"Xia, are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
Wolf King's gentle voice rang in her ears, and Sheng Xia looked up in surprise: "No, what's wrong?"
Meeting his tender gaze, and seeing where his eyes were fixed, Sheng Xia blinked and lowered her head curiously.
"Oh my god, my belly is so big!"
It's only been one day. I've been eating a lot these past two days, but I shouldn't have gained weight so quickly. Is the rabbit's false pregnancy lasting that long?
It's been almost half a month.
Looking at her swollen belly, Sheng Xia felt like crying but had no tears.
Will I get stretch marks?
The mate's scream made the other males present shudder, and they nervously gathered around.
"Sister Xiaxia, what's wrong? Is your stomach upset?" Hu Xue frowned slightly, grabbed Sheng Xia's hand, and asked in a very soft voice.
“Sister Shengxia…” Xingmu curled his fingertips, his eyes filled with anxiety. He looked around at Shengxia, his hands trembling, but he still couldn’t see what was wrong.
What's wrong with her? Why is she suddenly so scared?
Would asking her directly scare her more?
I'm so worried if I don't ask...
Langge looked up at his mother, who was surrounded inside, shook his head helplessly, and walked to the side to wait quietly.
With the fathers next to the mothers, there was no way he could squeeze in. His past experiences of being taken advantage of told him that it was best to stay put and wait.
The anxious Lion and the worried Sheep refused to believe it and tugged at their fathers' trouser legs, shoving their heads into the gaps and trying to squeeze in.
Aoki's eyes turned cold, and he kicked Shi Qing off his leg. Tie Bai, standing beside him, kicked Yang Yuan to the door with a blank expression.
………
The two cubs exchanged a helpless glance, then dejectedly walked over to Wolf Song, pulled up a chair, and climbed up to sit down.
Meanwhile, the males' concern continued.
"Don't worry, it will be fine in a couple of days."
A hint of pity flashed in Jiao Sujin's glassy eyes. He raised his hand and gently ruffled her dark hair, speaking in a clear and elegant voice.
Yang Yun, her beautiful peach blossom eyes filled with a hint of sorrow, stood helplessly on the periphery, looking at Sheng Xia with worry.
Hearing her partner's concerned words, Sheng Xia's nervousness suddenly dissipated, and she smiled sweetly with her almond-shaped eyes.
Her jade-white fingertips lightly tapped the side, her eyes, which had turned from light pink to a ruddy pink due to anxiety, smiled and shook her head.
"I'm fine. I was just surprised to find that my belly is much bigger than yesterday."
My belly is big, but it doesn't affect my activities at all.
I wonder what's inside such a big belly?
Would a beast form also have a big belly?
Thinking of this, a sly glint flashed in Sheng Xia's eyes. With a thought, she transformed into a soft and adorable pink rabbit.
Her long, drooping ears twitched playfully as she looked down at her abdomen.
"Huh? The beast form's belly doesn't seem to have gotten bigger."
What's going on? This is such a strange case of false pregnancy.
She didn't hear a response for a long time, something was wrong... She blinked and looked up in confusion.
He met seven pairs of eyes that were flashing green light.
Shengxia suddenly took a big step back and bumped into Qingmu's leg.
With a bright smile, handsome Aoki bent down and reached out without hesitation to scoop up the soft, adorable pink bunny and hug it to his chest.
Suddenly, the view rose higher, and Shengxia's round rabbit eyes became even rounder. Her limbs flailed wildly in the air before she was trapped in a warm embrace.
She shifted uncomfortably, tilted her head back, and blinked her clear, bright eyes: "Big Lion...you quickly..." let go.
Before he could finish speaking, he saw a handsome face suddenly magnified, and then his stomach felt hot as Aoki's face was pressed against his.
Just like she's petting a cat, Aoki's petting a rabbit...
"Hahaha...stop...haha...big lion, you've touched...ha...my ticklish spot!"
After struggling to finish a sentence, Sheng Xia felt like she was about to burst out laughing, and looked helplessly at the handsome Aoki who was completely absorbed in the scene above her.
Noticing Shengxia's struggle, Qingmu immediately let go, stroked the pink rabbit's fur, and looked at her with lingering affection, his eyes shining.
Soon, everyone was in a chaotic mess.
The cheerful laughter carried far.
Wolf King's eyes flickered, and he quietly moved to the next room to find Snake Han. When he saw Snake Han, the witch doctor, eating, he paused in his steps.
Just as he was about to go back and come back later, the sharp-eyed Snake Han spotted him, and he stood up enthusiastically, waving and saying with loving eyes,
"Wolf cub, come here quickly, have some jerky. Leopard Spring just made it this morning, it's delicious."
Wolf King strode inside, exchanged a smile and nodded with Cat Ning beside him, then sat down in front of Snake Han and took the roasted meat in his hand.
She looked up and asked in a gentle tone,
Do you know about pseudopregnancy in rabbits?
Snake-Holding Witch Doctor is the longest-living orc in the tribe, so perhaps he knows the specifics of this matter.
"False pregnancy? You mean Xiaxia's current situation? It's alright, I've calculated the days, she'll be back to normal in five days at most, don't worry," the snake said with a smile.
He had been keeping an eye on Xiaxia and knew she was alright.
False pregnancy is rare among female rabbits, and many beastmen are unaware of it; it's a perfectly normal phenomenon.
Wolf King asked many questions out of concern, and returned home satisfied with the answers half an hour later.
A sharp wind blew by, and the house was warm and cozy, like a flower in bloom.
"Mom, when do we start selling things?"
The little lion came running over excitedly, tilted its head back curiously, and wagged its fluffy tail, outlining a soft curve.
He asked Maoning yesterday, and they said they would listen to their mother.
Upon hearing this, Shengxia stood up and took the lead in walking outside, saying as she went, "My mother doesn't know either, let's go ask her first."
Go ask where you can set up your stall and see if you can get ready to start now. Of course, it would be best to set up as soon as possible.
"Okay~" the three little ones responded happily, following behind them with little trots.
Soon, they arrived at the house where the snake and the others lived.
She Han and Mao Ning walked out side by side. Sheng Xia's eyes lit up, and she asked with a smile,
"How about we start selling things today?"
“Okay, I’ve already asked. We’ll still be selling things in their square. Chief Leopard will inform everyone.” Snake looked over with a loving expression.
Everyone readily agreed and skillfully went to the square, set up their goods, and began selling.
The beastmen who had been hibernating inside rushed out of the house, crowding the large square.
"Hey, slow down... don't rush." A male looked at the flying orc in the sky and shouted anxiously.
The beautiful snowy owl glanced back, then flew even faster, gradually increasing the distance between them. Their voices were distorted by the wind.
"The chief said there's food, what are you waiting for? I need to hurry and buy it... for... my partner..."
The male on the ground gritted his teeth and sped up. Everyone else was rushing to buy food, but he didn't lack food; instead, he planned to grab clothes.
He heard that the color of that garment was particularly vibrant and looked very warm; he wanted to buy one for his partner…
Such scenes occur in every corner of the tribe.
