The little drama queen is both capricious and naughty, but her military officer husband insists on s

"It's all alright now."

Jiang Zao clenched her fists under the covers, stubbornly refusing to turn and look at Lu Yanxun.

Does this man even know what embarrassment is?

Has he forgotten so quickly what he just did to her?

Such an embarrassing thing just happened, and now you want to look at her belly.

This person...

Jiang Zao closed her eyes and cursed Lu Yanxun as a stinky man in her heart.

"I want to see," Lu Yanxun insisted.

Jiang Zao's reaction was to wrap herself tightly in the blanket.

“No, I won’t let you see.” Jiang Zao refused firmly. “They’re doing fine right now. If you insist on seeing them, they might start causing trouble again.”

She sneered, "If I hadn't tormented you, you wouldn't know the pain."

Lu Yanxun was worried that what Jiang Zao said might actually happen, so he didn't make any further demands.

The atmosphere became silent again.

The air seemed to gradually become thicker.

As time went by, Jiang Zao's breathing inexplicably began to become somewhat difficult.

"Could you go out for a while?" Jiang Zao suddenly urged Lu Yanxun to leave.

Lu Yanxun remained seated: "Why?"

"I want to be alone for a while," Jiang Zao said with her eyes closed.

She really didn't want to stay with Lu Yanxun anymore, though she didn't know exactly why.

Anyway, she just wants to be alone right now.

Lu Yanxun looked at Jiang Zao quietly for a while, and finally agreed: "Okay, call me if you need anything."

"I understand." Jiang Zao's face remained stubbornly turned.

He didn't even glance at Lu Yanxun.

Before leaving, Lu Yanxun took a few more careful glances at Jiang Zao.

Only after confirming that her condition was stable did I get up and leave.

The moment Lu Yanxun stepped out of the room, Jiang Zao's breathing difficulties were instantly relieved.

She took several deep breaths, and her previously pounding heart gradually returned to normal.

Jiang Zao covered her face with her hands, feeling utterly ashamed.

"Damn it, how could this happen!" Jiang Zao muttered to herself.

"Jiang Zao, calm down. Although he's your husband, he's having an affair. If you have any self-respect, don't have any feelings for him. You're with him because of a carefully planned conspiracy, and he only agreed to marry you out of a sense of responsibility. After the child is born, you two will go your separate ways and eventually part ways, so you absolutely cannot get involved..."

"You absolutely mustn't get caught up in this... Jiang Zao, you must remember this! You must remember... you must..."

"Sister?" Jiang Guo called out timidly.

Jiang Zao immediately stopped talking to himself.

She looked up and saw her younger sister, Jiang Guo, leaning against the doorframe, looking at her with a worried expression.

"Fruit?" Jiang Zao straightened her expression.

"Sister, are you alright?" Jiang Guo wanted to go inside, but was a little hesitant.

She was afraid that she would be kicked out by her sister before she even got inside.

Jiang Zao: "I'm fine, come in."

Jiang Guo jumped over the threshold and ran to the bedside. "Sis, you scared me to death! I was worried something had happened to you. What were you saying? It sounded like you were chanting a spell. It was really scary."

"It's nothing," Jiang Zao forced a smile. "I'm talking to the baby in my belly, doing prenatal education."

"Oh!" Jiang Guo nodded in sudden realization. "So it was prenatal education. You scared me! Sister, I'm glad you're okay. Here's an apple for you."

Jiang Guo took out an apple that he had been keeping in his pocket and handed it to Jiang Zao.

Jiang Zao took the apple but didn't eat it immediately: "Guozi, where is Lu Yanxun?"

“My brother-in-law is sitting in the yard. He said you told him to go out,” Jiang Guo replied.

"Hmm." After listening, Jiang Zao took a small bite of the apple.

The apples are crisp and sweet, and taste good.

Jiangzao couldn't resist taking another bite.

"Is it delicious?" Jiang Guo asked with a smile.

Jiangzao nodded.

Jiang Guo chuckled and whispered to her sister, "I picked the biggest and reddest one for you. Mengmeng wanted to eat this one, but I was quick and got it before her. She didn't get it and even glared at me."

"What's Zhou Mengmeng doing here?" Jiang Zao's expression became somewhat subtle when she mentioned this person. "Doesn't she usually dislike coming to our house?"

"I don't know either. Maybe they heard you were back, so they came to see you with your aunt and uncle." Jiang Guo shook her head.

Then she wrinkled her nose and snorted, "She doesn't like coming to our house, and I don't like going to her house either. Every time I go to her house, she looks down on me like everyone else is a country bumpkin and she's the only one who looks like a city person. I've been fed up with her for a long time."

Jiang Guo didn't like Zhou Mengmeng very much either.

The main problem is that Zhou Mengmeng always acts like she looks down on others because she is well-educated.

However, Jiang Guo was several years older than her and they didn't spend much time together, so she didn't really take it to heart.

Jiang Zao and Zhou Mengmeng are about the same age and have known each other more since childhood.

Zhou Mengmeng is nineteen years old and a senior in high school. She will be taking the college entrance examination soon.

Although the two are cousins, she usually acts arrogant and haughty, and the original owner of this body didn't get along with her at all.

The original owner didn't get along with her, which is why Jiang Zao didn't get along with her.

Therefore, Jiang Zao was not welcoming of Zhou Mengmeng's arrival.

Including her aunt.

The uncle is alright; he has always been very kind to the siblings.

My aunt couldn't take it.

In Jiang Zao's memory, her aunt had never given her and her siblings a kind look.

She treated them, the younger generation, with arrogance, and even her mother, Zhou Meixia, was somewhat haughty.

This made Jiang Zao even more dissatisfied.

Moreover, in the past, it was always her uncle who came to visit her family alone; her aunt and Zhou Mengmeng rarely came. Today, however, the whole family of three came.

"cousin?"

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao.

The Jiang sisters, Jiang Zao and Jiang Guo, were chatting about Zhou Mengmeng when she came to their door on her own.

Jiang Zao peeked into the doorway and saw Zhou Mengmeng standing there, saying affectionately, "Cousin, may I come in?"

"come in."

Only after Jiang Zao gave her permission did Zhou Mengmeng enter the room.

Her polite and well-mannered demeanor was a stark contrast to her former arrogant and disrespectful nature.

"Cousin, Auntie said your stomachache is gone, so I came to see you. I hope I won't bother you," Zhou Mengmeng said politely.

He still had a concerned look on his face.

Jiang Zao glanced at her and smiled, "You didn't bother me, so don't stand there, sit down."

"Thank you, cousin." Zhou Mengmeng said, then pulled up a stool and sat down.

"Mengmeng, it's been a long time!" Jiang Zao greeted Zhou Mengmeng first.

Zhou Mengmeng nodded: "Yes, the last time I saw my cousin was during the Chinese New Year when the whole family was together, but my cousin was very busy that day, and many relatives were surrounding her, so I didn't get a chance to talk to you."

Then, Zhou Mengmeng changed the subject: "Cousin, I heard you're pregnant with twins. Auntie even said you're carrying a boy and a girl. You're amazing!"

"We don't know yet if they're twins." Jiang Zao smiled, her attitude somewhat perfunctory.

Zhou Mengmeng, however, did not see through Jiang Zao's perfunctory attitude and said earnestly, "If Auntie says so, then it must be."
