I Found Myself Pregnant After Becoming An Omega 44

 

Chapter 44: Divine Teammate

 

Ji Yu broke out in cold sweat.

 

The wind from the air conditioner passed by his neck, bringing with a chill that seemed to seeped into his skin.

 

Ji Yu clenched his hands and his heart suddenly sank.

 

Ji Yuan Sheng made no secret of his determination to capture little Yu Zhou, and even blatantly cut off Ji Yu’s contact to the outside world.

 

Ji Yu’s voice barely managed to remain calm: "Why do you want to see him so much?"

 

Ji Yuan Sheng looked at Ji Yu and chuckled, "Why don't you want me to see him so much?"

 

The air suddenly fell into dead silence.

 

In two sentences, they revealed each other's thoughts.

 

The young man’s eyelashes trembled, and a drop of cold sweat slid down the back of his neck, instantly absorbed by the clothes.

 

Ji Yu breathed out gently, raised his eyes, and stared at Ji Yuan Sheng with dark eyes.

 

"What do you want to do after you bring him back?"

 

"Do you think I will harm him?"

 

Ji Yuan Sheng shook his head slowly, "I wouldn’t, and how do you know that—"

 

His words paused, and his eyes, hidden behind thin lenses, were fixed on the young man’s pale face.

 

Ji Yu’s fingers twitched, but he said nothing.

 

"—that I’m not planning to train him to be my heir?"

 

Ji Yu immediately glanced at Xue Zong.

 

Xue Zong lowered his eyes slightly, but his expression remained unwavering. He continued to review and edit the documents in hand, one page at a time, as if he hadn't heard anything.

 

He was extremely calm.

 

Inside the car, only the occasional sound of pen scratching on paper could be heard.

 

Ji Yu suddenly let go of his clenched hands and said softly: "Is that so?"

 

Ji Yuan Sheng raised his eyebrows, and his long fingers stretched out to grasped the silver snake head on the top of his black cane. He casually rubbed the sharp snake fangs twice with his thumb, "You don't need to be so nervous."

 

Because it’s useless to be nervous?

 

Ji Yu sneered in his heart, looked away, and didn't reply.

 

He began to mentally calculate the cost of breaking ties Ji Yuan Sheng, but after thinking about it, he could only hold it back for now.

 

The gap between him and Ji Yuan Sheng was too big.

 

One was a business tycoon with wide connections, while the other was a student who had not yet graduated from high school with a young child.

 

If Ji Yuan Sheng really wanted to harm Ji Yu, it was a mere flick of his finger.

 

Since Ji Yuan Sheng is still willing to put on a show of “family,” Ji Yu doesn't have to take things too seriously, otherwise it would be himself who suffers.

 

The tip of Ji Yu’s tongue pressed against the inner wall of his mouth, and his eyebrows frowned slightly.

 

This feeling of being suppressed and beaten is really infuriating.

 

However, the fire in Ji Yu’s heart is not the most important thing.

 

The most important thing right now is—

 

Little Yu Zhou.

 

The car is getting nearer and nearer towards He Mansion.

 

The surrounding white wall is getting bigger as the two majestic stone lions at front door come into view.

 

Seeing the familiar mansion, Ji Yu’s mind kept spinning scenarios and solutions that could help him out of this bind.

 

Unfortunately, the more he thought, the heavier his heart sank. In all the scenarios he imagined, there was no way out, and Ji Yuan Sheng succeeded in taking little Yu Zhou.

 

Ji Yuan Sheng’s action is too reasonable.

 

A grandpa that only want to see his grandson, what’s wrong with that?

 

Even if Ji Yu goes out of his way to disapprove of this meeting, Ji Yuan Sheng, as Ji Yu’s biological father, can take both Ji Yu and little Yu Zhou away forcefully.

 

“I disciplined my son who became pregnant before marriage, and then took his illegitimate child back.”

 

Ji Yuan Sheng had the perfect excuse.

 

As for He Zhou, even if Ji Yu managed to contact him now, it wouldn’t be of much use.

 

The person who makes the decision in the He family is He Zhou’s father, He Xiong.

 

Ji Yu has no position or right to ask Father He to protect himself or little Yu Zhou.

 

He Zhou naturally has to listen to his father, and Father He would never tolerate his son getting cuckold...

 

Ji Yu closed his eyes with a headache.

 

Before he could think of anything, the car stopped.

 

Ji Yu suppressed the anxiety in his heart and followed Ji Yuan Sheng out of the car with a forced calm expression.

 

The air is filled with scorching sunlight and the buzzing sound of cicadas.

 

As soon as they got out of the car, the heat hit their faces. However, Ji Yu didn’t feel hot at all, his body still felt chills. 

 

"Don't worry too much, nothing will happen."

