Chapter 141 Worrying about Gains and Losses
Noticing that Du Yuan was in a bad mood, Chu Nian quickly walked over to her.
Du Yuan was just packing up the things in the examination room dejectedly, with her head down and not saying a word.
"Yuanyuan, are we best friends?"
"Is she a close friend with whom I can confide my innermost thoughts?"
Chu Nian hugged her shoulders, leaving her no room to escape from him.
"Of course, you are my only friend. I would do anything for you."
"Nian Nian, I know you are doing this for my own good."
"But...actually, I'm afraid of delaying Lian Lixing."
Du Yuan sighed. She had agreed on impulse and now she felt a little regretful.
Chu Nian then realized something was wrong. No wonder she felt that Du Yuan and Lian Lixing's progress was so slow?
Even Li Xing, who is not good at romance, takes time out every day to visit Du Yuan.
But looking at Du Yuan's popularity, it is obvious that she is not as popular as Lian Lixing.
Now Chu Nian found the root of the problem, it turned out to be related to childbirth.
"So that's why you're not enthusiastic about him?"
Chu Nian got a positive answer from Du Yuan.
"My fertility level is not high. It's difficult for someone like me to conceive."
"I also secretly checked myself, and although my menstruation was normal, there were no mature follicles at all."
"My entire reproductive system is healthy and normal."
"But I just can't find any mature follicles."
Du Yuan let out a long sigh, feeling disheartened.
"Sometimes I feel like this is nature's punishment on humans."
"Overpopulation has made the entire planet a mess."
“Perhaps we humans are like a tumor to the Earth.”
"It's the Earth's immune system that's killing us now."
"It makes it impossible for us to survive and reproduce."
You know what, Du Yuan’s description is quite apt.
"Have you checked your hormones?"
"I remember this seems to have something to do with hormones?"
Chu Nian asked.
"I've checked it out, and I think it might be related to changes in the Earth's magnetic field or radiation."
Seeing Chu Nian looking at her worriedly, Du Yuan smiled.
"Don't worry, I just felt a little lost for a moment."
"So many men and women don't have children, and I'm not the only one."
"I'm just worried about delaying Lian Lixing."
In fact, when Du Yuan learned about her situation, she was only troubled for a while and then forgot about it.
After all, it is difficult to survive and fill your stomach. Thinking too much will only add to your troubles.
"He could have chosen a woman who was superior in status, appearance, and fertility."
When Du Yuan said this, her heart ached slightly.
It was as if Lian Lixing had really given up on her and chosen to be with another woman.
Chu Nian could feel the sadness in her heart.
It is obvious that Du Yuan has become deeply attracted to Lian Li.
Sometimes feelings are so wonderful.
Although they have not known each other and loved each other for a long time, they have already engraved each other's souls deeply.
"Isn't there any medicine to ripen follicles?"
Chu Nian vaguely remembered that there should be one.
"You're talking about gonadotropin-type drugs."
Du Yuan smiled sadly and said a few names that Chu Nian felt vaguely familiar with.
"But the formulas for these medicines, or the raw materials and techniques used to make them, have long been lost in the apocalypse."
"It's impossible to have it again."
"Not to mention these special medicines, even the ones for treating trauma, antivirals, anti-inflammatories, and cold medicines are very few left."
"It's simply not enough. Previously, a small amount could still flow out through the trading alliance."
"But now it's becoming increasingly scarce. Not only is it hard to find, but it's also very expensive."
"There is a shortage of medicines, and even some medical equipment, including gauze and iodine."
"There's no agriculture, and then there's a paralyzed industry."
Thinking of this, Du Yuan felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
"It seems like the various bases that are being built are in full swing, whether it's the Chinese base or the Eagle Country."
"It's all a false prosperity, and all the survivors are just struggling on the line between life and death."
"Life and death may be just a bad cold."
"High-level psychics have better physical fitness and can withstand it."
"But women are much worse off, and there are children."
"Many newborns die within a month."
"Now you know how precious your nine little babies are, and the three in your belly, right?"
"Born with special abilities, children have stronger physical qualities and immune systems."
"Their chances of growing up healthily are much greater than other normal children."
Du Yuan really likes the nine little babies.
As their personal health doctor, she checks on the children every day.
"Don't worry, I will take good care of you no matter what I do."
Du Yuan hugged Chu Nian, not only to protect her, but also to gain some sense of security from her.
Lian Lixing treated her very well and she liked being with him.
But this feeling of worrying about gains and losses is really not a good thing.
"Yuanyuan, you know I'm a space-based psychic, right?"
Well, she had used this excuse so many times that she even believed it herself.
It seemed that the system had been "abandoned" by her at this time.
"Yeah." Du Yuan nodded, but did not let go of the hand holding Chu Nian.
The warm and fragrant smell on Chu Nian made her feel relaxed.
"Look at this."
Chu Nian gently shook the small medicine box that appeared out of thin air in his hand. It was still the familiar style and the familiar formula.
"Hmm?" Du Yuan let go of Chu Nian's hand and took the medicine box from her.
Chu Nian gave her no less than dozens of such small first aid kits.
"This, this is... a tablet? And an injection?"
"Nian Nian, am I dazzled?"
"These are all..."
Du Yuan didn't even dare to call out the names of these drugs, for fear that they would disappear if she did.
"I found this when Jingming and I were searching for supplies after being driven out of Longteng Base."
"They've been stuck in the corner of the space, and I don't recognize them."
“Many of them are still English names.”
"If you hadn't mentioned it, I probably wouldn't have known what they did in my lifetime."
The main reason is that these medicines cannot be eaten or drunk, and Chu Nian doesn’t need them, so he really didn’t think about them at all.
She once asked Shi Liu whether the medicines such as the fertility pills in the system could be used by other people.
In the end, Pomegranate's answer to her was that she had not given birth to enough children and the level was not high enough to unlock it.
She even complained at the time, did Shi Liu really think she was the reincarnation of a carp spirit?
Shi Liu's response almost made Chu Nian autistic. [Isn't the host happy when he gets the reward?]
Looking at Du Yuan whose hands were trembling, Chu Nian "produced" a small medicine box.
"They're all yours."
Then he stuffed it into Du Yuan's arms.
