Chapter 441: Chapter 440: Can’t Hide the Belly Anymore

```

The items that Si Yuting transferred to her could also be considered hers, as he had told her she could dispose of them at will.

She might not know how to manage them, but she wouldn’t lose out by cooperating with Lin Yumo.

"However, my Light Brain is broken, I’ll have the butler send it to you later."

Lin Yumo didn’t respond to Qu Tong, as if something had occurred to him, he stared at the wooden carving in his hand, lost in thought.

Qu Tong shook her head and hung up the video call.

The woes of life and death are countless, yet unrequited love is incurable.

Let alone separated by thousands of years of time and space.

Putting aside the matters concerning Lin Yumo, she turned her attention back to analyzing the situation.

Si Yuting probably didn’t want her to worry, so he hadn’t told her about the pressure from the Genetic Bank and the National Council.

Qu Tong hadn’t had the chance to discuss this with Si Yuting before the situation worsened.

It was because Qu Jiaojiao had posted online that she was the high fertility one.

Yet, the account was banned less than five minutes after the post.

But given the recent sensitivity around the topic of high fertility individuals, the post immediately gained attention as soon as it was made, and it was quickly screenshotted, shared, and began to spread rapidly online.

[OMG! No way, my dear Prince Consort.]

[No way, no way, could there really be a Daughter of Heaven in this world?]

[For real or for fake, isn’t it said that the higher the spiritual power grade, the lower the fertility value tends to be?]

[Not necessarily, Commander Feng’s fertility value is also very high.]

[How come I never thought of it, energy plants increase fertility value, and the energy plants are grown by the Prince Consort, so the Prince Consort’s fertility value must not be low.]

[Now that you mention it, I suddenly see the light, it really is possible.]

[My god, my mom! My brain has grown into a jujube! The original poster got banned, can someone tell me if it’s true or not?]

[I was wondering why the National Council repeatedly asked for His Highness War God to send back the high fertility individual and got refused each time, turns out it’s...]

This message was quickly deleted as soon as it was posted, and many curious folks started asking the poster if they knew something.

A while later, the poster updated their own homepage with a status that roughly said: [The news was deleted by myself, no threats were received, it was just accidentally posted wrong, please don’t speculate wildly.]

This only added fuel to the speculation and prompted a fresh round of heated debate.

Those with connections began to inquire about the recent actions of the National Council, and soon there was a confirmed answer.

[What! The high fertility individual is actually on Abel Star!]

[Wasn’t it said they couldn’t be found? How is it suddenly about whether War God is willing to send the high fertility individual back or not.]

[It’s not hard to guess, the Prince Consort is the high fertility person, His Highness War God naturally wouldn’t want to send her back. Once she’s sent back, the Genetic Bank would immediately match her with other spouses.]

[But His Highness War God’s fertility value is zero, isn’t it?]

[Regardless, the Prince Consort is a high fertility individual, the hope for the future. Even His Highness War God can’t keep the Prince Consort confined.]

[A high fertility individual is the treasure of the entire interstellar community, Admiral Si can’t be so selfish.]

[Exactly, the first high fertility person in 2000 years, at least they must be sent back to the Genetic Bank for a check-up.]

[Take the Prince Consort back to Capital Star, His Highness War God remains our deity.]

[But they are husband and wife, and their relationship is so good...]

The one or two voices speaking for Si Yuting were drowned in the overwhelming condemnation.

Qu Tong looked at one comment after another, one post after another, her eyes icing over.

She had long anticipated that once her Fertility Value was exposed, the pressure of public opinion from last time would resurface.

Sprinkled among them were some cryptic exposes and righteous calls to action, she didn’t believe for a second that there were no driving forces behind them.

As for who it was, Qu Tong could guess without using her toes.

There were only so many people in the same boat, no need to distinguish one from another.

As soon as the news broke, Jun Li’s Light Brain account became flooded with messages.

The first call came from Xu An.

In the video, Xu An’s armor was still stained with the blue bodily fluid of a Star Beast, and there were scratches bleeding on his face, with clouds sweeping past rapidly outside the glass behind him.

Xu An didn’t bother cleaning up, and asked with a face full of concern, "Sister, are you alright?"

Qu Tong cocked her head, what could possibly happen to her?

Xu An glanced around at Qu Tong’s surroundings in the video and began cautiously, "I just saw the Star Network, are you really being held captive by Admiral Si?"

Qu Tong laughed, "I’m fine, if I was being detained, you wouldn’t be able to get through to me with this call."

Xu An let out a huge sigh of relief, "I couldn’t get through to your Light Brain, I thought..."

"That Light Brain broke," Qu Tong explained indifferently.

"Then, about your Fertility Value, is it true?" Xu An finally remembered to ask about it.

Qu Tong smiled, and Xu An understood, "This is my last performance assessment, after I go back I can be promoted to a grade one junior officer, and I will be able to lead 2000 soldiers."

Xu An thought about Si Yuting’s army of 300,000 and felt a bit embarrassed, "Although it’s a bit less, but... don’t be afraid."

Qu Tong understood Xu An’s meaning and felt warmth in her heart, "Let me first congratulate you, brother, you’re really incredible!"

Xu An felt even more sheepish from Qu Tong’s praise.

After chatting for a bit, Old Man Yuan’s call came through.

Most were inquiries about her Fertility Value and personal safety.

From the other messages, she replied to a few important ones.

"Phew!" Qu Tong exhaled deeply, stood up from her chair, and patted her skirt.

Having been under Yuting’s wings for so long, carefree and comfortable, it was time to do something.

She wasn’t really a delicate flower, after all; there was nothing to make a fuss about, and she couldn’t let Yuting get bashed online for no reason.

Qu Tong left the room to find Si Yuting.

Si Yuting had given up his own room for her because he had to meet subordinates and attend video conferences. To avoid disturbing her, Yuting had moved to another place to work.

As soon as she stepped out, she ran into Xiong Lie, who had just come out of Yuting’s new office.

After exchanging greetings, Xiong Lie glanced at Qu Tong’s belly just before leaving, scratching his head and muttering, "Has Old Li’s cooking in the back kitchen improved recently? The lady seems to have overeaten? I’ll go check it out at lunch."

Qu Tong touched her belly, which was still slightly noticeable despite being covered by a loose cotton dress.

Yuting, worrying that inhaling cooking fumes too much might harm her health, didn’t let her cook every day; but since she became pregnant, she couldn’t stomach the Nutrient Solution. So Yuting had the back kitchen’s head chef, Old Li, prepare meals especially for her, and all she needed to do was supervise.

Qu Tong found this too troublesome, so she chose to eat with everyone else, but she ensured that the ingredients were what she had Xiang Bin transport from Luyi Star.

Her belly was growing bigger and bigger, and soon she wouldn’t be able to hide it; this news was bound to come out sooner or later.

After calling Yuting in and seeing no response, he looked up and realized that Qu Tong was standing at the door, her little face crumpled.

"Why have you come here? If you have something, you can call me on the Light Brain." Si Yuting stood up from his seat and walked to the door to greet Qu Tong.
