The candlelight in the room flickered, and the shadows of the two people on the wall were looming. Shang Yuxuan looked at the giggling person sitting on the ground. I don't know if it was a problem with the light or because she was dazzled. The tears in Qi Yeyang's eyes became more and more intense.
It became obvious.
She frowned slightly, thinking of what Qi Yeyang had done, and finally got up and left. It was so late, and she had to rush back now. No matter what happened to Qi Yeyang, it had nothing to do with her.
After she left, Qi Yeyang slowly raised his head, looked at the silhouette of his back, got up from the ground, and continued to pour himself a drink. It was enough for him to be drunk and vulnerable once in his life...
As soon as Shang Yuxuan left the room and walked to the end of the corridor, she saw Ruotong waiting for her with a lantern in her hand. When she came out, she had no extra words and just said, "Girl, please follow me."
Walk."
Following Ruotong, he quickly left the gambling house. There was still a lot of people outside, which was in sharp contrast to the loneliness and loneliness of Qi Yeyang just now. But in the prosperous and troubled times, who is saying what is happy and what is unhappy?
Where is Qing?
On the way back to Prince Han's Mansion from Shengye Gambling House, Shang Yuxuan had been feeling a stagnation of emotions that she couldn't get rid of. She couldn't describe the feeling, she just felt a little blocked.
He carefully returned to the courtyard where he lived. The courtyard hidden in the night was really inconspicuous compared to other courtyards in Prince Han's Mansion.
That's fine, I guess no one noticed that she had left.
However, when she opened the door, she immediately felt someone in the room. She paused in her heart and stood at the door. Who would come to her courtyard at this time?
Taking a deep breath, Shang Yuxuan suppressed the panic in her heart, walked to the table, lit the candle on the table, and the small and neat room lit up in the candlelight.
The person who appeared in her room turned out to be... Mu Yuhan!
She didn't want to be caught or suspected, but she didn't expect to be caught this time. Shang Yuxuan had no choice but to smile in her heart.
Mu Yuhan had been standing with his back to her. His figure was slender and well-proportioned. When he stood there, just his back could make people feel a powerful aura.
He didn't turn around until the candlelight in the room came on.
The dark complexion, the thin lips pursed slightly, and the slightly frowned eyebrows all conveyed a meaning to Xiang Yuxuan, that he was in a very bad mood now.
Shang Yuxuan just looked at him quietly. She didn't know if he knew about her going out to see Qi Yeyang, but she wouldn't move if he didn't move first.
"Where have you gone?" After being silent for an unknown length of time, he finally spoke, his voice low and questioning, and his frown became tighter.
Where did it go?
If she lied and told him that she went to the bathroom or went out to find something to eat when she was hungry in the middle of the night, would he believe it?
She didn't even know when he came. During the day, he was anxious to break up with her, and he came to her again at night. She couldn't guess what he was thinking. Now that she was pregnant and had to deal with so many things, she
I don't even want to guess anymore.
Shang Yuxuan's silence made Mu Yuhan's face look even more ugly, but in the end he just waved to her and said, "Come here."
Hearing this, Shang Yuxuan raised her eyes and glanced at him, but still did not move.
She admitted that she cared about him, but she was afraid of being hurt, so she could only pretend not to care, forgive her for being hurt, and forgive her for wanting to retain her poor self-esteem.
"Yu'er..." When he received no response, Mu Yuhan slowed down his tone and called out softly.
Shang Yuxuan's heart moved. She was indeed a soft-spoken person. She walked towards him and saw his hand that was still stretched out towards her. She looked at it silently and put her hand away.
Put it up.
Feeling that the temperature in the palm of his hand was a little cold, Mu Yuhan lowered his eyes and stretched out his other hand, holding her hands in his palm. Shang Yuxuan looked at him quietly, not knowing what it felt like.
Mu Yuhan, what do you want from me?
Sometimes you are cold-blooded, and sometimes you are gentle. You are suspicious of me, but you still act like this. What do you want me to do?
She always thought that she could guess his thoughts to some extent, but upon closer inspection, she couldn't see through him at all.
"Yu'er, listen to me and leave here, okay?" Mu Yuhan reached out and put Shang Yuxuan's hands into his underwear, then stretched out his arms to hug her into his arms.
Shang Yuxuan's heart trembled slightly. Did he really think about her? But even if he did, how could she leave?
Since we are destined to not be able to face each other calmly, then we should keep our distance.
Shang Yuxuan pushed Mu Yuhan who was holding her away, took his hand and wrote, "King Han, if you are here just to drive me away, then you can leave now. I will not leave,
Of course, you can also send someone to drive me out."
Shang Yuxuan wrote these words briskly, but every word was deeply engraved in Mu Yuhan's heart, making him suffocate.
For whom on earth do you have to stay by his side like this?
Mu Yuhan didn't know, the only thing he knew was that Shang Yuxuan was willing to sacrifice her own life for that man.
Mu Yuhan didn't know whether she had him in her heart or not, and he didn't even know how long he could keep her.
