In a world where there are more men than women, I am spoiled

Pu An looked at Gongyang Ruoyu with a face full of disgust: "No conclusion has been reached yet, what are you afraid of? Lu Cejun and Yao Lao haven't seen you yet, they won't let you die."

"I'm so scared... Ugh... It's so annoying, I feel so uncomfortable," Gongyang Ruoyu said, clutching her chest.

Pu An didn't want to see Gongyang Ruoyu's expression, so he closed his eyes to rest and ignored him. They had to travel all night and attend court the next day, so they couldn't afford to be tired.

He just felt something was off, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

Forget it, I'll stop thinking about it. I'll wait until I get to Fengdu and have Lu Cejun and Yao Lao take a good look at him.

. . . . . . . . . . .

Meanwhile, Cheng Yan and Xing Chen are investigating a newly emerged assassin organization.

This assassin organization is ruthless. They will take action against anyone who pays them, regardless of their character or morality. They even harm innocent civilians and do not spare women.

Both the Broken Rainbow Alliance and the Killing Pavilion had encountered them several times, and both sides suffered losses. This organization even killed one member of the Killing Pavilion. Xingchen hurriedly brought Chengyan over, wanting to wipe out this organization.

The two of them had secretly infiltrated the organization for several days and were planning to make their move today.

But when they started fighting, Cheng Yan would always pause for a moment, and Xing Chen even blocked several deadly moves for Cheng Yan.

"Chengyan, what's wrong with you?" Xingchen asked anxiously.

"I'm... fine."

Afterwards, Cheng Yan gritted her teeth and unleashed deadly and ruthless attacks, eliminating all the assassins surrounding them one by one. Then, she lost her balance and knelt on one knee.

Xingchen flashed to his side, helped him up, and took his pulse.

"Are you feeling unwell? Your pulse is fine. Let me check again. Could it be poisoning? We were together, so if I'm alright, it's probably not poisoning."

"I'll send someone to fetch a doctor."

Cheng Yan stood up, her voice slightly breathless: "I'm fine, no need to call a doctor. I just feel exhausted all over, don't want to move, it's a feeling I can't quite describe."

"Especially these last two days, maybe it will be better tomorrow."

Xingchen stared at him intently when she heard what he said. Something was wrong! Her eyes narrowed, and a thought flashed through her mind, causing her to freeze.

This can't be....

No way?

But it seems possible that Cheng Yan and his wife had slept together on which day?

Did the others react as well? Did the lord react as well?

Xingchen asked in a slightly trembling voice, "Chengyan, do you feel tightness in your chest? Are you feeling nauseous?"

"It's alright, I feel a bit tightness in my chest, but I don't feel nauseous yet."

When Xingchen heard this, she looked at his expression, which was very similar to when he had reacted back then.

Xingchen barely hesitated before supporting him and saying, "Chengyan, let's go. Leave the cleanup to our men. We'll head back tonight and return to the manor early tomorrow morning so Yuanyi and Yaolao can give you a proper check-up."

"I'm exhausted right now, is there any need to rush? Can we wait until I've recovered before heading back?" Cheng Yan said weakly.

"No, your reaction doesn't seem right. Go back as soon as possible; I need to confirm."

"Confirm what? Am I poisoned? Am I going to die soon?" Cheng Yan asked speechlessly upon hearing Xingchen's resolute tone.

He was really feeling unwell, and rushing back was practically killing him.

Xingchen turned to look at him, her eyes deep, and said in a more serious tone, "Chengyan, if poisoning is ruled out, your current discomfort can only mean one thing."

"That means the wife is pregnant with your child. Have you forgotten how she reacted when she was pregnant with Yunsheng's child?"

"The reason why she doesn't want to vomit now is very likely that the wife is still in the early stages of pregnancy, or that she is less than a month pregnant."

"We need to go back and confirm as soon as possible."

Cheng Yan froze upon hearing Xing Chen's words, a chill running down her spine. Her voice was filled with panic: "How could this be? How could this be? My wife didn't take the fertility-enhancing fruit, how could she possibly be pregnant with our child?"

"Before Wenren Qichi entered the manor, his wife had slept with him. Afterwards, he fed his wife a pill to relieve the symptoms. That pill did not contain any fertility-enhancing fruit juice."

"But at the time, the Wen family was determined to have him marry the wife. We are not sure whether the wife had consumed the water containing fertility-enhancing juice!"

As Xingchen finished speaking, Chengyan stared at him in shock, and in an instant, the events of the previous period of time exploded in his mind.

"Ah... Xingchen, did you already guess? Otherwise, why would you specifically schedule those days for us childless kids? You...you..."

"Won't I start throwing up in a few days? I...no, I don't want to..."

Xingchen looked at the distraught Chengyan and calmly advised, "You'll have to go through this sooner or later. Your wife won't give up on any man. You're lucky, because your wife didn't promise you a second child. I've been through this twice."

"I had a slight suspicion about what happened this time. I even went to check the pills that Wenren Qichi gave his wife afterward. But those pills really didn't contain any fertility-enhancing fruit juice. If you've been exposed to it, you won't know how your wife came into contact with the fertility-enhancing fruit juice and became pregnant."

"We need to know this: the wife's constitution is different from other women; she gets pregnant 100% of the time once she gets involved with someone."

Hearing Xingchen's words, Cheng Yan was utterly desperate. Waaah... He just wanted to go back to being Cheng Yan of Xiangshan, silently guarding his wife, and not marrying her, okay?

This statement implies that for the next few decades, the wife is like a potential mother who could conceive their child at any time.

That's terrifying...

"Let's hurry back. I need to check if any of the men who slept with my wife those past few days have health problems."

Cheng Yan looked at the excited Xingchen and sensed that besides a little worry, he was more curious to see how they would react.

"You can't ride a horse in this condition, I'll have someone arrange a carriage."

After Xingchen finished speaking, he immediately let go of Chengyan's hand and quickly left.

Cheng Yan suddenly lost her balance, her body swayed, and she quickly grabbed the stone pillar next to her, almost kneeling down. Watching Xing Chen's lightning-fast steps, the corner of her mouth twitched. The more Xing Cejun watched, the more she wanted to go back and watch the show. How could he be such a person!

At this moment, Xingchen didn't care about Chengyan's appearance at all. He was really curious whether the men who had shared a room with the wife in the past few days had all gotten pregnant. If they had, he really had to congratulate those unlucky guys.

What a pleasant surprise! I didn't even think about it, and now I'm pregnant again! Isn't that amazing?

For them, it was a day of universal celebration...
