Chapter 415: 232 I Disagree (Third Update)_2

Li Ranqiu had lived a life of privilege since childhood and was very particular about things. She had been protected by Feng Yue since the apocalypse, and apart from the very beginning, she hadn’t suffered. How could she understand that it was no longer a peaceful era? She couldn’t be as wilful as before, could she?

She never wanted to become pregnant, and she always felt Feng Yue was not her equal. Now that she had met the more formidable Bai Ye, she was intent on abandoning Feng Yue to pursue a better prospect. Her disdain for him deepened, especially after receiving such a tremendous shock in front of so many people, making a fool of herself. She was so frustrated. Just when Feng Yue happened to cross her path, how could she hold back her temper?

Under normal circumstances, she would be gentle and briefly sweet, every word and expression smoothing its way into Feng Yue’s heart. But now, driven by anger, she couldn’t bother to pretend anymore. The words she spat out were like knives stabbing violently into Feng Yue’s heart, without a care for his feelings.

On the contrary, seeing the shock and sadness on Feng Yue’s face gave her a twisted sense of pleasure—See, even this man can be like this!

After being sad for a while, Feng Yue’s anger rose, and he gradually clenched his fists. But when he saw Li Ranqiu’s pale face, tear-rimmed eyes, and tearful expression, he couldn’t unleash his anger at all. Instead, he felt more distressed for her.

He forcefully suppressed his anger and patiently consoled her, "This won’t do, I’ll find a doctor to check on you."

There were doctors in this settlement, some who had fled here, others from local clinics. Feng Yue had organized them all together, usually in charge of treating injuries.

After saying that, Feng Yue rushed out and brought over the only nine doctors available to see Li Ranqiu. Li Ranqiu was experiencing morning sickness and couldn’t just take any medicine. The doctors rinsed her mouth with plain water and massaged her slightly; her symptoms improved, and she was no longer retching continuously.

Feng Yue then dismissed everyone and asked her, "Ranqiu, your clothes are dirty, let me help you wipe down and change into clean clothes."

Li Ranqiu gave him a resentful look and, after a long while, weakly nodded her head. If it weren’t for the complete lack of energy, she wouldn’t agree to Feng Yue’s suggestion at all. But the retching had drained her of all strength. Without Feng Yue’s help, she wouldn’t have been able to take care of herself.

Her beautiful dress had vomit residue, disgustingly sticky against her body, almost driving her insane!

Just thinking about this, she felt a wave of discomfort in her stomach, almost causing her to retch again. She quickly soothed her stomach, trying hard to relax and ignore the nauseous feeling. After a while, she managed to suppress the nausea and turned her head to Feng Yue, saying, "Didn’t you say you wanted to help me clean up? What are you staring at?"

But Feng Yue looked distressed, "The water is cold, I’ll find someone to heat it up, what if you get sick?"

Hearing this, Li Ranqiu was momentarily taken aback. Her gaze flickered, and despite the touch of emotion in her heart, she said to Feng Yue, "There’s no need; the weather is so hot, and I’ve always had good health, how could I possibly get sick?" She paused, then softened her voice and continued, "Don’t you have important guests? You can’t keep them waiting for too long, right? Help me clean up quickly so we can go greet the guests and avoid offending anyone."

Remembering Bai Ye and Fang Yuxin and others, Feng Yue hesitated for a moment before saying, "No need, it won’t take long; I’ll find someone to heat the water. Wait a while."

He first filled the bathtub with water, then summoned the Fire Element superpower user’s subordinate to heat the water. After that, he cleaned Li Ranqiu’s body and carried her back to their room.

After the wash, Li Ranqiu’s makeup had smeared. When she returned to the room, she swiftly reapplied a light makeup and changed into another beautiful outfit, then asked Feng Yue to use his superpower to dry her hair, and urged him to go and meet the guests.

Feng Yue did not suspect anything, but seeing Li Ranqiu wanting to wear high heels, he quickly intervened and found her a pair of soft-soled casual shoes. Li Ranqiu, wearing a dress, inherently found casual shoes mismatched. She stubbornly disagreed and wore a pair of sandals that were not too high, following Feng Yue out.

When they arrived, Fang Yuxin and the others had already bathed and changed into clean clothes, waiting for a while. As soon as Li Ranqiu entered, her eyes locked onto Bai Ye.

She was clever and noted Feng Yue’s courteous attitude toward Bai Ye, guessing Bai Ye’s capabilities were superior to Feng Yue’s. Moreover, Bai Ye’s handsome appearance fit her ideal image of a prince charming, so she couldn’t take her eyes off him.

Fang Yuxin watched this scene, smiling without speaking. However, Meng Qingluo was displeased. She looked at Li Ranqiu and suddenly said, "You must be newly pregnant, how enviable, congratulations."

Meng Qingluo’s remark changed Li Ranqiu’s expression to somewhat unnatural. She was eager to ingratiate herself with Bai Ye, hoping Bai Ye would take her away from this forsaken place and send her home. But the pregnancy news popping out unexpectedly worried her.

Worried that Bai Ye might disapprove of her, she subconsciously said, "Miss, you jest. I’ve just had some gastrointestinal discomfort lately; how could it possibly be a pregnancy?"

However, as soon as she said this, Feng Yue’s expression changed, his gaze turning somewhat cold. (To be continued.
