Future Beast World: Becoming A Pampered Beauty-Chapter 217 - 161: If You Can Give Birth, I Can Refine
"I’ve never tried, but that doesn’t mean I don’t know how... If even I can’t craft the Reincarnation Pill, I’m afraid no one in this world can." Fei Yuan looked at her. "As long as you can bear a child, I can craft the pill."
Sang Luo said, "But didn’t you say only a fragmented scroll was left?"
"Fragmented scrolls can be restored, and I just so happen to know a thing or two about restoration."
"You’re really not lying to me?"
"This Monarch wouldn’t stoop to deceiving a little female like you, Little Luoruo. They say if you use someone, you should trust them. For now, you’d be better off thinking about how to conceive this Monarch’s heir." Fei Yuan’s voice was deep and chilling. "You must have heard the rumors about me."
’...’ *Cough.* ’Isn’t it just that he’s no good in that department? It’s not like he’s a eunuch. As long as that thing is still there, I refuse to believe I can’t get pregnant.’
"Deal!"
"Good." Fei Yuan produced a piece of paper, took her finger, and dipped it onto an ink pad. "Here, leave your mark."
"I’m right here. It’s not like I’m going to run away."
Sang Luo was speechless. After they both left their fingerprints, she took the contract and looked it over before making an exorbitant demand. "I’m adding another condition. You’ll provide all the elixirs I need for childbirth, and all the elixirs I’ll need in the future—for the rest of my life!"
"...You want me to provide elixirs for when you have children with other Male Beasts, too?" Fei Yuan’s face fell. "Little Luoruo, don’t be too greedy."
’He had readily agreed to the first part, but the second... Wasn’t that basically him signing himself into servitude for her?’
’Could it be that his recent attentiveness had given this outrageously defiant little female the wrong idea, making her think he was an easygoing Monarch?’
"Don’t like it? Then let’s just forget the whole thing." Sang Luo lay back down on the bed.
Fei Yuan gritted his teeth, half-furious, half-amused. "Fine. I’ll cover everything."
"A written contract isn’t enough. What if you go back on your word? I want you to swear a Heavenly Dao Oath."
"...Fine."
A mystical golden array appeared beneath their feet as Fei Yuan swore the Heavenly Dao Oath.
He watched her, his eyes filled with amusement. ’What a cute and cunning little thing.’
Once the power of the oath vanished into the void, Sang Luo slipped into his embrace, tilted his chin up, and asked flirtatiously, "So, does Your Majesty want a big, healthy baby girl or a big, healthy baby boy?"
’She certainly gets into character quickly,’ Fei Yuan thought, a smile in his eyes. He gently rubbed her abdomen with his large hand. "Either is fine. I’d like them both. Best of all would be to get pregnant with two at once and give this Monarch a set of twins—a boy and a girl."
"Alright then. We’ll talk about it after my month of confinement is over."
"Mm, I’ll take care of you through your confinement."
"...Getting pregnant again right after giving birth... isn’t that a little rushed? Never mind. I think I’ll rest for another two months before we discuss it."
"Alright. This Monarch is not in a hurry." ’I’ve waited this long,’ he thought. ’I don’t mind waiting a little longer.’
...
A little over half a month later, Si Ye returned with their child.
Although Sang Luo was supposed to be in her month of confinement, her body had already mostly recovered. Sensing the father and daughter’s return, she teleported outside and threw herself into his arms. "Ah Ye!"
Si Ye, afraid she might fall, chided her gently, "Be careful."
"How did the blessing ceremony go? Did everything go smoothly?"
"It went exceptionally well." Si Ye smiled. "You should have seen it. When I brought Zhenzhen back, several of the clan Elders fainted on the spot. One of the older ones got so excited he almost passed away."
"What? Was it that dramatic?"
"Even more dramatic than I’m describing!" Si Ye nodded emphatically and looked down at the swaddled baby in his arms. "The entire Bian Clan treasures this child. I never got this much fanfare when I was young. The Elders all wanted Zhenzhen to stay with the clan and refused to let her leave. I had to sneak her out in the middle of the night; otherwise, we wouldn’t have been able to get away so quickly."
