Tribulation

Chapter 20

On the wedding night, the groom could not handle the alcohol and left early. Although it was rude, because of the princess's protection, the guests could only smile and say: "A young couple's time together is naturally worth a thousand gold."

Jin Mi anxiously ordered the servants to help Run Yu back to the bedroom, but she was very puzzled: The bloodstain on Run Yu's clothes was so eye-catching, why were the onlookers still laughing and not worried?

Did she see wrongly?

She rubbed her eyes and saw that Run Yu's face was getting paler and paler. His hands were twisting the clothes on his waist, and the bulge on his lower abdomen was even more obvious.

After he was settled, Jin Mi was about to send someone to call the imperial physician, but she was stopped by Run Yu: "Don't go … don't make a fuss …"

She was uneasy, but she still obediently stayed alone.

The maidservants retreated and closed the door, thinking that the couple was going to make love.

Jin Mi did not care about anything else, Run Yu's consciousness was getting more and more dizzy. She was so anxious that she cried: "You lost a lot of blood, what should we do?"

Run Yu was curled up on the bed, barely breathing.

His abdomen was in pain, accompanied by bursts of heaviness. He knew what this meant.

He fumbled for the elixir left by the immortal in his sleeve, but he did not know if it had the effect of saving his life. He swallowed several pills in succession, but in the end, he could not take it anymore and collapsed.

Whether this child could be saved or not, he could only resign himself to fate.

At this time, his heart became clear.

"How could you … see that I lost blood …"

Just now, in the courtyard, everyone was watching, but only Jin Mi saw the bloodstain on his clothes.

The immortal's camouflage even covered these signs, but if that was the case, why was only Jin Mi able to see it?

And since she could see the bloodstain, presumably …

Although Jin Mi did not understand the meaning of his question, she suddenly remembered something. She took off the Beaded Hairpin and handed it to Run Yu.

"Last night, an immortal entered my dream and gave me this Beaded Hairpin. He also told me that you were an immortal who had descended to the mortal world to repay the debt of love. That's why you're different from ordinary people. Is this what you're asking about?"

Puzzled, Run Yu took the Beaded Hairpin and looked at it carefully. He saw that the pearls on the hairpin seemed to be organic. Just as he was about to try to open it, he heard Jin Mi let out a soft sound of surprise.

"What's wrong?" He looked up in confusion and saw Jin Mi staring at his waist with a look of surprise.

"I clearly … I just … I remember that you weren't like this just now. Why are the bloodstains gone?"

Run Yu lowered his head to look at the Beaded Hairpin and slowly put the Beaded Hairpin back into Jin Mi's hand. Sure enough, she jumped up.

"What's going on?

Your stomach … why did it suddenly change? "

Run Yu could not help but smile bitterly.

"I think that the immortal gave you this Beaded Hairpin that allowed you to see that I'm pregnant."

"What did you say?" Jin Mi was stunned for a moment.

There were too many meanings in this sentence. She really could not wrap her head around it.

Run Yu sighed silently.

He had not decided whether to tell Jin Mi the secret or not. He did not know how much he should tell her. However, that immortal gave her the Beaded Hairpin and allowed her to see that she was pregnant. He thought that it was God's will and that he should tell her everything behind the scenes.

"I said, I'm pregnant. Just now, that bloodstain … that bloodstain —" Before he could finish his sentence, a sharp pain suddenly rose in his stomach. It was not as fine as before, but it was like a heavy hammer that ruthlessly smashed into his body. It was so painful that he vomited a mouthful of blood and immediately lost consciousness.

"Brother Run Yu!"

Jin Mi rushed over in a panic, but her legs gave way and she fell to her knees in front of the bed. Her eyes were filled with blood. "What should I do …"

She subconsciously clenched the Beaded Hairpin tightly. The sharp end pierced her palm. Only then did she remember that the immortal had repeatedly warned that this Beaded Hairpin could save lives.

"Help!

Help, help … how can I save him? "

In a panic, Jin Mi stared at the Beaded Hairpin repeatedly. However, the more anxious she became, the more chaotic she became. For a long time, she did not see anything strange.

Run Yu gradually lost his color. His hand was ice-cold. It was obvious that his life was flowing away. However, she could only watch helplessly as the life-saving elixir was in her hand.

