Nannan is his son!!
Ye Xiudu was satisfied by that answer then, looking down on Yu Qingluo’s gloomy semblance, he said with a smile: “The third of August, what a coincidence.”
The third of august. Mo Xian and Shen Ying glanced amongst each other, their lips pressed tightly into a thin line. If he was conceived after 10 months… Doesn’t that mean that Miss Yu became pregnant with Nannan in October of the previous year? Nannan is five years old right now, so October… six years ago… purple rose birthmark…
(TL: Pregnancy lasts about 40 weeks, so about 10 months. While we usually count 9 months from the baby being conceived to when they are born, the idea isn’t wrong, so I’ll leave it as it is ~)
The two men took in a mouthful of cold air, locking their gazes in Nannan.
This kid, is he really… really the Lord’s… son?
Yu Qingluo felt regret in her heart. If she had known before that the purple rose birthmark in Nannan’s body could reveal his identity to others and make Ye Xiudu suspicious of his birth, she would have by every means tried to scrape off that birthmark before.
In short, if Nannan’s identity couldn’t be recognized then there would be no way of others being certain that he was Ye Xiudu’s son.
She raised her head swiftly, looking fixedly at Ye Xiudu in front of her, and said in a solemn voice: “Nannan’s birthday is indeed on the fourth of April. He’s only being greedy for that banquet, so he deliberately postponed it for it to be a month later than now. You cannot believe him.”
“Very well, then where did this come from?” Ye Xiudu raised his hand, showing a jade pendant in his hands, his eyes almost seemed as if they were going to burn a hole into her. Making Yu Qingluo’s heart tremble out of coldness.
When… when did he get the chance to take Jade pendant away? She had obviously kept it hidden on her body, he…
“Lord, isn’t that the jade pendant that you lost 6 years ago?” Wen Tian stepped forward abruptly, looking at the pendant in his Lord’s hands in disbelief, unable to recover from shock for a long time.
The purple rose birthmark, the 3rd of August as his birthday and the other half of the jade pendant. All the signs were there, as clear as day, telling Ye Xiudu and the other’s that Yu Qingnan was Ye Xiudu’s son. His biological son.
Otherwise, just what in else the world could explain these many coincidences coming together?
6 years ago, Miss Yu was still in the Capital and the Lord was also in the Capital.
6 years ago, Miss Yu got pregnant with Nannan in October. And, in that one night in October, the Lord fell victim to one of the Madam’s schemes[1] and, while evading his pursuers, he broke into a decadent temple and had an intimate moment with a girl.
After that night, 6 years ago, the pendant that the Lord carried, which was a pair, suddenly became a half. But now the other half had been found in Miss Yu’s hands.
Yu Qingluo bit her lips fiercely, her hands clenched into fists while she decided to deny it to death: “I picked up the other half of the jade pendant. I thought it looked pretty so I kept it on me. Since it’s yours then consider it returning to the original owner. You can keep it well so you won’t lose it again. Nannan and I still have some things to do, so we’ll go first, then… uhn…”
Yu Qingluo’s pupils dilated and her eyes went still, filled with disbelief, and dared not move as the man’s handsome face enlarged in front of her. Even forgetting to breathe.
Sh-she was taken advantage… she was taken advantage of by him. This bastard actually dared to kiss her!
And you still dare to stick your tongue in, uhn!
Yu Qingluo only felt the tip of her tongue turning numb, it almost seemed as if he wanted to tear it off. It took a long time for him to let go of her.
Her lips felt hot and swollen and her chin was captured in between his fingers in a swift movement. Ye Xiudu’s voice sounded low in her ears: “At this point, you still dare not be honest and tell me the truth, hm?”
“Ye Xiudu, do you want to die?!” Yu Qingluo’s face was flushed (TL: not cuz she’s embarrassed but cuz she held her breath lmao). And her hands moved swiftly to his face, her legs also moved up to hit his lower body.
Her series of actions were fast and fierce, not giving the other party enough time to react at all.
Ye Xiudu took two steps backwards, knowing plenty well that she must have been put into a corner by him. This woman began to think about killing him, even carrying a poisonous needle in between her fingers.
Ye Xiudu’s brows wrinkled tightly, feeling a little annoyed by the fact that she showed no mercy at all.
