"He is very young. Well…." Jiu Hu is thinking if Hei Bai Mao said something about his day of birth. Then, Jiu Hu remembered that He Bai Mao did say that he was born in late fall. "Oh! More or less a season younger than you."

Hu'er tilted her head, "Just a season? Not the whole season?" she said to clarify what she interpreted.

He chuckled and nodded. "Just a season, a little more than a season to be exact. He will be having his day in late fall. Anyway, let's go to your old room? Have a check up?" Jiu Hu changed the subject when he realized that he kept on talking about Hei Bai Mao.

He got used to it. Hei Bai Mao has been the talk recently ever since he came to study under Qiang Li and Hou Yu. Jiu Hu and the rest would sometimes get together with some beastmen and talk about everything and Hei Bai Mao would also be included in their conversation.

Hu'er looks at Jiu Lin, when he nodded, "Yes," she agreed to him. It was a reflex that Jiu Hu understood. Hu'er have now depended on Jiu Lin more than he ever expected.

Most females won't ask for their mates when they want to do something or go somewhere as long as it's within the tribe. Yet Hu'er 'asked' for permission to go with him, his Dada.

When Hu'er realized what she did, her face flushed. She got used to it. She always wanted to make sure to get Jiu Lin's approval or response before doing something. It's all because she wanted Jiu Lin to integrate himself into her life, to be a bit confident and feel useful. Yet… It seems like she integrated herself into his life instead.

"I'll leave Hu'er to Dad. We will be discussing something." Jiu Lin pointed at Song Li and the rest.

"Go on." Hu'er Dada waves at them. Hu'er smiles and nodded. She followed her Dada in their house. Shun Su didn't go with the others and followed them in.

Just as they went in, Jiu Su and his mate were walking out. His mate's belly is really big. It looks like it would blow up at any moment. She is only covering her chest and her tummy is so exposed.

Hu'er immediately looked away from it and went straight to her face. The female looks so proud and a bit excited.

"Hu'er," Jiu Su giggled. He looks so happy and excited. Jiu Hu nodded at them and asked to be excused first to prepare for Hu'er's check up.

She beamed, "Hi!" and looked at the female. Hu'er smiles at her.

The female gave her a gentle smile, rubbed her tummy and said, "It's a female."

"Wow! congratulations!"

"Thank you. Congratulations to you too."

"Thank you too."

"We will be going dad for a check up," Shun Su took her hand and dragged her into the room.

Jiu Su looks so helpless, "Go on." He gave her a look that made her confused and baffled. His brother looks guilty and sorry as he pacifies his mate to go home.

Hu'er stopped at the door of the room and looked at them. She watched them walk out the house. The mates of the pregnant female fetched them and put fabric to hide her belly.

They have been coaxing the female to protect her belly so it won't hurt that much if the female gets born.

She never heard such a thing and thinks they are just saying that so the female would cover her belly for protection. However it indeed worked as she hid her belly with all that fabric. She might be thinking that it will lessen the pain because that's what her mates said.

This is the first time she will be having a female baby. She also knew that her mates have been learning how to protect her so she obediently did what they told her.

"Is that true?" She looks at her Dada who is now beside her.

He gently soothed her hair and guided her in the room. "Hmmm? What?"

She waves at her tummy, "Lessening the pain. If we don't expose our tummy when pregnant it will lessen the pain…?"

Jiu Hu chuckles, "Maybe? We don't have proof for that but if it's true, then that would be great." He continues to check up on her health as they both get into conversation.

Hu'er puffed her cheeks, "I'll take that as a no."

"There is something good about it though. Covering it is to protect the body of the female and the cubs and little female for any accident that might possibly happen. So, it is still better to do those things for any instances that it happens. It's not a bad thing to be cautious." Jiu Hu taps her nose just as he is preparing for another check up.

Shun Su had been just at the corner of the room, listening to them talking. When Jiu Hu is done with check up, he took Hu'er out of the house. Jiu Hu didn't follow them as he still had some work to do.

While walking towards the gate leading to Hu'er home. They saw Jiu Lin standing there waiting for them to arrive.

"Your Dad looks so proud," Hu'er couldn't help but break the quietness around them.

"He is." He nodded.

Hu'er hesitated for a bit but remembered how the female looked at Shun Su. It was something. She felt that the female wanted to say something to Shun Su. "Your mom seems to want to talk to you."

Shun Su stiffened and pursed his lips before releasing a helpless sigh. "I'll go there later. My other brothers should be going too."

She was about to ask more about it when Jiu Lin took her hand. "Let's go home?"

The female gave her a gentle smile, rubbed her tummy and said, "It's a female."

"Wow! congratulations!" Hu'er smiles widely and felt good. But her feelings were replaced with confusion when she saw the female looking at Shun Su, as if hinting him something.

"Thank you. Congratulations to you too. You're an adult now, little sis." Her fifth brother is tugging his mate.

"Thank you..."

"We will be going dad for a check up," Shun Su took her hand and dragged her into the room.

Jiu Su looks so helpless, "Go on." He gave her a look that made her confused and baffled. His brother looks guilty and sorry as he pacifies his mate to go home.

"Oh…" Hu'er nodded and wave goodbye to Shun Su.

Shun Su watched them go in and close the gate. He sighed and went out to go to his brothers.
