Chapter 266 Lisa is pregnant
It should be said that as soon as Princess Lisa and her entourage arrived, all sorts of people started asking Li Xianda who they had been doing business with recently.
Although they might not necessarily be from the United States, or could be competitors, it's always better to be safe than sorry, and Zhou Hanzhang didn't want anything else to happen at this juncture.
After all, according to Princess Lisa, the King of the United States is a pervert, and who knows what he might do.
Princess Lisa knew her own situation and, without being modest with Zhou Hanzhang and the others, directly listed the spices and ingredients she needed.
Li Xianda readily arranged for people to make the purchase.
During the time he spent buying ingredients, Zhou Hanzhang briefly mentioned some things he had told Princess Lisa and her husband earlier.
"Princess Lisa".
“Mr. Zhou, you can just call me Lisa. I’m not a princess anymore. To be honest, I don’t want to be a princess. I just want to be an ordinary person.”
Princess Lisa glanced at Robert and said, "I'll spend the rest of my life with Robert."
Robert looked back affectionately, and Li Xianda and Zhou Hanzhang exchanged glances, feeling completely overwhelmed by their public display of affection.
Zhou Hanzhang coughed lightly. "Lisa, it's like this, I've found the person. He's in our capital. He'll ask me to take you there tomorrow, but there's something I need to make clear to you first, so you can all be aware of the situation."
"You tell me, you tell me."
Both Lisa and Robert were very excited when they heard the news.
"Here's the thing, that master of disguise has two methods. One is to teach you the techniques of disguise, but this is easy to be discovered, and it's not something you can learn in a short time."
Another option is to completely change your original appearance so that people can't recognize you. It's like getting a new face, but that requires surgery and takes about a month to recover.
Both methods would require him to pay a large sum of money.
Zhou Hanzhang wouldn't do charity for others. Although her family was rich, this was ultimately Princess Lisa's business, and they weren't short of money.
"No problem, no problem."
The couple exchanged another glance, and Zhou Hanzhang noticed the hesitation on their faces. "It's alright, I'll take you there tomorrow. You two can discuss it carefully tonight."
Robert looked serious. "Would there be any danger if I had surgery on my face?"
Zhou Hanzhang dared not make any guarantees. "Actually, everything carries risks, but that person seems quite capable. He didn't tell me what dangers he might face. Why don't we ask him tomorrow?"
“Okay, if possible, we all want to completely change this face so we never have to live this life of hiding again.”
"Row."
"Please sit for a while, I'll go to the kitchen to prepare some things."
Princess Lisa left the three of them in the living room and went to the kitchen.
Zhou Hanzhang noticed that her eyes were still red, so he said to the other two, "I'll go see if there's anything I can do to help."
Robert quickly stopped him, "No, no, how can we ask you to help? We agreed to cook some hometown dishes for you two to try."
"But is it really okay to let Lisa do it all by herself..."
"It's alright, it's alright. We always do this at home. Lisa is in charge of preparing the ingredients, and I'll cook. We've already divided the work."
Li Xianda clearly found it strange, "You haven't bought a single servant or anything all these years?"
“In our situation, we dare not let anyone else stay by our side. If that person is not of good character, the blow to us will be fatal. So, even though we have worked hard all these years, my wife and I have not bought anyone.”
Robert watched Lisa bustling about, "Besides, this is quite a bit of fun for us as a couple."
Zhou Hanzhang, observing that Robert and Lisa's argument didn't seem like a typical quarrel, was genuinely curious. "I thought I heard some arguing outside the door just now. Is there something they can't resolve?"
"Oh, you two had a fight?"
Li Xianda looked incredulous. "You two have such a good relationship, why are you arguing?"
Speaking of this, Robert smiled wryly, "I don't know how to put it. Actually, this should be a happy occasion for us, but..."
Seeing that he only gave half the answer, Li Xianda became increasingly frustrated. "What is it?"
Lisa is pregnant.
"Congratulations! Isn't this the best thing ever?"
Li Xianda was even more puzzled.
Zhou Hanzhang tugged at him, "Cousin, let Robert continue."
Robert looked worried, showing no joy whatsoever at the prospect of becoming a father. "Lisa had that one back then, that one..."
He simply couldn't treat that monstrous child as his own. "She ran away before she had fully recovered from giving birth, and the king kept sending people to track us down, which meant that Lisa never got to fully recover, so she hasn't had any children all these years."
We didn't plan to have children because Lisa's health couldn't handle a second child; it could very well kill her. So, I didn't want to keep him.
"what?"
Zhou Hanzhang patted Li Xianda on the shoulder, glared at him, and then said to Robert, "Lisa disagrees, doesn't she?"
Robert became even more worried when this was mentioned, "Yes, strictly speaking, this is her first child."
He lowered his voice, "The monster had been tormenting Lisa, and she often had nightmares. But after this child came, Lisa stopped having nightmares. So Lisa believes that this child was sent by God to save us, and she must keep him."
"Is this what you were just talking about?"
Robert nodded. "I wouldn't dare take even the slightest risk to Lisa."
Zhou Hanzhang finally understood why Lisa's eyes were so red. He asked, "What mother in the world would be willing to give up her child?"
He is still a child with the one he loves.
Li Xianda asked the crucial question, "Have you seen a doctor?"
"We had already seen many doctors before we came here, and they all said that the child might not survive, and even if she did, Lisa might pay with her life."
For me, whether or not there is a child is irrelevant. All I want is for Lisa to be by my side. I could never abandon Lisa for a child that hasn't even arrived yet.
I've talked to her about this many times, and every time we bring it up, we end up arguing. Every time we argue, Lisa cries, and I don't know what to do anymore.
Li Xianda looked at Zhou Hanzhang and said, "How about we let that oddball come and take a look at Lisa?"
"Who?"
Zhou Hanzhang didn't react for a moment.
