Chapter 768 Time to Give Birth.
The meeting room door was pushed open from the inside without making a sound.
A boy walked out, his black hair sticking up in a messy updo, as if it had just been rubbed by a pillow, with a few strands of hair hanging above his brow bone, covering half of his eyes.
—It's Noel!
A chuckle flashed in Yu Zhizhi's dark eyes.
Noel looked like he had just woken up; his eyelids drooped heavily, and two faint dark circles hung under his eyes, making his pale face look even more tired.
The boy's lips were very light in color, and the corners of his mouth were slightly downturned, as if he had no interest in anything.
When it saw the little rabbit waiting at the door, its half-open, half-closed black eyes lit up slightly.
"came back?"
The boy's voice was hoarse, with the nasal tone characteristic of someone just waking up; each word seemed to roll around in his throat several times before he uttered it.
Noel's hand, hanging in mid-air, reached precisely for her wrist, his fingertips brushing against her sleeve, lightly encircling her without force, yet making it impossible for her to break free.
A light touch.
"Hmm." Noel lowered his gaze slightly, landing on her lower abdomen. "It's almost time for her to give birth, isn't it?"
Yu Zhizhi subconsciously put her hand in front of her lower abdomen.
Noel's gaze followed her movement to the hand, paused for a moment, and then slowly rose to meet her eyes.
"It's...it's still early." Yu Zhizhi's voice was more urgent than expected.
It might be because she is carrying the High Priest's child.
This has been a secret until now.
"Don't run around for a while." Noel rubbed his short black hair, as if he were just saying it casually, "It would be troublesome if you disturbed the fetus."
Yu Zhizhi nodded gently: "Mm."
That's what she was planning to do too.
The date of giving birth is getting closer and closer.
Yu Zhizhi wanted to hide in her dormitory; she needed to find a way to keep Zai Zai by her side.
Just ...
The incubator is still short of some points.
In the conference room.
A bubble floated out.
Sui Sui wagged her tail happily: "Mommy~ Welcome back!"
Mermaid babies don't differentiate into sexes until they are three years old.
Nowadays, Sui Sui looks only slightly smaller than a blue whale calf.
Sui Sui floated in the bubbles, looking just like a glutinous rice ball coated with light blue icing.
"Sui Sui~" Yu Zhizhi reached out and hugged the floating bubbles.
Her fingers could penetrate the bubbles and touch Sui Sui's cool, round body.
"My mommy's back! Noel, thank you for taking care of me these past few days! It seems the Valoran Empire isn't all bad after all!"
The black-haired boy leaned against the wall, looking very sleepy.
His fingers were still stuck in his messy black hair, in the position he hadn't had time to put down when he yawned, hanging there in mid-air like a lazy cat's paw that hadn't been retracted.
"You guys go back first, Zhizhi. I'll come to your dorm to find you later."
Yu Zhizhi paused for a moment, her rabbit ears perking up slightly: "Looking for me? Is there something you need?"
She was a little curious.
Noel slowly straightened up, looking down at Yu Zhizhi.
The drowsiness in the boy's half-open, dark-rimmed eyes suddenly subsided.
"This time, I will deliver your baby."
Yu Zhizhi: "..."
She suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
"No need, I... I can manage on my own."
"You're all alone?" Noel repeated softly, his voice rising slightly at the end, carrying a hint of amusement. "You can't even hold onto Sui Sui's tail, and you're all alone?"
"But...delivering babies is such a thing..." Yu Zhizhi's voice grew softer and softer until the last few words disappeared completely from her throat.
"Shy?" Noel's voice was muffled, as if he had a candy in his mouth. He tilted his head, his black hair slipping down his forehead, almost covering half of one eye: "In the eyes of a healer, patients have no gender distinction. Moreover, the birth of a new life is a sacred and heartwarming thing."
After saying this, Noel walked outside. His steps were slow and his back looked languid.
See you later.
Yu Zhizhi held Sui Sui in her arms, her face still flushed.
The little mermaid looked at her curiously: "Mommy, is Sui Sui going to have a younger brother or sister?"
"Hmm..." Yu Zhizhi looked at it and smiled. "Let's go home."
"Yay!" Sui Sui cheered.
I'm so happy to be able to go home with Mommy!
I'm so happy to have a younger brother or sister!
Sui Sui suddenly remembered the little spider: "Is Gray Jade alright? I heard something happened at the amusement park."
"Little Gray Jade is very good."
While in the dungeon, I contacted the amusement park and saw spider larvae in a video.
The turmoil at the amusement park has subsided.
Li Yuan, the Grand Tutor of the Moonrise Empire, has traced the origins of these robots back to their home planet.
Although Spider didn't mention this much, Yu Zhizhi could vaguely guess that Beast Star was about to launch a counterattack...!
Back at the embassy dormitory.
Sui Sui curiously wandered around the little house.
It drifted to the edge of the terrace, its round body supported by bubbles, like a small, light blue dumpling wrapped in transparent jelly.
It lay on the bubble wall, its nose pressed flat, its eyes fixed on the outside world.
This is my mother's hometown.
Holographic billboards lined both sides of the street, flying through the air between buildings, their taillights leaving long, neon-colored trails.
downstairs.
Someone walked through the lights with an umbrella.
The hot dog stand was emitting white smoke, and the owner's prosthetic arm was rapidly turning on the control panel, making a fine, rhythmic clicking sound.
In the distance, a giant holographic dragon peeked out from the side of a skyscraper and slowly blinked.
Sui Sui's tail tip gently patted the bubble.
It turned its head and looked at Yu Zhizhi: "So many lights! And Mom, that dragon is looking at me!"
Yu Zhizhi walked to the edge of the terrace, her rabbit ears tilting slightly backward in the night breeze. She peeked out from beside Sui Sui's water bubble, looking in the direction where the holographic dragon was slowly disappearing.
She glanced at the terrace beside her, her expression pausing slightly.
Next door, where the light and shadow don't reach.
This used to be where the little octopus lived.
After it left, a new neighbor moved in, who was also an intern at the embassy.
Yu Zhizhi's feelings were complicated.
She found that she had grown accustomed to the little octopus's company.
However, its talent seems to have brought it trouble.
Mechanical aliens are an example.
They arrived quickly, and behind them, other aliens were also eyeing them covetously!
Dracula said that the spider killing it was the most effective method in the short term. This way, no one else could find the baby octopus for a considerable period of time.
Yu Zhizhi sighed softly.
She took out her phone.
I saw everyone chatting in the team's group chat.
This is a short holiday.
The captain and the others are conserving their energy.
Yu Zhizhi glanced at the date.
There are still three days left until the time agreed upon with His Excellency the Duke.
Three days later...
She was about to attempt to summon His Majesty the Duke.
I wonder if it will be successful?
See you tomorrow~
