Chapter 1087: Chapter 1081: Giving Her Advice

According to her understanding of ancient women, especially ones like Miss Du from ancient times, mostly such incidents would drive them to death in order to vindicate their honor. But looking at Miss Du now, she clearly doesn’t plan to do this.

Not committing suicide, of course, is good, so let us not worry about who the father of the child is for now.

Gu Youyou took a deep breath and said, "Alright, I won’t ask you. But if you feel wronged and want to seek revenge on that man, just tell me and I’ll certainly help you chop him up. I know about the bandits you encountered on the road, it was my fault for not considering thoroughly before letting you go, I’m sorry."

Miss Du sighed lightly, "It’s nothing, just a false alarm."

Or maybe it was ultimately a cursed bond between her and him. Even without the trip to Xining, who knows if it might have ended someplace else, in some other way.

Gu Youyou genuinely felt guilty towards her. Hearing Miss Du speak so lightly only made her more uneasy.

"But now that you’re pregnant, did that man force you?"

Miss Du shook her head and said, "Let’s not talk about this anymore, just think of a way to deal with the current situation."

Miss Du displayed great impatience, seeming truly reluctant to mention that man.

Gu Youyou sighed, "Alright, then you tell me what do you plan to do? Are you going to keep the baby or not? If not, it’s simpler, I can prescribe you a medication, and the baby will quickly be aborted without too much harm to your body."

Miss Du’s heart skipped a beat, she touched her belly and asked, "What if I keep it?"

"Keep it?" Gu Youyou looked at her in surprise, and couldn’t help but to start guessing who the man could be?

To say Miss Du fell in love with someone else so quickly seemed unlikely.

She was not that kind of person.

But if not? There was only one person in this world who could make Miss Du willingly bear a child, with such a sad expression.

But wasn’t that person safeguarding the city gate at East Sea?

Could it be Jie Zhonglin?

Miss Du touched her belly and said, "If news of my pregnancy gets out, it’s mostly likely over for me, people will guess that the child belongs to the bandits, after all I was captured by bandits and it’s no secret."

The house servants who went to Xining with her all returned safely.

Gu Youyou consoled her, smiling, "Then keep it hidden and let no one find out. You can stay here with peace of mind, and I’ll announce externally that you’ve gone to a neighboring country to expand our business. After giving birth, we can say you adopted this child, how does that sound?"

Miss Du’s eyes brightened, but she still expressed some concerns, "But will others believe this?"

Gu Youyou frowned and said, "Suddenly having a baby appear, especially when the timing might suggest it’s yours, indeed, people might suspect. Ah, how about this, you could adopt several more, of all ages, both boys and girls. Adopt one about the same age as your child, then others won’t suspect."

"Ah?" Miss Du was momentarily stunned.

Gu Youyou explained, "A single woman, a single woman who doesn’t plan to marry, a very wealthy single woman, and then adopting many homeless children is quite normal, think of it as doing charity work. You’ve made so much Silver, and you can’t spend it all."

Hearing Gu Youyou say this, Miss Du felt there was some sense to it.

The dark clouds of the past few days suddenly cleared away, she touched her belly, smiling blissfully.
