Chapter 243
“What?! Wait until after I give birth?!” Le Yao Yao’s mouth twitched . “My body is fine right now! Can’t we head down in a few days?”
However, Si Mu Han shook his head . “No, you’ve just woken up . Your body is still very weak . If we head down in the next few days, you might collapse from exhaustion . ”
Right now, her best bet was to lie to him so he would take her on a tour to the Capital . Once she is at the Capital, she could secretly run back to Yu’s residence . As long she had Yu by her side, she wasn’t afraid of anything .
So, Le Yao Yao made a pitiful expression and began to whine cutely, “Si Mu Hannnn, just take me down the mountain…pleaseeeee… . ”
Initially, she thought this method would be effective . Since Si Mu Han loved his dead wife so much, he obviously wouldn’t reject her request, right? However, Si Mu Han looked emotional and depressed .
“Xin’er, I’m your husband!”
“Uh…”
Oh yeah, she shouldn’t call him by his name . But she couldn’t call him husband either!?!?! Although it was merely a title, it was a big deal to her .
While Le Yao Yao was hesitating, Si Mu Han appeared more distressed . “Xin’er, is it really that hard to call me ‘husband’?”
“Umm…” Le Yao Yao began to stutter . But she was afraid to upset Si Mu Han . If he refused her bring her down because of this, that would be bad . So, she awkwardly uttered, “H-husband…”
“Haha! Xin’er finally called me husband! I’m so happy!!”
“So does that mean we can head down the mountain?!”
He should be happy she acknowledged him as ‘husband’ . So, it should be ok to make this request now, right?
Unexpectedly, Si Mu Han still refused . “No!”
“What?! Y-you…!” Le Yao Yao was so mad that her eyes were bulging . Damn this man!
If he wasn’t going to take her down, then he was wasting her time! There was no point in begging anymore . So, without thinking, Le Yao Yao flung off Si Mu Han’s hand and stormed out of the house by herself .
It was all icy and silvery outside . Everywhere around her looked unfamiliar . The world was so big, yet there wasn’t a place for her .
However, the furious Le Yao Yao didn’t care as she continued walking aimlessly . At this moment, Le Yao Yao sensed someone watching her . The person’s glare was as sharp as knives!
So, Le Yao Yao trembled and lifted her pupils . She looked around but couldn’t see anyone .
Right now, she was standing in front of a forest . Behind her were houses but there was no visible person . Was she hallucinating?
Suddenly, there was a fuzzy ball near where she was . Le Yao Yao rubbed her eyes to focus and realized the fuzzy animal didn’t notice her presence . It was a baby fox and it was running around!
Le Yao Yao’s eyes lit up . Ever since she was little, she loved animals . She had seen many cats and dogs, but she had never seen a fox before!
It must be so fun to play with! While she was thinking, suddenly a figure in red flashed in front of her . Before Le Yao Yao knew what was happening, the fuzzy animal was placed in her arms .
“Ohhhh!” Le Yao Yao could feel the little fox squirming . She was faced with a pair of black, scared pupils .
“Ahhhh, so adorable!” Le Yao Yao squealed .
The baby fox was probably only a few days old . Its head was so small and its fur was very smooth . The fox had a pointy mouth and ears and a pair of big eyes . It was incredibly cute .
Le Yao Yao loved the fox the moment she saw it . It was love at first sight .
Si Mu Han was happy to see the joy on Le Yao Yao’s face . He smiled, “Xin’er, do you like it? Isn’t it cute?”
Since the baby fox was so young, it didn’t know the difference between good or evil . After Le Yao Yao gently stroked its fur, the fear in his eyes disappeared . Instead, it was now replaced by closed pupils . It liked being petted .
Seeing this, Si Mu Han was jealous . He wished he was the fox . He wanted Xin’er to gently pat him too .
However, he was more concerned with the fact that Le Yao Yao was ignoring him . “Xin’er, don’t be mad . I’m not taking you down the mountain because your body is still weak . I promise once your body is strong enough, I’ll take you down . Ok?”
“Humph! I don’t want to wait until after the child is born! Also, there’s nothing wrong with my body . I want to explore under the mountain!” Le Yao Yao firmly stated .
