"..." Gu Lingyu, who was pushed out the door, looked completely bewildered, but still obediently returned to her room and came back in an instant with a different identity.
After sending the person away, Shen Wuqiu couldn't help but reflect on herself, feeling that her temper had been a bit inexplicable these past two days, wondering if it was because her period was about to start.
Speaking of her period, she got annoyed again. Her period, which is usually very punctual, was a whole week late this time. She wondered if it was because she had been doing too much physical labor lately.
It's all Gu Lingyu's fault, that little vixen.
Shen Wuqiu couldn't sleep any longer. When she saw the white cat return, she immediately hugged it and complained, "You've been in heat for a month now, and you're still going out every day..."
After complaining, she turned the white cat over and rubbed her belly. "Tell me honestly, do you have any stray kittens here?"
Meow~~
"It's best if it's not." Shen Wuqiu thought for a moment, then checked her breasts again. Her breasts were still the same as before, and she breathed a slight sigh of relief, but couldn't help thinking, "You're not infertile, are you?"
Meow~~~
Seeing the white cat's fur standing on end, Shen Wuqiu was amused by her own thoughts, and a new idea popped into her mind—should she really introduce Gu Lingyu to a so-called partner and have her bring back a child?
Perhaps it was because she had been thinking about it all day, she had a dream that night. She forgot the details of the dream, but she remembered one scene:
One second the children were calling her "Mommy," and the next they suddenly turned into cats...
This is absolutely unbelievable.
That's terrifying.
So much so that when Shen Wuqiu felt nauseous as soon as she opened her eyes, she thought it was because the terrifying dream had caused her stomach to spasm.
However, she couldn't stop vomiting.
"Qiuqiu, what's wrong with you?"
"I don't know, it just happened like this when I woke up this morning."
"Is your stomach upset? Should you get it checked out?"
"Hmm, let's take another look."
Shen Wuqiu didn't really think much about this sudden nausea and vomiting. She figured that if there was anything wrong with her, it was just that her stomach was sensitive during the spring and summer transition.
Unexpectedly, the little girl, who had been silent all morning, touched her stomach and then delivered a blow to her head:
"Sister, you're pregnant."
"Got it? What is it?"
"Little one."
"..."

Chapter 24 Pregnancy Fruit
Nonsense.
As a 28-year-old single woman who has never been in a relationship, how could I possibly have a child, let alone sleep with a man or even hold his hand?
Could it be that I have a special talent—self-fertilization?
Ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous.
Shen Wuqiu slapped Gu Lingyu's hand away and said angrily, "Don't talk nonsense."
Gu Lingyu looked tense and serious. "I'm not talking nonsense."
Shen Wuqiu grabbed her hand, which was about to touch her stomach again, and laughed angrily, "Little sister, did your teacher or your mother never tell you how a child comes to be?"
"Of course."
"Since you know, then let me ask you, I've never even had a boyfriend, so how could I have a baby?"
Gu Lingyu blinked. "Why do I need a boyfriend?"
"..." Shen Wuqiu looked at her speechlessly, "So you have no idea how the child came to be, right?"
"Of course I know."
"...Then tell me, how did I come to have my child?"
"You ate the fruit."
"..." Shen Wuqiu thought she had misheard. "What did you just say?"
Gu Lingyu looked at her, hesitated for a few seconds, and then said truthfully, "Because my sister ate the pregnancy fruit."
What did you eat?
"Pregnant fruit".
"...What fruit?"
"Pregnant fruit".
"...Pregnant what?"
"Pregnant fruit".
"..." Shen Wuqiu stared intently at her. "What is that thing?"
"It's the fruit that makes people pregnant and give birth."
“…Huh?” Shen Wuqiu heard every word Gu Lingyu said clearly, but she couldn’t understand the meaning of the whole sentence. “Are you making up a story for me?”
Gu Lingyu pursed her lips and did not answer.
