Rumor Has It That I'm Pregnant with His Highness' Child

As soon as she heard that she could freeload, Yu Niaoniao immediately perked up.

“Sure, sure!”

Granny Xiu Yan specially ordered someone to send the mutton soup to the kitchen and heat it up with a small fire.

Xiao Juan took a simple hot shower and changed into clean clothes.

Facing the ginger tea that was brought to him, he replied calmly.

“No need.”

With that, he walked out of the bedroom without looking back.

Lunch was ready and the dishes were very rich. Mutton soup was also placed on the table and placed in the most obvious position.

When Yu Qianqian saw Xiao Juan enter, she immediately greeted him warmly.

“Come, come. Try the mutton soup I made.”

Xiao Juan originally wanted to refuse, but after hearing her words, it became something else.

“Did you cook this?”

“That’s right. This soup can nourish your stomach and is good for your body,” Yu Niaoniao said as she scooped a bowl of mutton soup.

She placed the bowl in front of Xiao Juan and looked at him with anticipation.

Xiao Juan had seen countless pairs of eyes. Some were cold, some were disgusted, some were filled with hatred, and some were filled with anger...

But no one had ever expected anything from him.

He looked down at the bowl of mutton soup. The fragrance entered his nose and made him want to taste it.

He pinched the spoon and scooped some soup into his mouth.

The warm mutton soup flowed down his esophagus into his stomach, and the chill brought by the rain was dispelled bit by bit.

Yu Niaoniao looked at him unblinkingly.

When he stopped moving after a sip, she couldn’t help asking, “Is it not to your liking?”

Xiao Juan asked, “You came to me today to give me soup?”

Yu Niaoniao nodded and said without a trace of guilt.

“That’s right! This is the soup I’ve been cooking all night. I think it’s especially delicious and can’t wait to share it with you.”

Xiao Juan asked, “Is there anything else?”

Yu Niaoniao asked blankly, “Is there anything else?”

Seeing this, Xiao Juan went straight to the point. “I thought you were here to plead for mercy for Jiang Ze.”

Yu Niaoniao was even more puzzled.

“Why would I plead for him?”

Xiao Juan looked at her steadily, not letting go of any change in her face.

“He’s your cousin. Now that he’s convicted and can’t escape death, don’t you want to plead his case?”

Yu Niaoniao immediately revealed the expression of a spectator and asked eagerly.

“Are you saying that Jiang Ze was convicted?”

Xiao Juan was silent.

He had seen countless people and could tell at a glance that Yu Niaoniao’s reaction was not an act.

She really had no idea.

Yu Niaoniao took his silence as tacit agreement. She couldn’t help but click her tongue.

“So the person Yu Sheng wants to protect is really Jiang Ze.”

However, even though Jiang Ze knew the truth, he was unwilling to stand up for Yu Sheng and even pretended to be a guest at my house.

Tsk, tsk, tsk. This person’s heart is really black.”

Xiao Juan asked with a complicated expression, “You don’t look worried for Jiang Ze at all?”

Yu Niaoniao looked matter-of-fact.

“That man deserved it. What’s there to worry about?”

Xiao Juan was really sure now. Yu Qianqian did not want to plead for Jiang Ze at all.

She really had only come to bring him soup.

Thinking of this, Xiao Juan scooped up another spoonful of mutton soup and tasted it silently.

Yu Qianqian asked curiously, “What do you plan to do with Jiang Ze?”

This matter involved official business, and Xiao Juan usually wouldn’t leak it to outsiders.

But for some reason, he gave an answer without much hesitation. Perhaps the sound of the rain disturbed his mood. Perhaps the mutton soup was too warm.

“We’ll detain him in the Justice Department for the time being. We’ll execute him after we capture the mastermind.”
