Li Chenmo nodded and replied, "Wife, I think it’s better for you to drink the spiritual herb powder mixed in water from now on. It will soothe your morning sickness and help with your fatigue."
After considering it for a moment, Lu Jueyu agreed, "Okay."
Although the lake water in her space had similar effects with the spiritual herbs powder, for some reason, it didn’t seem to work on her. She had thought about it but couldn’t figure out the reason, so she stopped worrying about it.
Unbeknownst to them, as soon as she drank the milk with the spiritual herb powder, the spiritual energy within was absorbed by the embryo, calming its agitation. As the embryo settled, Lu Jueyu’s discomfort disappeared.
At that moment, something unexpected happened—her single embryo suddenly split into three. The three tiny lives huddled together inside a membrane surrounded by a soft red glow, slowly absorbing the energy from the surrounding.
Meanwhile, Lu Jueyu suddenly felt famished. Just moments ago, she had been nearly full, but now her stomach rumbled with hunger.
Hearing the sound, Li Chenmo chuckled and said, "Wife, don’t worry about your weight. If you are still hungry, just eat more."
After he said those words, he turned to get another bowl of pumpkin soup and a plate of chicken salad sandwiches, but as he moved, his brows furrowed deeply.
Just a second ago, he had distinctly felt something shift inside his wife’s belly. The connection he felt toward the baby was eerily similar to what he had once felt toward the mysterious cocoon.
Not only that, but the connection he sensed wasn’t singular. There was a distinct tugging, as if… there was more than one baby. A wild thought flashed through his mind suddenly.
Could the cocoon have entered his wife’s belly and become their baby?
Was that why he could never find it again?
His eyes widened in surprise the moment he reached this conclusion, and his furrowed brows smoothed out.
Both of their families had a history of twins, so it was entirely possible for them to have a pair of twins or even a triplets. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
Excitement filled his heart, making his hands tremble slightly. But once the initial joy passed, worries and anxiety set in. People often said childbirth was like stepping into the gates of death.
If giving birth to one child was already dangerous, wouldn’t giving birth to three be even riskier?
While he was worrying about his wife’s safety during childbirth, Lu Jueyu had already finished her croissants and was waiting for the rest of her food.
Seeing her husband standing near the counter unmoving, she called out, "Husband, where’s my food?"
Li Chenmo snapped out of his thoughts when he heard his wife’s voice. He quickly brought the food over and said, "Wife, if you ever crave something, just tell me, okay?"
"Husband, I want pickled peaches and some candied kumquats," Lu Jueyu said after taking another spoonful of soup.
