Chapter 255

Xie Wan Ning in the backyard knew nothing about all this. She moved a soft chair and sat under the eaves, needle and thread in her hands, embroidering a child's coat.

Ji Chengfeng sat opposite her. After she had embroidered more than ten stitches in a row, he called her and reminded her in a gentle voice to pay attention to her eyes.

In this regard, Xie Wanning expressed helplessness.

After this period of time, she no longer felt unfamiliar at the beginning. After being reminded by him for the third time, Xie Wan Ning said, "You are the chief officer of a continent, how come you are so free?"

Watching the woman doing needlework all day long, why not do something else with that time?
Ji Chengfeng smiled when he heard this, "You are about to give birth, and Brother Xie is very busy, so I naturally have to pay more attention to you."

What a reasonable statement.

Xie Wan Ning was speechless for a moment.

She put down her needlework, reached out to pour a cup of tea for the person opposite her, and said unhappily, "It's hard for you to say so much. Here, have a cup of tea to moisten your throat."

Ji Chengfeng smiled again, picked up the tea, took a sip slowly, and was about to speak, but as if he felt something, he tilted his head slightly and his eyes paused.

Xie Wan Ning noticed it and looked in the direction he was looking.

A familiar figure stood under the paulownia tree without knowing when, with yellow paulownia leaves under his feet and a gloomy sky as the background, and he was looking at this side intently.

They were too far away for Xie Wan Ning to see the look in his eyes, but her heart couldn't help but beat violently.

Somehow, at this moment, she thought of their first meeting.

On Suzaku Street, he was dressed in a green robe, looking handsome and clean as jade. Just standing there was enough to attract everyone's attention.

And now, his appearance is still peerless, as graceful and elegant as when we first met. It seems that nothing has changed, but his whole body has blended into the bleak autumn colors.

Dull, dull, and seemingly losing all color.

Feeling a dull pain in her chest, Xie Wan Ning subconsciously stood up. As she stood up, her bulging belly was no longer covered. Pei Yuqing's pupils shrank suddenly, and her body swayed slightly, almost losing her balance.

Xie Yanyu, who was standing by, helped him up and said in a low voice, "Wanwan is about to give birth. It's a foregone conclusion and it can't be changed. Changqing, remember, don't provoke her."

As they were talking, the girl over there moved and walked towards this side.

Ji Chengfeng frowned slightly and reached out to support her elbow, but felt that this was inappropriate, so he called the maid beside him.

However, after a few moments of hesitation, Pei Yuqing had already arrived.

He looked at the girl in front of him who was wearing a plain dress and had a bulging belly, and his eyes gradually turned red.

"Evening..."

Xie Wan Ning lowered her head, holding her stomach with both hands, and did not dare to look at him out of shame.

When she heard him calling her, her eyelashes trembled slightly and she whispered, "...I'm sorry."

She had thought many times about what they would be like to each other if she met Pei Yuqing again.

But she never thought that he would come all the way to find her, and that she was pregnant with another man's blood and was about to give birth.

Really, the feelings of guilt and self-blame almost destroyed her.

The humiliation and harm she brought to him and the Duke of Pei's Mansion were enough to atone for her sin with death.

What's a sorry?

But as soon as she said this, the tall young man could no longer hold back, his lips trembled violently, "Don't say such things."

He reached out and held her shoulders, looking her up and down, and said in a trembling voice, "It was so thrilling on the boat that night, Wanwan, were you hurt?"
