1757: Pained And Angered

Pained And Angered

Even though Long Yin and the others were a little worried to see Ji'er this way, they still listened to Lu Liangwei and returned to the dining hall.1

Lu Liangwei and Lil Qi helped Ji'er back to Auspicious Palace.

When she found out that Ji'er would be returning, Lu Liangwei had gotten the servants to clean up Auspicious Palace a few days ago.

She immediately ordered the servants to get hot water when they arrived at the palace.

Lu Liangwei helped Ji'er wipe her face after squeezing a wet towel.

Ji'er leaned against the pillar of the bed and looked weak as she had just thrown up.

She immediately felt a little nervous when she saw how grim her mother looked. Her mother had checked her pulse just now and must now know that she was pregnant.

Ji'er hesitated before calling out, "Mother…"

Lu Liangwei darted her a look and said nothing. She wiped Ji'er's face and turned to get some tea when Chu Qi appeared with a cup.

She glanced at Chu Qi at this point and took the cup from him to feed Ji'er the drink.

Once Ji'er had finished the tea, Chu Qi finally asked, "Your Highness, what's wrong with Ji'er? Is there anything wrong with her health?" 

Since changing to a more comfortable horse-drawn carriage after leaving the small town, Ji'er had stopped throwing up and he did not think much about it.

However, Ji'er had suddenly begun throwing up again just now.

After she was done, she looked like the wind had beaten out of her and was absolutely listless. This made him realize that something was wrong.

He clenched his fingers nervously as he waited for Lu Liangwei's answer.

When Lu Liangwei saw him this way, she knew that he had no idea of Ji'er's condition and could not help having mixed feelings over this.

She was initially very unhappy with Chu Qi after checking Ji'er's pulse and realizing she was more than two months pregnant, but when she saw him this way, she could no longer spout any angry words at him.

Lu Liangwei sighed and waved off the servants before saying, "There is nothing wrong with Ji'er's health, but she is now more than two months pregnant."

Chu Qi stood there looking stunned when he heard this.

It did not occur to him that Ji'er was pregnant when she was throwing up before, but when he saw her throw up again, he had a vague guess about it but was not entirely sure.

 After he had heard Lu Laingwei's diagnosis, he was not able to react to it.

Ji'er was actually more than two months pregnant and he had no idea.

When Ji'er saw his reaction, she bit her lip and felt troubled.

She had not said anything to Chu Qi about her pregnancy.

It was initially because her mind and emotions were in a mess and when her morning sickness died down, she eventually forgot about it.

Lu Liangwei had no idea what to say when she saw their reactions.

"Both of you, you're really… Sigh!" She sighed.

"Mother, this is all my fault. Please don't be mad at Lil' Qi…" Ji'er immediately said. After all, both of them had secretly gotten married without telling anyone. Now that she was pregnant, her mother would blame Lil Qi for this.

However, Ji'er was the one who had taken the initiative for this.

Seeing her this way angered and pained Lu Liangwei.

This silly girl!

Even though Lil Qi had sacrificed a lot for Ji'er, and Long Yang and she had agreed to their marriage, they had consummated before their wedding and Ji'er was now pregnant. Lu Liangwei was not happy about this and could not accept the situation at that moment.

However, no matter how many angry words she had for them, she was unable to utter those words when faced with them both.

Even though she could not utter those angry words to them, she was still unhappy about it.

Lu Liangwei sat there without saying anything and there was a huge frown on her face.

Ji'er got even more nervous when she saw Lu Liangwei staying silent.
