No reproach, no blame, his care softened Xie Wanqing's nose.
She gently shook her head, guilt washing over her as mist pooled in her eyes.
Xie YanYu and Ji Chengfeng had already withdrawn, along with the attendants who quietly left.
The grand courtyard was left with only the two of them.
Pei Yuqing wanted to hug her, but her belly was too large, leaving him unsure of how to proceed.
"Don't stand," his voice was a bit hoarse. After helping her to sit down slowly, he asked, "How many months?"
It was truly a ridiculous scene.
They used to be husband and wife; even the last time they met, they were whispering sweet nothings, deeply in love.
Yet, upon meeting again, she was pregnant with another man's child, and he calmly asked how many months along she was.
Xie Wanqing swallowed dryly and answered.
Seeing her embarrassment, Pei Yuqing sighed gently, carefully holding her hand, and said, "I don't blame you."
