The Two Hundred and Eighty Pound Fat Girl and Her Five Husbands-Chapter 356: Back to the Frontier
Chapter 356
"Yes, yes! My husbands are pregnant, and I've been away for so long that they might be close to giving birth by now. Mother, as the grandmother of these children, don't you have anything to say about this?"
Lin Zaozao wiggled her fingers, her intention to ask for something couldn't be more obvious.
Seeing Lin Zaozao's outstretched hand, Mother grabbed it and placed it in front of her, exclaiming excitedly.
"My dear child, are you saying you can make your husbands pregnant?"
"Yes! What about it?"
"Sweetie, why don't you take your mother with you? I'd like some handsome men to bear my children too."
"Really? How many do you want them to give you?"
Lin's Father's sinister words made Mother's expression freeze. She turned around trembling, only to meet Lin's Father's "kind" smile.
"If you want children so badly, let's go make a second child right now. After all, now that Zaozao is gone, you indeed need someone to keep you company."
Lin's Father wrapped his arm around Mother and turned towards their bedroom.
"Hey, hey, hey! Mother, what about the welcome gifts for the children?"
"Here, take it! You ungrateful brat."
Lin Zaozao quickly caught what Mother threw at her—a black card.
Ha! What use did she have for this card? Was she supposed to swipe it for purchases in ancient times?
Looking at the closed door, Lin Zaozao sighed in frustration, placed the card on the table, and with a spin, vanished from the living room.
After Lin Zaozao left, the tightly shut door opened again. Mother, seeing the empty doorway, could no longer hold back her tears.
"Husband, I'm so sad. Our dear child left, and I couldn't even say goodbye."
"Honey, don't cry. Didn't Luo Luo say in the letter that he and Zaozao are now time managers? They'll come back to see us when conditions allow. Besides, it's quieter now that she's gone. That little girl maxed out my card in just one day."
"Husband!"
"What is it?"
"Let's have a second child!"
...
When the mist before her eyes disappeared and Lin Zaozao opened her eyes again, she saw nothing but white all around her.
Oh, my! She had landed in the wrong place—how did she end up on a giant glacier?
At this moment, Lin Zaozao was still wearing her flowery one-piece jumpsuit. The thin summer fabric offered little protection.
As the cold wind blew, it chilled her to the bone!
She quickly rummaged through the supplies she had brought and pulled out a large floral cotton jacket, putting it on.
Unfortunately, she hadn't brought any shoes in her supplies.
Lin Zaozao looked down at her flip-flops, feeling as if her feet were about to turn into ice blocks.
Oh, mama! It's so cold!
Unable to bear the cold any longer, Lin Zaozao dug out two scarves from her supplies and quickly wrapped them around her feet.
"Xiao Taohua, Little Xibei, I'm sorry! The scarves I prepared for you two now have to be used to wrap my feet. But don't worry, once I'm warm, I'll definitely buy new ones for you both."
After wrapping her feet while shivering, Lin Zaozao felt the warmth returning to her feet and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.
As expected of old scarves bought with her father's card, the warmth they provided was top-notch.
But when Lin Zaozao looked up, all she could see was a vast expanse of white, without a single human figure in sight.
Where on earth had she ended up?
"Eeny, meeny, miny, moe, which direction should I go?"
Lin Zaozao closed her eyes and spun around quickly. When she opened her eyes again, she started walking in the direction her finger was pointing.
Whatever! Wherever she ended up would be fine. She wouldn't retreat, wouldn't give up!
But just as she took a couple of steps, she saw a giant snake slithering towards her. She immediately stopped in her tracks, her feet trembling.
"Mama mia! Sometimes you've got to know when to quit! Heavens above! How can there be a snake in such a cold place? Shouldn't it be hibernating?
Ahhh! Help! Save this beauty! I'm about to be swallowed by a snake!"
Lin Zaozao screamed as she kicked off her wrapped feet and ran forward as fast as she could.
Because of the scarves wrapped around her feet, she hadn't run more than a few steps before tripping and falling to the ground.
Seeing the snake's mouth lunging towards her, Lin Zaozao even forgot to run.
Oh my goodness! The snake's head is so big, its mouth stinks, and its teeth are so long!
Faced with the giant snake, Lin Zaozao's reaction was to simply close her eyes.
Waiting for death!
But death was not an option!
After a long while, Lin Zaozao slowly opened one eye. Her gaze met Murong Hai's handsome face.
"Ahh! My dear husband Murong! You came just in time. If you had been a moment later, you would have had to dig me out of the giant snake's belly tomorrow!
By then, I might have already turned into poop!"
Murong Hai caught Lin Zaozao as she threw herself at him, listening to her chattering in his ear.
Murong Hai, who was usually strong and unexpressive, could no longer control his tears.
"Zaozao, you're back."
"I'm back, I'm back."
Lin Zaozao hugged Murong Hai's neck, glancing at the beheaded giant snake on the ground, and instinctively burrowed her head deeper into Murong Hai's neck.
Oh, mama! She was most afraid of these cold-blooded, hairless creatures.
Moreover, the snake before her was so enormous!
What a big spicy strip!
"Zaozao..."
"What is it, my darling Hai?"
"Thank you, thank you for being willing to come back."
Hearing the choke in Murong Hai's voice that he could barely suppress, Lin Zaozao finally noticed that something was off about his emotions.
"Murong Hai, what's wrong? Why would you think I wouldn't come back?"
Lin Zaozao jumped down from Murong Hai's arms and looked into his eyes, asking in confusion.
"Zaozao, in your past life, you were a high and mighty High Priestess, an existence we could only look up to but never reach.
Zaozao, thinking of your past life, we feel unworthy of you, unworthy of someone as good as you."
"You mean, because of this silver hair of mine?"
Lin Zaozao tugged at her silver hair, speaking with disdain.
"No, no..."
Before Murong Hai could finish, Lin Zaozao placed her hand on her head. In the next moment, her silver hair turned black.
"Hai, do you want me to turn my body into a big fatty, then put a large black mole on my face to restore my original 'breathtaking beauty'? Would you feel worthy of me then?"
"Zaozao, there's no need, no need at all."
Seeing Murong Hai's anxious expression, Lin Zaozao couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Murong Hai, do you remember what I looked like when we first got married? Wasn't I fat, ugly, and foolish?"
"Yes!"
"And you, Ruo Qiu, Ye Yi, Ji Fantian, and Gu Shan, apart from being poisoned, weren't you all handsome and dashing?"
"Um... I suppose so!"
"What do you mean 'suppose'? You absolutely were. Even when I was that ugly, did I ever feel inferior when facing you all? Did I ever feel like I wasn't good enough for you?"
"Hmm! No, you didn't."
"Well, there you have it. Even when I was in such a miserable state, I could still stay optimistic and face life positively. And now you're all feeling unworthy of me just because of your social status? Hah!"
