It was early in the morning.

Pale golden sunlight was streaming through the window. They should have been obscured by the white curtains, but the warm wind lifted the curtains through the cracks, and the sunlight jumped onto the bed. The sun also comes with the fresh aroma of plants and earth – it smelled extra fresh because it rained lightly last night.

Li Zhen was woken up by the sun, and his eyelids hadn't opened yet, so his sight was a warm pale red. He moved his body slightly, and the warmth on the futon and the warmth of the body beside him became more and more distinct. He reached out and groped to his side, hearing a muffled murmur.

It was reassuring to him. Nothing is a dream, it's real.

So he raised his hand to block out the sun and opened his eyes.

Zhang Kesong's shoulders were also plated by the sun, but the other exposed parts were white and silky, like the skin of a newborn baby. This kind of whiteness is difficult to appear on the body of a yellow person, and in Li Zhen's impression, she did not have such a skin color before. But now she does, and there are more changes that make Li Zhen feel a little different when they first met.

For example, you can't see pores on her body - that doesn't mean they don't exist anymore, they just become tiny. She has grown slightly taller, which makes her current temperament closer to the previous Ye Zhixing. Subtle changes such as these appear on the same person's body, making her look like a completely different person.

Even now, that strangeness hasn't completely faded. But this is the real world, and this woman sleeps beside him. He looked sideways and saw Zhang Kesong's slightly undulating chest and occasional trembling eyelashes. Her breathing was soft, long. It's like hibernating.

Li Zhen couldn't help but dust the tip of her nose and gently stroked the pale red bruises on her neck.

It was the twenty-fourth day they had slept in the same bed.

This touch did not wake up the beauty next to the pillow, so Li Zhen propped herself up and uncovered the thin quilt covering her. Warm, moist lips pressed against her straight collarbone and crept downward, poking out her tongue as she skimmed over the softly lined peaks. The liquid quickly cooled in the air and extended to her snow-white flat abdomen.

With a slight groan, two jade-like arms reached over and pressed his head to stop him from descending further.

"Don't make a fuss." Zhang Kesong said lazily and gently. Her arm strained slightly, and Li Zhen leaned in front of her.

In front of him was his face in a pair of clear eyes. Zhang Kesong stared at him like this for a long time before he said in a low voice: "It's like a dream." ”

Li Zhen smiled and kissed her petal-like lips after sleeping. But he was dodged.

Zhang Kesong pressed a hot palm against his chest. Look at him and whisper, "Seriously." You remember I told you yesterday that today I have to tell you what the hell is wrong with me. ”

Li Zhen frowned: "Do you have to do it now?" We can delay it by an hour. ”

Ke Song laughed: "After listening to me, you will make a decision." ”

"Well, it looks like a big deal." Li Zhen lay down sideways again and took her in his arms.

Zhang Kesong raised his head in his arms. I looked at him with sparkling eyes for a moment. He whispered, "Yesterday the doctor gave me a physical examination. There's something amazing in me – they're changing my body. Exactly. This change began five years ago...... It's just become more and more obvious lately. ”

Li Zhen frowned slightly and said "um" lightly.

Then he opened his eyes wide and let out another "ah" in surprise.

"That's what you think." Zhang Kesong smiled.

Five years ago...... Li Zhen certainly remembers that night five years ago. Also in the Philippines, also in Zamboanga. It was the first most intimate contact between them.

However......

"You didn't notice it before?" He asked, confused.

"It's not because of the doctor's negligence. It's been quite slow before. Do you remember when you came to Nandu? Zhang Kesong rubbed his chest with his hand, "You came back a month ago...... Significant changes began almost then. ”

Li Zhen frowned: "You mean...... It's because I came near you, so those ...... Those...... Just starting to react? Active? Just like my blood can save people, they start to change your physique? They...... Have survived until now? ”

"Yes. And I believe that such a change is just a manifestation of one thing. Zhang Kesong raised his eyes, looked directly at Li Zhen, and said softly, "I'm pregnant." About thirty days. ”

Li Zhen spent two seconds looking at Zhang Kesong. Then he laughed, "Hah." ”

But Kesong didn't speak, just looked at him.

So Li Zhen's eyes widened.

