The lights flickered, and Bai Yu'an watched Shen Jue's face gradually become gloomy again, and the coldness rose again in his eyes.
His deep voice reached her ears, making her tremble slightly.
"Yu'an, if I respected your wishes, would you still be lying under me now?"
"If I respect your wishes, will you agree to be my wife?"
"Bai Yu'an, you don't know how."
"You asked me to respect your wishes, but you just wanted to refuse me and leave me."
"You still don't care about me in your heart until now."
"If you care about me, will you push me away coldly when I get close to you?!"
"Why can't you respect my wishes?"
Now Shen Juecai is more like a person with thorns.
Any rejection from Bai Yu'an was like touching his inner skin, causing a person who was gentle at one moment to change his face at the next moment.
Bai Yu'an's face turned pale, fearing that he would torture her again, so she put her fingers on Shen Jue's waist to comfort him.
She really wanted to have a good talk with him and didn't want the two of them to be so tired anymore.
Bai Yu'an was not happy for a moment and felt exhausted.
She and Shen Jue seemed to never get along.
She looked at Shen Jue and said softly: "Shen Jue, haven't you ever thought that you were the one who forced me from the beginning?"
"You forced me, but you didn't give me freedom or the respect I deserved."
"If it were you and me, would you ever want to live like this?"
She reached out and held his wrist: "Shen Jue, I married you as your wife. I didn't let you use this identity to imprison me. Only if you give me enough trust will I slowly feel your sincerity. ."
Shen Jue looked closely at Bai Yu'an's expression, and when her fingers fell on his wrist, his body couldn't help but tighten.
She rarely took the initiative to touch him, but every time she would lie to him.
He almost relented and agreed to her.
But Bai Yuan couldn't believe it.
She was just taking advantage of his softness towards her, she knew exactly how to seize her weakness and run away from him, just like before.
When she showed weakness with such a stubborn temper, it was because she had already made plans in her heart to leave him.
Shen Jue grabbed Bai Yu'an's wrist and pressed it on top of her head. His voice was deep and his eyes were cold: "Yu'an, if you want me to respect you, you should let me see your sincerity."
"Let me know you will never leave me."
"Only when I feel your sincerity will I give you absolute freedom and I will no longer force you."
"My whole heart is with you, and what I hope is that you respond to me with your whole heart."
"Instead of deceiving me with these lies."
With that said, Shen Jue got up from Bai Yu'an, put on his clothes and walked out.
Bai Yu'an stood up and looked at Shen Jue's back as he walked out neatly, his eyes lowered in discomfort.
Cuihong who was outside saw Shen Jue go out and walked in. She saw Bai Yuan's disheveled appearance and hurriedly walked over and whispered: "Sister Ruoyun has already gone to call for hot water. Fourth girl, please wait."
Bai Yu'an looked at the candlelight without saying a word, turned his back and buried himself in the quilt, curling up.
———————
On the second day, Bai Yu'an couldn't even go out of the courtyard. The guards from the Hou Mansion were guarding the door. Only Chen from the Xiao family could enter.
Bai Yu'an stood in the courtyard, looked at the guard at the door, and then turned around silently and returned to the house.
In the afternoon, Bai Yu'an was sitting under the window reading a book. Suddenly he felt a warm current under his body and his stomach hurt.
Cuihong saw that Bai Yuan's forehead was covered with cold sweat and her face turned pale, so she quickly asked: "What's wrong with the fourth girl?"
Bai Yu'an leaned on the chair and gasped: "Kui Shui is coming."
She hasn't been to Kwai Shui for a long time, and the last time she went back to Kwai Shui was last year.
Every time Kuishui came back, her stomach hurt as if she had been stabbed with a knife.
The pain originally started this morning, but Bai Yu'an hadn't come for a long time, and he actually forgot that Kuishui was coming soon.
Seeing that Bai Yu'an was in severe pain, Cuihong and Ruoyun quickly helped her to lie down on the bed.
Ruoyun squatted in front of Bai Yu'an to diagnose her pulse. He stood up and said to Cuihong, "You take care of her here. I'll go to the kitchen and ask someone to make a bowl of brown sugar water."
Cuihong responded. After seeing Ruoyun go out, she went to change Bai Yuan's dirty pants.
Bai Yuan huddled together in pain. When Ruoyun came in with brown sugar water, she saw that Bai Yuan's forehead was covered with sweat.
She hurriedly sat on the edge of the bed and asked Cuihong to help Bai Yuan sit up, then fed her sugar water one spoonful at a time.
She whispered to Bai Yu'an: "Your body is too cold. Drink some warming tonic for a while and you will be fine."
Bai Yu'an listened to Ruoyun's words and drank it in one mouthful, then fell softly into Cuihong's arms and snorted.
When Shen Jue came over at night, he saw Bai Yu'an in terrible pain, her petite body shrank into a ball, and all her hair was hanging down behind her, looking pitiful.
He left impulsively last night, but when the night wind blew, he began to regret it again.
Bai Yu'an lied to him, at least he took the initiative to talk to him.
He should stay with her.
Feeling distressed, she picked him up and held her in her arms, placing her warm hands on Bai Yuan's belly.
Although I was slightly happy that she finally came to Kuishui, I still felt heartbroken to see her in such pain.
He gently rubbed her belly, which was flat and soft, and wrapped her completely in his arms. '
Shen Jue kissed Bai Yu'an's hair: "Yu'an, just bear with it, the pain will stop in two days."
"I've asked the imperial doctor to prescribe you some medicine to take care of your body. Your palace is too cold and it hurts so much. It won't hurt so much when you take care of yourself."
Bai Yu'an was so dizzy from pain that she couldn't hear Shen Jue's words clearly. She closed her eyes and felt cold all over.
Shen Jue touched Bai Yu'an's slightly cold body, held her in his arms, and pulled the quilt around her body.
The chubby piece wrapped in the quilt reminded Shen Jue of the scene when Bai Yu'an went to sleep with him for the first time, and she was wrapped so tightly.
Shen Jue smiled in her eyes, brushed her fingers through Bai Yuan's sweaty temples, kissed her forehead, and carefully wiped the cold sweat from her forehead with a soft handkerchief.
She really has a delicate body, and I really don’t know how to take good care of her.
When Bai Yu'an woke up the next day, he saw the bright sky outside and felt that he had not slept so well for a long time.
Cuihong came over with hot water, squatted in front of Bai Yuan and wiped her face. Looking at Bai Yuan's newly awake face, she smiled and said, "My lord stayed with you all night last night. Are you feeling better?"
Bai Yu'an vaguely felt a hand covering her stomach last night. It turned out to be Shen Jue.
The falling pain in my lower abdomen still hasn't subsided. It was the same as before. It would take two days to get better.
She remained silent, leaning against the bed and closing her eyes.
