When Tang Zi and An Yueqian returned, they saw Pei Yan sitting calmly beside the hospital bed, while Qin Yun on the bed seemed still out of it.

An Yueqian went over to hug Qin Yun and said with a smile, "Congratulations, little Yunyun, you’re going to be a mom."

Qin Yun snapped back to reality and slowly nodded, "So I didn’t imagine it, right?"

This news still felt a bit unreal.

An Yueqian nodded seriously, "It’s real."

Then she pinched Qin Yun’s cheek, unable to stop the smile on her face, "You’re going to be a mom, are you happy?"

Qin Yun’s lips curled up, and her hand unconsciously touched her flat stomach, "Happy."

Tang Zi had already composed himself before coming in, but seeing Qin Yun like this, his emotions couldn’t help but rise again. He said to Qin Yun, "Mom and Dad said they’d come tomorrow, but I stopped them. Your show should be wrapping up soon, right?"

Tang Zi carefully sat on the edge of the bed and gently stroked Qin Yun’s hair, "I’ll stay here and wait for your shoot to finish, then go back with you. You’re just pregnant, so you have to be very, very careful. The first three months can be uncomfortable. If you’re feeling bad, just tell me."

Qin Yun nodded obediently, "Okay."

Her mind was a bit dizzy now, like she was drunk.

But even lighter than being drunk.

She didn’t know how other Taotie felt during pregnancy, but she felt unreal. Is there really a little Taotie in her belly?

Feeling that one word wasn’t enough to express her sincerity, Qin Yun added, "I definitely will."

Tang Zi advised, "The doctor wants you to stay in the hospital for observation for a day, so get some rest. I won’t bother you. Remember, call me if you have any issues."

"Okay."

An Yueqian reluctantly let go of Qin Yun’s hand and left the room. To let Qin Yun rest, Tang Zi followed.

Pei Yan calmly saw the two off, then calmly returned to the room. He very gently got into bed and held Qin Yun in his arms.

His movements were very, very gentle.

After two minutes of holding, his hand restlessly moved to her stomach.

His warm hand covered Qin Yun’s flat stomach, and she let out a comfortable hum, "Can you feel it now?" Pei Yan’s voice was slightly hoarse, "Will he move?"

Qin Yun: "..."

She said somewhat exasperatedly, "Big brother, I’m pregnant with a baby, not a monster."

How could an embryo less than six weeks old move enough to cause a reaction in the mother?

Pei Yan really is...

Qin Yun grabbed Pei Yan’s hand, turned to look at him, and sharply asked, "Are you nervous?"

Pei Yan paused, denying it, "No, I’m not, how could I be."

Qin Yun didn’t expose him, just let out a hum, "Then while you have nothing to do now, think about what name to give your little one."

Pei Yan, hearing this, paused again, "Think of a name?"

Qin Yun nodded, "Yes."

"Another day, there’s no time today."

Pei Yan frowned, thinking a name cannot be so perfunctory; it certainly needs careful consideration.

Qin Yun felt the same. Today was chaotic, and she should rest.

She wasn’t alone anymore.

Qin Yun closed her eyes and quickly fell asleep.

In her dream, she gave birth to a bunch of little Pixiu.

Early the next morning, Tang Zi and An Yueqian arrived at the hospital, bringing loose clothing for Qin Yun and two pairs of flat shoes, letting her choose whichever she liked.

Having been accustomed to high heels, Qin Yun suddenly felt a little uncomfortable wearing flat shoes now, knowing she’d have to wear them every day from now on.

Noticing Qin Yun instinctively standing on tiptoe, An Yueqian laughed, "Don’t worry, you’ll get used to them in a couple of days."

Qin Yun frowned and nodded.

The doctor checked Qin Yun’s body again, confirmed the baby was fine, and discharged her from the hospital.

Because of Jingjing’s situation, Su Yu announced the filming would be stopped for a day.

So Qin Yun could go directly home. Tang Zi drove her back, and at the villa entrance, Qin Yun almost fell and was caught by Pei Yan.

"Slow down." Pei Yan knocked on Qin Yun’s head helplessly, his tone filled with affection.

Qin Yun nodded, "Alright, alright."

Tang Zi was startled and extended a hand to support her, only to find Pei Yan had already wrapped her in his arms.

Seeing Qin Yun was fine, Tang Zi exhaled a breath of relief.

Having just heard the news yesterday, he was quite excited, but now it seemed his sister was still just a child. How was she already going to be a mom?

"Let’s go inside."

Tang Zi called An Yueqian and Pei Yan, and the four of them entered the villa together.

However, they didn’t notice a barely noticeable flash coming from the villa’s corner.

...

By noon, a hot topic hit the headlines.

The headline was shockingly about Pei Yan and Qin Yun living together!!!!!!

"Shock! Emperor Pei Living with His Artist Qin Yun in the Same Place!"

Once the news was released, it instantly climbed to the top of Weibo’s hot search, increasing in popularity at an astonishing rate.

The PR team at the agency was the first to notice something was off and immediately informed Pei Yan. Pei Yan opened the news to see pictures from last night of him holding Qin Yun out of the villa, and this morning of him holding her at the villa entrance.

They even claimed they had been living together since returning from Country F, several days now.

#PeiYanQinYunReturnToLoveNest#, #PeiYanQinYunSecretAffairExposed#, #QinYunClimbingIntoBed#, #PeiQinFamilyAlliance#

All kinds of speculations quickly emerged, none with low popularity, creating a storm nationwide.

"You were photographed by someone?"

Upon finding out, Tang Zi immediately had people investigate which media outlet was causing trouble now.

With Qin Yun pregnant, she couldn’t take any stress, yet they dared to stir things up at this delicate time. They were courting death!

Tang Zi immediately wanted to handle this, "I’ll take care of it."

Pei Yan pondered for two seconds and said, "Since we’ve been photographed, let’s go public. Qin Yun’s pregnant, and I don’t want to hear any more bad rumors."

Now the rumors were about their relationship being transactional or a business marriage alliance, but no one guessed they might genuinely love each other and were already married.

If in the future, when Qin Yun’s belly showed and they were seen, wouldn’t they say their child was illegitimate?

He absolutely could not allow such a thing to happen.

"Going public?"

Tang Zi looked at the two in surprise, "Didn’t you decide not to go public for now? Yunyun, what do you think?"

Qin Yun seriously considered it, then turned to look at Pei Yan. Pei Yan’s thin lips pressed tightly, looking nervously at Qin Yun.

Their eyes met in the air.

Seeing him like this, Qin Yun suddenly laughed.