Si Mu Han sighed . “Alright, once you’re all better, I’ll take you down . ”
“Truly?!”
Le Yao Yao knew she had won so she was extremely happy on the inside . She smiled when Si Mu Han finally gave in .
“Xin’er, you’re so beautiful…”
Si Mu Han stepped forward and wrapped his arms around Le Yao Yao’s tiny waist . He began to lean down .
Le Yao Yao knew what he wanted to do, but she was trapped . She couldn’t push him away, so she lifted the baby fox to cover her face .
As a result, Si Mu Han ended up kissing the baby fox’s mouth instead . When Si Mu Han tasted fur, his eyes popped open and he was faced with the fox’s innocent round eyes . The baby fox licked its lips and smiled .
Le Yao Yao couldn’t help but snicker . “Ahahahaha!!”
“You!”
“Wifey, you’re terrible! No! I got taken advantage of by the fox! You need to compensate me!”
So now, Si Mu Han took the fox from Le Yao Yao and tried to kiss her . Obviously, Le Yao Yao wasn’t going to let him, so she began to run away .
Now, we have a woman and a man running on the silvery world . It was snowing, with the scent of wintersweet in the air . What a lovely sight .
But to someone else, it was blinding to the eye . After Le Yao Yao and Si Mu Han left, a woman dressed in red slowly appeared behind a tree . The woman was very beautiful with gorgeous features . The red dress on her made her look even more stunning . However, currently, the woman’s eyes were filled with anger and hatred . She stared at Le Yao Yao like she wanted to rip her apart .
Suddenly, Le Yao Yao trembled and stopped running .
“What’s wrong, Xin’er?”
Le Yao Yao tried to suppress the discomfort in her heart . She shook her head and said, “I’m fine . ”
“Really? You’re turning pale . Let me tell Qing Feng to send a physician in . ”
Si Mu Han was about to turn around, but Le Yao Yao stopped him . “I’m not that delicate . I’m just hungry . ”
Honestly, she wasn’t lying . She was actually hungry already! Pregnant women tend to get hungry a lot faster than regular people . After all, there were two to feed instead of one!
“Ohhh . I see . My baby is hungry . Daddy will go order something to eat!”
Le Yao Yao couldn’t help but think to herself .
If she hadn’t met Leng Jun Yu before Si Mu Han, would she have fallen for him instead?
But obviously, there was no answer .

After returning to Mu Xin Ge, dishes were already prepared and waiting for them on the table . Today, the kitchen prepared hot pot . It was the one with a spicy soup base .
On the table were many fresh raw items that were neatly cut into pieces . There were slices of beef, pork, fish, shrimp, crab, and all sorts of vegetables .
Le Yao Yao had to gulp down her drool .
“Xin’er, hurry and eat! This is your favourite food back then . You love to eat spicy!”
“Haha . Yes, I love spicy food!” Le Yao Yao admitted and then picked up the jade chopsticks . She quickly placed the items in the boiling pot . After a few seconds later, Le Yao Yao took put the meat and added some chili vinegar on it . “Mm, it tastes really good!”
Si Mu Han was pleased to see Le Yao Yao eating with such a great appetite . He looked like the happiest man in the world just watching her .
Eventually, they finished their meals and the dishes were replaced with a plate of fruits . Si Mu Han then turned to Le Yao Yao .
“Xin’er, there’s something I want you to see . ”
“Huh? What is it?”
Currently, Le Yao Yao was wiping her mouth and fingers with a warm wet napkin .
Si Mu Han didn’t say anything else . Then, he clapped his hands and a few people came in .
Since the light contrast was too much, for a moment, Le Yao Yao couldn’t see who they were . It seemed like two men was detaining another person though .
After they entered, the two men pressed the person down onto the ground . “To report to the Great Leader, we have brought the person that you want . ”
“Mm . Very good . ” Si Mu Han nodded .
At this moment ,Le Yao Yao stared at the person . Her eyes grew wide . The woman on the ground was wearing a vest made of fox fur, and a silk dress . However, her entire body was dirty and her hair was a mess . Her makeup was smear on her face and her complexion was poor . But Le Yao Yao recognized her right away .
“It’s you!? Nian Sulan!?!” she exclaimed .
