The dream tonight was completely at odds with Yan Su.
Originally, she had a wonderful day. After nightfall, Lin Jianheng fastened the shackles of love on her, and she became Lin Jianheng’s puppet, led to dance and intertwine with her.
Dancing a passionate dance named Lin Jianheng, they finally kissed until they fell asleep.
But the dream, filled with overwhelming emotions, charged straight into Yan Su’s heart.
It told her that she once had someone she cared about deeply.
She raised that person, taught them everything about the world.
She built that person’s flesh and blood; every inch of that person was carved with her mark.
Later, she made a mistake.
The bitter loneliness in the dream overwhelmed the cries, tearing Yan Su apart.
The movie-like plot flowed too quickly.
Yan Su was an observer, and before she could see clearly who that person was, or how many years they had spent together…
…their story vanished in an instant, followed by a long search.
Yan Su was also a participant. She was “attached” to her past self, emotions traversing time and space, lingering and passing between them.
Yan Su saw the Tanmo Star System. The iconic binary stars, one bright and one dim, one red and one white, were like fated lovers, entangled yet never to intersect.
They rotated constantly in the sky, dyeing the entire star system in a strange purplish-red hue, like the residual light of intermingling blood and mist, forever shrouded on the borderline of twilight.
In the dream, Yan Su stood on a shattered floating continent. Looking up, she could see the skeletal frames of starships floating in the air like wreckage. These relics of war were like dead whales, floating silently between the star orbits, covered in rust.
The Tanmo Star System was on the frontier of the Xuanxing Empire, and also the front line bordering the Third Empire.
Torn by war year-round, the star system’s gravitational field was chaotic, and both communication and positioning were extremely unstable.
Yet, the Yan Su in her memory raised her hand amidst the ruins, using her rule-controlling special ability to do the most exhausting and meaningless work.
She was digging. She wanted to find the person who had left.
No matter how she dug or searched, exhausting her special ability, traveling between countless planets…
Yan Su couldn’t find a single tile or brick bearing that person’s mark.
A sea of pain drowned her.
Yan Su awoke with a start, and then discovered two eggs inside her body.
A cold sweat broke out. Yan Su was petrified on the spot until her shoulders grew slightly cold, and a shiver brought her to her senses.
Wh-wh-wh-what should I do!
She was actually pregnant… just like that.
Although she really did want to have Lin Jianheng’s children, th-th-they were still in a master-pet relationship!
Who would want to have children with a pet!
Besides, they hadn’t even performed a deep marking.
Yan Su was in a panic. The two eggs of different sizes seemed to sense their mother’s aversion, provoking another wave of nausea in her.
Guwu... Yan Su curled up.
In the past, being repeatedly locked in confinement by Sigu never made her feel fear, only disgust.
But today, she finally knew what true terror looked like.
Could she take these two eggs out? Could she get rid of them?
Could she give birth to them secretly and then throw them away?
But they were also the Master’s children…
Yan Su’s tail had turned a deep sea blue, and her whole body curled up unconsciously, helpless and pitiful.
At this moment, her master wasn’t by her side. Yan Su saw the faint light from the bathroom and knew Lin Jianheng had gotten up in the night.
What should I do? What should I do, what should I do, what should I do…
Her breathing gradually quickened, sweat soaked her body, dirtying the entire bed.
At this very moment, Lin Jianheng was still in the bathroom, sitting and asking Xu Yuantong what she meant.
【Jianheng-heng, you can tell that Li Zhaoge likes you, so why would you doubt Yinsu’s feelings?】
Lin Jianheng, however, noticed that Xu Yuantong used “Yinsu”. This meant that was her sister’s real name. “Yan Su” was probably just an abbreviation, characters the amnesiac demon found based on the name she remembered.
【But she’s my succubus. She’s always been very intimate with me. We used to hug all the time, and we’d hold hands when we went out to eat or to work. I just… I didn’t think she had any unusual reaction to it. And】
Lin Jianheng typed slowly. She was truly recalling all her past moments with Yan Su in response to Xu Yuantong’s question.
【And she’s a succubus, right? She needs to feed from me anyway. We just have that kind of… very normal transactional relationship.】
Lin Jianheng was inevitably influenced by the “fickle succubus” trope.
