"Hey, what's wrong?" Mo Qiang asked as she leaned closer to Yin Fu. "Is it the baby? Is he making trouble for you?"
She thought that he was feeling upset due to the baby.
His emotions have been all over the place after all once he got pregnant with their child.
"It is not the baby.. and I am not upset," he said stubbornly but even so, his pout only got even more defined.
"Alright," Mo Qiang drawled as she pulled her legs and sat cross-legged on Yin Fu's bed. She took his hands in hers and said, "How about I nurse your feet? They are swollen right?"
Yin Fu wanted to refuse but he pursed his lips and didn't say anything. Seeing that he was not speaking, Mo Qiang picked up the lavender oil which she had recently launched after Madam Sun sent a new flower to her to be purified.
With her fingers, she pulled the lid off and poured the tiniest amount on her palm. She rubbed her hands together and then started massaging Yin Fu's legs.
"You know," Mo Qiang began after a short period of silence. "I will not get upset if you tell me what's going on in your head," with her eyes closed, she pressed between his toes. "And if you don't tell me what's making you upset, I will not know either. You know it better than others that I am a fool when it comes to such things."
She raised her head and smiled at Yin Fu, "You are unlucky to be stuck with such an unromantic wife."
Yin Fu was sulking with his arms resting on the knee of his other leg when he heard Mo Qiang's words, he pulled his leg from her grasp and leaned forward such that he was hugging her.
Her thumping heartbeat calmed him down as he closed his eyes and hugged her waist.
"On the contrary, I feel like I am really lucky," Yin Fu muttered while hugging Mo Qiang. "So much that other mers seemed to want you."
'Did he find out about Fu Qi Hong already?' Mo Qiang thought about it and the more she thought about it the more nervous she became. "I really didn't want to do it but he forced me to."

"What—what do you mean by he forced you?" Yin Fu asked with a panicked voice as he pulled away from Mo Qiang.
The two of them have only met for two days and their relationship escalated to the point where Ling Che was forcing her...
"Just after the arrest you know...when I was drugged by the aphrodisiac."
"So—so you met with him when you were drugged? How come he ran into you?" Yin Fu asked, feeling as if the world was crumbling and the one behind it was him. ƒreewebɳovel.com
"He came to see me," replied Mo Qiang with a tilt of her head.
"Why would he come to see you!?" Yin Fu asked feeling like the entire conversation was getting out of the loop.
"…Because he was in charge of my case?"
"When did Ling Che become in charge of your case?"
"Ling Che? I was talking about the third Prince."
