On the official road, the carriage traveled smoothly, everything was silent under the night sky.
This sudden pain awakened Lan Cai'er from her sleep.
What happened?
Her stomach hurt intensely, and Lan Cai'er's heart raced wildly. She felt a deep ache as if something was about to leave her.
Between her legs, there was a wet sensation.
"Sister Cai'er, what's wrong?"
"I-I'm going to give birth."
Lan Cai'er's water broke, even though she was days away from her due date.
The unease in her heart grew more apparent.
"What should we do?" Aguduo, unmarried and naive, turned pale with fright, her voice alerting Dao Ge outside.
"What's going on?"
Dao Ge eagerly asked beside the carriage.
Though Lan Cai'er agreed to return to the Xia Capital with him, she found him distasteful; throughout the journey, she only spoke with Aguduo and ignored Dao Ge, not allowing him on the carriage.
"Sister Cai'er is going to have the baby; I don't know what to do."
Aguduo opened the carriage door.
