115. We Will Keep This Baby

"I am pregnant?" Mo Yanzhi still could not believe it.

Shen Fangde was sweating coldly and nodded. "Yes, your pulse indicated that you are forty days pregnant."

"Forty days…" Mo Yanzhi was shocked again, and then his expression suddenly became extremely gloomy. At this time, he had taken off his mask and turned back to the emperor. At this time, his serious facial expression made Shen Fangde feel terrified.

The next moment, Shen Fangde's fear became reality because his neck was being choked.

"How many days did you say?" Mo Yanzhi's voice was cold as if it had come from hell.

It was only forty days. He didn't know what went wrong.

As Shen Fangde was about to be out of breath, Han Tingxuan finally came back to his senses. Judging from Mo Yanzhi's angry expression, he knew that something was wrong.

What's more, he did not believe that Mo Yanzhi would have an affair with someone other than him.

Thus, Han Tingxuan said softly, "Your Majesty, let go of Doctor Shen and let him talk."

Mo Yanzhi's body stiffened when he heard this. Only then did he let go of Shen Fangde, but he didn't look at Shen Fangde. Instead, he stared at Han Tingxuan. "Hubby, I didn't. Believe me, I..."

"Shh," Han Tingxuan pointed at Mo Yuanzhi's lips. "There's someone outside. Don't get excited."

Mo Yanzhi took a deep breath and calmed down.

Han Tingxuan patted Shen Fangde's back. "Doctor Shen, are you alright?"

Shen Fangde hurriedly shook his head. Although his face was still purple, he immediately said, "I am fine. I am fine."

Mo Yanzhi looked at him coldly, "Answer me once again, Am I pregnant?"

Shen Fangde nodded with a bitter smile. "Yes, I don’t dare lie."

Mo Yanzhi's lips tightly pursed. "How many days has it been?"

Shen Fangde lowered his head and kowtowed. "Forty days, for sure."

When Mo Yanzhi was about to explode again, Han Tingxuan picked up Shen Fangde. "Doctor Shen, the Emperor is having a little cold. He is not feeling very well. You’d better prescribe some medicine for his recovery. However, it is for the best that he will stay here for a rest tonight in case that he would catch another cold at night. You are dismissed.”

Shen Fangde immediately got the hint. He cupped his hands together and bowed to Han Tingxuan gratefully. Then he excused himself out.

This time, Mo Yanzhi did not stop him.

After Shen Fangde left, Han Tingxuan held Mo Yan's hand. "Don't think about anything. I'll go out and send Tian Yushu away first. I'll be back with you soon."

"Hubby," Mo Yanzhi muttered as he instinctively grabbed Han Tingxuan's hand, not wanting to let go.

Han Tingxuan comforted him. "I believe you. There must be some other reason. Think about it yourself.”

Mo Yanzhi paused for a moment before Han Tingxuan leaned over and gently kissed him on his lips.

"Wait for me, huh?"

Mo Yanzhi finally nodded, feeling much better. "Okay."

After Han Tingxuan left, Mo Yanzhi couldn't help but touch his stomach.

A baby. Could he have his child?

When he had given up, despaired, and even had no hope, he suddenly have a child of his own.

Is that possible? Is there a small life here? A child that his and her husband had?

Thinking about Han Tingxuan, Mo Yanzhi became worried again.

He guaranteed in his life that his husband was the only father of his baby.

In this world, besides his husband, how could he allow others to touch him? But could his husband believe him?

Since he was living separately in the palace, would his husband think he had changed? Could it be…

If his husband was just comforting him, would Han Tingxuan not want him?

Thinking of this possibility, Mo Yanzhi felt so sad.

On the other side, Han Tingxuan sent Tian Yushu away very quickly and even told Han to sleep. He even told Han not to get close to them at night in case he would do anything inappropriate to offend the emperor. Han Tingxuan rushed to Mo Yanzhi right after.

To his surprise, he saw his male wife looking very serious, sad, and harsh in his eyes too.

Han Tingxuan was startled and quickly took a few steps forward. He ran to the bed and sat down. "Yanzhi, what's wrong? "

Mo Yanzhi stared at Han Tingxuan, his lips trembling and he uttered a few words. "Hubby, do you believe me?"

Han Tingxuan's heart ached because of Mo Yanzhi's expression. He hurriedly stepped forward and hugged him in his arms.

"What's wrong with you? I told you to believe me. Are you doubting me or yourself? Are you making me angry?”

"No, no." Mo Yanzhi panicked.

Han Tingxuan sighed. "Yanzhi, you have to know that we are a couple. Who else can I believe other than you? My Yanzhi is such a powerful Kungfu master. I don’t believe that anyone else can get this close to you.”

Han Tingxuan pinched Mo Yuanzhi's nose.

