I Found Myself Pregnant After Becoming An Omega 36

 

Chapter 36: Homecoming

[He Zhou: Did you leave already?]

 

[Ji Yu: Yeah, just left.]

 

[He Zhou: Ok, I’ll contact you later.]

 

"You seem a little reserved."

 

Hearing this, Ji Yu raised his head and looked at the man sitting opposite him in the car—

 

The man was smiling, sitting gracefully, with his hands clasped in front of his chest.

 

His short black hair was brushed back, couples with a pair of rimless glasses and an exquisite suit made him look unspeakably refined and dignified, with an outstanding temperament.

 

This man is Xue Zong, Ji Yuan Sheng's confidant and right-hand man.

 

Last night, Ji Yu made his decision. He replied back to Wen Yu Wei, telling her that he would go back home for the holiday weekend.

 

He didn't know whether it was Ji Yuan Sheng or Wen Yu Wei who will come to pick him up, and he didn't ask either. In the end, it was Xue Zong who came to get him.

 

The original Ji Yu hasn't been back for so many years, and nobody knows how he is currently.

 

He Zhou had already provided a lot of background information, so Ji Yu doesn't have to worry about being exposed as long as he keeps his distance and behaves a little coldly.

 

"Is there anything you want to ask? You can ask me." This is the second time Xue Zong have said this.

 

Ji Yu thought for a while, "Is there anything I need to pay attention to when I go back?"

 

Xue Zong smiled gently: "There is nothing special to pay attention to. Mr. Ji is very tolerant, and Mrs. Wen is also very kind. Ji Heng may speak more directly, but you don't have to pay attention to him."

 

Ji Yuan Sheng is tolerant?

 

If Ji Yuan Sheng had been tolerant, would the original Ji Yu have fallen so far?

 

Ji Yu didn't say anything, he nodded and asked again: "Is there any forbidden place that I can't go in?"

 

Xue Zong replied: "No, you can go wherever you want."

 

"Okay, thank you." Ji Yu smiled back.

 

Ji Yu’s real purpose in going back to the Ji Mansion this time was mainly because he wanted to reclaim his identity.

 

The identity of being a member of the Ji family.

 

This will give him a strong family backing, not only to protect himself, but also to protect little Yu Zhou.

 

Besides, this is something that’s rightfully belongs to the original Ji Yu, so it’s not like he’s asking too much.

 

"Is there anything else you want to ask?" Xue Zong repeated for nth time.

 

"What about you?" Ji Yu raised his chin towards Xue Zong, "Is there anything I should pay attention to when interacting with you?"

 

The arc of Xue Zong's lips was even higher. He touched his glasses, and the eyes hidden behind the lenses were not very clear.

 

"You don't need to pay attention to me."

 

Ji Yu rested his chin with one hand and tapped his chin with his fingertips.

 

He looked straight at Xue Zong, turned away after a long time, and looked at the scenery outside the car window.

 

He couldn't see through the man in front of him.

 

From the first moment they met, Xue Zong seemed to be wearing a mask.

 

Although he was smiling and his tone was gentle and elegant, it didn’t reach the bottom of his heart.

 

Instead, it gave him an inexplicable sense of alienation and hypocrisy.

 

Intuition told Ji Yu to stay far away from this man.

 

He didn't say anything, and Xue Zong didn't say anything either.

 

Ji Yu felt that the atmosphere in the car was a bit awkward, but Xue Zong was able to handle it with ease.

 

He held a coffee in one hand, flipped through some work documents with the other, and occasionally circled something with a pen, all while having a calm expression on his face.

 

Xue Zong worked at a leisure pace, and didn’t stop until they reached their destination.

 

After the car came to a stop, Xue Zong finally looked up at Ji Yu:

 

"The housekeeper will take you to a room already prepared for you. Mr. Ji should still be at the company right now, and he usually comes back around noon. If you get bored, you can go to the garden. The garden is filled with beautiful blooming flowers this time of the year, I think you'll like it."

 

Ji Yu: "Okay, thank you."

 

Xue Zong smiled: "You're welcome."

 

The two got out of the car together and separated after getting off.

 

Seeing Xue Zong leave, Ji Yu heaved a long sigh of relief, he took out his mobile phone and sent a message to He Zhou—

 

[Ji Yu: I’ve arrived.]

 

[He Zhou: Got it.]

 

After he was done texting, Ji Yu wanted to laugh a little bit. He always felt that he and He Zhou were carrying out some secret plan, as if they were doing something shady.

