Chapter 237: You Come Down, I’ll Go Up! Has Shang Tian gotten pregnant?
The luxurious phoenix robe fluttered like flames, and the obstructive seats and low tables were kicked aside by someone.
Two empty wine jugs that had been lying under Zhao Ji’s skirt rolled far away.
The wide, obstructive phoenix robe could not hide the breathtaking curves of the Empress Dowager.
Maturity and youth are not just two different words.
Once the suppressed emotions in the depths of the heart were released, they surged forth!
What Empress Dowager!
What status!
What eternal damnation!
None of it mattered anymore.
Before tonight, Zhao Ji had struggled countless times within her heart.
She had warned herself never to make a substantial breakthrough.
But at this moment, such thoughts were thrown to the skies!
The night grew deeper, and the flickering candlelight turned from red to pink.
Zhao Ji’s drunkenness had long been dispelled.
Suddenly, her gaze became clear.
She dug her sharp nails fiercely into Li Mo’s arms.
Glaring angrily, she shouted, “You dare!”
Li Mo gasped in pain, stunned by her words.
After all those times he’d given her everything, and now she wanted to turn against him?
Who is the heartless one here?
He thought the Empress Dowager was full and satisfied, and now she wanted to flip the script on him.
“970” Zhao Ji lifted her chin haughtily and said, “I am the Empress Dowager; how can I stay beneath anyone?”
Li Mo’s expression turned odd.
He pondered what she meant by this.
Zhao Ji raised her brows and insolently said, “Get down, I’ll go up.”
Is there anything better?
Why didn’t you say so sooner!
Creak…
The heavy palace door made a slight sound.
Li Mo, fully dressed, walked out from inside.
The maid who was supposed to guard the door was now standing at a distance.
Only the maid who had been possessed by Lei Wu stood vigil by the door.
She maintained a statuesque, expressionless state.
Noticing Li Mo coming out, she showed the first hint of reaction.
Li Mo sensed her presence and his face turned strange.
This maid was refined by Fei Yan into a puppet; although she had no emotional fluctuations, it didn’t mean she was unaware of what was happening around her.
With all the noise from the Empress Dowager earlier, she must have heard it all.
After Li Mo left, the maid and the other palace maids entered the sleeping quarters one by one.
The scene inside was not as chaotic as expected.
Only the positions of tables and chairs had changed, wine jugs were overturned, and dishes were scattered on the floor.
Looking around the sleeping quarters, the Empress Dowager was nowhere to be seen.
However, the rolled-up curtains had been let down.
Two palace maids tiptoed over.
Lifting the curtains, they found the Empress Dowager deeply asleep on the bed.
She was covered with a crimson quilt.
The phoenix robe she had worn during the day was neatly folded on one side.
The hairpins had been removed and placed tidily on the dressing table.
The two palace maids exchanged glances.
They couldn’t help but marvel at the meticulousness of the National Advisor.
Zhao Ji’s lips, rosily plump, bore a slight smile.
She looked extremely satisfied, as if she had eaten and drunk her fill.
Perhaps because of the amount of wine she had drunk.
Her cheeks were bright red, and even her delicate ears were tinged with red frost.
The already enchanting face had an added touch of allure.
Seeing the Empress Dowager sleeping so soundly and peacefully, the maids dared not disturb her.
They let down the gauze curtain and tiptoed away.
Meanwhile, other palace maids were orderly cleaning up the mess.
Crystal-clear wine spilled all over the floor, glistening under the flickering candlelight on the hardwood floor.
A maid picked up a few wine jugs that had rolled far away.
She shook them gently by her ear.
Finding them empty, she glanced at the floor, feeling a twinge of regret.
Such fine nectar wasted all over the floor, what a pity!
By the time Li Mo returned to the manor, dawn was breaking.
The maids in the mansion were already up, busy with their daily cleaning and breakfast preparations.
Li Mo walked towards the main courtyard with one hand on his waist.
“Who would’ve thought the Empress Dowager is so strong.”
“My waist almost got pinched to pieces by her!”
Li Mo pushed open the door, and Jing Ni, who was grooming herself, turned around.
With a slight hint of surprise, she said, “Husband, why are you back at this hour?”
He wasn’t sure if Li Mo was early or late.
If you say he’s early, he didn’t come back all night.
If you say he’s late, he got home before dawn.
Li Mo scratched his forehead and walked towards Jing Ni.
“Why are you up so early, my lady?”
Jing Ni looked at him with a broad smile.
She softly said, “I always get up this early.”
