The Cousin Is About to Marry，The Abstinent Young Lord Loses Control Chapter 41: No Other Man Allowed Around Ji Mingzhu

Xie Yunzhen was filled with anger and decided to find Ji Mingzhu and make her cry.

Why was it that she could walk in the garden with another man, talking and laughing, while he had to sit in the study, enduring such tornt?

This wasn’t fair.

If he was suffering, Ji Mingzhu wouldn’t have peace either.

This ti, even if she cried like raindrops on a pear blossom, he wouldn’t let it go lightly.

The marriage was sothing she had sched for, and even if she cried, Ji Mingzhu must walk this path with him for a lifeti.

Daring to see another man halfway, she should be prepared for punishnt!

Even after sitting in the study for an hour, the anger in his heart could not be appeased.

With a cold and hard expression, Xie Yunzhen returned to the main house.

Before he even entered the door, he heard gold persuading Ji Mingzhu, "The Young Master and Madam Zheng were childhood sweethearts, so if you continue to be at odds with the Young Master, wouldn’t it give others a chance to take advantage?"

Through the carved gaps in the door, Xie Yunzhen saw Ji Mingzhu sitting upright in front of the dressing table, combing her long black hair over and over.

In the dim candlelight, her facial expression was not very clear.

Xie Yunzhen also wanted to hear what Ji Mingzhu was thinking, so he stood outside the door, motioning the maid on night watch not to announce his presence.

After a long silence inside, just when Xie Yunzhen thought Ji Mingzhu wouldn’t speak, he heard her hum.

The sound was charming, without a hint of distress.

"I still have his child in my belly. Even if he has such intentions, he wouldn’t let Du Peilan into the house at this ti, so rest assured and don’t worry so much."

"But..."

"No buts."

Ji Mingzhu nodded, caressing her belly with a gentle expression, "He won’t let anything happen to the child. If he didn’t care about this child, no one could force him to marry."

Already stifled with anger, hearing these words made Xie Yunzhen burn with even more fury, losing all reason.

If he really had the thought of taking a concubine, would Ji Mingzhu harm the child as a way to force him to change his mind?

A tiger, though fierce, would not eat its own cubs. How cruel she is.

If she could use her own child, what else is she incapable of?

Xie Yunzhen’s gaze turned cold, and he felt that his previous thoughts were laughable.

He actually... actually thought that as long as Ji Mingzhu said a few nice words, he would forgive her.

A woman as deep-minded as Ji Mingzhu, who treasures benefits the most, would have no need for his softness towards her.

This child shouldn’t even exist!

Even if born safely, it would just be a tool in Ji Mingzhu’s hands.

By what right, by what right does she bully people so?

With anger burning inside, Xie Yunzhen found he was unable to take a step forward.

Standing outside for a long ti, long enough for his anger to subside into endless coldness.

Silently and without a trace, he entered the bedroom, standing beside the bed, coldly gazing at Ji Mingzhu.

After only a few days of not seeing her, her face had thinned considerably.

If it weren’t for hearing those words, he would have thought that Ji Mingzhu was troubled by their relationship as well.

But now, it seed she didn’t care about the cold war at all. After all, with a child in her belly, no one could shake her status as the Princely Heir’s wife.

His gaze moved slightly, glancing over her slender neck, heaving chest, and finally landing on her high, protruding belly.

In this late stage of pregnancy, her belly was so large it was alarming.

Every ti he saw her pregnant belly, he always worried that Ji Mingzhu might fall or strain her back.

But now, all he felt was irritation looking at it.

Bearing a child had been turned by her into a shortcut to climb up in status.

If he wasn’t the Princely Heir of the Duke Mansion, would Ji Mingzhu still be so intent on being with him?

Xie Yunzhen’s eyes were bloodshot, his jaw tightly clenched; Ji Mingzhu didn’t love him, nor did she love this child.

In that case, this child shouldn’t be born.

Without a tool for use, let’s see what tricks she would try!

Brutal thoughts flashed through Xie Yunzhen’s mind, but his hand gently landed on Ji Mingzhu’s belly.

He waited for a long ti but did not feel the little one kicking his palm.

Xie Yunzhen’s heart skipped a beat, then he realized the child must be asleep.

Usually, Ji Mingzhu ca to the study during the day to see him, and every ti she pressed her belly against him, the child would move around joyfully.

Now it was late at night, so being asleep was normal.

Lightly stroking Ji Mingzhu’s pregnant belly, Xie Yunzhen angrily acknowledged that he simply couldn’t bring himself to harm.

Giving birth is like crossing the Ghost Gate, and inducing labor at this ti might result in both lives lost.

He didn’t want anything to happen to the child.

Nor did he want Ji Mingzhu to die...

Under his palm, a small bump erged, infuriating Xie Yunzhen even more.

Even the child was mocking him!

Just as he wanted to teach it a lesson, he saw from the corner of his eye that Ji Mingzhu frowned and seed to be waking up.

Xie Yunzhen didn’t want her to know he had been there, so before Ji Mingzhu opened her eyes, he quietly left the bedroom again.

Ji Mingzhu opened her eyes looking at the canopy, the light in her eyes slowly dimming; she thought Xie Yunzhen had co.

But then, she realized, he had always ignored her and the child before; now that Du Peilan was back in the capital, how could he possibly rember them?

Hot tears slid down from the corners of her eyes, soaking the pillow.

Ji Mingzhu caressed her belly. If Xie Yunzhen was indeed to welco Du Peilan into the manor, what would beco of her and the child?

Even if she did not fight, as long as she was the Princely Heir’s wife for a day, she would be a thorn in the eyes of Xie Yunzhen and Du Peilan.

Will her child really not suffer grievances as hatred extends to the whole house?

Ji Mingzhu stared blankly at the bed canopy, perhaps she should take the initiative and end this cold war.

As long as she showed weakness and lowered herself enough, maybe Xie Yunzhen would pity her and stop associating with Du Peilan.

She knew it was humiliating to act this way, but even if not for herself, she had to think of her child.

A child without a father’s love is truly pitiable.

In the future, it might endure endless grievances too.

Ji Mingzhu raised her hand, pressing the back against her eyes, suppressing the surging urge to cry.

Aware of her emotions, the child in her belly moved incessantly.

Ji Mingzhu quickly breathed a few tis, soothingly saying, "Do you miss your dad? Tomorrow, Mom will take you to see him."

She admitted defeat; she didn’t want this cold war to continue.

No matter the result, she wanted to try once more for herself, for the child.

Xie Yunzhen didn’t know Ji Mingzhu’s thoughts; all he felt was regret that he had conceded.

If things continued like this, wouldn’t Ji Mingzhu have him in her grasp with such ease?

As his mind churned, Xie Yunzhen resolved to change the situation.

He couldn’t let Ji Mingzhu influence him any longer.

Otherwise, once the child was born, he would be even more at a disadvantage.

Recalling what Ji Mingzhu said to gold, Xie Yunzhen gritted his teeth in frustration.

Is it not certain that he wouldn’t have anything with Du Peilan? Then tomorrow, he would accept the invitation and et with Du Peilan.

Let’s see if she can remain composed then!

Though he had found a way to vent, Xie Yunzhen still felt blocked inside.

"It’s neither a holiday nor a festival, what did Xie Yunxuan co back for? Soone, imdiately send him back to the academy!"

He didn’t want to delve into past matters, but now that Ji Mingzhu was his wife, no other man was allowed by her side.

Xie Yunzhen’s eyes were filled with obsession. If similar incidents occurred again, he would confine Ji Mingzhu.

Aside from his study, she would go nowhere!
