Rebirth: My Healer Wife Owns Superpowers Chapter 492

Chapter 492: Chapter 493 “Danger is coming…

Qi Yue, concerned about the items they had salvaged, woke up after a short rest.

When she arrived at the beach before the last darkness of dawn, Qingzhu and the others were already waiting.

“You finished so quickly?”

Qingzhu stepped forward to explain, “My lord, it's time for the Frogman to head back.”

“Oh, quite cautious, aren't they?” Qi Yue understood, “Before the Frogman left, did you manage to perform deep control?”

“Don't worry, my lord, I have followed the procedure.”

“That's good.” Qi Yue nodded and was about to collect the speedboat into her space when she saw it was completely empty.

“Where is the stuff, the white substance, where did it go?”

Qingzhu stole a glance at Zhao Xiyan and stepped forward to explain, “My lord, here's the thing, the Marquis said this object is quite interesting and decided to let the brothers study it so we can fight fire with fire. Therefore, they took it back to the black market.”

“Study it, what are you planning to do?” Qi Yue turned to look at Zhao Xiyan, only to see his face was stern, seemingly very unhappy.

“Yueyue, this thing isn't easy to extract, now that it's ours, we should make the most of it!! Better you don't look at it, lest there's some kind of radiation or something, wouldn't that be harmful to our child?!”

Hearing this, Qi Yue couldn't help but chuckle.

She really had rubbed off on him, he even knew about radiation?

He must have secretly read through all the childcare books in her space?!

Indeed, given her current condition, she should stay away from such indefinable substances.

Who knows if the white material surrounding the Sodium Element had radiation?

She should prioritize the child first.

Upon this thought, Qi Yue nodded repeatedly.

“The husband is thoughtful as always, then let them study it. I'll find some relevant books for them later on.”

Zhao Xiyan gave a faint smile.

“It's good that Yueyue is obedient.”

Qingzhu standing aside had already widened his eyes in shock.

Qi Yue was pregnant?!

This must be the most important reason the Marquis insisted on sending Qi Yue away!

So, his plan to tell Qi Yue the truth should also be carefully considered now–

He couldn't help but cast his eyes upon her trembling slender waist.

“Swoosh!”

A gust of wind came by, and the rock beneath them cracked with a “crack”.

Zhao Xiyan's voice, cold as ice, resounded.

“What are you looking at?”

Qingzhu was startled, immediately meeting a pair of abyss-like piercing eyes!

His heart trembled, and he promptly bowed in respect.

“Marquis, your subordinate is joyful for the lord and the Marquis. Congratulations on the joy of the unicorn child.”

“Hmph.” Zhao Xiyan snorted coldly, his face still showing a chill, seemingly not pleased by the remark.

Qi Yue thought he was unhappy because Qingzhu glanced at her abdomen, and immediately stepped forward to persuade.

“Alright, Xiyan. It's too dark to see anything, let's not make a fuss about nothing.”

With that, she quickly put away the speedboat.

“Alright, let's go, it's about to get light.”

Zhao Xiyan snorted again, his sharp gaze still fixed on Qingzhu.

“Take your punishment; if there's a next time, I won't let it slide!”

“Yes, Marquis!”

In the dim light of dawn, Qi Yue saw that Qingzhu's forehead was covered with cold sweat and couldn't help but speak up.

“Alright, no need for punishment, there is a pile of things waiting for him to handle!”

But Qingzhu bowed deeply.

“Qingzhu thanks the mistress for her concern. Mistakes merit punishment, your subordinate will take care of things.”

Qi Yue really wanted to scold him for being a fool, but seeing Zhao Xiyan's unpleasant expression, she kept her mouth shut.

In fact, her worries were nowhere near the reason for punishment that Qingzhu had mentioned.

Qingzhu had intended to use the opportunity of reporting to expose some anomalies to Qi Yue, but Zhao Xiyan reacted even faster, brushing the issues aside in a few sentences.

And there it was, with Zhao Xiyan's temperament, he had an outburst on the spot.

“Ah…”

Watching Zhao Xiyan helping Qi Yue into the carriage, he hurried forward to follow by their side.

Only he knew that Zhao Xiyan's warning was merely covert, and there was more to come once they returned.

“I didn't even know that my lord was pregnant!” he grumbled to himself, “Isn't my concern simply because the matter cannot be resolved?”

While this was what he said, Qingzhu was somewhat frightened.

If they really had left Qi Yue behind and she had encountered any danger, and if the Marquis's child had been harmed, he couldn't make amends even if he died a hundred times.

After all, the Marquis was already of such an age; others of his age already had sons at least five or six years old.

Lost in such thoughts, he quickly returned to the inn.

Seeing Zhao Xiyan assisting Qi Yue to the main room, Qingzhu wisely stood under the peach tree in the courtyard, motionless, letting the torrential rain pour over him.

After about half a shichen, Zhao Xiyan finally came out.

Under the black umbrella, the jade-like immortal figure was dazzlingly eye-catching.

“Do you realize your mistake?”

Qingzhu hung his head in the pouring rain, “This subordinate realizes his mistake, I will never dare to do it again!”

Zhao Xiyan snorted coldly, his tone gradually softening.

“Seeing as there were no complications this time, I will let you off–Hei Lie will bring you clothes and medicine. You've had a hard night, take a rest today.”

“Yes, Marquis!”

Qingzhu's voice trembled involuntarily, and his face burned hot, unsure whether it was from the rain or from tears.

That night, Qi Yue was still thinking about going to the beach to set the speedboat free, thus she hadn't slept at all.

Little did she expect Zhao Xiyan to come and say that Qingzhu and the Black Feather Guard had found a small boat, and she no longer needed to bus herself with it.

“Yueyue, Yunzhu has already arrived, and Huang Zai'an will be here by tomorrow morning. After that, you can leave!”

“So soon?!”

Qi Yue was somewhat surprised, feeling that something was not quite right.

“Not soon at all, it's already been three days,” Zhao Xiyan said decisively, but the tenderness in his eyes could not be concealed.

Qi Yue's heart stirred at that.

And she didn't know why.

Thinking of parting with Zhao Xiyan for a while, she found it hard to let go.

Previously, when she was going to Western Chu, she had left without hesitation!

“Didn't you say you wanted me to stay an extra day?”

She wrapped her arms around Zhao Xiyan's, a pair of seductive eyes smiling up at him.

“Husband~ don't you really wish for me to stay one more day?”

“Yueyue…”

Zhao Xiyan looked down at her, his pink lips pursing, causing his adam's apple to slide up and down like lightning.

“Husband, I can't bear to leave you…”

“Yueyue, do you not realize how dangerous it is for you right now…”

The man's voice contained a bit of huskiness, his profound phoenix eyes narrowing, hiding his restrained desire.

“Where is the danger? I'm not aware of it?” Qi Yue teased with a laugh, poking playfully at the man's waist with her slender fingers, clearly flirting with fire.

“Danger has arrived…” Zhao Xiyan suddenly widened his phoenix eyes, gave a bewitchingly smile, and bowed his head to capture her lips.

“Mmm mmm…”

Now Qi Yue had really gotten burned by playing with fire.

Luckily, she had always been in good health, and the child in her womb was growing well, with all indicators exceptionally positive.

With three months almost up, there wasn't much to worry about, so she let the man proceed with his mischief.
