Chapter 189: What is the ultimate torment?

Just after Chen Yan's words fell, the atmosphere fell silent for two seconds; Gao Yang's pupils dilated for an instant, then she asked bewilderedly, "What didn't get in?"

Chen Yan: "......"

Damn, it turns out she knows nothing about this at all.

No wonder she'd say something like asking him for a prescription.

"You...... before you got married, did no one ever tell you about this?"

Gao Yang seemed to realize something was wrong, staring at him with a hostile gaze: "Not long after we got engaged, the Mother Empress taught me about this."

"But from what you're saying, it seems I'm still missing something?"

Hearing this, Chen Yan realized, and a teasing smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

Empress Changsun definitely taught her, but it seems she didn't finish the lesson.

So Gao Yang simply couldn't understand: they had clearly shared a bed many times, yet she still hadn't gotten pregnant.

"Nothing, hurry up and sleep." Chen Yan didn't want to explain today; he turned over and prepared to sleep.

Since Empress Changsun didn't teach her, neither will he.

It's worth mentioning that if Empress Changsun knew about this, she would surely be speechless.

Is it that she didn't teach?

Or could it be that your technique is too... provocative?

"No, you must explain this clearly today, or you won't be getting any sleep."

Gao Yang was hardly willing.

She got up and kicked Chen Yan, nearly kicking him off the bed.

"Hurry up and tell me, why can't I get pregnant?"

"I'm really fed up with you." Chen Yan, looking impatient, explained the principle to her in crystal-clear detail.

"Do you understand now?"

"Although this method isn't foolproof, the odds are low; isn't it normal that you haven't gotten pregnant?"

After hearing this, Gao Yang's gaze went blank; she sat stupidly on the bed, her face full of existential doubt.

Thinking back to how long they'd been married, in order to conceive a child, aside from special circumstances, she had almost every day been gritting her teeth and enduring, sometimes even having to think of ways to provoke Chen Yan.

And now they're telling her this.

All of this has actually been in vain?

Gao Yang's expression shattered bit by bit: first bewildered, then aggrieved, finally turning into indescribable anger.

"Chen Yan!!!"

"I'll make you die, die!!!"

This time she held nothing back, lashing out with a full-force kick.

"I..... damn......"

Chen Yan, unable to react in time, was truly kicked down; before he could even get up, he felt someone slam heavily onto him.

Yes, that's right, it was a slam.

"Ah!"

"My waist!"

Chen Yan let out a cry of pain, feeling as if his waist was no longer his own.

"Waist?" Gao Yang clenched her teeth, her eyes blazing with fury that could scorch everything, "I'll wreck your waist!"

As she spoke, Gao Yang slammed a fierce punch into Chen Yan's waist.

"Ah! You damned well trying to murder your husband?!"

"Exactly, I'll fight you to the end today no matter what." Her pent-up resentment and grievance turned into power, each punch thudding against Chen Yan's body.

"I'll make you regret deceiving me, I'll make you regret deceiving me!"

"Do you have any idea how long I've struggled to have a child? Do you know how hard and exhausting it's been for me?"

"After being married this long, can't you see I want a child?"

"You bastard, all you know is to bully me for my ignorance and go fool around outside—you...... you damned well still a human being?"

The arrhythmic pounding was accompanied by a raging roar that broke through her defenses; in the end, Gao Yang burst into loud sobs.

She recalled that since marrying Chen Yan, every morning she needed Xiang Lan's help to get out of bed, and had to rest a long time before she could walk normally.

Xiang Lan kept urging her to rest, but she stubbornly gritted her teeth and persisted.

All of it, just to have a child.

Gao Yang's emotions completely collapsed: "You..... waaah~ give me back my child!"

Chen Yan: "......"

He had originally intended to roll over and fight Gao Yang.

But seeing Gao Yang in that state, he also felt heartbroken.

"All right, all right, stop crying—we're still young, our future is long, there'll be plenty of time to have a child."

"Don't rush."

Chen Yan struggled to sit up, pulled Gao Yang into his arms, and with one hand gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

But Gao Yang seemed not to hear him at all, wailing loudly as she cried.

"Stop crying—our new house isn't as big as the old one, the servants can hear everything."

Gao Yang's voice trailed off, as if she remembered her own status as a princess.

But then she thought, these servants all came from the Bo Mansion—who doesn't know she often fights with Chen Yan?

She'd long since lost any face.

"I don't care! Wuwuwu~ you bastard, give me back my child, wuwu~"

Chen Yan: "......"

He immediately realized that coaxing her wouldn't work; continuing to coax might only make her push further.

So he instantly switched to another method.

Chen Yan turned Princess Gao Yang onto her back, pressed her onto the bed, forced her arms straight forward, then held her with one hand.

Princess Gao Yang barely struggled, her mind filled only with her child.

"The child, right? I'll give you the child."

As he spoke, Chen Yan's other hand gently scratched Princess Gao Yang's armpit.

The effect was immediate; Princess Gao Yang's sobs stopped at once, her wide, tear‑filled eyes stared, and she writhed in extreme discomfort.

"Chen... Yan... you... let... go... me."

In just a moment, her face flushed red, clearly choked and uncomfortable.

"Aren't you the one who wanted a child? Still want it or not?" Chen Yan snorted lightly, his hand motion unchanged.

Princess Gao Yang kept twisting her body, but being pressed down by Chen Yan, her arms held, she couldn't break free no matter how hard she tried.

She bit her lips hard, refusing to submit, holding back any sound.

Yet as time passed, she grew increasingly uncomfortable.

"For the child, I endure!"

Princess Gao Yang thought this in her heart.

However, her expression instantly twisted thereafter.

Chen Yan, damn, scratched the other side.

"Ah!!!"

She let out an extremely loud scream, truly unable to bear it any longer.

"Hahaha~ Chen... no, hahaha, husband, can... can we reconcile?"

"Hahaha, I... I hahaha, really know, I'm wrong!!!"

"Wrong?" Chen Yan was amused by her expression, "Where are you wrong?"

"No, you, Princess Gao Yang, with your priceless body, how could you be at fault?"

"The one at fault is me."

"I should apologize to you."

"You know you're wrong... then you bastard should say sorry!!" Taking advantage of Chen Yan's pause, Princess Gao Yang roared with all her might, her movements slightly eased.

Chen Yan:???

Fine, this dog woman really isn't that easy to concede defeat.

You just pretended to fire a shot at him, right?

Chen Yan glared, and the speed of his fingertips instantly quickened.

Gao Yang cried and laughed, suffering to the point of wanting to die.

"Wuwu~ hahaha, husband, it's me… it's me, hahaha, my fault."

"I just… just, hahaha, finished teasing you, wuwu~ laughing."

"Please… hahaha, spare me, wuwu~ please."

"......"