 

A gentle male voice sounded nearby.

 

Ji Yu looked sideways and saw Xue Zong, who still had his usual gentle smile.

 

Really? It’s gonna be ok, just because you said it’s ok?

 

Ji Yu ignored the man and looked away.

 

To be honest, he didn't have a good impression of Xue Zong.

 

Ji Yu always felt that this man was very similar to Ji Yuan Sheng. His temperament was gloomy and cold, like a snake hiding in the shadow waiting for an opportunity to strike. No matter how pretty he smiled or how gentle he spoke, it cannot cover up his sinister and dangerous aura.

 

It would be better for Ji Yu to have less contact with this person.

 

The He family’s guard went inside to report, and the group of people stood at the door waiting.

 

Ji Yu looked at the stone lions, and then looked through the door into the house.

 

He took deep breaths, clenched his thin white fingers, before loosening them again. His lips pursed tighter and tighter, and his heart beat faster and faster.

 

Just as Ji Yu’s heart was about to explode, He Jiao, wearing a red dress, walked out surrounded by the He family’s housekeeper and servants.

 

Ji Yu was stunned.

 

Why was He Jiao the one to come out and greet them?

 

He Jiao had long disheveled hair, clean eyebrows, and no makeup. Although she was wearing a bright red dress, it made her look pale, weak and sickly.

 

She was not wearing any jewelry or ornaments, not even perfume. It was as if she had no idea that they would be coming, and did not have enough time to get ready.

 

"Uncle Ji, why are you here?"

 

Arriving at the front door, He Jiao gave a simple greeting before turning to the housekeeper beside her and scolded, "How could you let our guests wait outside? Shouldn’t you have invited them in first? Uncle Ji, please come in."

 

Ji Yuan Sheng smiled: "No need, I just came here for a small matter. Where is your father?"

 

He Jiao: "Something suddenly happened in the military department last night. Dad went out without saying anything and he hasn't come back yet."

 

Ji Yuan Sheng asked softly, "Is your brother here?"

 

Ji Yu held his breath and his heart began to accelerate again.

​

However, different from the nervousness before, what he was feeling now was… excitement.

 

Ji Yu had an inexplicable premonition in his heart – things seemed to be tilting in his favor.

 

He Jiao shook her head and replied: "My brother is not at home either. He took the child to the hospital for a check-up."

 

“The child,” of course, refer to little Yu Zhou.

 

In other words - He Zhou and little Yu Zhou are not here!

 

Not here!

 

A huge boulder fell to the ground instantly, and Ji Yu’s tense nerves suddenly relaxed.

 

Ji Yu lowered his eyes, clenched his hands, and had to press his lips tightly to suppress the cheers in his throat.

 

What kind of magical teammate is He Zhou? Ah? What kind of peerless teammate this?

 

So fucking awesome!

 

Hurray for He Zhou!

 

A giant call for He Zhou! ^*

 

He Zhou, you sweet man, what are you some kind of prophet?!

 

Stop the problem before it even begins! What a magical move! How divine!

 

Ji Yu's chest rose and fell several times before he managed to calm down.

 

He Jiao gave Ji Yu a quick glance before turning back to Ji Yuan Sheng.

 

"Uncle Ji, don't you know? My father asked Uncle Liang to go to the opening ceremony on his behalf. Ji Yu knew about this since he was at our house yesterday, I thought he would have already conveyed it to you."

 

"As for the child, he was feeling a little unwell last night, so Ji Yu didn't take him back. This morning, when my brother took the child to the hospital he should already notified Ji Yu. Didn’t Ji Yu tell you anything?"

 

Ji Yu was stunned for a moment when his name was suddenly mentioned.

 

He quickly reacted and nodded nervously after meeting Ji Yuan Sheng's gaze.

 

"Ah, yes, I do about know both of these things. I went back too late yesterday and didn't saw you, so I thought I'd tell you this morning, but as soon as I woke up, I… completely forgot about it.”

 

"He Zhou also told me about the child’s sickness, but I thought it was normal for children to have headaches and fever, so I didn't bother mentioning it. It's my fault, I'm sorry."

 

After saying that, he lowered his head and looked ashamed, but he was shouting loudly in his heart—

 

It doesn't matter! Give me the blame!

 

Blame all of it on me! I shall take it all!

 

Ji Yuan Sheng's smile visibly shrunk, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.

 

He stared at Ji Yu indifferently, then turned back to He Jiao and said warmly: "It's okay. Since it's such an unfortunate coincidence, I'll come visit you again next time."

 

He Jiao nodded: "Goodbye, Uncle Ji."

 

Ji Yuan Sheng: "Hmm, I will send someone to pick up my grandson later. He has been imposing on your family for a while now, which is not good. I shall give your father my thanks the next time I visit."

