"Sister, why haven't I always been by your side? Why am I here alone?"
Chu Xingnuo was hoarse when asked.
As expected, telling one lie requires countless lies to cover it up. Now she deeply understood this and tried hard to think of a response.
They heard footsteps and it seemed impossible to get out, so the three of them hid in the flowers.
Jin Yu: "Do you smell any strange smell? Could it be that some foreign beast has sneaked in?"
As the words fell, the footsteps got closer and closer, and Chu Xingnuo didn't dare to breathe.
Xu Zhuo: "There are many orcs coming and going in the Beast King Castle. It is not normal to have strange smells. These flowers are not liked by males except females."
"You have something else to do, so go ahead."
Chu Xingnuo felt that the voices of the two males sounded familiar, and he had the urge to take a peek, but he didn't have the courage.
"Why are you in such a hurry? You've finally come here. I'll take you to appreciate the flowers here." Jin Yu leaned over and pretended to pick flowers.
Xu Zhuo grabbed Jin Yu's hand and said, "Let's go. I remembered something urgent."
Jin Yu wanted to say something but was dragged away. Qing Mo watched them go far away before Chu Xing stood up. Just as she was about to stand up, she heard footsteps and sat down on the ground again.
Jin Yu broke free from Xu Zhuo and said, "I really think there are strange orcs here."
Xu Zhuo pulled him back again: "Let's go, I really have something to do."
As the two were pulling each other, Jin Yu was kicked in the back. This time he didn't care about the flowers, but looked for who kicked him.
Small stones flew towards them without warning like a rain of stones, and Jin Yu's attention was instantly attracted and annoyed.
Takizawa took advantage of the chaos and pulled her out through the hole they came in through.
I didn't bring any flowers with me, and I was really scared.
Takizawa patted the dust off her clothes from behind: "Are you scared?"
Chu Xingno shook his head: "It's quite exciting."
Qing Mo didn't make them wait long before coming out. He also brought the flowers he had picked earlier and gave them to Chu Xingnuo, and moved the stone back to its original place.
The three of them left quickly.
After returning to the stone building and placing the flowers, I went to my new residence.
This is a three-story area, and each stone building has a small balcony on the second floor.
The yard was filled with freshly washed clothes and animal skins.
Lan He was still sitting in front of the container, washing diligently. When she saw Chu Xingnou coming back, she started to complain: "Nonou and the others bullied me."
Chu Xingnuo rubbed his head and said, "How can my poor little scorpion be bullied? Go and fight them."
When Lan He heard this, he realized who he could beat and decided to accept his fate: "I'd better wash it."
Takizawa and Qingmo squatted down and helped wash.
Lan He looked at the floating clothes and said, "Don't stay invisible all the time, it will scare the beast."
Qing Mo said faintly: "I don't want to be like this, but I have always been like this."
Lan He said: "I could see it when you were sleeping last night."
Qing Mo said stupidly: "You want me to sleep all the time?"
While they were chatting, Chu Xingnuo went upstairs and went straight to the bedroom with a balcony. Sure enough, everything she had was placed in this room.
It had been a long time since I last felt the soft big bed. Without thinking, I jumped onto it. Halfway through, Nan Xi held me in her hands like a chicken.
She turned around in confusion. When did he appear behind her? She didn't notice him at all.
"Be careful with your stomach. It's okay if the baby is hurt, but if the baby is hurt, your body will be hurt too. Be careful." Nan Xi let her go after she finished explaining.
Chu Xingnuo pressed on the mattress and it sank a little. He repeated this to show him that the mattress was not hard.
Nan Xi smiled as she watched her attempt to prove that the mattress was soft: "I saw it, but it still doesn't work."
I was able to do everything when I was pregnant with Qianyu and Wen Ning, but why did I become so cautious when it comes to my second child?
Chu Xingnuo glanced at him resentfully, turned around and stroked her belly which had not changed at all, and whispered, "I should have known that I was pregnant with a snake egg. Snake eggs have a short gestation period and can be born in 30 days. Maybe it has been born by now."
She only felt her shoulders sink, and a slightly cool breath sprayed on her ears, as warm as a stream of water flowing into her ears:
"There are many species of snake beasts, and some do lay eggs in 20-30 days. Nono may be disappointed. The gestation period of pythons is about 90 to 120 days, which is not short at all."
"And the incubation time is longer than other species, taking 55-61 days."
These words were like a blow to her. It was true that the knowledge in books should be believed, but not completely believed either.
How come the gestation period is longer than that of foxes and lynxes!
The time it takes to incubate the eggs is enough to produce another clutch.
Chu Xingnuo was not very happy: "Which race among you has the shortest gestation period?"
Nan Xi explained to her one by one: "The gestation period of foxes and lynxes is not much different. The gestation period of lions, pythons, and tigers is similar, all over a hundred days. The shortest is for scorpions, which is about 40 days."
The corners of Chu Xingnuo's mouth twitched uncontrollably. Forget it, just accept your fate since you're pregnant. More than three months is indeed a long time for her, but it is much shorter than being pregnant with a human cub.
Yan Ye, who was hanging clothes in the closet, suddenly said, "If you don't like having cubs so much, don't have any more after this one. It's enough to have one or two litters of cubs. If there are more, we will neglect them. Don't let the happy little ones become unhappy."
"That's pretty pitiful, it's better not to have a baby."
Chu Xingnuo knew that Yan Ye was thinking about his childhood experiences again. Sometimes he wanted to comfort her but didn't know how. An unfortunate childhood is really hard to heal.
She made her attitude clear: "I am not against having babies, nor do I like it. I just want to let nature take its course. I don't like being forced to have babies. I won't be proud of having many babies. My pride lies in having my beastly husband who loves me by my side."
"But the cubs chose me to be their mother. That is the gift from the Beast God and also the testimony of my love for you. I will love every cub equally."
"Let them feel that their lives are worth living."
Hearing these words made Yan Ye feel a little sad. He wished his mother had thought the same way at the beginning.
Chu Xingnuo suddenly changed the subject: "I think the furry and soft little tiger is also very cute. I kind of want one."
Hearing this, Yan Zhihong's eyes seemed to be twinkling with stars, and the corners of her mouth rose uncontrollably: "Two big tigers can't satisfy you, and you still want a little tiger. How greedy."
Chu Xingnuo noticed that his expression had changed significantly, and she snorted at him tenderly.
Yan Ye: "Hmph, it's useless, there are only two of them."
Nan Xi made the bed and wanted to lie her down on it to rest.
Chu Xingnuo dodged flexibly and blinked her big watery eyes: "I'm not sleepy and don't want to sleep."
Before Nan Xi could speak again, Mozhizhi's voice came from downstairs.
"Xingno!"
Chu Xingnuo appeared on the balcony with a smile on her face and called out, "Sister Zhizhi, come up quickly."
After a moment, Mozhizhi appeared at the bedroom door and excitedly went forward to hug her.
