Fox Song

Chapter 185: Substitution
Fangfang turned from a young girl into a pregnant young woman, and Xiaojing was so shocked that she was speechless.

Looking at Xiao Jing who was dumbfounded, Yin Yue said coldly:
"Do you know what's going on now?!"

Yin Yue's cultivation is now far higher than Xiao Jing's, so after Hu Fangfang came in, Yin Yue sensed the little life growing in her body.

She herself had never expected that something like this would happen in what was supposed to be a happy gathering.

"Who is that man? Jiang He?" Xiao Jing took a long breath and asked curiously.

When Yin Yue transformed into Bai Zixuan, Jiang He was one of her suitors. Xiao Jing also knew who liked Bai Zixuan.

Hu Fangfang shook her head in shame and said, "No!"

"Oh, no? Could it be Bai Zixuan's college classmate, the so-called youngest senior official Luo Hongfeng?" Xiao Jing said, "He's not bad, handsome, and has a bright future!"

"Not really!" Hu Fangfang shook her head again.

"If not them, who else could it be?"

"You have seen him before! It was the day when Bai Zixuan and I swapped bodies."

"That day?" Yin Yue pondered for a moment, and a picture of summer quickly appeared in his mind.

The willow trees are densely shaded within the whitewashed walls of the Bai Family Manor. The stone table in the pavilion is filled with the aroma of tea. A young couple is playing Go.

"Could it be him?" Yin Yue asked, "The man who played chess with you?"

"Yes, it's him!" Hu Fangfang said embarrassedly with her head down.

"Where does he work now?"

"Yes, in the after-sales department of our group's Hangzhou company."

"Oh, he joined our company. That's great. How is he doing? How was his assessment last month?"

Although it is an after-sales department, both managers and employees will have corresponding assessments.

"B-level."

"Hu Fangfang, who has always been principled and selfless, has actually learned to be partial to her own interests."

"Your Highness, he is actually quite capable. It's just because I'm pregnant..." Hu Fangfang's voice was weak and tinny.

Yin Yue waved her hands and said, "This is a small matter. What I'm curious about is how you two got together. Tell me yourself, what happened?"

"Your Highness, his name is Ye Xu. I met him by chance while taking a walk in the suburbs. He had just arrived in Jinling not long ago and was working in a nearby factory. He lived near the manor."

"I, we couldn't help but fall in love with each other, and then, we couldn't control ourselves... and we got together." Hu Fangfang stammered.

"You're stupid!" Xiao Jing said helplessly, "Why didn't you abort the baby after you found out you were pregnant?"

"I tried to take it away many times, but in the end I just couldn't bear to do it!" said Hu Fangfang.

Yin Yue frowned when she heard this. This matter was a bit tricky.

Women are naturally weak, but mothers are strong!
Yin Yue once heard Hu Fangfang say that she was born into a large family of the Spirit Fox clan, but was unfortunately born to a maid. The wife had always wanted to force her mother to abort the baby, but her mother refused and was abused and beaten many times. Hu Fangfang was lucky, as her mother finally gave birth to her secretly in the woodshed and gave her away to be raised.

"If I'm not mistaken, he should also be a monk. Does he know your identity?"

Hu Fangfang nodded and said ashamedly, "He knows everything!"

Xiao Jing was shocked when she heard this and shouted, "Fang Fang, you are so confused! Can you just tell others about our situation?"

"I let it slip by accident, and then I told it all!"

Yin Yue sighed in her heart. When the couple were in love and inseparable, how could they care about so many things?

"You are willing to sell us all out! Do you know his background?" Xiao Jing said.

"He said he was an orphan since childhood and was raised by monks in Xiangguo Temple. He also became a monk in Xiangguo Temple and his Buddhist name was Xuye."

"Xu Ye? Ye Xu?"

Yin Yue read it softly, but she didn't have any impression. The monks of the Xu generation were considered the third generation disciples in Xiangguo Temple. If she wanted to investigate, she should be able to verify it by some means.

At this time, Xiao Jing continued to ask, "Did he tell me why he returned to secular life?"

"Because I broke the commandments."

"What precepts? How can someone who was raised by monks since childhood be easily expelled from the temple?" Xiaojing asked.