For the first time, I felt helpless towards a woman.
That's all, since she is determined to stay, if she really gets to that point in the future, don't blame him for being cold-blooded and ruthless.
Mu Yuhan left without any emotion at all. Shang Yuxuan stood there looking at the direction he left for a long time, and finally smiled to suppress the discomfort in her heart.
The next day, the weather was sunny and the wind was gentle. The summer wind came and brought a cool feeling. Now it is the time of late summer and early autumn, and the weather is gradually getting cooler.
After Shang Yuxuan drove away Mu Yuhan yesterday, she fell asleep again. It wasn't until late at night that she adjusted her mood, relaxed and fell asleep.
Unexpectedly, she slept until she woke up naturally today, and she felt much better. Seeing that the weather was nice, she got up and went for a walk in the courtyard. No matter what happened, what she had to ensure now was the health of her baby.
After walking around the courtyard and breathing in the fresh air early in the morning, my mood suddenly became much brighter. At this time, the maids and wives in Prince Han's Mansion also got up.
He walked in with a small bowl of water for washing and Shang Yuxuan's breakfast. Seeing Shang Yuxuan in the yard so early in the morning and looking at her smiling, he couldn't help but be startled and lowered his eyes.
When Shang Yuxuan saw Xiao Wan's expression, she felt something was wrong, but she didn't ask much. It wasn't until she washed up and sat at the table to have breakfast that she gestured and asked, "Xiao Wan, what's on your mind?"
When Xiao Wan heard this, a flash of anxiety flashed across his face, and there was a hint of avoidance in his eyes, but he just shook his head and said, "Madam, it's nothing."
Nothing happened?
Looking at Xiao Wan's secretive appearance, Shang Yuxuan would definitely not believe what she said. Xiao Wan was usually a lively person. If there was any novelty or new rumors in the house, she would tell Shang Yu
Xuan mentioned it before, no one would believe that she is really okay now that she is like this.
But seeing that Xiao Wan didn't want to say anything, Shang Yuxuan didn't pursue it. When Xiao Wan was willing to say it, she would naturally do it.
Sure enough, when Xiaowan saw Shang Yuxuan no longer asking questions, he breathed a sigh of relief. After serving Shang Yuxuan's meal, he specifically said, "Madam, if you have anything to do, just ask your slave to do it. There are many people outside who talk a lot.
, you are pregnant now, it is not appropriate to go out."
Um?
Xiaowan's words made Shang Yuxuan even more confused, but she still nodded and gestured, "Don't worry, I won't run around anymore for the sake of the baby."
Yesterday, when she went out, she was surrounded by so many people, and she offended many people, and even went to court. Even if Xiaowan didn't say anything, she originally planned not to go out again.
Living in this small courtyard, except for Liu Yan'er occasionally coming to make unreasonable noises, everything else is pretty good.
Hearing this, Xiao Wan seemed relieved and put away all the bowls and chopsticks.
Naturally, the medicine that Shang Yuxuan drank to treat his throat couldn't be cut off. He originally drank it in this courtyard yesterday, but it was inconvenient to light a fire here after all, and the smell of the medicine was indeed not very pleasant. Xiaowan talked to Shang Yu before leaving.
Xuan said this.
Shang Yuxuan felt that there was some truth to it, especially that pregnant women should not take medicine randomly. If Zhu Youchen had not promised her that it would never hurt the baby, she would have refused to treat her throat.
Now that Xiaowan has mastered the method of boiling medicine, thinking about it, he asked Xiaowan to change the location of boiling medicine to the kitchen of Prince Han's Mansion.
After Xiao Wan stepped back, Shang Yuxuan thought of Xiao Wan's expression and thought that maybe something happened outside or in Prince Han's Mansion that she didn't know about, and that it might be related to her.
She promised Xiaowan not to leave Prince Han's Mansion, but there were all acquaintances in Prince Han's Mansion, so it was okay to inquire about the news.
So he walked out of his courtyard.
At that time, just after passing through the back garden, they saw Zhuiyun and a little maid watering the flowers there with a smile on their faces. When they saw Shang Yuxuan, Zhuiyun still had the smile on his face, but the little maid was smiling.
The maid dodges a little.
"Good morning." Shang Yuxuan walked towards the two of them and said hello.
Zhuiyun also smiled and saluted, "Good morning, Madam Ya'er."
However, he saw that the little maid next to Zhuiyun looked at Shang Yuxuan with wet eyes. Shang Yuxuan became more and more confused. What happened today?
There was something wrong with the little bowl, and why was there something wrong with the little maid who usually smiled and saluted her when she saw her?
Zhuiyun also noticed something strange about the little maid next to him, and told her, "Hong'er, please go down first."
"Mrs. Ya'er, Sister Zhuiyun, I'll take my leave first." The little maid said and retreated.
Shang Yuxuan could naturally see that Zhuiyun did it on purpose, and the doubts in her heart couldn't help but become more intense. Are they hiding something from her?