"Thirty days ......," he said, looking at Zhang Kesong with extremely complicated eyes, "You mean thirty days...... No, how can you check it out in 30 days? No, no, no, how is it thirty days?? ”

He didn't say the rest of the sentence - what he wanted to say was ...... Six days before these twenty-four days?!

But Zhang Kesong pinched a bulge on his chest with thin fingers and looked at him with a warning look. The look cleared his mind for a moment, and at the same time he was glad that he didn't say the word, and even more glad that he was glad that the look itself was.

So he tugged at the corners of his mouth: "Hmm...... You know I didn't mean that, so that means ......"

When it comes to lying, a man's head always spins fast. So he smoothly picked up the next sentence: "That is...... They...... Because I'm here, I'm active again?! ”

"That's what my doctor said." Kozon was still staring into his eyes.

Li Zhen was silent again under her gaze. In fact, this silence is not because of the incredibleness and "irrationality" of the incident itself. For an existence like him, there seems to be no "common sense" anymore. He had long accepted all kinds of "miracles" and even "miracles" that happened to him, but this matter was ......

This incident struck his mind like a gentle and swift thunderbolt, causing him to abandon any inferences and cognitions about reason and common sense at this moment, and after a few seconds, he moved his gaze to Zhang Kesong's lower abdomen, and only said in a daze: "You mean...... You're pregnant. ”

"You mean...... We have a child, now? Right here? ”

Zhang Kesong looked at him and nodded.

So Li Zhen stretched out a hand. Not caressing like in passion, but gently on the snow-white and slippery belly, stopping there, not speaking for a long time.

Zhang Kesong pursed his lips and whispered, "You...... Don't like it? ”

"Nope." Li Zhen retracted his hand and sat up on the bed. In just over 20 years, he seems to have experienced many unimaginable challenges, and at this moment, he feels that the challenge has come again.

And it's a challenge that can't be solved with a single passion.

"I ......," he said hesitantly, frowning slightly, "my God, I don't know what Lu Dao thinks." ”

He was certainly willing to trust the person next to his pillow unconditionally. But it was precisely like this, after he got rid of that dizzy sense of surprise and a slight joy, a terrible worry arose in his heart.

Li Zhen clearly knew how terrifyingly aggressive a part of his body, even if it included those liquids. Unfortunately, he realized it too late, and on that night five years ago, he was not actually a human being in the true sense of the word—both physical and mental.

He realized a shocking and somewhat terrifying fact—the lifeforms that ejected from his body had survived in Zhang Kesong's body until now. He guessed that they might have been dormant in the past, but now they felt the presence of the subject and were alive again.

Get active......

and successfully conceived.

Zhang Kesong noticed his face, but he didn't know what he was thinking about. Therefore, she could only purse her lips, prop herself up with one arm, and ask, "You...... What's wrong? ”

"Is there anything out of the ordinary? I mean......" Li Zhen frowned, "deformed, or ......"

"It's just that it's growing very fast, and there's nothing abnormal for the time being." Zhang Kesong smiled because of his words, "So are you worried about this?" Are you worried that our children will be a ...... A baby who doesn't look like a human? Like wings? ”

Li Zhen grabbed her shoulders and looked at her seriously: "Ke Song." If you get pregnant again after five years and ...... Thirty days is growing so fast, then I'm worried. Now that I'm barely human, I don't know what to say about it-"

"I don't know if it will have any bad effects on you."

Li Zhen looked directly into Zhang Kesong's eyes, wanting to see even the slightest hint of fear in them. He wanted to see that look, but he was a little afraid to see it. However, he did try to calm his eyes, because what he said was only part of the truth.

Because he knew what he had been like—after being blown apart five years ago, when he reunited into human form, he knew exactly what a terrible process he had gone through.

It's not as simple as flesh from bones, it's ......

Experience a complete evolution from a single-celled creature to the highest apex predator!

But Zhang Kesong smiled.

"You're worried about this." She whispered, pinching Li Zhen's face with her hand, "That's our child." All I know is that now he's making me better and better. ”

Li Zhen still wanted to speak, but Zhang Kesong put his finger against his lips. So he saw something in her eyes—

She knew what he was going to say.

He silently embraced her into his arms and said, "Then I will look at him." Once—I mean once, you have to listen to me. ”

"Hmm." (To be continued......)
