I Am the Only Fertile Woman in the Game-Chapter 189: Heartache

"Qiaoqiao!"

Zong Fang cradled her body and saw her hair soaked with sweat; she had grown much thinner than before, immediately turning his eyes red with unspeakable heartache. Especially when he saw her almost being bullied just now, thick murderous intent burst from within him in a flash, shattering the glass along the entire corridor.

"Qiaoqiao..."

Zong Fang held her, sobbing and weeping, stroking Qiao Suisui’s soft cheek, watching her eyes closed as if she were asleep, her long eyelashes like small fans—a place he once couldn’t bear to let go. But now Zong Fang was so panicked that he didn’t dare to call her out loudly, fearing that his voice was too soft to wake her.

"Qiaoqiao... I’m here, will you open your eyes and look at me, please?"

"Qiaoqiao."

"Qiaoqiao..."

Zong Fang’s breathing became erratic; he pressed her close to his chest, his large hand protecting her head, his eyes full of panic, murmuring to himself, "It can’t be, it can’t be..."

"Talk to me."

"Qiaoqiao, I arrived late, you must be angry, right? You get up and hit me, okay..."

"Don’t... It can’t be..."

Zong Fang felt utterly helpless, holding Qiao Suisui and repeating ’It can’t be’ over and over.

He looked to the baby carriage at several cobra eggs, some of which had already cracked, and a few snake cubs struggling to break free from their shells.

Zong Fang’s eyes were filled with regret, his heart filled with mixed feelings, his throat as if clogged with lead, choking him so he couldn’t speak. Guilt and bitter resentment intertwined within him, hating himself for his powerlessness. Holding the person in his arms, he sobbed uncontrollably.

"Don’t leave me, I beg you not to leave me..."

"I don’t want any of this, I just want you..."

"Don’t leave me... Qiaoqiao... I was wrong, I truly was wrong..."

Qiao Suisui really wanted to sleep well, but someone kept calling her name in her ear, annoying her slightly. She wanted to raise her hand but ended up only moving her fingers.

"Tired, want to... sleep..."

Her voice was so faint it was almost inaudible, but Zong Fang immediately stopped making noise, trembling as he touched her face, staring at her unblinkingly with his tear-reddened eyes.

Concern led to chaos, and he had even forgotten to check her breathing and pulse just now.

Zong Fang carried her to the bed, struggling to control his emotions. His fingertips were still trembling, but he didn’t dare to relax as he checked her body. He then discovered that there were still three cobra eggs inside her that hadn’t been born, causing his heart to miss a beat.

He bowed his head to gently stroke her hair, took out Nutrient Liquid from the space to replenish physical strength, and fed it to her mouthful by mouthful.

"Qiaoqiao, don’t sleep."

"I’m sorry, it’s all my fault you’re in so much pain, so tired, I’m a bastard. Will you open your eyes and look at me, please?"

"Qiaoqiao... I promise you anything, just open your eyes, be good..."

After a short rest and the replenishment from the Nutrient Liquid, Qiao Suisui regained a bit of strength. She forced herself to wake up and saw Zong Fang’s anxious eyes and said weakly, "Zong Fang... why are your eyes red?"

Zong Fang, seeing that she had finally woken up, burst into tears of joy, kissing her incessantly, his heart that was hanging by a thread finally settling down with a sense of having regained what was lost.

"I’m sorry, I was wrong, it was all my fault... Darling, let’s not have any more children, okay?"

Qiao Suisui was reminded by him that she was still in the process of giving birth; after all, she had now blocked out the pain, only feeling exhausted but not the pain. Now, as Zong Fang mentioned it, she felt that dragging sensation come over her again.

Unconsciously clenching her fist, Zong Fang immediately noticed her condition, tightly holding her hand, letting her squeeze his own when she needed to exert force.

Zong Fang knelt by her bed, kissing and comforting her while helping her deliver.

He was very dissatisfied with the birthing environment, but he didn’t want to distract her by moving her, so he did his best to relax her and have her breathe in sync with him.

Qiao Suisui focused on giving birth and finally delivered the last three snake cubs half an hour later.

