Bai Yingying listened to Ning Lan's story.
My heart aches. I can’t imagine how much injustice Luo Chen has suffered. I can’t imagine where his powerful fighting ability comes from.
There is no one to protect or teach you, and you have to go through actual combat and get your head broken and bloody again and again. Doesn’t it hurt?
Luo Chen, like this, can still remain simple.
Thanks to his self-protection mechanism, he developed a socially anxious personality and stopped interacting with those people, instead maintaining his true nature.
Otherwise, he would become a pervert like Xiao Mingcheng.
Luo Chen could hear these words while hiding in the room.
He wanted to rush out and stop his mother from telling these embarrassing past events to his little witch, but he didn't have the courage to speak.
He was scared.
As soon as he saw his mother, he remembered her worried and unhappy expression. "Achen, you have to be good and obedient. Don't always cause trouble for the family..."
He wanted to say he wasn't in trouble.
He is also very well behaved.
However, he felt uncomfortable when he heard those words and felt pain when he was beaten.
Later, he learned to hide.
As long as you stay out of the way, nothing will happen.
Although it was a bit lonely, he enjoyed it very much.
Every time I lay quietly in the shallows, there was no laughter or provocation in my ears, only the sound of splashing water, which was very pleasant.
Especially when the weather is nice.
He likes basking in the sun the most, it’s warm and comfortable.
Just like the feeling of being with Bai Yingying now, it was like soaking in warm water, making him reluctant to leave.
Ning Lan held Bai Yingying's hand and said with relief, "We were the ones who let Achen down. Now that you're by his side, I can rest assured."
"As a partner, I can't fill the void he has for his family. Moreover, the way he is now, he can't fit into group life at all. These can't be compensated by apologies." Bai Yingying said coldly.
Ning Lan's eyes quickly filled with tears. "I regret it too. But, I really had limited energy during those two years. Ah Xing needed someone to be with her all the time, and Ah Yue was young and needed close care. Ah Chen was the only one I could worry about the least, so I neglected him..."
Her voice choked: "It's not that I don't love him..."
Bai Yingying looked at Ning Lan's heartfelt crying and couldn't help but sigh. As the old saying goes, the crying child gets the milk.
Her Achen is just too well-behaved.
Bai Yingying had no right to blame Ning Lan, as it was difficult for an honest judge to judge family affairs.
Was Ning Lan wrong? She was definitely wrong, but it wasn't her fault.
However, she had no way to make up for the consequences.
Luo Chen did not resent them because his feelings for them had faded long ago and now they were just strangers with blood ties.
All Bai Yingying needs to do is to maintain this face for Luo Chen.
It is the best choice for both her and Luo Chen.
Bai Yingying didn't say anything more and changed the subject.
"I'm going to give birth in less than a week, and Achen and I will continue to live on this deserted island."
Ning Lan wiped away her tears and nodded continuously.
She glanced reluctantly in the direction of the small building and said, "Okay. You can live here...Achen likes it here."
Bai Yingying nodded and stopped talking.
Ning Lan calmed down and said with a faint smile, "After you give birth, let Achen take care of you. I will ask his father to send you prey."
The distance between the two sides of the strait is not a problem for the saltwater crocodiles.
At full speed, a red-level orc can swim back and forth in half an hour.
Bai Yingying considered that there would be many cubs and Luo Chen would have no time to go hunting on the other side if he helped take care of them, so she decided to agree.
At this moment, Luo Chen's firm voice came from behind: "No, no need..."
Bai Yingying turned around in surprise and saw Luo Chen standing at the door with his fists clenched, his eyes lowered and an indifferent expression.
But she knew that Luo Chen was just suppressing his discomfort and was not really indifferent.
But Ning Lan didn't understand, and with Luo Chen's refusal, a look of hurt flashed across her face, and she was about to cry.
Coincidentally.
Luo Dahua returned with his men at this time.
Seeing this, he was very annoyed and scolded without hesitation: "Luo Chen! You bastard! Always making your mother sad!"
Upon hearing this, Luo Chen was like a frightened bird. He quickly stepped back and closed the door. Instantly, crackling sounds were heard from inside the house.
This was because he panicked and transformed back into his animal form, knocking over things in the house.
Bai Yingying looked back, her expression turned cold, and she pulled her hand out of Ning Lan's. She said loudly, "Please leave. I don't accept your help."
"No! No!" Ning Lan was shocked by Luo Chen's reaction just now. Only after hearing Bai Yingying's words of expulsion did she react.
She quickly shook her head, "Brother Hua, it's not Luo Chen's fault, it's our fault. Don't scold him all the time. He didn't make me sad, I'm the one who cries."
Ning Lan looked at Luo Dahua with a pleading look on her face, hoping that he could control his temper.
Luo Dahua also knew that he had said the wrong thing in a moment of haste, and he shut up with an unnatural look on his face.
At this time, the young man behind Luo Dahua came out. He couldn't help but ask, "How long has the little female been pregnant? Why is her belly so big?"
Bai Yingying had a cold face and did not answer.
Ning Lan quickly replied, "It's almost three months."
She explained to Bai Yingying, "The witch doctor is too old and weak to come to the deserted island. She has no female offspring. This is the next witch doctor, Luo Qing."
Luo Dahua then began to introduce: "Yes. Luo Qing is an excellent doctor. The witch doctor said that he should deliver your baby here and take care of the baby until it is one month old before leaving."
Bai Yingying looked strange.
Letting a male beastman deliver the baby? Are you kidding me?
But seeing the natural expressions of the three people, it was clear that this was a common occurrence.
That’s right.
Orcs don't care about the privacy of their bodies, and witch doctors are precious and have a high status.
When conditions are not favorable, it is very easy for both female and male beastmen to accept male beastmen delivering babies.
Bai Yingying refused: "No need."
It wasn't that she was shy, but Luo Dahua's subconscious rebuke just now.
And Luo Chen's attitude of refusing his family's help.
All these made Bai Yingying understand that it would be better for Luo Chen not to have any close contact with his family, otherwise all her efforts in recent days would be wasted.
And she will not have a difficult delivery, there will be no pain during childbirth, and the delivery will not be difficult. She can take a recovery pill when the time comes, and there will be no need to worry about postpartum problems.
It’s just that I can’t rank the babies.
