CHAPTER 338: CHAPTER 336: DISABLED PIG

Lin Xue felt a bit stuffed, but both her grandma and mom told her to stay in bed and not move around too much, saying it was not good for the baby.

She had no choice but to lock the door and secretly slipped into the space to walk off the food.

"Boss, you scared me! I thought the baby was in danger!" As soon as Lin Xue entered the space, the assistant’s voice sounded. Although it was saying caring words, the mechanical voice was devoid of emotion. Fortunately, Lin Xue was used to it, or she would have been startled.

"Can you say something auspicious?" Lin Xue looked up, "I was scared enough myself!"

"Don’t worry, don’t worry, the baby will be fine in the future!" Even the mechanical voice of the assistant made Lin Xue feel it was comforting her.

"How do you know nothing will happen in the future?" Lin Xue detected something off in the assistant’s words.

Even if it was meant to comfort her, it couldn’t be so firm. There must be something going on.

"Because the supermarket space has already granted you the first child reward! If something happened to the baby, how could you have gotten the reward?" the assistant explained logically.

Lin Xue was taken aback, realizing that this space had a significant connection with her life. When she got married, the garage was opened; after getting pregnant, she received a reward.

"What reward?" Lin Xue asked excitedly.

"Go to the cashier and see for yourself!" The assistant teased.

Lin Xue hurried to the cashier to check.

But she saw nothing. She searched thoroughly back and forth but found nothing, leaving her frustrated as she looked up and asked the assistant,

"Where’s the reward? Why can’t I find it?"

"Boss, open your computer to see! The space has opened your assets from your past life! You can take them out and use them!" the assistant’s mechanical voice sounded again.

Lin Xue quickly opened her computer.

The next second, she was dumbfounded on the spot. Oh my, is this for real?

More than three million yuan from her past life savings were lying intact in her account. This is really...

She had opened the supermarket with a bank loan; does this mean she doesn’t have to repay it anymore?

"Boss? The bank has already seized your house for that loan. This is all that’s left of your savings!" The assistant seemed to read her thoughts and explained.

"How do I withdraw it then?" Lin Xue quickly asked, as it was just a string of numbers in the account, not tangible until taken out.

"Just click withdraw, and you’ll see the money the next day!" the assistant said.

Lin Xue eagerly went to operate, just as she was about to click to withdraw all of it, the assistant’s voice sounded again,

"Boss! With the arrival of your second baby, there will be more rewards. Trust me, leave some money in the account; you’ll definitely need it."

"Second child..." Lin Xue pondered. They were still so young, surely they would have more children, so she decided to take the assistant’s advice and leave some in the account, as in case it was needed later, she could always withdraw it.

"Then leave 1.23 million in the card and withdraw two million to use! I happen to need money to buy land and was thinking of selling a batch of goods. Now I don’t have to!" Lin Xue discussed with the assistant.

"Boss, leaving the odd twenty-something thousand should suffice, you can take out three million!"

Following the assistant’s advice, Lin Xue withdrew three million yuan. Now she had to wait for the money to appear in front of her tomorrow.

She was no longer surprised by such bizarre occurrences and had grown accustomed to it.

She wondered what the next reward might be. Just for having a child, she received over three million; surely the next reward wouldn’t be small either.

She just overlooked one thing—when did the cashier’s computer start working? She hadn’t even noticed it.

After walking around the supermarket a few times, her stomach didn’t feel so full, and she then left the space and lay down on the bed.

Before she could fall asleep, there was a knock on the door, "Sweetheart, are you asleep? It’s me!"

Zhang Yuan’s careful voice called from outside.

Lin Xue happily got out of bed and ran to open the door, "Honey, why are you back so soon?"

Zhang Yuan usually stayed at his own place if he worked late and wouldn’t come over to disturb her, but today he was back a bit early.

"Let’s talk inside!" Zhang Yuan entered the room with a bit of chill.

The spring weather was still a bit cold at night, but the chill made Lin Xue feel comfortable. Pregnant women usually have a slightly higher body temperature than normal people and tend to feel hot.

"Did you eat? Want me to whip up something?" Lin Xue closed the door, following him back into the room, and asked while looking at the man taking off his coat.

"Not hungry, I only want to hold you and sleep till kingdom come right now!" Zhang Yuan pulled her into his arms, "I’m so tired, so sleepy!"

Lin Xue felt a surge of tenderness, gently patting his back, "Go wash up, and I’ll make you some noodles! Once you’re done eating, we’ll go to bed!"

"Sweetheart, don’t bother with noodles, I’ll just grab something quick inside! You just lay on the bed and wait for me! I’m afraid you might accidentally get into trouble again!" Zhang Yuan was truly frightened, heart pounding as he recalled the incident, "I can’t bear to see you have another accident; you’d scare me to death!"

"It’s not that serious! If Zhang Ting hadn’t pushed me so hard and I wasn’t completely off-guard, how could I have been pushed over? Now I’m being extra cautious! Nothing will happen!" Lin Xue pouted.

They were raising her like a pig now, not just any pig but a handicapped one—she couldn’t even leave the house. If she did, several people would surround her as if she might disappear the next second, watchful looks on their faces.

She ate till she was stuffed every day, then they worried something might happen if she exercised, always wanting her to stay in bed and rest.

"Alright, alright! Be a good girl, sweetheart. Tomorrow, hubby will take you to see the first batch of electric bikes!" Zhang Yuan patted her head, "A new batch just came out! Though not many, it’s the first step to success! Want to go have a look?"

"Really? Does that mean our electric bikes are ready to be sold?" Lin Xue was extremely excited. She had so many electric bikes stored in the warehouse that there was barely any room left, driving her crazy.

"Not yet, not until the next batch, which will be identical to the ones in our space, is produced, and then they can be released. It’ll be foolproof this way!" Zhang Yuan shook his head.

Lin Xue was a little disappointed, but there was no other way, so she nudged Zhang Yuan, "Hurry and wash up! I’ll make you a self-heating pot to eat! Is that okay?"

"Okay! Let’s head in then, sweetheart! I’ll lock the door!"

So, the two headed back to the space, one to wash up, the other to make some delicious food. Although it wasn’t exactly healthy junk food, having it once in a while was nice.

Lin Xue felt like having some too, but thought about how she shouldn’t eat such junk food while pregnant. After an internal battle, she remembered the assistant’s words that the baby would no longer be in danger.

So she decided to indulge in it this time. After all, Brother Yuan didn’t know what she could and couldn’t eat, and as long as she wanted it, he wouldn’t object.

With that thought, she cooked two self-heating pots, grabbed some fizzy drinks meant for indulgent slobs, and took lots of their favorite deli foods from the cooked food section.

Thinking it over, since Brother Yuan hadn’t come out yet, she moseyed to the fruit section, picking out the durians, mangoes, and jackfruits she liked, all high-end fruits. She also took plenty of nuts, since it’s good for pregnant women to eat nuts, she figured she might as well, as she didn’t mind them at all.
