Shen Qianshan couldn’t accept what happened in a short time. He didn’t know how to explain to the Empress that she didn’t need to abort the baby. He found she had no idea of the situation, but he didn’t think it was necessary to protect her.
“What do you think?” Shen Qianshan’s eyes became cold. He looked completely different from before and seemed to be more serious.
The Empress didn’t respond. Since they woke up on the same bed, they had been quarreling. They didn’t quarrel for a result but for venting their resentment and complaints about what happened. No one was to blame, so they had to hurt each other.
“It’s a baby. No matter who its father is, you shouldn’t abort it now that you have been pregnant. If you dare to abort it, you will be punished by God.” Shen Qianshan said more seriously than he did in each quarrel before. His voice was calm and extremely firm. It was the first time that he had regarded her as unreasonable. He didn’t have
“Liang, do you know I had a child before? You may not believe it. It belonged to me and Shen Zhongbai.” The Empress looked into the distance firmly and calmly as if she was talking about something irrelevant to her. But Gusu Liang could feel her helplessness and the pain that still haunted her after so many years.Gusu Liang thought it was just the imagination of her lady. As it was said, the Empress seemed to lose her sanity.“It’s impossible. My Lady, you didn’t marry the Third Prince. He married Gu Zhihua, the Third Lady of our family.” Gusu Liang said while cleaning the fragments of the bowl on the ground.The Empress nodded. She seemed to accept it and said, “Fetch me another bowl of medicine that is good for the fetus.”Gusu Liang paused and then looked up to beam at the Empress. Soon, Sun Linhua brought another bowl of medicine. When passing it to the Empress, she looked away unnaturally as if she didn’t want to have eye con
Sun Linhua was familiar with the smile. It was rare to see a smile on Shen Qianshan’s face. He seemed to be smiling, but he was sneering. Perhaps he was considering how to kill her with the knife, wasn’t he?“Yes.” Sun Linhua admitted. She had never tried to shirk the responsibility since the day she took action. She couldn’t accept that Shen Qianshan fell in love with this woman. What was more unacceptable was that this woman was pregnant with his baby. If she couldn’t kill the woman, she was determined to kill her baby.She thought it was worthwhile to kill the baby at the cost of her own life.“Why did you do that?” Shen Qianshan’s voice was as cold as before. He looked Sun Linhua in the eye. His curious eyes repressed his anger. He knew she didn’t have a reasonable explanation. In fact, he was looking for an excuse to kill her immediately.Sun Linhua was anomalously calm with an expressionless face. She simply explained, “She i
It was improper to talk about it in the presence of Shen Zhongbai and Prime Minister Gu, but Ye didn’t care. She couldn’t helplessly watch Gu Zhihua lose her face again in public.Gu Qiang acted as if she didn’t hear what Ye said.As an infanta, she didn’t need to salute the Third Prince. She meant to greet him, but only to find that he rushed over and wanted to hug her like a hungry wolf hunting its prey. His action and expression seemed as affectionate as those of a lover.Gu Qiang dodged and stared at Shen Zhongbai’s face. He winked at her to spare his blushes, but she shook her head because he was insatiable. The Third Prince turned around and told Prime Minister Gu and Ye smilingly, “I will ask my brother to approve my marriage with Qiang right away. Don’t worry.”Prime Minister Gu turned around to look at Gu Zhihua, who huddled behind Ye like an injured animal staring at the Third Prince. What he said was like a
