Silver replied, “Alright, go prepare… Just do it according to An’an’s preferences and make a bigger portion.”
“Alright.”
At his order, the mermen instantly formed a team and left.
Considering the fact that An’an was injured, the food prepared by the mermen was very light in flavor—one portion of steamed seaweed and one portion of poached meat paste were brought to the depths of the sea while still hot.
When the food was sent to the stone cave, An’an had yet to regain consciousness. On the other hand, the baby was awake.
She was tiny and her skin wrinkly, her facial features had yet to develop. One couldn’t see any resemblance to An’an and Bluepool yet.
It was as if, just like the mermen had said, An’an only bred a female to replace herself because she was overly devastated.
This idea only lingered a moment in Silver’s mind before it dissipated. The fact that An’an was still alive went to show that the legend was unreliable. Their tribe would have two females.
Silver’s mood brightened, and he carefully carried the baby and scooped up some soup with a polished shell, before feeding it into the baby’s mouth.
Even though her eyes couldn’t quite open yet, and the way she had scarcely any breath left made it appear as if she would die at any moment, the instant the soup entered her mouth, she drank it.
Feeling a particularly great sense of achievement as he watched her, Silver fed her spoonful by spoonful.
It was only after he fed her half the bowl of soup that the baby’s mouth truly opened. Realizing that she actually had no teeth, Silver couldn’t help but worry. He hoped that female babies were all like that and that the teeth would grow out in the future.
“Mmm…”
Having also woken, An’an let out an imperceptible moan.
Silver immediately set down the child and helped her sit up.
“You’ve woken? You must be hungry. Eat something first.”
As he spoke, Silver brought over the food to feed An’an.
An’an didn’t have much appetite and only drank a few mouthfuls of soup before lying down to sleep again.
Shortly after, the baby started getting diarrhea and couldn’t stop crying, attracting the attention of the strong in their tribe.
“Leader, what’s wrong with the child? Wasn’t she fine a moment ago?” The mermen outside were gripped with anxiety.
Most able to sense the child’s fragility, Silver decisively ordered, “Hurry up and go ashore to look for a doctor. Bring more salt with you.”
“Alright.”
But the trip to and fro would take at least four to five days. Silver’s brows furrowed deeply, feeling that this baby might not survive if they were to just wait for the doctor.
Actually, he wasn’t overly upset, for he only needed An’an. It was just that An’an had gone through so much suffering to give birth to this child, thus he couldn’t bear for An’an to lose her.
Moreover, with this child around, perhaps he would be able to have An’an all to himself.
With such a thought in mind, Silver showered the child with even more meticulous care.
Afraid that the child would continue to have diarrhea, he stopped feeding her food and at most gave her some warm water to drink.
Thankfully, this stupid method was very effective, for the child’s diarrhea stopped that night.
However, she was entirely devoid of strength and slept with only a faint breath of life left, looking so feeble it led one to think she might become a corpse that no longer breathed the next day.
Silver didn’t dare to leave and kept guard by the stone cave at all times.
From the time An’an started giving birth until now, Silver hadn’t slept for nearly three days. After coaxing the child to sleep, he leaned against the stone wall to rest and fell asleep before he knew it.
Very soon, he was awoken by a noise and instantly opened his eyes.
“An’an?”
To his surprise, he saw An’an carrying the child, her clothes in an utterly disheveled state. With her snow-white bosom revealed, she was actually letting the baby bite her.
Silver’s first instinct was to carry the child away. An’an’s body language was a little resistant, but it wasn’t very obvious.
He carried the baby away from An’an. However, the baby’s toothless mouth had a tight suction on An’an. Due to being dragged away, a few drops of milky white substance dripped out from her mouth.
Silver was stunned.. With the baby in his arms, he froze for a good while before he finally realized what was going on and quietly placed the baby back in An’an’s arms.
