Chapter 33: The Heiress Campus Beauty and the Illegitimate Son Campus Bully
In an instant, a Dragon-Phoenix Pill, radiating a soft, gentle glow, appeared in her palm. Song Qian took a deep breath and swallowed the pill. As the surge of spiritual energy began to churn within her, she could not help but ask the system, "System, why does this Dragon-Phoenix Pill cause such a spiritual backlash?" The system’s cute voice echoed slowly in her mind: "Host, the Dragon-Phoenix Pill contains immense spiritual power and the essence of life. It must forge special spiritual meridians within you to nurture the consciousness and foundation of the dragon-phoenix twins. This process temporarily conflicts with your own spiritual energy, thus causing the shock. However, please rest assured; your body has been strengthened and is fully capable of enduring it. Once the spiritual meridians are successfully established, peace will be restored, which will be of great benefit to both you and the fetuses."
Su Yao nodded slightly upon hearing this. Though she still felt uncomfortable, she gritted her teeth for the sake of the babies in her womb, silently guiding the chaotic spiritual energy within her in an attempt to stabilize it.
A moment later, she felt a warm current flowing slowly through her body. At first, it was gentle, like a spring stream, but gradually, the warmth became turbulent and surging, as if a powerful force were churning and roiling inside her. Song Qian’s face turned pale, and fine beads of sweat broke out on her forehead. She bit her lower lip hard, struggling to keep from letting out a moan of pain.
Xiao Yi, in his sleep, seemed to sense that something was wrong with Song Qian. He jerked awake, and seeing her pained expression, asked anxiously, "Song Qian, what's wrong? Where do you feel unwell?" Song Qian shook her head weakly, "I'm fine, just a minor issue." She did not want to worry him, so she endured the intense pain.
As time passed, the force gradually gathered in her abdomen, and the pain slowly subsided. Song Qian could clearly feel a marvelous transformation taking place within her, as if two little lives were quietly gestating. A smile of relief and happiness spread across her face, and she unconsciously rested her hand on her belly.
Xiao Yi watched her nervously from the side. Although he was filled with doubts, seeing Song Qian’s smile eased his mind. He secretly resolved to take even greater care of her and to protect their home with all his might.
In the early days of their marriage, Song Qian took advantage of a moment of solitude to obtain the Dragon-Phoenix Pill from the system and consume it. Before long, her body began to show wondrous reactions, and she often felt fatigued and slightly unwell. Song Qian knew in her heart that this was the quiet gestation of new life.
When Xiao Yi noticed the changes in Song Qian, he was filled with confusion and worry. It was not until Song Qian, blushing, told him the news of her pregnancy that Xiao Yi was stunned for a moment, followed by a radiant, brilliant smile of surprise that seemed capable of dispelling all the gloom in the world. He excitedly lifted Song Qian gently, spun her around in the air, and then lowered her with the utmost care. His eyes were filled with the joy and trepidation of a man becoming a father for the first time: "My dear, is this true? We are going to have our own child? I am going to be a father!"
From that day on, Xiao Yi’s care for Song Qian was meticulous. He turned down many unnecessary social engagements, returning home early every day to be with her. He would personally brew nutrient-rich soups for her, only feeling at ease when he watched her finish every drop. He would also accompany her to select adorable baby clothes. In the maternity store, he was like a curious child, picking up tiny garments one by one, imagining how the babies would look wearing them, his face brimming with a blissful smile.
