Chapter 1019

"By the way, how much longer until I become an aunt?"

In the living room, Miss Luo Quan asked Mia, who was reading a book.

"My due date is in May. The doctor told me to go out and walk more during this time and soak up some sun."

Mia stroked her already sizable belly and smiled happily: "There are still more than four months left before the baby is born. Gao Liang stares at the calendar in the room every day, wishing he could tear it off to May sooner."

"Normal, every expectant father should be anxious and impatient during this time." Wen Xia cracked some melon seeds and replied.

However, she suddenly saw something and immediately frowned: "Luo Bao, your belly seems a bit big."

After saying this, she reached out and touched it directly.

As the one with the best figure in the house, Miss Luo Quan's S-curve was perfect, with a protruding chest and buttocks, and the connection in the middle was flat and symmetrical, almost without a trace of fat.

But now there was a clear bulge, and it wasn't because her clothes were too bulky; it was real and present.

After Wen Xia touched it for a while, she looked at Miss Luo Quan with eyes that seemed to have seen a ghost: "Luoluo, you've gained so much weight recently; the size of the fat on this belly is not small."

"How could there be fat?" Miss Luo Quan hadn't noticed this at all and thought Wen Xia was teasing her on purpose.

For this reason, she even stood up and lifted her coat, revealing the figure covered by her tight sweater.

It would have been fine if she hadn't lifted it, but with this lift, the bulge around her navel was exposed without reservation.

Wen Xia muttered: "This doesn't look as simple as just fat."

"Sister, your belly really seems a bit off." As a pregnant woman, Mia knew the difference between simple weight gain and a pregnancy belly.

Generally, when a girl gains weight, the fat around the waist will wrap around like a swimming ring, while a pregnancy belly will only inflate like a balloon centered on the navel, just like a man's beer belly, usually only manifesting on the front side of the body.

Miss Luo Quan now only looked big from the front, while still slim from the back.

"Oh my god, could it really be that I've been eating too well lately?" Miss Luo Quan finally noticed the changes in her figure and became anxious.

However, the reason for her anxiety was only because her perfect figure had been ruined; she regretted eating too many of the medicinal pills Bai Xingwei had given her, leading to excessive nutrition.

But from beginning to end, she hadn't thought in the direction of pregnancy.

After all, she knew clearly that it couldn't be pregnancy, but Wen Xia and Mia didn't know that; this sudden little belly looked just like she was over three months pregnant.

"Luoluo, how long has it been since your period?" Wen Xia sat down beside Miss Luo Quan with concern, her heart already beginning to guess if her friend had some unspeakable secret.

"Do you want me to take the sanitary pad from the bathroom trash can and show you?" Miss Luo Quan felt very speechless, "Think about it, you know this is impossible; it's just from eating too much."

As she spoke, Miss Luo Quan even raised both hands and patted her belly quickly, like a happy little seal.

However, after patting it only a few times, Miss Luo Quan felt a sharp pain in her little belly, as if a large hand had grabbed her intestines and was tearing them fiercely, hurting so much that she immediately curled up on the sofa and rolled around in pain.

Since practicing martial arts, she had almost never suffered any injuries, and the Immaculate Glazed Body had raised her body to the point of being invulnerable to swords and spears.

But never being injured or experiencing pain had also led to Miss Luo Quan's extremely low tolerance for pain; her reaction to any movement in her belly was extremely intense.

And when Wen Xia and Mia saw this scene, they were scared into a cold sweat.

Is a pregnant woman's belly patted like that?

Not to mention that Miss Luo Quan was a martial artist, whose strength was much, much greater than an ordinary person's.

Patting it like this normally would be fine, but doing this while pregnant was a disaster!

"My dear grandmother, you don't have to court death like this, do you?"

Wen Xia hurriedly turned over Miss Luo Quan, who was curled up like a shrimp on the sofa: "Don't shrink into a ball, be careful not to squeeze the baby!"

"Ouch... I really... didn't!" Miss Luo Quan was in extreme pain now, and hearing Wen Xia's words made her even more furious, and the result was that her belly hurt even more!

"Alright, alright, you didn't, you didn't. Don't be so agitated; being too agitated is bad for the ba... for your body." Wen Xia didn't dare to argue much with the pregnant woman, lest she disturb the fetus.

However, Miss Luo Quan didn't have a fetus, but she was really about to be angered to death by Wen Xia.

A matter that was originally groundless was being painted in darker colors by Wen Xia, and with Mia's empathetic exclamations, the whole house now knew she was "pregnant."

"Motherfxxker, which son of a bitch touched my sister and still doesn't give a damn? He's really not a man!"

