Chapter 151
Lin Zaozao looked at the familiar face in front of her, and her eyes involuntarily turned red.
Ever since Gu Shan, Murong Hai and the others left, she had been worried that something might happen to them. After all, what they would face when they went back was the empress of a country.
She had seen the empress of the abundant Fengshuo Country today. When her own interests were threatened, she was sinister and ruthless, killing her own daughter without any emotion.
So how could the heart of the empress of Canglan Country, who held the same position as the empress of Fengshuo Country, be kind?
From Ye Yi's willingness to kneel and give up his dignity in order to entrust little Liuli to her before leaving, it was very likely that the empress of Canglan Country was an even more ruthless ruler than the empress of Fengshuo Country.
Although she also understood that an empress of a country must have the necessary means.
But someone who could be so ruthless to their own child, how nice could her methods be when dealing with those who had betrayed her in the past?
Earlier, when she broke into Border City and saw Ji Fantian's miserable state at that time, she became even more worried about the situation of Gu Shan, Ye Yi and the others.
Ye Yi was the child of the Canglan empress. When she made a move against Ye Yi, she might spare Ye Yi's life out of mother-son affection.
But it was different for Gu Shan, Ruo Qiu and Murong Hai. Once the Canglan empress wanted to deal with them, she would definitely kill them.
She had sent spies to Canglan Country. Although the news she got was limited, from the little news, she learned that the situation of Gu Shan and the others was not good.
Or rather, if it wasn't for Little Xibei secretly protecting them, they would have been on the road to certain death as soon as they returned to Lan City.
During this time, she had been afraid of hearing the news of Gu Shan and the others' deaths. And now, her Gu Shan had finally returned safely to her side.
Among the girls, she cherished Gu Shan the most.
Little Taohua said Gu Shan was the Demon Venerable. To put it simply, Gu Shan was just a pitiful child who crawled out of hell.
Even when she still weighed over 200 jin, Gu Shan was the first to show his affection for her.
Gu Shan's fondness for her was so pure.
Facing such sincere feelings, which girl wouldn't be moved?
Now that Gu Shan was back, that was good.
It would be best if he didn't leave again after coming back.
Lin Zaozao stretched out her arm from the quilt, wanting to take Gu Shan into her arms. But when her hand had just touched Gu Shan's body, a cloak was draped over her.
"Zaozao, put on your outer garment, it’s cold at night!"
"It's okay, I'm still wrapped in the quilt! Not cold at all. Gu Shan, let me hug you. And welcome home! Although this home is not the home in Luoshui Village."
Lin Zaozao hugged Gu Shan's neck and choked up.
"Zaozao, wherever you are is home to me. I like Luoshui Village not because I like that place in Luoshui Village.
Zaozao, it's because there is you in Luoshui Village that I like it there and miss that warm, simple home."
Gu Shan let go of Lin Zaozao and wrapped her cloak tightly around her before placing his hand on Lin Zaozao's wrist to carefully take her pulse.
"What's the matter? Gu Shan. I feel quite good now, why are you taking my pulse?"
Lin Zaozao looked at Gu Shan's hand placed on her wrist in puzzlement.
"Zaozao, I want to see if you are pregnant."
"What? Pregnant?"
Lin Zaozao exclaimed.
"Yes! Zaozao, don't get excited first, you're not pregnant. I was just worried, so I wanted to make sure."
"Zaozao, there seems to be a place that can refine a gu worm that allows men to give birth. If you want a baby in the future, I'll find that kind of gu worm and give birth to a child that belongs to both of us. What do you think?"
"A gu worm that allows men to give birth? Gu Shan, it's unnatural for men to give birth. And using that kind of gu worm to give birth will definitely harm your body.
Gu Shan, I feel the same way as you. I also don't want our love for each other to be divided in the future because of a child.
As for having a baby, we'll just let nature take its course. Whether we have a child or not in the future means nothing to me at all."
As for me becoming the Empress of Han Kingdom in the future, and the must of having an heir, that would be even simpler. In one's life, one can only control what happens during one's lifetime. As for posthumous matters, naturally the next generation will worry about them. Why should we worry so much about it?"
Hearing Lin Zaozao's casual words, Gu Shan's eyes flickered slightly. Zaozao was thinking too simply. When she becomes the Empress of Han Kingdom, there will be many people eagerly trying to insert people around her.
In order to balance the previous dynasty, there was no way there could be a lack of other men around her.
However, this was also not something he should be concerned about. Anyway, the little girl was his. If anyone dared to stand by Zaozao's side and provoke him, he would take the chance when that person was not paying attention and kill him with one stroke.
He would find that gu worm again that allowed men to bear children. When the time comes, he would stand by Zaozao's side with a big belly, and see what kind of male monster would dare to step over him.
Thinking of this, Gu Shan's tightly knitted brows involuntarily relaxed. It seemed that he still had to hurry up and find that gu worm that allowed men to bear children as soon as possible.
Having figured it out, Gu Shan directly tore off his top and pointed at the new wound on his body, looking at Lin Zaozao pitifully and said,
"Zaozao, I'm injured. It hurts so much!"
Hearing Gu Shan's aggrieved voice and unable to clearly see his wounds in the middle of the night, Lin Zaozao wrapped herself in her cloak, preparing to light a candle.
Gu Shan turned around and took out a box of night pearls from the large sack behind him, placing it in front of Lin Zaozao and said:
"Zaozao, use this thing. It's brighter and clearer."
Seeing the dozen or so night pearls that Gu Shan had placed in front of her which were so bright they dazzled her eyes, Lin Zaozao couldn't help swallowing her saliva.
She picked one up and looked at it again. It was huge and shiny, all round and gleaming, and so valuable.
Good heavens! Something that only existed in TVs, and now she had over ten of them! The brightness of these ten or so night pearls could match several light bulbs.
Seeing a handsome man in such bright light felt so awesome!
If she could return to her world with these night pearls, her dad, mom, and awful brother would be over the moon!
With these, her dad would no longer have to worry about funding for his scientific research. And her mom could buy as much cosmetics and handbags as she wanted.
As for her poker-faced brother, he would have to hug her thigh and fawn over her, calling her Queen Lin Zaozao.
Thinking of other expressions appearing on her poker-faced brother's face, Lin Zaozao couldn't help but laugh.
She had not seen her poker-faced brother for so long. To be honest, she kind of missed him.
Hmm! Missed beating him.
"Gu Shan, where did you get these night pearls?"
"I picked them up on the road."
Gu Shan lied with a straight face.
"You picked them up?"
Lin Zaozao looked at the night pearl in her hand, then at Gu Shan's serious expression. She couldn't help but want to laugh.
How could there be such a wonderful thing! So many night pearls picked up on the road. Did Gu Shan think she was some ignorant fool!
But looking at Gu Shan's expression of "I just picked these things up, so what I picked up is mine", Lin Zaozao wanted to laugh again.
Oh well, no matter where they came from. Even if he stole them or snatched them, Lin Zaozao still wanted them.
