Early in the morning, news spread like wildfire that Huo Jin had led a group to forcibly break into the Chu family home to settle personal scores, demolish their house, cause trouble, and beat Sheng Kuan into a clinic.

Consort Yun added fuel to the fire, and once again accused Huo Jin in the palace.

The emperor didn't react much upon hearing this. He gently coaxed Consort Yun, "Yun'er, don't be angry. That's just how he is. If you let him suffer a loss without saying a word, that wouldn't be him!"

"But iris..."

"I know, I know. She was wronged, but she also benefited from the misfortune, didn't she?"

Xiao Jinzi never kills twice; she's done it this time, so she won't hold this matter against him again.

Your palace maid, on the contrary, managed to escape with her life.

This is all because of your status as a Noble Consort.

Besides, she really is with him, isn't she? They even have a child!

If it were him, he wouldn't be able to swallow this insult either.

Huo Jin, after all, lacked confidence. Thinking of this, the emperor smelled the refreshing fragrance of Huan Yi and once again pressed Consort Yun down beneath him.

He said smugly, "Yun'er, I'm so amazing, how come you haven't given me a son or daughter?"

The Ming emperors did not have many sons. Strictly speaking, there were few from the previous emperor onwards. Not to mention daughters, there were only two or three sons in each reign, to the point that sometimes there was no choice at all, and the successors were sometimes forced into the position.

So, although he also indulged in various activities, he still spent most of his time visiting his harem, but unfortunately, the results were only so-so.

Where he couldn't see, Yunyun rolled her eyes and complained:

You dog emperor, you've only been hanging chili peppers on a big tree for a short time, how dare you call yourself powerful?

Let's finish this painful task as soon as possible!

...

That evening at dinner, Chu Yuan was forced by her mother to eat an eggplant again.

Eating eggplant during the day, eating eggplant at night, I can't live like this anymore...

At night, just as she was about to sleep, Huo Jin, covered in the grime of the night, slipped into the covers.

The cold wind sent a shiver down her spine, and she pushed him away with disgust. "Where have you been? Why are you so late?"

Huo Jin chuckled softly, then took her soft hand in his and kissed it. "Yuan'er, did you miss me?"

Chu Yuan moved further in, "No, it's not that. I just felt like you were disturbing my sleep..."

Before she could finish speaking, the man was already on the bed, his arms around her waist, his hot breath escaping her neck, creating a contrasting stimulation with the coolness of his body, making her feel both numb and tingly.

Before we knew it, it was almost Chinese New Year. The weather was cold, and Chu Yuan's belly was quite big, so she was almost too lazy to go out.

As her belly grew bigger, rumors spread that she and Sheng Kuan were having an affair, but neither Huo Jin nor she chose to pay attention to them.

Let everyone keep misunderstanding.

It's all for the children.

Only the three members of the Chu family knew the truth, but they were unaware of Huo Jin's underhanded tactics and thought that Chu Yuan was simply reluctant to part with her child.

Strangely, ever since Sheng Kuan was beaten up last time, he has appeared at the Chu family less often, and he seems to have tacitly accepted the rumors. He remains calm and composed in the face of everyone's pointing fingers.

Even with each word spoken, there was a sense that this suggestion was being reinforced.

Chu Yuan strongly suspected that Huo Jin had done something behind the scenes.

But she had no evidence, so she didn't pursue the matter further.

Just then, the man smacked his lips again, leaving Chu Yuan speechless. "If you're going to eat, can you at least be a little quieter?"

Even if others can't hear it, the baby in her belly can!

It's really... tragic that her own father stole her food before she was even born.

Huo Jin seemed more aggrieved than anyone else, "You won't let me touch you, you won't let me eat you, so what am I supposed to do, just stand there and watch?"

Then her eyes lit up. "Yuan'er, I asked the doctor, and he said it's okay if the pregnancy is further along. Why don't we... give it a try?"

Chu Yuan glared at him, "Do you have some kind of misunderstanding about yourself?"

As she spoke, she pointed to the table. Chu's mother had somehow learned that the aroma of vegetables and fruits was good for the fetus, so every few days she would put a pot of them in Chu Yuan's room.

Now, in that basket of vegetables and fruits, there are bananas, apples, eggplants, tomatoes...

She glanced at Huo Jin, her words carrying a double meaning, "At most, that person is the kind of food monkeys like to eat, but you, even more than that other one... what do you say?"

Huo Jin glanced at it and nodded seriously, "Yuan'er's judgment is still the best..."

Then he added, "But Yuan'er, the ones I recently selected from the warehouse are all genuine and of high quality, just so you could get used to them. I feel like you're adapting quite well?"

It would have been better if this hadn't been mentioned, because as soon as it was brought up, Chu Yuan blushed unconsciously. Huo Jin was really something, both doting and flirtatious.

Even if he might not get her even once out of ten attempts, he would still take good care of her patiently, as if seeing her happy was enough for him.

Perhaps due to her constitution, her libido actually increased throughout her pregnancy, thanks to his indulgence...

As soon as he spoke, a surge of heat welled up in her chest, and then...

Huo Jin was stunned for a moment, then grinned mischievously, "Baby, you were so stubborn, but now you've given yourself away."

Chu Yuan felt utterly ashamed and buried her face in his large hands, "It's all your fault!"

Huo Jin coaxed her, gently blowing air into her ear like a feather, while using his hands to make the penetration even more spectacular and powerful, "Then, Yuan'er, do you want it or not?"

Chu Yuan nudged him with her knee and whimpered, "What do you think?"

Huo Jin chuckled inwardly, "Huh? Yuan'er, speak louder, I can't hear you!"

Chu Yuan gritted her teeth in hatred. She hated him to death. He was the one who turned her into this, and now he was mocking her!

But it's really painful, I really want to...

Feeling anxious and empty...

An addiction-like fascination...
