Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 1185

Chapter 1185: Chapter 1179: Soon Within Reach

"Got it, Eldest Young Lady!" Bai Jinzhao looked up at her elder sister and answered first.

"Go ahead!" Bai Qingyan straightened up, tidied her cloak, and said with a smile.

"Eldest Young Lady, rest well!" Bai Jinhua held Bai Jinse’s hand and spoke to Bai Qingyan, "I heard there’s a grove of red plum blossoms at Yecheng Pass. When Eldest Young Lady wakes up tomorrow, we three will pick them and bring them back for you!"

Bai Qingyan nodded: "Alright..."

Watching her three younger sisters leave, Wei Zhong approached with a smile and said, "Your Majesty, you should rest as well."

Bai Qingyan nodded, responding with a smile: "Eunuch Wei, you’ve had a hard time, you should rest too!"

Wei Zhong was momentarily stunned, hurriedly replying, "Your Majesty need not worry, this old servant is... not tired, still able to serve Your Majesty for the night."

"Rest well! Only by resting well can you protect me..." Bai Qingyan turned to look at Wei Zhong, gently caressing her abdomen, "The safety of our journey back to Dadu City with the child is entrusted to Eunuch Wei!"

Wei Zhong was taken aback, but saw Bai Qingyan smile and turn to return inside. Wei Zhong hurriedly stepped forward to lift the curtain for Bai Qingyan: "Your Majesty’s bed is already warm, and the hot water has been sent in as well. Shortly, this old servant will call someone to serve Your Majesty."

"No need, I will do it myself."

Bai Qingyan nodded and stepped into the room, took off her fox fur cloak and hung it on the screen, washed her face with hot water, grasped the cuffs in her hand, sat on the soft couch, gently stroking the two small tigers Xiao Rongyan had carved for the child, her expression full of warmth.

In the rest of her life, Bai Qingyan’s greatest wish was for her family and loved ones to be safe... The smooth implementation of the new policies would be enough.

The window across from Bai Qingyan suddenly burst open, and Bai Qingyan looked up to see Xiao Rongyan leap in.

She widened her eyes, watching Xiao Rongyan enter from the window and then close it, asking him, "Why did you come over suddenly? Aren’t you discussing battle strategies with A Yu and the others?"

Xiao Rongyan brought a chill with him, did not approach Bai Qingyan; he took off his mask and undid his cloak, casually hanging it on the screen, stretched his hands to warm them over the brazier, and said with a smile, "Everything has been arranged by you already; there’s nothing much to discuss, just going through the motions."

Bai Qingyan watched the way Xiao Rongyan warmed his hands over the fire, picked up the overturned cup and poured a cup of hot tea for Xiao Rongyan, then pushed the teacup to the seat beside her as Xiao Rongyan walked over.

Xiao Rongyan didn’t sit; he rubbed his hands together, kneeled on one knee in front of Bai Qingyan, placed his hands on Bai Qingyan’s abdomen: "The child needs to get familiar with my voice first, otherwise... truly won’t know that I am the father."

Surprised when the child moved slightly, Xiao Rongyan looked up at Bai Qingyan with delight: "It moved!" 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

"Doctor Hong says it’s normal for the child to move frequently at this stage, but the child is very well-behaved... usually sleeps quietly when I’m busy!" Bai Qingyan said.

Xiao Rongyan placed his ear against Bai Qingyan’s abdomen, listening intently to the movements within.

He gently encircled Bai Qingyan’s waist with his arms, feeling deeply grateful to have met Bai Qingyan, thankful to heaven for giving him and Bai Qingyan a child, only Bai Qingyan and the child could soften his heart full of hostility and bloodshed, gradually making his heart as firm as a rock become tender.

"Tomorrow morning, I must leave..." Xiao Rongyan looked up at Bai Qingyan, "Kid, may I hold you and our child to sleep tonight?"
