"Eat slowly, there's more if you want it," Guo Xuyang said, watching Wang Qi devour the food ravenously.
"It's been such a long time since I've eaten such delicious food."
Wang Qi chewed with gusto, her eyes regaining their sparkle, and her body visibly filling out.
Guo Xuyang hadn't expected the raw venison to be even more nutritious than cooked.
His thought had initially been just a guess in his mind.
However, what he saw before him forced him to take it seriously.
"Hey, where are you?" Guo Xuyang dialed Gao Lihua's number.
"At the hotel, learning hotel management with Director Lin and the others," Gao Lihua's voice came through.
"How have you been feeling these past few days?"
"Feeling? Nothing much, just miss you a bit." Gao Lihua's voice suddenly lowered.
"It's only been a few days! What about when more time passes?" Guo Xuyang said with a smile. "Any reaction from your stomach?"
"No reaction, just feel like I'm eating more. But no movement in my stomach."
"It's good you can eat well. Being able to eat is a blessing. If you feel unwell at any time, call me immediately. You study well with them."
Guo Xuyang hung up the phone.
"Who was that?" Lin Ziqi asked, looking at her curiously.
"Brother Yang. He asked if my stomach was feeling anything?"
Gao Lihua glanced at Li Si, then at Lin Ziqi and said.
"That scumbag actually cares about you. Didn't he ask about me and Qiqi?" Li Si said.
"He asked one question and hung up." Gao Lihua really didn't know how to answer that.
"Are you pregnant?" Li Si asked, looking at her stomach.
"No reaction. I just feel like I can eat a lot these past few days."
"I don't feel anything either. He really thinks he's a star player, capable of sowing seeds in any soil," Li Si scoffed.
Guo Xuyang, of course, was unaware of Li Si's opinions behind his back. He was already lost in thought, realizing this was highly abnormal.
With Da Bao, it was a special circumstance because Elena was also a person with supernatural abilities.
Furthermore, Elena's physical condition was exceptional, so Da Bao being a freak wasn't surprising.
However, Wang Qi had no special qualities, yet the child she was carrying was even more extraordinary than Da Bao.
If the situation continued like this, the child might be born before seven months.
What exactly went wrong?
Was it related to this place? Or the estate? Or perhaps the place where they had planted crops last time?
"Yangzi, is there any more? I feel only half full," Wang Qi's call interrupted his thoughts.
"Eating too much will cause internal heat," Guo Xuyang said.
"This meat is too delicious, I'm not even half full yet. Give me another piece," Wang Qi said, sucking on her finger.
"Wait a moment, I'll get you another piece." Guo Xuyang couldn't stand Wang Qi's gesture and quickly turned to leave.
He felt that the current Wang Qi was a stranger, as if possessed by something.
However, he didn't dare to use his senses, because he could clearly feel that the little one in her belly could see him.
"Yangzi, what's wrong with Qiqi? Why is she eating raw meat?"
"I haven't figured that out yet. We'll talk about it when we get back. I have to go over there again.
Wu Jia will be back soon, eat without me, and don't let them go to Wang Qi's place.
No matter what happens there, don't go over." Guo Xuyang instructed.
"Is it dangerous? You shouldn't go."
"It's fine. I'm afraid of scaring you. Once I figure out the reason, it will be easier to handle."
As Guo Xuyang spoke, he took out another piece of venison from his spatial storage and pushed open Wang Qi's door.
"Hurry and give it to me, I'm hungry." Wang Qi reached out for it as soon as she saw Guo Xuyang approach.
"Can you tell me what's been happening lately?"
"What? Nothing has happened."
"Really nothing?"
"No. Fangfang, Jiajia, Xiaoyu, and I have been shopping, helping with the renovation of the building upstairs, or tutoring Xiaoyu. Nothing else."
"Think carefully."
"Really nothing. Give it to me first, and I'll think about it slowly after I've eaten my fill."
Wang Qi refused to say anything more.
Unable to do anything, Guo Xuyang had to hand the meat to Wang Qi again.
This time, Wang Qi ate much more slowly than before, no longer gobbling it down.
However, she was more meticulous, unwilling to waste even a drop of deer blood.
In the end, she licked her fingers clean of bloodstains.
"Ah Ma, I've finally had a full meal. I was starving during this time."
Wang Qi said, lying down on the bed without any pretense.
"Now that you've eaten, can you talk to me properly?"
"Talk about what? Go ahead."
"When did you stop being able to eat?"
"I haven't been able to eat properly since Sister Yu left."
"You mean you haven't eaten much since she gave birth?"
"More or less. I ate, but never enough."
"Do you know what's going on with your stomach?"
"I don't know. I thought I was starving. My stomach just got bigger, and my limbs got thinner from hunger."
"Any other feelings?"
"No energy, just want to sleep, and I'm always dreaming."
"Dreaming? What kind of dreams?"
"All sorts of random dreams. World wars, court intrigues, who knows where these jumbled things come from."
"Then you should sleep. We'll talk again when we get back," Guo Xuyang said, then closed the door and went out.
