I stared at Mai Qiâs lonely face.
She smiled self-deprecatingly. âI know sheâs well-protected, and I know she must be in a bad mood. After all, sheâs under house arrest. My dad doesnât really care about her. In his heart, he only cares about national affairs. My brother⦠Even if itâs for my sake, heâll still treat her well. But they all know very well that they canât let her out. If they let her out, sheâll be a flirtatious woman. If they let her out, sheâll bring disaster to the country and the people!â
I laughed. âMai Qi, who would say that about their own mother? But it sounds like your mother is really amazing!â I gave her a thumbs up.
Mai Qi smiled bitterly. âHavenât you seen her before? She⦠Sigh!â
I was speechless.
Mai Qi said softly, âNanxing, I miss her a little.â
I pulled her hand. âWhy donât you go back and see her?â
Which child didnât miss their mother?
Mai Qi shook her head slowly. âForget it. I also think that what my father and my brother did was right. Itâs the best arrangement for my mother.â
I didnât know what to say at the moment. I was thinking of telling Jing Ni to mention it to Qu Hao.
âWhy didnât Jing Ni come with you?â I changed the topic.
Mai Qi was a little absent-minded. âShe was called away by my brother.â
I shook her hand. âMai Qi, if you really canât let go of your mother, why donât you go back and see her? Your brother wonât stop you. Itâs better than you suppressing yourself like this.â
Mai Qi didnât say anything until she walked into our yard. She slowly said, âIâm dumb. After what she did to me, I actually miss her! Itâs all because of this Lin Hua. Why bring this up?â
He had ulterior motives!
But I didnât say it out loud.
Mai Qi changed the topic. âI went to find Tong Yan. I asked her to help me research something. Iâll go and see if itâs done!â
I narrowed my eyes and looked at her with a fake smile. âCould it be that youâre asking her to make some aphrodisiac for my little uncle?â
Mai Qi nudged me. âIâll ask Tong Yan to prepare something for Jing Tian!â
Looking at Mai Qiâs back, I couldnât help but sigh. Miss Angel, who claimed to be a princess, had a high status and was unexcelled in the world. In fact, her family background was nothing in front of Mai Qi.
Mai Qi was a real princess, but she was also a clear-headed person.
I returned to the bedroom to take a shower and threw myself onto the bed. After lying on my stomach for a while, I turned over and placed my hand on my lower abdomen. I couldnât help but sigh.
As expected, being pregnant was a tiring task. I was especially tired today, and I was so tired that I couldnât open my eyes at this moment.
After I fell into a deep sleep, my mind was filled with bizarre dreams. There were scenes that I had experienced in the past, as well as scenes that were surreal and futuristic. I couldnât stop dreaming.
I didnât know how much time had passed, but I felt something heavy beside me. Someone sat down.
I was startled and wanted to get up instinctively, but I smelled a familiar warm scent. It was Jing Tian.
I didnât open my eyes. âWhy are you here?â I muttered
Jing Tian reached out his hand and pulled me into his embrace. His pajamas felt so comfortable. I wrapped myself around him like an octopus. I found a comfortable position in his embrace and rubbed my face against his chest.
Jing Tian adjusted his position in accordance with me. He kissed my lips gently one after another.
There was a hint of a smile in his voice. âMy mother kicked me out and sent all my belongings to your place. If you donât take me in, Iâll be homeless.â
