On the way back, Xiaoxiao couldn't stop thinking about the matter. She just couldn't understand how she, clearly still a maiden, could have been mistaken as pregnant, and what was even more baffling was that someone actually acknowledged the child.
She had to figure this out! She needed to ask Yang Ming.
That evening, both of them returned to their room. Xiaoxiao voiced out the confusion in her heart!
"Yang Ming, why did you acknowledge the child? Did I really carry your baby?"
"..." How should he answer? He hadn't consummated their marriage with her, and she knew it! He thought she wouldn't ask since she must have assumed the child was someone else's, but she had asked after all.
"I am clearly still a virgin, we haven't consummated the marriage, how could I possibly have a child?"
"When everyone was saying I was pregnant, I naively believed it! I thought I carried your child! Do you think I'm a complete fool now?"
