Xinjie grabbed the vase and threw it on the floor. The handmaidens begged her to stop but she was out of control breaking everything she could get her hands on. She abruptly stopped when she heard a roar.
"Xinjie enough!"
All the handmaidens left in a hurry, when the room was empty Kuang walked to his daughter.
He asked:
"What is the matter with you?"
Xinjie cried as she hugged him:
"Eden is pregnant."
Kuang held her surprised.
"Is that why he didn't join the festivities yesterday?"
"It is."
Kuang felt better hearing that. When he didn't see Eden he thought that he might've found out something but thankfully he is still in the dark. He can't wait for tonight he'll finally be gone for good. He patted his daughter's back and reminded:
"Eden will die tonight anyway."
"I know but I wanted to be the first to be pregnant."
