Chapter 613 You Dying a Million Times Over Isn’t Enough
Qian’er had sometimes felt that it was this sense of intolerance that prevented Su Muwei from recovering fully even after drinking Qian’er’s blood for years.
When a patient’s heart felt stifled, it would be hard for them to recover.
Gu Bailu chuckled. “How interesting. She probably doesn’t live easy either.”
One should be grateful for those who kept them alive, but not only was Su Muwei ungrateful, she also hated Qian’er because of her relations.h.i.+p with Lu Fenying. She never thought about how much other people suffered for her sake.
“I can live a happier life knowing that her life is hard.”
Qian’er had never thought about this point before, because her world had been filled with nothing but fear of Lu Fenying, confusion over the future, and envy of Su Muwei.
But she could see clearly now, and understood that Su Muwei was nothing more than a pitiful creature.
But that woman only had herself to blame; she was suffering because of her own jealousy and pettiness.
“But I’m planning to give her what she wants.” Gu Bailu gave Qian’er a sly smile.
“Do whatever you want. I’ll be fine.” Qian’er trusted Gu Bailu.
Gu Bailu nodded. “If Lu Fenying comes to see you, you have to think of a way to stall him for about an hour.”
Slightly surprised, Qian’er nodded. Lu Fenying would probably come to see her because of the baby.
Gu Bailu patted her hand and said, “Get some rest. I’ve checked your blood vessels, and your pulse is steady. The baby’s fine; it’s very tough.”
Qian’er stroked her belly and said, “The witch doctor said that while we saved the baby, it may be born with congenital defects…”
“Don’t overthink it. Whatever happens, you have to give birth to the baby. Besides, n.o.body knows for sure if the baby will have a defect. There might be no need to worry. Besides… even if there’s a problem, worrying about it won’t help…” Gu Bailu comforted her.
“Mm, whatever will be, will be. As long as it doesn’t live a life like mine, as someone else’s tool…”
“What kind of life?” There was a low voice, and Lu Fenying’s tall and strong figure appeared at the door.
Gu Bailu stood up and winked at Qian’er. “I’m going back first.”
When she pa.s.sed Lu Fenying, she praised him. “Your Highness, you’re really healthy. You’ve recovered so quickly; how wonderful.”
Lu Fenying frowned. What was this mad woman going on about?
He sat down next to the bed and touched Qian’er’s forehead. “It’s a good thing the baby was saved, otherwise it wouldn’t be enough for you to die a million times over.”
Qian’er turned her head to the other side, unwilling to look at him.
“Why are you so sure it’s your child?” asked Qian’er in a low voice. She was weak in the first place, and had run out of strength after chatting with Gu Bailu.
Yet, she had been asked to stall Lu Fenying here.
Lu Fenying turned her face and made her meet his gaze, his eyes cold. “Whose baby can it be if not mine?”
“You don’t need to know. It doesn’t matter who the father is. The only thing you want is a baby that I give birth to.”
As long as it was her child, it would have Dragon Spirit Blood.
Lu Fenying’s face couldn’t be any more frightful, and he itched to squeeze her face into pieces. “I’ll make you regret being born if I find out that you’ve betrayed me.”
Qian’er chuckled. “It’s not like I’ve never experienced that before. What’s there to be scared of?”
Gu Bailu was right. There had been no reason for Qian’er to be afraid of him at all. She didn’t have any family or people she cared about, and the life of the woman he loved depended on her Dragon Spirit Blood. Why had she been scared of him back then?