Gao Liang was furious at this moment; seeing his sister in so much pain that tears were about to come out, he wished he could empty a magazine of bullets into that irresponsible man.

Luo Ni, on the other hand, was supporting her daughter with a heart full of pain, not knowing what to do to alleviate her pain.

At the same time, Luo Ni was very nervous; she was afraid that her daughter's mysterious boyfriend was the same kind of irresponsible scumbag as the young Eric.

She didn't want to see her daughter repeat her own mistakes.

Just as Luo Ni was pondering whether to notify Eric about this, Miss Luo Quan finally recovered.

Wen Xia pulled a tissue to wipe the fine beads of sweat from Miss Luo Quan's forehead, as if she were caring for a seriously ill patient.

Miss Luo Quan tilted her head, unable to laugh or cry, and said: "Everyone, don't listen to Wen Xia's nonsense. I'm not pregnant at all. If you don't believe me, we can go to the hospital for a checkup right now."

"Not pregnant? Then sister, why is your belly so big, and why is your reaction so exaggerated?" Gao Liang also noticed the change in his sister's figure at a glance and then raised his doubts.

"I don't know either; it might be related to my martial arts practice." Miss Luo Quan rubbed her belly gently and replied.

Just now, when the pain was intense, she noticed that the internal energy in her dantian was surging very violently, which was abnormal, so she guessed that the pain and the strange expansion of her belly were related to it.

But whether this was specifically the case, she wasn't sure herself; she had to go back to her room and ask the system to be certain.

Besides, wasn't there Ye Zhining? She believed she could also see the problem.

"Really not pregnant?" Luo Ni held her daughter's hand tightly, "We are all family here; there's no need to hide anything."

"I'm really not hiding anything." Miss Luo Quan said, unable to laugh or cry, "I've been staying at home during this period; I really don't have the time to commit such a crime."

"Then why are you reacting so exaggeratedly?" Luo Ni showed a disappointed expression after receiving her daughter's affirmative answer.

At this moment, her mood was incomparably complex; just a moment ago, she was afraid her daughter had been deceived by a scumbag, and now she was feeling regretful because she couldn't be a grandmother.

Miss Luo Quan looked at her mother speechlessly, not knowing what to say for a moment.

And when everyone in the living room saw that it was a false alarm, they complained a few times and then went back to their rooms.

"You too, making such a fuss just because my belly got a little fat, causing so much trouble!" Miss Luo Quan glared at Wen Xia and said unhappily.

"Is it wrong to care about you?"

Wen Xia knew she was in the wrong, but still whispered in defense: "Besides, who told you your belly suddenly got so big? Anyone who sees it would think it's pregnancy."

"Who told you that a big belly means pregnancy?" Miss Luo Quan was nearly angered to death by Wen Xia, "Can't it be that I've been overeating every day and got fat? Can't I just be simply getting fat?"

"Alright, alright, it's all my fault, okay?" Wen Xia saw that she couldn't win the argument and could only surrender and admit defeat.

"It's good that you know you're wrong." Miss Luo Quan didn't dwell on it and got up to go upstairs.

Before returning to her room, Miss Luo Quan specifically knocked on the door, lest Ye Zhining be in a rush and not have time to tidy up.

After waiting for ten seconds, she walked into the room and found Ye Zhining sitting at the computer desk surfing the internet.

"Dear consort, you have to knock to enter your own room?" Ye Zhining turned her head, finding Miss Luo Quan a bit funny.

"This is to give Your Majesty some private space." Miss Luo Quan explained with a chuckle.

"Why would my dear consort say that? I haven't done anything shameful!" Ye Zhining said with a face full of righteousness.

Miss Luo Quan nodded: "Then I must have thought too much."

"That's how it is." Ye Zhining revealed a smile, "By the way, dear consort, there seemed to be quite a commotion downstairs just now; did something happen?"

"Hey, this matter was just a misunderstanding."

Miss Luo Quan told Ye Zhining about the ridiculous thing that had just happened, and then added: "It was originally just a simple stomachache, but they made such a fuss that it made me seem like I was about to have a miscarriage."

"Hmm... this might not necessarily be a simple stomachache." Ye Zhining reached out and pinched Miss Luo Quan's wrist, starting to take her pulse like an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor.

Miss Luo Quan didn't speak when she saw this; she also wanted to know what was going on with her suddenly enlarged little belly and the stomachache.

After taking her pulse for more than ten seconds, Ye Zhining let go of her hand: "Congratulations, dear consort, you are pregnant!"

