Chapter 290 Returning Home with the Puppy
The exquisite fruit was carefully placed in a beautiful box wrapped in layers of silk and fur.
Lin Yi's fruit was dull in color and looked less valuable than any of the gems embedded in the box, but anyone could tell that its value was immeasurable.
Lin Yi and Jiang Yu felt as if they were still dreaming. Their stay in the royal city flew by, and in the blink of an eye, they were returning home with the fertility fruits they had received.
When they arrived, no one expected to receive such a benefit. According to the normal procedure, Lin Yi should only be able to receive the fertility fruit during his next vacation.
Lin Yi was kept in the palace at the time. As instructed by the emperor, the highest-ranking minister in charge of the relevant matters gave him a detailed explanation and "training". Jiang Yu was also able to return to the Jiang family and stay for a few days.
My mother remained as optimistic and cheerful as ever, still beautiful and genuine. Therefore, my father didn't tell her Moya's true identity; the entire family believed the same story. My mother's biggest wish recently was to have the opportunity to visit the tribe of the gods in the far north, so she could speak confidently among the noble ladies of the royal city.
Her father had no objection to her choosing to give birth to Lin Yi's child first, but he was a little worried that she was having children too early.
But the mother was extremely unwilling. In her opinion, Lin Yi was the weakest and had no right to have offspring with Jiang Yu, let alone be the first.
Even considering the close relationship between the Jiang and Lin families, she still felt that her daughter was lowering her own status, since there were still two vacant partner positions available.
She was out of touch with current affairs, and Jiang Yu and Jiang Ren knew her personality well, so they wouldn't analyze these complicated relationships with her. Jiang Yu just listened with a smile and didn't take it to heart or offer any further explanation.
She just thought to herself that it was fortunate Lin Yi didn't accompany her back to the Jiang family, otherwise she would have been sad again.
"Don't take it to heart with your mother." The father was also extremely helpless and could only comfort his daughter and express his apology on behalf of his wife: "When you disappeared, Lin Yi was also taking care of the Jiang family's affairs. Your mother didn't worry about these things, but I remembered them. Lin Yi deserves all of this."
"So you're going to eat it?" Jiang Yu found it very strange, after all, this fertility fruit seemed to have its own consciousness. "Then we can... have offspring?"
"It's like a key that merges with my bloodline, temporarily unlocking my reproductive ability. The higher the compatibility with me, the better the offspring will be. But there's no effective way to test compatibility right now. Commoners can only be randomly assigned. For us, it just means we've narrowed down our selection pool," Lin Yi explained.
“Then we can’t force it.” Taking responsibility for one’s own choices and destiny is the most basic thing. “We have already enjoyed extremely rare conveniences,” Jiang Yu sighed.
"Xiaoyu, pregnancy will be very hard." Lin Yi had been worried about this, and as he said this, he took Jiang Yu's hand with some guilt. "I'm really sorry that I won't be able to be by your side often."
"There's really no need for you to be dwelling on this kind of issue right now," Jiang Yu said directly, without any hesitation.
"Such a sentimental statement. If you're really worried, why not give up the opportunity to have children? If all three of you can choose not to have offspring, I think I'll be very relaxed and happy." Jiang Yu rolled her eyes.
They got the candy but still acted innocent.
"Waaah~" When Lin Yi saw his wife like this, he immediately realized that he was not likable. He immediately changed his strategy, burying his head in Jiang Yu's arms with tears in his eyes and rubbing against her.
"I'm not going to say anything anymore, don't bother me~" is just her way of acting cute.
Jiang Yu snorted irritably, then casually ruffled the brilliant blonde hair, the soft, smooth texture making her squint her eyes in pleasure.
Hmm, puppies are still the best to pet.
This way of getting along was obviously enjoyable for both of them. Lin Yi quickly fell asleep during the comfortable head massage, and Jiang Yu's somewhat agitated heart gradually calmed down.
She was constantly frustrated by not being able to see Chen Xin. Turner's attitude was clear: friendly and approachable, but not open to questioning. He showed no sign of backing down and didn't mention Chen Xin at all.
This rendered Jiang Yu's prepared tests completely useless.
Even when she briefly invited Gilbert to meet at the Jiang family home, the palace quickly sent someone to summon Gilbert to the palace.
This was a very firm rejection of her contact with Chen Xin, so Jiang Yu immediately withdrew all her restless thoughts and behaved herself until she left.
But her heart remained restless.
She wasn't worried about Chen Xin's safety. Under Turner's rule, the palace of the Ocean Empire was even more impregnable than during Ryan's time. As Chen Xin was by his side, he would definitely keep a closer eye on her and protect her.
But this brief encounter with Turner made her worry. Turner's abyss-like mind and deliberate control would inevitably make Chen Xin feel isolated and helpless.
When Gilbert mentioned it during their meeting, he looked sorrowful and worried.
Jiang Yu was completely clueless and couldn't help but sigh.
Lin Yi woke up with a start, opened his eyes, and saw Jiang Yu still gently stroking his hair, but looking out the window with a depressed expression. He immediately understood what she was thinking.
He propped himself up with an irresistible speed and quickly kissed Jiang Yu on the lips.
The puppy was very playful. Although it was a fleeting kiss, Jiang Yu could clearly feel her lips being gently licked.
Her worries were like dark clouds in the sky being forcefully blown away by a gust of wind. She looked at Lin Yi, who was smiling broadly, with a mixture of helplessness and affection, and felt her mood instantly improve.
Lin Yi had just woken up, her face still a little sleepy. Jiang Yu had unconsciously ruffled her hair, and her shiny blonde hair was playfully sticking up, making her look beautiful and languid.
Jiang Yu was instantly captivated by her husband's good looks and unconsciously swallowed.
Her appearance naturally caught Lin Yi's eye, pleasing him greatly. Lin Yi flashed a bright smile, glanced casually out the window, and spoke:
"What should we do? We're too high off the ground now."
Before Jiang Yu could even process what he meant, Meng Lang's words came out one after another:
"We've made too much of a commotion; I don't know if it will disrupt the balance of Aurora Pegasus..."
"Oh, if only we had four Aurora Pegasus horses, then I wouldn't have to worry about safety. I've never been in a carriage with Xiaoyu before..."
He leaned forward, pinning Jiang Yu down on the soft couch, his bright, sea-blue eyes brimming with surging passion: "Little Yu, let's do something fun together..."
