After all, they had been very close to each other and loved each other very much. How could he not recognize Xie Jia's face?
But he couldn't understand why Xie Jia became like this.
It was obvious that when he sent Xie Jia back to the Xie Mansion, she was still fine!
Also, that day in the lobby of the Ministry of Justice, Xie Jia's face was fine.
It's not even a month yet, how come she looks so different?
Pei Rong was still puzzled, but his mother was getting anxious. She asked anxiously, "What are you talking about? What happened to Miss Xie's face?"
She looked at Pei Rong, and seeing that he had a gloomy face and refused to speak, she looked at his three friends and said, "If you guys are unwilling to speak, then I will go and see for myself!"
When Pei Rong heard this, he immediately became anxious.
He grabbed his mother, fearing that Xie Jia's current horrible appearance would make her angry and hurt herself.
"Don't worry too much, mother. I just suffered some minor injuries, nothing serious. It's getting late, I'll help you go back to the house to rest."
He didn't dare let his mother see Xie Jia's appearance at this moment, so he hurriedly helped her back to the bedroom.
Although Pei's mother was worried, she did not insist because today was a happy day. She waited until Pei Rong left before quietly instructing the servants to secretly keep an eye on the situation in the bridal chamber to see what was going on with Xie Jia.
After Pei Rong left, he immediately asked his three friends to keep the matter a secret.
The three of them naturally agreed.
However, it was already late and there was a curfew in the capital, so the three of them could only rest in the guest room in the front yard.
At this moment, their minds were full of Xie Jia's terrifying face, so how could they have the energy to make trouble in the bridal chamber?
As soon as they left, Pei Rong calmed down, took a deep breath, and walked back into the new house.
In the bridal chamber, the four maids were already in a panic, but Xie Jia gently touched her belly and remained calm.
She believed in Pei Rong's love for her. They had made a vow to each other under the moonlight. It was impossible for Pei Rong to betray her.
Now that she is pregnant with Pei Rong's child, it is even less likely that Pei Rong would betray her.
Moreover, although her father was dismissed from office, his connections are still there. Unless Pei Rong can climb up to a higher position, he will never dare to let her down!
Thinking of this, she became calmer.
So when Pei Rong walked into the bridal chamber with a gloomy face, he saw Xie Jia raise his head and stare at him with his only remaining eye.
This scene was so creepy that Pei Rong couldn't help but feel his heart beating wildly, and he almost wanted to rush out again.
But he tried hard to endure it.
He took a few steps forward, but finally stopped five steps away from Xie Jia, unable to move his legs anymore.
"What's wrong with your eyes? Why are they covered?"
Xie Jia suddenly had an idea.
Although her right eye had lost its pupil, it was wrapped in gauze. As long as she and the maids didn't tell Pei Rong, he wouldn't know.
This way, we can delay it for some more time.
She removed the gauze after Pei Rong completely accepted the fact that she was disfigured.
By then, even if he knew the truth, he probably wouldn't be too resistant.
So she said sadly, "I was attacked and my eye was injured. The doctor said I need to cover my eye with gauze and take it off after my eye recovers."
The four maids were shocked when they heard this.
However, they quickly reacted and guessed Xie Jia's plan.
So they all lowered their heads, not daring to say anything, and were even more afraid that Pei Rong would see clues from their faces.
Pei Rong had been secretly paying attention to the reactions of several people and did not miss the astonishment on the maid's face.
He looked at Xie Jia's face, which was covered with thick makeup powder and gauze covering her right eye, and he had a more and more bad premonition in his heart.
He immediately showed worry and concern, and said distressedly: "Then take off the gauze and let me see your eyes. I feel so bad that you are injured like this."
Xie Jia thought of the horrible appearance of her right eye, and her heart skipped a beat. She decisively reached out and touched her belly: "Pei Lang, I'm pregnant."