 

In fact, they didn’t have plan at all.

 

He Zhou just felt that Ji Yu would buckle under pressure, so he wanted to keep in touch.

 

It turns out, He Zhou was kind of right.

 

He Zhou didn't ask Ji Yu to report in real time, but Ji Yu was so nervous that he couldn't help sending He Zhou constant updates, as if doing so would give him more confidence.

 

The butler leading the way extended his hand and signaled, "Young master, this way please."

 

Ji Yu put away his phone and followed quickly: "Okay."

 

After bypassing the fountain at the entrance, he followed the butler and entered the front door.

 

As soon as he entered, he saw a very young man sitting on the sofa to the left. The other party rested his chin on one hand, and his eyes were directly glaring at him.

 

Seeing that the young man, four words subconsciously popped up in Ji Yu's mind: You are not welcome.

 

The butler stopped and greeted the person on the sofa.

 

Ji Yu naturally also stopped.

 

The young man glanced at the things in the hands of the housekeeper, and said, "Go up and clean first."

 

After finishing speaking, he looked at Ji Yu and said, "Ji Yu, so we meet again. Care to chat?”

 

Ji Yu smiled, nodded and said hello, "Ji Heng."

 

"Talk for a bit?"

 

"Sure."

 

Ji Yu walked to the other side of the sofa and sat down without changing his face. He raised his eyes and looked at this half-brother of the same father.

 

Ji Heng is not particularly good-looking, he can only be described as delicate. However, thanks to the luxurious clothes he’s wearing and the imposing manner he learned from childhood, Ji Heng is still eye-catching.

 

Though……

 

He seemed very hostile to Ji Yu.

 

Ji Heng's tone was mocking: "It's been so many years, why did you suddenly decide to come back today?"

 

Ji Yu remained calm on the surface, but was slightly surprised in his heart.

 

Isn't it said that wealthy people are the best at hiding their emotions?

 

Why is this person’s expression and speech so straightforward? It’s almost as if Ji Heng was afraid that Ji Yu would not feel his hostility.

 

Ji Yu replied: "This is my home, I can come back whenever I want."

 

Ji Heng's eyes teased: "Didn't you swear at the beginning to sever ties with Dad? Didn't you rather die than come back?"

 

Ji Yu: "..."

 

Really, does this person even know how to talk properly?

 

Regardless, Ji Yu was ready with a confident answer: "At that time, I was still too young, and my words were just childish tantrum."

 

This was not an exaggeration.

 

The original Ji Yu left when he was only ten years old. He hasn’t even finished the third grade of elementary school yet, so it is not unreasonable to say that it is merely childish words.

 

Ji Heng paused for a moment, then laughed softly: "I used to think you are so stubborn, but it seems your resolve is nothing more than that, mediocre."

 

Ji Yu felt the sarcasm in Ji Heng's words. He retorted fiercely in his heart, but just nodded with unchanged expression:

 

"Yeah well, what am I supposed to do? I can’t eat resolve after all.”

 

“I’m not like you, living in a mansion, have countless servants, be the young master of a wealthy family, and be sought after by countless people.”

 

“How good is it to not lived such a tough life…” Ji Yu slowed down his speech and looked straight at Ji Heng, "I think you understand this better than I do."

 

Ji Heng was born out of wedlock, and both him and his mother was secretly raised by Ji Yuan on the side for ten years.

 

Wen Yu Wei endured being the secret mistress for a full ten years, and Ji Heng also had to endure being an illegitimate child for a full ten years.

 

At last, after waiting through ten years of shame, they finally could obtain everything with their head held high.

 

But the same doesn’t apply for Ji Yu.

 

All he had to do was just bow his head before Ji Yuan Sheng and admit his mistakes, and all would be forgiven.

 

Ji Heng's expression turned ugly: "Do you know what you're talking about?"

 

Ji Yu asked back, "What am I talking about?"

 

Ji Heng pursed his lips tightly, his eyebrows twisted and his eyes darkened.

 

He grabbed the sofa cushion under his hand with all his strength. However, as if remembering something, he quickly let go, and his face became much calmer: "You are quite good at talking."

 

"Yep." Ji Yu said impatiently, "Is there anything else you want to say? If not, I'll leave first."

 

Ji Heng laughed, with a little evil hidden in his eyes: "Where’s your child? Why didn't the child come back with you? Don’t you want to show it to Dad?"

