Chapter 185 Contradiction and Joy

The next morning, Lu Ling'er slowly awoke, only to be greeted by Gu Yichen's unparalleled handsome face. His sleeping face was serene and elegant, as if he had weathered all the hardships of life yet remained calm and composed. Lu Ling'er gazed at him, her heart filled with gratitude and happiness. The end of the war had allowed Gu Yichen to remain by her side with peace of mind. If not, he might still be galloping across the battlefield, rather than embracing her tenderly.

She couldn't help but lower her head and kiss him lightly on the cheek, but this action woke up Gu Yichen who was "pretending to be asleep". He suddenly opened his eyes, with a hint of cunning in his eyes, and held her down, kissing her deeply on the lips.

"I haven't washed up yet, don't kiss me." Lu Linger's cheeks flushed slightly, and she said softly, feeling that it was a bit indecent not to wash up in the morning.

Gu Yichen smiled softly, kissed her forehead gently, and slowly helped her up, but kept his hands lightly around her pregnant belly, for fear of hurting her.

When he looked closely at Lu Ling'er's belly, he suddenly realized that it had grown significantly in the past few days. Gu Yichen frowned, and a sense of uneasiness suddenly rose in his heart.

"Ling'er, do you feel like your belly has gotten bigger?" Gu Yichen asked doubtfully. He recalled other pregnant women whose bellies didn't seem this big during this period, but Lu Ling'er's situation was clearly a little special.

Lu Linger also felt something was wrong and nodded, "Yeah, I think it's a bit strange too. I've been busy lately and haven't been able to pay much attention. Why don't we ask Mo Dong to come and take a look and confirm the situation?"

Gu Yichen immediately became nervous upon hearing this. He had always been extremely sensitive to Lu Linger's affairs, especially since she became pregnant. "Okay, I'll get Mo Dong over to check right away." He immediately sent for Mo Dong.

Seeing how nervous he was, Lu Linger comforted him, "Don't be so anxious. Let's wash up and have breakfast first, and it won't be too late to let Mo Dong come over later." She didn't want Gu Yichen to worry too much. After all, it only took a cup of tea to get from Jingya Garden to the clinic, and Mo Dong would be here soon.

After breakfast, Mo Dong arrived quickly. Seeing Gu Yichen's furrowed brow, Mo Dong understood that he must be worried about Lu Ling'er's baby again. He didn't dare to delay and immediately took out the pulse pillow and silk handkerchief to take Lu Ling'er's pulse.

As the pulse diagnosis continued, Mo Dong's brows furrowed slightly, as if he were lost in thought. Gu Yichen looked at him, his heart growing increasingly nervous, his back gradually soaked with cold sweat.

"Mo Dong, how is Ling'er?" Gu Yichen suppressed his inner anxiety, but his voice still trembled slightly.

Mo Dong took a deep breath and said calmly: "Brother, my sister-in-law should be pregnant with multiple babies. When I took her pulse just now, I felt several pulses in her body, and they were all very strong." He knew that in this dynasty, it was already very dangerous for pregnant women to be pregnant with twins, and multiple babies were extremely rare and full of risks.

"Multiple births?" Gu Yichen's eyes were filled with surprise and uneasiness. He understood that multiple births not only meant the joy of welcoming multiple children, but also meant that Lu Linger's risks would increase exponentially.

Lu Linger feigned a casual smile and said, "It seems my pulse diagnosis was correct." Despite her apparent ease, she was deeply concerned. Pregnancy was fraught with risk under these medical conditions, and she was well aware of her situation. But given the situation, she could only face it calmly.

"Ling'er, we must be extra careful. Mo Dong, you must stay here permanently and not be careless about any problems." Gu Yichen's tone was unquestionable firmness, and his eyes were full of concern and affection for Lu Ling'er.

Lu Linger held Gu Yichen's hand and whispered, "Don't be too nervous, I believe we will be fine. Since God has given us this gift, I will do my best to protect it." She knew that the road was full of challenges, but she believed that she could get through it all.

Seeing this, Mo Dong also said seriously: "Brother, sister-in-law's physical condition is currently stable, but she does need close observation. Multiple births mean increased risks, but with proper care, we can still ensure the safety of her and the children."

Gu Yichen felt a little relieved after hearing this, but his heart still wasn't completely at peace. He looked at Lu Ling'er, his heart filled with love and worry. This was not only his responsibility to his wife, but also a promise to the upcoming life. He silently made up his mind: no matter what happened, he would do his best to protect this family.
