474. Chapter 474: Taking the Initiative to Search

Would Ouyang Yuefeng be happy if he learned that she was pregnant with his child?

Xuanyuan Qingxuan thought not.

After all, their being together was an accident.

He also didn't like her.

Xuanyuan Qingxuan thought for a moment and gave the address of her aunt.

Her aunt married a minor official; their family wasn't very wealthy, but it was quite good for her aunt.

It was also good for their whole family.

When they left.

Xuanyuan Qingxuan asked Qiao Sheng and Shi Lin their names; after asking, without them having to ask, she gave them her own name.

She had rarely been at home before; she was always with her master.

Therefore, she wasn't familiar with people from the Imperial Capital.

The only person she was familiar with was Ouyang Yuefeng, whom she had liked for many years.

Qiao Sheng and Shi Lin, on the other hand, knew that Ouyang Yuefeng's wife had the surname Xuanyuan, but they hadn't paid attention to what her given name was.

Thus they realized she was the wife Ouyang Yuefeng had married only recently.

Because of Xuanyuan Qingxuan, today's turn of events occurred.

On the way home.

Shi Lin kept nagging in front of Qiao Sheng, urging her never to go out alone again, not to go to crowded places, and if something like this happened, let the people around her rescue her; she shouldn't go.

Qiao Sheng felt like her ears were about to get calloused.

She interrupted Shi Lin's rambling, saying, "Alright, alright, I get it, I've noted everything you said."

"It must be recorded."

Shi Lin lightly tapped Qiao Sheng's head and said.

"Here."

Ouyang Yuefeng had already figured out how to apologize to Xuanyuan Qingxuan, but when he got home, Feng Xi told him his wife hadn't returned home and had gone to her aunt's house.

Because of that.

Feng Xi couldn't help but say something else about Ouyang Yuefeng.

"It's all your own fault for not coming back for so long. First thing tomorrow morning, go to her aunt's house and bring her back. Remember to buy some things, and speak nicely."

"I understand."

Ouyang Yuefeng returned to the room they shared, and as soon as he entered, he couldn't help recalling what had happened that night.

The skin at the base of his ears visibly reddened.

After that.

His face also flushed.

Also.

It was already night.

Otherwise.

He would definitely go to Xuanyuan Qingxuan's aunt's house to bring her back.

The next morning, Ouyang Yuefeng arrived early at Xuanyuan Qingxuan's aunt's house, but the household servants told him that they had left early, and they didn't know where they had gone.

Ouyang Yuefeng said he would come back later.

He came twice.

Both times they said they hadn't returned.

Ouyang Yuefeng just assumed where they had gone and went back home.

He didn't know.

Xuanyuan Qingxuan had been staying at her aunt's house all along.

Her aunt also remained at home.

Xuanyuan Qingxuan didn't want to go back for the time being; her aunt sensed that her mood was off and helped her tell a lie.

For several days they didn't bring Xuanyuan Qingxuan back.

Ouyang Yuefeng just felt something was off.

He went to Feng Xi and told her about it.

Feng Xi said irritably, "You only now realize something's wrong; it's obvious that Qingxuan is angry with you. Not to mention a few days—if you don't take the initiative to look for her, she might not return for a month."

Ouyang Yuefeng hesitated, then that night leapt into Xuanyuan Qingxuan's aunt's house.

He searched for a while and finally found Xuanyuan Qingxuan.

At that moment.

Xuanyuan Qingxuan was sitting propped up on a bed.

Her aunt was feeding her.

"Xuan'er, what exactly is going on between you and Ouyang Yuefeng? Also, you're pregnant—why are you still going out alone? Didn't their family arrange a maid to accompany and look after you? When you first got married, you didn't bring a maid either…"

What!

Xuanyuan Qingxuan is pregnant?

Ouyang Yuefeng hadn't reacted yet.

Xuanyuan Qingxuan opened her mouth and said, "Aunt, Ouyang Yuefeng doesn't like me. The night we were married, we were together, but it was still an accident; he doesn't like me."

"So this child was conceived that night?"

Her aunt said something a bit unexpected.

Xuanyuan Qingxuan nodded, "Hmm."

They chatted for a while.

Her aunt had just left.

She just left.

Ouyang Yuefeng leapt down to the window, hesitated for a moment, then flipped through the window into the room.

"Who?"

Xuanyuan Qingxuan asked.

Ouyang Yuefeng answered her, "It's me."

He, how did he come?

He heard the conversation they just had?

Xuanyuan Qingxuan was a bit flustered; she was somewhat worried that Ouyang Yuefeng didn't want this child.

Ouyang Yuefeng walked over, looked straight at her, and asked.

"Are you pregnant?"
