Chapter 496: 12.104

"I will never abort this baby!"

"Y—Yunyu, you should rest!" Huang Shu tried to help his wife, but Yunyu slapped Huang Shu's hand.

"Huang Shu, if you dare to abort this baby, then I will follow him to the afterlife. I will die together with him!" Yunyu stated. His face was flushed red as if he was about to cry. 

"N—No, we will find another way to save the baby. I mean, we can also have another baby later—"

"Do you think I'm stupid? I heard everything, and the Physician said that we would never be able to have another baby! I will be infertile if you abort this one!" 

"Yunyu, your condition is not good right now. Let's sit first. You don't want anything to happen to our baby, right?" Huang Shu tried to persuade Yunyu. 

The Physician knew there was nothing he could do other than giving the couple more time. Thus he said, "You can always summon me again when you've decided what to do next."

The Physician left Yunyu and Huang Shu alone. 

Huang Shu guided Yunyu back to their room. Yunyu glared at him and slapped his hand again when Huang Shu wanted to caress his shoulder. 

"Huang Shu, if you dare to abort this baby, then I will kill myself. I will follow this baby to the afterlife, leaving you alone here with your grief!"

"D—Don't say that," Huang Shu felt his back was wet because of cold sweat. He was also crushed by this harsh truth. He didn't even know what to say anymore. 

But he loved his wife so much, there was no way for him to sacrifice Yunyu for the baby, "My Beloved, we can always adopt a baby. We can even adopt three or four."

"YOU CAN ADOPT ANYONE YOU WANT, BUT I WANT MY OWN CHILD!" Yunyu erupted when Huang Shu said that. He didn't mind if they adopted a child because a Ger could only have one or two children at most. But that didn't mean Yunyu didn't want his own, the child that he birthed by himself. 

Huang Shu was stumped after hearing the response. He didn't know what to do anymore, "Yunyu, I really don't want to lose you or the baby. But the chance of you surviving after childbirth is very slim…."

"Why don't you believe me? Huang Shu, I am a martial artist! I have incredible endurance. I can handle simple childbirth!"

[Pupa: No, you can't.]

Pupa suddenly popped out from a portal and interrupted Yunyu. It returned with a report of Yunyu's advanced body scan.

[Pupa: I've just returned from the headquarter and found out that your time in this world is up. That's why your body has weakened to an alarming state. The reason for your weakening body is because of that Rewind Stone.]

[Pupa: Father Admin told me that Master Han Ye had shown some resistance and that Rewind Stone is supposed to be used only by Master Han Ye's souls, not by you.]

[Pupa: Unlike Huang Shu, when you used that stone, you will be on a borrowed time, so you can only survive for so long because of your strong life energy. If not because of that, you would've been dead a year ago.] 

[Pupa: That Physician is correct, by the way. If you pushed yourself to the limit if you do childbirth. You will have a guaranteed death.]

[… Is there no other way?]

[Pupa: No.]

The harsh and cold truth hit Yunyu to the deepest. He thought it was just Huang Shu and the Physician's worry because he was strong, but he didn't expect Pupa to confirm it.

Meanwhile, Huang Shu was convinced with Yunyu's confidence that he could survive, although he was still worried in his heart. 

"Yunyu, if you can't do it, you should tell me, okay? I'm really okay with adoption as long as you're safe."

"Trust me, Husband. You know how powerful I am. A simple childbirth will be quick and painless, don't worry."

[Pupa, I will never abort the baby. Huang Shu wants this as much as I do. Even if he said that he is okay with adoption.]

[I think, even the Bai Yunyu of this world also wants the baby. They've gone through a lot, and a baby would be the greatest gift that Yunyu of this world could give to Huang Shu.]

[Pupa: Even if it will kill you?]

[I mean, you said that I'm on a borrowed time. What's the point of aborting the baby when I will also die soon anyway?]

[Pupa: True, glad that you know priority.]

[Oh, what's the current Fatemeter and Breakmeter?]

[Pupa: Fatemeter is 95%. Breakmeter is still 0%]

[Wait, what? 0%? HOW!?}

[Pupa: There are two requisites of how to fill the Breakmeter of this world. The first is to make Huang Shu stop using the Rewind Stone. Second… is to give Huang Shu a baby.]

[Eeeee… you never told me about the second requisite!]

[Pupa: I've just discovered this because this Breakmeter requisite got unlocked when I was a Larva before. So I have to redownload it.]

[Heh, so in the end, there is no way to complete this world without dying, again.]

[Pupa: I mean, that's literally your specialty. Dramatic death.]

[Ish, you make it sounds so depressing!]

[Pupa: Then… how about the first requisite? How would you make Huang Shu stopped using the Rewind Stone? You know that you have to tell him about the Rewind Stone sooner or later, right? You need to return his memory, so he can decide whether he wants to rewind the time or not.]

[Ah, don't worry about that, my special skill, Dramatic Death, will help me to clear that requisite easily!]

[Pupa: You sound weirdly lax for someone who will die during childbirth.]

[I mean, I've experienced many deaths, and I gave birth plenty of times also. What's so painful of dying during childbirth?] 

[Pupa:…]

Now that Yunyu was determined to save the baby, he was worried about Huang Shu. Because Yunyu was fated to leave this world soon, meaning that Huang Shu would be a single father for their baby.

Yunyu slid closer to Huang Shu. He didn't have much time to confront Huang Shu about this, "Husband, just… just in case. In case if I died during childbirth, will you find another woman to bear your child and take care of our baby?"

Huang Shu's eyes widened instantly. He grabbed Yunyu's shoulder and shook his head, "Y—You said that you will survive just now! Don't scare me, Yunyu!"

"It was just a what-if situation! Of course, I will survive!" Yunyu yelled to cover his lie.

Thus, Huang Shu weakened his grip and then pondered for a moment before replying, "I will never remarry. You're the only one in my heart and in my life. I will take care of our baby by myself, though I would probably hire a woman to be a nursing mother to feed our baby with breast milk first."

"Yunyu, please don't scare me. You told me that you'll survive, so you have to fulfill your promise."

Yunyu smiled and nodded, "Of course, I will survive for you… and for our baby, Husband."