“Lord.” the poisoned needle caused the trio of bodyguards to stand up on guard and step forward unconsciously. Although they were still in shock by their Lord’s action of kissing a woman in front of them.
“Stand back.” Ye Xiudu gave him a cold glance then felt a cold wind blow in front of his face in the following second as Yu Qingluo’s hand holding the poisoned needle darted towards him once again, passing dangerously close to his cheek and almost prickling his face.
Ye Xiudu’s lips were pressed tight but when he realized that she had bypassed him and rushed directly towards Mo Xian, his expression sank and his legs moved, taking a few quick steps and moving behind her quickly, he aimed at her neck and chopped down.
“Oh.” Yu Qingluo let out a noise as the hand holding the silver needle strongly fell into his thigh trying to pierce it.
Ye Xiudu could hardly imagine that this woman would act so ruthless against him, so he didn’t dare be careless and used brute force against her, using a hand to press on an acupuncture point behind her neck to force her to faint.
Before falling unconscious, Yu Qingluo only thoughts were that she regretted not putting poison all over her clothes beforehand.
She had been too relaxed in Ye Xiudu’s other courtyard, so relaxed that… when she ran into such a dead-end, she let her guard down against Ye Xiudu.
She was crying over spilt milk![2]
Ye Xiudu frowned, pulling her back by her hand, he brought her into his arms, bending down to pick her up.
“Lord.” Shen Ying and the others composed themselves and hurriedly took some steps forward. Staring at the unconscious Yu Qingluo in the Lord’s arms, they felt that the whole situation was a tad too difficult to swallow after being exposed.
How couldn’t he have thought of it before, that woman from 6 years ago, she turned out to be Miss Yu. And she even gave birth to a son, a… well, a kid who was able to make everyone around him absolutely adore him.
“Get Nannan dressed and make the kitchen staff prepare him some ginger soup so he won’t catch a cold.” Ye Xiudu raised his brows and glanced at the speechless little guy. Chuckling, he hugged Yu Qingluo to leave the warehouse.
Shen Ying and the others looked at each other. They felt that the Lord seemed to be very satisfied with the fact that Yu Qingluo had given birth to his son and that this son was Nannan.
“Hey, will Miss Yu become… madam?” Shen Ying spoke his mind in a whisper.
The other two were startled by his words but nodded in a very solemn manner: “Actually, I think that the only person who is worthy of the Lord is Miss Yu.”
The trio looked at Nannan in a meaningful way and the little guy’s head shrunk in his neck as if he was feeling a bit cold.
The people outside of the warehouse were startled when they saw Ye Xiudu come out holding Yu Qingluo in his arms, feeling very confused in their minds. And when they saw him take her back to his courtyard, they became even more astonished, to the point that their jaws almost dropped to the floor.
Putting the woman in his arms on his bed, the smile on the corners of Ye Xiudu’s mouth still didn’t disappear.
Son… Nannan was unexpectedly his son?
It seemed that, after receiving the joyous news, it was only now that it hit him and he couldn’t stop grinning.
He also didn’t expect that the woman from that night 6 years ago who had softly whispering under his body would be Yu Qingluo.
(TL: Not wanting to give spoilers, but in this novel both were drugged at that time, so it’s kind of difficult to know who acted against who. So, if you want to blame someone, blame the ppl who drugged them. This kind of plot is pretty common in this sort of novels since its very unlikely for the protagonists with such personalities become close without a link between them. In this case, Nannan is the link and the driving force of the plot.)
His hand involuntarily went towards his lips, feeling that there was still some residual moistness left behind and then the memory of the wonderful taste of her lips suddenly came to his mind again. This woman, she was simply marvellous.
But all of sudden, he felt his hand go stiff, bringing it away from his lips, his pupils constricted as he stared back at the darkening mark on the palm of his hand in pure disbelief.
‘Was I poisoned?’
When did this woman poison him?

Translator’s Notes
[1] I am choosing to write “scheme”, but the original says “prescribed medicine”, which I believe is some sort of spring medicine because he had a mindless relationship with her. “Spring Medicine” is some sort of aphrodisiac in these novels in which people act like their drunk and horny selves.
[2] 悔不当初 – Means ” To regret one’s past deeds”, I just made an adaptation. xD I think its much cuter like this~
