Old Master Yan held great influence in the court, who wouldn’t rush to curry favor? Yet, that young brat Xia Geng dared to break off the engagent, how could he not be furious?
Just thinking about that day when Yan Susu accidentally overheard outside the door her father discussing with his staff officers about not dispatching troops for rescue, she was so anxious she burst into tears.
However, her father, who once treasured her like a precious jewel, was unmoved. Not only did he ignore Yan Susu’s pleas, but he also ordered her confinent.
It was only when Madam personally intervened that Yan Susu’s confinent was lifted, and Yan Susu quickly seized the opportunity to send a ssage to Ran Qing.
However, pressed for ti, she couldn’t explain the sequence of events clearly and couldn’t expose her father, which led to Ran Yan and the others misunderstanding the contents of the ssage as having ulterior motives.
"What to do, what to do? Will Madam Xia get into trouble? What can I do to help them?"
Yan Susu was so anxious she was pacing in circles, but having grown up sheltered, how could she have encountered such a situation? Sending a ssage to Ran Qing was already the limit of what she could conceive.
The little maid was also at a loss and had to comfort her, saying, "Miss, Madam Xia cos from a humble background and has strong martial arts skills, maybe, maybe she won’t be in trouble! Besides, I heard that Divine Doctor Mr. Zhen also accompanied them, with him there, Madam Xia surely won’t be in trouble, rest assured!"
Rest assured? How could she be at ease!
Yan Susu also knew the little maid was trying to console her, but now, besides comforting herself, she really couldn’t find any other way. How could she, a weak woman, challenge her father? She couldn’t even get out of the Yan Mansion gates!
"I, yes, I’ll go pray to the Bodhisattva!"
Yan Susu turned on her heel, imdiately entering the inner room, and with a plop, knelt in front of the Buddha statue.
"rciful and compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva, please bless Brother Xia and his wife to co back safely and in good health, and their children must also return safely. Yan Susu is willing to sacrifice ten years of her life to pray for the blessings of their whole family, please Bodhisattva bless them, please bless them!"
Her smooth forehead banged heavily on the floor, and the kind and compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva gazed sympathetically at the woman who knelt unwaveringly...
After a day of being jounced around, Ran Qing looked very tired; everyone strongly urged her to rest, but all she could think of was her husband, how could she stop?
The two little ones in her belly seed to feel the jolts too, with just one day of travel they started moving vigorously.
Ran Qing clenched her teeth, caressing her high belly, softly soothing, "Children, you two are our sons, the sons of Xia Geng and Ran Qing. You must endure these pains, do you understand?"
"Sister-in-law."
Zhen Xiuming and Ran Yan ca over, and after checking her pulse, Zhen Xiuming’s face turned ashen.
Ran Qing knew sothing was wrong, but she didn’t reveal her poor condition because she had sothing very important to do.
Her husband and children were her heart and soul, if she really had to give up sothing, it might have to be her own children.
She believed that if faced with the sa situation, Xia Geng would definitely choose to save her while struggling with whom to protect!
However, she overlooked Zhen Xiuming’s abilities. Even if she didn’t speak, Zhen Xiuming could diagnose the situation.
"Madam has a strong constitution, the situation is still not bad."
Zhen Xiuming said insincerely, then turned away using the excuse of fetching the dicine box to send Ran Yan away.
Once it was just the two of them, Zhen Xiuming imdiately put on a serious face, "Madam, you shouldn’t move forward any further, your current condition is not good, if..."
"Mr. Zhen."
Before Zhen Xiuming could finish, Ran Qing quietly interrupted him, she looked at the round setting sun on the horizon and suddenly smiled, "Back when I was with Brother Geng, it wasn’t just being willful, it was he who gave courage. He broke off an arranged child betrothal for , offending many. For , he vowed to marry no one else in his life, which man in the capital doesn’t have several wives? Only he, none."
Turning her head, Ran Qing’s eyes were more determined, "Mr. Zhen, you’re not married yet, maybe you don’t understand this feeling. When you et your beloved soday, you might understand. For soone you love, not to ntion losing a child, even dying, I’d be willing."
