Chapter 831 - 851: Because I’m Pregnant
Baby, you have a wonderful father who loves your mom very much, and he loves you too.
It’s just... Why do I feel so uneasy inside?
As if all the happiness I have now is like the sand in an hourglass, slipping away bit by bit...

In the morning, the sunlight shone through the entire European-style luxury villa.
The man lying on the sofa slowly opened his eyes, reached out, and rubbed his aching head.
When he tried to lift his other hand, he realized that one hand was being held by someone.
He looked down in bewilderment and then saw Xia Xiaonuan sitting on the carpet beside the sofa, holding his hand and sleeping leaning against his body.
Nangong Yaoling’s gaze scanned the entire living room.
Looking at the mess on the floor beside him, the scene from last night surfaced in his mind.
He went to the bar and then... heard Nangong Feihong’s words.
He went to drink again... The rest became a blur.
Whenever he thought of that matter, it felt like something was stabbing his heart, causing pangs of pain.
Yet, looking at the girl sleeping on the floor in front of him, he wanted to get angry but couldn’t bear to vent it on her.
He reached out and gently touched her forehead.
Suddenly, he jerked his hand back.
It was only then he felt the little hand holding him was burning hot.
"Xiaonuan... Xiaonuan, wake up!" he gently shook her.
Xia Xiaonuan moved her body, mumbled, and continued to sleep.
He shook her a few more times, but she wouldn’t wake up.
His heart sank, he hurriedly picked up Xiaonuan and rushed upstairs, calling inside as he went: "Housekeeper, Housekeeper Li!"
Quickly, the housekeeper came running out.
"Quickly get the doctor over, Xiaonuan has a fever!"
"Yes, Young Master, I’ll call immediately!"
After putting Xiaonuan on the bed, Nangong Yaoling rushed to the kitchen, got an ice pack, and applied it to her forehead.
The girl’s cheeks were flushed with fever, her whole body was very hot.
He opened the medicine box and ran to the kitchen to prepare fever medicine for her.
Xia Xiaonuan heard a series of banging sounds and slowly opened her eyes.
Then she saw a familiar figure rushing over: "Xiaonuan, you’re awake!" Nangong Yaoling said joyfully.
He hurriedly helped her up: "You have a fever, here, drink the medicine first!"
Nangong Yaoling placed a cup to her lips.
"Fever..." Xia Xiaonuan felt her whole body hurt, a kind of stinging pain coming in waves. She didn’t even want to move.
"Come on, open your mouth..." Looking at Nangong Yaoling’s tense expression, Xia Xiaonuan suddenly thought of something and hurriedly grabbed his arm.
"Nangong Yaoling... trust me... I didn’t..."
Nangong Yaoling’s body trembled.
"Does she know why he drank?"
He looked at Xiaonuan with a complex expression, her anxious eyes, her pale lips devoid of any color.
His heart ached terribly, wishing he were the one sick.
Pushing away his melancholy, he muttered, "Alright, let’s talk about this later, just drink the medicine first!"
Speaking, without further ado, he brought the cup to her lips again.
Xia Xiaonuan, seeing his demeanor, knew he still had concerns in his heart.
She slightly opened her mouth, preparing to take the medicine, when suddenly she remembered something.
She hurriedly reached out and placed her hand on her belly.
"No... I can’t take medicine..." Although she hadn’t been pregnant before, she had heard that you shouldn’t randomly take medicine or injections during pregnancy, otherwise it might cause a miscarriage!
