheek, and the corners of his lips curled up.

Did she still care if he lacked women?

She probably wouldn’t mind. She was married to Lord Dian Bei and had a beautiful and cute daughter. With her personality, how could she let her daughter be fatherless?

What was he dreaming about?

Huo Hannian leaned against the wall of the alley, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and bit it between his lips.

Green and white smoke billowed up, and his face was dark and gloomy.

….

The next evening.

Wen Ruan followed Zhou Heng into the palace to attend the banquet.

The palace banquet was held in the palace reserved for VIPs. The royal family, socialites, wealthy businessmen, and important officials all came.

Wen Ruan was wearing the clothes of the Princess of Northern Dian, looking dignified and elegant.

Nangong Xiao saw Zhou Heng walking over and greeted him with a smile.

Zhou Heng introduced Wen Ruan to Nangong Xiao. Nangong Xiao shook hands with her and gestured for them to sit at the main table.

Nangong Han and Huo Hannian came together and sat at the main table.

The two of them happened to sit opposite Wen Ruan. Wen Ruan glanced at them and saw Nangong Han holding Huo Hannian’s arm, looking extremely intimate.

Wen Ruan could not see through Huo Hannian. If he had a good relationship with the princess, why would he go out and find a lover?

However, the matter between them had nothing to do with her anymore.

The palace banquet was equivalent to a company’s annual meeting. Nangong Xiao went on stage to give a speech, and representatives from various places also went on stage to give speeches.

After the speech, everyone ate while watching the performance.

Although Zhou Heng was a crude person, he still took good care of Wen Ruan outside.

From time to time, he would pick up food for her. Wen Ruan smiled at him.” Thank you.””

“Are you used to it?”

“I’ve been here before, so I’m used to it.”

“That’s true. You’re not used to eating the dishes in northern Yunnan. You’ve lost a lot of weight in the past few years.”

Zhou Heng gave Wen Ruan a piece of fish.” Eat more.””

Huo Hannian, who was sitting opposite them, saw the two of them talking in low voices. Wen Ruan smiled at Zhou Heng from time to time, and his grip on his chopsticks tightened slightly.

His pitch-black eyes were dark.

“Han ‘er, why aren’t you eating?” The queen looked at Nangong Han, who had lost some weight recently, and picked up a piece of beef for her.” Did you quarrel with Hannian?”

Nangong Han shook her head.” No.”

She did not know what had happened to her recently. She was sleepy every day, had a poor appetite, and was not in much energy.

Afraid that the queen would be worried, Nangong Han ate the beef that she had picked up.

However, after just two bites, his stomach churned.

“Ugh!”

Nangong Han covered her mouth and retched.

Seeing Nangong Han’s reaction, the queen was stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted.” Han ‘er, you are-”

Nangong Han frowned.” Mommy, I might have an upset stomach. I’ll just take some medicine when I go back.””

The Queen smiled and glared at Nangong Han.” You silly girl, what stomach discomfort?”The queen turned around and instructed the maid to call the doctor over.

The queen’s voice was not soft. Wen Ruan, who was sitting opposite her, heard her.

He subconsciously looked at Nangong Han. Nangong Han covered her mouth and didn’t look too good.

Wen Ruan’s heart skipped a beat.

Was Nangong Han pregnant?

Not long after, the doctor came over.

There was a Chinese doctor in the palace who knew how to take a pulse. The doctor took Nangong Han’s pulse directly.

A moment later, he said to Nangong Han,” Congratulations, Princess. You’re pregnant.””

As soon as the news came out, some people were happy and some were worried.

Nangong Xiao and the Queen were naturally delighted. Today was such a good day at the palace banquet, and Nangong Han was found to be pregnant. It was really a double blessing.

Nangong Han was the one who was worried. She knew very well that the child did not belong to the Fuma.

Nangong Han pursed her lips and looked at Huo Hannian, who was sitting beside her.

Her hands under the table tightened slightly.

He was not a fool. He definitely knew that the child was not his. Would he expose her on the spot?

Nangong Han was furious. She had told Ah Li to take precautions and not let her get pregnant!

Every time he did as he was told, why was she still pregnant?

“Hannian, Han ‘er is pregnant. Aren’t you happy?”The queen frowned in dissatisfaction when she saw Huo Hannian’s expressionless face.

Huo Hannian glanced at Nangong Han, and his thin lips moved.” Of course I’m happy.””

Nangong Han heaved a sigh of relief.

He did not expose her in public, which meant that he still had some feelings for her!

Huo Hannian personally scooped a bowl of soup for Nangong Han.” The princess needs nourishment now. Eat more nutritious food.””

Nangong Han was a little overwhelmed by the unexpected favor, and a shy smile appeared on her delicate face.

Wen Ruan looked at the loving couple opposite her. She thought that she would not have any more emotions, but her heart still felt suffocated.

Nangong Han was pregnant!

In other words, he and Nangong Han had already slept together!

Although she had no right to blame him and knew that it had nothing to do with her, she still felt very uncomfortable.

It was as if an invisible black hand was gripping her tightly, making it difficult for her to breathe.

Even when she found out that he married Nangong Han, she had never been so flustered.

Because she knew that with the child, it would be impossible for them to be together!

“Wangfei, what’s wrong? You don’t look too good.”Zhou Heng asked with concern.

Wen Ruan lowered her long and thick eyelashes and shook her head.” It’s nothing. I want to go to the bathroom.””

“I’ll go with you.”

“No need. I’ll be back soon.”

Wen Ruan stood up from her chair and left quickly. She did not want to stay in this place for another second. She was afraid that she would suffocate.

She needed to adjust her emotions.

Wen Ruan found the washroom. Just as she entered, a slender hand suddenly reached out and pushed the door open. The man’s tall and cold figure squeezed in.

After the man entered, he locked the bathroom door with a click.

Wen Ruan instinctively wanted to open the door, but the man grabbed her wrist and pulled her over.

She bumped into the man’s firm chest. The tip of her nose ached and her eyes turned red.

She looked up at the man’s handsome face, which was magnified in front of her eyes. Her pupils constricted slightly.” Young Master Leng, are you crazy? This is the women’s washroom. What are you doing here?”

If others saw Fuma and the Princess of Northern Dian in the bathroom together, she would not be able to leave this palace today!
