Actually, Su Muwei’s trick wasn’t sophisticated at all. She pretended that she was dying, but how could she die so easily?

  Hadn’t she lasted five years without dying?

  “I won’t let him have the baby. It’s better to not give birth to the baby than to let him have it.” Stubbornness emerged on Qian’er’s face. “However, he seems to think that the baby isn’t his, and doesn’t seem as concerned about it now. He even said that he would get me pregnant again if I lost the baby.”


  “Who does he think he is?” Gu Bailu cursed angrily. “Good thing Su Muwei is around to torture this monstrous man.”


  “How did your negotiation with Su Muwei go today?” asked Qian’er curiously.

  “it’s all settled. That woman considers her own life more important than anything else. There’s no reason for her to refuse me. She’ll arrange for us to leave after she recovers.”


  Qian’er frowned slightly. “Do we have a way to cure her?”


  Gu Bailu chuckled. “Of course not. However, I have a way to make her think that she’s cured. I would never cure her even if I could.”


  Qian’er’s expression relaxed. “I don’t want her to get well either.”


  Gu Bailu patted the back of her hand comfortingly. “That’s the right attitude. Don’t be like those holy mothers who repay other people’s wrongdoings with kindness.”


  Qian’er was confused. “What is a holy mother?”


  “People who think that whoever takes advantage of them have good reasons to do so, and that they shouldn’t blame them. They’re idiots.”


  Qian’er smiled. “I may be weak, but I’m not an idiot.”


  “I know. Lulu knows that Qianqian is the smartest……” Gu Bailu mimicked Su Muwei and stuck out her tongue. She almost threw up.

  Damn that slag Su Muwei……

  It wasn’t easy to copy her.

  Qian’er burst out laughing. “You can try that on Prince Zi. It might be surprisingly effective.”


  Gu Bailu pouted. “He would definitely think that something is wrong with my head.”


  “Hahaha……” Qian’er laughed. “You really don’t know how lucky you are. Prince Zi might be disgusted at first, but he would still treat you well. He might avoid you for a bit, but still hold you in his heart.”


  Gu Bailu looked at her, lost for words. “Do you really think that Feng Qingtian is that great?”


  Qian’er nodded. “Of course. I’ve never seen a man as devoted as him. You are the only thing in his eyes. I can’t even see that kind of devotion in Lu Fenying for Su Muwei.”


  She had always thought that Feng Qingtian really pampered Gu Bailu, not in an irrational way like Lu Fenying, but by showing that he would be there for her even if he knew she was at fault.

  “But he loves my baby even more.” Gu Bailu heaved a sigh.

  Qian’er shook her head. “Loving your baby is part of loving you. He was reluctant to let go of the baby because he feared that you might be sad. Pretend that you don’t want the baby, and you’ll know whether he loves it or not.”


  “I already tested it by asking him whether he would choose me or the baby; he hesitated and didn’t give a definite answer.”


  Qian’er smiled. “It’s true that even the smartest person can be foolish sometimes. How can he give a definite answer? If you’re dead, so is the baby. Does he really need to answer that question?”


  “But if the baby stays, I’ll die when I give birth to it. He didn’t make a decision back then, but let me decide. He knew that I would choose the baby.”


  “He was only worried that you would be sad, and that you would hate him if he was the one to decide, which would affect your relationship. He was scared…… Prince Zi is really scared of losing you. I can feel it.”