Prime Minister Gu has stood there for a long time, desperately trying to figure out why the Third Prince insisted on marrying Gu Qiang, but he couldn’t find the answer.He could only attribute it to the Third Prince’s love for Gu Qiang.He was once young, so he knew once you loved a person, you would take it seriously.In his eyes, Gu Qiang was mature and quick-witted. She had changed.He didn’t know whether he should be pleased or sad. He was pleased about Gu Qiang’s change. He was satisfied with it. To his sadness, the stronger Gu Qiang was, the weaker he seemed to be.Because he failed to give warmth and a sense of security to Gu Qiang as her father, she became so strong. It was inglorious.Who was willing to admit that he was weak?After returning to the yard, Gusu Liang couldn’t help asking, “My Lady, Gu Zhihua loves Shen Zhongbai deeply. Why do you help her realize her dre
Standing beside Princess Changning, Shen Qianshan stared at Gu Qiang for a while and then rushed to lift her. When Gu Qiang raised her head, he said smilingly, “It’s been a long time… My Qiang.” He whispered the last words to Gu Qiang in a voice that could only be heard by them.Gu Qiang blushed at once. Ignoring how other people reacted, she asked cautiously, “Are you crazy? Your Qiang?” Not caring about what Gu Qiang said, Shen Qianshan put his hand on her shoulder and pushed her like a buddy. Then she was seated on her chair.The whole Gu Family stared at them in astonishment.Did Gu Qiang’s Mr. Rright that she mentioned to Shen Zhongbai refer to Shen Qianshan, the Ninth Duke with a handsome look but no power in his hands?Prime Minister Gu and the Old Lady exchanged glances silently. After sitting down, Princess Changning turned around to look at them and said smilingly, “When did you become so frie
At this moment, someone flew into the room through the window. He wore dustless white clothes and had long black hair. But his sudden appearance was imposing beyond words.As soon as Shen Qianshan landed on the ground, he kicked Shen Zhongbai instantly. Shen Zhongbai lost his footing, and he hadn’t expected that someone would break in and interrupt what he was doing.Dropping heavily on the ground, he looked up at Shen Qianshan with difficulty. Looking pale and having tiny beads of sweat on the forehead, Shen Qianshan rushed to the bed at once. When he looked at the person who was wiggling restlessly on the bed, a chill was sent down his spine. Then he turned around to look at Shen Zhongbai and asked in a horrified tone, “What are you going to do?”Shen Zhongbai was clear about how special today was. However, he attempted to rape Gu Qiang. How cruel it was for her! She was still a virgin. Even though Shen Zhongbai had a noble identity, he could
Gu Zhihua’s eyes were so swollen that she couldn’t see the surroundings clearly. She had to rub them repeatedly, but she kept sobbing.After a long silence, Shen Zhongbai couldn’t help inhaling heavily and appeared impatient. Then he rested against the chair and told Gu Zhihua, “Now you have realized your dream to marry into the Prince’s Mansion. We have a long night. I will have a good talk with you. Firstly, you should be clear about your identity. Don’t you overthink. Don’t have daydreams. Understand?”Gu Zhihua twisted the handkerchief and said, “What are daydreams? Darling, your mind is completely occupied by Gu Qiang, and you ignore my love. We’re both in love. Why do you have to hurt me, darling?”He admitted that she was not ugly. Though not so gorgeous as Gu Qiang, she looked like a pretty girl growing up in south of the Yangtze River. But the appearance was not enough to maintain a marriage for a lifetime, wasn’t it?
“Bring me the most beautiful girls. Otherwise, I will kill you!” He stressed each syllable, and his voice was cold and serious. Though Ms. Hua was experienced, she was frightened. She stepped back and shouted with a fierce look, “Bring Qiangwei here!”Those girls became unhappy immediately. One of them walked over and said, “Boss, Qiangwei doesn’t serve guests, does she?”“Cut the crap! Bring her here! If she doesn’t agree, drag her here by force!” Ms. Hua struggled to free herself, but Shen Zhongbai was grasping her collar. Her face became blue because she was short of breath as if she would be smothered soon.All girls around were scared at this moment. If Shen Qiangwei, the most beautiful prostitute, came out, everything would be doomed. She was so beautiful that Shen Zhongbai would be enchanted by her, and other girls would have no chances.The daydream of ascension to a high rank overnight would be shattered finally.
