"Oh? Is that so? That's good too, hahaha. I just thought Xiaxia was too thin and looked pitiful. It would be so nice if she gained weight..."
Snake glanced at Shengxia with concern, then forced a smile to defuse the situation.
Mao Ning frowned slightly but quickly relaxed, glanced back at the group of males whose smiles had frozen on their faces and who looked disappointed, and coughed.
"Everyone get ready, let's go with the Daolang tribe to sell things in the tribe."
"good!"
This little incident passed quickly, and none of the simple-minded beastmen took it to heart, but Shengxia felt uneasy.
She clutched the wolf king's clothes tightly with both hands, her gaze hesitantly falling to her swollen belly. Strange... she'd been eating a lot lately...
Surely she can't have gained weight that quickly?
Seeing her actions, a hint of pity flashed in Wolf King's eyes. He gently reached out and ruffled her hair, offering silent comfort.
Fox Snow looked at Sheng Xia thoughtfully. Sister Xia Xia doesn't seem to have simply gained weight…
His slightly upturned eyes and the vivid red birthmark added to his allure. He smiled casually, offering words of comfort.
"Don't overthink it, Xiaxia. You look beautiful even with a little extra weight. I love you no matter what!"
After speaking, he slowly blinked his right eye.
Looking into those captivating eyes, Sheng Xia felt as if her heart had been struck for a moment, and she awkwardly looked away.
She even responded to her partner, "I know."
Yang Yun and Xing Mu were very emotional, their worry almost tangible. Afraid that Sheng Xia would notice something, they deliberately turned their gaze away.
Seeing Aoki next to me, grinning from ear to ear just like the three little ones, I was genuinely happy for her because she had gained weight.
...
Jiao Su strode over, lifted Sheng Xia's chin, and met her wet eyes.
She was somewhat dazed, her pretty little face was deathly pale, and the soft animal skin wrapped her tightly, making her look extremely delicate and frail.
Seeing the doubt in her eyes, his heart softened, and he couldn't help but lean closer and kiss her lips, his soft, gentle voice low.
"Xia, this is a false pregnancy unique to the rabbit clan. It will be fine in a few days. If you want babies, we can have them with you during your next heat cycle."
The moment those soft, slightly cool lips touched hers, Shengxia's mind went blank, and she slumped into Wolf King's arms, letting out a soft moan.
"Mmm~ Su Su..."
A gentle breeze blew by, and Shengxia, startled, quickly realized what was happening and grabbed Jiaosu's hand.
"What did you say? A rabbit faking pregnancy?"
Oh, right!
She had heard this claim in modern times: female rabbits in estrus will exhibit physiological and behavioral behaviors similar to pregnancy, such as abdominal swelling, when stimulated, but they are not actually pregnant.
She is indeed a female rabbit in her beast form, but what triggered her?
Everything was fine before... Shengxia was completely puzzled. She looked up into the distance and met Qingmu's curious gaze. She curled her fingertips.
Could it be... that he transformed into his beast form that day?
As if thinking of something, Shengxia's cheeks quickly flushed red, her eyes staring at the ground in a panic, her long eyelashes fluttering.
Leopard, at the head of the group, subtly instructed the two males, "Keep a close eye on that female; she's pregnant and needs protection."
Regardless of whether she wanted to join their Flying Knife tribe, he couldn't bear to see a pregnant female suffer during the snowy season.
"Alright!" the two males said in unison, then ran lightly to the back and transformed into yellow jackals over two meters tall.
With wary eyes, he glanced around and followed Sheng Xia at a distance.
The wolf king and his companions exchanged a smile upon seeing this, and did not refuse their kindness. If it were them, they would also pay more attention to females outside during the snowy season.
Protecting females is a belief ingrained in the males' very bones.
The wind howled, and the leaves rustled.
A group of orcs moved swiftly forward, their steps light as they traversed the jungle.
In the height of summer, she changed her mount and sat on the back of the golden lion, enveloped in soft fur. Her eyelids gradually grew heavy, and she soon became drowsy.
The lion noticed that the fur she was holding loosened, so he immediately slowed down, looked back, and saw that she had closed her eyes and was almost asleep.
"Xia, don't worry, you won't fall. I'll have Xingmu come up and hold you."
As soon as he finished speaking, his tail swept towards Xingmu beside him. Xingmu blinked his blue eyes and nimbly dodged.
………
The lion's eyes lit up, and he glanced back at him. "Not bad, you're faster again! Come on up, Xiaxia's sleepy, come and hold her for a while."
The look in his eyes as he looked at Xingmu clearly showed admiration.
Xiaxia could have a few more of these handsome, powerful, and ambitious males!
Xingmu's eyes flickered, his face flushed and he stammered, "But...I...I...am male."
How can a male sit on another male's back?
Only a male's back can be sat on by his mate.
"Just sit down, why all the nonsense? I don't mind. You're Xiaxia's partner, so you're my partner too... my companion!"
Aoki almost got himself into trouble, and stamped his foot, somewhat annoyed and angry, and said.
The little lamb in the sky slowly descended, flapping its icy blue wings, its affectionate gaze fixed on the little female on the golden lion's back, her tightly closed eyes concealing her bright eyes.
Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, suggesting she wasn't sleeping soundly.
Yang Yun blinked, leaned close to Xing Mu, and whispered, "Go ahead, we don't care about these things in our family. Xia Xia is pregnant, so it won't be comfortable for her to lie like that. Go up and hold her."
Hearing her say that her stomach hurt, Xingmu's heart tightened, and he no longer hesitated, "Okay."
He leaped decisively, landing steadily on the lion's back. He gently pulled the sleeping female into his arms, gazing at her rosy face with adoration.
Sister Shengxia is so beautiful...
The two jackal guards responsible for protecting the summer exchanged a glance. One of them ran to the front of the group and whispered a few words to a golden leopard.
The leopard nodded and made a gesture, and the group slowed down abruptly as they approached a canyon.
Dozens of orcs blocked the entrance to the valley, making it completely impenetrable.
The howling wind couldn't get through, so it abruptly changed direction, "Whoosh~ Whoosh~!"
The wind howled violently, echoing throughout the narrow valley, as if the mountainside were about to crack open.
In the slumber of summer, she vaguely heard a terrifying sound. Opening her unfocused eyes, still feeling groggy from sleep, she looked ahead in a daze.
Dozens of giant plush animals walked very lightly through the narrow valley.
Looking up, the sky turned into a line, and Shengxia's heart skipped a beat. How did she end up here?
The wind howled and the birds cried; even in the sweltering summer heat, covering one's ears sent shivers down one's spine.
"Sister Shengxia, are you alright?"
Xingmu noticed her movement, peeked out from behind, rested his chin on her shoulder, and looked at her sideways.
Looking into those pure blue eyes so close to hers, Sheng Xia smiled and shook her head: "I'm fine."