Feeling the intimacy and the warmth of being held in Han Tingxuan’s arms, Mo Yanzhi relaxed a little and said. "But...but we haven't been done it for two months. Why…"

Han Tingxuan frowned. "I'm also puzzled. Yanzhi, think it harder. The last time we did was in the village outside the City of Jade, right? It has indeed been more than two months since then. Did you feel anything back then?”

Mo Yanzhi paused for a moment and suddenly thought of something. But he was not sure.

Han Tingxuan had been observing his expression and immediately asked, "Is there anything you can recall? Tell me.”

Mo Yanzhi looked at Han Tingxuan. "I… I am not sure. Actually, after the miscarriage, Master Shifu used a lot of good medicine to take care of my health. But sometimes, I still felt a little pain in my stomach. I also asked Master Shifu about it, but he told me that it would take time to fully recover. And he told me to pay extra attention to it.”

Han Tingxuan's expression changed slightly. "You never told me!"

Mo Yanzhi said, "I, I don't want you to worry."

"You…" Han Tingxuan was angry and touched, but more guilty. "You, you know how to drive me crazy!"

"Sorry, I…" Mo Yanzhi apologized.

Han Tingxuan sighed. "Forget it. Let's not mention this first. Go ahead."

Mo Yanzhi pursed his lips and said softly, "When we were at the bottom of the mountain, do you remember that I asked you if you would feel warm and comfortable after eating the fruits? But you said no.”

It took Han Tingxuan a short second to remember this.

"I do. What's wrong?"

"At the time, I liked eating those fruits, not just because they tasted so good, but mainly because I felt warm in my stomach after eating them. The occasional pain that appeared in the past never appeared again. So I ate a lot. Especially those darker fruits that we picked later made me feel even more comfortable after I ate them. Even my inner power was slowly growing, which was why I ate so many.”

Hearing this, Han Tingxuan was even more shocked. "You're telling the truth?"

"Yes," Mo Yanzhi nodded. Then his face turned slightly pink. "That night in the village outside of the City of Jade, I... I felt very comfortable... Hubby, do you think it was because of the fruits?"

Han Tingxuan thought about it. Although according to common sense, a baby was born with a combination of sperm and an egg. But if there was a problem with an egg at that time, perhaps the combination of the sperm and the egg wasn't successful at that time, but they were only wrapped together. Due to the effect of the fruits, they managed to fuse in Mo Yanzhi's body after some time. Was it why Mo Yanzhi was only 40 days but not two months pregnant?

The more Han Tingxuan thought about it, the more likely he thought it was!

Just like how test-tube babies were conceived in modern times.

Sperm and egg were not always successfully fused on the first day! The environment was an important factor. Although he did not know much about specific technology in this aspect, the theory could work.

With that thought, Han Tingxuan explained to Mo Yanzhi.

"Yanzhi, there are some women... she-men who can't get pregnant in my world. The doctors will take out the eggs and the man's sperms, and then fertilize them in a special environment. After a while, children will be conceived. I am guessing that the fruits must have modified the baby room in your body.”

There was no saying of the womb in this world. They called womb the baby room.

"However, although the modification was successful, you were injured in the past. So it will take time to get pregnant. Although we had sex two months ago, the baby will likely arrive a little late…"

Mo Yanzhi started to believe Han Tingxuan's explanation. He felt that it was very possible! Otherwise, how could he explain it?

Thinking of this, Mo Yanzhi was excited. "Hubby, is this true?"

Han Tingxuan nodded. "That should be the case. Since the fruits have such a miraculous effect, we should send Han and the secret guards to pick some more. What do you think? We can also tell Doctor Shen to study the fruits. Maybe Doctor Shen will know why. If Doctor Shen does not know, we can turn to your master Shifu.”

"But... Master Shifu is not here. I haven't been able to contact him for a long time. Hubby, I'm worried about Master Shifu too. the whole world knows about my death, right? He may know about it. But he never showed up. Do you think if something bad happened to him?”

Since Haishan The Elderly cared so much about Mo Yanzhi, he would come back after hearing the “death” of Mo Yanzhi! Perhaps something really bad had happened to him, Han Tingxuan thought to himself. But he put on a smile, "You know what. I heard that pregnant people get panicked on every small thing so easily. You are like them!"

Mo Yanzhi blushed. "Hubby!"

Han Tingxuan laughed. "Yanzhi, Master's martial arts are so powerful. No one can hurt him. He might be busy with something.”

Mo Yanzhi thought about it and said, "That's right. He is strong in martial arts. Most people can't do anything harmful to him."

"What's more, he knows medical skills. Are you worried that he won't take good care of himself?"

Mo Yanzhi was relieved. There was a slight smile on his face.

Han Tingxuan breathed a sigh of relief and hugged him in his arms, but he still said worriedly, "Yanzhi, you are the emperor now. But this child.."

Mo Yanzhi's expression changed slightly. He looked at Han Tingxuan and said firmly, "Hubby, we must keep this child!"
