The live broadcast was destined to be chaotic from the start.
With that earth-shattering kiss, Ling Qianhe caused the entire live stream to be flooded with red, leaving everyone stunned and unable to react.
Once they realized it wasn't fake, that it was truly real.
The viewers in the live stream went wild, flooding the chat with an dazzling array of gifts.
Lin Mucí was a little flustered. Ling Qianhe glanced at the live stream, then pointed at Lin Mucí.
"My wife."
Then he pointed at her belly again.
"My cub."
The live stream momentarily crashed due to the sheer volume of viewers who had flooded in.
It was no longer possible to continue the broadcast. Fans watched, wide-eyed, at the screen full of red, still finding it unbelievable, like a fairy tale.
Their minds buzzed with Ling Qianhe's words, "My cub and my wife."
Was he...
Making an official announcement?
But he was too...
Did he not care about his career anymore?
However, with his current status, he was practically unshakeable in the entertainment industry. He truly didn't need to rely on fans anymore.
With the live stream down, fans couldn't log back in, stomping their feet in frustration and regret.
Why couldn't they—
See a little more!
The fans were truly curious and desperate to know what other earth-shattering displays of affection Ling Qianhe would reveal!
...
Lin Mucí took a deep breath. She had actually intended to get angry.
But the man standing before her gradually regained clarity in his eyes.
He glanced at Lin Mucí.
With just that one look.
That familiar feeling instantly returned!
Lin Mucí blinked slightly, her pupils narrowing as she gazed into Ling Qianhe's eyes. Then, Lin Mucí spoke to him.
"You're awake?"
The man opposite her hummed in acknowledgment and said,
"Did I hurt you?"
"Wait a moment, let me recall my previous memories."
About three seconds later, he chuckled lightly and said,
"Sister Mu Ci... that address truly brings back memories. This world is very similar to our previous entertainment world, no wonder I awakened so quickly. It seems the main system did suppress the mother nest to a certain extent, otherwise, it wouldn't have given us such great convenience."
Hearing him mention the main system and the mother nest,
Lin Mucí knew he had completely awakened.
She immediately breathed a sigh of relief!
"What do we do next?"
Ling Qianhe looked at her and then said something that caught her completely off guard.
What he said even made Lin Mucí very astonished.
Lin Mucí heard him say,
"Wait for the child in your belly to be born."
"The mother nest will lose."
Lin Mucí's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Wait for the child in my belly to be born—and the mother nest will lose?"
"Are you serious? How is that possible?"
Her first reaction was that it was absolutely impossible, but to her surprise, Ling Qianhe nodded, his tone extremely casual.
"Of course, I'm serious."
"When the child in your belly is born, it means we have gained the initiative in this world."
"Because the child in your belly is a new life that does not belong to this world—destined to grow to the height of a world ruler in the future."
"The mother nest's power comes from its control over the world."
"As long as our child is born, it will break the mother nest's monopoly on this world, and we will naturally win."
What Ling Qianhe told Lin Mucí,
Made Lin Mucí's expression even stranger. And Ling Qianhe said—he said her child was a new life that didn't belong to this world...
Wait, what did that mean?
"Our child?"
"Are you saying... this child..."
"Was brought into this world by me?"
"Before we descended into this small world, this child... was already... already in my belly, is that... what you mean?"
Ling Qianhe, rarely seeing her completely stunned like this, chuckled softly, his voice extremely gentle.
"Of course."
"Have you forgotten? In the interstellar, your identity is a female beast with extremely strong gestation abilities."
"Our baby has been in your belly for a long time, it's just that you, a muddled mother, haven't discovered it yet."
"When we entered this small world, he followed us!"
"Actually, this world was originally quite difficult. After all, my consciousness was suppressed to a great extent, making it very difficult to awaken... We were likely facing a situation where we would never see each other again."
"But because you brought the baby."
"The dire situation became easy, as if a sharp knife cutting through bamboo."
Ling Qianhe stretched lazily.
"So, this world might feel like a vacation to us."
"As long as I protect you, we just need to wait for our baby to be born."
"Instead, the pressure in the interstellar world will probably be immense..."
"I wonder if Lan Po can draw the blueprints in time for the factories in Iron City to produce enough divine mechs."
"But that's their concern. As long as we succeed before humanity is utterly defeated, humanity's crisis will be resolved."
Lin Mucí's mind was still buzzing.
She had never imagined.
Such a huge crisis.
Could be resolved so easily because of the little cub in her belly.
She reached out and touched her belly. It hadn't started to show yet.
But for some reason, ever since she knew she had a little cub in her belly, that feeling instantly became different.
Her hand slowly stroked her abdomen, her lower belly warm, and a warmth spread deep within her heart.
She murmured,
"You've finally made a great contribution..."
This unborn child might not even realize that he was unknowingly about to save the entire world!
...
Seven months later.
Outside the hospital, cameras for the live broadcast had been set up. Paparazzi were dutifully staking out the hospital entrance, awaiting the birth of the film emperor's first child.
"He truly loves her so much... For her, he's practically semi-retired..."
"I heard they've been encountered traveling the world together..."
"Wuwuwu, Qianhe will definitely be a good father!"
The drama series where he played the male lead had finished filming and was currently being broadcast, attracting a large number of CP fans! Because the plot was rumored to be very angsty and a male-lead-centric drama, fans had initially been worried.
They were worried someone would scold Ling Qianhe for being cold-hearted and ruthless.
But when the drama aired.
Everyone was shocked.
This was hardly a decisive, ruthless male lead.
This was clearly a male lead who was completely obsessed with love!
And he was the type who, after the female lead got into trouble, completely lost the will to live—a peerless love-struck fool!
Late-stage love-struck fool, willing to give up his empire for beauty—only to have his rival meet misfortune, forcing him to become the world's richest man, standing at an unassailable height.
However, he remained unmarried his entire life, devoted to the female lead.
He lived a solitary life, growing old and lonely before the female lead's tombstone!
This deep, devoted persona had earned countless audience tears.
And it made the audience even more curious about the film emperor's choice in real life.
So, was he also a love-struck fool in reality?
Did he like the celebrity Lin Mucí that much?
Would their baby be a boy or a girl?
The live stream was buzzing, and "Live Birth Stream" trended on the hot search!
