Sensing Ling Xiao's change, Jiujiu knew that the reason Ling Xiao was accompanying Yuan Zhen was most likely because of the child in Yuan Zhen's belly.
Jiujiu, who originally thought that Yuan Zhen might be a threat, instantly smiled.
A woman with another man's child in her belly was nothing to be afraid of.
Thinking about it, Yuan Zhen should be that so-called concubine.
From Ling Xiao's attitude towards the Emperor's marriage, it could be seen that it was impossible for Ling Xiao to take a wife.
The reason why he said that Yuan Zhen was his concubine was, firstly, to shut the Emperor and the old steward's mouths. Secondly, Ling Xiao really valued this subordinate and wanted to keep his bloodline.
Jiujiu looked at Yuan Zhen and smiled at Ling Xiao, "So it's like this. I thought that General had married and had a child without me knowing."
Jiujiu then looked at Yuan Zhen, "Elder sister just lost your husband and now you have to take care of the child alone. It must be very tiring."
When Jiujiu mentioned her dead husband again, Yuan Zhen was furious, but she couldn't show it. She could only say with a stiff expression, "It's not tiring."
"Since it's not tiring, then I have something to say to elder sister."
Jiujiu wasn't a man like Ling Xiao who didn't consider other things because of brotherly love.
She was almost killed not long ago, and this woman, Yuan Zhen, suddenly appeared. She naturally had to suspect Yuan Zhen's identity.
Even if.
Yuan Zhen didn't have any suspicions, but the way she was intimately touching Ling Xiao made Jiujiu very unhappy.
Suddenly being called out by Jiujiu, Yuan Zhen was confused, "Younger sister, there's no harm in saying it."
"Since elder sister wants me to say it, then I won't be polite." Jiujiu stepped to Ling Xiao's side and raised her head. Ling Xiao's jawline was as sharp as a knife, sharp and threatening. This was a man full of strong male hormones.
"I like General." Jiujiu is smiling on the surface, but her eyes are staring straight at Yuan Zhen. "Elder Sister, you may not know this, but I owe you a debt of gratitude for saving my life. I fell in love with you at first sight, and won't marry anyone but you.
I'm a narrow-minded and jealous person. I like you, so I can't bear to see other women by your side. "
Jiujiu paused. She looked at Yuan Zhen's face and said, "Even if Sister is the wife of a general, it won't do."
Jiujiu's words were simple and straightforward, and Yuan Zhen's cheeks instantly burned hot.
In Ling Xiao's ears, it was a bold and passionate confession.
Although Ling Xiao did not have the elegance, easygoing, or handsomeness of the average man, he was tall and strong, with strong facial features and a strong masculine aura. Coupled with his illustrious military exploits, there were still many women who flocked to him.
Some were reserved, while others were passionate and unrestrained.
But.
Never before had a confession made him feel so emotional.
She was burning from her ears to the tips of her toes.
Ling Xiao only felt that he was like a boiling kettle, letting out sizzling steam.
At this moment, Ling Xiao was incomparably glad that he had been guarding the border all year round. No matter what the situation was, his face was always dark and no one could see his emotions.
Ling Xiao wanted to scold her.
If Jiujiu's words were heard by others, her reputation would be ruined.
However, when he looked at Jiujiu's delicate face and her sparkling eyes, he couldn't say a single word even though thousands of words were at the tip of his tongue.
In the end, Ling Xiao only scolded her lightly, "Nonsense."
But Ling Xiao's voice was soft. When the scolding reached Jiujiu's ears, it did not sound like a scolding, but more like a shy whisper.
Ling Xiao was shy. That meant that Ling Xiao actually had other thoughts about her.
Originally, Jiujiu wanted to take her time with Ling Xiao. But now, with Yuan Zhen eyeing her covetously and that unknown danger, Jiujiu decided to end this quickly.
So, Jiujiu was not as shy as Ling Xiao thought. Instead, she climbed up the pole and smiled very brightly. She leaned in front of Ling Xiao and said with a smile, "General, are you shy?"
Jiujiu's suddenly enlarged face and whispered in his ear. Ling Xiao's ears heated up again.
Jiujiu's eyes were sparkling, and thousands of stars could not compare to the light in her eyes. The corners of Jiujiu's mouth curled up slightly, and the two little dimples at the corners of her mouth were delicate and cute. Ling Xiao only felt that his fingers were a little itchy, and the tip of his heart was a little hot.
Ling Xiao coughed lightly and sorted out his emotions, trying to make himself look more serious.
"Nonsense." Ling Xiao pretended to be serious and looked at Jiujiu. "Little girl, how can you be so shameless?"
"I'm only like this to you, General. I don't even want to look at anyone else." After Jiujiu finished speaking, she suddenly caught a hateful gaze. Turning her head, she saw Yuan Zhen's venomous eyes.
Yuan Zhen did not expect Jiujiu to suddenly turn her head. Even though she quickly lowered her head, Jiujiu saw the venomous hatred in her eyes.
Jiujiu's mouth curled up.
Sure enough, Yuan Zhen was as she imagined. She was not that simple.
However.
Ling Xiao was a person who valued loyalty the most. For a man who was only interested in martial arts to specially accompany Yuan Zhen out for a walk, it was clear how much he valued Yuan Zhen's stomach.
Even if Jiujiu told him that there was something wrong with Yuan Zhen, it would probably go in one ear and out the other.
Since it did not make sense, then she might as well not say it. It was fine as long as she knew what she was doing.
Jiujiu looked at Ling Xiao and said, "General, I'm hungry. Do you want to eat together?"
Jiujiu was bold and presumptuous just now. Her sudden display of weakness softened Ling Xiao's heart instantly.
Looking at Jiujiu's sparkling eyes, they instantly turned pitiful, like a little rabbit drenched in rain. It made one feel pity for her.
Ling Xiao turned to look at Yuan Zhen. "I'll get someone to send you back?"
This meant that he wanted to accompany Jiujiu for lunch.
Yuan Zhen finally got Ling Xiao to accompany her out for a walk. Naturally, she was not willing to give up the opportunity to have lunch with Ling Xiao.
Although, there was Jiujiu, the third wheel, sandwiched between them.
Yuan Zhen smiled gently. "Coincidentally, I'm also a little hungry. Let's eat together."
Jiujiu smiled faintly. "Yipin Vegetarian Restaurant's chef recently came up with some new dishes. Sister will definitely like them."
Yuan Zhen touched her stomach and smiled gently. "I've been vomiting a lot recently. Everything is the same."
Hearing Yuan Zhen say that she was vomiting a lot, Ling Xiao asked with concern, "Vomiting a lot? Why didn't you get someone to call a doctor for you? "
Yuan Zhen said, "It's always like this when you're pregnant. I'm new here, so it's not convenient for me to disturb you."
These words were really pleasant to hear.
It was not convenient to disturb her.
If she really did not want to disturb her, then she should not have come over and told them about her morning sickness.
Now that she was here and the morning sickness had been mentioned, it was really hypocritical for her to not want to disturb them for another round.
In Jiujiu's words, she was a complete green tea b * tch.
However, such words could not be said directly. Jiujiu smiled and said, "It's really not easy for Sister. Unlike me, I'm not picky and can eat anything."
Jiujiu's words did not mean anything to Ling Xiao, but to Yuan Zhen, it sounded like Jiujiu was saying that she was pretentious.
