Chapter 1077: 1077

Xi Lin took off her wedding dress. Wearing only her undergarments, her bulging belly was more obvious. She said, “Actually, Tianlan, I did not expect so many things to happen to you while I was away for these three months. I, too, did not expect Shen Yunya to be so vicious.”

The crimes Shen Yunya committed had long spread throughout Dongshu Nation, so naturally, she knew and had more knowledge than the word on the street.

“It’s nothing, it’s all in the past.” Feng Tianlan looked at her obviously pregnant belly and could not resist touching it. She said, “You’re nearly five months pregnant. You should feel the baby move by now. Do you still throw up? Is he well-behaved?”

“I’m okay, my appetite is a lot better. See, I even put some weight back on. His movements are very obvious now. I did not understand at first and wondered what was happening to me. It scared me so much that I went to see the physician. That was how I found out it was just the baby moving. I was so embarrassed…”

Talking about the child in her belly filled Xi Lin with happiness and the smile on her face brimmed with joy. She lavished a lot of love on the child in her belly and was full of anticipation for its birth. She could only truly believe that there was actual life growing in her after the baby moved.

The happiness of pregnancy was not something a bystander could feel.

“Sister Lin, are you really going to marry He Lianhuang?” Feng Tianlan laid beside her in bed and asked earnestly.

Xi Lin replied softly, “I am 20 years old and I have liked him for more than ten years now. I’ve wanted to marry him since I was a child. It’s wonderful that I can fulfill my dream now.”

“Sister Lin, how do you know about the civil strife in Xi Yuan Nation?” Feng Tianlan looked at her with a puzzled expression.

Xi Lin furrowed her brows and said, “I happened to hear about it when I went to a small town and then asked my people to look into it. I found out when I heard that He Lianhuang came to Dongshu Nation.”

In fact, she had suspected this was the case. It was as if someone had deliberately revealed this piece of information to her. But she was unable to find out who that person was and what their purpose was. She could only focus on He Lianhuang and did not hesitate before coming back.

As for not telling Tianlan about her suspicion, she felt that Feng Tianlan had enough matters to deal with and did not want to give her extra trouble. Also, this matter may have something to do with Shen Yunya, so she did not think more.

“And I’m in a hurry to get married because I’m almost five months along. I definitely cannot hurry on the journey back. Any later and I’m afraid I will end up giving birth on the road. As an imperial descendent, he will be castigated if he were to be born among the common people. I do not want any harm to come to him.”

Feng Tianlan smiled. “Sister Lin will be a mother in a blink of an eye.”

“Tianlan, you are also eighteen. Why are you not getting married yet? What are you waiting for? Staying by the Demon King’s side with no name and status, aren’t you suffering? Moreover, it might be damaging to your reputation.”

In regards to this, Xi Lin was very worried, afraid that she would eventually suffer a loss and be betrayed.

“I still haven’t found my parents yet, so I’m in no hurry to get married.”

Xi Lin glanced at her and spoke no further on the matter. Instead, she quickly changed the topic and told her about the trials and happiness of her pregnancy…

That night, Feng Tianlan slept beside her and they reminisced their childhood days and the adventures they had growing up together. Their past was full of memories and they had been happy.

The next day, Xi Lin got up early and let the matron of honor dress her up. Feng Tianlan helped out beside her and watched the joy and anticipation grow on her face. She could not help but smile. It looked like Sister Lin was more eager about this than she let on.

Clearly, she wanted to get married, but because of her pride and self-esteem, she did not want to admit this all along.

Although they were not starting off well, she believed that Sister Lin and He Lianhuang would end up alright because Sister Lin was a woman who deserved to be loved.

She hoped everyone she cared would be happy.
