C99 (2/2)

Su Zhi's heart was thumping non-stop as she broke out in a cold sweat for her.

A woman that had been a widow for so many years actually had a child. If anyone knew that she was going to enter the pig cage, they would definitely have committed an unforgivable crime.

”Does he know?”

He Qiniang shook her head again, ”He probably doesn't know. Ever since you broke him last time, he never came to find me again.”

Su Zhi shook her head, feeling that it wasn't worth it.

It was clear that the man wanted to take advantage of her. He lied to her to avoid being caught, so he hid and refused to come out.

Now that he had a child, he was a coward when it came to choosing.

”Then what do you think? Do you want this child? ”

He Qiniang let out a sigh of relief as she sobbed while covering her face.

She had lost more than ten years of her youth, and hoped that her children would be happy with her. Now that she was pregnant with a child, how could she not want to keep it? However, she was a widow.

Seeing her expression, which was filled with pain and depression, Su Zhi helped her up and comforted her, ”Everything depends on your decision. If you don't want to keep this child, I can get you some birth control medicine. However, this is your first child after all. Even if it is for this little life, you should clearly explain it to your child's father. Whether you go or stay, is up to you. ”If he truly loves you and is willing to take great risks to marry you, then this child can legitimately land on the ground. If …”

She did not continue, but the meaning was clear.

His lonely appearance was no longer as gloomy and cold-blooded as before. She twisted her fingers and bit her pale lips, as if he was a lost person who had lost his way.

Su Zhi could not bear it and said, ”Don't worry too much. It's better to go and explain things to him.” If he doesn't want it, then come back and don't let him touch you again in the future. ”

”Alright, I understand.”

She lowered her head and dried her eyes. Her ice-cold hands unconsciously stroked her stomach with a complicated expression on her face.

Only when He Qiniang got off the carriage did the green-robed attendant approach and steered the carriage out of Spring Leaf Alley.

She did not know if that man she had never met would actually want this child. If she was willing to risk her life and marry He Qi Niang, then it would be fine, but if she was spat on by a neighbor, after a long period of time, when she was no longer fresh, she would finally let go of her grudge.

If he did not want to marry, and did not want that poor child, then what awaited He Qiniang Niang would be a shadow for the rest of his life.

Su Zhi sighed faintly. What was there to do? If he had known that he would not be able to control his emotions and desires, why would he have needed to set up that chastity memorial archway?

”Madam, we're almost there.”

After an unknown period of time, the attendant finally reminded him.

Only then did Su Zhi realize that they had arrived in the capital.

She lifted the curtain and saw that the carriage was passing by the general's manor. Suddenly, she thought of Xiao Qian.

They were both widows, and both of them had relationships that couldn't be shamed. However, Xiao Qian had the courage to act recklessly, and more than once asked the matchmaker to hire him.

Thinking of this, Su Zhi finally relaxed her eyebrows and smiled.

The carriage continued to move forward and soon, the area outside was bustling with noise and excitement.

He had arrived at the Prime Minister's Estate.

Su Zhi got off the carriage and saw that there were more than ten carriages parked outside the Liu Manor. There were many guests coming and going, and it was bustling with activity.

There were a group of servants standing outside the door. When they saw the carriage stop, they walked up to it and led it into the mansion.

Only she stood where she was and didn't know where to go. The people around her saw her but most of them didn't know her and didn't want to greet her.

When he looked for the attendant, he found that there was no trace of him.
