"I’ve always led a secluded life and never made enemies with anyone. Who could be against me?" Ji Die thought for a long time yet was unable to come up with any ideas. Seeing Yun Ya’s gloomy face, she suddenly froze as something came to her mind. In an instant, her expression turned extremely ugly. She had thought of a possibility. Her hands clenched and then relaxed slightly. Lowering her head in despair, her whole demeanor seemed bleak and deathly still. Yun Ya knew she had figured it out and asked, "What do you plan to do? Divorce Uncle Qin or continue going on?" "I..." Ji Die clenched her fist, "I don’t know either." "Can’t even control your own life, who else do you expect to help you?" Yun Ya’s tone was severe, looking at her with disappointment. Ji Die dropped her head, thought for a long while, and said, "I don’t want to divorce." "Then pull yourself together, win back Uncle Qin’s heart. Is crying useful? Is complaining useful? As long as you win Uncle Qin’s heart, not even ten Ji Lanyis would matter." Ji Die bit her lip, glanced at Yun Ya, and quickly looked down again, "Alright, I’ll listen to you." Suddenly, she placed a hand on her chest, bent over, and started retching, vomiting the sour water from her stomach, her face turning red. Yun Ya squinted his eyes slightly, suddenly grabbed her hand, and placed fingers on her pulse. Ji Die was patting her chest, looking at Yun Ya in confusion. Yun Ya raised his eyebrows, "Aunt Die, you’re pregnant." Ji Die doubted her ears, "What did you say?" Yun Ya retracted his hand, speaking lightly, "Pregnant women should avoid emotional upheaval. If you want to keep this child, stop crying." Tears still hung on her face, Ji Die looked at Yun Ya blankly, appearing foolish, then suddenly grabbed Yun Ya’s hand in surprise, "Really? Am I really pregnant?" "I learned from an old Chinese medicine doctor; reading pulses is a basic skill, and your pulse is undoubtedly a happy pulse," Yun Ya said softly. Ji Die shook her head, her gaze complex as she looked at Yun Ya, "Are you sure?" Two years ago, it was Yun Ya’s scheming that led to the current bitter consequences. She really couldn’t trust Yun Ya anymore. Yun Ya smiled, "If Aunt Die doesn’t believe me, why ask me? Since there’s nothing else, I should be going." Ji Die grabbed her, "No... it’s not that, Yun Ya. I didn’t mean anything else, I was just... just too emotional, please don’t go, tell me more." Yun Ya sighed and turned back to sit down. Ji Die placed a hand on her lower abdomen, unable to hide the smile at the corner of her mouth, "It must have been that night...." Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on NoveI-Fire.ɴet Some people are just so lucky, when it seemed all hope was lost, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. This marriage won’t end. Yun Ya thought for a moment and said, "For now, don’t tell Uncle Qin about your pregnancy." "Why?" Ji Die asked in confusion. "You just argued with Uncle Qin over a false pregnancy two years ago. Now if you say you’re pregnant again, what would Uncle Qin think? He would only think you’re lying to win him back again, which will only exacerbate the conflict between you two." Ji Die wore a worried frown. "Moreover, I heard people say that one shouldn’t announce a pregnancy within the first three months, or else it’s hard to keep the child." Ji Die was startled and instinctively covered her stomach. "Then I’ll keep it a secret for now." Yun Ya nodded, "Best not to tell anyone, keep it under wraps for now. Once Uncle Qin’s anger subsides, discuss it properly with him then, at that time, he’ll only cherish you even more." Actually, she feared that if Ji Die revealed it now, they might not be able to keep the child. After all, this time she was really pregnant. That person is a lunatic, who knows what crazy things they might do. Telling Aunt Die could scare her senseless; this period of time should be enough for maneuvering. "Alright, I’ll do as you say, and won’t tell anyone." "Later, I’ll send someone over to look after you, after all, there are many precautions during pregnancy, and you lack experience. Additionally, you’re an elderly pregnant woman, so you must be careful." Ji Die grasped her hand, "Yun Ya, I’m really so grateful to you." "Is there a need for thanks between us?" Yun Ya smiled, lightly hugging her, "Aunt Die, I have to make a trip to the Capital City tomorrow, it might take some time before I come back, stay at home and take care of yourself, don’t worry about anything, we’ll talk when I return." Upon hearing Yun Ya was leaving, Ji Die immediately panicked, grabbing her hand, "Why so suddenly? How many days will you be gone? When will you come back?" With Yun Ya gone, she felt like she lost her anchor, her heart filled with unease. Yun Ya softly reassured, "I have a matter to attend to, I don’t know which day I’ll return, but rest assured, I’ll leave someone to take care of you, there’s nothing to worry about."
