After Kicking Over the Scumbag, the Whole City Wants to Marry Me

Chapter 332

Gu Ying looked at the cold and handsome face of the man, and put a piece of pork rib meat in his bowl, "As expected, Adu loves me the most."

Zhao Changdu stroked the pert little nose of the young girl indulgently, “If I don’t love you, who else will I love?”

His little girl, if the Gu family doesn't love her, then he will love her. Cheng's idea of trying to tire his little girl out seems to be quite shrewd.

Gu Ying laughed very happily, leaned over and kissed his cheek lightly before quickly moving away.

When the man looked over, she smiled again, her eyes curving like crescent moons, "This is a reward."

Zhao Changdu's eyes were deep and dark. As the nourishing chicken soup slid down his throat, he only felt that the tender beauty of the little girl made him dry-mouthed. His body was full of restless heat.

Fortunately, he was very good at self-control, and suppressed the urge to completely devour her. He lowered his eyes and finished the chicken soup in the bowl.

After the husband and wife finished their meal, Zhao Changdu helped her up and wanted to take her for a walk.

Gu Ying caressed her sore lower back resentfully, and reluctantly nodded her lips, "Adu, how about sending away all the old midwives from our yard first?"

The man rejected her request without even thinking about it, "No."

"Then can Adu stop learning all kinds of strange experiences from them? Pregnant women are not actually so delicate. Look at me, I can eat and sleep well. Nian is very well-behaved and doesn't give me any trouble. I hardly vomited after the fourth month."

These famous midwives from Bianjing were all hired by him at a high price. After Gu Ning moved away, they lived in Wanli Pavilion and hired five in a row, all of them were famous midwives who had taken care of hundreds of pregnant women, at least a hundred, and were very experienced in pregnancy and childbirth.

Therefore, the Crown Prince had to take time out of his busy schedule every day to learn how to take care of pregnant women and infants.

Things like walking, sleeping postures at night, taboo foods, were all learned from those midwives.

Although this was Gu Ying's first time being pregnant herself, back in the backyard of Jiang Yin, when those women got pregnant, she was the one taking care of them and overseeing things. She had never eaten pork but had seen pigs run, and also knew many taboos after getting pregnant, and that there was no need to be so overly cautious.

"These trivial matters cannot compare to A Ying's hardship of bearing children for me."

Gu Ying looked up at the man's serious and ardent eyes, and her heart stirred slightly.

This was probably the first time she had heard such cherishing words for women from a man, whether it was Jiang Yin or others, they all took it for granted that women should bear offspring for men, and some even chose to save the child at the cost of the mother's life when it came to life and death during childbirth.

Only the Crown Prince never treated her as a childbearing tool, but loved her wholeheartedly.

Her heart warmed. She clutched his fingers and obediently started walking with her head down.

More activity is good after all. This way, when she goes into labor, the delivery will go more smoothly.

Before going to bed at night, Gu Ying told Zhao Changdu about Granny Sun.

Zhao Changdu held the little girl in his arms and said, "You can take care of this matter. Recently, the imperial court has been unstable. Prince Shu has provoked Prince Duan several times. Two of Prince Duan's confidants were demoted in a row, and Prince Duan has become a little impatient. I estimate I will be quite busy these days. A Ying doesn't have to wait for me to come back for meals at night, just eat on time yourself."

Speaking of Prince Duan, Gu Ying thought of Ning Si, so she asked, "Prince Duan is usually very patient. What happened?"

Zhao Changdu said, "Probably because of Ning Si."

"Ah?" Gu Ying sat up immediately, "Don't tell me Prince Duan doesn't want to break off the engagement with the Ning family?"

"Ning Si's matter with Zhou Yan angered him. He had his people bring Ning Si into the Royal Palace, and still hasn't let her out until now."

"This..." Worry appeared on Gu Ying's face.

Zhao Changdu reassured her, "Don't worry, no matter how irrational he becomes, he won't hurt Ning Si."

Gu Ying said worriedly, "I'm afraid Sister Si's matter will cause some trouble. After all, for a young lady of a prominent family in Bianjing to get pregnant out of wedlock is simply disastrous. If someone with malicious intentions exposes this, Sister Si won't be able to live anymore... Especially that maid Cai Xi who came to Yueyang with her this time, she seems to know something."

Zhao Changdu said coldly, "I had someone investigate the matter of her out-of-wedlock pregnancy, but nothing was found out. Who exactly violated her?"

Gu Ying pursed her lips and said solemnly, "If you have to name someone, only Zhao Changxing gave her a hypnotic drug at Qingyun Temple last time... But Zhao Changxing didn't touch her. Qing Yun was by Sister Si's side the whole time. I also checked her when I arrived that day, her clothes were all intact..."

She suddenly had a bold guess, "That's right, Adu, could Ning Si's child be Prince Duan's?"

Zhao Changdu smiled and shook his head, "No, Li Hao has a weak physique and is aloof and incorruptible. Ning Si was already devoted to him, and they were engaged. He wouldn't be muddled enough to touch her before their grand wedding."

"What if?"

"Impossible."

Gu Ying sighed, "I'm just making a bold guess. After all, most men think with their lower body."

Zhao Changdu's eyes were deep, and he didn't speak upon hearing this. After reassuring her for a while, looking at the pink and delicate skin of the little girl in the candlelight, the beastly desire in his heart stirred slightly.

Whether Li Hao was as aloof and incorruptible as he claimed, Zhao Changdu didn't know.

But he seemed to be losing more and more control. He simply turned over and pressed her under him, taking her sweet and soft lips, breathing heavily and lingering for a long time.

These days, Gu Ying already understood his temperament. Anyway, before she gave birth, Adu would never really let his lust take over and harm her, so she generously accepted his kisses.

His kisses were lingering and gentle.

She clutched the bedding tightly, feeling surges of heat rising in her body.

But the man still wouldn't let her off, his big hands roamed all over her body, stirring up scorching heat.

She was so shy her little face turned crimson. In the hazy canopy, the man was brimming with charm.

He leaned over to nibble her earlobe, and chuckled, "What's so great about that aloof and incorruptible monk? My A Ying is sweet and sexy."

Gu Ying's breathing was unsteady, and she whispered, "Adu, I feel a little uncomfortable..."

Zhao Changdu exhaled and asked, "Where does it feel uncomfortable?"

Gu Ying's cheeks turned fiery red, her eyes glittering, too shy to say it. This man, so proper and righteous out of bed, how could he say such indecent things in bed?

Gu Ying felt a little wronged, "Let's stop playing..."

She pulled the quilt over herself, trying to cover her body.

Seeing her slightly swollen red lips, Zhao Changdu smiled amusedly, "Don't be angry A Ying, I won't tease you anymore. Come here."

In the dim room, there was only a weak bean lamp lit inside the gauzy canopy on the bed. Gu Ying's entire being seemed to be shrouded in mist, her snow-white skin glossy and shimmering, exuding an alluring luster. Her blurry eyes lost focus.

After a long time, the man held her tightly in his arms, his gaze was deep, his voice lingering and husky, "Just wait a little longer, until Nian is born."
