I Found Myself Pregnant After Becoming An Omega 38

 

Chapter 38: Yearning For My Brother

 

He Family Mansion

 

When He Xiong was walking back from the garden after his morning exercise, he heard the soft cries of a child.

 

He frowned with his hands behind his back, his expression had a trace of disgust.

 

Last night, He Zhou brought home a child, saying that he had to help take care of the child for a few days.

 

Normally, it such a thing was not a problem. After all, their house had many empty rooms and plenty of servants. Not to mention taking care of an extra child, even if it were ten children, the He family could raise them all.

 

However, this child actually belonged to Ji Yu!

 

When He Xiong found out, he was so pissed off, he wanted to immediately beat up He Zhou.

 

If it weren't for He Jiao and the servants desperately stopping him, he would have sent that stinky boy He Zhou straight to the hospital bed, unable to move for the rest of the holiday.

 

How could any men be willing to raise the child of the person who cheated on them?

 

The more he thought about it, the more He Xiong felt angry.

 

He walked towards the dining room with a gloomy face, and just as he entered the door, he saw a figure already at the table.

 

It was his daughter, He Jiao.

Since it was the holiday, He Jiao had just woken up.

 

Her long hair was loose, and she only wore a headband. Her face was clean and without makeup.

 

She rested her chin on one hand and scooped a spoonful of porridge with the other.

 

However, the porridge never made it to her mouth. 

 

In fact, her eyes never fell on the food at all. 

They were all on that crying little imp!

 

"Ahem!" He Xiong took a big step into the dining room.

 

He Jiao was startled, and looked away. 

"Dad, good morning. Have you had breakfast?"

 

He Xiong: "Not yet. Let's eat together."

 

He Jiao smiled: "Okay."

 

He Xiong took his seat, picked up a small mung bean cake with his chopsticks and took a bite.

 

After a while, He Xiong had eaten two cakes, but he still didn't see any movement from He Jiao.

 

He raised his sharp eyes and found that although his daughter lowered her head and seemed to be eating breakfast seriously, her eyes had already moved to the side.

 

She was looking at that crying little imp again.

 

He Xiong frowned, put down his chopsticks, and looked towards the living room: "Why is he still crying?"

 

The nanny, standing next to the child, was so nervous that she was broke out in sweat.

 

She didn't know that one day she would be able to enter the general's mansion, and even saw the real general in the flesh. 

However, while this opportunity was really exciting for ordinary people, it also brought along a tremendous amount of pressure.

 

Hearing He Xiong's question, the nanny was so frightened that she hurriedly bowed her body and replied, "Xiao Yu Zhou misses his mother."

 

He Xiong frowned when he heard this, stopped eating breakfast, stood up, and went to the living room.

 

He Jiao was taken aback for a moment: "Dad?"

 

She also put down her chopsticks and followed behind her father.

 

He Xiong stretched out his hand, took Xiao Yu from the nanny’s arms, and lifted the child into the air.

 

Xiao Yu Zhou was taken aback by this sudden change. He stopped crying, raised his face to look at He Xiong, and blinked his big wet eyes twice.

 

"You are an Alpha, why are you crying?"

 

"An Alpha must always stand upright, and never cry!"

 

He Xiong had a straight face and a serious voice.

 

He Jiao persuaded from the side: "Dad, what does a child know? Let's just have breakfast and leave him alone, alright?"

 

He Xiong still frowned, and said in a stern tone: "It's too annoying to cry so early in the morning!"

Xiao Yu Zhou held his fingers in his mouth and tilted his head: "Ah?"

 

He stopped crying, but his eyes were still wet, and his eyelashes were clumps into strands, which made his eyes darker and brighter. Coupled with the red face from crying and the wet tear marks on his face, he was cute and pitiful.

 

The corners of He Xiong's eyes twitched: "Ah what?"

 

Xiao Yu Zhou held his fingers in his mouth for a while, then looked at He Xiong as if thinking of something, and shouted: "Gra~"

 

After shouting, his little hands and feet were raised together, and he shouted "gra" again.

 

He Xiong pursed his lips, and the corners of his eyes twitched even faster.

 

He Jiao spoke softly at the side: "Dad, he couldn't be calling you grandpa, could he?"   

 

He Xiong said coldly: "And what’s wrong with him calling me grandpa?"

 

He Jiao didn't say anything, just looked at the little baby and sighed.

 

"What are you sighing for?"

 

"If only it was really brother's child."

 

In the beginning, He Jiao was full of expectations for the birth of little Yu Zhou.