She still remembered that pitiful netizen on the forum whose ex-wife ran off with their money and child, and who still had to pay child support.
Ultimately, the racial traits of succubi destined them to rarely bind themselves to a single person. To reduce risk, it was indeed better to find a few partners to avoid going hungry.
Xu Yuantong sent Lin Jianheng a string of ellipses.
【I thought you’d finally gotten a clue, but you’re still a block of wood! A huge block of wood! A super-invincible steel plate!】
Lin Jianheng poked Xu Yuantong with her spiritual power. 【Why the personal attacks! It’s not like you don’t know what I’ve been through.】
【But you returned to this world, right? It’s different from me. You should have memories of this world, shouldn’t you? There aren’t even any men in this world. Now that you realize you like her, how can you still suspect she doesn’t like you?】 Inadvertently, Xu Yuantong had gathered more information.
Lin Jianheng suspected the royal family was giving her special treatment.
But it also made sense in terms of their relationships. Xu Yuantong was using the current princess’s body, while Jian Heng’s identity was quite awkward—outwardly, she was just the idle, good-for-nothing second-generation heir of Jian Corporation.
【I just have my doubts. Isn’t that how it is when you like someone? You used to ask me ‘does she like me’ every day. Help me analyze it.】 In the past, Lin Jianheng had analyzed it quite seriously for Xu Yuantong.
Later, by the time Xu Yuantong was on her third crush, Lin Jianheng had grown tired of it.
She was clueless about relationships and didn’t understand what “liking” someone meant, so she would just agree with whatever Xu Yuantong said.
Mhm, yes, she likes you. Xu Yuantong returned the exact same words to her.
【…Little Xu, you’re no longer my dearest bestie.】 Lin Jianheng pretended to cry and vigorously tickled Xu Yuantong with her spiritual power.
She was much more skilled with spiritual power than Xu Yuantong, and she didn’t stop until Xu Yuantong begged for mercy.
【Okay, sister, I was wrong. I’ll tell you seriously. She likes you. If you don’t believe me, think about her attitude toward that scum Alpha who bought her, and then think about her attitude toward me.】
Lin Jianheng wanted to argue. Sigu had abused Yan Su; it would be strange if Yan Su treated it well.
As for Xu Yuantong, Yan Su didn’t know her well.
During the time when Yan Su didn’t know her well, she also had a cold expression all day. Only later did she gradually soften up, until she became obsessed with her pheromones like she was now.
【If you don’t believe me, lend her to me for a day ·v·】 Xu Yuantong revealed her true colors.
【In your dreams. You’re a princess now, you can hold a nationwide marriage selection. Don’t try to steal from me.】 Lin Jianheng ended the chat with this Yan Su fangirl and composed herself.
In any case, Yan Su didn’t hate her.
Even if it was just liking to be marked by her, that still counted as a kind of liking.
She still had a lot of hope.
Lin Jianheng washed her hands and left the bathroom.
The moment she stepped out, she sensed something was wrong. Yan Su’s spiritual power was trembling faintly, and an emotion of fear was emanating from the bed.
Lin Jianheng frowned and hurried back to the bed, scooping up her pitiful little puppy who looked like she’d been caught in the rain.
Yan Su was indeed soaked in sweat, her teeth chattering, utterly terrified.
“What’s wrong, Sister? Sister?” The moment Lin Jianheng held Yan Su, Yan Su bit down on Lin Jianheng’s collarbone, whimpered, and threw herself into her arms, burrowing in with all her might.
Like a pitiful person who had seen a ghost, only her master’s embrace could make her feel safe.
The master is still here, it’s okay… Yan Su comforted herself.
Lin Jianheng was also constantly stroking her head, even kissing the corner of her forehead, helping her to slowly calm down.
“I… I had a nightmare…” It wasn’t exactly a lie.
That dream was indeed both bizarre and terrifying.
The feeling it brought still clung to Yan Su, leaving her unsettled in body and mind.
Right now, the two eggs were lying there quietly, not bothering Yan Su and their mommy.
Maybe they sensed their mommy has arrived, Yan Su thought, her eyes red-rimmed.
She… wanted to keep these two children.
Yan Su hugged Lin Jianheng tightly, squeezing her eyes shut and forcing out tears.
