Chapter 1191 - Chapter 1191: Riding the Wind and Asking the Moon (276) (2/2)

Hearing Wang Ma’s voice, Zuo Yue hurriedly put away the medicine box in shock. She zipped up her bag and threw it aside.

What she had taken wasn’t medicine. It was a box of folate that the doctor had prescribed for her after she had been diagnosed with pregnancy. It seemed to be a nutrient that had to be supplemented every day in the early stages of pregnancy. She had secretly taken one pill every day when there was no one in the room, but she hadn’t expected Mother Wang to find out today.

“Mother Wang, I’m fine, and my stomach isn’t very uncomfortable. Maybe I drank a lot of wine and ate a lot of meat when I participated in some activities in Boston not long ago, which caused me to feel nauseous when I see these things recently. Don’t worry about me. Just go and accompany them. Don’t worry about me.”Zuo Yue said with a smile.

“How can I not worry?” Wang Ma sighed. Old Master doesn’t need me to serve him. Madam asked me to focus on you recently. Moreover, your complexion has been so bad recently…”

Zuo Yue couldn’t speak with a piece of folate in her mouth, so she took the opportunity to turn around and take a sip of water before smiling at Wang Ma.

Wang Ma felt that her actions were a little strange, but she didn’t expose her disguise. She just smiled at her.”Miss Sun, if you’re not feeling well, you must tell me. You’re so young, so don’t endure everything. No matter what, there are elders to help you weigh it.”

Zuo Yue nodded. She had thrown her bag in the wrong position and it would easily attract Wang Ma’s attention. She only hoped that Wang Ma would go out quickly.

Usually, when Mother Wang said these words, Zuo Yue would be very quiet and not make a sound, as if she did not hear them. But now, she nodded repeatedly and had an unnatural smile on her face. Mother Wang looked at her for a while without batting an eyelid. She did not continue to nag at her and turned to leave.

But after walking out of Zuo Yue’s bedroom, Wang Ma still felt that Zuo Yue was a little strange. If she didn’t tell Madam, what would happen if she delayed something? It was better to go and tell Madam to come and take the note.

Two hours later, it was almost nine o’clock at night. Mother Wang would not come over at this time. Zuo Yue usually took a shower at this time and was ready to go to bed. The sound of water came from the bathroom and the bedroom was very quiet.

There was a knock on the bedroom door, but it wasn’t loud. Xu Yuan knocked a few times from outside before pushing the door open and walking in. She heard the sound of water coming from the bathroom and confirmed that Zuo Yue was taking a shower. She immediately remembered what Wang Ma had said to her before and her eyes searched the room. She saw the bag that was placed safely on the single sofa in the bedroom not far away. Then, she saw a thin coat that was intentionally or unintentionally covered on the bag. Xu Yuan walked over. He picked up his jacket and looked at the bag on the sofa. He opened the zipper of the bag.

Although rummaging through Zuo Yue’s bag wasn’t something that was open and aboveboard, her daughter had been behaving abnormally recently. After hearing what Mother Wang had said today, Xu Yuan was really worried.

Her hand casually rummaged through her bag and suddenly found a pink medicine box. Xu Yuan’s brows paused and she took out the medicine box.

When she saw the name on the medicine box, the doubt in Xu Yuan’s eyes instantly turned into stagnation.

The sound of water running in the bathroom turned off at the same time, and the sound of retching could be heard in the bathroom. Xu Yuan held the medicine box in her hand and turned her eyes abruptly in the direction of the bathroom door.
