Help The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama (by Lotus Seeds) novel Chapter 563

Chapter 563: Chapter 529: Heir

Jia Lan casually took a book from the bookshelf and leisurely glanced through it. The young man’s figure was tall and straight, his fingers like jade, and just by sitting quietly, he became a stunning scenery.

The hall quickly settled into silence.

Jialouluo looked at her unusually silent son today, finding it quite strange.

In the past, this child was closest to her. Since marrying into the Night Glow Empire, mother and son rarely saw each other. After being apart for so long, one would think he’d long for more time with his Beast Mother, but it seems he’s forgotten his mother after having a Female Master.

Sitting down on a nearby sofa, she casually chatted, "Lan’er, you and Xiao Tang have been married for over two years now. Why is there still no movement?"

Jialouluo, who was usually cold and indifferent, had a teasing smile in her eyes when mentioning this topic.

Upon hearing this, the book in the young man’s hand dropped to the ground with a ’plop’, his handsome face flushed lightly, rare in his embarrassment, "Mother...why are you suddenly asking about this?"

"If I didn’t ask, were you planning never to bring it up?"

Even being an Emperor, one still has to worry about his son.

Jialouluo, born a noble royal female, never had to worry about such things. Regardless of how many husbands and concubines were by her side, the children were ultimately her own.

Jia Lan was her most beloved child, but it was a pity that he was a male, needing to serve one wife alongside other males.

Jialouluo had inquired about those Beast Husbands by Shen Tang’s side; each was extraordinary, with top-notch strength and talent.

Her youngest son seemed... really lacking in competitiveness.

If he ended up with no offspring, it would be truly pitiful.

Yet Jia Lan, on the surface cool and sharp-tongued, was sensitive and soft inside, purely shy about such matters. If she didn’t give him a nudge, he wouldn’t even know to compete, and he might really get nowhere in the future!

Jialouluo, as a noble female, knew too well which types of males were more easily favored. Males like Jia Lan, so arrogant, awkward, and passive, were the ones who often ended up with nothing!

Only her son’s face was exceptionally enchanting, or else, when Shen Tang’s harem grew, he might not even come to mind.

She couldn’t help but wish to admonish, "At your age, I already had four princes and one princess. Although you are a male, since you’ve married, you should consider these things."

Jia Lan lightly coughed, his face aflame with redness, "Mother, it’s too early to think about this, it’s not the right time... Besides, I don’t really want children right now."

He expressed concern, "Unlike deep-sea females, land females have a more difficult childbirth. I’ve even heard some mother beasts die from difficult labor... I don’t want Tangtang to suffer such pain."

Jialouluo said, "With the spread of pollution, offspring among various clans are withering, but the Sea Clan remains less affected due to our heavy emphasis on reproduction. Moreover, Xiao Tang is an Emperor and must have heirs to inherit. If you could have a child, it would definitely strengthen ties between our two countries."

"Tangtang is the best Female Master in the world, and furthermore the one my heart longs for. Being by her side is fulfillment enough..." Jia Lan’s expression softened, feeling a bit embarrassed, "But, if she wishes for children in the future, I will try my best."

Jialouluo listened to her son’s deep affection and couldn’t help but sigh, for she, as a mother, was never one to lean on emotions, having traversed countless lovers, yet gave birth to a love-struck boy.

Jia Lan, fearing he would be urged again, quickly changed the topic, "Mother must be busy dealing with those rebellious families, you must have a lot on your plate, how do you find time to visit?"

Jialouluo chuckled dismissively, "Ha, those rebellious families are just a ragtag bunch, supported by those mysterious black-clad figures. Without backing, they’re like a falling building, nothing to worry about."

She continued, "Mother has come this time to discuss something more important with you."

At this, Jialouluo’s tone turned much gentler, looking at the handsome and noble young man before her, her eyes were full of appreciation and satisfaction.

Previously, although she adored Jia Lan, she only regarded him as a beloved Prince, never having thought of entrusting the Sea Clan to him.