Except under special circumstances, when Li Mo sleeps with her, Jing Ni has always been an early riser.
It’s a habit ingrained from her days as an assassin.
Something carved into her bones is not so easy to change.
Although she no longer works as an assassin, she has become the head of assassins now.
Jing Ni’s smile was exceptionally gentle and heartfelt.
Her deep, beautiful eyes seemed to sparkle with starlight.
Li Mo felt a bit uneasy inside.
Just as if he had secretly eaten his mother’s snacks, pondering if he should come clean.
After thinking it over, he decided to be honest with Jing Ni.
Without Jing Ni’s magnanimity and tolerance, the household wouldn’t be as lively as it is now.
Li Mo walked behind her and gently turned her around.
Taking the comb from her jade-like hand, he carefully brushed her waterfall-like long hair.
“My lady, I have something to tell you.”
“My husband, I have something to tell you too.”
Both spoke at the same time and were momentarily stunned.
“Lady, you go first.”
“Husband, you go first.”
Once again, they spoke in unison.
Both ended up laughing at their mutual understanding.
Jing Ni softly chuckled, covering her cherry-like lips with her alabaster hand, and looked at Li Mo through the mirror.
It seemed she was waiting for him to speak first.
Li Mo understood her intention and began to speak first.
But he said, “Ladies first.”
Jing Ni softly hummed, but no words followed.
Instead, she leaned back slowly, her slender jade-like back resting against Li Mo.
She gently placed her jade-like hand on her flat belly.
Then, tilting her head, she silently stared at their reflection in the mirror.
Li Mo found it strange.
Jing Ni was not the kind to express deep emotions for no reason.
She rarely even uttered the word “love.”
Yet at this moment, she acted like a heroine from a Qiong Yao drama.
Overwhelmed with tenderness and affection.
“What’s the matter, my lady?”
Li Mo enveloped her from behind and asked softly.
Jing Ni lifted her exquisite face.
Her eyebrows and eyes brimming with gentleness and affection.
“Kneel down.”
Li Mo chuckled softly and knelt down as she asked.
Then he asked, “Can you say it now?”
Jing Ni pursed her small, delicate lips. She wanted to say something but swallowed her words.
Instead, she grasped Li Mo’s hand that was on her jade-like thigh and guided it to her flat belly.
Then she softly asked, “What do you feel?”
A gentle curve appeared on the corner of Li Mo’s mouth.
He praised, “Soft and smooth like jade, delicate and silky.”
Indeed, it was as white and tender as the belly of a giant salamander.
Not only was it free of any flab, but it also concealed astonishing explosive power.
The graceful curves when she moved were like a white flag fluttering in the wind, akin to the rolling white waves on the sea.
Graceful as a startled swan, elegant as a swimming dragon.
Jing Ni’s smile deepened with his compliment.
She looked at him expectantly and asked again, “And?”
“And…”
Li Mo wasn’t hesitating, he just found it a bit odd.
Jing Ni had never urged him for compliments like this before.
What was different today?
“And naturally, it makes me so infatuated that I want to touch it even in my sleep.”
Jing Ni seemed unsatisfied with this answer, feeling that Li Mo didn’t hit the point she wanted to hear.
“And?”
This time, Li Mo couldn’t hold it in.
“My lady is acting strange today.”
Previously, praising her a couple of times would make her embarrassed. Why does she now seem eager to talk about it?
Jing Ni’s eyes sparkled with a smile like blooming peach blossoms as she covered his hand with her warm jade-like hand.
Seeing his 4.9 stunned expression, she couldn’t help but remind him, “Feel it carefully, see if there’s any difference from before.”
Jing Ni felt a bit resentful inside.
How come my usually smart husband can’t figure this out now?
Is it that my hints aren’t clear enough?
“Different?”
Li Mo carefully felt it.
Nothing different!
Still so flat, so soft.
As he continued touching, he suddenly thought of something.
He stood there in shock.
Jing Ni didn’t ask about other places, why only the belly?
Her beauty is not just limited to her belly.
There are also her long, firm, jade-like legs, and her slender, graceful waist.
Every aspect exudes irresistible charm.
“Did you feel it?”
Jing Ni’s eyes lit up, her expectant face filled with happy joy.
The light in her eyes twinkled like stars.
Li Mo instantly understood everything.
His heart suddenly filled with intense emotion.
Nervously, he swallowed, and his hand on Jing Ni’s belly began to tremble slightly.
He softly asked for confirmation: “My dear, are you… pregnant?”
