Huge green vines rose from the ground beneath Aoki's feet, growing rapidly and lifting Aoki and the summer in his arms into the sky.
A vine sprouted a small branch, trembling as it grew towards the height of summer, its tip blossoming into a delicate, vibrant white flower.
As Sheng Xia turned her head to look, her gaze suddenly rose, and a small white flower suddenly appeared in front of her, emitting a faint fragrance.
Her eyes lit up, and she took the flowers.
"Medical Doctor Xia! We're here!"
"The witch doctor Xia..."
"..."
In the height of summer, she lowered her gaze and looked into the distance.
Under the bright sunshine, Wolf King Jiao Su and Tie Bai stood side by side at the front, with Lion Qing Lang Ge and Sheep Yuan protected behind them.
At the very back were Fox Snow and Sheep Cloud, squatting on the ground playing with Tie Yue and the others. They were having so much fun that the cubs were completely oblivious to the confrontation in front of them.
Ahead stood a densely packed group of excited beastmen, their families in tow, their eyes filled with anticipation.
Seeing this, Sheng Xia suddenly realized what was happening.
Could it be that they heard she was going to provide free medical care for females and cubs, and brought their families here to see her?
It has to be said, the truth of summer has been revealed.
Upon hearing the news, everyone was extremely excited. Instead of coming over immediately, they went to sea or out to find good things to use as payment.
Summer said it would be free, no coins or rewards needed, but nobody would actually come out empty-handed.
They all wanted to bring out the best things in their homes.
But they were too poor; they had nothing in their home…
That's why we went out together at midday and then came back with our families in the evening.
Shengxia patted Qingmu's arm, and Qingmu turned around, looking at Shengxia solemnly.
"Xia, protecting you is my responsibility."
With him around, no one can hurt a single hair on Xia's head!
In the setting sun, he spoke earnestly, his voice deep and pleasant.
Even if the words are a little bit cringeworthy.
It also stirred a deep emotion within Sheng Xia.
Beneath her long, dark brown eyelashes, her deep, affectionate phoenix eyes made Sheng Xia blush and her heart race.
Amidst the smooth golden hair, soft, fluffy golden ears suddenly peeked out and twitched slightly.
In the height of summer, her eyes lit up. Her love for plush toys kicked in, and she couldn't resist reaching out to touch it, before cautiously glancing at the ground.
Leaning forward, he whispered into Aoki's ear as he touched it, "I don't mean anything by touching your ear, I just like touching it."
Don't misunderstand, a vine-covered house suddenly appeared out of nowhere in front of so many beasts.
He's capable of doing it.
She knew she had important things to do, but... her hands seemed to have a mind of their own, unable to resist the sight of furry things.
Soon, Shengxia restrained herself, looked away, and put her hand down.
"Big Lion, let's go down."
"Okay, my Xia~"
Aoki smiled brightly, obediently did as he was told, bent his knees, hugged her, and jumped lightly, landing steadily and standing upright.
A few minutes later.
In the height of summer, she sat on a comfortable wooden chair, pursed her lips, rested her hand on Yu Xiang's wrist, and frowned slightly.
She blinked, somewhat puzzled.
This pulse...
Wait a minute, why is it a slippery pulse?
Not the kind that comes before your period.
Yu Xiang sat there nervously, and judging from Sheng Xia's expression, she was almost in tears.
The first few females were all treated with smiles and the witch doctor was fine, but when it came to her, she frowned and remained silent.
The tribe had just resolved the issue of her pregnancy, and things were looking up again. Had she contracted some incurable serious illness?
Crab Fire behind her also looked solemn.
Crab Fire patted Fish Fragrance's shoulder, took her hand, and offered silent comfort.
"Medical Doctor Xia, am I... going to die?"
A weak female voice rang out, and Sheng Xia looked up in surprise, meeting Yu Xiang's red-rimmed eyes, her face full of question marks.
Can anyone tell her what happened?
The female animals in line were filled with anxiety, anxiously clinging to their mates and seeking help.
"Could I have a problem too? I haven't seen a witch doctor in so many years..."
"Don't be afraid, it won't happen."
"..."
The voices grew louder and louder, and it was clear that the timid females were about to cry. Crab Red and the Chief exchanged a glance and moved through the group to maintain order.
Soon, the group quieted down again.
Sheng Xia's almond-shaped eyes curved into a smile as she realized that her earlier expression of confusion had been too obvious and had been misunderstood by the female in front of her.
She explained with a smile.
"Don't overthink it, you're in good health, it's just that you might be pregnant." That's probably an understatement.
She is pregnant.
But she only drank the fertility soup yesterday and got pregnant today. It's too miraculous and might cause an uproar.
Shengxia never imagined it would happen so quickly.
Normally, you can't feel a woman's pulse when she's newly pregnant, but miraculously, she could feel it clearly!
"What?!? I'm... I'm pregnant?" Yu Xiang stared wide-eyed in disbelief, then fell silent for a moment.
My nose stung, and my eyes felt swollen.
She stood there stunned for a long time, as if she couldn't believe it, and turned to look at her partner for confirmation. Xie Huo nodded with a look of ecstatic joy.
The females and their partners behind the fish also heard it, and when they came to their senses, they jumped up excitedly.
"Yu Xiang is pregnant!!!"
This scene made Sheng Xia's heart ache. She lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes fluttering. Then, as if remembering something, she looked up and stared at the line behind her with bright almond-shaped eyes.
This situation may not be an isolated case.
Even the wind seemed gentle at this moment.
Suddenly, a cheer erupted from the herd of beasts.
"Beast Goddess, she's really pregnant!!!"
Their partners hurriedly held each other in their arms and whispered words of advice.
"Watch your step, sweetie, be careful not to hurt yourself."
"Oh yeah, maybe I'm pregnant too! I was busy for so long last night..."
"..."
The good news quickly spread throughout the entire group, and the Crab Roe tribe was in an uproar. Crab Red, whose face was equally excited, and the chief, who was full of gratitude, spontaneously began to maintain order.
The free clinic lasted a long time. After seeing off the last female, Sheng Xia, exhausted, curled her lips into a relieved and satisfied smile.
"Xia, take a bath after dinner. I made the bathtub you mentioned!" Aoki ran over with a bright smile, picked up Shengxia, and placed her in front of the dining table.
“Okay~” Sheng Xia smiled sweetly and readily agreed.
It was late at night, and the moon was bright while the stars were few.
In the height of summer, she lay in a wooden bathtub made by Aoki, surrounded by three handsome men.
Fox Snow scrubbed her back, Jiao Su massaged her shoulders, and Yang Yun fed her.
Enjoying the sweet, glutinous white fruit that had been air-freighted from Jiaosu in the height of summer, she squinted her eyes in blissful happiness.
Being turned into a lazy bum on Xianyu (a Chinese online marketplace) this summer is so satisfying!
She couldn't help but feel fortunate that she hadn't traveled back to a feudal dynasty.
If she were to actually travel back to feudal ancient times, she would have to share even one husband with another woman, let alone receive this kind of treatment.
Shengxia opened her eyes, took a sip of juice, and hummed a little tune with a happy smile.
Yang Yun lowered her eyes, quietly gazing at the rosy-cheeked summer.
She has fair skin, black hair, and clear eyes. When she's happy, she unconsciously raises her chin.
So cute.
