Chapter 820 - 820 Fetal Movement, Smart Little Gu
820 Fetal Movement, Smart Little Gu
Yu Wan hurriedly turned around and hid behind a big tree.
However, this tree was alone. It could block her for a while, but not for a lifetime. When they got closer, it was still not difficult to discover her. Just as Yu Wan was hesitating about how to avoid that group of people, a clear male voice sounded in front of her.
“Saint-Saintess?”
Yu Wan’s eyebrows twitched as she looked up.
!!
It was Sikong Changfeng!
“I was mistaken.” Sikong Changfeng saw the standing posture from afar and thought that it was the little maidservant he had seen in the Nether Mountain. When he got closer, he realized that it was the Saintess. However, wasn’t this Saintess a little fatter than before? However, this had nothing to do with him.
“What are you doing here? The auspicious time is coming,” Sikong Changfeng reminded her in a distant tone.
Yu Wan did not know if she should trust this man she had only met once, but there seemed to be no other way. A man who could even treat an unfamiliar maidservant gently shouldn’t be bad, right? Even if he didn’t believe her, he might not blame her.
Yu Wan decided to give it a try. However, as soon as Yu Wan opened her mouth, she realized that something was wrong.
Strange, why couldn’t she make a sound?
Yu Wan grabbed her throat and tried again, confirming that she was “mute”. It was obvious who did it. Not only did the d.a.m.n Saintess secretly change her beautiful face, but she also took away her heavenly voice. She was really a pitiful little girl!!!
After all, the engagement had been broken off by the Saintess, and Sikong Changfeng’s relationship with the Saintess was very awkward. As the eldest brother, Sikong Changfeng planned to leave after reminding the Saintess of what to pay attention to.
But how could Yu Wan let him go?
The Saintess’ minions were nearby. Once he left, wouldn’t she not be able to call for help?
Yu Wan gritted her teeth and grabbed Sikong Changfeng’s wrist.
Sikong Changfeng looked at Yu Wan in shock and then at the hand that was holding him. He frowned. “Saintess!”
Yu Wan hurriedly waved her hand.
I’m not the Saintess.
She pointed at her throat again.
I was poisoned mute.
Sikong Changfeng was at a loss. He did not understand why the “Saintess” did not marry her brother properly on her wedding day and why she was secretly grabbing him. Could it be that she regretted her decision back then and wanted to rekindle their old relationship?
Strictly speaking, he and the Saintess had been childhood sweethearts since they were young. As the Saintess of the Lan family, Lan Ji had been highly regarded by the entire Nether Capital since she was born. She had entered the Sikong family to study when she was three years old. He knew that she would become his fiancée and had taken good care of her since she was young.
When his mother was still alive, his situation was not considered awkward. After his mother pa.s.sed away, he was neglected by the Sikong family, and the Saintess gradually faded away from him.
It would be a lie to say that he was not disappointed, but he was unwilling to force her and tacitly agreed to her distance. After that, there was news that she wanted to break off the engagement and marry his second brother instead. He was dejected in the courtyard for a while, not because he had much feelings for her, but because a person who had been told since he was young that she would marry him suddenly chose someone else. He felt as if his face had been stepped into the mud.
He vaguely remembered that his mother doted on the Saintess very much. She would always hold his hand and say, “Treat Lan Ji well. She’s your fiancée.” Since Lan Ji broke off the engagement, his last connection with his mother seemed to have been forcefully cut off.”
He had once asked her if she knew what kind of man Sikong Yun was. She did not say anything and only gave him a look that said he should mind his own business.
So… at this point, she finally saw that Sikong Yun was not a good match for her?
What a joke.
What did she take him for? If she wanted it, she would take it. If she didn’t want it, she would throw it away. Once she threw it away, she would greedily acknowledge it again. How could there be such a good thing in this world? He, Sikong Changfeng, wasn’t cheap!
Sikong Changfeng coldly brushed Yu Wan’s hand away. “Saintess, please respect yourself.”
Yu Wan was about to break down.
Si, Kong, Chang, Feng, I, am, not, the, Saintess! No!
Yu Wan tried her best to gesture, but Sikong Changfeng did not want to argue with her anymore and left decisively. Suddenly, a white light flashed from his sleeve and hit Yu Wan’s chest.
Little Gu!
Yu Wan’s eyes lit up!
Even if her appearance was different from before, even if no one in the world recognized her, Little Gu could still smell her aura.