These were her and her master’s children. She wanted them, she wanted to have children with her master…
Yan Su couldn’t help but despise herself. Just a moment ago, she had been terrified, not knowing what to do with these two eggs, even considering a violent solution—if they died, this problem would naturally disappear.
Now, being held by Lin Jianheng, feeling the warmth of the person she liked, Yan Su couldn’t bear it.
…Actually, it was just greed.
If they had children, would Lin Jianheng give her a proper title?
Would she raise her up from being a pet to, for example… a lover?
Yan Su didn’t even dare to hope for “girlfriend” or “wife”.
She would be very satisfied even just being Lin Jianheng’s lover.
Yan Su wanted to be with Lin Jianheng in a more stable relationship.
Especially since she still didn’t know what Li Zhaoge had said or done to Lin Jianheng during the day.
She felt so insecure, but if she had children, even if it was out of responsibility, Lin Jianheng would keep her by her side.
“I see. Poor Sister, you must have been terrified.” Lin Jianheng gently patted Yan Su’s back, recalling how her mothers had comforted her when Jian Heng frequently had nightmares as a child.
“Dreams are the opposite of reality. The worse the dream, the better reality will be. Don’t worry about it, it’s just a dream.” Holding Yan Su, she rocked her from side to side, softly humming a soothing lullaby.
It was one Song Qinghua had sung to her as a child. Now, she was singing it to the person she liked.
Her palm against Yan Su’s back miraculously stopped her trembling.
Yan Su slowly exhaled, no longer so afraid.
Her master was very good.
So she would accept their unexpected children, right?
If she couldn’t accept them, then there was nothing Yan Su could do. She would obey her master in everything.
She only begged Lin Jianheng not to send her away; she had nowhere else to go.
“I’m sorry, Sister. I just went to the bathroom.” Lin Jianheng hugged Yan Su and lay down again, taking the unfastened handcuffs and putting them on in front of Yan Su.
“Will this be better?” She fastened them on herself, this time giving the initiative to Yan Su.
She liked Yan Su. Just this once, she was willing to let Yan Su lead her.
Yan Su’s fingertips trembled slightly, and then she gently pulled Lin Jianheng’s wrist toward her.
She held Lin Jianheng’s hand, her favorite hand.
She kissed the knuckles, which were like a work of art.
The hand appeared pale white in the moonlight, its distinct knuckles forming elegant lines.
Yan Su’s lips were its only adornment, having decorated its every inch.
Lin Jianheng lowered her gaze, surprised that when Yan Su had the chance to lead her, she only pulled her hand over to offer a loyal kiss.
Maybe… Xu Yuantong was right.
Yan Su really did like her.
Lin Jianheng took the opportunity to caress Yan Su’s face, gently smoothing away the bright sheen cast by the moonlight.
Then she lifted Yan Su’s chin, gazing at her.
She wanted to see more affection in those eyes.
And Yan Su, her eyes misty, blinked and looked clearly into Lin Jianheng’s gaze.
She gave Lin Jianheng the affection she craved.
Lin Jianheng made a new discovery.
She discovered that she really liked kissing Yan Su.
Anywhere. Her forehead, the corners of her eyes, the tip of her nose…
And of course, her lips, one of Yan Su’s softest places.
Lin Jianheng even liked kissing Yan Su’s throat. The place where her name had once been branded had a subtle protrusion and moved when she swallowed.
Then her collarbone. It wasn’t just suitable for licking, for placing the tip of her tongue in the perfect hollow.
It was also suitable for a kiss, to press a soft pink onto its streamlined curve.
Lin Jianheng kissed her bit by bit. In the beginning, she had only wanted to comfort Yan Su.
Somehow, it had developed into kissing. She was much more skilled than before, able to kiss Yan Su until she raised a hand to stop her and beg for mercy.
While giving Yan Su time to breathe, Lin Jianheng savored her little dessert.
Like a woodpecker, she pecked kisses on Yan Su until she was ticklish.
She also kissed her ear. The soft, wet sounds were intimate.
Yan Su pushed her gently, accepting all the kisses with feigned resistance.
Inwardly, she loved this feeling even more than Lin Jianheng did.
She was hiding a secret.
A secret big enough to stun Lin Jianheng. It could also lead to her own annihilation.
