Long Yue looked at the man in front of her, gentle as jade, her gaze blurred for a mont, then turned to see her master’s wife Yun Jin standing beside him, with a worried expression.
Ah, they are so good, much happier than ...
Suddenly, Long Yue was startled; did the master and his wife also not have children?
She looked at them in confusion and asked instinctively, "Master, I... my body, can it still bear children?"
She actually didn’t want to ask that; what she wanted to ask was, Master, why don’t you have a child?
But when the words ca out, they had a different aning.
It seems I still want to have a child with that scum, how ridiculous!
He treated like that, and I’m still thinking of him, I’m truly shaless!
A sense of injustice built up in Long Yue’s heart, and tears welled up again.
She rarely cried, and in her previous life, she didn’t even know what crying was; no matter the grievance, she swallowed it all.
In this life, Li Qingmu cherished her so much that her sharp edges were smoothed, making her even experience the soft emotion of crying.
Long Yue let out a light laugh, but it was self-mockery.
Duanmu Nan, seeing her like this, was slightly startled, then sowhat annoyed, "Why did A Mu tell you?"
"Hmm?"
Long Yue was originally in a bad mood, but hearing her master’s words, she was taken aback.
What did Master an by this?
She raised her head, trying hard not to let her tears fall, and mumbled, "Master, what did you just say?"
Duanmu Nan looked down at Long Yue, her large, misty eyes against her delicate face, appearing so pitiful that his heart couldn’t help but be moved.
He sighed and gently comforted her, "Your body suffered extre cold before and needs proper recuperation. As for having a child...don’t think about it for now."
"Master, what are you saying? I... I can’t get pregnant?"
Long Yue was not foolish; she heard the implication in Duanmu Nan’s words and was imdiately shocked, as if pierced by a sharp spike, the pain suffocating her, as if the entire world collapsed.
An endless darkness swept in, and her mind once again grew muddled.
I... I can’t get pregnant? So, it wasn’t A Mu’s problem, the problem lies with ?
Why is it like this? Why does fate have to be so cruel to ?
"Master..."
Long Yue felt all her strength suddenly leave her, collapsing weakly onto the bed.
"Yue’er, don’t be sad; as long as you recover properly, you can conceive."
Duanmu Nan, seeing Long Yue’s dispersed gaze, worried she couldn’t withstand the heavy blow, hurried to comfort her.
But Long Yue rely stared blankly at the beam above, a scene from three years ago erging in her mind,
That year, she was fourteen, in the cold, frigid winter days.
Those were the coldest days of the year; she happened to have her nstruation, and was supposed to be resting in her quarters. But that day, Pang Shuangyue said Pei Jinheng would co to their house, so she was tricked into going out, then, as she passed by the lotus pond, she inexplicably slipped and fell in.
When she was fished out, she was already shivering with cold all over, her stomach aching unbearably, and even though a famous doctor in Capital City was later asked to examine her, every ti she had nstruation, her stomach would faintly ache.
Turns out, the root of the ailnt was ford at that ti.
"Plop!"
A tear the size of a bean slid down from the corner of her eye, and Long Yue painfully closed her eyes.
"Yue’er, please don’t be sad, will you? As long as I’m here, I will definitely heal you!"
A pair of warm big hands pressed on her shoulders, Duanmu Nan looked at her with deep concern.
"Yes, Yue’er, your master’s dical skills are unparalleled in the world; people call him Hua Tuo reincarnated, he’ll definitely heal you, you... you mustn’t cry; being emotionally low is not favorable for recovery, understand?"
Her master and his wife’s comfort slightly improved Long Yue’s mood; she slowly opened her eyes, still misty, but much better.
"Master..." she whispered, "Previously, did A Mu give dicine?"
"That dicine was made by , for him to put in your food or tea every day to nourish your body, why?"
Long Yue blinked in bitterness, so I... misunderstood him?
A deep sense of guilt surged up, and Long Yue couldn’t help but shed tears again. She had previously thought that Li Qingmu had deprived her of the right to motherhood, but in the end, it was herself who deprived him of his right to fatherhood...
I... I still owe him.
Whether in the past life or this one, I owe him, yet he continues to give selflessly...
"Why didn’t he tell ?"
Long Yue suddenly overturned the quilt, furiously got out of bed, startling Duanmu Nan and Yun Jin, who exchanged glances in confusion, unsure what was happening.
"Yue’er, you... what are you saying?"
Yun Jin felt sothing was amiss.
"Master’s wife, he never told any of this; I asked him once why we didn’t have children, and he let it slip himself..."
Her man is very smart, but only when facing enemies, no matter how strong or scary the enemy is, he remains calm and composed.
However, when facing , with just a few words I can extract so information from him.
Casually testing him, he confessed to putting sothing in the food...
This foolish man!
Long Yue wiped her tears and looked at them.
"Yue’er, it’s not that he didn’t tell you; it was I who told him not to. With your fiery temperant, if you knew, what would you have done? I worried about how you would face him, fearing you would do sothing foolish!"
Sothing foolish?
Long Yue was stunned, yes, with her fiery nature... Was Master worried that I would pack a little bag and leave Li Qingmu to avoid burdening him?
No, I wouldn’t!
Previously maybe unsure, but now knowing the truth, how could she not understand Li Qingmu’s mind?
He would never leave or give up on , never!
She jumped out of bed, threw on her clothes, not even wearing shoes, and dashed outside.
"Yue’er, where are you going?"
Yun Jin wanted to chase after her, but Duanmu Nan stopped her, shaking his head, "Don’t chase, she’s gone to find her husband."
...
Long Yue ran out frantically, up ahead, she vaguely saw a figure hurrying towards her.
That figure, she knew it all too well.
Her husband, Li Qingmu!
"Husband..."
Long Yue slowed her pace, standing dazedly there, seeing her, the man took a big step forward and embraced her.
"Yue’er, where did you go, don’t you know, I..."
"Husband... I’m sorry, it was my fault."
Long Yue cut off Li Qingmu’s words, raising her head slowly, her eyes glistening, "Husband, if I can’t have children in this life, will you... will you still want ?"
Li Qingmu was stunned, then lightly laughed, "Yes, in this life, having you is enough!"
