Chapter 55: Underwater Production
When Qiao Susu couldn't contact Lan Ze, Liberi was by her side.
He moved into the small building and lived in the room next to the master bedroom on the second floor.
"strangeness."
She hung up the unanswered video call and turned to ask Liberi: "You came from the Imperial Court, haven't you seen Lan Ze?"
Liberi smiled and shook his head, "No, what's wrong?"
She thought about it and didn't tell Lan Ze that she was going to register with him today. She just said it was okay. Liberi's eyes darkened and he took her hand and helped her sit down.
"Aren't you supposed to be busy lately?"
Qiao Susu turned her head to look at him and saw that he was in a relaxed state, with his arms resting on the back of his chair. From a distance, it looked like he was holding her in his arms, with obvious possessiveness.
"It's all taken care of, don't worry. I want to be with you and the kids."
He caressed her belly, his expression gentle and somewhat curious.
"Do you think they can hear us?"
According to the human development cycle, the child should have grown ears in the late pregnancy stage, but the orc didn't understand.
"What do you want to say to them?"
Liberi put his arms around her waist, pecked her lips gently, and smiled dotingly.
"I want to warn them to come out and not make my Sui Sui suffer too much."
Suddenly, the little ones in her belly seemed to understand and kicked her gently.
"It seems to be moving." Libery looked at her curiously, and touched her belly with his hand.
"Sui Sui, when the children are born, come back to the imperial court with me, okay? I promise to give them the best education and care. Be my queen, okay?"
She was stunned. She didn't expect him to say this suddenly, but since they had come to this point, Qiao Susu also wanted to make things clear.
"Ash, I don't want to live in the Royal Court."
Liberi kissed her white fingertips and smiled gently: "You don't like it? I can rebuild whatever you like."
"No, I think this place is great. This is where I belong."
He lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, then 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. How about you stay at the Imperial Court for a few days and come back whenever you want?"
It sounded like a very humble request, but Qiao Susu still shook her head.
"Ash, you can take the child, but I don't want to be your queen."
Libery's smile froze on his lips. He took a breath and then said, "Why?"
“I have things I want to do.”
"Does being my queen conflict with what you want to do? You have supreme glory and power. The entire Osland belongs to you. You can do whatever you want." He unconsciously raised his voice, then realized that his tone was a little anxious. He frowned in annoyance for a moment, then lowered his voice, took her hand and said, "I'm sorry, I was too anxious just now. Sui Sui, I hope you can consider it and don't reject me so quickly."
She knew it was no longer appropriate to continue the conversation, so she nodded and said she would talk about it later. Seeing her expression fade, Libery's breathing stagnated and his heartbeat became irregular. For some reason, he suddenly remembered Lan Ze's last words -
Between you, no result is the best result.
He was unwilling to accept it.
He did all this to give her a better life and keep her by his side.
Liberi couldn't stand her coldness towards him, so he grabbed Qiao Susu who was about to leave, held her face and kissed her.
She didn't like this passive feeling and struggled to push him away, but she had no strength at all.
He poured all his thoughts of the past few days into this kiss, which was fierce and lingering.
Suddenly, the person in his arms cried out softly. Liberi gasped and looked at her, only to be frightened to see her frozen in place, motionless.
"Sui Sui, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
She bit her lower lip awkwardly, looked down and saw that her skirt was wet, and said, "My water broke."
Liberi immediately lifted her up and carried her to the delivery room. Luka, who happened to be coming up from the first floor, saw the scene and knew she was about to give birth. He immediately called the medical team up and arranged everything. His back was wet with tension.
When Luka came in, Liberi had already helped her change her clothes. At this time, Qiao Susu was sitting in a round bathtub. The water temperature was just right. Liberi hugged her from behind and kept comforting her softly.
"It's okay, it's okay, it will be fine soon, don't be afraid."
The professional doctor from the medical team came in, and the midwife was also there. Qiao Susu felt that dozens of eyes were looking at her, which was really embarrassing.
"No. Not so many people."
She looked at Luka pleadingly. The man was worried and scared. Seeing her sweating in pain, he was willing to agree to anything she wanted, but he also knew that he had to ensure the safety of her delivery process.
"Luka, let them go." Qiao Suisui pulled his arm, her voice trembling with pain. Liberi couldn't bear to see her like this, so he said directly: "Leave only one, and everyone else go out."
Luka asked everyone else to wait at the door so that they could come in immediately if there was any problem. Now Qiao Sui Sui could finally rest assured and prepare for the birth.
After the initial contraction, the system activated pain-blocking mode, which made her feel much better. She finally had the energy to notice that Luka's hand was shaking violently. She grabbed his hand and shook it, signaling not to worry. Luka kissed the tip of her nose and gently stroked her hair.
The two men were even more nervous than she was. Liberi held her the whole time, kissing her forehead and coaxing her. He was afraid she was in pain and wanted to talk to her to distract her, but he was also afraid to disturb her labor. Luka held her hand the whole time, and whenever she exerted force, he squeezed tightly, as if transmitting strength to her through his hand.
She followed the midwife's guidance to relax her body, pushing when she needed to and resting when she needed to. Even though she no longer felt any pain, she was sweating from exhaustion, her hair stuck to her neck, and her cheeks flushed.
The birth went on like this for four hours, with the cubs coming out one after another.
Qiao Suisui heard the system continuously broadcasting——