Ever since Sikong Changfeng picked up Little Gu, he had treated it as his little pet. Now, the little pet did not stay in his arms properly but ran to another woman. However, Sikong Changfeng’s att.i.tude towards Little Gu was much gentler than his att.i.tude towards the “Saintess”.
Sikong Changfeng sighed helplessly. “Little Flower, stop fooling around.”
Yu Wan was stunned. Little, Little Flower? What kind of lame name was this?
Dong!
Little Gu’s body stiffened and rolled down.
Shame, shame…
Sikong Changfeng squatted down and picked up Little Gu. Little Gu lay on the ground and hugged his fingers with its claws, pulling them towards Yu Wan.
Yu Wan had an idea. She picked up a small branch and wrote on the ground.
“I… am… not…”
“Saintess!”
Yu Wan was only halfway through writing when Holy Envoy Li appeared like a demon.
Holy Envoy Li first bowed to Yu Wan, then to Sikong Changfeng. “Eldest Young Master is also here.”
Eldest Young Master? Yu Wan looked at Sikong Changfeng. In the Sikong family, the only person who could be called Eldest Young Master was Sikong Yun’s biological brother, right? In that case, he was also the one who made Lan Jiao retreat on the streets last time?
If it was really him, then his coldness was not surprising.
The Saintess was once his fiancée. After breaking off the engagement, she hooked up with his younger brother. No one in the world could take this lying down. She was wearing the face he hated the most now. No wonder he ignored her so much.
Sikong Changfeng’s gaze moved away from the words on the ground. He picked up Little Gu and put it into a jade bottle. Then, he looked at Holy Envoy Li and said, “How did you serve the Saintess? The auspicious time is coming, but the Saintess didn’t even change into her wedding dress.”
“I know my mistake!” Holy Envoy Li decisively admitted her mistake. “I’ve made Eldest Young Master worry. I’ll serve the Saintess well and definitely not delay the auspicious time for the Saintess and Second Young Master.”
“It’s good that you know!” With that, Sikong Changfeng walked towards the banquet hall with a dignified expression.
The moment he brushed past Yu Wan, Yu Wan suddenly turned around and blocked Holy Envoy Li’s vision with her body. She grabbed Sikong Changfeng’s hand and touched her stomach.
She wanted to remind Sikong Changfeng that she was pregnant, but the moment Sikong Changfeng’s hand reached over, Yu Wan felt her stomach move.
Yu Wan and Sikong Changfeng were stunned and retracted their hands!
Yu Wan was a doctor, so she quickly realized what it was. Whether Sikong Changfeng could understand was another matter.
Sikong Changfeng left in confusion.
Holy Envoy Li’s vision was blocked and she could not see Yu Wan’s actions clearly, but it was not difficult to guess that Yu Wan planned to ask Sikong Changfeng for help. Holy Envoy Li hurriedly walked forward and forcefully held Yu Wan’s arm. She said with a smile, “Saintess, the auspicious time is here. We should leave.”
Holy Envoy Li knew martial arts, so Yu Wan was firmly controlled by her. Yu Wan turned around to look at Sikong Changfeng, hoping that he could turn around. Holy Envoy Li turned around and pulled Yu Wan around the rockery.
Sikong Changfeng walked forward.
Little Gu was churning in the jade bottle. The Ten Thousand Gu King was in meditation, letting this little baby Gu cause trouble. Sikong Changfeng’s heart ached as he took out Little Gu. Little Gu worm rolled around in his palm.
“What’s wrong?” Sikong Changfeng asked.
Little Gu jumped to the ground and pulled a thread on his clothes, dragging him in Yu Wan’s direction. Sikong Changfeng understood its meaning and looked back, but Yu Wan was already gone.
But wasn’t this strange? Little Flower didn’t know the Saintess, so why was he “chasing after her”? Also, the Saintess today was indeed a little strange. Didn’t she always look down on him? Why did she look like she was counting on him and asking for help?
Wait, ask for help?
Sikong Changfeng carefully recalled Yu Wan’s gaze. It was indeed a request for help, but he was prejudiced against her and turned a blind eye.
Sikong Changfeng looked at his palm.
The Saintess’s stomach was big, hard, and it even moved…
“I… am… not…”
She’s not what?
Not… the Saintess?! But if she wasn’t the Saintess, who could she be?
Could it be—
A bolt of lightning suddenly flashed across Sikong Changfeng’s mind. He carefully thought through the details just now and his expression changed!
