Chapter 387: Pregnancy
Chapter 387: Pregnancy
They say one can only reveal their deepest vulnerabilities to those closest to them.
He was no longer the lonely and helpless child he once was. He had grown up, taking on his own responsibilities and duties.
He could not allow himself to show weakness in front of anyone.
Yet, there was always that one person in the world whose single glance could shatter his defenses.
The silk in Liu Muyan’s hand slipped, falling silently onto the table bathed in a layer of moonlight, rolling silently to the floor.
She stood up, dazed.
Her ageless beauty was momentarily illuminated by the moonlight.
She walked to Lu Yuan’s side, seeming both disbelieving and relieved, her expression shifting, her eyes gradually welling up with tears.
"Ah..."
She wanted to call his name.
But just as she opened her mouth, she felt as though a powerful force had gripped her throat, the pain preventing her from uttering a single sound.
The Goddess is emotionless.
Yet, she had developed a human heart.
She had her own child, thus beginning a lifetime of concern.
Liu Muyan raised her hand to caress Lu Yuan’s face. The little boy who used to pout and play cute in her arms had grown into a towering, strong man.
But the stubbornness and grievance in his eyes were the same as she remembered.
He was her little A-Yuan.
Her little A-Yuan had returned to her side.
She lowered her head, holding his hands, gently touching the calluses on his palms from years of martial practice, her voice choked with emotion: "Which hand hurts?"
Lu Yuan whispered, "Both."
Liu Muyan’s eyes reddened, struggling to hold back her tears: "Let Grandmother take a look at your hands, little A-Yuan."
"Okay."
Lu Yuan let her lead him to a small stool by the window, just as he used to do when he was a child.
Back then, he was small, and Grandmother seemed like an omnipotent Goddess to him.
Now, he was taller than her, seeing the silver in her hair and the marks of time on her face.
She remained composed and elegant, still exuding divinity.
But she had aged, no longer chasing him through the mountains, no longer able to lift him with one hand.
Liu Muyan stroked Lu Yuan’s hands repeatedly, as if trying to erase all his pain and suffering.
Her forehead gently touched his.
I’m sorry, A-Yuan, I’m so sorry.
Grandmother didn’t protect you well enough.
Lu Yuan cleared his throat: "Actually, it doesn’t hurt anymore. I was just teasing you."
Liu Muyan looked at him steadily: "You’re still the same as when you were a child."
Lu Yuan smiled: "Grandmother hasn’t changed either. You’re still as beautiful as ever."
Liu Muyan laughed through her tears: "Smooth talker. Quickly, tell Grandmother about these past years."
As she spoke, she took his pulse, her expression changing.
"Your Cold Syndrome..."
Outside the courtyard.
A group of people got off the carriage.
Liu Feng'er led a few of them into the courtyard, arranging for her husband and son to help unload the luggage.
The Majestic King walked back and forth in the courtyard, hands behind his back.
Yu Zichuan remarked: "You’ve already walked forty-nine rounds. The last one was a step short."
The Majestic King glanced at him: "So what if it was a step short? What’s it to you?"
Yu Zichuan, unable to match the Majestic King, silently walked behind him and took that step.
Finally, he felt at ease.
Liu Qingyun wisely didn’t disturb her mother and Lu Yuan’s reunion. Otherwise, she feared she might get a beating from her mother.
After all, she had been beaten many times since childhood.
It was truly infuriating. Every time she got into trouble, she would drag the little rascal along, but her mother never punished him, always saying, "I don’t know your son, but I know you."
Where was the trust between mother and daughter?
Thinking of this, Liu Qingyun decided to sneak the Treasure Piglet back to her room without her mother knowing!
Hmph!
Liu Qingyun arranged for the group to stay in different rooms.
Shang Changle and Banxia shared a room.
Tan'er and Bai Yuwei shared a room.
Ji Li and Celestial Dragon shared a room.
Chen Long: "I don't want to live with him."
Ji Li, fuming: "I don't want to live with you either!"
Chen Long looks at Yu Zichuan and Shang Wuyou, who are in the same room: "You two, who wants to switch with me?"
