Chapter 1596: Chapter 928: Zhuang Shuyuan Also Wants a Child
In fact, according to the research by Yang Shenmin and others, the higher the progress of gene recombination, the lower the chances of getting pregnant with an ordinary Superpower User.
According to Yang Shenmin’s hypothesis, this might be related to the degree of evolution.
Once genetic reorganization reaches perfection, Superpower Users might even evolve into a completely different species.
At that time, Star God level Superpower Users might even experience reproductive isolation from ordinary gene recombination Superpower Users.
So Ding Yan, Lin Ya, and Dong Yan are actually a bit anxious.
Especially Ding Yan, she knows Liang Yuan’s cultivation progress and might soon break through to the Star God realm and leave this planet, so she is naturally more anxious.
Lin Ya is also very anxious because of her age.
Before the apocalypse, she would have been considered an older single woman.
Of course, with the emergence of superpowers, age for Superpower Users is just a number and doesn’t signify aging.
Granny Li is sixty years old, but after awakening to her superpower, she’s becoming more youthful.
Now, she looks about forty years old.
Genetic evolution brings not only an enhancement of superpowers but also a rapid improvement in various bodily functions.
Delayed aging is naturally expected as well.
Liang Yuan also intentionally slowed down his cultivation progress, accompanying the women around him these days.
One day, Liang Yuan was in the Leader’s Mansion handling documents.
There was a knock on the door outside.
A whiff of fragrance wafted in from the doorway.
Liang Yuan looked up and saw Zhuang Shuyuan leaning against the doorframe, dressed in a rose-red off-shoulder cheongsam. Her skin, like white jade, appeared as delicate and smooth as porcelain under the rosy dress.
Liang Yuan glanced at her and said, “What is it?”
Zhuang Shuyuan swayed her waist and walked in slowly, asking, “I heard recently that Minister Song is pregnant?”
Liang Yuan chuckled, “You’re the minister in charge of the intelligence system at the Inspection Department, how come you just found out about this?”
Zhuang Shuyuan walked to the table and poured a glass of water for Liang Yuan, smiling, “It’s not that I just found out. I heard the news a while ago, but I haven’t had a chance to see you.”
“Since it’s rare to catch you at the Leader’s Mansion, I rushed over right away.”
A look of grievance and sadness appeared on her face, as if blaming Liang Yuan for not seeing her for too long.
Liang Yuan didn’t react; Zhuang Shuyuan wasn’t the type to lose her mind over love.
This woman was a typical ambitious person and wouldn’t sigh over romantic feelings.
Liang Yuan asked, “What’s the matter?”
“You’re so insensitive!” Zhuang Shuyuan gave him a sidelong glance and sat down, saying, “I heard from Dr. Yang that the higher the level of gene recombination in Superpower Users, the harder it is to conceive. Is that true?”
Liang Yuan looked at her and said, “There is such a saying.”
Zhuang Shuyuan showed a curious expression, “Why is that?”
“Because the higher the progress of gene recombination, the faster the Superpower User evolves, meaning their body structure and genetic form have already changed, creating a difference from ordinary Superpower Users.”
“When two people’s genes are different, the chances of having offspring naturally decrease.”
Zhuang Shuyuan puzzled, “After reaching the Star God realm, won’t they all be unable to have children?”
Liang Yuan said, “It’s not possible with ordinary Superpower Users, but it might be possible with those of the same level.”
Zhuang Shuyuan hesitated for a moment, then asked, “At what level have you cultivated to now?”
“Why do you want to know?”
“You’ve been with Yang Mei and the others for two or three years now, and only Yang Mei and Song Wen are pregnant. Ding Yan, Dong Yan, and Lin Ya are not. Is it because your cultivation progress is too fast?”
Liang Yuan replied, “Maybe.”
Zhuang Shuyuan sighed, “You know, a woman without children is really pitiful.”
“Especially in the current environment, it’s really difficult for a woman to rely on her own strength; only by relying on a husband and children.”
“If she has children, her life would be filled with hope.”
Liang Yuan frowned and asked, “What are you actually trying to say?”
Zhuang Shuyuan sat by his desk and said, “Mr. Liang, I’m also a woman. I know, if I follow you, I can’t be with another man.”
“But you’re not going to marry me, which to me is like not having a husband.”
“Now, having a child is my only hope.”
Her eyes were fervent as she looked at Liang Yuan, her meaning clear.
Liang Yuan was speechless, knowing this woman had ulterior motives.
“Why do you want a child? You’re in a high position now with power at your hand, yet you don’t feel secure?”
Zhuang Shuyuan rolled her eyes at him, “I’m aware, okay? The reason I’m in this position is because of you, isn’t it?”
“What if one day you’re unhappy and replace me, what would I do?”
Liang Yuan smiled, “Is that how you see me?”
“Men, not many are good, you know.” Zhuang Shuyuan laughed playfully, “Of course, you’re different from other men. If someone else were in your position, not just me, Han Xiangman, Wang Ling’Er, none of the beauties would be able to escape.”
