Chapter 55
When Qiao Suisui couldn't contact Lan Ze, Laiboli was right beside her.
He moved into the small building and lived in the room next to the master bedroom on the second floor.
"Strange..."
She hung up the unanswered video call, turned her head, and asked Laiboli: "You came from the Huangting, haven't you seen Lan Ze?"
Laiboli shook his head with a smile, "No, what's wrong?"
She thought about it and didn't say that she was going to register with Lan Ze today, just said it was nothing. Laiboli's eyes darkened, and he pulled her hand to help her sit down properly.
"Shouldn't you be very busy recently?"
Qiao Suisui turned her head to look at him, seeing him in a relaxed manner, his arm resting behind her chair, looking from a distance as if he were circling her in his arms, the possessive meaning obvious.
"Everything is handled, don't worry. I want to accompany you and the children."
He touched her belly, his expression gentle, somewhat curious.
"Do you think they can hear our voices?"
According to the human development cycle, in this late pregnancy stage, children should have ears, but she didn't know about beastmen.
"What do you want to say to them?"
Laiboli hugged her waist, pecking her lips one by one, smiling dotingly.
"I want to warn them to come out obediently and not make my Suisui too tired."
Suddenly, the little ones in her belly seemed to understand and kicked her lightly.
"It seems like they moved." Laiboli watched with novelty, his hand sticking to her belly and touching it.
"Suisui, after the children are born, will you go back to the Huangting with me? I promise to let them get the best education and care. Be my empress, okay?"
She was startled, not expecting him to say this suddenly, but since they were talking about it, Qiao Suisui also wanted to make things clear.
"Ashi, I don't want to live in the Huangting."
Laiboli kissed her white and tender fingertips, smiling gently: "You don't like it? What kind do you like? I can rebuild it."
"No, I think it's very good here. This is the place that belongs to me."
He lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, then still said with a smile: "Of course this place belongs to you, but I'm afraid I won't be able to come here to accompany you every day later. Otherwise, will you go to the Huangting to live for a few days, and come back whenever you want to?"
It sounded like a very humble request, but Qiao Suisui still shook her head.
"Ashi, you can take the children, but I don't want to be your empress."
Laiboli's smile froze on his lips. He took a breath before saying: "Why?"
"I have things I want to do myself."
"Does being my empress conflict with the things you want to do? You have supreme glory and power, the entire Aosilan is yours, you can do whatever you want." He raised his volume unconsciously, realized his tone was a bit urgent, frowned in annoyance, lowered his voice, and held her hand, saying: "I'm sorry, I was too anxious just now. Suisui, I hope you can consider it, don't refuse me so quickly."
She knew that it was clearly not suitable to continue talking at this time, so she nodded, only saying let's talk about it later. Laiboli saw her expression fade, his breathing stagnated, and his heartbeat became irregular. I don't know why, but he suddenly remembered Lan Ze's last words—
Between you, no result is the best result.
He was unwilling.
He did all this to give her a better life and let her stay by his side...
Laiboli couldn't stand her coldness toward him, grabbed Qiao Suisui who was about to leave, held her face, and kissed her.
She didn't like this passive feeling, struggled to push him away, but couldn't exert any strength at all.
He added all his longing from the past few days to this kiss, fierce and lingering.
Suddenly, the person in his arms gave a delicate cry. Laiboli panted and looked at her, seeing her frozen in place without moving, and was suddenly scared to death.
"Suisui, what's wrong? Is there anywhere you're not feeling well?"
She bit her lip somewhat embarrassedly, looked down and saw her skirt was wet, and said: "My water broke."
Laiboli immediately picked her up horizontally and brought her into the delivery room. At this moment, Luka happened to come up from the first floor. Seeing this scene, he knew she was about to give birth. He immediately called the medical team up, and after arranging everything, his back was completely wet with nervousness.
When Luka entered, Laiboli had already helped her change her clothes. At this moment, Qiao Suisui was sitting in a circular bathtub, the water temperature was just right, and Laiboli was hugging her from behind, constantly comforting her in a low voice.
"It's okay, it's okay, it will be over soon, don't be afraid."
The professional doctors of the medical team entered, and the midwife was also on the side. Qiao Suisui felt dozens of gazes looking at her, which was really embarrassing.
"Don't... don't have so many people..."
She looked at Luka pleadingly. The man was both worried and afraid, watching her sweating from pain, willing to promise her anything, but also knowing that he must ensure the safety of her delivery process.
"Luka, let them go out." Qiao Suisui pulled his arm, her voice trembling with pain. Laiboli couldn't bear to see her like this and said directly: "Leave only one, everyone else go out."
Luka let the others stand by at the door, in case there was any problem, they could come in in time. Now Qiao Suisui could finally wait for delivery with peace of mind.
After the initial contractions, the system turned on the pain-blocking mode, which made her feel much better. Only then did she have the energy to notice that Luka's hands were shaking very badly. She grabbed his hand and shook it, signaling him not to worry. Luka kissed the tip of her nose and gently stroked her hair.
The two men were more nervous than her. Laiboli kept hugging her, constantly kissing her forehead, coaxing her, afraid she would be in pain, wanting to talk to her to distract her, but afraid of disturbing her delivery. Luka kept holding her hand, and as long as she exerted force, he would hold it tightly, as if passing strength to her through his hand.
She relaxed her body under the guidance of the midwife, exerting force when she should, and resting when she should. Even without pain, she was tired and covered in sweat, her hair sticking to her neck, her cheeks flushed.
Just like that, she gave birth for four hours, and the cubs came out one after another.
Qiao Suisui heard the system broadcasting constantly—
