391: Chapter 391 Never Stop

He closed the panel and walked out of the Bridge.

In the hallway, Lin Qing was coming out of her room, holding a water glass.

She saw Qin Lin, her footsteps slowed, and the corners of her mouth curled up.

Lin Qing lowered her head and touched her belly: "Finally pregnant."

Qin Lin reached out and placed his hand on the back of hers: "It's good that you're pregnant."

Lin Qing nodded.

Zhou Wan was the third.

She was the quietest one, sitting by the window every day watching the starry sky, rarely speaking.

When Qin Lin went to find her, she would make tea, sit across from him, and listen to him talk about things on The Ark.

One night, Qin Lin came out of the Bridge and saw Zhou Wan standing in the hallway, holding a cup of tea.

"Qin Lin, I have something to tell you." Zhou Wan's voice was very soft.

Qin Lin walked over and stood in front of her: "Go ahead."

Zhou Wan lowered her head: "I see everyone else is pregnant, and I want to be pregnant too. The Ark needs more children, and I want to do something for The Ark."

Qin Lin reached out and held her hand: "You don't have to rush to make a decision."

Zhou Wan looked up at him: "I'm not rushing, I've been thinking about it for a long time."

Qin Lin looked at her, there was light in her eyes.

He nodded: "Okay."

That night, Qin Lin went to Zhou Wan's room.

Zhou Wan was very quiet, just like her personality—never hurried, never slow, never competing, never grabbing.

She wasn't direct like Zhao Shuang, nor gentle like Lin Qing; she just lay there quietly, feeling Qin Lin's hands wandering over her body.

A few days later, the System notification sounded.

[Ding! Congratulations, Host! Passenger Zhou Wan has successfully conceived!]

Qin Lin looked at the words on the panel, an indescribable feeling surging in his heart.

Zhou Wan's child inherited the Starlight talent, just like her habit of watching the stars.

He closed the panel and walked out of the Bridge.

Zhou Wan's room door was open, and she was sitting by the window watching the starry sky. Seeing him enter, she turned her head to look at him.

...

Shen Yue was the fourth.

She was the liveliest of the six, like a dancing flame. Unlike Zhao Shuang, her flame was jumping, cheerful, like a little bird that never stopped.

When she took the initiative to find Qin Lin, it was in the living room, in front of everyone.

"Qin Lin, I want to be pregnant too!"

The women in the living room all looked at her.

Shen Yue didn't feel embarrassed; she continued to look at Qin Lin, her eyes full of anticipation.

Qin Lin felt a bit uncomfortable being watched by her: "Shen Yue, let's talk about this in private."

Shen Yue shook her head: "Why talk in private? It's not something shameful. Every woman on The Ark is pregnant, and I want to be pregnant too!"

Liu Ruyan clapped from the side: "Well said! I like how direct you are!"

Shen Yue glanced at Liu Ruyan, then turned back to look at Qin Lin: "Then come to my room tonight, and you are not allowed to refuse."

Qin Lin looked into her eyes. There was a kind of light in them—not impulse, but seriousness.

He nodded: "Okay."

At night, Qin Lin went to Shen Yue's room.

Shen Yue was wearing that yellow nightdress, her hair tied into two little buns, sitting on the edge of the bed holding a plush bear she had bought from the System Store.

Seeing Qin Lin come in, she threw the plush bear aside: "You're here!"

Qin Lin walked over and sat down beside her: "Are you ready?"

Shen Yue nodded: "I'm ready."

Qin Lin looked at her: "You haven't been on the ship for long."

Shen Yue tilted her head and looked at him: "So what if it hasn't been long? I see Zhao Shuang, Lin Qing, and Zhou Wan are all pregnant, and I want to be pregnant too."

Qin Lin reached out and touched her head: "Then I won't leave tonight."

Shen Yue's eyes lit up: "Okay!"

That night, Qin Lin did not leave Shen Yue's room.

Shen Yue was just like her personality—lively, cheerful, and full of vitality.

She would suddenly laugh out loud in the middle, ask him "Can I get pregnant like this?" while lying on his chest afterwards, and grab his clothes to say "Do it again" when he was ready to sleep.

A few days later, the System notification sounded.

[Ding! Congratulations, Host! Passenger Shen Yue has successfully conceived!]

[Reward: survival points +100000, blessing points +500]

[Current survival points: 2590269, Current blessing points: 36400]

[All passengers' Physique +3%]

[Newborn talent locked as "Streaming Light": speed increased, agile movements, spiritual energy circulation speed increased, reaction speed enhanced.]

Qin Lin looked at the words on the panel, thinking that Shen Yue's child would surely be as lively as her.

He closed the panel and walked out of the Bridge.

Shen Yue was talking to Liu Ruyan in the living room. Seeing him come in, she jumped up and ran over: "I'm pregnant too!"

Qin Lin reached out to steady her: "Be careful, don't jump around just after getting pregnant."

Shen Yue pulled his hand and placed it on her belly: "Touch it, is there something there?"

Qin Lin's palm pressed against her flat lower abdomen. Through the thin loungewear, he could feel her body temperature: "I can't feel it yet, but you are indeed pregnant."

Shen Yue smiled: "That's good, I want to give birth to a child as good-looking as you."

Qin Lin looked at her, feeling she was like a flame that would burn forever, warm and bright.

Bai Lu was the fifth.

She was the gentlest one, just like her name—quiet, soft, like morning dew.

When she came to find Qin Lin, she didn't say it directly, but instead cooked a meal and invited him to eat in her room.

When Qin Lin walked into her room, there were four dishes and one soup on the table, the dishes were exquisite and the aroma was enticing.

"Bai Lu, you can cook?" Qin Lin sat down at the table.

Bai Lu sat down across from him: "When I was in the Sect before, I learned a little from the Senior Sister in the kitchen. Later, when the apocalypse came, I didn't cook anymore. After getting on the ship, I saw that the kitchen had ingredients from the System Store, so I wanted to make some for you to taste."

Qin Lin picked up a piece of food and put it in his mouth. It was delicious, no worse than what Han Qing made: "You did a very good job."

The corners of Bai Lu's mouth curled up: "Then can you promise me one thing?"

Qin Lin put down his chopsticks and looked at her: "Go ahead."

Bai Lu lowered her head to look at her hands: "I want to be pregnant."

Qin Lin looked at her, her face slightly flushed, but her eyes were firm.

He reached out and held her hand: "Bai Lu, you don't have to make a whole table of dishes to tell me this."

Bai Lu looked up at him: "I know, but I didn't know how to bring it up. I was afraid that saying it directly would seem too eager, so I made this table of dishes."

Qin Lin looked at her, there was a kind of light in her eyes—not nervousness, but seriousness: "You don't have to be afraid, you can tell me anytime."

Bai Lu held his hand back: "Then... can you stay tonight?"

Qin Lin nodded: "I can."

Bai Lu was just like her name, like morning dew—clear, transparent, and gentle.

She wouldn't laugh out loud like Shen Yue, nor would she be direct like Zhao Shuang; she just lay quietly in Qin Lin's arms, her fingers gently drawing circles on his chest.

The System notification sounded.