“Only you can restrain yourself.”
“But precisely because you’re like this, I’m scared.”
“Look at yourself, you have so much self-control now. What happens when I grow old and lose my looks, have no capital left, and can’t please you?”
“It’s still safer to have a child, having my son support me in the future.”
Liang Yuan was speechless; this woman truly knew how to scheme.
He glanced at Zhuang Shuyuan and said, “Is there anything else? If not, close the door.”
Zhuang Shuyuan’s eyes sparkled, and she suddenly smiled slightly, “Alright.”
After saying that, she immediately walked to the doorway, closed the door from the inside, and even locked it.
“It’s closed, Mr. Liang.”
She twisted her waist and smiled alluringly.
Liang Yuan looked up, instantly speechless, “I meant for you to close it from the outside.”
Zhuang Shuyuan smiled charmingly but didn’t listen; instead, she came to the table, leaned forward, revealing a proud cleavage.
Then her beautiful legs, clad in stockings, climbed onto the table.
She was like a seductive and charming beauty cat, lazily crawling toward Liang Yuan, swaying the two great objects in front of her.
“Mr. Liang, I don’t want status, responsibility, or companionship; I just want a child. Can’t you agree to that?”
She breathed tantalizingly, already at Liang Yuan’s face, her head resting on Liang Yuan’s shoulder and neck.
A woman’s fragrance wafted into his nose.
Among Liang Yuan’s women, only Zhuang Shuyuan would employ such tactics.
Whether it was Yang Mei, Song Wen, Ding Yan, or Lin Ya, none could be this bold.
From Zhuang Shuyuan, Liang Yuan could always feel pure desire.
She slid off the table, daringly sitting in Liang Yuan’s lap.
Liang Yuan was tall, and her sitting in his lap was like a soft cat.
At this moment, Zhuang Shuyuan indeed resembled a kitten, extending a pink tongue, tempting Liang Yuan.
Her long, soft hands slowly reached into Liang Yuan’s belt.
“Master, won’t you help me please?”
She asked in a low voice.
A woman with a severe craving for power always displayed a lofty demeanor outside.
Displaying such an attitude before you now, few men could probably resist.
Liang Yuan took a deep breath and said solemnly, “You’re asking for it, you little vixen!”
Saying this, he lifted her abruptly, and Zhuang Shuyuan exclaimed in surprise.
Then there was the sound of a cheongsam being torn.
Followed by whimpers and madness.
Time passed quickly; another three days elapsed.
Zhuang Shuyuan came to the Leader’s Mansion almost every day to report work.
The frequency was higher than a month’s worth of reports previously.
However, if you paid attention, you would notice she always appeared spirited upon arrival but changed her clothes and walked with a peculiar gait when leaving.
If she could fly, she seemed not to plan on walking.
On this day, Zhuang Shuyuan meticulously chose a golden gown at home, donned a pearl necklace, and applied an elegant traditional makeup style, intending to go to the Leader’s Mansion.
However, a subordinate from the Inspection Department quickly knocked at the door.
Zhuang Shuyuan heard the commotion, walked out, and saw her confidant, Jiang Lan.
Surprised, she asked, “What’s the matter?”
Typically, if Jiang Lan and her team had intelligence, they’d report it to the Inspection Department, rarely visiting her home.
Unless it was very important intelligence, fearing delay, they’d come immediately to find her.
Jiang Lan hurriedly said, “Minister, significant intelligence has come from the north: James from Kerry Technology has been captured.”
“What?”
Zhuang Shuyuan was shocked, promptly walked over, and asked, “The intelligence?”
Jiang Lan quickly handed her an intelligence report paper.
Zhuang Shuyuan scanned it rapidly, her expression changing instantly.
“Jingzhou Military? Isn’t it Divine Country?”
Jiang Lan quickly clarified, “Yes, we’ve been wary that the Divine Country might move south, yet unexpectedly, before the Divine Country did, the Jingzhou Military sent people south to capture James, forcing Kerry Technology to surrender.”
Zhuang Shuyuan said seriously, “James’s superpower isn’t simple. Not only is his gene recombination progress considerable, but his superpower can suppress any other superpower.”
“How could he be captured so easily?”
“The specifics are still being investigated; the combat details aren’t clear. However, according to our spies, there’s no sign of a large-scale battle.”
“It seems James was captured silently.”
“Then what’s their goal?” Zhuang Shuyuan asked, puzzled.
“Currently, they’ve demanded that Kerry Technology collaborate with Jingzhou Military to encircle the Divine Country!”
Jiang Lan quickly explained, “They want to force Kerry Technology to act, intercepting the Divine Country’s southern path, and then Jingzhou strikes from the north, pinching from both ends to completely destroy the Divine Country.”
Zhuang Shuyuan immediately understood the situation; her expression grew serious, and she said promptly, “I’ll go find Mr. Liang immediately.”
