Once they found out she was pregnant, they would definitely tell Lu Yebai, and if Lu Yebai knew she was pregnant, he would certainly not let her go.
That was her greatest fear.
Meng Xi'er hovered there in hesitation, unsure of what to do, as the servants began their work jubilantly, all delighting in the return of Lu Yebai.
Their value lay in serving Lu Yebai, they all hoped she would receive his favor so that Lu Yebai would come home more often.
Lu Yebai had recently started to stay out more and more at night, it made them nervous. They subtly questioned her about what was going on between her and Lu Yebai.
Meng Xi'er sometimes felt quite terrified of this kind of life.
Living at the whim of a man's moods was too risky, how could she possibly tolerate that.
At dinner that night, Lu Yebai finally came downstairs. Meng Xi'er sat in her seat, watching the man sit casually across from her. She bit her chopsticks and cast discreet glances at him.
He had said, he would let her go.
