After being reborn, I hugged the villainous boss tightly.

Fu Jingyuan looked at the sweet and alluring woman on his body, his phoenix eyes narrowed, a dark light shining in them.

"No~"

Unable to suppress his burning desire, he rolled over and pinned Ye Zhuxi to the bed, his hand slowly moving upwards from her swollen belly.

He paused when his palm touched her pregnant belly, his eyes filled with a tenderness that could melt anyone's heart.

"Big brother, I want you!" Ye Zhuxi smiled and stared at him the whole time, her eyes misty, so charming that one wanted to break her!

Fu Jingyuan's handsome face flushed red with suppressed desire, and a surge of longing welled up inside him. He cast aside everything, leaned down, and kissed her fiercely...

Choose a date

When Fu Jingyuan woke up, recalling everything that happened last night, he felt a sense of helplessness. Only a few days had passed, how could he have...

"wet dream!"

Thinking of those two words, he chuckled helplessly. He never imagined that something he once despised would actually happen to him!

"Lord Fu, the High Priest of the Great Zhao Kingdom requests an audience!"

When the high priest was mentioned, Fu Jingyuan's eyes, which had been smiling, instantly dimmed, and no light could be seen in his dark eyes.

Outside the tent, he approached Lu Chuan with a cold expression.

"Fifth Prince, His Majesty has asked me to instruct you that the Empress's health has been declining recently. His Majesty hopes that you will complete your mission as soon as possible and return to see the Empress, so as not to keep her waiting too long!"

Fu Jingyuan frowned, his handsome phoenix eyes filled with indifference. He glanced coldly at Lu Chuan and said with a slight parting of his thin lips, "You all know in your hearts whether Mother is really ill or not. Don't use her to threaten me!"

Lu Chuan curled his lips, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

"We are not threatening you. These are His Majesty's exact words. He is giving you a choice: your lover or your mother who has suffered a lifetime of hardship. Make your choice carefully. In five days, Dazhao will start a war. If Ye Zhenyu is not down by then, you will never see the Imperial Concubine again!"

"..."

Fu Jingyuan clenched his fist, shifted his gloomy gaze, and looked into the distance: "You've delivered the message. I'll handle the rest myself. You don't need to remind me again!"

……

At this moment, the Mu residence was filled with joy, with people coming and going, and a large group of noble ladies sitting in the back garden enjoying flowers and tea.

Today is Mother Mu's fortieth birthday. As a well-known noblewoman in the capital, her birthday is naturally celebrated by many people.

In order to dispel the rumors that Mu Zichen was infertile, she kept dragging Ye Fuyao around in front of everyone, almost as if she were hanging a conspicuous sign on Ye Fuyao.

Seeing the two of them showing off everywhere, the maid following Zhang Lingyue glared at them and said indignantly, "Miss is clearly the legitimate wife, so why is she acting like Ye Fuyao has taken over?"

"Let them be happy for a while longer, because they'll be crying later!" Zhang Lingyue curled her lips, her mood completely unaffected.

"Have you found the person I asked you to bring?"

"The people are already waiting in the woodshed for Miss's instructions!" The maid's eyes gleamed with excitement.

Ye Fuyao looked up and saw Zhang Lingyue looking at her. She proudly puffed out her swollen belly and gave her a provocative smile.

"Don't be too envious of me, little sister. Take your time, you'll have it too."

Zhang Lingyue thought that if she hadn't found out about Ye Fuyao now, she would have been furious.

She learned from Zhang Xuan that Mu Zichen was infertile, otherwise Ye Fuyao wouldn't have sought him out!

Thinking of this, it's impossible for her not to be angry. She never imagined that the eldest son of the Mu family would be unable to have children. If word got out, the whole capital would laugh at him to death.

Zhang Lingyue smiled meaningfully, her gaze falling on Ye Fuyao's protruding belly: "I should be the one reminding you. You've finally managed to get a baby in your belly, you can finally hold your head high. You'd better protect your belly, or you might lose it all!"

Zhang Lingyue has always had a bad temper, so her current ability to endure it made Ye Fuyao wonder if she had damaged her brain.

But then she suddenly realized that it was only natural for Zhang Lingyue, as a woman, to feel jealous when she saw that her husband and his concubine both had children.

Thinking of this, she touched her round belly and said, "It depends on fate when it comes to having a child. Don't worry too much, sister. It's okay if you can't get pregnant. When you get old, I will have my son take care of you!"

Zhang Lingyue sneered. She turned around and whispered a few words in the maid's ear, after which the maid ran away.

Ye Zhuxi was too far away to hear what they were saying.

……

Just as everyone was happily drinking wine and tea, a man suddenly jumped out, startling everyone into screaming.

When Ye Fuyao saw that it was Zhang Xuan, she turned pale with fright. She got up and tried to run away, but Zhang Xuan ran over and hugged her tightly.

"Yaoyao, you're so heartless! You're pregnant with my child, and you still won't divorce Mu Zichen. How can you be so cruel!"

"..."

In a single sentence, Ye Fuyao was thrust into the eye of the storm.

"What do you mean?"

"Is Ye Fuyao carrying Mu Zichen's child?"

"It's been rumored for a long time that Mu Zichen is infertile, and it turns out it's true!"

Immediately, people around began to discuss it, and their eyes gradually focused on Ye Fuyao.

Upon hearing this, Mother Mu's face turned extremely ugly. She immediately ordered her men to separate the two people who were embracing and place them in front of Ye Fuyao.

"Where did you come from, you beggar, daring to spout such nonsense!"

Although Zhang Xuan was suppressed, he still shouted fearlessly, "You Mu family members are too cruel! Yao Yao is carrying my child, not your Mu family's!"

"What did you say?" Mu Zichen, who had just stepped into the backyard, walked over with a grim expression upon hearing this.

Ye Fuyao felt extremely cold all over her body, and her face was stiff, unable to speak.

"No...no, this person is lying...I don't know him!"

Zhang Xuan had anticipated Ye Fuyao's response. He calmly pulled a handkerchief from his pocket and said, "I really am the father of the child in her womb. This is a handkerchief that Yao Yao gave me when we were together. Her name is on it!"

Mu Zichen immediately recognized the handkerchief as Ye Fuyao's. When he and Ye Fuyao were having an affair behind Ye Zhuxi's back, she had given him the exact same handkerchief and made him carry it with him at all times. At the time, he found it exciting, but he never imagined that he would be wearing this green hat one day.

Mu Zichen walked over and slapped Ye Fuyao hard across the face.

"You slut, how could you be so despicable, sleeping with any man!"

Ye Fuyao was knocked to the ground. Zhang Xuan, who had just been looking at her with infatuation, showed no pity for her when he saw her being beaten. Instead, he was gloating.

She looked up and saw Zhang Lingyue outside the crowd, a smirk playing on her lips as she looked disheveled. She instantly realized that she had been set up!
