Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 553: Favor, Reeling in the Net

When getting up the next day, a certain someone was gone again, although Jing Wan wasn’t that surprised.

Because the time usually reserved for her morning exercises was now used for sleeping, as such, when Jing Wan got up, the time was quite late.

However, ever since the first three months have passed, Jing Wan’s exercise load has also been increasing. Every person’s body condition was different, so the exercise amount certain won’t be the same. Jing Wan was moving around as much as possible within her own limits, even occasionally belly dancing. Of course, there won’t be movements like violent shaking the stomach. The people by her side were somewhat alarmed and fearful, but Jing Wan felt it was quite good, not feeling unwell at all.

Under this kind of circumstance, before even reaching the fourth month, Jing Wan just felt the fetus move for the first time. Moreover, it was even quite obvious. Jing Wan first was astonished, also a bit nervous, but afterwards, it was just complete joy. “Mama, mama, the baby moved in the stomach.” Jing Wan immediately shared the news with Gong mama who was giving her a massage.

Gong mama was also shocked, and afterwards, carefully placed her hand on Jing Wan’s stomach. Under her palm, she also clearly sensed it. It’s not that Gong mama has never seen pregnant woman before. At the time, when Sun Yi Jia was pregnant, she’d even helped look after. But, to sense it this close, it was still a first. Moreover, Jing Wan’s certainly will be different from outsiders’. As such, she also strangely became happy and nervous along with, and shortly after, hastily took Jing Wan’s pulse. From the pulse, it seems everything was fine.

Even so, Gong mama was still worried, letting someone go having Gong Jiu called over to examine again.

And the others that learned of this matter also didn’t feel there was anything inappropriate about Gong mama’s decision.

Jing Wan somewhat didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She’d long discovered, from the start, they were just more emotionally invested than her. Seeing them like this, Jing Wan instead calmed down.

After calming down, Jing Wan even had this matter thrown to the back of her mind. By the time Li Hong Yuan returned, she didn’t even think of sharing this with him. In the end, it was still the people by her side that couldn’t help but insert a word.

Speaking of which, everyone more or less have all seen pregnant women before, merely a matter of sooner or later. Just, some people will never go pay attention, that’s all. Li Hong Yuan naturally fell under this category. That’s why, regardless of whether or not he liked the child in Jing Wan’s stomach, at this time, he still more or less produced a bit of curiosity, just like certain foolish fathers wanting to lean on their wife’s stomach to listen to the child’s movement. Of course, he won’t go as far as to do this, but he still couldn’t help but place his hand on Jing Wan’s lower abdomen, carefully caressing. Clearly, he also wanted to feel it, but there weren’t any movements. Unwilling to give up, he felt around again. Aside from feeling the slight protrusion of the lower abdomen, there weren’t anything else.

Jing Wan thought to herself, silly baby, your father doesn’t like you to begin with. Now wanting you to move, how come you just don’t know to seize the opportunity to curry favor with him. If you’re really that child from his memories, then you should further show off.

Afterwards, Jing Wan’s stomach really moved, and moreover, it was even quite obvious.

Li Hong Yuan’s eyes clearly flickered with astonishment. How to put it, the feeling was very magical. On his face, there was also a trace of softness that even he didn’t detect. In the end, this was ultimately his bloodline. Not having good feelings towards children was because prior to the child’s brith, Jing Wan will need to suffer hardships, and after the child is born, he will also divide away Jing Wan’s attention. But, towards the continuation of the bloodline, that was actually a natural instinct.

Jing Wan beamed with joy, feeling that her child was able to read her mind. As for the possibility of it just being a coincidence, she won’t acknowledge.

However, her smile didn’t last for long, because after Li Hong Yuan saw her expression, the gentle expression on his face just disappeared without a trace, just like it had never appeared, so Jing Wan naturally couldn’t smile too unrestrainedly, inwardly sighing, it really was that nothing can last for more than three seconds.

“Wan Wan is just this happy?” Although he didn’t like the little bastard in her stomach, but if she’s really very happy, then it’s not like he can’t endure. A good mood, for a pregnant person, was also very important. These debts he can all record on the little bastard, and after he’s born, slowly settle the score. The old man disciplining the son, wasn’t that only natural?

———-As for him constantly going against Le Cheng Emperor, he rather didn’t feel there was any problem. This double standard couldn’t be more obvious.

TN: All

Jing Wan rather didn’t hide her good mood, because this man’s tolerance towards her was still rising. Although it was saying to have the debts all recorded in a little booklet, but in reality, how could he really settle the score with her in the future. And the so called settling the score was also nothing more than some embarrassing matters. Under normal circumstances, they didn’t do it any less. Moreover, no matter how rough he was, it was also just that. At most it was just a bit exhausting, but after resting a little, it was also just fine, not that big of a deal. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novelenglish.net . Firᴇ.net

Sure enough, after she nodded, Li Hong Yuan didn’t say anything either.

In the next two days, Li Hong Yuan was just like when he was idle, cooping in the manor, raising plants and flowers together with Jing Wan.

Under normal circumstances, in this short amount of time, that Changping Marchioness won’t know that Wei-shi has already met with mishap, but there were always the unexpected, just like for instance, if by chance something came up, suddenly contacting, then she would certainly discover that something was wrong.

Properly grasping this time difference, Li Hong Yuan should be able to take advantage of the situation, having those people all caught. Of course, even if not having this time difference, it also didn’t matter. As long as they take down the ringleader, then the small fries below won’t be worth fearing. It was nothing more than just having Li Hong Yuan’s situation leaked out. In reality, Li Hong Yuan right now didn’t believe that his actual circumstances were still as secretive as before.

These two days, the people below were investigating Changping Marquis’s eldest di son’s situation.

The matter sure enough was just as Li Hong Yuan had predicted. This person already got made use of by the Changping Marchioness. From his various actions, one can tell, he really was full of resentment, towards Changping Marquis, towards practically everyone else of Changping Marquis Manor, and towards the Cui clan. Because the matter didn’t involve Li Hong Yuan, one was unable to tell his attitude towards Li Hong Yuan, but betraying the country and committing treason, he didn’t hesitate to do. It was more than enough to see that towards the entirety of Qi Yuan, he no longer have the slightest feeling.

This person although appeared to already be crippled, but for better or worse, he still carried the Cui surname. Although it wasn’t possible for him to sit onto the Changping Marquis position anymore, he was nevertheless a pretty good way for the Cui clan to control Changping Marquis. As long as he cooperates with the Cui clan to prove that Changping Marquis was not compassionate as a father, then for Changping Marquis to preserve his own noble title, no matter what, will all need to make compromises.

As such, the other clansmen of the Cui clan, even if pretending, will still appropriately express their goodwill towards this eldest di son of Changping Marquis. And once he had a goal, this person no longer appeared that mediocre and incompetent, making the Cui clan produce pity towards him, gradually pulling in the two side’s relationship. Thus, he was always able to obtain some useful information. As the pieces and fragments amassed, it absolutely can’t be underestimated.

Based on the situation, if there’s no mishap, then Yao Rao should be by this person’s side, just don’t know how long it’s been already. Having such a woman present, the information obtained will at least double.

“Reel in the net.” Li Hong Yuan gave his order and just no longer questioned. Just, that night, he left the city and headed to the estate.

This was Li Hong Yuan’s first time meeting Changping Marchioness. How to put it, this woman appeared indifferent and tranquil, not the least bit like a prisoner. In Changping Marquis Manor, she’d already adopted a buddhist lifestyle all year round, seemingly really making her distance herself from worldly affair, and gaining a buddhist glow.

However, it was obvious to tell that these were all merely a facade.
