Chapter 203 - 101: The Third Transaction
On the surface, Su Jiameng’s life returned to normal. Every day, she would idly measure the surface area of her two eggshells. Probably having been neglected by their mother for the past few days, the eggs now thoroughly enjoyed this previously disliked activity.
"Changxi, take a look at their patterns; they seem like they might hatch in three to five days, right?" Su Jiameng discovered something delightful one morning: the patterns on her two eggs’ shells had matured and could crack open at any moment.
"Hmm... it seems that way." Changxi took a look and indeed found it to be true. Furthermore, the telekinesis abilities of these two eggs were also in a highly active and rapidly developing stage. "The two young masters are about to be born."
Su Jiameng’s cheeks flushed with excitement; she wished she could just stay with them these next two days, eagerly awaiting the moment Beibi cracked open. In the evening, during their training, Gu Ningxuan, who had just returned from work, noticed that something was off about her mood.
After learning the reason for her excitement from Changxi, Gu Ningxuan was a bit stunned, seemingly unable to come to terms with the news that the sixteen-year-old girl was about to become a mother. In his eyes, Su Jiameng was still a child, and now she was having her own child.
"By the way, I’ve been living here for quite some time, but I have yet to see the children’s father." Not knowing Su Jiameng’s backstory, Gu Ningxuan unwittingly asked a dumb question he would never have asked had he known the full story.
"An unnecessary piece of trash, probably already close to the recycling station..." Changxi said, rubbing his chin. "Anyway, the master doesn’t care; whether or not this character exists is irrelevant. As the master’s children, the young masters will adjust to this reality."
Gu Ningxuan felt awkward. Why did it seem like something was off about Changxi’s words?
The eggs were about to hatch. Where should she take them for delivery? Give birth at home or in a hospital? The anxious soon-to-be mother went online to a parenting forum to ask around after undergoing inhumane training.
Since the internet required real-name registration, many details could be hidden, but gender and age couldn’t be concealed.
Using the simple username CYF2012141150, Su Jiameng posted her question. A bunch of people were initially going to answer eagerly, but upon seeing her age and gender, their enthusiasm died out, thinking Su Jiameng was joking! A sixteen-year-old mother? Must be kidding!
Seeing her post sink with every posting, Su Jiameng was perplexed. After posting the same question six times, she finally got a reply, only to be told that unlike other forums, the parenting forum did not allow spamming!
Spamming posts was not allowed, or else her ID would be banned. Su Jiameng felt wronged, as she wasn’t intentionally spamming.
"I just want to know the answer to this question, and if it doesn’t work out, I’ll just have to ask somewhere else."
She sent this message across, and the other party replied quickly, saying things completely without a hint of temper.
Posting such questions at sixteen is easily taken as a joke, and it’s perfectly normal for others not to answer your question.
"But no one ever said a sixteen-year-old can’t have a child..." Su Jiameng could be decisive in other matters, but when it came to things relating to her eggs, she would become rather slow and adorably foolish.
The person hesitated and posted a floor, asking, "Are you serious? You... have a child on the way?"
The thread Su Jiameng created nearly turned into a personal chat between the two. "Yeah, the child is estimated to hatch in about three or four days."
The other party sent a long silence, then a consoling emoji, gently providing various explanations.
They explained in detail what to pay attention to when the eggshells crack and how to care for the babies in the first month after birth. Su Jiameng took notes earnestly. To her, being a mother was neither an easy nor simple task and required her to dedicate one hundred percent of her energy to learning and improving.
"So that’s how it is. I get it." Su Jiameng breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that the eggs could hatch and be cared for at home. If they were born in a hospital, she wouldn’t be able to hide their natural Simoles Deficiency Syndrome, so having them at home was best.
Su Jiameng noted down the other party’s ID, thinking she could consult this knowledgeable senior again if problems arose in the future.
"Flying Phoenix?" Su Jiameng read the ID aloud once and then logged off, signing into the Plane Trading Platform. As usual, she checked the posted trade requests and found that no one had taken the task, feeling a sense of disappointment inside her.
