Looking at the awe and shock in the eyes of the guards, Lin Fei felt incredibly satisfied.

A stone lion weighing over five hundred catties had been lifted by him just like that.

"This stone lion has some weight to it; the four of you couldn't even budge it. What a bunch of useless trash!"

"You all need to train more!"

Lin Fei held the stone lion above his head before placing it back in its original spot, looking completely at ease.

After some testing, Lin Fei realized that this was not yet his limit.

A single Body Strengthening Pill had increased his physical strength several times over.

Although Lin Fei was happy, he did not become arrogant or conceited because of it.

He only possessed greater strength; he knew absolutely nothing about martial arts techniques.

If he were to encounter a true cultivator, he wouldn't even be able to withstand a single blow.

On Earth, a heavyweight boxing champion could throw a punch with a force of four hundred to eight hundred kilograms.

Some ordinary people who frequently performed heavy manual labor could also carry weights of four or five hundred catties.

Take Lin Fei's father, for example; every year during the wheat and corn harvest, his father could carry dozens of bags, each weighing over two hundred catties.

Lin Fei had tried it once himself, carrying two bags, and ended up panting for breath and throwing out his back.

"With my current physical strength, I've already surpassed world-class weightlifters."

"If I could learn some techniques, my punching power would surely be even more terrifying than a champion's."

"I wonder how terrifying the strength of those in the Qi Refining Realm must be?"

Through that one Body Strengthening Pill, Lin Fei deeply felt the terrifying nature of cultivators.

"I wonder how much my prowess in bed has increased?"

Lin Fei couldn't wait to test it out, but Peach Blossom was pregnant, so strenuous exercise was not suitable.

As for places like brothels, someone as self-respecting as Lin Fei would never go there.

If it were just to drink, listen to music, and watch dances, that would be another matter.

Lin Fei returned to Earth, put away the remaining pills, and then took a trip to the supermarket.

He bought some snacks and fruits suitable for pregnant women, went to a mall to buy some beautiful clothes, and then returned to Nanli City.

Seeing Lin Fei return with so many gifts, Peach Blossom was overjoyed.

"Husband, what are these?"

"Such a large one, and it has so many thorns!"

Lin Fei had bought a durian, a tropical fruit not found in Nanli City.

"This is a fruit called a durian. Don't let its hard exterior fool you; the flesh inside is sweet, soft, and creamy. Let me open it for you to try."

Lin Fei pried open the durian shell, took out the flesh, and handed it to Peach Blossom.

Peach Blossom took a bite, and the flavor, which she had never experienced before, delighted her.

"It's so delicious, I've never had anything like it. Husband, you should try some too!"

"Haha, I can't eat it. This fruit has a quirk: some people find it sweet and fragrant, while others find the smell so foul they can't swallow it. I happen to be the latter."

Lin Fei used to buy durians for Ma Weiwei, who would always eat them with great relish, but when Lin Fei tried it once, he nearly vomited.

Xinghua stood to the side, smelling the aroma of the durian, and kept swallowing her saliva in temptation.

For the sake of her taking care of Peach Blossom, Lin Fei broke off a piece for her.

"Xinghua, this is a reward for you."

Xinghua was overjoyed and quickly called out, "Thank you, Brother-in-law!"

She took a bite, her face also filled with enjoyment.

"Sister Peach Blossom, you are truly so blessed. Brother-in-law didn't just bring back such delicious fruit this time, but also so many beautiful clothes for you."

The clothes Lin Fei brought back were all in the style of Earth.

To Peach Blossom and Xinghua, they looked incredibly novel.

"Peach Blossom, you can wear these clothes at home, but don't wear them outside."

Lin Fei was afraid that these clothes would attract too much attention if worn out, which was why he cautioned Peach Blossom.

"Next time I go out, I'll bring you other delicious things."

"Thank you, Husband!"

Peach Blossom nestled into Lin Fei's arms, her face filled with happiness.

The night grew deep, and the maids and servants had all gone to rest.

Lin Fei and Peach Blossom fell asleep in each other's arms.

Peach Blossom woke up in the middle of the night, feeling something prodding her belly, which was quite uncomfortable.

She didn't wake Lin Fei, but reached out to touch it, only to pull her hand back immediately, her pretty face flushing red.

She was all too familiar with this object, yet it seemed even more formidable than before, making her find it hard to believe.

She thought to herself, if her husband were like this every night without any release, it must be very difficult for him.

The next morning, after breakfast, Lin Fei accompanied Peach Blossom for a slow stroll in the garden.

Peach Blossom suddenly spoke up, "Husband, why don't you take a concubine?"

"Huh?"

Lin Fei was stunned; he hadn't expected Peach Blossom to bring up such a matter out of the blue.

"Peach Blossom, why would you say that?"

"A woman must carry a child for ten months before giving birth. I am not even two months along yet, and I fear you have been suffering through the nights, so..."

As a woman born and raised in Nanli City, in her eyes, taking a concubine for one's man was the most normal thing in the world.

Lin Fei had not been without thoughts of enjoying the blessings of multiple wives.

But with Peach Blossom pregnant, Lin Fei feared hurting her feelings, so he had never considered such a thing.

Now that Peach Blossom had brought it up herself, Lin Fei felt that this girl was not only considerate and understanding, but also a bit foolish.

"If I were to take a concubine, aren't you afraid of losing my favor?"

Peach Blossom lowered her head and replied, "I am naturally worried, but if you have me in your heart, no matter how many wives or concubines you take, you will not neglect me."

"If you do not have me in your heart, even if I were the only one in the house, you would still go out seeking flowers and chasing willows. It is better to just take a concubine; having a sister to look after you with me would put my mind at ease."

Hearing this reasoning from Peach Blossom, Lin Fei found it surprisingly logical for a moment.

Back on Earth, although marriage was monogamous, infidelity and cheating were everywhere.

"Heh, you certainly have an open mind. But if you want me to take a concubine, I don't have anyone in mind right now. I can't just go out on the street and buy one, can I?"

Peach Blossom hesitated for a moment before asking tentatively, "Husband, what do you think of Xinghua?"

"Her?"

Although Lin Fei was a man who appreciated beauty, he truly had never had any thoughts about Xinghua.

"You want her to be my concubine?"

"Mm, I chat with Xinghua often, and she frequently asks about your preferences. I can tell that this girl has feelings for you."

Although Peach Blossom was kind-hearted, she was no fool.

She had long since realized that Xinghua was not content with merely being a maid by her side.

After all, they had grown up together like sisters and knew each other inside and out.

If Xinghua were to become Lin Fei's concubine, she would be able to accept it.

Lin Fei, however, waved his hand and politely declined.

"Let's just forget it; I don't have those kinds of thoughts toward her. If it were only to relieve my loneliness, wouldn't that be a grievance to her?"

"We shall speak of taking a concubine another day."