"Him."
"Him."
Yu Zichuan and Shang Wuyou speak in unison, pointing at each other.
Ji Li, rejected by three people: "..."
Ji Li is too noisy, and no one can stand him except for Si She.
Wanping Princess is not within the scope of this discussion. After all, she has a way to make her husband shut up.
It is at this moment that everyone realizes how stable Si She's emotions are.
They have only traveled with Ji Li for two months, and they are already going crazy from his incessant chatter.
Si She and Ji Li have lived together for so long, and even though they are occasionally affected by Ji Li's bad luck, Si She never loses his temper.
He is truly a very patient snake.
"Um, Ji Li, my house is not far away, as you can see. If you don't mind, you can move to my house. My family is small, and there are many empty rooms."
The speaker is the son of Liu Feng'er and Xu Yan, Xu Shaoxuan.
Everyone looks at him with sympathy.
Young man, you know nothing about Ji Li's bad luck.
Strangely enough, they have traveled with Ji Li for a while, and it seems that nothing bad has happened, as if Ji Li's bad luck has suddenly disappeared.
Could it be that after his grand marriage to the princess, his unlucky fate has been changed?
Chen Long looks at Meng Qianqian without showing any signs.
Only he knows that it is his sister who has suppressed Ji Li's fate.
Although the village in Wushan is not as luxurious as the mansion of the Duke, it is still very large, nestled between the mountains and rivers, with a serene and beautiful environment, filled with birdsong and floral scents, making one feel refreshed and relaxed.
After the others are settled, Liu Feng'er comes to find Meng Qianqian.
Meng Qianqian wanders back and forth in the small garden, looking hesitant.
Liu Feng'er asks: "Xiao Jiu, what are you doing here? Why don't you go inside?"
Meng Qianqian smiles: "I've been sitting in the carriage for a long time, so I'm just taking a walk."
Who knows that she dares not see Lu Yuan's grandmother, feeling guilty.
Liu Feng'er says: "Your aunt is looking for you."
Meng Qianqian blinks: "Me? Now?"
She has eaten her precious grandson clean, is she going to start questioning her? Liu Feng'er speaks gently: "I've been looking for you for a while, go see your aunt soon."
Meng Qianqian sees that even Liu Qingyun is not as nervous, but the grandmother is the kind of person who can chase away even the Majestic King. She is truly afraid that she will also get a beating.
Lu Yuan says that his mother was often beaten when she was young.
"Aunt, can I... wait a bit longer?"
Liu Feng'er takes Meng Qianqian's hand: "Let's go."
Meng Qianqian hugs a tree trunk.
I don't want to—I don't want to—
Meng Qianqian is dragged to Lu Muyan's room.
"Aunt, I've brought the person."
Liu Feng'er puts down Meng Qianqian.
Meng Qianqian is very obedient, like a well-behaved quail.
Liu Muyan and Lu Yuan sit in chairs.
Meng Qianqian quickly glances at them and is completely stunned by their beauty.
She finally understands where Liu Qingyun's beauty comes from.
If Liu Qingyun is a fairy descending to the mortal realm, then Liu Muyan is a beauty of a deity.
The beauty is not in the appearance, but in her aura and divinity.
Meng Qianqian cannot move her gaze.
Lu Yuan clears his throat lightly: "Why don't you go see your grandmother quickly?"
Meng Qianqian performs a junior's greeting: "I have seen my grandmother."
Liu Muyan speaks softly: "Come sit here."
Meng Qianqian walks over without averting her gaze and sits down next to Liu Muyan.
Liu Muyan nods in satisfaction: "Your matters with Ah Yuan, Ah Yuan has already told me about it. I didn't expect you to do so much for him."
Meng Qianqian does not know what Lu Yuan has said to flatter his grandmother, and she humbly says: "It's what I should do, it's what I should do."
Liu Muyan holds Meng Qianqian's hand: "Even while pregnant, you accompanied him back to Miaojiang to visit his family."
Meng Qianqian is suddenly choked up: "What pregnancy?"
