Zhan Se knew she was worried about him and forced a self-satisfied smile, "Don't worry, Fourth Brother had Leng Xue check on me. It's probably because I'm a bit anxious about my dad and mom's situation, and then there's the anemia from the pregnancy that's sapping my energy. I should get better after a while."
"Haven't you taken any medicine?"
"Yes, it was prescribed by Leng Xue, suitable for pregnant women. It's for body conditioning and also for beauty enhancement, hehe..."
"The groom really had a tough time!"
Once back at Jinshan Villa, Zhan Se started to feel dizzy. She didn't do anything but had Sun Qing support her back to the room, where she collapsed on the bed and fell asleep. Throughout the process, she was tormented by nightmares and cold sweats, yet never fully awoke.
She slept until past six in the evening when Emperor Quan returned and she was still struggling between sleep and wakefulness.
It seemed that being pregnant was indeed a tough job.
