Beast World: A Fragile Beauty Blessed with Many Children-Chapter 101 - 100: Then I’ll Plead For You

Feeling quite excited, Si Shuo took out the Superpower Awakening Pill and first replicated one. Then, she took out the Hidden Beast Form Pearl to replicate.

However, she had only replicated two-thirds of the pearl when her superpower was completely exhausted...

’It’s fine as long as I can replicate it. Worst case, I’ll just finish it tomorrow.’

Si Shuo met Xu Chi’s focused and affectionate gaze. Her face flushed slightly as she gave a small laugh, taking out the new elixir and pearl to show him. "They’re a congratulatory gift from the Beast God," she explained. "With this Hidden Beast Form Pearl, we won’t have to worry about anyone discovering our cub’s Beast Form."

When Xu Chi had sensed his own bloodline earlier, he was filled with joy and excitement, but also a faint, underlying worry.

He was stunned for a moment, then hugged her tightly. "A Shuo, from now on, let’s do more good deeds, within our capabilities.

It must be because you saved hundreds of thousands of Beastmen in Puchang City that the Beast God is taking such good care of us."

Si Shuo didn’t explain. Her adapting to the local customs by taking them as her Beast Husbands and now having a cub was, in itself, a contribution to the Beast World Continent.

Besides, the system had rewarded her with plenty of good things, all meant for her to bring prosperity to the Beast World and improve the living conditions of the Beastmen.

"Okay," she said, "but there’s a right way to do good deeds. We can’t let our good intentions backfire. Ji Liang and Gong You are worldly and experienced; they should have plenty of good suggestions..."

After they came out of the tent, Xu Chi started to prepare breakfast for the two of them. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Si Shuo was carrying a cub and needed plenty of nutrients.

Fortunately, they had survived a Beast Tide and had a large stockpile of meat from all kinds of Wild Beasts, both from the land and the sky. They also had plenty of seafood Gong You had caught for Si Shuo, as well as fruit gathered from the coast.

It was Si Shuo’s first time carrying a cub, after all, and one of his own bloodline. On the surface, Xu Chi appeared as calm as ever, but he kept messing up—either adding too much water, forgetting the salt, ginger, and scallions, or simply burning the meat.

This prompted frequent sidelong glances from Yimei and her family next door. "Si Shuo, what’s up with your Xu Chi? How can he not even cook anymore?"

Si Shuo pursed her lips, smiling. "Ah, perhaps a certain someone is about to become a Father and has stopped caring about this little female of his."

Xu Chi’s head snapped toward her. Seeing the laughter in the little female’s eyes, he pursed his lips and whispered helplessly, "A Shuo, I’m just so nervous for you.

I’m the only male by your side right now, and I’m worried I won’t take good care of you. It’s making me clumsy.

Are you hungry? We could eat some of the food we already have, and I can keep simmering the fish soup for you."

Si Shuo shook her head. She couldn’t resist sitting down next to him and resting her head on his shoulder. "I like the version of Xu Chi who makes mistakes and gets nervous. I remember when I first met you, you were like an emotionless machine... an emotionless Fierce Beast. You didn’t cry, you didn’t laugh. Even though you had already decided I was your female, I never felt how deep your feelings for me were..."

Xu Chi pulled her into a tight embrace, kissing her forehead tenderly. A smile touched his lips. "I liked you so much, right from the first moment I saw you. I always felt that the Beast God took pity on me and sent you to my side. You were so beautiful, so lively, so playful.

All I wanted was to carry you on my back and just keep walking, just the two of us."

Si Shuo rarely heard him analyze his feelings so openly. She smiled, about to say that she was all his for the day, when she saw Yimei and her three cubs staring right at her.

She cleared her throat and slipped out of Xu Chi’s embrace. "Let’s eat first. We can go see Ji Liang later."

Only then did Yimei happily whisper, "Si Shuo, are you having a cub?"

Si Shuo nodded. "Xu Chi said he sensed it. And besides, my Mating Period ended early this time."

