But that day, when he had misunderstood her and Mr. Xiao, his face had been very scary.
She had never seen Lu Fenying like that.
She was worried that he would hurt Mr. Xiao. When Lu Fenying was angry, he didn’t care about anything.
Just like when he was so angry that he killed his mother.
She didn’t know why he wanted to kill his mother, but she vaguely heard his mother mention that Su Muwei’s health wasn’t good and that he had to marry Su Muwei as soon as possible for fear that she would die of illness someday.
Later, Lu Fenying told Mo Qian’er to go make tea. When she returned, she saw Lu Fenying kill the noble and beautiful woman with a knife.
A noble concubine died at her son’s hands.
If Mr. Xiao died because of Mo Qian’er, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life.
Mo Qian’er spent the rest of the day feeling conflicted. Lu Fenying returned just after dinner.
Lu Fenying had bought an eight treasure duck on the street and personally sent it over.
Mo Qian’er was deep in thought, and when Lu Fenying came, she didn’t respond to him much.
Lu Fenying sat for a while before he put the duck in front of her. “Eat it.”
Mo Qian’er looked at him pitifully. “Your Highness, I just had dinner. I’m full.”
“You have to. It’s not for you. It’s for the baby.” Lu Fenying looked at her sharply. He had a feeling that this woman was hiding something from him.
“Oh…” He was finally concerned about the baby?
Since she couldn’t refuse, she could only slowly stuff herself with duck.
Seeing this, Lu Fenying was annoyed. “I bought it. Why didn’t you save some for me?”
“Your Highness, you said that it was for the baby; you never said that you wanted it.” Mo Qian’er felt that this man was being deliberately unreasonable. Exactly what did he want?
“What did you do today?” Lu Fenying changed the topic.
Mo Qian’er’s heart skipped a beat. What did he mean by that? Did he have a spy who knew what happened today?
That was impossible. They were in Prince Zi’s residence, and he couldn’t place his spies here.
Mo Qian’er shook her head. “I didn’t do anything. I just slept. Now that I’m heavier, I sleep more.”
Lu Fenying narrowed his eyes. “You really didn’t do anything?”
Mo Qian’er wasn’t good at lying. She always averted her gaze whenever she lied.
She clearly had a guilty conscience.
Mo Qian’er took a deep breath and looked at him. “Sleeping, eating, and walking around the garden.”
Lu Fenying stretched out his hand. “Come here.”
Mo Qian’er was secretly relieved. She walked over and stood before him. “Your Highness, it’s late. You should go back.”
Lu Fenying said coldly, “Are you chasing me away?”
“No… I’m just a little sleepy. I’ve been feeling sleepy ever since I ate,” said Mo Qian’er softly.
Lu Fenying reached out and pulled her into his arms. He lowered his head and pressed his lips to hers.
Mo Qian’er found it hard to breathe.
After the kiss, he warned her coldly, “Mo Qian’er, you better behave yourself. Don’t think about running away again. I will only tolerate it to this point.”
Mo Qian’er shook her head. “As long as Your Highness doesn’t hurt the baby, I won’t run away.”
She didn’t have the ability to escape with his only child.
If Lu Fenying was interested in the baby, she had nowhere to run.
If she lost the baby, it wouldn’t be just her, but even Prince Zi’s residence would be implicated.
Southern Glory Empire might not be able to defeat Heavenly Wind Empire.
“Remember what you said today. Also, don’t think of doing anything behind my back. If I find out, I won’t let go of anyone who helps you.” Lu Fenying knew Mo Qian’er’s weakness very well.
