Chapter 592 - 592 578 Sleepy Miss Jian (2)_1

Chapter 592: 578, Sleepy Miss Jian (2)_1 Chapter 592: 578, Sleepy Miss Jian (2)_1 He reasoned that Jian Qing would have already known about him using the Mental Hospital medical certificate to spare Ruohan from imprisonment. Zeng Hang was dead set on them and if Ruohan hadn’t been admitted to the Mental Hospital, Quan Jingwu would have likely made his move.

“But, that’s a Mental Hospital.” Jiang Fan covered her mouth and sobbed.

“The only alternative to the Mental Hospital is her death,” he coldly retorted, turning away from her.

Jiang Fan crumbled and fell to the ground, crying silently.

…

As the Spring Festival was approaching, the controversy surrounding Chu Ruohan had quietened down after a few days.

Much to everyone’s surprise, instead of going to jail, Chu Ruohan was admitted to a mental hospital. When this news first broke, there was a wave of regret and disbelief amongst the people.

“Jian, Even though Chu Ruohan was sent to the Mental Hospital, if she builds good relationships within, won’t she be safe and sound?” Xiya watched the news on TV, her eyes, as green as emeralds, sparkling with irony.

Jian Qing raised her lip in disbelief, “Do you really think that’s possible?”

Meeting her teasing gaze, Xiya laughed understandingly.

True, how could she lead a comfortable life under the thumb of that cunning fox? Her house sovereign wouldn’t even dare to agree.

“By the way, why is your belly getting bigger and bigger?” Jian Qing curiously looked at her round belly and asked.

Xiya caressed her pregnant belly, “Just a bit bigger.”

“With Khan visiting you so often, aren’t you afraid of him finding out?” Jian Qing asked.

“I am depressed. Can I lie about having a premature delivery, just in case I deliver before the due date?” Xiya leaned against the sofa, her hands supporting her head, and spoke.

“Do you think Khan is a fool?” Jian Qing asked, amused.

Xiya twitched her lips, “He was never that bright to begin with.”

Stupid as hell.

In the future, she hoped that her child would inherit her intelligence. If the child took after his father, her worries would be endless.

Jian Qing said, “You should stop mocking him now since he just left.”

“Dear Jian, help me brainstorm some ideas.” Xiya sat up, moved closer to Jian Qing, grabbed her hand, and pleaded.

Jian Qing glanced at her, “Aren’t you supposed to be patient?”

Xiya beamed at her, “I was just casually saying that back then. But now it seems that I can’t hide it anymore. Queen Jian, please help me.”

She was already eight months pregnant. In a month, the due date would be close. With Khan often moving around her, it would be hard for her to keep him in the dark.

Jian Qing spread her hands and laughed, “I don’t have a solution either. You were the one who got Khan involved in the first place. I can’t just drive him away.”

Xiya collapsed dejectedly on the sofa, looked up, and sighed heavily, “What do I do?”

“Alright, stop worrying now. You can play it by ear,” Jian Qing covered her ears to avoid Xiya’s shrieking.

Yeah, that sounds practical.

Xiya’s eyes twinkled brightly, and she instantly regained her energy.

She sat up and gathered the small snacks from the table into her arms.

“How much of this are you going to eat? Aren’t you tired of it?” Jian Qing tilted her head and watched her continuously munching, casually asking.

“You will understand once you get pregnant.” Xiya swallowed the food in her mouth and replied.

Jian Qing stayed silent and smiled lightly.

While eating, Xiya suddenly looked at her, raising an eyebrow and cheekily asking, “By the way, when are you guys planning to have kids? You guys are not still using condoms, are you?”

Jian Qing stayed silent and rolled her eyes at her.

“Don’t talk to me about having a baby.”

Whenever this subject came up, her waist ached.

Xiya put down the snack she had been eating, with an expression ready to hear some gossip.

“Why aren’t we discussing it? Don’t tell me your partner doesn’t want a kid and prefers a world where there’s just the two of you?”

After all, considering the overbearing possessiveness of Jingwu, it wouldn’t be impossible for him to have such thoughts.

“He is desperate for a child, almost to the point of obsession,” Jian Qing commented.

He would mention their potential child to her every night. She strongly suspected that he was using the concept of a child as an excuse to mask his lack of control.

Xiya was taken aback, “So, are you trying to have a baby now?”

Jian Qing nodded, “Sort of.”

“That is surprising. I didn’t expect your partner to want a baby so soon, I thought he would want you for himself rather than let a third person interfere in your lives.” Xiya sighed.

Xiya suddenly changed the topic and said, “Jian, why don’t we betroth our children?”

Jian Qing laughed lightly, “I am afraid that won’t work,”

“Why, you think that my little girl isn’t pretty enough?” Xiya looked upset.

“No, Xiaojing wants a younger sister.” Jian Qing calmly replied.

Xiya looked puzzled. My gosh!

These days, did all men prefer having a girl rather than a boy?

“According to Chinese customs, Spring Festival is coming up soon. Are you going to return to M Country?”

Even though Jian’s father had been living in M Country for many years, he was a pure Chinese. He would still celebrate the Spring Festival every year in M Country.

Jian Qing answered, “A few days ago, Xiaojing and I were planning to stay at the old mansion for a few days before returning to M Country.”

Xiya nodded, “If I weren’t pregnant, I would’ve liked to go back to M Country as well. I haven’t met with Bai Jue and the others for a long time. I am bored.”

“You could consider inviting Bai Jue over when you’re giving birth.” Jian Qing joked.

Xiya burst into laughter, “Then I might die on Bai Jue’s operating table.”

Jian Qing laughed, “That’s okay, I’ll take care of your little girl.”

“…”

How heartless of her to bully a pregnant woman like that.

As the Spring Festival was getting closer, the Quan Family mansion was beginning to bustle with activity.

Jian Qing raised her hand to rub her eyebrows, looking sleepily around the room, but didn’t find the familiar figure.

She extended her hand to touch the place beside her. It still felt warm to touch.

Apparently, the person next to her had only left quite recently.

She yawned. Her eyes moistened, making her obsidian black eyes appear brighter and clearer.

Shortly after, the door to the bedroom was pushed open, and footsteps could be heard.

Without looking, she felt the presence of the man in the room.

“Did you wake up?”

The man sat down at the bedside, extended his arm, and held her in his embrace.

Feeling chilly with the warm quilt off, Jian Qing shivered and nestled into his arms.

Jingwu lowered his eyelids to look at her, the corners of his lips lifting upward.

“Are you sleepy? Do you want to sleep a bit more?”

Jian Qing shook her head. Her eyebrows expressed fatigue but her eyes were still sparkling with sleepiness.

She felt sleepier than usual in the past few days, with bouts of drowsiness creeping in. She didn’t want to move at all.

Was it because her winter hibernation period had extended? Jian Qing mused wittily.

Seeing her in this tired state, Jingwu frowned. With his large hand covering her forehead, he asked, “Did you catch a cold last night?”

“No,” Jian Qing lowered his hand and spoke, sounding quite distressed.

At last night’s company party, they hadn’t stayed for even half an hour before he had dragged her away. Also, she was not dressed in a formal evening dress, so there was no chance she could have caught a cold.

“Are you hungry?” He held her slightly cold hand and asked in a soft voice.

Before she could shake her head in response, her jaw was suddenly pinched by his slender fingertips.