 

After saying that, he nodded at He Jiao and turned back.

 

The moment he turned around, the raised corners of his lips fell back into a straight line, and his smiling eyes became gloomy. He walked away holding the snake-headed stick without looking back.

 

Ji Yu still lowered his head, watching the pair of shiny and reflective leather shoes pass by, feeling a thrill in his heart.

 

He quickly spoke to Ji Yuan Sheng departing back, "I still have something to say to He Jiao, how about...you go on first? I’ll ride with Ji Heng."

 

Ji Yuan Sheng kept walking: "Ji Heng, wait for him here."

 

Then he looked at Xue Zong, "You stay with Ji Heng."

 

Xue Zong nodded: "Yes."

 

Ji Heng let out an "Oh" unhappily, and looked at Ji Yu, "I'll get in the car first, you can get in after you’re done."

 

Ji Yu nodded.                             

 

Only after Ji Yuan Sheng’s car drove away, did Ji Yu stepped forward and said sincerely to He Jiao: "Thank you."

 

He Jiao frowned and looked away: "No need."

 

She still didn't like Ji Yu, and her tone was obviously impatient, "If you have something to say, just tell my brother. I don't want to hear it. It's too hot, I'm going back in."

 

Ji Yu nodded: "Okay, see you."

 

He Jiao glanced at him, turned around and left.

 

Ji Yu looked back at the only car left in the driveway, thought for a while, and took out his mobile phone from his pocket.

 

The signal is full and the network is connected.

 

[Ji Yu: Where are you?]

 

[He Zhou: Home.]

 

Home? This man is really bold.

 

Ji Yu looked up at the house not far away and continued typing—

 

[Ji Yu: Where is Yu Zhou?]

 

[He Zhou: With me. Are you still going to the opening ceremony?]

 

Seeing this reply, Ji Yu was completely relieved.

 

"She's already gone in, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and get in the car!" Ji Heng rolled down the window with an impatient look on his face.

 

Ji Yu gave his brother a glanced, and replied to He Zhou as he walked toward the car: [Go].

 

Ji Yuan Sheng had deliberately left two people waiting for him, so Ji Yu had no choice but to go.

 

Since he was forced to go, there may be a chance to take advantage of the situation, and his visit to Ji family wouldn't be in vain.

 

Moreover, Ji Yuan Sheng couldn't do anything to him in public. With so many media outlets, and so many pairs of eyes, he would be very safe.

 

Ji Yu got into the car, but before he could sit down, Ji Heng said, "Sit over there."

 

After looking at the two people sitting side by side, Ji Yu obediently sat down in the empty seat on the other side.

 

He took out his phone and it still had perfect signals.

 

It seemed that only Ji Yuan Sheng's car was equipped with a signal shielding device, specifically to target him. Unfortunately, even after scheming for so long, Ji Yuan Sheng’s plan ultimately failed at the last minute thanks to Ji Yu’s most excellent teammate.

 

Haha.

 

Ji Yu raised the corner of his mouth. Thinking of Ji Yuan Sheng's deflated appearance just now, he felt very refreshed.

 

At this time, his phone beeped, and several new messages popped up on the screen—

 

[He Zhou: I will go there as well. Contact me via WeChat then. I will take you away as soon as the ceremony is over.]

 

[He Zhou: Leave the rest to me.]

 

Ji Yu stared at these two messages for a while, then moved his fingers, deleted all the messages, and replied—

 

[Great.]

 

---

 

In a certain room, the air conditioner blew cold air.

 

He Zhou put one hand in his pocket and stood upright by the window. He lowered his eyes slightly, looked at the reply on the screen, then raised his head and his eyes fell on the black car that was driving away.

 

Not far from He Zhou, a small mattress was spread on the floor. On it, a round meat dumpling was concentrating on putting together blocks, as well as babbling and making childish sounds from time to time.

 

A nearby drawer was opened and the sound of keys jingled.

 

Little Yu Zhou, who was putting together building blocks, heard the noise, and his dark eyes immediately looked at the thing in He Zhou's hand: "Yah!"

 

He Zhou shook the key: "You can't play with this."

 

He passed by little Yu Zhou, bent down, and stroke the child’s soft black hair, "I'm going to go pick up your mother now."

 TN:

* 为你打call! (A giant call for you!) 

The word "call" originated from the concert live support culture. It was originally a dance or cheering action performed by otakus or idol supporters, which included jumping, clapping, waving arms and chanting slogans rhythmically. Now it has become a popular term on the domestic Internet, meaning to support and cheer. In many cases, it can also be extended to mean encouragement, and endless praise.

 

Ex:

What Ji Yu said: A giant call for you!

What Ji Yu mean: AHHHH!!! HE ZHOU!!! AHHHHH!!!
