Lin Shuning's eyes were slightly raised at the corners, making her look cool and yet charming. Yun Sheng, who had eyes very similar to hers, added a bit of softness to his heroic spirit.

Lin Shuning looked back at Yun Sheng, a feeling of intimacy came over her. She pursed her lips and said, "I feel so too."

Yun Sheng looked at her deeply and said, "Come in, don't stand outside."

"Yes, yes," Wei Xi took Lin Shuning's hand and said with a smile, "Look at me, I was so excited that I forgot to invite you in."

A group of people came to a pavilion. The table was filled with various fruits, which looked carefully prepared.

Wei Xi pulled Lin Shuning to sit down and asked, "Miss San, I heard that your marriage with the young master of the Duke's Mansion has been annulled, right? I heard that your second sister had an affair with Zhou Yuan..."

She stopped talking halfway, as if she had thought of something.

Lin Shuning saw that she was afraid of embarrassing herself, so she smiled and nodded generously, "Yes, if nothing unexpected happens, it should be Lin Rouan who will marry into the Duke's Mansion for me."

Wei Xi nodded thoughtfully and said comfortingly: "Don't be sad, Miss San. This may be a good thing for you. Zhou Yuan is a dissolute person by nature. He is a playboy and spends all day in brothels. He is really not a good match."

"Of course I'm not sad. I even wake up laughing in my dreams." Lin Shuning smiled sweetly.

"That's good." Wei Xi smiled and wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by the maid beside her: "Madam, if you don't drink this pregnancy-preserving medicine, it will get cold, and it will have no effect if it gets cold."

"Look at me, always like this, forgetting it when I'm happy." Wei Xi's voice was as soft as the feeling she gave people. She picked up the medicine bowl and stirred it gently with a spoon.

Lin Shuning watched her movements and seemed to remember something. He asked, "Madam, how long have you been taking the medicine I prescribed for you?"

"It's been almost a month, and I've been eating it every day these days."

"So how are the results this month?" Lin Shuning asked in a low voice.

Wei Xi stroked her belly, her eyes a little tired: "The effect is very good. I could sleep well almost every night in the first half of the month. But recently, I don't know why, the child is always making a fuss. Maybe it's because she knows that she will soon meet her father and mother."

Her tone was extremely gentle, and she exuded a maternal glow.

"The medicine I prescribed is an extremely warming and nourishing medicine for prenatal care. Logically, this situation should not have happened." Lin Shuning frowned.

Wei Xi was stunned, her smile froze on the corner of her mouth. She raised her eyes and looked at Lin Shuning: "Miss San, what do you mean?"

Lin Shuning stood up and was about to take the bowl of medicine in front of her, but just as her hand touched the edge of the bowl, she was suddenly shouted at coldly.

The maid Longyue stared at her and said sternly, "Miss San, don't talk nonsense. When my mother gave birth to my brother, the fetus moved like this when it was older. What if you scare our wife by saying this?"

"Longyue! Who allowed you to talk to the Third Miss like that? She is my guest!" Wei Xi's face was somewhat angry.

Longyue was scolded and remained silent, but her eyes were fixed on the bowl of pregnancy-preserving medicine.

Lin Shuning keenly sensed some panic from them. She smiled faintly and said, "It's okay. I'm just checking this bowl of medicine. There's no need to be nervous. Madam Yun, why is Duo'er, who was following you before, gone?"

"Duo'er had something to do at home, so she asked for leave to go back, so Longyue has been serving me these days. She has a strong temper and speaks her mind, so I hope Miss San won't take it to heart."

"No wonder." Lin Shuning said in a deep tone. After she finished speaking, she brought the medicine bowl over, took the spoon, and took a sip.

Wei Xi looked at her nervously and asked anxiously, "How is it?"

Lin Shuning placed the spoon in the bowl with a serious expression, glanced at Longyue with sharp eyes, and said in a cold voice: "This medicine contains an extra blood-activating herb. If a pregnant woman takes this herb, her body temperature will increase at night, and the baby will naturally feel uncomfortable in the womb, so it will create a false impression of being active, making the mother feel tired. It won't be a problem in the short term, but over time, the mother will be too weak and cause miscarriage.

Madam, you are so pregnant now. If you have a miscarriage, it is very likely to cause heavy bleeding, resulting in two deaths."

"what?!"

Yun Sheng, who had been standing quietly by the side, stood up instantly. He had seen Wei Xi tossing and turning at night these days, unable to sleep, and being tortured into a state of mental exhaustion. He thought it was just because of the heavy period, but he didn't expect that it was actually caused by someone with ulterior motives.

He hurriedly took a few steps forward, squatted down, and held Wei Xi's hand tightly: "Madam, are you okay now?"

Wei Xi was also frightened. Her face turned pale and her body trembled slightly. She shook her head and looked at Lin Shuning helplessly: "Miss San, what you said is true. What about the child in my belly..."

Before she finished speaking, tears had already fallen.

Ever since the frightening bleeding accident some time ago, she has been very careful in everything she does, even entrusting her medication to her confidants. How could someone have secretly added blood-activating medicine into her diet?

"Madam, don't worry. Let me take your pulse first." Lin Shuning put his hand on Wei Xi's hand soothingly and gave her an affirmative look.

Wei Xi bit her lip and stretched out her wrist. Lin Shuning placed his fingers on it and his frown gradually relaxed: "The pulse is stable, just a little chaotic. It should be nothing serious."

Lin Shuning took out the Condensed Frost and Snow Pill from the space and placed it on the table: "Madam, take this medicine first and see if it will make you feel better."

"Thank you, Third Miss." The expression on Yun Sheng's face eased a little. He took out the pills and carefully rolled them into several small balls. He then handed them to Wei Xi and asked her to swallow them with water. After she finished eating, he smiled and presented her with some candied fruits with both hands as if he was pampering a child.

Careful and considerate, meticulous.

Lin Shuning curled her lips and smiled. If she could have a love like the one between Yun Sheng and Madam Yun, her life would be complete.

"Miss Third is truly a miracle cure. As soon as I took the medicine, I felt the hot feeling in my heart eased a lot." Wei Xi held his chest, his tone gentle, his smile as warm as a spring breeze.

Lin Shuning nodded: "That's good, but I still want to stay for one night today, so that if anything happens, I can find out in time. I just don't know if it will disturb you."

Although she knew the specific effects of this Frost and Snow Pill from the "Xuanyuan Emperor's Sutra", everyone's physique is different. She was worried that excessive dosage might lead to other problems. So, just in case, she decided to stay and observe for one night.

"Don't bother me, don't bother me," Wei Xi showed a happy expression, holding her hand affectionately, "I feel much more at ease with you here, and I was afraid of bothering you. If you don't mind, you don't have to stay in the guest room tonight. How about you sleep with me?"

"What about me?" Yun Sheng looked somewhat reluctant.

"As for you, you will naturally stay in the guest room." Wei Xi smiled and looked at Lin Shuning.

"Forget it, forget it. Today I will give my wife to the Third Miss for a day." Yun Sheng shook his head helplessly, but he felt more at ease because Lin Shuning was in charge.

He seemed to have thought of something and asked, "These days, I have checked all of Madam's things one by one, and no outsiders have ever touched them. Where did this blood-activating medicine come from?"
