Chapter 74.1

No!

He refused.

Not to mention how shameful the process of using those jades was, Wen Chi felt sick just imagining having to shove such thick jades up his ass.

“I promise to practice martial arts, but…” Wen Chi opened his almond-shaped eyes wide, looked at Shi Ye pitifully and then put forward the condition anxiously, “I don’t want this punishment method, so can I change the punishment method?”

Shi Ye twitched the corner of his mouth.

Wen Chi’s eyes lit up, thinking there was a chance.

The next moment, Shi Ye resolutely refused: “No.”

Wen Chi was like an eggplant beaten by frost.

“But if you insist so much, I’m not an unreasonable person.” Shi Ye suddenly changed his words, pulled Wen Chi into his arms and stretched out his hand to caress Wen Chi’s cheek, “How about two at a time? “

Wen Chi: “…”

Wen Chi, who had finally raised his hopes, became completely desperate.

He knew it!

This dog prince is not a good thing at all!

Not only can the dog not spit out ivory but he was always teasing him all day long.

Speaking of which, this dog prince ordered Xiao Shuanzi to give these jades to him. No matter whether he knew about it or not, he was the instigator so why was he the one who suffered in the end?

The more Wen Chi thought about it, the more he felt that Shi Ye should have punished himself by eating the jade, instead of using it on him.

However, he was afraid, he was afraid of death and he didn’t want to be killed by Shi Ye like those kidnappers. So those words spun around on the tip of his tongue and finally he swallowed them back into his stomach silently.

He frowned, his whole face wrinkled like a bitter gourd and he shook his head slightly: “No, no… two is too much…” There’s no way to fit it in.

“Then one.”

“Not even one …….”

As soon as the words fell, the hand pinching Wen Chi’s cheek suddenly became stronger.

Shi Ye’s fingertips were already cold but at this moment, it was as if an ice cube soaked in water was stuck to Wen Chi’s cheek. It was so cold that Wen Chi shivered unconsciously and his shaking head quickly stopped.

He raised his head and met Shi Ye’s eyes and saw that Shi Ye was looking at him a little coldly: “Bengong is not asking for your opinion.”

Wen Chi shrank from Shi Ye’s look, knowing that he had repeatedly jumped across Shi Ye’s bottom line too many times and seeing that Shi Ye’s patience was running out, he dared not refuse any further.

He was hesitant to agree to it and suddenly he got a flash of inspiration.

“Your Royal Highness, I’m afraid this is really not good.” Wen Chi touched his abdomen and started babbling in a serious manner, “Haven’t you noticed? I’ve been vomiting a lot lately, I think I might be ……”

pregnant.

It’s a pity that this word is a bit difficult to say. They stuck in Wen Chi’s throat and he couldn’t  squeeze it out no matter what, so he can only look at Shi Ye with expectant eyes, hoping that Shi Ye can understand what he means from his eyes. 

According to Wen Chi’s observation, Shi Ye did not bring many people to Jinzhou. Except for Zuo Zhi who was always around him, there were only a few maid servants who served them in daily life. Zuo Zhi and those maidservants were all unmarried girls, so they should not know much about pregnancy.

After he gets through this period of time, he will tell Shi Ye that the matter of pregnancy is just because he has no experience so he was mistaken.

At that time, he can not only avoid martial arts but also avoid these jades, wouldn’t it be the best of both worlds?

Wen Chi thought happily.

However, Shi Ye’s face was indifferent and he didn’t seem to understand what he meant: “What might you be?”

Wen Chi: “…”

Shi Ye’s gaze on his face moved down slowly and stopped on his hand covering his stomach. Shi Ye thought for a while before saying, “Did you eat something wrong?”

Wen Chi tried his best to swallow the mouthful of blood that he almost vomited out. for the sake of the next few days of relaxation, he instantly determined and brazenly gritted his teeth, “I might be pregnant, you’re going to be a father.”

Shi Ye: “…”

Although Shi Ye managed his expression well, Wen Chi still caught the twitch of his mouth.

Shi Ye’s eyes on Wen Chi gradually became incredulous and it was like he had seen a ghost. He stared at Wen Chi up and down a few times and his eyes finally stopped at Wen Chi’s abdomen.

Recently, Wen Chi ate a lot and gained weight visibly to the naked eye but he still looked very thin overall and his abdomen covered by the black robe did not show any protrusion.

Shi Ye’s gaze was fixed on Wen Chi’s abdomen for a long time.

Wen Chi lied and he was already guilty of a crime. Now that Shi Ye had been watching him for a long time, he couldn’t help thinking about it—what if Shi Ye guessed that he was lying to avoid martial arts? It would be fine if you tell other lies, but it is about the heirs, which sounds very serious…

What should he do?

He regretted lying.

Is it too late for him to take back those words now?
