Chapter 102: Pregnancy

“Sir, you seem to carry a similar scent.”
The woman slowly lifted her head and looked at Qin Feng, who had just spoken, then tapped her nose.
“I was born with a keen sense of smell, almost like a dog, able to detect others’ scents.”
Ji Linmo frowned.
Was this woman saying she had a “dog nose”?
“So, what do you want?”
Ji Linmo kept his guard up, watching the woman warily.
The woman named Liu Xiao took a few steps back, keeping a safe distance before lowering her hands.
“Both of you, as I said earlier, I smelled the scent of a companion on you, and I am searching for my companion.”
“If you don’t mind, I hope we can cooperate to finish this game together.”
Ji Linmo scanned the woman before him, finding her words utterly nonsensical.
He never accepted teammates who appeared out of nowhere and came knocking on his door.
“Mr. Ji, let’s go. This woman seems mentally unstable.”
Qin Feng patted Ji Linmo on the shoulder, signaling they should return to their room first.
But hearing “Mr. Ji,” Liu Xiao slowly lifted her head.
“Sir, your surname is Ji, and your name is Ji Linmo, right?”
Ji Linmo’s expression remained unchanged as he did not stop walking.
“I’ve heard your name from my boyfriend. I think you know him as well.”
Ji Linmo paused briefly, then slowly asked, “Who?”
“My boyfriend’s name is Lin Bufei. Do you remember him?”
“I’ve seen photos of you and him together, but I usually recognize people by their scent, so I’m not entirely sure if you are the Ji Linmo I mean...”
Lin Bufei’s girlfriend?
Ji Linmo scrutinized the woman carefully.
—Delicate features, graceful figure, polite speech, and an elegant, composed aura.
Could someone like her really have caught Lin Bufei’s eye?
“How... how did you end up with Lin Bufei? Was he persistent with you?”
“To be honest, it was me clinging to him. I fell for him at first sight.”
The woman seemed a bit shy as she adjusted her glasses.
“In our first game together, his handsome appearance drew me in, and his calm demeanor and taciturn, aloof temperament made me admire him.”
Ah?
Calm and aloof Lin Bufei?
Ji Linmo’s face showed rare shock.

“Are you sure you’re talking about...”
Seeing Ji Linmo’s disbelief, Liu Xiao quickly mentioned the nicknames they had at Yuren High School.
Now Ji Linmo had no reason to doubt her.
But Liu Xiao grew excited, grabbing Ji Linmo’s clothes and shaking her high ponytail from side to side.
“I smell his scent on you! Is Lin Bufei alright?”
“I... I’m pregnant—with his child.”
After saying this, Liu Xiao touched her belly with a forlorn expression.
“I just found out myself... In the last game, because I was on a lower-level dungeon, Lin Bufei was worried I’d be dragged down, so he dissolved our teammate bond...”
“Have you seen Lin Bufei? Is he okay?”
This question struck Ji Linmo like a death blow, gripping his throat.
He stared blankly at the woman, unable to utter a sound.
“He...”
After a brief silence, Ji Linmo spoke hesitantly,
“He’s gone...”
“Lin Bufei is gone... What killed him?”
The woman asked, and Ji Linmo glanced at Qin Feng with anger flashing in his eyes.
The young man stood with arms crossed, staring back without blinking.
“It was him!”
Without hesitation, Ji Linmo punched the boy.
The fierce punch carried unspeakable rage; though Qin Feng dodged swiftly, the fist almost grazed his cheek.
“Mr. Ji, calm down. You trust too easily. Who knows if what she says...”
“Shut up!”
Veins bulging on his forehead, Ji Linmo grabbed the boy by the collar and swept his leg, knocking him to the ground.
At that moment, Qin Feng saw the overwhelming fury blazing in Ji Linmo’s eyes.
Ji Linmo raised his hand and squeezed Qin Feng’s neck so hard his thumb nearly gouged flesh from the boy’s throat.
—The earlier request for cooperation, the way he tried to play along with the boy’s temper, had nothing to do with him now.
“It’s all your fault! You... beast in human skin!”
Ji Linmo’s eyes filled with hatred.
If not for this madman before him, Lin Bufei could have reunited with his girlfriend.
But after uttering “beast,” a sudden chill surged through his limbs and bones.
His body began trembling uncontrollably, like a weak cub shivering before its predator.
Was he scared?

Ji Linmo looked at his trembling hands and stopped.
Why?
“Mr. Ji...”
The smile on Qin Feng’s face faded bit by bit, and a red gleam flickered in his eyes.
“You say I’m a beast?”
“If so, how about I show you what a beast looks like?”
With that, the boy grabbed Ji Linmo’s right hand and twisted it sharply backward.
Crack!
A crisp sound rang out.
Ji Linmo looked at his wrist, which was twisted in an unnatural angle against his arm.
“Ugh!”
He gritted his teeth to stifle a cry, but the boy didn’t stop. He pressed down along the arm almost caressingly.
“Ugh!”
Ji Linmo frowned in pain as Qin Feng crushed the bones of his right arm and hand barehanded.
His arm now hung limp like a noodle.
“I should have done this a long time ago. Don’t you think so, Mr. Ji?”
The boy, staring at the man pinned beneath him, with a face contorted in pain, squinted and chuckled softly.
“Mr. Ji, actually Lin Bufei is still alive... I spared him for your sake.”
Ji Linmo’s eyes widened in disbelief.
He studied Qin Feng closely, trying to determine if this was a lie.
But the boy just smiled at him.
“Now I’m starting to regret it, Mr. Ji, because I am a beast.”
“So, as a beast, what do you think I’ll do to Lin Bufei’s woman?”
Ji Linmo’s pupils contracted sharply. He immediately stretched out his only remaining left hand to stop the boy.
But Qin Feng kicked him harshly aside, leaving him no chance to get up, and strode toward the woman.
At that moment, Ji Linmo suddenly realized the source of his trembling body was the boy before him.
“No...”
Watching Qin Feng approach the woman, Ji Linmo reached out and grabbed the boy’s pant leg.