"He said he didn't understand it either. He just emphasized that the master said his six senses were not pure and his worldly ties were not resolved."

Xiao Jing asked several questions at once, then spread her hands and said to Yin Yue: "Sister, what do you think——" Yin Yue nodded, thought for a moment and sighed: "Ah, Fang Fang, should we just abort it?"

Hu Fangfang shuddered and tears immediately flowed out again.

She knelt down and begged, "Please forgive me, Your Highness, and spare the life of my unborn child. Fangfang is willing to be your slave..."

"Fangfang, you are confused!"

Yin Yue interrupted her and continued loudly, "The Bai Zixuan you possessed is just a mortal body, and you two are cultivators. Do you think her body has this ability and can give birth normally?"

"this?"

Hu Fangfang was speechless. Yes! Why didn't she think of this?

"If it was your real body that was pregnant, it would be fine. But Bai Zixuan's body can't. The bigger the fetus is, the more strain it will put on your body. In a few months, I estimate that this body will suck the fetus dry!"

Fangfang was already sweating profusely when she heard this.

Yin Yue continued:
"The offspring of cultivators are naturally different from ordinary people, and their needs for spiritual energy and nutrients are even more amazing. I believe you have also seen Lan Lan. Her son Qiuqiu was born after fifteen months of pregnancy, and this was only when she was a cultivator."

"Although they are of different races, she belongs to the Nether Leopard clan, and you belong to the Spirit Fox clan, but your partner is also a cultivator. Even if his cultivation is not high, but based on this estimation, the time it takes for the child to be born is about the same. Fangfang, have you ever thought about this? This body has been sucked dry, and you still can't give birth successfully? This is not only a shame to the deceased Bai Zixuan, but also hurts you!"

"I!"

Hu Fangfang burst into tears and bowed her head to the ground.

"Your Highness, there must be a way! Please save the child!"

"Please Sister Xiaojing, save the child!"

"Sister, forget it!" Xiaojing said reluctantly.

"The fetus is nearly six months old now. Although Fangfang has tried to control the size of the fetus, it is actually almost complete. If it is removed at this time, it may have a great impact on the body."

"What else can we do if we don't take it away? Just wait to be sucked dry?" Yin Yue said.

"Sister Xiaojing! Sister Xiaojing, you must have a way, right? Please! I beg you!" Hu Fangfang hugged her legs and pleaded.

There was no trace of her former graceful and elegant appearance left on her.

"Fangfang! Get up!"

Xiaojing couldn't bear it and helped her up and sat down on the seat.

She said to Yin Yue, "Sister, if we transfer the fetus in your belly to Fangfang's body, it should work..."

"Grafting?" Yin Yue's expression changed and she murmured.

"It seems possible, but the risk is too great, and what you've paid, Xiaojing..."

"Sister, I'm willing to give it a try!" Xiaojing said.

Yin Yue looked at Fang Fang and sighed, "Oh! Well! That will be hard work again!"

"Thank you, Your Highness! Thank you, Sister Xiaojing!" said Hu Fangfang.

"Okay, okay! Don't kneel anymore. We are not strangers." Yin Yue said.

"This is Bai Zixuan's body. If the little one can be born successfully, it can be considered as the bloodline of the Bai family, and it will leave a descendant for the Bai family."

"That's true!" Xiaojing nodded.

"Xiao Jing, although you have already achieved the spiritual transformation, you are the only one among us who knows medical skills." Yin Yue said to Xiao Jing, "Besides, this kind of operation is not easy. It is a serious matter, you must not take it lightly. If you need anything, just ask!"

"Don't worry, big sister. I will plan everything carefully and be fully prepared before taking action."

"Well, that's good!" Yin Yue said, and then looked at Hu Fangfang.

"Fangfang!"

"Your Highness!"

"Call Ye Xu now!" Yin Yue said, "Tell him to come over right away!"

"Your Highness!" Hu Fangfang was shocked when she heard this and said hurriedly, "This is all my fault, not his. Please..."

"Don't worry! I won't make things difficult for him!" Yin Yue waved her hand to stop her from speaking.

"But no matter what, he touched my people. I have to take another look at a character like this!"