 

For a while, she had stopped all her extravagant shopping such as bags and cosmetics, and instead bought a bunch of necessities for children. She would have bought more, but she wanted to wait until the child was born to see what gender the child was before continue splurging.

 

In the end, she never had the chance to spoil the child.

 

He Xiong said: "Don't say that ever again."

 

"I know."

 

Xiao Yu knew nothing about the complex emotions of the two people in front of him.

 

He seemed to think it was fun to be lifted high, and begin enjoying himself. He lifted his two little feet up and down, and pushed his buttocks all around, shaking his arms as if he wanted to perform gymnastics on He Xiong's hands.

 

He Xiong looked at Xiao Yu for a while, and said to He Jiao: "You go to eat, I'll stay here and talk to him. Even if he doesn’t understand now, he can still listen to what I say. Children have to be educated from an early age."

 

He Jiao: "...Oh."

 

Dad, as long as you are happy.

 

He Jiao just turned around, when she saw the butler walking in from the front door.

 

The butler stopped in front of He Xiong and reported.

 

"Ji Yuan Sheng, the head of the Ji family, cordially invited Master and Young Miss to attend the opening ceremony of SA Global Century Mall on October 3rd. If you agree, a special car will come to pick you up in the morning."

 

As he spoke, the butler bent slightly and approached He Xiong's ear, lowering his voice to a whisper. 

"Mr. Ji also said that he knew that his grandson was a guest at our house, and to not bother with the child too much. It seems that he plans to take the child away..."

 

—

 

Ji Mansion.

 

In the dining hall, the atmosphere is quiet.

 

The dining table were full of many delicacies, but there was no sound of eating. Only Xue Zong's steady and gentle voice rang out from time to time.

 

Xue Zong is reporting to Ji Yuan Sheng on work-related matters.

 

The chopsticks in Ji Yu's hand had long since stopped moving, and his attention was all on business.

 

This report was about the opening ceremony of SA Global Century Mall on October 3rd.

 

SA Global Century Mall, one of Ji Yuan Sheng’s main real estate project, was completed a few months ago. 

This new mall is considered as one of the largest shopping malls ever built in Long Cheng City, and even in the country.

 

Not only will Ji Yuan Sheng be present at this opening ceremony, but so will all the most powerful people in the Long Cheng City.

 

In addition, several A-list celebrities has been invited to perform on the stage, causing public opinions to be teeming with hype.

 

This is also one of the reasons why Ji Yu came back.

 

If the perpetrator threatening him is truly one of He Zhou's friends, then they are all from Long Cheng City. There is a good chance they will either attends or watch this opening ceremony.

 

Ji Yu believed that the perpetrator dared to threaten him either because they knew of his previous fallout with the Ji family and thought that Ji Yu had been abandoned, or that they didn't know about Ji Yu's real identity at all.

 

Thus, Ji Yu’s plan is actually very simple. 

All he has to do is to show up at the opening ceremony, and stands next to Ji Yuan Sheng.

He wants to let the perpetrator hiding in the dark know that Ji Yu is Ji Yuan Sheng's son, and Ji's family is Ji Yu's backer.

 

It's easy to bully Ji Yu, but to mess with Ji Yuan Sheng?

 

Buddy, I advise you to think again.

 

While Ji Yu was busy scheming, Ji Yuan Sheng suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Ji Yu, "You also come to the SA opening ceremony on the 3rd."

 

Ji Yu nodded steadily: "Okay."

 

It’s just what he wanted.

 

Ji Yuan Sheng then looked at He Zhou, "I have invited your father and your family to attend. That morning, I will let Xue Zong come to pick you up."

 

He Zhou didn't agree immediately, and just smiled: "I see. I'll ask my father what he thinks when I get back."

 

Ji Yuan Sheng glanced at He Zhou and said nothing more.

 

The meal starts quietly and ends quietly.

 

Under the excuse of taking a walk to help with digestion, Ji Yu quickly dragged He Zhou back out into the garden.

 

Finally, Ji Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

 

Ji Yu asked, "When are you going back?"

 

He Zhou casually unbuttoned his cuffs and rolled them up: "You really want me to go?"

 

"Of course not, I feel a lot less nervous with you here."

 

Ji Yu thought for a while, "I guess part of it is my own fault. I really can’t think of these people as my family, so I felt very restrained. I didn't eat anything just now. If this keeps up, I might die of starvation."

 

He Zhou smiled: "Why don’t you just eat and not care about what other people thinks?"