"Bastard immortal, deliberately mystifying things. He only told me half of the story and hid it so well!"

Jin Mi cried and cursed. She threw the Beaded Hairpin on the ground. However, the pearl fell from the head of the hairpin and rolled on the ground. It split into two halves, revealing the elixir hidden in it.

Jin Mi did not care about anything else. She immediately fed the elixir to Run Yu.

This was supposed to be the wedding night, but at this moment, it was a mess.

It was unknown whether the groom was dead or alive. He was unconscious. The bride was frightened and anxious.

After feeding him the elixir, Jin Mi did not know what else she could do.

Run Yu regained his breath, but there were no signs of him waking up.

She hugged her knees and sat down. Suddenly, she remembered Run Yu's words.

She hesitated and picked up the Beaded Hairpin. Sure enough, her eyes swayed slightly. She saw Run Yu's lower abdomen slightly bulging. The curve was like a new moon in her arms. It was warm and lovely.

Jin Mi could not help but reach out and gently stroke it. However, she felt something poke her palm and hurriedly withdrew her hand.

Runyu let out a soft moan and slowly woke up.

Jin Mi could not help but be overjoyed. "That immortal really did not lie to me!"

Looking at Jin Mi, Run Yu was stunned for a moment. He came back to his senses and held his lower abdomen with both hands.

There was a smile on his face, but for some reason, a tear fell from his eye.

"Don't cry."

Jin Mi had always been soft-hearted. She could not bear to see people cry, especially this person in front of her. "When you cry, I can't help but cry."

Run Yu smiled silently. "I really should not have made the princess sad.

Run Yu does not know how to repay the princess's kindness in this life. Naturally, I cannot make the princess cry. "

Jin Mi lowered her head. It was rare for her to act like a little girl. "You and I are husband and wife. There is no need to talk about repayment.

As long as you're fine, I'm fine, and the baby in your belly is fine, our family will be fine, right? "

"Princess …"

Run Yu's expression changed slightly. He did not know what to say for a moment.

Not to mention the fact that he was pregnant, just the fact that she was pregnant was not something to be proud of. He did not think that the princess would respond like this and accept the fact that she was pregnant so easily.

Jin Mi did not notice the change in his mind. She only said, "That immortal said that you came down to the mortal world to repay your debt. This baby must be related to your love debt, right?

Although before we married, you had … had a loving relationship with someone else. I should be angry, but it seems that I don't really care.

After all, you are married to me now. In the future, the person who will always be with you is me. The things in the past do not seem that important.

Moreover, this baby is tormenting you. When you woke up, you checked whether it was there or not. It must be very important.

Since I like you, I should also like the baby in your belly. "

Run Yu could not help but smile bitterly.

If Jin Mi was angry and scolded him for being pregnant, or even revealed this secret, his guilt towards Jin Mi would disappear and he could face it calmly. But Jin Mi was so pure and kind, it only made him feel more guilty.

"Run Yu … How fortunate to meet the princess."

Jin Mi sat closer to him and curiously asked, "Can I touch him again?"

After hesitating for a moment, Run Yu took her hand and placed it on the bulge. This was the first time he shared the existence of this child with someone else.

For a long time, he could only hide it and do his best to ignore it to avoid being seen through. But today, he could talk to Jin Mi without any scruples. This was a rare relief.

Feeling another movement under her palm, Jin Mi subconsciously retracted her hand, but couldn't help but touch it again. She saw that Run Yu's abdomen was slightly bulging, and she immediately frowned.

"Did I hurt you?"

Run Yu smiled and shook his head, "No, he is greeting you."

"Is that so?"

Jin Mi happily stroked him again. "When he's born, I'll be his mother and you'll be his father. We'll raise him together. When the time comes, he'll get married and have children. We'll play with our grandchildren. How wonderful would that be?"

Run Yu could not help but be startled. This scene was so familiar that it made him feel absent-minded.

He had imagined countless times that Xufeng would sit by his side and talk with him about this child's growth and their future. But they would never have a future.

"That is very good … very good." He nodded slightly and smiled in agreement. But he could not stop his tears from falling.

Jin Mi looked at him blankly. Suddenly, she gently hugged him.
