Chapter 2871: Why Does My Wife Follow Me Every Day 32

~9 min read 1,621 words

Under Jin Chen's several subtle hints and insistence, Yun Jin finally agreed to go to Underground Arena Area A for a full physical examination.

Although he firmly believed in his heart that he had Bao Bao in his belly, Jin Chen's worry and the constant chirping urging of the two rabbits every day still made him waver.

What if…

What if Bao Bao isn't healthy?

He must bear responsibility for whatever could restrain Jin Chen's existence.

The examination was arranged in the medical room at the deepest part of Area A.

Here the equipment is complete, the environment clean, a place Yun Jin used to come to for occasional physical checkups.

The doctor was a middle-aged man wearing glasses; he had Yun Jin lie on the examination bed, connected the various instruments, then began operating.

Jin Chen stood to the side, quietly watching.

Finally, after the series of checks were done, the doctor looked at the scrolling data and images on the screen, operated for a while, then stopped, took off his glasses, rubbed his forehead, and showed a troubled expression.

He gestured for the nurse to leave, then approached Yun Jin and spoke carefully: "Mr. Yun, based on the preliminary physiological indicators and hormone levels… no pregnancy-related signals were detected."

The color drained somewhat from Yun Jin's face; he pressed his lips and insisted: "Impossible. I can feel it."

"Mr. Yun, the physiology of rabbit beastmen… you know, they are prone to false pregnancy reactions; once emotions fluctuate too greatly, hormone levels become disordered, and the instruments may fail to detect the true situation."

"You mean," Yun Jin interrupted, his voice tightening, "because I'm too nervous right now, the exam can't detect it?"

The old doctor felt somewhat uneasy under his gaze: "I cannot rule out that possibility."

"How about… having Mr. Jin Chen wait outside in the lounge for a moment? You stay here alone, try to completely relax, calm your mind, and we'll do another check."

Yun Jin: "……"

He lay on the examination bed, hand still guarding his lower abdomen, covering the surging emotions in his eyes.

Lost, embarrassed, self-doubting.

After a while, he lifted his head and nodded at the doctor: "Okay."

Yun Jin stood up, walked to the glass partition, and knocked.

Jin Chen immediately looked over, tilted his head, Yun Jin opened the small door beside him, stepped out, walked to Jin Chen's face, and kissed his chin.

"The doctor said we need to do another, more precise check, which might take a little longer," Yun Jin's voice remained fairly steady, though his fingertips were a bit cold, "Could you wait for me outside in the lounge for a while?"

"It's very safe there; I've had snacks prepared. I'll finish soon, and we'll go home together."

Jin Chen glanced at him, then lifted his gaze, his eyes meeting the old doctor's inside for a moment through the glass.

It made the experienced old doctor's heart skip inexplicably, a chill running up his back.

Jin Chen withdrew his gaze, lowered his head to kiss Yun Jin's forehead, and said gently: "Okay, I'll wait for you."

"Don't be nervous; no matter the result, it's fine."

"Mm." Yun Jin nodded firmly, released him, walked back to the examination room, and closed the door.

Outside the door, Jin Chen did not go to the lounge.

He stood in the hallway, his gaze sweeping over the tightly closed doors on either side.

Area A is Yun Jin's turf; everything here is arranged according to his preferences, looking cozy like a hallway in an ordinary residential district.

But it hides many things.

Yun Jin's secrets, the Underground Arena's secrets, and those gene data.

Jin Chen came to an archive room at the end of the hallway, inside were metal file cabinets with labels on the doors, storing various documents and materials in sorted categories.

Jin Chen walked in and casually pulled open a cabinet door.

Inside was a thick stack of gene analysis reports, the paper edges already slightly yellowed, obviously aged; he pulled out one and flipped it open.

At the same time, a tendril of his divine sense stretched toward the medical room.

Everything was normal.

Until…

Jin Chen's finger, turning the documents, suddenly paused.

【Jin Chen sir, what's wrong?】999 confused.

【Something dirty snatched my rabbit.】

As the words fell, he strode out of the archive room and hurried toward the medical room.

The medical room's door was tightly shut, but Jin Chen kicked it open.

Inside, it was empty.

The examination bed was bare, the instruments still running, the screen displaying incomplete test data.

Yun Jin and the doctor had vanished, as if evaporated into thin air; only the window stood wide open, letting cold wind pour in from outside, fluttering the curtains.