 

Personal attacks are fine, but how dare he pull in the child?

 

Hearing this, Ji Yu looked at Ji Heng with some incomprehension: "I thought your skills would be higher."

 

"Huh?"

 

Ji Yu said again: "It looks like—it’s just that, mediocre."

 

As Ji Yu spoke, he tapped his temple with his index finger, and no longer concealed the contempt for Ji Heng in his eyes, "I suspect that you have something wrong with your brain. If you can’t speak properly, go get help."

 

Ji Heng suddenly laughed loudly: "No need."

 

He stretched out his index finger, pointed down, and stared at Ji Yu, "In this place, you can say whatever you want, and there is nothing to be taboo about. I can tell you very directly - I hate you and look down on you. I hate you very, very much."

 

Ji Yu: "..." All right, if you want it that way.

 

"Oh, I hate you too, and I think you're an idiot."

 

After saying that, Ji Yu rolled his eyes at Ji Heng, no longer interested in continuing the conversation, stood up and was about to leave.

 

The moment he turned around, however, Ji Yu saw someone sitting at the table by side of the door drinking coffee quietly.

 

That person was obviously an Alpha, even when he was sitting, his figure was tall and straight, with broad shoulders and back.

 

He was dressed in white, wearing a pair of glasses, with slightly long curly hair, slightly brown in color, and looked gentle and affectionate in the light. He picked up his coffee and took a sip.

 

Acting as if he hadn't heard anything, and he glanced at them strangely.

 

Ji Yu immediately recognized him.

 

Ji Yuan Sheng.

 

The original Ji Yu’s biological father.

 

Ji Yuan Sheng said, "Why don’t you say anything?"

 

Ji Yu just stood where he was, staring at Ji Yuan Sheng blankly.

 

His mind was already filled with "Fuck" and "Ji Heng pitted me."

 

Didn’t Xue Zong say that Ji Yuan Sheng should be in the company at this time?!

 

Seeing Ji Yu looking at him motionless, Ji Yuan Sheng looked puzzled: "Don't you know me?"

 

Ji Yu: "..."

 

Ji Yuan Sheng put down the coffee, and said again: "Why didn't you bring the child back for me to see? I really want to know this question."

 

Ji Yu was still a little dazed.

 

Ji Yuan Sheng just turned 40 this year, but he still looks very young. He has an outstanding appearance, kind of gentle handsomeness, without a hint of hostility.

 

He looks more like an artist with a paintbrush in hand, instead of what he really is, a tycoon ruthless in revenge and decisive in killing.

 

Ji Yu finally came back to his senses, and give a low cough to cover up his panic, "It’s just that I haven't been back for so many years, I... want to come back and have a look first."

 

Ji Yuan Sheng: "Now that you’ve take a look, will you bring him here?"

 

“……”

 

"I'd love to meet him."

 

Ji Yu was stunned, not knowing how to answer.

 

The information He Zhou gave him only said that Ji Yuan Sheng had an eccentric temperament, but it didn't say how.

 

Now Ji Yu had finally figure it out. It could be said that, like Ji Heng, Ji Yuan Sheng was not tactful at all!

 

These two father and son, playing straight ball like crazy, how can this be possible?

 

Ji Yuan Sheng: "If you have something to say, just say it."

 

Ji Yu thought for a while, and said: "...Then I will bring him with me next time I come."

 

"Where is the child now? Let Xue Zong pick him up."

 

Ji Yu: "..."

 

Ji Yu finally felt what it means to be left speechless.

 

He didn't want Ji Yuan Sheng to see little Yu Zhou, so he deliberately didn't take the child with him, but the current situation caught him off guard.

 

Ji Heng came over: "He’s afraid we will harm it."

 

Ji Yuan Sheng glanced at Ji Heng, then said to Ji Yu: "Highly unlikely, I have no need to harm it."

 

Ji Yu was completely bewildered.

 

He had to repeatedly convinced himself that this was the original Ji Yu’s father.

 

Did ‘Father Ji’ really not care at all about his scolding battle with Ji Heng and how he called Ji Heng stupid?

 

Just as Ji Yu was thinking, he heard Ji Yuan Sheng spoke up first. 

" I heard that you were only pregnant for five months?"

Lyrus: Ah, I wonder if the Ji family were what you expected? Quite frankly, I think them being slightly off is much more terrifying than the normal intimidating routine...  ( ⚆ _ ⚆ )
