81: The witch was about to give birth
Chu Feng was as happy as a child, hugging her, kissing and rubbing against her. Then he carefully picked her up, gently placed her back on the couch, and covered her with a brocade quilt. His doting manner completely broke through a crack in Rain Tenderness's icy heart.
"This is great! Rain Tenderness, this is great!" Chu Feng sat by the couch, holding her hand, his eyes filled with undisguised joy and love.
Because her pregnancy was confirmed, Chu Feng became even more doting towards Rain Tenderness. The frequency of his daily visits increased instead of decreased, and the time he spent with her also grew longer.
Aside from necessary 'intimacy,' he mostly talked with her, used his pure chaos qi to warm her body and the fetus in her womb, and brought various Spirit Medicine and delicacies for safe pregnancy and replenishment.
Rain Tenderness could clearly feel his Pay attention to for this child, and his increasingly deep love and responsibility towards her.
The ice in her heart finally melted completely under this daily onslaught of warmth. Although she still occasionally called him 'bastard,' her eyes now held more reliance and tenderness, and occasionally she would even respond to his kisses, finding a safe haven in his embrace... Time continued to flow.
Early this morning, Chu Feng, as usual, was preparing to leave the Yu Clan and return to Stone Village. Just as he greeted Willow Deity in his Sea of Consciousness and was about to set off, Willow Deity's gentle but somewhat helpless voice directly sounded in his mind:
"Wait."
Chu Feng paused: "Willow Deity? What is it?"
"The Demoness is about to give birth. As a father, where are you going at this moment?" Willow Deity's voice showed no emotion, but Chu Feng inexplicably felt a pang of guilt, as if he had been 'caught.'
"The Demoness is going to give birth?!" Chu Feng was first stunned, then a huge surprise surged into his heart! His first child! Although Fire Spirit and Qin Yining were also pregnant, the Demoness was the first one to be due!
"Really?! I'm going back right now!" Chu Feng no longer had any thoughts of going elsewhere. He immediately changed direction, fully activating his spatial power, and almost instantly returned to Stone Village, rushing into the Chaos Space where Willow Deity resided, and heading straight for the Demoness's room.
"Demoness! Are you going to give birth?" Chu Feng pushed open the door, looking eagerly and excitedly at the couch.
The Demoness was leaning against soft cushions, wearing only a thin silk nightgown. Her rounded, protruding belly stretched the dress into a breathtaking curve. Seeing Chu Feng enter, her charming peach blossom eyes glanced at him, with a hint of coquetry.
"You finally remembered I'm about to give birth, huh? What, not going to see your 'Rain Tenderness' lover today?" The Demoness's voice was languid, with a hint of jealousy, but more of the joy of becoming a mother and a touch of pre-labor nervousness. She naturally knew about Chu Feng going to see Rain Tenderness, and Chu Feng had never hidden it.
Chu Feng quickly walked to the bed and sat down, holding the Demoness's hand. Looking at her face, which was even more plump and beautiful due to pregnancy, his eyes were full of love and anticipation: "Didn't I come back? After you give birth, I'll stay with you for a few days and won't go anywhere."
"That's more like it." The Demoness smiled, turned her hand to hold his, and placed it on her bulging belly. "The baby seems to know Daddy is back; it's moving so actively."
Chu Feng carefully stroked it, feeling the powerful fetal movement beneath his palm. An unprecedented, wonderful sense of emotion and responsibility surged within him.
"You have us, yet you run off every day to find others. You're truly despicable." A coquettish voice sounded as Fire Spirit pushed open the door and walked in.
She had also changed into a loose, red, sheer long dress, and her abdomen was already slightly bulging, showing clear signs of pregnancy. Seeing Chu Feng, she immediately pouted, looking as if she was about to demand an explanation, but the longing in her eyes and her joy at seeing him could not be hidden.
"Did you secretly run back to Fire Country to see your Imperial Father and Mother again?" Chu Feng smiled at Fire Spirit, reaching out to pull her to sit beside him. "Did you take a lot of good things from the 'pocket money' I gave you to show filial piety?"
