Chapter 1251: The Story of Ling and Heng (514)

It was winter in the jungle outside the cabin. Even though it was not covered by snow, the air was cold.

However, the cabin was as warm as spring. There was a fire in the clean stove, and there was a very safe temporary stove by the window. There was a wire net on it, and half of the smoked meat that hadn't been eaten in the afternoon was hanging on the wire net. It was slowly burning and could be eaten anytime and anywhere.

However, it wasn 't very quiet in the room. Several little birds were waiting to be fed, and they stretched their necks and mouths out to be fed.

Feng Ling used a pair of tweezers to pick up the earthworms and feed them into their mouths while teasing the chicks with a smile.

Speaking of these birds, she wanted to laugh.

She was digging out bird eggs to make a meal, but perhaps because it was winter, the mother of the eggs had flown away and the nest fell from the tree. She saw it and picked it up, but she didn't want to eat it that night. She didn't know why, but she coincidentally covered the bird nest with a thick coat and put it in a warm place near the stove. On the third night, she remembered the bird eggs and was about to pick them up when she found several eggs had cracked. Then she watched as the first bird struggled out of the broken egg.

Then, one after another...

She received a nest of little birds that were clamoring for food.

At that time, Li Nanheng had just come back from outside. He saw Feng Ling squatting by the bed at a loss. He thought something had happened to her, but when he came over, he saw the little things in front of her.

"What is it?"

Hearing the man, Feng Ling looked up at him in a daze, then pointed at the little things in front of her and said, "I wanted to make some egg soup tonight, but I didn't expect these little birds to be hatched by our clothes..."

Li Nanheng looked at the two thick clothes by the side and saw that the remaining eggs were also gradually cracking. He looked at the little things that kept crying out with their mouths wide open and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Do you want to raise it?" Li Nanheng asked with a smile.

"I want to eat it." Feng Ling's expression was very sincere.

Li Nanheng raised his brows. "Eat them?"

"I want to eat bird eggs. The weather has been cold recently. These eggs are not as easy to find as in summer." Feng Ling looked lost and melancholic. "But little birds have hatched. What should I do?"

Li Nanheng burst into laughter. He knew that Feng Ling was straightforward. If she said she wanted to eat it, she really wanted to eat it. However, these little birds were too small. Even if she wanted to make some bird meat soup, it was impossible. He could only smile and say, "Do as you please."

These words caused Feng Ling to squat in front of the little birds in a daze for a long time. In the end, she saw that they wanted to eat. There were quite a lot of earthworms in the room that she had just dug out. She didn't know what birds ate, but she heard that they should eat insects. They should be able to eat earthworms as well, right?

Thus, she tried to feed them, and it really worked.

So she fed them and raised them for a week.

Li Nanheng came in and saw that she was feeding the birds. He walked over towards the bird nest that was made with some old cloth. He touched it gently and Feng Ling quickly raised her hand to push him away. "Aiya, don't touch them."

Li Nanheng smiled. "I think they've grown a lot in the past few days. They can be used to make soup."

Feng Ling's expression faltered. She abruptly turned to look at him, only to see that the man was looking down at her with a malicious smile.

The corner of her mouth twitched, and she hurriedly bent down to carry the nest of little birds to the bed like a protective mother hen. She used her body to block the bird's nest as she said, "I've been raising them for a week. If you dare to eat them, I won't let you off."

Not only did Li Nanheng not leave, but he even approached her. As she sat by the bed, he bent down and trapped her by the bed. He lowered his head and kissed her on the cheek. "How do you want to settle this with me?"

Feng Ling quickly pushed him away. "Don't mess around. Don't press them down... They're still small and their feathers haven't fully grown. Let me warn you, don't have any ideas about them. If you want to eat them, go ahead and eat other things. I'll keep these... uu!"

Before she could finish speaking, the man bent down to hug her and kissed her.

Although they had been together for half a year every day, Li Nanheng's enthusiasm for her had increased instead of decreasing. It was as if he loved her more every day, and his enthusiasm had never waned.

Feng Ling had long gotten used to his habit of pressing her down on the bed whenever he wanted to kiss her. After being kissed for a while, the man released her, touched her shoulder-length hair, kissed her hair, and smiled at her.

Feng Ling didn't know what the man was laughing at, but she instinctively felt that he was not thinking of anything good.

Of course, she didn't expect that Li Nanheng would consider their future baby when he saw her protecting the little birds like this. Feng Ling was not used to dealing with womanly things, but she was still a woman. This instinct was innate. After feeding the little birds for a week, she treated them like treasures. If one day, she really gave birth to a child that belonged to them, that scene... Just thinking about it made him excited...

Although she couldn't eat bird meat soup, she still had the smoked meat from the day. Feng Ling carefully cut the meat into thin slices and made two simple vegetable dishes.

Life in the jungle was not especially simple because of Li Nanheng's existence. It could even be said to be extremely luxurious. When Feng Ling was a child, she lived in the jungle. However, Li Nanheng had been in the base for many years and his ability to survive in the wild was not much worse than hers. He had brought back a lot of wild game along the way. They did not lack food or clothes.

During dinner, Feng Ling wanted to pick up a piece of smoked meat to eat, but she suddenly felt nauseous. She put down her chopsticks and turned to the table to retch.

"What's wrong?"

"I'm fine. My stomach doesn't feel well." Feng Ling didn't vomit anything for a long time. She took a sip of the warm water that Li Nanheng handed her, took a deep breath, and picked up two more vegetable dishes. She no longer ate meat.

Li Nanheng looked at her and suddenly asked, "Are you pregnant?"

Feng Ling didn't react at first. After half a minute, when she understood what he meant, she almost dropped the bowl in her hand. "How is that possible?!"

Li Nanheng calmly curved his lips. "Although I pay attention every time, no contraception can guarantee 100% success."

Feng Ling: "...??!! "
