Pregnant Bunny, Obsessed Beast Husbands

Yu Zhizhi froze. ’What?’

She turned her head and met Louis’s deep, jade-green eyes. He lowered his voice. "I’ll find a ship and send you to the Deep Sea Empire, alright?"

During a break in the meeting, Yu Zhizhi could finally speak.

"R-Really?"

Louis’s expression soured. "Of course not!" he snapped.

Yu Zhizhi: "..."

Curious about everything related to the little rabbit, Louis had looked into her past. He naturally knew that she had kept a Mermaid back on Zero Star Street.

On the Beast World Planet, it was common for females to keep male companions.

Although Louis felt a weight in his heart, he didn’t dwell on it.

’So what if she liked him? Didn’t she cut ties with that fish in the end?’ The little rabbit had ultimately chosen to stay in the Moon Rising Empire.

In Louis’s eyes, the fact that she had risked her life to come to Paradise in search of Louis was proof enough of her deep feelings for him.

If she cared about Louis, then by extension, she cared about him.

Thinking this, Louis felt a little better.

The black Crow reminded him, "Leader, the alliance meeting is about to start."

Yu Zhizhi’s first instinct was to dive back under Louis’s long robes, but he caught her and placed her directly on the coffee table.

"This is an internal meeting. Just stay quiet. No need to hide."

’His little turtle had nothing to hide.’

This was a meeting between the two allied empires, with a total of three participants.

On the Moon Rising Empire’s side, besides the Paradise Lord, the Head Councilor of the Moon Rising Empire was also in attendance. The Valoran Empire sent only one representative—

Duke Bolan.

Rather than an alliance meeting, it was more like a private conference initiated by Duke Varolan.

The Head Councilor smiled warmly. "Good morning, Duke."

He looked through the video feed, then toward his own empire’s Lord of Paradise.

"Good morning, Lord Leader."

"It’s been a while, Head Councilor William," the Duke said, a hint of a smile in his voice.

The moment she heard the Duke’s voice, Yu Zhizhi shivered instinctively. She immediately retracted her neck and hid inside her turtle shell.

After some brief pleasantries, the Duke cut to the chase. "Our Empire’s esteemed S-Class female is currently trapped within the domain of Paradise. I ask that your nation cooperate in her rescue and secure her release as soon as possible."

The Head Councilor was shocked. "She entered Paradise? But we ran a check before and didn’t detect her signal."

The Duke’s tone was languid. "Before was before. Now is now."

The little rabbit’s presence had been exposed twice.

The Duke was certain she was in the central area of Paradise. ’She actually participated in this season’s hunting game.’

"Well..." The Head Councilor looked troubled. "The grounds of Paradise are vast. We’ve already done our utmost to search, but we simply can’t find her. Lord Leader, would you perhaps be able to help?"

"What female?" Louis asked, looking at the floating video screen.

The Head Councilor replied, "A female from the Rabbit Clan."

"Never seen one."

Louis had only ever seen a female from the Turtle Clan. ’What rabbit? Where would a rabbit come from?’

The old man paused for a second. The Leader’s reply had been too quick, as if he hadn’t thought about it at all.

Hearing them discuss her, a guilty Yu Zhizhi hid in her shell. She retracted her head and all four limbs, making her look like nothing more than a turtle shell ornament on the reddish-brown coffee table.

The Head Councilor cleared his throat.

"Duke, please be patient. Since this concerns Ms. Zhi Zhi, we will do everything in our power. However, there is another matter. Since we have this opportunity, let’s discuss it together."

’Ms. Zhi Zhi.’

Hearing this form of address, Louis shot a glare at the little turtle hiding in her shell.

He had always thought her name was Zizhi.

The *Zhi* of gardenias.

But it wasn’t.

Just as she had never been a little turtle, her name had nothing to do with gardenias, either.

The Snake Clan Duke leaned back in his armchair, crossing his legs. "I’m all ears."

The smile on the Head Councilor’s face grew even warmer. "It’s like this. As per His Majesty’s wishes, our Royal Family hopes to arrange a marriage with your country’s Ms. Zhi Zhi. The candidate has already been decided: our Moon Rising Empire’s most honored Crown Prince."

"Heh..." The Duke let out a soft chuckle. "Your scheming is so loud, I can hear it clearly from all the way over here."

The smile on the Head Councilor’s face didn’t waver. "For two great empires to form an alliance, a political marriage is the most stable and solid method."

"Although we are currently in a truce, the flames of war will ignite again in half a year. The Deep Sea Empire has wild ambitions, and they won’t rest until they achieve their goal. As for what that goal is, we all know perfectly well."

The Deep Sea Empire wants to expand its territory and become the sole hegemon on the Beast World Planet.

They are no longer satisfied with the Deep Sea and parts of the inland.

A power from the ocean seeks to control the entire planet.

"Duke, regarding the marriage alliance, I hope your nation will consider the bigger picture and think about this carefully." The Head Councilor’s attitude was exceptionally sincere. His hair was graying, but he was full of vigor.

He saw an inscrutable smile appear on the Duke’s face.

"There’s no need to consider. I agree to the marriage."

Yu Zhizhi froze.

Her little hidden turtle head couldn’t help but peek out a tiny bit.

’The Duke actually agreed to let her marry?’

’To the Crown Prince... of the Moon Rising Empire?’

A delighted expression spread across the Head Councilor’s face. "Then I will report this matter to His Majesty the King tonight! We will have a list of betrothal gifts drawn up by the day after tomorrow at the latest!"

Louis’s face darkened. He gritted his teeth. "I refuse!"

The Crow beside him nearly fell off the coffee table. It cawed frantically, hoping Leader Louis wouldn’t say anything reckless.

"...Lord Leader?" The Head Councilor clearly hadn’t expected the Paradise Lord to refuse the marriage alliance.

"Is the Crown Prince’s condition even suitable for marriage?" Louis glared menacingly at the Moon Rising Empire’s Head Councilor. He clenched his right fist, the anger in his voice palpable. "For something this important, why did no one bother to ask me?!"

The Head Councilor sounded aggrieved. "We did ask. We asked two months ago, and you agreed at the time."

The idea of a marriage alliance had been brought up two months ago.

They would certainly have to seek the Paradise Lord’s opinion.

They had asked long ago.

From the day the Rabbit Clan female arrived in the Moon Rising Empire, they had never intended to let her go back.

Louis snorted coldly. "Before was before. Now is now."

He was directly quoting the Duke.

The Head Councilor: "..."

The old man couldn’t help but pull out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead. "Then, Lord Leader, what you mean now is?"

Louis’s jade-green eyes were dark and deep. "I do not agree! If there must be a marriage, then she can marry me!"

The black Crow was shocked.

’AHHH! Lord Louis! Don’t take advantage of Master Spider’s absence to cause trouble! AHHH!’

’Who proposes a political marriage for themselves...?’

The Duke looked at the Moon Rising Empire’s Lord of Paradise. He had met the man a few times before, but this was the first time he had scrutinized him so closely.

The amusement in his golden, slitted pupils deepened. "I agree to the marriage, but the candidate must be changed. Our Valoran Empire’s one and only Princess is a perfect match for your Crown Prince, be it in age, personality, or status."

"As for this Rabbit Clan female you mentioned."

"She will not do." The Duke’s tone was irrefutable. "This Rabbit Clan Lady already has a marriage contract."