After Chu Feng brought Fire Spirit into the Chat Group, he also gave her many points and resources for her to freely use.
"N-no, I didn't!" Fire Spirit's secret was revealed, her face flushed, and she turned her head away, denying it in a low voice.
In the days after their marriage, Chu Feng's persistent coaxing, meticulous care, and the trust and intimacy brought by sharing the Chat Group's secrets had long since completely captivated Fire Spirit's proud yet innocent maiden heart.
Now she was willingly Chu Feng's little Beloved Wife, though she would occasionally throw a small tantrum to add some spice to their relationship.
"Just take them, they're all family possessions anyway." Chu Feng ruffled her hair, dotingly saying, "But, what you take, you'll eventually have to 'repay' me. Give me a few more chubby babies in the future, and that will be compensation."
Hearing these explicit words of love, Fire Spirit's cheeks instantly flushed crimson, and she glared at him in annoyance: "No way! At most... at most three! No more than that!" Her voice grew softer and softer, almost inaudible at the end, but her blushing, shy demeanor had already betrayed her true feelings.
In the months they spent together, she deeply felt Chu Feng's pet and respect for her.
Not only was Chu Feng powerful, providing her with the best Cultivation resources and guidance—using the Chat Group and his own experience to let her Cultivation advance by leaps and bounds to the Heavenly God Realm in just a few months.
If it weren't for her intentional suppression due to pregnancy, she might have already reached the Void Dao Realm. Moreover, in life, he was considerate and meticulous, respecting her wishes and allowing her to often return home to visit her parents.
How could she not love such a husband? Bearing children for him was already a natural, even sweetly anticipated, matter in her heart.
"You're here too." A gentle voice came as Qin Yining slowly walked in, supported by Willow Deity.
Her belly was larger than Fire Spirit's, and her pregnancy was more obvious. After becoming pregnant, her temperament became even more gentle like water, exuding a rich, undeniable maternal glow. Every gesture and smile held a captivating charm belonging to a mature married woman.
Her body, too, had become more voluptuous and alluring under Chu Feng's 'careful nourishment,' with breathtaking curves.
Willow Deity carefully helped her sit by the bed, then sat down herself between Qin Yining and Fire Spirit, quietly accompanying them.
Qin Yining smiled and offered blessings to the Demoness on the couch, congratulating her on the upcoming new life.
The Demoness thanked her with a grin, then turned her gaze to Chu Feng, her eyes sparkling with cunning:
"I say, I'm almost due, shouldn't you, as the father, show some appreciation?"
Chu Feng lowered his head and gave the Demoness a loud kiss on her smooth cheek: "Is this enough of a gesture?"
"Oh, I didn't mean for you to kiss me!" The Demoness giggled and pushed him away, pointing to her highly swollen belly, her eyes full of anticipation. "I'm talking about the baby! Have you thought of a name? You can't just pick one casually."
Chu Feng became serious, clearly well-prepared:
"I have. If it's a girl, she'll be called Chu Chan, taking the beauty of 'Chan Juan,' meaning our daughter will be as bright and beautiful as the moon. I also hope she will be as pure and ethereal as a Moon Palace Fairy in the future, with deep blessings. If it's a boy, he'll be called Chu Fan."
He paused, explaining: "The character 'Fan' does not mean ordinary. Instead, it embodies the ambition of 'transcending the ordinary to become a saint' and 'returning to simplicity.' I hope our son can be down-to-earth, neither arrogant nor impatient, witnessing the extraordinary in the ordinary, ultimately breaking through the mortal world and achieving the supreme Dao. This name, seemingly common, actually contains my highest expectations for him."
After listening, the Demoness, though she grumbled:
"Chu Fan? Sounds so ordinary..." But her peach blossom eyes, curved like crescent moons, and the uncontrollable smile on her face had already betrayed her inner satisfaction and sweetness.
Qin Yining, Fire Spirit, and Willow Deity could all see her fondness for these two names.
Seeing her delight, Chu Feng couldn't help but lean down and kiss her face several more times, making the Demoness giggle. The room was filled with a warm and joyful atmosphere.