But these stolen kisses, with their profound sense of immorality, made Yan Su all the more excited.
She was carrying Lin Jianheng’s children while receiving Lin Jianheng’s kisses.
And Lin Jianheng was just her master, her one-sided partner stolen in a sliver of moonlight.
But what could she do?
She was just a lowly, despicable succubus who only loved her master.
Yan Su couldn’t help but caress her own abdomen, where her two eggs lay.
Lin Jianheng parted her lips. Now, two entangled tongues occupied that space as well.
Until Lin Jianheng also caressed Yan Su’s abdomen.
Only then did Yan Su suddenly come to her senses and try to shy away.
“Hmm?” Lin Jianheng ended the comforting kiss and pulled back the little kitten who was trying to escape.
She gently raised her hand, and the chain binding their hands pulled Yan Su back.
Blushing, Yan Su simply lowered her head and burrowed into the blankets.
The little kitten was pregnant, and it was the master’s.
But the little kitten didn’t want to say, afraid of interrupting her master’s rare initiative, this anomaly that seemed like affection.
“Are you uncomfortable? Did I press too hard?” She didn’t think she had used much force. But had her sister really been a bit sick lately?
Lin Jianheng thought of Yan Su’s tendency to keep things to herself and felt like taking her for another check-up.
Mainly, Yan Su had been feeling nauseous a bit too often these past two days.
If there was something wrong, like an irregular menstrual cycle due to malnutrition, it could be treated in time.
With advanced technology, these ailments were easy to treat. Lin Jianheng had been on Q Net; people in the Empire didn’t even have problems with menstrual cramps.
“N-no…” Yan Su clutched the sheet as she felt breath on her neck.
Her master had already pressed close.
For some reason, Yan Su found this feeling of hiding exceptionally thrilling.
She wanted to entice Lin Jianheng to discover it, fearing Lin Jianheng’s anger, yet also looking forward to Lin Jianheng’s punishment.
“Then what is it? You don’t want to kiss your master?” That wouldn’t do.
Lin Jianheng sniffed Yan Su’s hair and turned her shoulders back so they were face to face.
She saw a tear at the corner of Yan Su’s eye, not born of pain.
Instead, a desire for control stirred within her.
She grabbed Yan Su’s wrist, completely restraining her.
Starting from her neck, she tickled her with her breath.
“No, Yan Su wants… wants to kiss the master…” This was the master’s kiss.
Yan Su tensed up, wondering if she could explain it away as playing hard to get and make her master believe her.
She wanted to hide these two eggs a little longer.
They seemed too small, just recently formed, perhaps only one or two weeks old.
What if she miscarried?
Yan Su found reasons for her own wicked thoughts.
But Lin Jianheng pulled her back and caressed her flat tattoo.
Just by looking, she couldn’t see any signs of illness.
She still had to take Yan Su for a check-up.
Let’s just call it a ‘pre-marital check-up’, Lin Jianheng thought, momentarily lost in a daze. The idea thrilled her.
When could she marry Yan Su? Her former fiancée had run off, and her fake fiancée had made her exit.
Now, she only had Yan Su. She really wanted to have a proper bond with her.
Lin Jianheng kissed the navel beside the tattoo.
Yan Su suddenly trembled. Lin Jianheng looked up, but Yan Su pressed her back down.
Lin Jianheng didn’t know that Yan Su’s spiritual power was constantly observing, and she could see.
Through a layer of space, Lin Jianheng’s kiss landed right above their little cubs.
How could that not be exciting.
Yan Su pleaded for Lin Jianheng to kiss her more.
Even better, if she could transfer some pheromones inside to soothe the little cubs.
The children of an AO couple couldn’t grow without both parents’ pheromones.
Lacking either one, the children could suffer from developmental problems. Although another Alpha’s pheromones could be used as a substitute, it wasn’t the original, after all.
So, it wasn’t uncommon in the Empire for couples to stay together for their children. For at least that one year of pregnancy and incubation, they had to do many things together.
Yan Su’s pheromones would flow into the eggshells along with her blood. Lin Jianheng’s pheromones could only be supplemented externally, for example, through marking.
But a more direct way was for Lin Jianheng to place her hand on Yan Su’s uterus and transfer the pheromones inside bit by bit using spiritual power.