"Congratulations to the host for giving birth to the twenty-eighth progeny. Beast Form: cobra, Gender: male, Gene: excellent, Spiritual Power: A-grade, Talent: not yet obtained. Points awarded: 100, item: Forget Potion."

"Congratulations to the host for giving birth to the twenty-ninth progeny. Beast Form: cobra, Gender: male, Gene: excellent, Spiritual Power: A-grade, Talent: not yet obtained. Item: Time Retrospect."

"Congratulations to the host for giving birth to the thirtieth progeny. Beast Form: King Cobra, Gender: female, Gene: excellent, Spiritual Power: SSS-grade, Talent: not yet obtained. Points awarded: 100, with an extra reward of 100 points for an S-grade Spiritual Power, item: Spiritual Power Ore *20."

This time, she gave birth to eleven snake cubs in total, six males and five females, all with excellent genes. Among them was a Black Mamba Snake with a gene mutation at the SSS level and two others also at the SSS level; the System awarded an extra 300 points. Moreover, this litter was mostly S-grade cubs, with only a few at the lowest being A-grade.

Qiao Suisui used up all the enhancing rewards, and the System had already provided a one-click recovery and cleansing for her body. Although the effect of the Beauty Enhancement Pill was now minimal for her, she still took one and, sure enough, the pallor she had developed due to malnutrition vanished in the blink of an eye. At this moment, Qiao Suisui was radiant with delicate skin and fine bones, her demeanor greatly changed from before, having lost some of her girlishness and gained more of a woman’s charm, rendering her stunningly beautiful. Only her eyes now appeared vacant with fatigue.

Zong Fang settled all the snake eggs in the space, then turned back to find her lying on the bed, daydreaming, with her hand seemingly unconsciously gripping the Wolf Teeth around her neck.

He walked up and embraced her tightly in his arms, as if he had found a treasure that he had sought for many years and had now reclaimed.

"I’m sorry."

Qiao Suisui came back to her senses and said, "It seems like you’ve said ’I’m sorry’ a lot since a while ago."

Zong Fang loosened his hold on her slightly, tenderly brushing her forehead with his fingers, his eyes full of remorse. "I’m sorry for wronging you. Can I spend a lifetime making it up to you?"

Qiao Suisui gave a faint smile. Though her physical strength had totally recovered, her spirit had not. She rested her head softly on Zong Fang’s shoulder, wrapping her arms around the man’s broad shoulders, as if she had found a safe harbor.

"Alright, then your lifetime belongs to me."

Resting her head on Zong Fang’s shoulder and gazing outside, she daydreamed while Zong Fang, sensing her preoccupation, stroked her hair and said, "You’re worried about him, aren’t you?"

Qiao Suisui lowered her eyes, and the next second, tears instantly welled up.

Zong Fang supported her shoulders and kissed the corners of her eyes, speaking softly, "I’ll go find him, and I’ll make sure he comes to see you, well and good."

Qiao Suisui looked at Zong Fang in surprise, still with tears pooling in her eyes.

"You don’t mind anymore?"

"I do mind."

Zong Fang kissed her fingers, his eyes holding a sorrow and relief that she found hard to understand.

Sharing her love with someone else was like being dismembered by him, one slice at a time.

But now, Zong Fang would rather endure this pain to fulfill her every desire.

He owed her too much.

"But what I fear the most is seeing you upset."

Zong Fang’s thumb gently caressed her cheek as he smiled tenderly at her.

Qiao Suisui held his hand back, her eyes regaining a bit of sparkle.

"It seemed they were hurt pretty badly. I’m worried something happened to him; I don’t know where they took him..."

As her voice fell, a rush of footsteps came from outside the door.

Leberli was the first to push the door open and enter. Seeing Qiao Suisui sitting on the bed, he quickly walked over and hugged her tightly.

Sang Yan followed behind and, upon seeing her safe and sound, visibly let out a huge sigh of relief.

Qiao Suisui was thoroughly checked from head to toe by Leberli, with Sang Yan also nervously watching by her side. After she assured them once again that she was fine, she looked out the door and asked, "Where’s Ruka?"
