"Let's not cook today, how about we go out to eat? What would you like to eat?" Zhan Zhao smiled at her. Since Mo Yan became pregnant, her appetite had become picky and strange. He was rarely home, so he wanted to accommodate her in these small ways.

"Eat out?" Her eyes sparkled. "Then I want to eat Liu's Crystal Pork Knuckle on Maxing Street. The broth poured over the rice is incredibly delicious."

“Alright, I’ll change my clothes and then we’ll go.” Zhan Zhao nodded, and then added casually, “On the way back, we’ll go to Mr. Gongsun’s house to apologize to him.”

"Huh?...Oh."

They specially ordered the crystal pork hock, but Mo Yan only poured the broth over her rice, leaving all the meat behind, and ate it with great relish. Zhan Zhao had no choice but to eat the pork hock meat that she wouldn't eat. No matter how delicious it was, it was still too much for one person to eat such a large plate by himself.

After eating three bowls of rice, Mo Yan finally stopped eating, paid the money, and took Zhan Zhao out of the shop, where they strolled slowly down the street.

Unfortunately, no matter how slowly she walked, she still eventually reached Gongsun Ce's door.

"Brother, perhaps Mr. Gongsun has already gone to bed. I think we should come again tomorrow." Mo Yanshen was really not good at apologizing, and he thought this matter would be a chore.

"It's only time to light the lamps, it's still early."

"But I'm sleepy!"

Zhan Zhao wouldn't budge an inch: "Then hurry up and go in, the sooner you go, the sooner you'll come back."

"..."

While Mo Yan was still thinking of an excuse, Zhan Zhao had already reached out and knocked on the door.

"Brother, you..." There was no time to stop her, and she had no choice but to accept her fate. She grabbed Zhan Zhao tightly, "You are not allowed to run away. You have to come in with me."

Zhan Zhao smiled slightly; in fact, he had always planned to stay with her.

"Madam Gongsun, Mr. Gongsun hasn't actually tried any of these remedies. I took the snake-repelling remedy and insisted on posting it at your residence to see if it would work. The rumors outside were just me talking nonsense without thinking." Mo Yan looked dejected, lowering her eyes as she continued, "You are a magnanimous person, please don't hold it against me. Just forgive me this time. In the next life, I will repay your kindness even if I have to be your servant..."

Zhan Zhao wanted to sigh more and more as he listened, but he didn't want to interrupt her.

Lady Gongsun, however, was sensible and quickly helped Mo Yan up, saying, "Madam Zhan, what's the big deal? It's not that serious. You're pregnant now, so you need to take good care of yourself."

Mo Yan looked up: "Aren't you angry with Mr. Gongsun anymore?"

Lady Gongsun chuckled: "Since it's nothing, I'm naturally not angry."

Mo Yan was relieved and smiled happily: "That's right. Don't worry, I used to be a constable, so I know a lot of people on the street, all sorts of people. If Mr. Gongsun really dares to set up another home outside without telling you, I'll definitely be able to find out."

"Cough cough..." Zhan Zhao coughed twice.

Mo Yan didn't dare to continue, and could only manage a dry laugh.

Gongsun Ce was at a loss for words, so to change the subject, he said, "Little Qi, you're almost four months along now, so you can probably hear the baby's heartbeat . How about I take your pulse?"

"OK."

Zhan Zhao was also very concerned. He pulled Mo Yan down to sit and waited for Gongsun Ce to take his pulse.

With his hand hovering over her pulse, Gongsun Ce did not pull it back for a long time, his expression growing increasingly solemn... Zhan Zhao, usually so composed, turned pale at this moment, wanting to ask a question but not daring to make a sound.

Mo Yan didn't understand what he meant and was also a little nervous, so she grabbed Zhan Zhao's sleeve with her other hand.

After finally waiting for Gongsun Ce to withdraw his hand, Zhan Zhao immediately asked, "Sir, how was it?"

Gongsun Ce then smiled and said, "Congratulations! This is truly a joyous occasion, but I'm afraid Xiao Qi is going to suffer a bit!"

Zhan Zhao and Mo Yan were both puzzled.

"It's a doubles match!"

Zhan Zhao froze, looking at Mo Yan with a mixture of joy and worry.
