Since Lan Xiangyuan has resisted to this extent, Nie Wan has nothing more to say.

She was indifferent to everyone and everything, but Lan Xiangyuan was perhaps the first person to follow her after her rebirth, or perhaps she had received some favors from her in the gray fog before her rebirth. In any case, her first priority when facing Lan Xiangyuan was not to dampen her expectations too much.

Nie Wan still leaned against the wooden bird's neck, her expression unchanged: "Since that's the case, you should calm down and not be afraid that what you did in the Cold Moon Immortal Palace will affect your parents."

"Of course I'm relieved." Seeing that Nie Wan hadn't gone into too much detail, Lan Xiangyuan breathed a sigh of relief and resumed her relaxed attitude. "Alright, stop interrogating me like that. Get up! Take me to level up!"

Nie Wan crossed her arms leisurely: "You think you can control me? Don't be in such a hurry to run away, keep talking."

"say what?"

"The border issue."

"That's it for the border issue, is there anything else to explain?"

"I mean the boundary between the China region and the Japan region."

Lan Xiangyuan was taken aback: "We've been trying to find that boundary line all along."

"What about the short flute and the long zither? How does he communicate with you now?"

"We rely on Sister Qin." Lan Xiangyuan knew what Nie Wan was going to ask, so she answered fluently, "Sister Qin is teaching children in the Seven Strings Clan. Ti Zi sent a team to accompany her. Brother Qin logs off once a day to report his situation to Sister Qin, and Sister Qin then logs back on to tell us."

Nie Wan nodded as she listened to each sentence, knowing that if Lan Xiangyuan didn't specifically mention it, it meant that the short flute and long zither hadn't encountered any emergency, and there was no need for her to ask further.

Lan Xiangyuan's eyes darted around, and she nudged Nie Wan with her elbow: "Speaking of which, there's something that's been bothering me for a long time."

Nie Wan lifted her eyelids to look into Qin's close eyes, and seeing her sly yet somewhat bewildered and embarrassed expression, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "Is Sister-in-law Qin pregnant?"

"Damn it!" Lan Xiangyuan couldn't help but curse, then quickly added, "No, not really, but some members have... some who had it before the game's release, some who had it after the game's release... all of them..."

As Lan Xiangyuan spoke, she unconsciously brought her hand to her nose and touched it again.

She felt that she had a bit of a hard life.

I don't even have much experience myself, yet I have to deal with so many people's fertility issues.

Nie Wan understood that she felt her life was miserable, and she also knew that this matter was indeed a big problem.

After the game was introduced, some people became less human, and some aspects of real life became distorted.

But in most real-life situations, people are still just ordinary people.

We must face the issues of birth, aging, illness, and death, as well as the issue of reproduction.

At the beginning of the game, many medical devices malfunctioned, causing many critically ill patients, the elderly, and pregnant women in labor to die as a result of the unforeseen circumstances.

However, after the discovery that entering the game would cause the real body to enter a state of stillness was widely publicized, many more people on the verge of death escaped by hiding in the game.

In the past few months, players have been busy changing jobs to escape the threat of losing ten lives.

Currently, the number of players who have changed jobs is already quite considerable, and major factions have also established basic frameworks and welfare systems after the Cold Moon Immortal Palace.

Once things stabilized a bit, people naturally had the time and inclination to return to dealing with real-world issues.

The first group to be resettled are the elderly, the infirm, and the disabled who have been in the game for months without logging off.

Especially pregnant women who are close to giving birth and whose bellies start to ache as soon as they step out of the delivery room.

After the official authorities and Hanyue Immortal Palace discovered the two secrets of transferring skills to reality and driving artifacts, they began to try to deal with these vulnerable players whose lives were in danger.

But people still dare not easily touch pregnant women.

Because no one dares to gamble on whether the children born will also be dragged into the game.

"Actually, as far as I know, Sister Orange and the others don't want to log off at all."

Seeing the puzzled look in Nie Wan's eyes, Lan Xiangyuan quickly realized that she didn't know who Sister Chengzi was.

"Sister Orange works under Sister Nan. She's in charge of external publicity and negotiating business deals in Jingzhou. Before she joined the game, she was one of our clients, specializing in negotiating business deals with actors in the Beijing entertainment circle. You should remember her."

Nie Wan had absolutely no recollection of it.

She has many more memories than others, both random and random. More than a decade has passed since her life before the game arrived. Apart from her parents and relatives, she has almost completely forgotten what life was like before the game.

But there was no need to show it. She simply nodded in agreement with Lan Xiangyuan's words and then asked, "How many months pregnant is she?"

"The game started seven months ago, and now... the fragmented time she was offline in between adds up to about half a month. She's thirty-two, not considered an advanced maternal age, but she has mild supraventricular tachycardia. She originally planned to take a six-month break from work to focus on her pregnancy and have the baby, but then the game started. She's not in a rush to give birth, but I'm a little worried."

"What are you worried about? Is she affected in the game too?"

"No, it doesn't affect me in the game... at least not physically."

Nie Wan raised an eyebrow: "Is she very short-tempered?"

“A little.” Lan Xiangyuan said helplessly, “Sister Nan has brought up this issue with me many times. Sister Chengzi negotiates with people from other guilds every day, and it’s inevitable that she encounters some oddballs. She’s always angry, and on top of that, the pregnancy is always on her mind, so she’s a bit mentally broken. It’s okay now, because her husband is there to take the fall, but it’s hard to say whether it will get worse in the future.”

At this point, Lan Xiangyuan's worry deepened: "Sister Chengzi is actually one of the better cases out of all. Her husband is quite considerate and has already completed his job change, so he has more time to take care of her. The others are in much worse situations... Oh, and I have to complain about this! I really don't understand some people's thought processes. Even in this situation, they still want to have sex! Do they think that since the game has arrived, two people sleeping together won't result in anyone getting pregnant? They had their fun, but afterwards they anxiously asked me if they were pregnant because they hadn't had their period in a long time... I really want to say that they are definitely pregnant! They all have serious illnesses!"

Nie Wan patted her shoulder with great sympathy: "You've worked hard."

"Give me a raise because you know I work hard!"

"That won't work."

"You're such a cheapskate!" Lan Xiangyuan brushed away the hand that was on her shoulder, her expression turning serious. "So you should understand now, this is an urgent problem that must be solved. The medical system is slowly recovering, but it's just a drop in the ocean and can't handle so many things, and childbirth is a particularly unique situation."

“I know,” Nie Wan said. “Newborns are also pulled into the game. You shouldn’t be confused about this. Isn’t that how it is when the game begins?”

When the game was first introduced, many infants and toddlers were also drawn into it. Most of them ended up near their parents, but there were a few exceptions who were far away from their parents and died inexplicably.

However, the official response was quick, and they soon summarized a set of basic strategies for raising children in the game, and quickly brought the situation under control.

Lan Xiangyuan also contributed to the official publicity campaign about taking care of the child, so she shouldn't be unaware of the situation.

Lan Xiangyuan noticed Nie Wan's confusion and gave a wry smile: "Those who are born and those who aren't are different, after all. But you seem very certain that you know a solution?"