Female Cat Beasts had frequent Mating Periods, occurring once or twice a month, which was the easiest time for them to conceive cubs.

Once they conceived, their Mating Periods would stop entirely; there was no such thing as menstruation for them.

Yimei was even happier than if she herself were the one expecting. She grabbed Si Shuo and immediately began imparting her limited maternal wisdom, much of which she had picked up from other females.

"Don’t you worry, Si Shuo! With me here, I’ll make sure you have a safe and smooth delivery!"

Si Shuo pursed her lips into a smile. ’In truth, I also have a Healing Ability, one as gentle as a spring breeze, but I’ve never had the chance to train and strengthen it.’

Xu Chi was simmering a creamy, white fish soup. The fish itself had been specially caught by Gong You that morning and left in the communal area, along with some dewy wild ginger, fragrant scallions, and garlic.

After being cleaned and scored, the fish was marinated briefly. Then it was placed in a clay pot with a little animal fat and pan-fried on both sides until golden. Only then was water added to let it slowly simmer.

The soup gradually turned a milky white, and an incredibly tempting aroma wafted directly toward Si Shuo.

She hadn’t felt particularly hungry a moment ago, but now a wave of ravenous hunger washed over her. The feeling was so intense it rose to her throat, making her feel almost nauseous.

Zhi Le, for his part, had raided several birds’ nests and put all sorts of eggs in the communal area as well.

Xu Chi took some flour and bird eggs, added a little salt and scallions, and mixed it all with water to make a batter. He was making the soft, fragrant egg pancakes that were Si Shuo’s favorite!

The scent of flour and eggs traveled far, utterly tantalizing!

"Xu Chi, I’m hungry," she said, sounding pitiful.

Xu Chi hurriedly took out some corn.

But Si Shuo, who usually loved to gnaw on corn, found that she couldn’t taste any of its fresh sweetness. It was completely bland. She immediately pushed it toward him. "It’s not good! It has no flavor!"

Xu Chi frowned slightly and took a bite. It tasted exactly the same as their usual corn.

He didn’t say anything, however, and simply took out some rice porridge with brown sugar.

Si Shuo turned her head away. "I don’t want that. I... I want small fish!"

The small fish she was talking about were the ones Gong You usually gave her when he teased her.

Those little fish lived in the deep sea; they were small but had a rich flavor. After being marinated and air-dried, they became exceptionally fragrant, chewy, and crisp.

Xu Chi lowered his voice. "A Shuo, how about I write a letter to Gong You and ask him for some small fish?"

Si Shuo’s eyes shifted. She asked in a small, slightly guilty voice, "Xu Chi, what reason would you use?"

Although the males usually got along harmoniously, they were still slowly learning to navigate their relationships with one another, figuring out each other’s tempers and boundaries.

They had all tacitly agreed to wait until Si Shuo was settled in the Central Continent before they slowly started planning to have cubs.

But now, with Zhi Le and Gong You away on the spring hunt and Ji Liang fighting in the arenas, she had ended up with a cub in her belly.

Even though she and Xu Chi were officially mated partners, Si Shuo couldn’t shake an indescribable feeling of guilt. Just imagining the others’ sullen faces made her heart flutter with apprehension.

Xu Chi couldn’t help but rub his nose. "We’ll just have to tell the truth. When... when Gong You gets back, I’ll let him beat me up once."

Si Shuo looked at him with a glimmer of sympathy. "It might take more than one beating to settle things."

’Zhi Le and Ji Liang will want to fight him too!’

Xu Chi chuckled. "That’s only right. As long as it doesn’t stop me from taking care of you, they can do whatever they want."

Si Shuo laughed. "Well, in that case, I’ll plead for you..."

But this time, Xu Chi was the one who understood. "A Shuo, if you really feel bad for me, then don’t say or do anything. Otherwise, the brothers will probably be even harder on me."

Males who were favored by their female had confidence; their concern was never about scarcity, but about inequality!
