Stunning beauty, the hero of Collapse is happy again

Chapter 273: Paranoid Warlord and Vengeful Undercover (32)

As Pei Jingmo's power matured, Pei Shichang became more and more displeased with him, and even when he was sleeping he worried that his position as the commander-in-chief would be replaced.

Even though he knew that Pei Sizhe was not very ambitious, he still kept Pei Sizhe by his side all the time. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell what Pei Shichang meant, and the look he gave Pei Jingmo became more and more subtle.

Pei Jingmo didn't say anything, and even his expression didn't change. He was still cold and indifferent, doing what he wanted. He was terribly strong.

He would carry out any orders given by Pei Shichang. Pei Shichang suppressed him and took back the military power, thinking that he could control his eldest son.

But Pei Shichang forgot that he got the position of Marshal because of the chaotic situation at that time and his recklessness.

What really secured his position was Pei Jingmo's repeated victories and his outstanding military talent, not Pei Shichang's own ability.

Pei Jingmo has been fighting in the military camp since he was fifteen years old and has been tempered for so many years. How could he be replaced by a mere Pei Sizhe?

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as Pei Jingmo is willing, he can control the entire Jincheng at any time. After all, even the city defense was arranged by him personally.

He now looked coldly at the father and son who were unanimous in their attitude towards him. Pei Jingmo felt no wavering in his heart, and even sarcastic words were unnecessary.

Instead of wasting time with them here, it would be better to go back and cultivate some relationship with Ruan Guannan.

Pei Jingmo thought so and did so. He simply ignored Pei Shichang who was talking loudly and left the conference room without looking back.

No one else dared to look at Pei Shichang's face, which was gloomy and wanted to kill someone.

Pei Jingmo returned to the white building and saw the woman with a noticeable bulge in her belly digesting her food in the yard. He stood in the distance and watched her for a while. After their eyes met, he strode towards her.

Ruan Guannan looked at the sky and asked in confusion, "Why did you come back so early today?"

Hearing her question, Pei Jingmo felt inexplicably better. He gently touched her bulging belly and whispered:

"There's nothing to do over there, so I might as well come back and spend time with you and the kids. How do you feel today? Are you feeling unwell?"

When she had just arrived at Bailou, she was almost three months pregnant and was suffering from morning sickness. She vomited everything she ate and looked extremely haggard.

Pei Jingmo felt distressed and helpless. He tried many solutions and finally found a folk remedy, which relieved the pain a little.

It has been more than five months now, and the flesh on Ruan Guannan's face has grown back. Pei Jingmo finally feels relieved.

Ruan Guannan was now used to Pei Jingmo's habit of touching her belly from time to time, so she followed suit with a gentle smile on her face.

"There's nothing wrong with it. The child is very well behaved."

Just as he finished speaking, he was suddenly kicked in the stomach, and Ruan Guannan couldn't help but frowned.

Pei Jingmo was frightened. His hand was still on her stomach. He had just clearly felt something unusual in her stomach and was so frightened that he didn't dare to move.

Seeing Ruan Guannan frown, Pei Jingmo bent down and held her in his arms and walked into the room, his voice very tense, "Don't be afraid, I'll ask Doctor Fan to come and take a look."

Instead of being frightened by the fetal movement, she was almost frightened by Pei Jingmo's nervousness. Looking at his stern expression as if facing a great enemy, Ruan Guannan couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips and sat on the bed as he wished.

Pei Jingmo was about to go out and ask someone to call Dr. Fan, but Ruan Guannan pulled him back and said soothingly:

"I'm fine, it's you who's in trouble."

Pei Jingmo was a little unconvinced. He looked at her face carefully and found that it was still rosy. He said in a deep voice with a stern face:

"Are you really okay? Then why did you just…"

It was also his first time as a father, and he had no idea there was such a thing as fetal movement. When he experienced it for the first time, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous. He didn't even dare to touch her belly, for fear of hurting her by accident.

Seeing him so nervous, Ruan Guannan felt a little sad. In the past few months, Pei Jingmo wanted to hold her in his hands and protect her, and her hardened heart was about to soften.

She held his hand and placed them on her bulging belly, feeling it carefully with Pei Jingmo. After a while, her belly was kicked lightly again, and Pei Jingmo's palm was kicked again, and his body became almost stiff.

Ruan Guannan smiled and whispered, "This is the child saying hello to us."

Pei Jingmo was a little bit unbelievable, and only then did he really feel the reality of being a father. He tried to lower his head to her belly to listen to the movement, and after being kicked on the face, Pei Jingmo suddenly laughed and praised in a low voice:

"Good boy, that's really exciting."

"How can you be so sure it's your son?"

Ruan Guannan thought that he was favoring sons over daughters. After all, in this era, everyone believed that only sons could carry on the family line, and the idea of ​​favoring sons over daughters was very serious.

Pei Jingmo keenly noticed that something was wrong with her mood and shook his head subconsciously.

"I'm not sure, but this child is so strong, it must be a son, right? Aren't daughters always well-behaved and cute?"

Pei Jingmo paused, glanced at the child's mother, and added in a low voice,

"If my daughter is like her mother, it's not impossible that she's stronger."

Ruan Guannan slapped his hand away to stop him from touching her. Don’t think she didn’t hear it, he was just finding ways to say that she was rude!

Pei Jingmo smiled gently, and the way he looked at her became more and more annoying, and she almost couldn't resist it several times.

But when he thought that he had not yet done what he had promised her, Ruan Guannan's troubled heart calmed down again.

As the days passed, Ruan Guannan was taking care of her pregnancy, but Pei Jingmo became busier and busier. Sometimes he couldn't come back for several days and sent people to inform Ruan Guannan several times.

Although he rarely goes out, Ruan Guannan can still keenly feel the tense atmosphere in the White Building. This feeling is further confirmed after Pei Jingmo returns.

At night, Pei Jingmo walked into her room as usual to check on her condition. Seeing that she was sleeping soundly with her eyes closed, Pei Jingmo did not leave as usual, but sat gently beside the bed and looked at her.

When Ruan Guannan opened his eyes, he met a pair of loving eyes.

Pei Jingmo was stunned and asked softly, "Why aren't you asleep?"

With his help, Ruan Guannan leaned against the head of the bed and carefully looked at his tired face. "How can I sleep when your eyes are so naked?"

Pei Jingmo chuckled and said nothing. He lowered his head and felt her belly, then said softly, "The baby is quiet. It seems he has fallen asleep."

After that, silence fell between the two, and no one spoke.

Seeing her sleepless eyes, Pei Jingmo gave up helplessly. He sat closer and couldn't help but hold her in his arms. Smelling the rich rose scent on her neck, Pei Jingmo also relaxed and whispered in her ear:

"The Liao region is ready to make a move and has declared war on the Jin region. I will lead my troops to set off tomorrow."
