This scholar is a bit cruel

Chapter 287 Pregnancy

As evening approached, the sky was overcast.

When Luo Zijun limped back to the Bai residence, snowflakes suddenly began to fall from the sky.

There are still two weeks until the Chinese New Year.

At this time of year, the entire city is usually filled with a lively and joyous atmosphere.

But now, it's all quiet.

Although the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms has not yet reached Daliang, the city's preparations for war have already caused widespread panic. The elderly, weak, sick, and disabled in the city have been forcibly relocated, so the residents have no heart to celebrate the New Year.

In the Bai residence, only some colorful lanterns were hung up.

Luo Zijun returned to the courtyard, ate dinner, and then went to the backyard to cultivate.

His spiritual power is increasing day by day, which makes his physical cultivation twice as effective. Now he is getting closer and closer to breaking through to the seventh realm.

The seed of internal energy within the Dan Hai (energy center) has changed color and is stirring restlessly.

The power of techniques such as the Fiery Finger and the Dragon Roar and Tiger Howl Fist has naturally been enhanced to a considerable extent.

"Shh!"

Soon, the sound of boxing practice came from the backyard.

As night quietly fell, the snowflakes fell more and more densely, silently and imperceptibly turning the entire city of Lin'an white.

Of course, not a single snowflake fell on the ground in the backyard.

Under Luo Zijun's scorching aura, the entire backyard felt like a steamer, and the snowflakes melted away before they even fell.

From the perspective of the divine soul, Luo Zijun was engulfed in raging flames, resembling a terrifying fire god of war. Streams of scorching blood and qi flames swirled around him, making the air in the entire courtyard seem scalding hot.

Those vengeful spirits and ghosts were terrified at the mere sight of them, and dared not approach them.

After two hours of intense training, I was drenched in sweat but didn't feel tired. Instead, I felt exhilarated and full of energy.

This is clearly the effect of a strong spirit.

Of course, besides this effect, there is another effect: having too much energy makes you feel uncomfortable.

It's especially uncomfortable when you're taking a medicinal bath to finish your practice.

So after the medicinal bath and the bath, Luo Zijun went into the two little girls' room and told them stories.

First, he told a few interesting stories, making the two of them laugh. Then he told a few ghost stories, which scared them so much that they trembled.

At this moment, Luo Zijun suddenly blew out the oil lamp on the table and said, "You all go to sleep, I'm leaving."

The two young maids hurriedly grabbed his arms and hugged his legs, pleading in tearful voices, "Young master, don't go, we're scared..."

As a result, Luo Zijun was "forced" to stay.

The oil lamp on the table was relit.

The dim light couldn't illuminate the entire room, but it could reflect the shadows of kissing and undressing on the curtains.

The room became quiet.

Of course, there was no more talking, but some other sounds could be faintly heard.

Outside the window, snowflakes continued to fall silently.

As the eastern sky began to lighten, the entire courtyard was covered in white snow. Looking around, the rooftops, corridors, front yards, and backyards were all wet and white.

The few small flowers blooming in the courtyard were also covered by the thick snow, their stamens hidden and their stems bent over.

"Woo..."

The cold wind howled, and all things fell silent.

In a study in Yaohua Palace, the light that had been on all night was finally turned off.

The queen put away the memorials, went into the inner room, and lay down on the bed.

Although a heater was burning in the room, and warmth filled the entire space, she still hugged her blanket tightly, sighed softly, and murmured to herself, "On such a cold day, if only I could have him beneath me to warm me up, but alas... he belongs to that woman now..."

at the same time.

Bai Mansion, Snowfall Residence.

While Bai Meixue was fast asleep, she suddenly entered a dream.

In a deep mountain, covered in snow, a waterfall cascades down, and a giant white python slowly swims in the pool below the waterfall.

Then, the white python transformed into a woman.

The woman, naked and with long, flowing black hair, slowly rose from the pool, revealing her snow-white skin and a familiar and beautiful face.

But on that face, there was a pair of scarlet and eerie eyes, which were now staring at her coldly.

"It's time to come back..."

"Since you're not coming back, then I'll come find you..."

"You are mine, and I am yours. No one can separate us..."

The woman's scarlet pupils, like two vortexes, began to slowly rotate, and Bai Meixue walked towards her against her will.

As she got closer, the woman's head suddenly transformed into a ferocious python's head, which opened its massive maw and lunged at her!

Bai Meixue suddenly woke up and sat up in bed.

In the darkness, she breathed heavily, sweat beaded on her forehead, her chest heaved violently, and the fear in her pupils seemed to swirl like two vortexes.

"Miss, what's wrong? Did you have another nightmare?"

Fenfen came in from the outer room, parted the beaded curtain, and came to the bedside.

Bai Meixue breathed softly, and after a moment of silence, she suddenly said, "Go and call Luo Zijun over."

"Huh?" Pinky was taken aback, glanced at the sky outside the window, and said, "Miss, but now..."