 

"I know, but I just can't control it. I've been like this since I was a child. Whenever I go to other people's houses, I become super reserved and polite. I can’t help it."

 

After speaking, Ji Yu looked into the distance, and found a little path leading to a stable. Inside the stable were a few horses.

 

"There are horses?" There was a bit of surprise in his tone.

 

He Zhou: "Do you want to ride?"

 

"Why are you even asking? What kind of man doesn't want to ride a horse?"

 

Ji Yu's eyes sparkled, but he soon calms down, "I just don't know if these horses can be ridden."

 

He Zhou pointed to the bright sun in the sky: "What about the weather? It’s pretty hot for a ride."

 

Ji Yu’s eyes were still glued to the horses: "Just ride a couple of laps. At most, we’ll just get a tan, it doesn't matter."

 

He Zhou smiled: "Why don’t we go to my house instead."

 

Ji Yu looked up: "Your house?"

 

He Zhou nodded: "My house is not far from here."

 

He pointed in a certain direction, "It's only fifteen minutes by car, shall we go?"

 

Ji Yu hesitated.

 

He Zhou glanced at him, and said again: "It’s just a quick visit, and we can come back here before dinner. Besides, Xiao Yu is currently at my place, don't you want to go and see him?"

 

Ji Yu was very moved: "Can we go just like this?"

 

"The housekeeper will report it to Ji Yuan Sheng."

 

As he spoke, He Zhou simply grabbed Ji Yu's wrist, and directly pulled him away.

 

"You came back here to ‘visit’ your family. You are not a prisoner. No one is forcing you to stay here, and you are free to go wherever you like."

 

He Zhou’s words awakened Ji Yu: "You’re right."

 

Thinking about it, Ji Yu realized that he had been too caught up in the Ji family’s affairs.

 

Originally, Ji Yu had thought of his homecoming as an adventure.

 

He handed over Xiao Yu to He Zhou, make all the necessary preparations, and then entered the Ji Mansion as if it was some horror game dungeon.

 

Ji Yu had mentally prepared himself to stay here for 3 to 4 days, during which time he could not leave. He would brace the many dangers the Ji family throws at him, work hard to find clues, and figure out the truth to solve the many questions he has.

 

However, in reality, Ji Mansion is not a game.

 

And Ji Yu is actually free to leave.

 

The two notified the butler, and then left Ji Mansion by car.

 

Through the window of the car, Ji Yu watched the majestic and tall mansion gradually disappear.

 

After the Ji Mansion was no longer visible, Ji Yu lazily sank into the seat, sighed, and raised his thumb to He Zhou: "It's so comfortable being out of there. If only I can also go out tomorrow."

 

He Zhou shrugged his shoulders: "Of course."

 

Ji Yu smiled: "Could it be that you plan to come 'visit' tomorrow as well?"

 

He Zhou raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his lips curled up: "As long as you want."

 

Heart pounding, Ji Yu looked at He Zhou and blinked slowly.

 

After a while, he turned his eyes away, looked out of the window again, and said vaguely, "Let's talk about it tomorrow."

 

He Zhou took a deep look at Ji Yu, and replied, "Yes."

 

The car was quiet, and neither of them said anything.

 

Ji Yu lowered his eyes and tapped his fingers on the window sill.

 

Although he has never been in a relationship, he thinks that his emotional intelligence is not bad.

 

He Zhou’s actions of giving him information, helping to protect his child, and even coming to support him can all be called acts of brotherhood. 

Of course, when He Zhou is in trouble, he will also be willing to help.

 

But isn't the phrase "as long as you want" too indulgent?

 

Is this what a brother would say?

 

Ji Yu reached out and touched the glands on the back of his neck, it seemed a little hot.

 

Suddenly, images start to appear in his mind: He Zhou's powerful canine teeth, He Zhou's broad chest,  He Zhou's big...

 

Startled by a sound, He Zhou turned and looked sideway to find Ji Yu suddenly shaking his head and cursing something inexplicably. 

Then Ji Yu took out an inhibitor injection from the hidden pocket of his clothes.

 

"Are you on the verge of heat?"

 

He Zhou reached out and tapped the suppression ring on Ji Yu’s neck, "It's a normal value."

 

Ji Yu asked: "Is it really normal?"

 

If it's normal, why on Earth would he start ‘yearning’ for the body of his good brother?

 

Ji Yu shook his head, pulled off the cap of the inhibitor, exposing the thin needle inside.

 

"My mind is getting fuzzy, it's safer just to inject it."
