Chapter: 159 out of 513 – News that arrived without warning (2)
Two days later, the rumors had subsided . The heir and his wife weren’t getting a divorce . Luo Qianqian had also finished packing up to travel to Prince Huainan’s fiefdom with Zhao Kaifeng .
Sir Luo and Prince Huainan had personally come over Marquis Moyu’s residence to bring gifts to express their thanks, and Ji Man had received a small fortune for her work .
This was a load off old madame’s mind . Right now, she was just thinking about how to deal with Wen Wan . Her son had clearly shown he would keep protecting Wen Wan . If even the emperor hadn’t been able to do anything to her, then other people naturally wouldn’t be able to either . However, as long as old madame was alive, Wen Wan’s life naturally wouldn’t be good either .
Lately, Nie Sangyu’s body had felt somewhat uncomfortable . Ji Man frequently felt sleepy, but when she had Doctor Li examine her, he only said her tiredness was from fatigue .
Could it be that this body was the rumored type that would feel tired all year round for various reasons? Ji Man yawned, leaned back against the cus.h.i.+oned couch, closed her eyes, and took a short nap .
Seeing that Nie Sangyu had fallen asleep, Muxu quietly closed the doors from the outside . She looked at Gancao and Dengxin and said, “Watch over our master . I’ll go to the kitchen to get afternoon snacks for her . ”
After Gancao and Dengxin made sounds of agreement, Muxu lifted her skirt and left Feiwan Courtyard .

Nie Sangyu appeared in Ji Man’s dream . She wasn’t crying anymore and her expression looked rather happy . “You’re amazing . ”
“Not amazing as you . ” Ji Man twitched her lips . “When are you going to let me go back?”
Nie Sangyu giggled . “Don’t be in such a rush . I came here to tell you to be careful with your stomach . ”
Stomach? Ji Man lowered her head to look at it in confusion . “What wrong with my stomach . ”
Ji Man felt as if Nie Sangyu had thrown a tremendous bomb when she heard, “You’re almost three months pregnant . Don’t be deceived by other people . ”
Shocked, Ji Man woke up from her nap and almost fell off the couch .
“Master?” Hearing a sound from inside, Gancao pushed opened the doors, entered the room, and gave her a handkerchief . “Master, did you have a nightmare?”
Ji Man was at a loss for a while . She absent-mindedly took the handkerchief from Gancao, wiped her face, shook her head, and said, “It’s nothing . Where’s Muxu?”

“Older sister Muxu went to the kitchen to get some snacks for you,” Dengxin said .
Ji Man pursed her lips . Thinking of Nie Sangyu’s words, her sense of vigilance went up .
She was pregnant? If she had been pregnant for almost three months, then the baby must have been conceived during the Southern Trip . But, hadn’t she asked a doctor to check her body several times, and he had said everything was fine?
But, when she carefully thought about it, she realized that the doctor that had examined her was always Doctor Li . The young doctor that had helped her p.a.w.n off her jewelry when she had first come here was now a doctor that had some status in this residence . Since he had a good relations.h.i.+p with Muxu, she thought there was no reason for her to ask for another doctor . During the last check up, Doctor Li had even said her belly was just bloated .
It seemed that she encountered something interesting . Without changing her expression, Ji Man lied back down on the cus.h.i.+oned couch . She closed her eyes and sighed . Last time, she had thought that she would be considered lucky if Muxu didn’t betray her again . It seemed that she didn’t have that fortune .
