Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

Chapter 179 Is he still alive?

Gu Qingyuan's hand holding the chopsticks trembled, and then he said affirmatively: "Impossible."

She clearly saw with her own eyes that Chu Zhiyan had died, how could he still be alive?

"I've only seen this Gu in ancient books. I just saw a faint golden light between your eyebrows, so I asked you if you were infected with the Gu that will bring you death and life."

When Gu Qingyuan heard Ye Qiaohuan's words, she touched her brow, but felt nothing.

Zhu Moyu followed Ye Qiaohuan's gaze and looked at Gu Qingyuan's eyebrows. Sure enough, he saw a ray of golden light flowing, as if protecting her.

But he didn't say much, just quickly looked away.

To him, no one other than his family is worth his attention.

Gu Qingyuan couldn't help but ask, "Why can't I see it? I can't feel it either."

"I'm not sure about that." Ye Qiaohuan shook his head honestly.

When Gu Qingyuan thought that Chu Zhiyan might still be alive, he felt a strange feeling in his heart.

Is it disappointment?

It doesn't seem so.

He relied on the fact that the poison he had cast on him would affect him, so he made a huge contribution to winning the battle by self-harming.

She didn't understand how anyone could be willing to make such a huge sacrifice for someone they had only met a few times.

Ye Qiaohuan could see that there was a story between her and the person who cast the poison on her, but since Gu Qingyuan was unwilling to talk about it, she would not ask any more questions.

After dinner, the three of them were silent.

When they were about to part, Gu Qingyuan suddenly remembered something and asked Ye Qiaohuan, "You guys just arrived here, do you have a place to stay? I happen to have a few empty rooms at home, why don't you..."

Ye Qiaohuan interrupted her, "I won't bother you. We're staying at the inn. If you want to see me, you can come directly. I can also go see your friend's husband and see if I can cure him."

"Thank you very much." Gu Qingyuan said gratefully. She didn't expect that she would have such an unexpected gain from going out tonight.

She quickly hugged Ye Qiaohuan again, and before Zhu Moyou could speak, she immediately let go of Ye Qiaohuan and said with a smile, "Then Sister Ye, goodbye."

"OK, bye."

……

On the way back, Gu Qingyuan asked Chunfen: "Chunfen, do you think I am any different?"

She wondered if anyone else could see the golden light.

But Chunfen stared at her carefully, but saw nothing. He shook his head and said, "Young Master, you look the same as when you first arrived. Could it be that you've changed just by having a meal with that girl?"

As he spoke, Chunfen thought about it seriously for a moment.

Gu Qingyuan patted her head and said, "What are you thinking about? Forget it if you can't see it."

"What does the young master want me to see?"

"nothing."

Chunfen was not in the house when they were eating, so it was not clear what they talked about.

Chunfen became even more curious when he heard that Gu Qingyuan was fine.

"Young Master, what on earth did you talk about with those two people? Also, why did you ask me if I saw anything..."

"Spring Equinox, which of your questions should I answer?" Gu Qingyuan said helplessly.

Chunfen scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "I won't ask anymore. So should we go back?"

This question can still be answered.

Gu Qingyuan nodded and said, "Let's go back."

However, after returning, she felt a little uneasy, her mind full of what Ye Qiaohuan had said to her.

Chu Zhiyan is still alive.

But she clearly saw that he died. Could it be that he was faking his death?

Soon, Gu Qingyuan ruled out this possibility. He couldn't have faked his death because the palace was so heavily guarded. Someone must have made sure he was dead before disposing of his body.

As he thought about it, Gu Qingyuan sighed.

Now the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom is governed by people sent by the Queen, and it has changed from the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom to the Southern Xinjiang City.

I am an official with no extra work to do, so I don't need to do anything normally.

I always feel that the Queen did it on purpose because her mother held military power and did not give her real power.

Maybe he was afraid that his family would rebel.

At this moment, a servant of Ji Mingzhao came over and said, "Young Master, can you come and see Ji Cefu?"

"What's wrong with him?" Gu Qingyuan couldn't help but become nervous and hurriedly followed him.

On the way, the servant replied, "Mr. Ji has had a poor appetite lately and has not been able to rest well at night. He told me not to disturb the young master, but I was afraid that his condition would affect the child. So I took the liberty to come and see the young master."

These are normal reactions during pregnancy, but it is better to spend more time with him.

Gu Qingyuan thought about it, quickened his pace and walked over with the servant.

At this time, Ji Mingzhao was sitting by the window, not knowing what he was thinking about, and he didn't even notice Gu Qingyuan coming over.

Gu Qingyuan stretched out her hand and waved it in front of him, then pressed his shoulder, leaned close to him and said, "A Zhao!"

Ji Mingzhao was startled by her, with a look of surprise on his face, "Why are you here so late?"

"I wanted to talk about you. If the servants hadn't told me that you had a poor appetite and trouble falling asleep at night recently, I wouldn't have known about it."

"I'm fine. But my wife, why haven't you gone to rest yet?"

He was always like this, acting sensible and not wanting her to worry about him.

"Of course I miss you."

Sure enough, after hearing her words, Ji Mingzhao seemed even happier.

Aside from the celebration party she had held when she returned home from winning the tournament, he hadn't been this close to her in a while.

Gu Qingyuan took his hand and asked, "What did you eat tonight?"

Before Ji Mingzhao could answer, the servant who brought Gu Qingyuan over said as if complaining, "Mrs. Ji only drank half a bowl of porridge and didn't eat any vegetables at all."

"What?" Gu Qingyuan asked in surprise. He actually ate so little.

"That's enough for me, really."

Gu Qingyuan originally wanted to scold him severely, but when she saw his eyes filled with a hint of grievance, she felt a little reluctant.

Forget it, since I'm here today, I'll just spend the night with him.

Gu Qingyuan asked someone to go to the kitchen to heat up the food and supervised Ji Mingzhao to eat it.

Ji Mingzhao took a few bites, looked at Gu Qingyuan pleadingly, and said, "I'm full."

"You've only eaten a few bites, and you're already full?"

Ji Mingzhao nodded and asked her, "Has my wife eaten yet?"

"Of course I have."

He refused to eat more, so Gu Qingyuan picked up the bowl and fed him personally.

"Look, it's edible." Gu Qingyuan had a triumphant smile on his face.

She picked up the dishes for him that he usually liked.

Afterwards, Gu Qingyuan had the table cleared and said to Ji Mingzhao, "I'm not leaving tonight."

After dinner, Gu Qingyuan talked to him for a while. But in reality, she was the one doing all the talking while Ji Mingzhao was listening.

Gu Qingyuan couldn't help but take a look at his belly. His belly was already bulging and couldn't be covered by his clothes.

As if noticing her gaze, Ji Mingzhao grabbed her hand and placed it on his stomach.

Afterwards, he leaned his head on her shoulder and spoke in a soft voice as if he was complaining.

"Wife, I've actually been feeling a little unwell recently because of the child."