When she fell silent, Shen Wuqiu panicked inexplicably. "Why aren't you saying anything?"
Gu Lingyu looked at her and said, "You ate the pregnancy fruit on your own initiative. I didn't want you to have a baby."
In an instant, all the strange things the little girl had said to her before flashed through her mind, and Shen Wuqiu's tense body suddenly relaxed. She let go of Gu Lingyu's hand, looked down at her stomach, and still felt that this was a fantasy.
"How is that possible? How could there possibly be a fruit in the world that can make someone pregnant?"
Gu Lingyu pursed her lips. "For three thousand years, our clan has relied on this fertility fruit to conceive offspring."
Weird.
That's absolutely bizarre.
Shen Wuqiu secretly pinched her palm; it hurt. It wasn't a dream.
Since it wasn't a dream, then there must be something wrong with the person in front of her. Shen Wuqiu took a deep breath, determined not to let the person's nonsense lead her astray. "Don't you think what you're saying is absurd?"
Gu Lingyu's eyes remained fixed on her stomach. Instead of answering her directly, she said something that startled her: "Sister is amazing. There's more than one baby here."
"..." Shen Wuqiu felt nauseous and quickly covered her mouth and ran to the bathroom.
Shen Wuqiu vomited violently again, clutching the toilet. She was convinced that she had truly been terrified into vomiting.
How could it be morning sickness?
How is that possible?
Gu Lingyu stood guard at the bathroom door, listening to the sounds of vomiting inside. She had mixed feelings; she was happy that her pregnancy had not been in vain, but also felt sorry for Shen Wuqiu's excessive morning sickness, and was also uneasy about her partner's refusal to accept the fact that she was pregnant.
"Sister, are you alright?"
Shen Wuqiu was now terrified at the mere sound of her voice. "Get out."
Gu Lingyu refused to leave, saying, "Sister, don't worry. Mother said the more severe the morning sickness, the healthier the baby is. It will get better in a few days..."
Screw the brat.
Screw the healthier you are.
Shen Wuqiu's good manners completely collapsed. She opened the door and stared coldly at Gu Lingyu, "I don't want to hear a single word from you right now. Get out."
My fierce older sister is so scary.
However, my mother said that being pregnant is a very hard thing, and it's easy to get angry.
A good partner should be more tolerant during such times.
Thinking about it this way, Gu Lingyu no longer felt wronged, and said to Shen Wuqiu's belly, "Babies, you have to be good..."
"Get out!"
"Thank you for your hard work, sister..."
Before she could finish speaking, Shen Wuqiu slammed the door shut.
For an entire day, Shen Wuqiu didn't leave her room; she just lay in bed questioning the meaning of life.
The more you doubt, the more life seems meaningless.
So much so that when she heard the familiar meowing outside in the evening, she was in no mood to pay attention. She just watched as the white cat scratched open the screen window little by little and jumped in, without feeling surprised or taken aback.
After the white cat jumped in, it rolled around on its little towel before jumping onto the bed. It lay at the foot of the bed and stared at Shen Wuqiu for a while before tentatively approaching her.
Shen Wuqiu looked at her expressionlessly.
The white cat stopped in the middle of the bed and continued to lie down and examine Shen Wuqiu. When she did not react, it got up and continued to approach her.
Shen Wuqiu still didn't stop her, so she simply stepped into Shen Wuqiu's arms with cat-like steps. After standing there for a while, seeing that Shen Wuqiu still didn't react, she found a comfortable place to curl up.
Shen Wuqiu lay motionless on the bed, lifeless.
"Meow~"
Hearing the meow, her eyes flickered, and she reached out to stroke the white cat's head.
As if encouraged, the white cat stuck out its little tongue and began to lick her face.
The uncomfortable, tingling, itchy feeling persisted, but Shen Wuqiu didn't stop her. Instead, she turned her head and buried her face in the white cat's fur.
Every word Gu Lingyu said was utterly absurd, yet she couldn't bring herself to ignore it.