Miss Luo Quan looked at her speechlessly: "Your Majesty, can you not joke around."

Ye Zhining's eyes widened: "Bold! You dare not laugh when you know I'm joking!"

"Haha." Miss Luo Quan opened her mouth and twitched the corners of her lips.

"Alright, alright."

Ye Zhining waved her hand and said seriously: "The reason your belly is swollen is because too much true energy has accumulated in your dantian.

A person's dantian is just like a stomach; although it can continuously take in and put out, the storage space is limited. Once the speed of entering is far greater than the speed of exiting, the area where the dantian is located will be stretched, which manifests on the body as the belly getting bigger."

"Then why would this situation occur?" Miss Luo Quan asked nervously, "If something goes wrong with the dantian area, the consequences would be very serious, right?"

"That would certainly be very serious. If it were an ordinary person's dantian swollen to this extent, they would have been in too much pain to get out of bed long ago. If it were any larger, there might be a danger of the dantian exploding and all martial arts being wasted!"

Ye Zhining's words made Miss Luo Quan's back feel cold, but soon she said again: "Fortunately, my dear consort has the Immaculate Glazed Body, and your body's toughness is far beyond what ordinary martial artists can compare to. Even though your dantian has been stretched to this extent, you still didn't notice it at first."

"Then why was it so painful at the end?" Miss Luo Quan rubbed her belly with lingering fear; those few minutes just now really made her cry for her mother.

In her lifetime, she never wanted to experience this terrible feeling again.

"Isn't what my dear consort said nonsense?" Ye Zhining spread her hands, "A part of your body is already so swollen, and you still have to pat it like beating a drum; if you don't feel pain, who will?

It was precisely because of your patting just now that the excess true energy, which could have been slowly digested, began to surge chaotically in your body. If not treated in time, it would be minor damage to your meridians, and major would be falling into demonic cultivation!"

"Then what should I do?" Miss Luo Quan now understood the seriousness of the problem and asked Ye Zhining for a solution nervously.

"It's very simple; there is no problem that cannot be solved by a dual cultivation session. If there is, then do it a few more times."

Ye Zhining suddenly laughed, her smile resembling a certain predecessor: "In my earlier years, out of curiosity, I practiced the 'Great Law of Heaven and Earth Union and Yin-Yang Harmony.'

If one person practices this technique, it only has some effects of nourishing the face and maintaining youth, but if two people practice it, the effect is powerful; it guarantees that my dear consort will see your power increase rapidly while in a state of ecstasy.

Moreover, this technique has special functions for combing meridians and consolidating the foundation, which is just right for dealing with my dear consort's current dilemma."

"This 'Heaven and Earth Union and Yin-Yang Harmony,' why does it sound so improper?" Miss Luo Quan felt that Ye Zhining was trying to fool her, so she raised her doubts immediately.

"This is indeed an improper proper technique; the practice illustrations are all 18+."

Ye Zhining didn't deny this point, but at the same time said: "But its effect is also real; I absolutely haven't said a word of falsehood."

"I think Your Majesty just wants to take advantage of me." Miss Luo Quan had learned her lesson now and only believed half of what Ye Zhining said.

Especially things like dual cultivation, she couldn't believe a single word of that.

Even if it were really as magical as Ye Zhining said, Miss Luo Quan didn't intend to try it.

If it really didn't work, she would let the system decide. Besides, she still had the Immaculate Glazed Body; logically, she should be able to withstand it.

"Forget it, forget it. Since my dear consort doesn't trust me, then I'll act as if I never said this method."

Ye Zhining shook her head: "Who would have thought that my heart of love would be met with a cold shoulder; my dear consort has really broken my heart."

"Oh." Miss Luo Quan replied coldly.

"Alright, I won't tease you anymore."

Ye Zhining finally couldn't hold it in and laughed out loud: "Actually, solving the chaotic surge of true energy is very simple; it only requires a powerful external true energy as a guide to lead the true energy in your body to flow through the correct meridians and slow down the speed.

Just now, when I took my dear consort's pulse, I checked the problem and solved it while I was at it."

"Solved it!" Miss Luo Quan was shocked, and then immediately lifted her clothes.

Sure enough, the little belly that had been somewhat swollen had now subsided, and it no longer ached faintly.

"Dear consort, are you preparing to offer yourself to repay me?" Ye Zhining teased when she saw Miss Luo Quan suddenly lift her clothes.

"Offering myself can wait; however, I am indeed very grateful to Your Majesty."

Miss Luo Quan looked at Ye Zhining with gratitude: "How about this, I can promise Your Majesty one not-too-excessive request. What does Your Majesty think?"
