Yun Mei gradually calmed down, but Jin Yu’s expression darkened. She struggled to speak, “Yun Mei, Zi Yuan said you had some complications…”
Yun Mei trembled, panic overtaking her. “Is the baby gone? Is it really gone?” Her voice hinted at despair.
Jin Yu quickly reassured her, “No, the baby is fine.” Hope flickered in Yun Mei’s eyes, but Jin Yu hesitated. “Yun Mei, although the baby is okay, giving birth now might be dangerous for you…”
“No,” Yun Mei panicked, clutching her belly and cutting Jin Yu off, tears brimming. “I want to have this baby, no matter how dangerous it is, I must give birth for my husband.”
“We can have another one later…”
“No,” Yun Mei threw herself into Jin Yu’s arms, gripping her clothes. “I must have this baby, I definitely must…” The child had been in her belly for so long; how could she bear to lose it?
Jin Yu ultimately gave in, agreeing to let the child be born. Yun Mei’s emotions occasionally became unstable, and Jin Yu stayed close, helping her stabilize.
Su Xi, the youngest of Jin Yu’s husbands, exuded maturity despite his awkwardness after giving birth, making him even more endearing to Jin Yu.
The rose-colored curtains were warm. Their passionate encounter lasted almost until dawn, with Su Xi falling asleep, exhausted, and Jin Yu holding him contentedly.
Xiao Lian packed her bags to leave and found an exquisite embroidered handkerchief at the bottom of her trunk. She thought of Jin Mo, recalling their first meeting. She realized she might not be as annoying as before and being with him wasn’t bad, especially since she wouldn’t be forced to do embroidery anymore. This thought made her giggle.
As Xiao Lian prepared to leave, Su Xi felt reluctant and wanted to say something to keep her but was unsure what to say. He knew Xiao Lian had suffered these past months, and temporarily leaving might improve her mood.
When Yun Mei learned Jin Yu was taking Chen Bi and Xiao Lian out, she anxiously held her hand. “Wife, you said you wouldn’t get involved in those disputes again…”
“Yes, I said that.”
