Chapter 327 The Yan Family
As mentioned before, some families treat their lovers as playthings, abusing them, trading them, and so on—it's horrifying. Many fighters can't stand it and end up with the idea of dying together with their lovers.
Of course, some families, in order to prevent this from happening, will restrict the family members of these people as a form of blackmail.
But Qi Bai was an orphan, so he didn't have this concern.
"I may never be able to give you a child in this lifetime, but I am not a twisted and cruel person, and I will not abuse or mistreat you."
So as long as you don't feel bad about being just a lover in the future, the outcome you envisioned won't happen.
Of course, if you change in the future and have any bad intentions, I believe Bo Chuan will be the first to deal with you.
Qi Bai gave a symbolic shiver, then nodded. "I know, some people are never satisfied with the more they get, but I won't. I'll only think about what I might lose."
Qingqing, ever since the first time the boss talked to me about this, I've considered myself one of your people. I'm no longer a member of Bo Chuan's team.
It's yours alone.
Gu Qing believed that he wouldn't betray her because of the contract, so she needed to investigate him carefully before figuring out how to arrange things for him.
Qi Bo is a talented person, and his abilities should not be wasted, but the premise is that he must be reliable.
Seeing that the two had finished their conversation, he helped Gu Qing to wash up. If Gu Qing hadn't refused, he would have even helped her brush her teeth, treating her like a baby.
Gu Qing knew that it wasn't easy for women to get pregnant here, but she felt that this was unnecessary!
Qi Bai seemed to see her question and explained while wiping her hands, "In the interstellar world, not to mention women, even animals and plants are protected when they give birth. In fact, the balance of birth, aging, sickness and death has been uneven over the past hundred years."
With the birth rates of men and women increasingly skewed, it's normal for pregnancies to receive special protection.
If this situation cannot be stopped, humanity's extinction is only a matter of time, given that humanity has too many natural enemies in this interstellar world.
Gu Qing had also seen this kind of statement online, but in her previous world, many people had also said things like humanity was going to become extinct.
But humanity has still survived to this day, hasn't it? So she didn't care. But thinking about it the other way around, it's precisely because some people care, and some people are constantly trying to correct the balance, that humanity has been able to develop to where it is today.
"Okay, I understand. I don't care about humans, but I do care about myself!"
Hearing her say that, Qi Bai, fearing she would be annoyed, quickly changed the subject with a grin. "Clan Chief Lou has gone to arrange matters within the clan; tomorrow it'll be his and my turn to stay home."
"Because Commander Yan is busy arranging the dowry and wedding, as well as things for your unborn child, he'll be very busy these next few days."
After Gu Qing finished washing up, he went downstairs to bring her food.
In the capital city, in a quaint yet sprawling manor, a middle-aged man stood in the main hall, directing the servants.
"Hurry up and open up the entire third floor for me. The materials for the nursery must be the best. If you don't have any, go to the storeroom and get them right away."
And how's the inventory of our master's dowry coming along? Don't be stingy, raise the list from the previous one to a higher level. Especially that phoenix hairpin that the young master mentioned, it's for our mistress, so don't forget about it.
"Oh dear, there are even things belonging to our future young master! No, I have to go and check them myself."
He turned and headed towards the back storeroom, muttering to himself. "Hmph! Those people keep saying our family is small, but our patriarch is amazing! Look, the little master is already in the madam's belly."
"Oh dear, we need to send more people to collect some supplies suitable for pregnancy and infant care."
The opponent disappeared into the front yard in a flash, indicating that their combat level was not low.
The servants who handled these matters were all retired soldiers from the defense army. They were all highly skilled in the past, and they got along very well with the old steward; they were like family.
So seeing him like this, everyone smiled and busied themselves, wanting to contribute as much as they could, even if it was just a little bit.
Thinking that if he behaved well, he could also go and see the lady and wait for the birth of the little master.
Gu Qing was handling matters on the smart device and in the holographic system in her room. Mainly, she was dealing with inquiries and messages from various people.
Even Shang Ci and An Yu sent messages, along with transfer information. Gu Qing, of course, couldn't accept them, so she returned them one by one and expressed her gratitude.
