"Miss Chen."

Chen Yilan was eating happily when she suddenly heard someone calling her name and subconsciously looked up.

This sight almost made her drop the chopsticks in her hand.

"You, you, why are you here?"

Of course she remembered who the woman in front of her was, but the question was, why did she appear here?

When she thought of Hua Xin's identity, Chen Yilan felt that she had said something wrong, and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I spoke too quickly..."

"My last name is Hua, just call me Miss Hua."

Hua Xin interrupted Chen Yilan expressionlessly.

At such a sensitive time, her identity must not be exposed.

Who knows if there are any spies from Western Liao sneaking in here? If they discover her true identity, it would be unimaginable. She is here to help, not to make things worse.

Although she usually doesn't care about her identity as a princess, there is a war on the border now. It would still be a bit troublesome if she was caught.

"Okay, okay, Miss Hua, please take a seat."

Chen Yilan nodded awkwardly, but she had no intention of standing up to offer her seat. After all, she was not sure whether Hua Xin really wanted to sit down.

As expected, Hua Xin didn't seem to have any intention of sitting down, but said calmly: "No, I'll eat next to you, so I won't sit down for now. I just didn't expect that Miss Chen and I would have such a fate. Yuncheng is not big, but it's not small either, and we can still meet."

As she spoke, Hua Xin inadvertently glanced at the man sitting next to Chen Yilan.

The man was quite attractive, looking gentle and elegant.

Could this be the new man Chen Yilan has found?

Chen Yilan noticed Hua Xin's gaze and her heart tightened.

She immediately understood the meaning of Hua Xin's eyes, so she took the initiative to introduce him without hesitation: "His name is Gu Sheng, and he is my husband."

Hua Xin nodded and continued, "That's good, but now that Western Liao is invading, what's the situation here? Is it unsafe?"

Chen Yilan smiled bitterly and replied, "Miss Hua, although we are located on the border between the two countries, due to our special location, we are not only close to Nanxun State, but also bordering Xiliao, so the personnel composition here is complex and the public security situation is not optimistic. Moreover, my father is fighting on the front line at the moment, and the defense force in the city is relatively weak. I wonder how long Miss Hua plans to stay here? If you need to travel, please be sure to pay attention to your own safety."

Hua Xin nodded to express her gratitude and asked with concern: "Thank you for your kindness, are you...pregnant?"

It was not until this moment that Hua Xin noticed Chen Yilan's slightly bulging belly when she stood up.

Chen Yilan replied with a smile: "Yes, it has been more than six months."

Hua Xin quickly congratulated: "More than six months? Then let me congratulate Miss Chen first!"

Chen Yilan responded modestly: "Thank you, Miss Hua."

As Hua Xin entered the box, Chen Yilan finally breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had unloaded a heavy burden, and sat down on the chair. This action startled Gu Sheng who was standing next to her, and he quickly stepped forward to support her.

"Yilan, be careful and don't hurt yourself."

Chen Yilan smiled slightly and comforted him not to worry.

However, deep down, I couldn't calm down.

After all, she never expected to meet Hua Xin again.

Chen Yilan watched Hua Xin leave, feeling deeply moved.

If you count carefully, only one year has passed, and she is still beautiful, but I already have a child.

But compared to the past, the people around her seem different.

Especially the man in white clothes, whom Chen Yilan had never seen before.

so good!

She can choose the lifestyle she wants.

As for Chen Yilan, although her backyard is empty, fortunately there is a man named Gu Sheng who accompanies her. Moreover, she is pregnant now, and believes that her home will become lively in the future.

Thinking of this, Chen Yilan tightly grasped Gu Sheng's hand and said, "I've almost finished eating, why don't we go out for a walk to help digest the food."

"Okay, everything is up to you."

In the private room, Nangong Ziqiu saw Hua Xin walk in and asked curiously, "I thought you would eat next door!"

Hua Xin shook her head and replied with a smile: "How could that be possible? I just didn't expect Chen Yilan's personality to have changed. It seems that the teachings I gave her before were very effective."

Hua Xin didn’t know how Tianyang and others handled this matter, but at least the results seen so far were satisfactory.

"That's what her father taught her to do, okay? If you're curious, you can ask Tianyang and the others when you see them."

Nangong Ziqiu pointed at the tea in front of him and said, "The tea isn't very good. If you're not used to it, we won't drink it."

"Have you tasted it for us in advance?" Hua Xin sat down and saw Yin Zhen and Mo Chuli nodding at her. She felt a little puzzled: "Is it really that unpalatable?"

With a little curiosity and doubt, she picked up a cup, poured some tea, took a sip, and her brows instantly furrowed.

"What is this strange smell? It smells like sand, and has a slightly salty and astringent taste!" She couldn't help but smack her lips.

Nangong Ziqiu, who was standing aside, looked at Hua Xin's reaction, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a bitter smile: "Right? At first I thought there was something wrong with my taste buds, but after the three of us tried it, the result was the same. So, I suggest you better not drink it."

As he spoke, he gently moved the teapot aside to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.

However, Hua Xin did not give up exploring this strange phenomenon.

She fell into deep thought, secretly wondering if there might be something wrong with Yuncheng's water source.

After all, they didn't notice this abnormality the last time they came here.

If the water source is really polluted, the consequences will be disastrous.

Especially the soldiers on the front line, what should they do if they drink this kind of water?

The more Hua Xin thought about it, the more she felt that things might become serious, and her mood became heavier.

She frowned and muttered to herself, "Is there something wrong with the water source? If so, wouldn't the soldiers on the front line have to drink this kind of water?"

This made her worried and realized the seriousness of the situation.

Nangong Ziqiu saw Hua Xin's serious expression and immediately suggested, "Why don't we ask someone about it?"

This sentence was like a flash of inspiration, and a figure appeared in Hua Xin's mind - Chen Yilan.

As the daughter of General Zhenxi of Yuncheng Town, no one knows this city better than her.

Moreover, she is pregnant now, so if there is a problem with the drinking water source, she would have noticed it long ago.

So, Hua Xin decided to find Chen Yilan to ask about it, hoping to solve the mystery.
