Shao Zhongxi then went to the dining room in front, planning to have dinner with everyone before telling his family about this.
However, before entering the dining room, he still asked a doctor in the residence to quickly check on Qi Yin. She was indeed pregnant, and her pulse was normal. There was nothing unusual.
He was completely at ease.
When Qi Yin saw Shao Zhongxi leave, she instinctively knelt in front of Qiye and Jiuye, wanting to beg them to let her go. But before she could speak, she stopped and only cried.
Shao Zhongxi’s expression was so scary just now, that she almost trembled. He was not joking. If she ran away or took a step out of this room, he would definitely take the lives of Qiye and Jiuye.
Qiye was her brother, and Jiuye was just like everyone else. They had grown up and trained together, so they were like siblings.
However, she and her brother were different from the others. Jiuye and the others were bought by the Shao family from a man who had sold them. She and her brother had a famine that year. When he was eleven years old, her parents had starved to death. She and her brother were about to starve to death. Then, they met him. He picked her and her brother up so that they could eat their fill and live on without worrying about starving to death.
Initially, he did not intend to let them be his subordinates. It was her and her brother who felt that he had done them a great favor and wanted to repay him with their lives, so they begged him to let them receive training with others. In the future, they would be his subordinates and help him as much as they could.
Qiye and Jiuye saw Qi Yin suddenly kneel down, but she did not speak. She just sat on the ground, hugging her knees and crying non-stop. She looked extremely fragile. They met eyes and then squatted down. They asked gently, “What happened between the two of you?”
When Qi Yin heard this, her tears fell even more. “I’m pregnant again.”
“Isn’t this a good thing?” Qiye and Jiuye were extremely happy. “Shao Zhongxi is finally going to have an heir! It’s nice to use this opportunity to resolve the knot in his heart. If you hadn’t aborted the child back then, he wouldn’t have had a cold war with you for so many years.”
They put their master first. As long as their master liked them, they didn’t have any concept of being of equal status.
And wasn’t it obvious that their master, Shao Zhongxi, liked what Qi Yin liked?
Qi Yin obviously liked their master too…
Qiye was the happiest when he heard this.
One was his master, and the other was his sister. He had always hoped that both of them could be happy.
“No, no, no. No…” Qi Yin cried and shook her head. She hugged her knees and curled herself up. “You don’t understand… You don’t understand… You don’t know anything…”
“Then tell us,” Qiye and Jiuye immediately said. “We always knew you had something on your mind, but you refused to tell us no matter what.”
Qi Yin immediately fell silent.
When Qiye and Jiuye saw this, they said weakly, “No wonder Zhongxi was angry. Looking at you like this makes us angry too.”
In the dining room, because Jiang Yue was still very young, her arms were very short. She could not reach many dishes. It was Xue Yan and Xue Sifu who helped her get them.
She was given her favorite food.
Just as Jiang Yue was eating the food in her bowl, she suddenly saw Shao Zhongxi come back alone. Qi Yin was not there.
Not only Jiang Yue, but Xue Yan, Xue Sifu, the wife of the Duke, Shao Boqi, and the others all subconsciously looked at the door.
The stunned Duke Shao finally came back to his senses, and his expression immediately turned extremely ugly.