Jin Chen stood at the doorway, his gaze instantly turning cold.

Behind him, several of Yun Jin's subordinates rushed over at the sound, seeing the empty medical room, they all froze.

"Where is Mr. Yun?" one of them blurted out.

Jin Chen turned, looked at that subordinate, and asked: "How do I get to the territory of the big boss of Area D?"

"From Emergency Passage A7, it leads straight to the outskirts of Area D, but that requires permission from Mr. Yun or the big boss…" the subordinate stammered.

"Lead the way."

The subordinate gritted his teeth, thinking of how much Mr. Yun valued this person, and ultimately chose to obey.

"……Yes! Please follow me!"

——

At the same time, the deepest secret chamber of Underground Arena Area D.

Yun Jin was bound with his hands tied behind his back, his wrists and ankles locked in specially made shackles that flashed with a weak current, devices specifically used to suppress beastman power.

Yet his kneeling posture on the ground gave no sense of humility whatsoever.

Even though he was bound, his spine remained straight, his head slightly lifted, his blood-red pupils showing only indifferent mockery.

The aura of a high-ranking beastman emanated from him; although suppressed by half by the shackles, it still made everyone in the secret room feel their breathing tighten.

In the center of the secret room stood a person.

He was a man about fifty years old, also wearing a red mask, but the mask's pattern was more intricate and ancient.

The boss stood before Yun Jian, looking down at him.

I never thought, Yun Jian, that you'd have a day like this.

Yun Jian tugged at the corner of his mouth, meeting his gaze calmly, 'I didn't expect that either; after not seeing you for a while, you've become even more despicable.'

I heard you're pregnant," the boss continued, "for a human.

The boss sneered, 'For that ordinary person, you've repeatedly disrupted the balance, interfered in internal affairs, and even caused such a joke. You're just getting worse and worse, Yun Jian—you've lost all face of the high-ranking beastmen.'

What's more ridiculous is that you actually believed it.

Yun Jian, are you that starved for love? To the point of using such a ridiculous method to bind that human?

Yun Jian's eyelashes twitched, the coldness in his eyes deepening.

The boss waved his hand.

Beside him, the old doctor who had examined Yun Jian in Underground Arena Area A trembled as he stepped forward.

"Boss," the doctor's voice trembled, "the results of the second deep scan confirm…… Mr. Yun shows no signs of pregnancy; although the related hormone levels fluctuate, none reach the conception threshold,

"Mr. Yun, this is a mimetic physiological response triggered by extreme mental longing and anxiety—that is…… false pregnancy."

"False pregnancy," the boss repeated those two words, looking at Yun Jian with eyes like he was watching a joke, 'A illustrious high-ranking beastman, cold-blooded and ruthless, striking fear into all who hear his name—Mr. Yun would actually act like the lowest female rabbit, suffering false pregnancy from lovesickness? And still dream of giving offspring to a human? Yun Jian, hear yourself—isn't that ridiculous?'

Each of his words struck hard at Yun Jian's heart.

It wasn't because he mocked the false pregnancy, but because of his contempt for Jin Chen, both overt and covert.

The more he suffered inside, the more fragile his appearance became; yet beneath that fragility surged an even greater killing intent.

The kneeling doctor and several guards involuntarily shuddered, instinctively stepping back half a step.

The boss was still saying something.

But what Yun Jian was thinking about was something else.

The boss was right—all of this was because of Jin Chen.

Because I love Jin Chen, because I fear losing Jin Chen, because I want to bind Jin Chen by any means.

But……

Yun Jian lifted his eyes, looking at the boss.

Why must he be so passive?

Why must he, because of his status, live in constant fear each day, afraid that Jin Chen will encounter danger when he goes out, afraid that Jin Chen will be dragged into these dirty conflicts?

The Underground Arena seems calm on the surface, but underneath dark currents surge; various powers are intertwined, and Jin Chen has now been marked—he is destined to be unsafe.

As long as he becomes the true master of the Underground Arena, as long as he possesses absolute power and authority,

Jin Chen will truly be safe.

So he must rise to power, becoming the sole master of the Underground Arena.

The boss also keenly sensed the change in Yun Jian's aura, alarm bells ringing in his mind.

He had always feared Yun Jian's strength; such a madman, if he lashed out in desperation, the consequences would be unthinkable.

The boss watched Yun Jian lower his head, thinking to add fuel to the fire, to eliminate future trouble.
