Cui Du had never felt as self-reproachful and guilty as he did at this moment.
"I'm so useless." Cui Du's eyes glistened with tears, his voice trembling: "Shao Hua, you are pregnant, yet have to work hard every day. I can't help you with anything. I'm truly useless!"
Jiang Shaohua said gently: "How can you blame yourself for this? Cui Du, this is the path I have chosen for myself. I have always known that this road is extremely difficult, filled with hardships and thorns, requiring a tremendous amount of energy and effort."
"On the day in Jinluan Palace when I declared that I wanted to be the Empress, I was already prepared."
"In doing so, it burdens the child in my womb. Her mother is busy every day and has no time to care for her."
Upon hearing these words, Cui Du did not smile, his eyes turned even redder, tears rolling from the corners of his eyes: "You are too exhausted. Where in the world is there an eight-month pregnant woman who works so hard?"
Yes indeed! So tiring!
