Xin Qian returned to the palace and was greeted by several soldiers as well as a lady-in-waiting.
"Her Majesty the queen has returned. Tell this to the king's Majesty!" call one of the soldiers.
"All right," the other soldier replied.
"Her Majesty the queen, where have you been? Everyone is looking for and worrying about your majesty" asked one of the ladies.
"Honey, I-" Xin Qian's remark suddenly interrupted.
"Why do you have to go back to the palace?" jiang Li asked tightly.
"What do you mean?" Xin Qian asked back.
"You always leave without asking my permission, no matter where you're going. You never told me that."
"Then what's the problem?"
"You're still asking what's the problem? You're my wife and everything you do has to get my approval."
"I am the queen of this palace, I also have freedom in living my life."
"But I don't like it if you leave this palace without telling me. Especially if you go with that stupid master?"
"Who do you mean?"
"I mean Zhang Pei. I really don't like it when you go with him. I don't want to see you close to another man, because you're mine."
"I think the king's majesty really loves the queen now" whispered one lady-in-waiting.
"You're right. Just look at the attitude of the king who was too worried if the queen left this palace with master Zhang Pei," replied the other lady.
"I don't want to talk about that right now. I want to go to my room now," Xin Qian went through Jiang Li.
Jiang Li pulled Xin Qian's arm. "I want you to promise me."
"Promise for what?"
"Promise me that you won't leave this palace before you ask my permission."
"I won't do it!"
Xin Qian removed her arm from Jiang Li's grasp then went towards her room.
"He's really stubborn," murmured Jiang Li.
After Xin Qian reached the room, suddenly king Wang Shu approached her with a happy face.
"Xin Qian, how are you and the baby in your womb?"
"Th-you?"
"Why do you look so anxious after seeing me, Xin Qian?"
"What are you doing here?"
"Xin Qian, why are you so sniffy on me? I'm the biological father of your husband, that means I'm your father too. So you have to be respectful to me."
"How can I be respectful to the man who killed my father?"
"Oww, so you know that? Who told you?"
"It doesn't matter who I know from. But until any time I won't be respectful to you."
"Calm down, Xin Qian! Don't raise your tone to Ayahanda! I don't like that."
"I just want to tell you something."
"I won't let your life be as happy as you want it to be, Xin Qian. And I will not let the baby in your womb be born into this world. Because if that baby were to be born into this world, Jiang Li would lose his throne as well as his power in this land."
"You are a very cruel man. You don't even deserve to be called a father."
"Xin Qian!!" yelled Jiang Li.
"How dare you say that my father was a cruel man?"
"He is a cruel man. He killed my father, he also said that he would not let this baby in my womb be born."
"Ayahanda, did Father really say that?"
"Ayahanda cannot accept this treatment. Ayahanda had suffered enough for King Arlo, and now her biological daughter wanted to make Ayahanda feel pain again."
Wang Shu then left the two of them.
"You see that? I'm trying to be nice to you, but you're being bad to her."
"Everything he says is a lie. He was only being nice when he was in front of you, Jiang Li."
"Player ...."
"You slapped me?"
"I don't like it if you're being disrespectful to my father, Xin Qian. You have to respect him like you respect your father."
"But he's not my father, he hates me too much. I won't respect him. Even if you force me, I won't talk to you anymore!"
Xin Qian then walked into the room and was followed by Jiang Li. Jiang Li withdrew Xin Qian's hand, then scolded her back.
"You can't behave like that. Come with me and apologize to my father," Jiang Li looked at Xin Qian with an angry face.
"I won't do it!" exclaim Xin Qian.
"Xin Qian, come with me!" snapped Jiang Li while forcefully pulling Xin Qian's hand.
"I don't want to, aahh .. My stomach hurts so much."
"Xin Qian, what happened to you?"
"Jiang Li, my stomach hurts a lot ...."
Jiang Li then took Xin Qian to the bed and sat her down. Jiang Li looked at Xin Qian's fast-moving stomach.
"The baby was moving inside her stomach, it must have been very painful," she said.
Jiang Li then stroked Xin Qian's stomach.
"Don't be naughty in Mom's belly huh. My mom is in a lot of pain right now" he said.
Then Jiang Li kissed Xin Qian's stomach a few times, and miraculously the pain disappeared.
"He has relieved my pain," inner Xin Qian.
"Is it still painful now?"
"No."
"I'm sorry if I slapped and scolded you. But I just want you to be nice to Father, because Father has also been kind to you."
"He's never been a little kind to me, how can you ask me to be nice to him?"
"Enough, Xin Qian! You-"
Jiang Li's words suddenly came to a halt as she saw Xin Qian close both her eyes.
"I'm sorry," Jiang Li hugged Xin Qian's body very tightly.
"Why does your embrace feel so warm, Jiang Li? You make me feel so comfortable when you hold me. But I can't trust you, you can pretend to love me so you can break my heart."
"Don't move, Xin Qian! I want to hold you like this. I want to spend all my time with you."
"After the baby in your womb is born, we will be a very happy king and queen."
Zhang Pei who was passing in front of the room deliberately stopped because he saw Jiang Li was hugging Xin Qian.
Zhang Pei immediately clenched his hands and his face turned furious.
"How dare he hug my woman?"
Zhang Pei was about to enter to stop Jiang Li, but from behind there was someone pulling him.
"What do you want to do? You're going to fight Jiang Li in front of the queen?" ask Ji Nian.
"What are you blocking me for?"
"Zhang Pei, I still love the queen. But I won't do anything stupid like you want to do that."
Ji Nian then left Zhang Pei with a smile.
