"Do you know why I came here today?"
"N-no… I don't know." Qi Yue said nervously.
Nangong Yaoling's gaze fell on her stomach, which was bulging under the arms she clutched tightly around it.
As if something came to mind, for some reason a flash of complex pain swept through his eyes.
If the child he had with Xiaonuan were still here, it would be quite big by now.

Nangong Yaoling's gaze swept to Qin Yi standing to the side.
Qin Yi hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Miss Qi Yue, the Crown Prince came today to ask you about the child in your belly."
Qi Yue's whole body trembled.
She stared wide‑eyed at Qin Yi.
"Miss Qi Yue, as far as I know, you haven't had a boyfriend all this time. How did you end up pregnant? You should know that premarital pregnancy has a huge impact on a girl's reputation."
Qi Yue nervously shrank back a little.
"I…I…" In her head, she was thinking of what Liang Shaochen had said.
