75. Getting the heat cycle
Ke Qi was even more confused: "Huh?"
Before she could finish wondering, Gu Zhao had already led her inside.
The doctor first drew a vial of blood from her for no apparent reason, and then told her to wait for the results.
I've never eaten pork, but I've seen pigs run.
At this point, how could Ke Qi not understand what Gu Zhao was expecting?
"Do you think I'm pregnant?" she asked directly.
"Isn't that right?"
Gu Zhao leaned closer, his large hand covering her flat stomach, his voice low, "That time with Yun Jin, baby, my husband hid a lot here."
The use of the character "藏" (cáng, meaning to hide or conceal) is very clever.
Involuntarily, certain blush-inducing memories flooded my mind.
Ke Qi's ears turned red instantly, and her cheeks and neck were not spared either.
"No, no."
There were indeed a lot that time, but...
"I took a special contraceptive pill specifically for succubi."
She looked at him apologetically, "So, you might be disappointed."
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhao's smile froze slightly.
But soon, they relaxed again.
"uncertain."
He moved closer, put his arm around her waist, and grinned slyly at her, "With my quality, birth control pills might not be effective."
Keqi: ...
Help! What kind of indecent words are these?
I know he's very confident, but these things have to be based on reality. Is confidence really useful?
The answer is...
Two hours later, at the obstetrics and gynecology department.
Holding up Ke Qi's test results, the doctor briefly stated, "Ms. Ke is not pregnant."
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhao's smile froze completely, and the expectation in his eyes shattered.
"What~"
He seemed unable to believe his ears, and after glancing down at Keqi's stomach, he couldn't help but feel a deep sense of doubt.
Of course, he would never doubt Ke Qi.
He only doubted himself.
Even though there were no problems with the timing, speed, or even the strength, and the baby liked it very much, it even brought him to the point of crying uncontrollably at one point.
But surprisingly, is the quality of his...things really that bad?
He's only 20 years old!
He has always kept his emotions hidden.
This was the first time Ke Qi clearly read the shattered emotions on his face.
"Cough, I'm not sad."
She suppressed a laugh, gave him a comforting kiss, and whispered closer, "You're great, but let's not fight the birth control pills anymore, okay?"
Gu Zhao: ...
The two were speaking very quietly, but the doctor who was nearby still heard them.
"Um~" she coughed lightly, reminding him, "Actually, it's not the birth control pill's fault."
Under the sudden gazes of Ke Qi and Gu Zhao, she pushed up her glasses and said, "Succubus conception is different from that of humans."
"To successfully conceive, you must wait until you are in heat before having intercourse with your partner. As for other times..."
She patiently explained, "Female succubi's egg cells are not capable of fertilization, so even without taking birth control pills, they cannot get pregnant."
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhao's slightly furrowed brows relaxed instantly, and even her originally narrow and shrewd peach blossom eyes widened slightly due to the unexpectedness, instantly becoming clear and innocent like a cute, silly big dog.
"There's such a thing?" At this moment, Keqi felt like a fake succubus. "But I've never heard of any heat cycle."
"But this is basic educational knowledge that every succubus should know."
The doctor looked incredulous: "Didn't your mother ever tell you this?"
"No." Ke Qi's eyes dimmed almost imperceptibly. "My mother passed away when I was less than four years old."
Therefore, she hadn't had a chance to tell her much about succubi.
As for Ke Hengyuan, that was even less likely. She felt that he only coveted her mother's beauty and didn't understand succubi at all.
Seeing this, Gu Zhao gently rubbed her head with his large hand, letting her lean against his strong waist and abdomen to comfort her.
"Feel sorry."
The doctor felt somewhat guilty. "This is truly regrettable. I hope Ms. Ke will forgive my offense."
"It doesn't matter."
Ke Qi gently patted Gu Zhao's hand and looked at her: "Doctor, could you please explain the succubus's heat cycle to me?"
"Yes, of course."
The doctor dutifully began to explain: "A succubus's estrus cycle is equivalent to a human woman's ovulation period."
“Every fully developed female succubus will enter her estrus cycle at a certain stage.”
"But the difference is that human women have a certain chance of getting pregnant even when they are not ovulating, but succubi cannot."
"Therefore, succubi women who are not in heat will not have any risk of getting pregnant even if their partners do not use condoms."
"On the contrary, if you want to have a baby, you must have intercourse with your partner when your heat cycle begins."
She glanced at Gu Zhao, who had a "learned something" expression, and then looked at Ke Qi: "Miss Ke, when was your last heat cycle?"
"This..." Ke Qi pursed her lips, somewhat embarrassed: "I don't think I've ever been in heat before."
"And~" she asked, with the curiosity of a child, "what are the symptoms of being in heat?"
doctor:……
Well, this is a complete novice with zero knowledge of sex education!
She then patiently explained the symptoms of estrus to her.
After listening, Ke Qi suddenly understood, "Oh, I see~"
She blinked. "Well, I don't think I've actually been here before."
It hasn't affected our sex life, and we've done it many times already, haha...
“It’s normal.” The doctor’s expression wasn’t surprised. “From what you just said, you only awakened as a succubus at the beginning of this year?”
Ke Qi nodded: "Yes, that's right."
"That'll be soon. Your heat should start around the end of this year at the latest."
She looked at Gu Zhao with a serious expression: "As I just said, when a succubus is in heat, both men and women will suffer greatly if they do not have a partner."
"Therefore, Mr. Gu, as Ms. Ke's husband, you must pay close attention to her condition in the next few months. It is best not to travel far or leave her alone at home for extended periods of time."
"OK."
Gu Zhao smiled and patted his little wife's head. "I'll remember, thank you, doctor."
When I came out of the hospital, it was already completely dark outside.
Gu Zhao glanced at Ke Qi's flat stomach, sighed softly, and pulled her into his arms to shield her from the autumn winds sweeping in from all sides.
"Are you hungry? Shall we eat out or come back to Cloud Realm and I'll cook for you?"
Actually, Ke Qi wanted to go back home more.
Although there was a high chance of encountering Gu Ye there, fortunately there was An Qingyao, Gu Xi, and Gu Zhuoyan, who was taciturn but always silently cared for her.
It would give her a feeling of being surrounded by the love of her parents and the affection of her sisters.
Unfortunately, her holiday ends tomorrow, and she will have to go back to school.
Yun Jing and Ting are her current private little nest with Gu Zhao, and it's also close to A University's A-body area, so naturally she'd go back to Yun Jing.
However, no matter where she goes, she won't need to eat human food.
She just needs to eat him.
Come to think of it, it's been several days since she and he last did *that*.
Furthermore, due to the effects of Ke Hengyuan's several potent concentrated inhibitors, her physical strength and energy were consumed ten times more than usual.
I am indeed quite hungry.
so……
"I'm not hungry."
She took his arm, winked playfully, and unconsciously added a touch of coquettishness to her voice, "Gu Zhao, let's go home quickly?"
She can eat it when she gets home, hehe!
