"My mother died when I was very young. Although mermaids can only have one partner in their lifetime, my father shouldered the responsibility of the entire mermaid tribe. Mingyue has been in turmoil over the years, and the tribe has few descendants. He had to listen to the opinions of the people in the tribe and married another queen like other tribal leaders. Seeing that my father doted on me, she was afraid that it would threaten her and Jun Changxi's status, so she always sowed discord between us and made my father hate me. She even falsely accused me of hurting an elder in the tribe. After I had a quarrel with my father, I left the palace and lived here alone."
Hearing these words, Jiang Li couldn't help but feel sorry for Yu, who lost his mother at a young age and was abused by his stepmother.
However, Jun Yuelan has an optimistic personality. Even though he has had a rough life, he has not been discouraged.
Seeing Jiang Li looking at him with heartache, Jun Yuelan wiped away the gloom in his eyes and gave her a bright smile.
"Don't worry about me, sister. I've gotten used to it over the years. Everything is in the past. We should always look forward!"
The words "I've gotten used to it" made Jiang Li feel even more distressed for the young man in front of him.
How much did he have to endure before he could say with a smile that he was used to it?
Jiang Li had the same experience as him, having lost his parents when he was young. He thought he would get through it when he grew up, but he didn't expect to get a terminal illness. So she understood everything that Jun Yuelan had experienced...
Jiang Li's heart slowly sank, and just as she was stunned, Jun Yuelan slowly hugged her again.
"Sister, don't be sad for me. From now on, as long as you are by my side, nothing else matters."
These words struck Jiang Li's heart word by word, and his originally calm heart was now rippling.
Although he did not have much affection for Jun Yuelan other than the grace of saving his life, now, she felt pity and heartache for her.
Especially after hearing what he said and thinking about what he had experienced, Jiang Li simply couldn't bear to reject him.
After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Li finally spoke softly and responded to him.
"Okay, I promise."
This simple sentence made Jun Yuelan happy for a long time. He clung to her with a silly smile and was unwilling to let go for a long time.
Just when Jiang Li was annoyed by his clinginess, he suddenly felt something was wrong with his stomach.
The baby in my belly was moving around again, and it was accompanied by waves of pain.
Jun Yuelan noticed that her whole body was tense, so he quickly looked up and asked her.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?"
"Jun Yuelan...I...my stomach hurts a little."
Her stomach was aching more and more, her breathing was heavy, and her eyebrows were tightly knitted together.
Jun Yuelan realized something was wrong and quickly let go of her hand, looking at her nervously, "Sister, are you going to give birth?"
Jiang Li's breathing became heavier and heavier. She was in so much pain that she didn't even want to speak. "It seems so."
When these three words came out, Jun Yuelan was at a loss.
Didn't Elder Xingyu say it would take a week? How come she's giving birth after just two days? Could it be that the battle just now affected the fetal movement?
Jun Yuelan saw that the expression on Jiang Li's face was becoming more and more painful. Without having time to think about it, he immediately picked Jiang Li up.
"Sister, hold on for now. I'll take you to a safe place!"
Jiang Li gritted his teeth and nodded.
Jun Yuelan held Jiang Li and swam forward quickly. Jiang Li buried her face in his strong chest. Because of the pain, she had to hold Jun Yuelan's hair tightly.
Jun Yuelan didn't care about these things. He swam forward with all his might, fearing that he would be too late.
Jiang Li originally thought that he would take him directly to find Elder Xingyu, but unexpectedly he took him to a cave.
At this time, the pain in her stomach subsided a lot, and she woke up and looked around.
The cave that Jun Yuelan brought her to was dark and wet, and outside the cave was the Sana River.
The cave cleverly separates it from the Sana River.
"Jun Yuelan, where is this?"
Jun Yuelan placed her gently in the cave, and the stones beneath her did not make her feel cold.
At this time, Jun Yuelan's beautiful fish tail had turned into a pair of strong and slender human legs.
Jiang Li was surprised and his eyes slowly moved upwards.
She found that Jun Yuelan was not wearing any clothes and was completely naked, which scared her so much that she howled.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Jun Yuelan, thinking something had happened, quickly leaned over.
Jiang Li was so scared that she stepped back repeatedly. Her cheeks were red, her eyes were tightly closed, and her hands were waving in front of her.
"Jun Yuelan, why aren't you wearing any clothes?"
Hearing this, Jun Yuelan finally reacted and looked down.
"I came out in a hurry and forgot to bring clothes."
His tone was very calm because it was nothing to him.
Anyway, he will be with Jiang Li in the future, so he will see it sooner or later.
"You...you should put on your clothes before talking to me!"
Jiang Li was extremely shy, and her face was as red as a freshly grilled shrimp.
Jun Yuelan rubbed her nose calmly, her tone full of playfulness, "It's too late. I have to go find Elder Xingyu, so I can't put on my clothes for the time being."
If she wasn't about to give birth, Jiang Li would definitely jump up and hit him on the head.
Isn't it obvious that he is trying to take advantage of the opportunity to act like a hooligan?
His stomach started to hurt again, and Jiang Li didn't want to waste time talking to him, so he hurriedly urged him, "Jun Yuelan, go call Elder Xingyu, I can't take it anymore, my stomach is starting to hurt again."
"Yeah, okay!"
After saying that, Jun Yuelan quickly turned around and dived into the Sana River, and the pair of human legs quickly turned into a fish tail.
Just before he left, Jiang Li didn't forget to shout at him, "Jun Yuelan, don't forget to put on your clothes!"
I don’t know if Jun Yuelan heard it or not. She only saw him leaving with his tail swung and his head not looking back.
After Jun Yuelan left, Jiang Li's stomachache became more and more severe.
The cave was damp and dark, and the sound of dripping water could be heard from time to time.
Jiang Li bit his lower lip in pain, and cold sweat kept coming out from his forehead and nose.
At this time, she missed modern medical equipment very much.
At least I can choose a caesarean section and avoid the pain of childbirth.
My lower body seemed to be blocked by something foreign and kept falling down.
No matter how hard she tried, the baby in her belly just refused to come out.
She was in so much pain that she had no strength to speak, and even her breathing became shallow.
She could only let the cold sweat cover her body and her sticky long hair scattered everywhere. It seemed like a very long time had passed.
She was already numb from the pain and could only feel her strength and water slowly draining away.
When will Jun Yuelan and Elder Xingyu come?
She seemed... a little overwhelmed.
If I really die like this, I will be unwilling to accept it...
