Chapter 767 - Death In the Womb (1/2)
Mo Qian’er’s face turned pale, and she asked nervously, “Is there something wrong with my body, Mr. Xiao?”
Xiao Xiao looked at her with mixed feelings. He didn’t know what to feel.
“Answer my question first. How are you feeling these days?” Xiao Xiao softened his voice, afraid that he would scare her again.
“I just feel bloated. It doesn’t hurt, but it’s a little uncomfortable. Nothing else.”
The doctor said that her body was injured and that the baby had been affected. It wasn’t a big deal. He only told her to rest more.
But why did Mr. Xiao’s expression look so terrible?
On second thought, she wondered why her master and the crown prince insisted that Mr. Xiao examine her when she was fine.
The crown prince even allowed her to be alone with Mr. Xiao.
He had asked her to swear not to see Mr. Xiao before.
Thinking this, Mo Qian’er’s hands became sweaty. She was scared… scared that something had happened to the baby.
“Is something wrong with the baby?!” Mo Qian’er grabbed his sleeve and asked, trembling.
Xiao Xiao looked at her. She was so weak that a gust of wind would blow her over.
“I need to touch the stomach,” Xiao Xiao said with difficulty. He was already eighty to ninety percent sure, but he still wanted to confirm it one last time.
Mo Qian’er frowned at him. “Why… Why…”
“Don’t worry. Lie down first. I’ll get some medicine.” Xiao Xiao helped her lie down and left the room.
He raised his head and looked at the clouds in the sky. The air was frighteningly cold. It would probably snow soon.
As he hurried to the pink cottage, snowflakes started to fall.
Xiao Xiao wrapped his cloak more tightly around him. He had never felt so cold in winter before.
