That day, I was looking at my phone while lying on the table.
After carefully selecting for a long time, I still couldn't find a suitable storefront. I had the money, but there wasn't a good place.
I got a little annoyed and turned off my phone, then stretched.
"Haven't found anything suitable yet?" You asked casually as she took a sip of tea.
You also knows that I've been looking for a suitable storefront recently.
"Hmm." I nodded. "I've looked at many storefronts, but none of them really satisfied me."
"It's okay, take your time choosing."
Just as I was about to say something, the phone screen on the table suddenly lit up.
A new message appears on the phone screen.
I casually opened my phone and saw a strange text message: I'm pregnant.
What the heck? The phone number isn't one I recognize either.
"What's wrong?" You asked, noticing my confused expression as I stared at my phone screen.
There's a text message.
"say what?"
"He said he's pregnant." I scratched my head; I must have sent it to the wrong person.
"You, is this your doing?" I teased deliberately. "They've already come to me."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" You looked at me with displeasure. "Let me see it."
Just as I was about to hand the phone to You, another text message arrived on my phone.
I went to check, and it was still the same number.
I am Wisteria.
It turned out to be wisteria. I then remembered that when I met wisteria that day, we exchanged phone numbers.
“It’s wisteria,” I said to You after glancing at it.
"Why would she tell you if she's pregnant?" You didn't have a good impression of Zi Teng, especially after learning that Zi Teng's aunt, Fei Yan, almost killed me.
"I guess she's so happy and wants to share it with me," I said, typing rapidly on my phone.
Congratulations!
I simply replied with the four words "Fei Yan".
You glanced at me indifferently, but didn't say anything.
I had just put down my phone when Fei Yan called. I hesitated for a moment before answering.
"Nvxin, did you receive my text message?" Zifeng's excited voice came from the other end of the phone.
"I received it, didn't I already reply to you?"
"Hahaha, I saw it." Zitan laughed heartily, clearly very happy.
"How are you feeling? You must get plenty of rest during your pregnancy."
"I'm fine, and I plan to stay home for the rest of the time."
"That's good." At this point, I suddenly realized that Wisteria's partner was a mortal who would grow old and die in a few decades, not even a hundred years. What would happen to Wisteria then?
"Wisteria, is the child's father that actor?" I asked cautiously.
"Yeah, who else could it be?"
"Hmm..." I thought for a moment and decided to ask Zi Teng in a more tactful way. I originally thought that Zi Tan and that actor would be together forever, but if they had a child, the situation would be different.
"Nu Xin, is there something you want to say?" Zi Teng also sensed that I wanted to say something.
Did you tell him your real identity?
"Not yet." Wisteria shook her head. "He always thought I was an ordinary person. If I told him I wasn't human, he would be terrified."
"No, mortals aren't as fragile as you think." I meant it sincerely.
I used to be an ordinary person too, and Xiao Zhang was initially terrified of ghosts, but when he faced Xiao Yun, he showed no fear at all.
“But…” Wisteria sighed, “I still don’t know how to say it.”
“Now that you have a child, you can’t hide these things from your partner anymore. Your partner is just an ordinary person. At his current age, he’ll probably live for at least fifty or a hundred years.”
"I understand all of that, but I just..."
“Even if you don’t tell him, he’ll find out after the baby is born.”
The children of gods and monsters are different from those of mortals; for example, their growth rate is different.
Gods and monsters have very long lifespans; ten or twenty years is enough for a mortal to grow into an adult. However, this amount of time is only a small part of the life of a god or monster's child, and not enough for the child to reach adulthood.
Take immortals for example. If the child I had with You were five hundred years old, it would be equivalent to a twelve-year-old child in the mortal world, and it would be considered an adult at a thousand years old.
Although wisteria is quite different from us, its children still need hundreds of years to reach adulthood.
If Zi Teng's partner keeps watching the child grow up and realizes that something is wrong, then she will naturally notice something is amiss.
"Then, what do you think I should do?" Zi Teng was also a little anxious. "I can't just abandon this child."
Are you serious about spending your life with him, or is it just a fleeting romance?
Wisteria was silent on the other end of the phone for a while before replying, "I don't know either. I... I've never thought about this before, but right now I want to be with him."
"Think about it carefully first."
"good."
After that, my phone call with Zifang ended.
It's hard to believe that Zifang herself still has the mindset of a child, and in the blink of an eye, she's about to become a mother to another child.
"You, how could Zi Teng suddenly be pregnant?"
Our chances of getting pregnant are extremely low, otherwise You wouldn't have gone to such lengths to get me pregnant.
"It's not entirely sudden. Wasn't she with that mortal for a long time?"
It seems like it happened when I think about it, but it still came as a surprise to me.
I shook my head, forcing myself to stop thinking about the wisteria; my own thoughts were still a mess.
With that in mind, I opened my phone again to look for storefronts.
For the next few days, Zi Teng didn't contact me—no phone calls, no text messages—as if she was seriously thinking about the question I had given her.
I haven't been idle these past few days either. First, I picked out a storefront that I was quite satisfied with on my phone, and then I dragged You to see it in person.
Fortunately, my efforts over the past few days paid off, and I actually found one.
My ideal psychic shop cannot be in a bustling city center or in a conspicuous place, otherwise it won't feel mysterious enough. But it also cannot be too remote, otherwise people won't know about it, and even if they do, it will be difficult to find.
The house I've chosen is located in a small alley that extends independently from the bustling city street.
Compared to the street just a wall away, this alleyway seemed rather desolate.
The shop is the perfect size, a two-story villa facing the street, surrounded by a wooden fence. Inside the fence, besides the villa, the most eye-catching thing is a ginkgo tree. It's spring now, and the ginkgo leaves are still green. You can imagine what a beautiful scene it will be in autumn.
In addition to the ginkgo tree, the front of the house is also full of flowers, which shows the previous owner's care for these plants and flowers.
The villa is built in white, and both the first and second floors have floor-to-ceiling windows, so the view is absolutely stunning when you open the curtains during the day.
I've already figured out how to decorate this store.