"...Now I’m kind of regretting not going to watch the drama unfold."
"Heh, I really should have taken you. The clan has been in an absolute frenzy for the last half-month! My mother was worried the Phoenix Clan would try to snatch her, so the same day the blessing ceremony ended, she announced to the world that Little Zhenzhen would be the next heir to the Bian Clan. She plans to abdicate and enjoy her retirement as soon as Little Zhenzhen comes of age and can rule."
"I remember the next heir was supposed to be you, wasn’t it?"
"My mother skipped me." Si Ye wasn’t the least bit surprised. "Females are the key to a race’s survival. If there are male and female heirs of equal standing, all the major races prioritize the female descendant for the throne."
Of course, Si Ye had a carefree nature and no desire to inherit the position of Clan Leader, so he was happy to be let off the hook.
Before, Si Jing only had him for a son, so she was always clinging to him. Now, her attention was completely focused on her little granddaughter. She couldn’t care less whether Si Ye stayed or left.
"There’s one more thing. The High Priest gave Little Zhenzhen a name." Si Ye took out an exquisitely carved wooden slip.
Sang Luo took it to have a look. A name was carved on it.
[Shengxin]
"Si Shengxin," Sang Luo murmured, smiling gently. "Our daughter is sure to become an exceptional person with a proud, unyielding spirit."
"AWOO~"
The Little Bian’s cries were no longer as faint and weak as when she was born; they had become much crisper.
Si Ye handed the child to her. "She’s awake." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
Sang Luo gazed at the little cub in her arms. Having not seen her for over half a month, she noticed her fur had grown longer and much thicker, though it was still a dusty gray. She wondered if the color would change later.
"Oh, my poor, ugly little daughter..."
As if she understood, the little cub slowly opened her eyes and looked at her mother in confusion.
Sang Luo quickly changed her tune. "Oh, my beautiful daughter, you look just like your daddy!"
Little Zhenzhen could open her eyes now. They were beautiful, ruby-like beast pupils, upturned at the corners—the same alluring "peach-blossom eyes" as Si Ye. One look at her beast form was enough to see how adorable and pretty she was. Who knew how many Male Beasts’ hearts she would steal when she grew up!
"I’m the most handsome male Bian of the younger generation. How could a daughter of mine be ugly?" After feeding the baby, Si Ye carried her to her little wooden bed in the bedchamber.
Sang Luo followed him into the chamber.
Si Ye turned and hugged her, asking in a low voice, "Luoluo, there’s one more thing I want to discuss with you."
"Hm? What is it?" ’It must be about the baby,’ Sang Luo thought.
"About our wedding last time... shouldn’t we have a do-over?"
Sang Luo froze for a second, then her eyes curved into a smile. She tapped his soft, vibrant lips with a fair finger, stroking them playfully. "Hm? Why the sudden urge for another wedding? Our child is already born, so it doesn’t really matter if we have one or not..."
"It does! We have to!" Si Ye insisted, a little annoyed.
"Alright, alright. When do you want to do it?" Sang Luo placated him.
Si Ye glanced her up and down. "Your body... how’s the recovery going?"
Sang Luo wrapped her arms around his neck and blew a soft breath against his ear. "We could have our wedding night as soon as tonight~"
The red in Si Ye’s eyes deepened, and his Adam’s apple bobbed.
’A young Male Beast who has had his first taste of passion is greedy. It had been almost a year since he’d last touched her, and he was a male with normal desires...’
’He hadn’t dared to touch her while she was pregnant, always finding relief on his own in secret...’
’He had missed the taste of her for so long...’
Si Ye lowered his head and nipped her lip, his voice hoarse with affection. "You really are a Demon."
"Then tonight~ shall we move back to the Marquis Mansion? This little Demon still has plenty of wicked tricks she hasn’t used on the Young Master yet..." Sang Luo’s gaze grew even more soft and seductive, sending Si Ye’s blood rushing to one spot. His breathing hitched, and he cupped her face for a fierce kiss, silencing the brazen words about to spill from her lips.
"Wait, after... after the wedding, we’ll..." Si Ye released her, his face beet-red, and whispered, "...we’ll do what we did that other night."