It was difficult, but Yan Su thought that if it was her perfect master, she would definitely be able to learn.
Yan Su grabbed Lin Jianheng’s hair, pulling with an excitement she had never felt before.
It hurt a little when she pulled, but Lin Jianheng endured it.
It was good that she desired something from her. Lin Jianheng accepted this precursor to affection and licked the tattoo.
Yan Su continued to tremble, her eyes flying open when Lin Jianheng bit down gently.
She suddenly realized. If she could use spiritual power to look inside herself, then Lin Jianheng could also see inside her.
The operation wasn’t simple, but their spiritual power levels were both very high. Yan Su could sense that Lin Jianheng had already recovered to 3S.
If Lin Jianheng wanted to make their kisses more interesting, she might use her spiritual power to observe her heartbeat, stimulate her blood flow, or even monitor her uterus during pre-conception.
Yan Su’s breath caught, she was so nervous.
What if Lin Jianheng really used it? Wouldn’t their babies be exposed?
But this feeling thrilled Yan Su, making her sink deeper into it.
Wanting to be discovered, afraid of being discovered…
Conflicting feelings assaulted Yan Su. As she trembled, the two eggs she had only recently conceived also bumped gently against each other.
The unborn eggshells were soft, so they wouldn’t break even if they touched.
This pair of little sisters would only unconsciously press against each other, receiving nourishment from their mother’s pheromones.
“Master…” After a few tremors, Yan Su sensed that the babies were hungry.
No wonder she had been feeling weak at times recently. Lin Jianheng’s pheromones were pure and high-quality, and she always gave her a lot, yet she was still hungry.
It turned out it was because of the two extra little cubs.
“Yan Su is hungry.” She blinked her gentle eyes at Lin Jianheng, her gaze full of moonlight.
An impure moonlight, mixed with too much desire.
Lin Jianheng paused for a moment.
She had fed Yan Su properly this afternoon.
Although she had been the one receiving for a good part of the time today. But could she get hungry this quickly?
Lin Jianheng checked herself and felt she was fine, so she caressed Yan Su’s lower abdomen.
As if she had discovered something, she gave her warmth, pulled her up, and tied up her hair for her.
Yan Su lowered her head, waiting for this non-sexual marking, a pure yet ambiguous feeding.
Lin Jianheng’s hand was still resting next to the tattoo she was “unwilling to have touched”.
The parts of the chain touching their skin were already warm.
But the part resting against Yan Su was a bit cool.
Yan Su secretly used her own body heat to warm it.
Feeling her master’s hand resting on top of their children.
Waiting for her gland to be bitten.
This was a little extra snack. Yan Su closed her eyes, trying hard to transfer the newly fed pheromones from Lin Jianheng to her uterus.
When Lin Jianheng opened her eyes again, it was already ten o’clock.
She groggily felt that her pillow was different. Reaching back, she found a shock of red hair in front of her.
“Master, good morning.” Yan Su touched Lin Jianheng’s forehead, secretly pulling back the hand that was caressing her own abdomen.
Only then did Lin Jianheng realize she was sleeping on Yan Su’s lap, lying diagonally.
They had kissed and marked last night.
So she had fallen asleep, exhausted and unaware?
Lin Jianheng tried to pull back the hand that was resting on Yan Su’s waist, but Yan Su caught it.
The woman’s warm palm enveloped Lin Jianheng’s cool fingertips. Yan Su pressed against her, lowering her head to meet her gaze.
Her wavy red hair fell across Lin Jianheng’s face, causing her to inhale sharply before a sneeze.
Lin Jianheng quickly pushed Yan Su’s hair away.
“Good morning, Sister Yan.” She managed to sit up and rested her head back on Yan Su’s shoulder.
Lin Jianheng was more used to hugging Yan Su from behind, resting her chin on the soft spot just behind her collarbone.
Her hands could also lock around Yan Su’s waist, leaving her no chance to escape.
Now, Lin Jianheng’s hands were holding Yan Su’s waist, her palms covering her abdomen.
Yan Su shivered, lowering her gaze to hide the emotion in her eyes.
They’re so close…
Her master was already caressing her skin, greeting her daughters through the air.
Yan Su lowered her lashes, her gaze sweeping over Lin Jianheng’s hands, wishing they could stay on her abdomen forever.
As if Lin Jianheng were caring for the twins.
In reality, Lin Jianheng was just concerned about Yan Su. “Sister, I’ve decided.”
Yan Su’s head was still resting on Lin Jianheng’s, leaning on her like a puppy.
But Lin Jianheng’s words left no room for argument. “I’m taking you for a check-up today.”
“…But I just had a check-up a while ago.” Yan Su refused instinctively.
She wanted to hide it for a while longer, to nourish the two babies in her belly, and then tell her master.
Or wait until their relationship was more stable… wait until Lin Jianheng also said she liked her, then she would tell her.
Secrets were always alluring. Yan Su was intoxicated by it and didn’t want to shatter it so soon.
“What does it matter? It’s our sister-in-law’s hospital anyway. Sister, you never like to tell me what’s going on with you. I’m afraid you’ll hide it from me if you’re sick and just tough it out. That’s not good.”
Unintentionally, Lin Jianheng’s palm was indeed resting on the spot over Yan Su’s uterus.
She didn’t mean anything by it. Lin Jianheng didn’t know her children were lying there.
Lin Jianheng just wanted to touch Yan Su, humming softly with her head buried.
“Okay, Sister? We’ll just go for a look, it won’t take long, and then we can go to the office to work.” Today was Saturday. Although most citizens of the Empire worked four days and rested three.
But Lin Jianheng didn’t belong to the commoner class and was still being exploited by Jian Lingxuan. During a project, there was no such thing as a day off.
She was even acting cute. Yan Su whimpered and nodded.
Lin Jianheng really thought she was unwell somewhere but wouldn’t say, so she poked her cheek. “You’re such a bad sister, not even telling your master when you’re sick.”
The warmth on her abdomen faded.
Yan Su’s eyelashes were wet with tears, her face flushed red.
She wasn’t sick, she was just pregnant.
“I’m not sick…” Yan Su’s voice grew weaker and weaker, becoming incredibly soft.
Lin Jianheng gave her a playful bite, and Yan Su’s cheek stung.
Even if she’s not sick, we should still do a pre-marital check-up, Lin Jianheng thought, still planning how to confess to Yan Su.
With Xu Yuantong’s analysis (and coveting), and a certain confidence of her own…
She felt that Yan Su probably liked her too, but was holding back because of their previous master-pet relationship.
Then she would be the one to confess, the one to break the barrier.
Lin Jianheng snuggled against her for a while longer, only letting her poor succubus sister go after hearing a soft whimper.
While they were washing up, Yan Su followed Lin Jianheng’s every step.
But her spiritual power was secretly looking inward, checking on the development of her two babies.
It was her first time dealing with babies, and she didn’t know how old they were. Based on the information she had studied before, they probably weren’t full-term yet.
It was just that one was a whole size bigger than the other, and she didn’t know if it was stealing nutrients.
Generally speaking, the residents of the Empire had 1-4 eggs per birth, with the median being two.
Not every egg could hatch successfully, but with the rise of medical standards in recent years, the mortality rate had dropped quite a bit.
Two should be just the right amount, so there shouldn’t be a problem of them competing for nutrients.
Could it be that the bigger one was the older sister?
Yan Su stared blankly, watching the two little ones inside her resting quietly against each other, looking intimate.
Such small cubs hadn’t developed nerves or spiritual power yet, so they couldn’t communicate with their mother.
Yan Su had heard that when the eggs were five months old, she would occasionally see her daughters’ spiritual power in her dreams and hear what they wanted, whether they were hot or cold, hungry, and so on.
She was so looking forward to it.
A pat landed on Yan Su’s head.
“Didn’t you rest well?” Lin Jianheng had finished washing up and hugged Yan Su from behind again.
“I was spacing out, I’m sorry, Master.” Yan Su hurriedly came back to her senses, only to realize she had accidentally swallowed a mouthful of toothpaste.
“Honestly…” Lin Jianheng took the toothbrush and rinsing cup, and holding her just like that, told her to look in the mirror.
“Let Master help you. What are you thinking about, little kitten?” Lin Jianheng squeezed out some more toothpaste and told Yan Su to open her mouth.
It was the first time Yan Su had someone help her brush her teeth. Although she had checked Lin Jianheng’s mouth before, it was different from cleaning it.
Her ears turned red with shyness, and she even had some… prominent thoughts.
Somehow, she held back the latter. Lin Jianheng now knew that was a sign of arousal.
How could she explain it? She was indeed very much looking forward to her master cleaning her.
She was the master’s little kitten; it was only right that the master should take her to bathe and brush her teeth.
It was also normal for the master to take care of her daily life. But this realization always fascinated Yan Su, making her body go soft.
But Lin Jianheng’s teeth-brushing movements were very proper and serious, not missing a single corner.
Yan Su felt a little disgusted with herself for thinking strange things about everything. She opened her mouth as wide as possible, closed her eyes, and tears welled up at the corners.
“Open your eyes, little kitten.” Lin Jianheng paused briefly.
“Mmm…” Yan Su had no choice but to look directly at the scene of her master taking care of her.
“Watch how Master helps you brush your teeth.” The command came from a mischievous streak Lin Jianheng herself wasn’t even aware of.
As she spoke, Yan Su’s heart-shaped tail tickled Lin Jianheng’s waist, telling Lin Jianheng of her excitement.
So Lin Jianheng continued.
Actually, Yan Su’s teeth were almost clean. Lin Jianheng just wanted to guide her like this once.
“Alright, go rinse your mouth.” She patted Yan Su’s bottom.
Yan Su yelped and jumped away. A tear slid from the corner of her eye as she took a mouthful of water with a racing heart and rinsed.
When Lin Jianheng took Yan Su out, she at least told Jian Lingxuan, to prevent Jian Lingxuan from coming to drag her to work today.
Jian Zunqiu and Song Qinghua had already gone to the company to help.
Lu Yuanchen usually stayed at her hospital when she had nothing else to do. Hearing that Lin Jianheng was bringing Yan Su over, she prepared an examination room in advance.
Thinking of the succubus’s malnutrition data, Lu Yuanchen didn’t find it strange.
With these physical indicators, anyone else might have been hospitalized directly.
It was only because the succubus race was tough enough that Yan Su usually looked perfectly fine.
Before starting the examination, Lu Yuanchen at least asked, “Have you been feeling unwell anywhere recently? What’s wrong that you need a check-up today?”
Yan Su looked at Lin Jianheng for help. In truth, even though they were already at the hospital, Yan Su didn’t want to get the check-up. She knew very well what her problem was, and she didn’t want Lin Jianheng to know just yet.
She had become a little kitten who didn’t want to go to the hospital, afraid of examinations and shots.
Lin Jianheng could only coax her, patting her head. “She’s always feeling nauseous and wants to throw up, and she’s tired and sleepy. Could it be a bit of a cold?”
Lin Jianheng also winked at Lu Yuanchen.
When they arrived, she had expressed her wish to give Yan Su a “pre-marital check-up”, and Lu Yuanchen had agreed.
Lu Yuanchen was lost in thought.
This didn’t sound much like a cold. Lu Yuanchen met Yan Su’s pleading eyes and sensed something.
“Maybe. You should wait outside first.” Perhaps Yan Su had something to hide.
“Master…” Yan Su still clung to Lin Jianheng, her sea-blue eyes welling up with tears.
“It’s okay, Sister. You’ve had many check-ups, haven’t you? It doesn’t hurt.” Lin Jianheng actually came back, burying Yan Su’s head in her chest and patting her gently to soothe her.
Lu Yuanchen kept a straight face, but her inner drama was already soaring to the heavens.
Actually, her first reaction was that Yan Su had gotten pregnant with someone else’s child and didn’t dare to tell Lin Jianheng, and might even ask her for an abortion later.
What a melodramatic plot. Lu Yuanchen’s sleepiness was swept away, and she was suddenly energized.
She didn’t dare let it show on her face. After all, she was the only one who liked watching melodramas, and the plot she was imagining wasn’t very nice.
Lin Jianheng coaxed her for a good while, and the plot in Lu Yuanchen’s mind had already progressed to Yan Su giving birth and then kneeling before Lin Jianheng to apologize and beg for reconciliation.
Lin Jianheng finally left the examination room.
Lu Yuanchen straightened her uniform and threw all the abnormal thoughts out of her head.
“Let me confirm first, Miss Yan Su, you should know what’s going on with you, right?” Lu Yuanchen didn’t rush to open the examination pod.
Although modern examination pods were designed to minimize harm to the human body and fetus, if Yan Su was really pregnant with cubs, the required procedures would be different.
“Yes…” Yan Su lowered her head. She could hide it from Lin Jianheng for a while, but there was no way she could hide it from the examination equipment and Doctor Lu.
“Do you know how long it’s been? Is it with our Xiao Heng?” Lu Yuanchen adjusted the examination pod’s settings, her voice cold and businesslike.
But inwardly, she was calculating. Xiao Heng had returned two months ago. If the cub was more than two months along, could it still be Xiao Heng’s?
“Yes. I don’t know for how long. We clearly never did a deep marking…” In Yan Su’s understanding, only a deep marking could lead to pregnancy.
Before formally trying to conceive, markings between AOs weren’t very deep. Lin Jianheng had no technique and hadn’t broken through that layer.
“It’s not unheard of, maybe a one-in-a-million chance.” She had basically won the lottery.
Lu Yuanchen recorded the situation. She didn’t know that Yan Su’s markings had played a part in this.
“I only discovered it last night when I used my spiritual power to look inside myself. One is big and one is small, and neither looks full-term.” Yan Su continued to explain.
Lu Yuanchen’s hand paused.
Spiritual power introspection—what an unfamiliar term.
Neither she nor Jian Lingxuan, both SS-rank, could do it stably, yet this succubus had not only taught herself but could also see so clearly that she could even distinguish their sizes.
What terrifying spiritual power strength.
If they weren’t full-term, then indeed, they could only be Lin Jianheng’s.
Lu Yuanchen regretfully set aside her melodrama novel and had Yan Su lie down inside.
Five minutes later, Yan Su came out of the examination pod. Lu Yuanchen’s side was connected to the computing equipment, which was generating the results.
“Are you going to tell her, or should I?” Lu Yuanchen operated the instrument, inputting the relevant codes to render the results.
Yan Su touched her abdomen, somewhat reluctantly. “I’ll go. Thank you for your trouble, Doctor Lu.”
Lu Yuanchen waved her hand. It was just three new members added to the big family in one go; Lu Yuanchen didn’t have much of an opinion on it.
She had noticed two months ago that Lin Jianheng’s attitude toward Yan Su was unusual.
“Hmm? Sister, that was fast?” Lin Jianheng turned her head and reached out to Yan Su, wanting to hold her and continue coaxing her.
When did her sister become so afraid of hospitals? It was strangely cute.
Lin Jianheng’s rose-colored glasses were three meters thick; she could even find Yan Su’s clearly abnormal fear of hospitals cute.
“Th-that…” Yan Su’s heart continued to race.
Just a moment ago, she had said she would tell Lin Jianheng herself, but now she was scared again.
What if, what if Lin Jianheng wanted to kick her out and didn’t want the children they had together?
After a night of sorting through her feelings and nourishing them, Yan Su had developed a little bit of affection for these two cubs.
Although it was only a little, she would still feel heartbroken if they were taken away.
A worse possibility was that Lin Jianheng would reject her altogether.
Would this count as a betrayal? Could she at least become a part of Lin Jianheng’s body?
“Master.” Yan Su slowly calmed her breathing. She hadn’t prepared her lines, but her mentality had shifted to one of reckless abandon.
She should accept whatever her master gave her.
“What’s with the formality?” Lin Jianheng wasn’t thinking in the direction of pregnancy at all. She was still holding Yan Su’s hand, wanting to kiss her.
“I… I… I want… want to give you a gift…” Could this be considered a gift? Yan Su’s eyes darted around frantically before she suddenly grabbed Lin Jianheng’s hand.
Lin Jianheng was bewildered as she watched Yan Su place her hand on her own abdomen.
Below her navel, at the lower edge of the tattoo, over her uterus.
“I’m pregnant with two cubs. They’re yours.”
The words were soft and weak, but they struck like a bolt from the blue.
It struck Lin Jianheng’s head, petrifying her bit by bit, then shattering her.
They could have children… like this?
Oh no, I’m feeling a bit homophobic.
