Last night in the ward, Fu Lingxi mentioned giving her some books for expectant mothers. Chi Xingye was too preoccupied to take it in at the time, but now Fu Lingxi had brought over so many books, she felt like she was being set up!
Chi Xingye quickly waved her off, "I'm not pregnant, Lingxi just said these books were good, they're just to prepare me in advance."
She had to clarify this to the butler, otherwise the news of her pregnancy would surely reach the Elder King, and it would become more difficult for her to abort the child.
The butler just laughed and didn't express whether he believed her or not, but suggested, "Your Highness, shall I have the servants move these books to your room?"
"Fine," Chi Xingye responded.
As she was headed towards the dining room, she heard the butler again, "Your Highness,the servants say your appetite hasn't been good lately. I'll have a doctor come and check on you later."
"That won't be necessary," she swiftly declined.
