Time Travel and Love

Chapter 139 The Toxicity Spreads

Hearing the anger in Mo Liujin's tone, Chu Qingmeng helplessly covered his face and explained, "Our granddaughter is already one year old. She's at the age where she should be enjoying her grandchildren. This is really embarrassing."

Mo Liujin finally felt relieved when he heard her say this. He began to persuade her, "Don't worry about this matter. I've told those two brats that I will definitely keep this child."

"..." That was another common problem among the brothers. When they heard something they didn't like, they suddenly lost their minds. Was she worried about her sons disagreeing? Was she worried about this getting out and being embarrassed?! If outsiders told her that her granddaughter was two years older than her youngest child, what would that even mean? Most importantly, if she gave birth to the child, she wouldn't be able to be with her until she grew up...

Seeing Chu Qingmeng still struggling, Mo Liujin grew displeased and pinned her to his chest, his other hand never leaving her belly. Seeing his persistence, Chu Qingmeng sighed and stopped arguing. Leng Feng knocked on the door, inviting Mo Liujin and the others out for dinner. It was dinnertime, and they were told that Princess Wushuang would be staying in the capital for about a month. Seeing that Chu Qingmeng still looked exhausted after another argument, Mo Liujin was afraid that she was not feeling well, so he told her not to go and asked Chunhe to take good care of her. He also asked Feiying, Feiling and Lengfeng to stand in the house and watch her, fearing that she would eat something she shouldn't without telling him and hurt the child. He also asked someone to ask the small kitchen to prepare a few refreshing side dishes that she usually liked to eat. Only then did he reluctantly leave the yard and go to the main yard. Before leaving, Chu Qingmeng asked him not to tell anyone, and scared him by saying that the child was very narrow-minded. If he told anyone about a child less than three months old, the child would get angry and leave. Mo Liujin smiled and agreed and left.

It was just a scare, but it made Chu Qingmeng suddenly think of a crucial question! His mind quickly began to flip through the past period of time he had spent with her. No! This couldn't be pregnancy! Chu Qingmeng suddenly woke up and sat up. This movement scared Chunhe enough, "My girl! Be careful! Get up slowly!"

"Feiying! Go get Quan Si! Hurry!" Chu Qingmeng panicked. She wasn't pregnant, absolutely not! Ever since moving into the Princess's Mansion, she'd been in such a mess. They'd only been together once a few days ago. Unless she was four or five months pregnant, there was no way she could be pregnant! If she was, she'd have miscarried during that fight over a month ago!

Seeing Chu Qingmeng's face pale as if she had thought of something, Feiying frowned slightly and turned to leave to invite Kui Quansi. Hearing the invitation from the Ninth Master, Quansi arrived quickly, arriving at the palace within half an hour. He immediately began to feel Chu Qingmeng's pulse, but the result was that Chu Qingmeng was indeed two months pregnant. Chu Qingmeng frowned and replied, "Impossible. Since I came back, we have only been together once, four or five months ago, and once a few days ago. How could I be two months pregnant?! If I were pregnant, I would have been lying in bed seriously injured a month ago. How could you not have noticed my pregnancy after taking my pulse so many times?"

After Quan Si confirmed that Chu Qingmeng was telling the truth, he took his pulse again. This time, he finally found a clue. There was something wrong with the slippery pulse next to the main pulse. Quan Si said carefully, "Master, can I take a look at the wound on your arm?"

Chu Qingmeng rolled up his sleeves to show him. Quan Si frowned and looked at it for a long time before asking, "Master, do you think these black lines seem to be bigger than they were at the beginning?"

Chu Qingmeng nodded. "I noticed it a few days ago, but it wasn't obvious at the time. I thought it was my illusion."

Kui Quansi's face was grim. This time, he knelt on his knees and apologized, "Master Jiu, it's all my fault! I'm afraid the poison has taken effect! The drowsiness you've experienced these past few days isn't a pregnancy symptom. It's probably because the poison has taken effect and your body can't handle it. To keep me alive, you've chosen a long sleep."

Chu Qingmeng was silent. The expressions in the eyes of the people beside him were different, but they all contained heartache and sadness.

"Master, I have to go to Shuangcheng as soon as possible. It's best to make the assassin vomit it all out at once. It's not good for me if I delay any longer!" He then took out two bottles of ammunition and said to Chu Qingmeng, "Master, these two bottles are the medicine I just developed. They can temporarily suppress the spread of the poison. At least I can't let you sleep like this anymore. You've been asleep for almost ten out of twelve hours. But if you're really sleepy, don't force yourself. Sleep when you need to."

Chu Qingmeng nodded, and Feiying took Quan Si's medicine. Quan Si left and went directly to Shuang Cheng. After Quan Si left, Leng Feng wanted to report to Mo Liujin, but Chu Qingmeng stopped him, "Let's wait until he comes back. It won't take more than an hour or two."

Thinking that Mo Liujin might be disappointed this time, Chu Qingmeng shook her head and smiled bitterly. She was glad she wasn't pregnant. She couldn't be like Jiang Qing and Jiang Che back then. Not being able to grow up with them was a bittersweet thought. She wasn't worried about the poison, though. She seemed to be somewhat unconcerned. Although seeing Mo Liujin like this had untied her stubborn heart, she still despaired of the future and began to ruthlessly give up, loving him to death.