"Go."

"Oh."

Without saying anything more, Fenfen left the room immediately.

Bai Meixue remained in a daze on the bed for a while before lifting the covers, getting out of bed, and coming to the dressing table. She slowly sat down and looked at herself in the bronze mirror.

The house next door.

As Luo Zijun was sleeping soundly with two naked bodies in her arms, she suddenly opened her eyes and looked out at the dark night outside the window.

Light footsteps could be heard in the courtyard.

Then, the footsteps went up the corridor, to the window of the room opposite, and began to knock gently on the window.

"Young master... young master..."

A soft, pink voice came from inside.

Luo Zijun was puzzled, so she quietly got out of bed, quickly put on her clothes, and then gently pushed open the window and climbed out.

The girl must have something important to tell him at this hour.

It can't be that he can't sleep and we need to let him sleep, right?
While Fenfen was knocking on the window next door, she suddenly heard a noise, turned around, and saw him climbing out of the window of Xiaohuan and Zhiyuan's room.

The two stared at each other.

The air was quiet for a few seconds.

Luo Zijun said, "What? Can't sleep in the middle of the night? Want to come over and let the son-in-law sleep with you?"

Pinky immediately snorted and said, "Miss is looking for you!"

After saying that, he stormed down the corridor, opened the small door, and left through it.

"The young lady is looking for me?"

Luo Zijun was taken aback by his words, feeling puzzled. This was the first time he had been approached at this time.

He didn't dare to delay and immediately went through the small door.

Pinky was standing at the door, sulking. When she saw him coming, she immediately turned her little face away and looked elsewhere: "Hmph!"

This girl just saw him come out of Xiao Huan and Zhi Yuan's room; she's probably jealous.

As Luo Zijun passed by her, she whispered, "Tomorrow night, you go to see the young master tomorrow night, and he'll play with you again. I'm really short of money tonight."

Fenfen blushed instantly and turned away.

Luo Zijun entered the room and saw an oil lamp lit inside. Miss Bai seemed to be sitting in front of the dressing mirror in the inner room, lost in thought.

The room was warm and cozy, with a thick carpet on the floor.

Luo Zijun took off her shoes and walked over. When she reached the beaded curtain, she stopped and said, "Miss, is there something you need from me so late?"

Bai Meixue sat quietly in front of the dressing mirror, motionless, seemingly lost in thought or daydreaming. After a long silence, she finally said, "Come in."

Luo Zijun parted the beaded curtain and went inside.

Only then did they realize that Miss Bai was still wearing a thin, soft silk nightgown, her long, black hair cascading down her back, with some messy strands at her temples. Underneath the dress, a pair of snow-white little feet were faintly visible in the dim light, clearly indicating that she had just gotten out of bed.

"Is the young lady having another nightmare?"

That's the only reason, Luo Zijun thought to herself.

Bai Meixue paused for a moment, then turned her face away, looking at him and revealing a side of her exquisitely beautiful face. She whispered, "Luo Zijun, if one day..."

She paused for a moment, stared at him for a while, and then continued, "If one day, a bad guy comes to arrest me, what will you do?"

Luo Zijun said, "Of course I'll protect Miss. Miss is my wife. If anyone dares to try and take her, I'll fight them to the death!"

Bai Meixue said, "What if that person is very powerful, and you can't beat them?"

Luo Zijun said, "I will still fight with all my might."

Bai Meixue's eyes flickered, and she stared at him for a while before saying, "You're lying. You never really consider me your wife. The person in the pharmacy is the wife in your heart, isn't she?"

Luo Zijun said, "Of course not. Miss is my wife whom I formally married. In my heart, Miss is my true wife."

Bai Meixue gave a soft hum, a self-deprecating smile playing on her lips, and then said, "If that bad guy wants to kill me and her, but you can only save one of them, who would you save?"

Luo Zijun's lips twitched, and she thought to herself, "Isn't this the kind of trope where you save someone if two family members fall into the water?"

Luo Zijun said, "Of course, I will save my wife first."

Bai Meixue, however, was not fooled and asked again, "Who is your wife?"

Luo Zijun said, "Of course it's the eldest young lady."

Yes, my wife now is indeed you.

Bai Meixue seemed to see through his little scheme and said, "Are you planning to divorce me when the time is right?"

Luo Zijun's heart skipped a beat, and she said, "How could that be? I never thought of that. Miss has been kind to me, how could I be so ungrateful?"

Bai Meixue stared at him silently for a while, then said, "I seem to remember something. I have a feeling that I might be kidnapped by bad guys soon."

Luo Zijun asked, "Who? What has Miss remembered?"

Bai Meixue did not answer, but stared at him for a while with a flickering gaze, and said, "There is only one way now to make that bad guy retreat without a fight."

Luo Zijun was completely confused and asked, "What method?"

Bai Meixue looked at him and said, "Find a way to get me pregnant."

Luo Zijun: "???"
