Chapter 193: Deceiving Uncle Sheng (92)

Sheng Qianmo looked at her fair and delicate skin, before burying his head in her neck. His lips pressed against her skin. She felt the hot breath that carried the fragrance of wine.

“Is it not broken?” he said in a firm tone.

The day the empress was buried in the Imperial Mausoleum, Wen Zhigu was unable to go.

After all, she wasn’t allowed to visit such a place.

She hadn’t thought the emperor would bury the empress in the Imperial Mausoleum. If she’d been buried elsewhere, Zhigu could’ve visited her dead mother’s grave any time. Since the emperor hadn’t softened his heart for the empress once she’d been convicted for treason, Zhigu didn’t dare reveal her presence.

So she went to the forest outside the city and burned some joss paper for her mother.

“Drop out of school.”

Ji Xubai was leaning against the tree and looking at her as she prayed while kneeling on the ground.

Wen Zhigu took a deep breath, stood up from the ground, and turned to leave.

Ji Xubai stretched out his arm lazily and pulled her into his arms. He stroked her lower abdomen with his big hand, then looked down at her and said, “In the following months you’ll get bigger. Everyone at the academy will find out.”

Wen Zhigu looked at him coldly and said, “Wasn’t Master Ji afraid of being found out?”

Ji Xubai smiled gently and lifted her chin with his finger.

“I have nothing to be afraid of. I’m just worried about you. Don’t you get embarrassed easily? After being bullied by me in the academy, you would blush. Now that you have my child, why would I be afraid?”

Wen Zhigu’s looked at him indifferently and was just about to push his hand away when Ji Xubai’s hand clenched onto her. His tone was still flat while hurting her, as he said, “I don’t want to do anything to you because you are pregnant with my child, but this doesn’t mean that you can be presumptuous in front of me. You can disobey me again, but don’t blame me when I have to kill your brother.”

A sudden pain erupted in her temples, causing tears to flow. She screamed and lashed out at him.

“If you touch him, I’ll kill your child.”

Ji Xubai’s face contorted. He stared at her for a long time without speaking. Zhigu was scared silent by the look in his eyes. She knew she’d enraged him. She recalled the last time he’d been this furious. He’d spent three days making her suffer with torturous acts, the least of it forcing her. Zhigu shuddered.

However, Ji Xubai’s reaction was unexpected.

After a long time, he suddenly let go of her. His fire in his eyes slowly died down, and he even put on a faint smile.

“Well, as long as you listen to me, I won’t touch a hair on his body.”

After saying this, Ji Xubai stopped twisting Wen Zhigu’s hand. She gasped and nearly fell down, but he caught her mid-fall.

“All right, behave yourself. I’ll take you to the Imperial Mausoleum to see your mother later.”

His tone was gentle, as if he were coaxing a beloved lover.

Being held by Ji Xubai in his arms, Wen Zhigu seemed to have been hung up again on the burning grill again. She suffered a new injury behind her back. When she was held by him, it was even painful and even difficult to breathe.

But his actions were cruel. Wen Zhigu had a new injury on her back, and she found it difficult to breathe, because the way he held her aggravated that injury.

She gritted her teeth and was desperate as hell.

But she knew she had no choice and did what she was told.
