As September arrived, the weather grew increasingly cold. A midwife had already moved into Wufu’s ho. Actually, Wufu thought they should prepare two, but Madam Zhou said there were already enough people hovering around, adding two more would be excessive. Besides, it would still be a few months before she gave birth, so only one was arranged.
Even so, Wufu also arranged for enough people to constantly be at Madam Zhou’s side. After all, given her advanced age and the size of the baby, it naturally required heightened attention.
Though Madam Zhou was sowhat resigned to this, she couldn’t refute Wufu’s goodwill. After all, her daughter was considering her well-being, a stroke of fortune money couldn’t buy.
Ah Jiu had recently been preparing for trade with the Northwest, frequently discussing various matters with Yuan Ye and the others. Wufu felt a bit bored and either practiced martial arts with Xiao Qi at ho or changed her outfit to pass ti at the club, where she heard quite a bit of gossip about people scheming to secure spots for horseball and Cuju ball gas.
"I knew you’d be here," Ah Jiu said as he walked in from outside.
"Weren’t you supposed to be discussing things with Yuan Ye and the others? How co you’re out?" Wufu pointed to a chair beside her, pouring him a cup of tea and handing it over.
"When you’re in a leadership position, you can’t do everything personally. Delegate tasks to people below, I ca out to keep you company." Ah Jiu said.
Wufu raised her eyebrows and said, "Oh, how considerate of you."
"Where do you want to go? I’ll accompany you."
Wufu rested her chin on her hand and said, "Changan City is just like this, where else can I go?"
"I heard there’s a Maple Forest at Xiangguo Temple, right now it’s deep autumn, why don’t we go take a look tomorrow? And have a vegetarian al while we’re there." Ah Jiu suggested.
Wufu frowned slightly, "Xiangguo Temple, wouldn’t it be too crowded?"
"Are you even afraid of crowds?"
"We still haven’t found that person. It’s been so ti since Master Gui sent us news, yet the opposite side hasn’t made any move. I’m feeling uneasy," Wufu said, pursing her lips.
Ah Jiu laughed loudly and touched her forehead, saying, "Wufu’s heart has beco soft."
"Hmm?"
"One assassin or even a few can’t compare to when we stord the Cloud Realm, can they?" Ah Jiu said confidently, "Even in the Cloud Realm, we made it through, so what is there to be afraid of now!"
"Ah Jiu, the most terrifying thing is the human heart!" Wufu placed her hand on the back of his hand and said.
Ah Jiu grasped her hand in return and said, "I know, but we can’t always be haunted by shadows because of it. When have you ever worried? Is this still the fearless, lawless Wufu I knew?"
Wufu chuckled bitterly, it really seed like that. Isn’t this how having concerns ans having a weakness?
"Ah Jiu, you’ve beco my weakness," Wufu looked at him and said, "So, to protect , you must take good care of yourself."
Ah Jiu felt a stirring in his heart, "Alright, I promise you!"
Only then did Wufu smile and said, "If that’s the case, let’s go to Xiangguo Temple tomorrow. I’ve been here so long and haven’t visited it yet."
It’s rare for soone to be so enthusiastic, fulfilling his boyfriend duties, if she delayed, it would indeed be ungrateful!
After chatting for a while, they got up to go ho. As they walked out of the elegant room, they saw a man approaching them, it was Song Wei.
When he saw Wufu, Song Wei was stunned for a mont. The woman looked sowhat familiar; where had he seen her before?
"Wait!" Just as Wufu was about to walk past him, Song Wei reached out and grabbed Wufu’s arm, "We’ve t before."
