Not to mention Dong Yue, who wanted to enter the Marquis's mansion as a concubine with a burning heart, but was poured a basin of cold water by Lu Tingxu before she even started, how disappointed and anxious she felt.

Lin Wan just felt a lot more relaxed.

Yan Liu was noisy enough, and she also had a child. If Lu Tingxu was really so ruthless and ignored her and left Dong Yue in the mansion, Lin Wan really didn't know how to comfort Yan Liu. She might even lose the child.

Now Lu Tingxu suddenly thought it through and decided to send Dong Yue away, which saved Lin Wan a lot of trouble.

I didn’t expect that even more worry-free things were yet to come.

The servant from Yurongxuan came to report that Yanliu had woken up, but was acting a little strangely.

Lin Wan was shocked. A lot of trouble had already happened to Yan Liu, and Dr. Mou had already issued an ultimatum. If it happened again, the child would be lost.

But when Lin Wan hurriedly brought her maid to Yurongxuan, it was not noisy as she expected, but quiet instead. Lin Wan looked at the maid who had just spoken with some surprise, and seeing that her face looked normal, she suddenly understood what was strange about what she said.

It was really strange that Yan Liu didn’t quarrel with Lu Tingxu!

When she walked into the room, the atmosphere became even weirder.

Lu Tingxu had been guarding Yan Liu's bed last night. His face was full of fatigue and his eyes were full of bloodshot. He was frowning and looking at Yan Liu on the bed, his teeth clenched, as if he was suppressing his anger.

Yan Liu was lying quietly on the bed, looking at the curtains above the bed with an expressionless face.

"What on earth do you want! I've already admitted my mistake, why are you still making a fuss?"

Neither of them noticed Lin Wan's arrival. Lu Tingxu gritted his teeth for a long time and asked in a restrained manner.

Yan Liu finally responded. She looked at Lu Tingxu calmly and coldly, and said, "I don't want to see you!"

Because she hadn't drunk water or eaten for a long time, her voice was hoarse, but she spoke every word clearly.

"Why? We are husband and wife, and I am the father of your child."

"We are not husband and wife. I am just your concubine. As for the child, I will give it to you after it is born. It doesn't matter who you let raise it."

"how about you?"

"I, I am myself. I don't want to see you again. I will leave after the baby is born. In this life, we will never see each other again!"

Lu Tingxu was shocked, and the anger in his heart disappeared instantly.

He looked at Yan Liu in disbelief, unable to believe that she would actually say such a thing. After a while, he coaxed her in a trembling voice: "I know, it was all my fault before, and I made you sad. Please forgive me once, I know I was wrong."

Then he gently held her hand and said, "I promise to treat you well in the future and never let you down again, okay? And the child, the three of us can live well together, okay?"

After saying that, he looked at Yan Liu eagerly, hoping that she would jump for joy like she used to, and say loudly that she forgave him since he admitted his mistake, and would never pay attention to him again if it happened again.

Thinking of this, Lu Tingxu was shocked. Never pay attention to him again? Never again!

But Yan Liu slowly pulled her hand away and stopped talking.

Lin Wan stood at the door, frowning as she watched the scene, not knowing whether she should speak.

Seeing her resolute look, Lu Tingxu felt even sadder and couldn't help but secretly lower his head and wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes.

He caught a glimpse of Lin Wan at the door, turned around and rubbed his face in panic.

When he stood up, he looked back to normal.

"Wan'er, you're here." Lu Tingxu said a little embarrassedly, then turned back to look at Yan Liu, and continued: "Please help me persuade her. She has refused to eat or take medicine since she woke up. How can this be allowed!"

Lin Wan walked to the bed, glanced at the cold pregnancy-preserving medicine on the tray, then looked at the expressionless Yan Liu, and thought for a while.

"Prince, why don't you go out first. I will come and persuade her?"

"You..." Lu Tingxu was about to refuse, but then he remembered Yan Liu's distant attitude towards him.

"Okay then. I'll go back to Xuguang Pavilion first. Send someone to notify me if anything happens."

"it is good."

Lu Tingxu walked out of the door dejectedly, and Lin Wan sat down in front of the bed.

"Take the medicine out first and make another bowl. Ask the kitchen to send a bowl of vegetable and minced meat porridge. Aunt Yan didn't eat anything last night, so it's not good for her to take the medicine on an empty stomach."

Lin Wan instructed Qiuyue.

Qiuyue withdrew in response. Lin Wan then looked at Yanliu and asked gently, "No matter what, your body is your own. If you don't eat or drink, won't you be the one who suffers?"

Then he motioned Qinglian to pour a cup of warm water over, "Drink some water to moisten your throat first."

Yan Liu finally responded. She drank a glass of warm water from Qing Lian's hand, and then waved her hand to stop Qing Lian from helping her lie down. She leaned against the head of the bed and looked at Lin Wan and said, "I caused you a lot of trouble and always embarrassed you. But you always came to persuade and comfort me. I really don't know if you are born with a kind heart or you are just pretending."

"Whether it's sincere or not, I'm just doing my duty. You're the concubine of the mansion now, and you're pregnant. No matter how you treated me in the past, I will save your life and the child's life."

"Oh, child, child, in this damn ancient time, there is not even an option for abortion!"

"You... don't want this child?"

Yan Liu raised her eyebrows, "Why? Lu Tingxu lied to me and humiliated me, do I have to keep begging him to change his mind for the sake of the child?"

Lin Wan didn't know how to respond for a moment. Yan Liu didn't need her to respond and continued, "I always thought that since I came here, I would find someone who truly loves me, fall in love passionately, and become a fairy couple that everyone envies. After meeting Lu Tingxu, every one of his conditions met my imagination of a male protagonist. So I love him and come back with him."

"But yesterday, I suddenly realized that he couldn't give me what I wanted. All the love and hate in the past were just the halos I gave him. He was actually just an ordinary feudal man who wanted to have a wife and concubines and take advantage of others' good fortune."

As she spoke, Yan Liu looked up at Lin Wan and said with a smile, "Actually, you don't love him either, right?"

"I used to be so overbearing, telling you not to snatch him away from me. But in fact, you didn't care who was with him. We were just a joke in your eyes."

"Not really. I actually like you quite a bit. You always say openly what you want and never hide anything." Lin Wan said with a smile.

"Humph, that's for sure. I'm not like you old feudal people who are timid and thoughtful!"

Seeing that Lin Wan was choked by her, Yan Liu smiled with some pride.

"If I had been able to see through things like you did at the beginning, I would probably be living a better life now. I wouldn't be like this, pregnant and locked up here."

Yan Liu lowered her head, gently stroked her belly, with a gentle smile on her face.

"Lin Wan, I'm serious. I don't want to see Lu Tingxu again, not in this life! When the child is born, I'll give him to you to raise. He doesn't need to become a great person, just grow up well. Don't tell him about me, just let him be your child."

Lin Wan frowned slightly, "What about you?"

"Me?" Yan Liu raised her head and looked at the sky outside the door. "I want to go around this ancient place and find my way home."

I want to go home! Back to the era of equality and freedom!
