Xie Ruotong still found it hard to accept.
It felt like being overwhelmed by an unexpected honor.
She had made preparations for a lifetime without children. The reluctance to be with Song Yanqing initially wasn't rooted in hatred—that had long been let go. It was more an issue of not being able to conceive.
She could live without children, but she couldn't implicate others, nor did she want the Song Family to end without descendants, or to be entangled with them over children. If it weren't for Song Yanqing's persistence, she never would have reconciled with him.
After reconciling, she had even considered taking concubines for Song Yanqing to ensure the Song Family had heirs, but he refused resolutely, so she didn't insist.
Yet now.
An Ning told her she was pregnant!
Suddenly, there was a baby.
Her heart was filled with indescribable emotions; very complex.
Joy? Or fright?!
She couldn't tell for a moment.
