"When the time comes, I will tell Yue'er." Tuoba Jin kept things suspenseful.

At that time, he would show her the heads of Chang Hui, Guang Ning and other people who persecuted the Xiao family, so that she could put her mind at ease in Nanliang. She would obediently follow him back to Mobei and peacefully return to him all the promises she had broken in her previous life.

"Okay, I'm looking forward to it."

Xiao Linglang responded in a soft voice.

Guangning's child is gone, so Chang Hui and the others should come back a little later.

Xiao Linglang couldn't bear to look at her belly. The baby had been in her belly for almost seven months, and she couldn't bear to let go.

Do you really want to take the baby with you? If Tuoba Jin hadn't shown up, she wouldn't have hesitated.

But now, she couldn't be so selfish as to deprive the baby of his right to live. It was she who selfishly kept it for the sake of her body.

"Wolf Lord, will you love my baby? Even if there are other children in the future, will you still love it?"

"The one in Yue'er's belly is not yet ripe, and you want to give birth to another child for me." Tuoba Jin leaned against the little girl's face and took a deep breath like a drug addict. "You are so greedy. When we return to Mobei and you recover, I will give it to you. This time it was purely an accident. I have already punished the incense maker."

It's a completely irrelevant answer.

Xiao Linglang's face turned pale for a while, and finally her brows furrowed, and she anxiously urged him to answer again.

"As long as it's Yue'er's, I'll love it."

There was a barely perceptible trace of pain in Tuoba Jin's eyes. He was the one who raised the little bastard she left behind.

Xiao Linglang felt a little relieved after getting the answer. If she kept the child, she would naturally have to find a way for it to survive.

I don't ask for it to be rich and prosperous, but I do ask for it to live its life in peace.

As the days passed, several assassination attempts in the small courtyard outside the capital were all covered up by Tuoba Jin. The general under Guangning deliberately held back on him time and time again, watching him become more decadent, manic and incompetent each time.

Xiao Linglang occasionally learned some news about Chang Bei from him, as well as some news about him secretly manipulating the succession to the throne of the Southern Liang emperor, but Xiao Linglang didn't care about these.

Yu Changbei, did she know that he was testing whether she still had any thoughts about him? As an ordinary citizen, she could not interfere in the fight for the throne between the emperor and the crown prince, let alone stop what he did.

A few days ago, she saw Xing Qiu in the mansion and was a little surprised that she was here.

As for Xing Qiu, he asked her how she was doing.

Xiao Linglang smiled and replied, "Not bad."

Later, when they parted, she asked Xing Qiu for something and told her that what she had been waiting for was about to come.

But Xing Qiu's reaction made her a little puzzled. At that time, Xing Qiu stood opposite her and looked at her for a long time.

When the child was eight months old, Tuoba Jin brought her good news that Guangning had recovered and was about to return to Beijing. Chang Hui and the others were coming back.

Xiao Linglang touched the crossbow that had become smooth from her touch, her eyes empty.

"Lord Wolf hasn't been back for such a long time, is it okay there?"

Tuoba Jin rocked his chair and said with a proud smile: "I have a good general." Besides, the important decision-making power is in his hands, and all parties check and balance each other. Naturally, he can sit back and relax while she waits for the birth of her baby.

Xiao Linglang thought about it and it made sense. When it came to strategy, who could beat him? He was the only one willing to play with you.

She sighed in her heart. She had changed several places. This man had developed a habit of checking her things and would interrogate her about anything he had not seen before.

Guangning and the others are finally coming back, and these days of suffocation and guilt are coming to an end.

"Why did Yue'er think of this?" Tuoba Jin stood up from his chair, walked to the side of the little girl who was wandering back and forth, grabbed her, inhaled the fragrance from her body, and asked after his confused mind became a little clearer.

Xiao Linglang took the hand that was around her shoulder away and continued to walk on her own path, "I'm afraid I'll delay the Wolf Lord's important business."

"Yue'er is my priority right now." Tuoba Jin continued. When Xiao Linglang came back, he grabbed her arm and led her to the chair. "Yue'er has been gone for a long time. Take a rest."

Her belly was not big, but the doctor said that she was petite and recommended that she walk more to prevent difficult labor.

"Ah."

Xiao Linglang was also a little tired.

I sat on the chair where he had been lying before, and took the book he was flipping through, which turned out to be a storybook.

He raised his eyebrows in surprise. Why did he start looking at this?

He flipped through a few pages and put it aside.

Tuoba Jin showed satisfaction on his face. When he was packing her things, he accidentally placed a book there, and he happened to see it today.

He remembered that she was interested in scriptures and travelogues, which should be what Chang Hui wanted to please her.

He walked around the table, raised his hand and threw the book out.

"Why throw it away?"

Xiao Linglang was puzzled.

"Boring."

Xiao Linglang was silent for a moment, thinking that he had changed his personality and became interested in these love stories.

She found the book interesting, raised her finger and asked the maid beside her to pick it up.

Picking up the handkerchief and gently wiping the book, Xiao Linglang said lovingly: "Lord Wolf, why don't you give it to me? I like reading these, and I can use them to kill time in my spare time."

When Tuoba Jin ordered the maid to pick up the book, his narrow and long phoenix eyes were half closed, with a trace of inquiry in his eyes. After listening to her words, he said: "It's a book that is not presentable. Just throw it away. Yue'er doesn't need to care about it."

"I really like these storybooks. Even though most of them may be the same, I just think the emotions expressed in them are very sincere." Xiao Linglang's face turned slightly red. These storybooks were indeed not worthy of being published in a refined setting, but all girls have fantasies about love.

"I will tell you a little secret, Lord Wolf. When I was in Wangshu Courtyard, I had a treasure chest. Some of the books in it were purchased by me at a high price."

"Does Yue'er like the travelogue?"

Xiao Linglang half sat up, her hands wrapped around the tassels on Tuoba Jin's waist. She puffed out her cheeks and thought about her words. Could it be that his "Yue'er" liked those boring books?

But the books she read in school were boring enough. When Xiao Linglang went back to read the travel notes, she thought about it and sincerely admired the studious girl "Yue'er". No wonder he was so attentive to the subject, as he himself was an aspiring person.

"…If there is nothing else, I can read it…"

Tuoba Jin looked at Xiao Linglang deeply twice and said nothing.

Not long after, when Xiao Linglang was standing on the covered bridge, watching the fish playing with lotus flowers, she saw the maids passing by her with piles of storybooks, and a row of black lines slid past her.

She watched him walk in front of her with steady steps, a faint smile on his face, and a cool smile, "These words were carefully selected by Gu, do you like them, Yue'er?"

She... should like it.

The corners of Xiao Linglang's mouth twitched slightly and she nodded.

"As long as you like it." Tuoba Jin nodded with a smile, looked at her clear and slightly helpless eyes, and took a deep breath.

Just like it, just like it.

Chang Hui was about to come back, and she was becoming more and more distracted.

The person delivering the books wasn't supposed to take this route. He saw that she was in a daze again and deliberately assigned her to come here.
