Chapter 1009: Baby, I’m Sorry You Had to Suffer

Lu Yan placed his hand on her stomach, pausing for a bit. “Your stomach really hurts?”

“Mm.” An’an nodded her head.

“I owe you all of this. I can never hit you and I can never allow you to suffer in pain!”

After cursing, he wrapped his arm around her slim waist and lifted her up, walking towards the bed. An’an took the chance and hugged his neck, wrapping her legs around his waist.

Pah! Lu Yan slapped her butt. “Behave well, take your legs away!”

After all this anticipation, he had gotten nothing from her. How dare she wrap her legs around his waist! A woman should never easily wrap her legs around a man’s waist.

Puffing up her cheeks, An’an wrapped her legs around his waist even more tightly. “It feels comfortable like this.”

“…”

She felt comfortable doing that but what about him? He was going to get sick sooner or later if he continued suppressing his desires like that.

Lu Yan placed An’an on the bed and lay beside her. Gently making circles on her stomach with his large hand, he asked, “Do you feel better?”

“Mmhmm.”

An’an nodded her head. His hand was huge and could cover her entire stomach once he stretched his fingers out. Little Yan, this is daddy’s first time interacting with you at such close proximity. You must be really happy.

Lu Yan looked at her, patting her stomach. “Seems like I can’t expect you to give birth to my son. There’s nothing growing in here.”

An’an raised her brows. Fool, she had a baby growing inside of her. He just didn’t know it yet.

“Don’t massage my stomach anymore.” An’an pushed Lu Yan’s hand away before she got up. “Ah Yan, I have something important for you today. I asked my senior for a favor before. He helped me to get this full-customized prosthetic limb for you.”

An’an got down the bed, taking out the high-tech prosthetic limb that Li Junxun had customized.

Lu Yan sat by the bed, raising his brows. “So you went to the bar to have drinks with Li Junxun all for this?”

“That’s right.”

An’an crouched down beside him, pushing his bathrobe upwards, revealing the cheap prosthetic limb he had on.

She reached over, attempting to remove it really carefully.

But Lu Yan tried to push her hands away. “I’ll do it myself.”

Though he had been wearing the prosthetic limb for quite some time already, it would still get infected frequently, resulting in redness and swelling. He hadn’t taken it off even when he slept beside her at night.

An’an knew that he was quite a chauvinist with high regard for his pride. He wasn’t willing to let her witness him being so pathetic.

He constantly thought that his amputated leg was gruesome looking, and it would definitely scare her.

“Ah Yan, let me do it.”

Ignoring him, An’an pushed his hand away, taking the prosthetic limb off.

Lowering her eyes, she ran her fingers over his amputated leg gently. Three years ago, he had donated his bone marrow to her and even lost a leg because of her. She felt even more touched inside, bending down to kiss his amputated leg.

Lu Yan suddenly stiffened. She planted gentle kisses on his amputated leg, every kiss was sincere and tender. Tears welled up in his eyes, all the muscles in his body began bulging.

He couldn’t exactly explain the feeling. It felt just like he was taking opium, getting high while suffering in agony. He felt the same kind of pleasure he derived from pinning her underneath of him in bed, that kind of pleasure. Or perhaps, it felt even more amazing than the two different kinds of feelings.

She kissed his amputated leg.

Lu Yan instantly picked up her dainty jaw, forcing her to lift her head. “Stop kissing it.”

His voice had gone hoarse.

When she heard him, An’an looked at him with glassy eyes, before she could even reply, he added, “If you’re that daring, continue kissing upwards.”

An’an froze. She looked upwards from his amputated leg, her gaze traveling and landing on his bathrobe. There was a huge bulge.

“…”

She quickly pushed all of the material of the bathrobe over it, covering the obscene image.

What was he even thinking about?

An’an put on the new prosthetic limb for him, it fit just like a glove. “Ah Yan, stand up and try walking around for a bit.”

Lu Yan stood up, taking two steps. This thing Li Junxun got for him seemed pretty good.

“How much does this cost? Return him the money.” He glanced at her.

An’an nodded her head. “I’ve already given him the money for it.”

“Since you’ve already paid him the money, don’t ever contact him again.”

“…”

This man…

He had such weird logic.

Lu Yan suddenly humphed.

An’an’s heart thumped, she quickly ran over to help him up. “Ah Yan, what’s wrong? Does it hurt somewhere?”

Lu Yan stretched out his muscular arm, grasping her slim waist as he pulled her into his embrace. “Somewhere hurts.”

“Where?”

He held her almost boneless hand, guiding it downwards.

“…”

An’an finally realized that he had been teasing her. She quickly retracted her hand, feigning to be weak very astutely. “My stomach hurts again.”

Lu Yan narrowed his eyes cheekily while watching her put up an act. “Your stomach hurts, but is your hand not functioning as well?”

“…”

Lu Yan bent over, lifting her up as he pulled her onto the bed.

…

At night.

At the army base.

Qianqian stood outside the quarters. The guard outside apologized, “I’m sorry, our General has already fallen asleep, he’s not meeting guests anymore.”

Qianqian’s hands were balled into two fists by her sides. Ever since Lu Yan had become General, she hadn’t gotten the chance to meet him even once.

She turned and left.

Arriving at a dark, secluded corner, there was someone waiting for her.

Qianqian was delighted. She quickly went forward. “Dad.”

The person turned around. It was Chen Jin’s confidential secretary.

“Dad, Lu Yan still doesn’t want to meet me. Is he still in contact with Gu An’an?”

The confidential secretary shook his head with a somber expression on his face. “Lu Yan hasn’t contacted Gu An’an ever since he got promoted. This man is ambitious, women are just like clothes, they can be easily changed. Let’s not bother about Gu An’an, I’ve already made plans. Let’s act on it and get rid of Lu Yan during the training session in the jungle tomorrow. As for the unconscious Chen Jin, I’ll make sure to end his life too. By then, the position of the General would belong to me.”

“Dad, I still can’t bear to get rid of Lu Ya–”

“That’s enough!” The confidential secretary broke Qianqian off. “I’ve put up with everything for so many years, all of it just for this day to come. Now that we have the golden opportunity with all factors working in our favor, we must not wait any longer. In order to prevent anything from going wrong tomorrow, you must stay. I’ve already tampered with Gu An’an’s DNA results. Remember this, you’re going to be the General’s only daughter, forever.”

…

The next morning.

An’an slowly opened her eyes. It was still dark outside, only around 5am but Lu Yan had already woken up beside her.

“Ah Yan, are you leaving now?”

An’an sat up, rubbing her sleepy eyes with her balled up fists.

Lu Yan stretched his hand out, pinching her supple cheeks before leaning over to kiss the widow’s peak on her forehead. “Sleep some more, I’m going to have to head back to the army base now. I’m going for training in the jungle today, stay in this room and don’t wander around, I’ve assigned my men to protect you.”

An’an sleepiness instantly dissipated, she could sense the danger that was coming up very soon. It was going to be a stormy day. “You’re going for training in the jungle?”

“Mm.” Lu Yan nodded his head, planting multiple kisses on her forehead, not getting enough of her. “Someone’s getting impatient and can no longer sit still. Baby, I’m sorry you’ve had to suffer so much during this time. Wait until I’m back from the jungle, I will never let you suffer even the slightest hint of grievance in the future.”
