This made Lu Shinian feel very distressed, spending most of his ti by her side every day.
Every ti Su Ruan had morning sickness, he would prepare the sour fruits, obtained at a high cost, for her to eat.
Now, Su Ruan can only eat so sour fruits to barely suppress that nausea.
The physical tornt is secondary; what makes Su Ruan most uncomfortable is the restlessness she feels while sleeping recently.
She always dreams, dreaming of various aspects of her past life.
Her whole being seems to be trapped in it, her body in the dream beyond her control.
Watching herself in the dream repeatedly make the foolish mistakes of her past life gives Su Ruan a deep sense of helplessness.
After waking up from the dream, Su Ruan would always stare blankly at the ceiling until Lu Shinian’s slightly passionate kiss brought her back to reality.
"Ruan Ruan had a nightmare again?" Lu Shinian would always ask this way.
Su Ruan propped herself up, gently responding, "Had a dream."
"Dread about so foolish things I did before."
She looked at him and smiled, a smile sowhat forced and pale.
Lu Shinian tenderly held her in his arms, "The past is past, Ruan Ruan, don’t dwell on it."
Su Ruan leaned against Lu Shinian’s embrace, her long lashes trembling slightly, and softly asked, "Do you ever think about the silly things you did in the past?"
She was really curious, would soone as proud as Lu Shinian regret so things he had done?
Lu Shinian chuckled softly, "Ruan Ruan, I never do foolish things."
Su Ruan: ...
Of course, soone as proud as Lu Shinian wouldn’t do foolish things, right?
"Alright." She sighed helplessly, "I know you’re smart, wouldn’t do anything foolish."
Her small hands climbed up Lu Shinian’s neck, wrapping around it.
"It’s just being the fool, making so many mistakes."
Perhaps it was the heightened emotional sensitivity due to pregnancy or the constant dreams about her past life over the past month, but now Su Ruan’s emotions were both fragile and volatile.
This made her voice carry a slight hint of aggrieved nasal sound when she said this, as if her eyes were also tinged with that grievance.
Lu Shinian seed to know that her emotions were out of control, coaxing her repeatedly, "No, no, I’m the fool."
"Actually, I made many mistakes."
"For example?" Su Ruan asked further.
This indeed caught Lu Shinian off guard.
After a few seconds of pause, he finally spoke, "For example, I should have realized earlier that my mother is not an ordinary person."
Su Ruan was montarily stunned.
Lu Shinian rarely ntioned his mother, also known as Lu Zhiya, the Star Lord of Wanling Star.
Even though they never knew about this before, since that encounter with Lu Zhiya, Lu Shinian has always remained calm.
He was so calm that it seed as if Lu Zhiya was not his biological mother at all.
Su Ruan collected herself, then asked, "Why do you say that?"
"When she disappeared." Lu Shinian lowered his eyes, the dark pupils reflecting Su Ruan’s figure, "There was no body."
Accompanied by that blood moon, Lu Zhiya’s body just vanished.
Not a single hair was left behind, which was abnormal in the first place.
He was still young back then, and that blood moon beca the root of his nightmares.
Yet later, as he grew up, he didn’t doubt that Lu Zhiya’s disappearance was fake at all.
It was really... too foolish.
Lu Shinian’s eyes flickered slightly, "Back then, I really thought she was dead, I was too naive."
Su Ruan touched his Adam’s apple, "Why did she have to do that back then?"
Even if she needed a legitimate reason to leave the Federation and return to the Empire, she could have done it in a better way, instead of leaving Lu Shinian in such a cruel manner.
"To make sure that I, and my father, would never forget her."
As he said this, Lu Shinian suddenly sneered.
"What a greedy woman."
Maybe she had compelling reasons to leave the Federation at that ti, but she didn’t have to do it that way.
To use such an extre thod was simply to make him and his father rember her.
Su Ruan looked thoughtfully at Lu Shinian.
"Auntie’s personality seems a bit extre," she murmured softly, "a bit like the old you."
No, it should be said that Lu Shinian’s personality resembled his mother’s.
At least in so issues, their handling was remarkably similar.
Is this the power of genetics?
Lu Shinian did not refute her words, even agreeing, "That was before."
"Now I have Ruan Ruan."
He lowered his head and gently kissed Su Ruan’s forehead.
"It’s Ruan Ruan who redeed ."
If not, he might have been crazier than Lu Zhiya.
Su Ruan chuckled, raising her head slightly with a soft and indulgent defiance.
"Then shouldn’t you thank quickly?"
Lu Shinian chuckled softly, his eyes full of tenderness, "Thank you Ruan Ruan for redeeming ."
"Whatever Ruan Ruan wants, I’ll give it to you, okay?"
Su Ruan blinked, opened her small hands, and made a gesture for a hug, "Then carry out for a walk."
"It’s too stuffy staying at ho every day."
"Alright." Lu Shinian carefully picked up Su Ruan and took her for a walk in the garden.
While the two were enjoying their warmth, in the Star Lord Manor on Wanling Star, yet another group of people ca to request Lu Zhiya to visit the "temporary resident" pregnant woman here.
Lu Zhiya refused one group after another, but this ti it was Zero from Zero Star who ca.
This person, no, this leader of robots, she couldn’t refuse.
As a lord on the sa level as herself, under Zero’s repeated requests, Lu Zhiya could only invite him in.
As soon as Zero ca in, he got straight to the point, "Where is Su Ruan?"
Clearly, he already knew the pregnant woman’s na.
Lu Zhiya poured a cup of hot tea, took a small sip, and then slowly said, "Zero, if she sees you this excited, she’s likely to suspect you of having ulterior motives."
Zero furrowed his brows.
He knew humans were smart, but also sensitive and suspicious.
Especially pregnant won, their emotions could beco unstable due to hormone fluctuations, and traits not usually displayed might be amplified during pregnancy.
Sensitivity and suspicion might beco more pronounced.
Thinking of this, Zero could only temporarily take a seat and patiently ask, "How is she physically now?"
"All our Zero Star robots are equipped with a nanny system, with the most comprehensive data updated, so we can be on duty anyti if she needs us."
The best thing about robots compared to humans is that they don’t need tedious and lengthy learning; they can imdiately start their duties once systems and data are implanted.
Lu Zhiya put down her teacup, letting the heat spread and blur her vision.
The surroundings were quiet, with only her soft breathing.
After a long pause, she slowly spoke:
