Those female emperor penguins who were called to huddle together in the corner by Jun Qi could only begin to move around freely after the expectant emperor penguin mothers left. This was also Jun Qi's arrangement, because who knows what unexpected things might happen when they lay their eggs.

It's better to be cautious.

So, while these emperor penguin couples weren't eating or drinking, the single emperor penguins weren't eating much either, because Jun Qi's earlier words were still weighing on them.

"Gah gah gah!" Charge! Time to eat!

"Gah—!" I'm so hungry, so hungry, so hungry, so hungry!

"Gah gah gah..." That's too much! Why can't we eat just because those who have partners don't?

...

The group of single emperor penguins dispersed and started running back to the path they had been on. They hadn't realized what was happening while the expectant emperor penguin mothers were lining up, but now that they did, they hurriedly ran over.

I'm so hungry! It's outrageous that I have to starve when I'm single!

These lone emperor penguins weren't exactly stealthy in their movements, and their quacking noises didn't seem to be quiet either, making the place quite noisy for a while.

Jun Qi looked at the emperor penguin egg on the back of his foot, then looked at Xu Qiaoqiao who had already started lining up. He looked around for a few seconds with a dazed expression, then looked at the male emperor penguins around him, who were all like him, soon-to-be dads.

Jun Qi: ...

After Xu Qiaoqiao's group of soon-to-be emperor penguin mothers left, Jun Qi suddenly realized something. Recalling the scene when he was just born, he became a little excited, and his eyes showed a slightly unfriendly look. His little wings couldn't help but start flapping, not very large, but quite frequently.

He's actually... going to incubate eggs again!!!

He had thought about this before, but he never expected that this moment would actually come.

All of this was Qiaoqiao's scheme.

Jun Qi understood, but the little one in his incubator was his and Qiao Qiao's child. If something happened to the child, Qiao Qiao probably wouldn't pay attention to him for the rest of her life in this world.

Recalling Qiao Qiao's subtle glances and hesitant words, she must be really looking forward to seeing herself like this.

Jun Qi sighed slightly. Oh well, it's not the first time anyway, and this probably isn't the first child either.
