When Liu Lang ca ho and heard that Xiao Wan was expecting, he felt both happy and unhappy.
To be honest, he felt more unhappy than happy.
Mrs. Chen forbade him from going to Xiao Wan’s room anymore, saying the first three months were critical. Even though Liu Lang blushed and promised not to touch Xiao Wan, Mrs. Chen still refused, fearing his youth might betray him.
That evening, Liu Lang entered Hui Niang’s room disheartened.
As they lay on the bed, Hui Niang waited for a long ti, but Liu Lang just lay there motionless. Unable to hold back, she reached out her arm.
Liu Lang forcefully pushed her arm away, impatiently saying, "It’s too hot, sleep!"
In the sweltering heat of sumr, it was as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over Hui Niang’s head down to her feet.
Liu Lang despised her!
Liu Lang no longer wanted to touch her!
She knew her body didn’t quite resemble a woman’s.
She had never thought about this issue before, until one ti she helped her mother bathe and discovered that her mother was quite different from her—her mother’s figure was fuller, and certain parts were not as pronounced as hers.
She felt a bit perplexed at the ti. Later, while her younger sister was bathing, she used the excuse of bringing her a cloth to sneak a peek, and found her sister resembled their mother, which ant she was the odd one out among won.
On the wedding night, she was anxious.
Liu Lang also seed unsure of what a woman’s body should be like, but he was evidently surprised by hers. In the end, they hastily finished the affair.
Now, with Xiao Wan in the picture, he completely despised her.
Hui Niang closed her eyes and wept silently.
Her affection for Liu Lang now transford into resentnt toward Xiao Wan.
If it weren’t for her, Liu Lang wouldn’t despise her!
Hui Niang stuffed a cloth into her mouth, fearing her cries would escape from her lips.
She cried for who knows how long, and suddenly wiped her tears away.
At the sa ti, she secretly made an important decision in her heart.
······
Early in the morning, Liu Lang had breakfast and then went to talk to Xiao Wan.
Xiao Wan was having breakfast alone in her room.
Liu Lang looked over and saw Xiao Wan’s breakfast was a bowl of fresh at wontons with so green vegetable leaves.
He gently said, "Is there anything else you’d like to eat? I can buy it for you."
Xiao Wan shook her head, "No need, Sister Hui Niang treats very well. I’m using the best of everything now."
Liu Lang sat beside Xiao Wan and quietly asked, "Not spending the night with you, do you feel—"
Before finishing his sentence, he heard Hui Niang’s voice from behind, "Xiao Wan, the goat milk has arrived!"
Liu Lang turned around and saw Hui Niang coming over with a cup of goat milk, placing it on Xiao Wan’s table.
Xiao Wan quickly stood up, hastily saluting Hui Niang.
Liu Lang frowned slightly, "Isn’t Zhu Er around? Why do you have to do this?"
Hui Niang smiled, "It’s fine. I have nothing else to do, as long as Xiao Wan is well served."
Xiao Wan was extrely uneasy upon hearing this.
Hui Niang stared at Xiao Wan, "Hurry and drink, drink while it’s hot."
Xiao Wan hadn’t swallowed the wonton in her mouth yet, so she forced it down before picking up the goat milk.
Hui Niang kept urging her, "Drink, drink quickly!"
Xiao Wan, despite the goat milk still being sowhat hot, drank it all in one go as if taking dicine.
Hui Niang took the cup and pointed at the wontons on the table, "And finish these off, make sure not to leave any."
Liu Lang furrowed his brow, sensing sothing amiss, but upon further reflection, couldn’t pinpoint anything wrong. Wasn’t Hui Niang just being considerate of Xiao Wan?
Xiao Wan gulped down too quickly and started hiccuping. Liu Lang reached out to pat her back.
Xiao Wan, slightly panicked, glanced at Hui Niang who hadn’t left yet and quickly moved away from Liu Lang’s hand.
