That afternoon, they gathered for another game of Fight the Landlord. Si Shuo clutched a three in her hand, hopelessly waiting for the round to end.
A sharp pain suddenly shot through her stomach. Caught off guard, Si Shuo cried out, breaking into a cold sweat.
"What's wrong?" The group looked at her nervously.
Si Shuo recovered slightly and activated her Spring Breeze Technique, which made her feel comfortable and relaxed. "I'm fine," she said. "I'm probably about to give birth."
The males had just breathed a sigh of relief when they shot back up. 'What do you mean, you're fine? You're about to have the pups—how is that fine?!'
Yin Jiang came forward, swept her up into his arms, and strode toward his bedroom. Just as he set foot on the stairs, Si Shuo blushed and tugged at his clothes. "Yin Jiang, I... I think I've already given birth."
