Once you start thinking this way, the seeds will be planted.

Li Xiaoyu remained silent. Just when Gu Fei thought she would not get an answer, she said something calmly.

"I won't chase you away."

Hearing this, Gu Fei paused with the spoon in his hand, and a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.

Li Xiaoyu spoke in a low voice.

Worried that he didn't hear me, I looked up at him, raised my voice, and repeated, "I won't chase you away."

Her expression was determined and her tone was firm.

Gu Fei could not see any trace of joking on her face.

As their eyes met, the temperature in the kitchen suddenly rose, and even their breathing seemed to become sticky.

The man raised his lips slightly: "I heard it."

Show your gratitude and joy just right so that the other person doesn't notice anything.

Facing those smiling eyes, Li Xiaoyu's heart beat fast, but she didn't show it, she just smiled along.

For breakfast, she had two bowls of porridge and some kimchi she made herself.

After dinner, Gu Fei wrote a prescription and gave it to Li Xiaoyu. The latter looked at the names of the medicines on it and found that there were not many she recognized, so she put the prescription away in her arms.

I told him, "There's food in the cupboard, and there's paper in the drawer under the table. If you want to kill time, just help yourself."

He told him not to go out for the time being, and then left home with his bag.

Gu Fei stood at the door and watched her go away.

Gazing at her back, he felt particularly at ease.

His eyes narrowed slightly, with a hint of smile in them. He turned around and observed the yard only when she was completely out of sight.

After a while, he looked Xiaoyu's house inside and out.

Taking out the sketchbook in which she recorded human body features, he sat on a stool in the main room, facing the yard.

With the help of natural light, I flipped through the pages one by one.

As my fingertips slid along the charcoal gray, I seemed to be able to imagine her expressions and small movements when she was painting.

Just as he was watching intently, a man climbed over the wall and unbolted the locked door. In a moment, five or six villagers dressed in coarse linen clothes walked in.

They knelt on one knee and saluted him respectfully: "Your Majesty."

Gu Fei closed the sketchbook and looked at them coldly. His gaze fixed on the woman on the far right, who was touching her belly with her hand.

He seemed to have thought of something, and ordered them in a deep voice: "Leave my house quickly."

my home?

When they heard the last two words, the secret guards were all stunned. The prince didn't treat him as an outsider at all.

They have lived in Lijia Village for the past year.

He had heard a little about his separation from the little princess from his brothers and sisters, and the little princess didn't want to stay with him forever.

It was just his wishful thinking.

After only one day here, it has become his home...

Although they were complaining in their hearts, they still had to listen to the prince's words. They stood up and saluted again, then left one after another.

Looking at Ding Jing's walking posture, Gu Fei called her.

Ding Jing looked at her friends and saw that they were looking back at her at the same time.

She still chose to stay.

When she reached the door of the main hall, she knelt down as usual.

Gu Fei interrupted her and raised her hand to signal: "Come and sit down."

Hearing this, Ding Jing felt panicked.

The people who came to protect the little princess were personally selected by the prince. At that time, the candidate for Li Fugui's wife was selected strictly based on the competition of music, chess, calligraphy, painting, and martial arts.

It means that she is the only one and was not chosen by the prince.

So she couldn't guess what the prince meant by leaving her alone. He didn't think she was not qualified to be the wife of the princess's best friend, right?

Just as I was daydreaming, Gu Fei repeated in a cold voice: "Sit down."

This casual remark made Ding Jing break out in a cold sweat.

She quickly sat down opposite him.

Gu Fei saw that she was nervous and asked in a low voice: "Are you pregnant?"

Although it was a rhetorical question, it was affirmative.

Ding Jing did not dare to hide it, suppressed her fear, and replied honestly: "Your Majesty, yes."

Hearing this, Gu Fei tapped the table lightly with her fingertips.

Then he asked, “How many months?”

"Replying to the prince, one and a half months", it's over, it's over, the prince asked these questions, could it be that he felt that he did not protect the little princess well and asked her to have an abortion...

Just when she was worried that she couldn't keep the baby and had all sorts of wild thoughts.

Gu Fei's tone slowed down a bit, and she asked softly, "How does it feel to be pregnant?"

What? ? ?

Ding Jing was ready to kneel down and beg for mercy, but he asked this?

Seeing her look surprised.

Gu Fei's eyes darkened slightly, and he looked a little impatient.

Noticing that the prince's eyes had turned cold, Ding Jing felt a chill on her back and immediately lowered her head and replied, "Your Highness, I don't have any specific feelings."

No feelings?

Gu Fei's eyebrows slightly twisted, and then he heard Ding Jing say again: "Only the maternal instinct seems to have strengthened."

"I didn't have much sympathy for small animals before, but last time I went to the mountains with Fugui to cut trees, I saw a nest of birds falling from the tree. The first thought that came to my mind was heartache."

"I feel bad for the animals. What will happen if their parents can't find them? What will happen if they lose their parents?"

Ding Jing was also shocked by her own thoughts at that time.

She, a secret guard walking on the edge of a knife, actually felt sympathy for a nest of little birds. Later, she saw some children.

When she saw them laugh, she would laugh too.

Seeing them crying, she felt sad, so when the prince asked her how she felt.

She summed it up: it's the strengthening of motherhood.

After leaving the Li family, Ding Jing was infected by Li Fugui and she also touched the back of her head.

What does the prince mean? Xiaoyu is not pregnant, so why is he asking me how I feel about being pregnant?

Confused, she met her colleague at the corner.

Several people surrounded her and asked questions like curious babies. Ding Jing did not hide anything from them. After listening to them, everyone was also confused.

"What does your lord mean?"

"How would I know? You're asking me something that makes no sense."

"Let's go, let's not talk here. It would be bad if Xiaoyu comes back and sees us."

"Let's go and discuss this somewhere else."

A group of people huddled in a secret place and discussed for a long time, but could not come to a conclusion.

Thinking about the new person at home, Li Xiaoyu bought medicine and then went to the butcher shop, clothing shop, pastry shop and other places to do some shopping.

When I came back, I still rented Xiao Wang's carriage.

She sat in the carriage and scolded Xiao Wang: "Where are you?"

Xiao Wang smiled awkwardly: "I came to find someone, but you all disappeared. Where did that person go?"

Li Xiaoyu is used to talking nonsense and telling lies.

"I don't know. When I saw you leaving, I got scared, so I left too."

"So that person is not dead?"

"I do not know."

The road at the end of the village had not been widened, so Li Xiaoyu had to get off. His backpack was full and his arms were also filled.

After saying hello to Xiao Wang, she raised her chin and looked at the road.

Walk towards home step by step.

Hearing the sound of the carriage disappear, Gu Fei came out from the darkness. He strode forward, took the package from her arms, and walked home with her side by side.

"You buy so many things every time you go to town?"
