Quick transmigration: he likes being a father

4. 21 to 26

Yang Yan deliberately did not mention where he was currently living to his friends. However when he went out to eat or play, he stopped going the same way as everyone else when they separated. A friend casually asked Yang Yan if he changed his living place. Yang Yan replied that he moved to the house he bought that was outside the school.

"Didn't you say before that you weren't used to living there? Why did you move back?" The friend Cao Mingyong still remembered this matter. In the beginning, he went to live in that house for two days, so his memory of this was quite deep.

"It's almost the final exam. I'm staying there to review." Yang Yan lied without any effort at all.

No one believed this explanation of his.

Cao Mingyong sized up Yang Yan: "There can't be something or a certain someone…" There were some hidden meanings in his words.

Yang Yan did not refute. The expression on his face even seemed to admit Cao Mingyong's guess.

Later, Cao Mingyong talked to other people and learned that Yang Yan has been recently coming late and returning early. It was obviously because there was someone beside him, hooking him completely..

This circle was only so big. The story of Yang Yan being bewitched reached Xie Chengzhou within two days. Xie Chengzhou didn't come out and play with everyone these days because he had to deal with a matter.

When he learned that Yang Yan had moved to the house outside the school, Xie Chengzhou, as one of the insiders of this matter, almost instantly guessed who was the person that captured Yang Yan's heart.

This was very easy to guess, basically without any difficulties. But for Xie Chengzhou, although he hasn't seen Xu Ze for some time, his interest has not diminished at all.

Xie Chengzhou found a boy that looked a little similar to Xu Ze. That boy even followed Xie Chengzhou. Xie Chengzhou didn't really sleep with the boy though. He was just a fake. He found him only to relieve his greed. He wanted even more to get and own the original and not just some stand-in.

The time when Xu Ze bore the child should be September and now it was almost December. Calculating according to the time, it should be three Ze's belly should probably have the sign of protruding a little. However, this season's weather was cold. Everyone was wearing thick clothes. Especially when the loose down jacket was put on the body, even an eight to nine months pregnant stomach might not be so visible. Xie Chengzhou still wanted to see Xu Ze again though.

Xie Chengzhou and Yang Yan were friends. They were in one circle, so they also had mutual friends.

Cao Mingyong got in touch with Xie Chengzhou one day. He asked some people for a picnic on the mountain during the weekend and asked if Xie Chengzhou had time to go.

Xie Chengzhou didn't first say whether he was free or not, but asked who Cao Mingyong had invited. When he heard Yang Yan's name, Xie Chengzhou was suddenly a lot more interested.

"Wasn't it said that Yang Yan has been hiding someone recently? It seems like quite a number of people are curious. Maybe you should go talk to Yang Yan and ask him to bring his treasure along?" Xie Chengzhou deliberately proposed for Cao Mingyong to go ask Yang Yan.

Cao Mingyong was actually quite curious. He was curious about what kind of character could capture Yang Yan's heart.

"You don't say, I really do want to meet him." Cao Mingyong didn't know that Xie Chengzhou actually knew Xu Ze. Even in their group there were a few that knew Xu Ze.

After talking to Xie Chengzhou on the phone, Cao Mingyong immediately called Yang Yan again. He didn't mention Xie Chengzhou on the phone and he didn't beat around the bush. He just asked Yang Yan to bring Xu Ze out, not let the person stay at home all day and come out to feel the winds when they have time.

Cao Mingyong talked in a joking tone. He actually was not that confident. If Yang Yan really held that person tightly and refused to bring them out, then being friends, Cao Mingyong would have his own limits and would not go too far.

But to the surprise of Cao Mingyong, Yang Yan directly agreed.

Yang Yan replied: "En, I will bring him along when the time comes." Choosing to bring Xu Ze with him was not to take Xu Ze to his friends to see each other like showing some sort of commodity. Instead, it was when Yang Yan heard the one line Cao Mingyong said, "Come out and feel the winds when you have time." Xu Ze's stomach was currently bearing a child, so he needed to appropriately go out and walk sometime.

Going for a picnic outside, finding a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters, getting closer to nature, and breathing fresh air. Yang Yan thought it should be good for Xu Ze's body.

And so he agreed.

As soon as Yang Yan agreed, Cao Mingyong sent a message to Xie Chengzhou and said it was done.

Xie Chengzhou raised his head after he saw the text message. Next to him was the delicate and pretty boy who looked like Xu Ze. Xie Chengzhou beckoned him and the boy moved and leaned over like a small animal.

Pinching the boy's chin, Xie Chengzhou smiled and said, "I'll take you to meet someone in two days."

The boy's expression was obedient as he asked in a low voice, "Meet who?"

"It's the person that you look like." Xie Chengzhou's eyes contained a smile in it, but that smile made people get little goosebumps.

The boy pursed his lips and didn't dare to speak again.

"I'm guessing you'll be happy to meet him. Since you wouldn't have even been able to get to my side otherwise." Xie Chengzhou let go. He was not interested in the boy. He only liked the boy's face ever so little, that's all.

The boy's eyes drooped and his fingers bent. His eyelids concealed the anxiety and tension under them. He knew from the beginning that Xie Chengzhou didn't like him, but got together only because he looked like a certain someone.

But Xie Chengzhou also told the boy clearly that he liked obedient and untroublesome types. The underlying meaning was that the boy shouldn't ask what he shouldn't. The boy has always been curious about that person and now he finally has a chance to meet the person he looks like. But the boy was worried whether Xie Chengzhou would let him leave after meeting each other. Xie Chengzhou looked handsome, was very generous, and also had no special hobbies. The boy did not want to leave.

But he didn't dare to ask even a single extra word because Xie Chengzhou was staring at him. Although he was looking at him, he was actually looking at another person through him. A wave of discomfort suddenly gushed out in the boy's heart.

Regarding the matter of the picnic, while Yang Yan and Xu Ze sat at the table eating one night, he mentioned it to Xu Ze.

Not waiting for Xu Ze to say his refusal, Yang Yan continued to say the reasons that he had thought of in advance: "You're bearing a child right now so you should go out and walk more. The air quality in the city isn't good. The air in the suburbs is fresher, which should be good for you and the baby."

It could be said that this reason couldn't be any more justified, not to mention Yang Yan said it with a serious expression. Xu Ze pursed his lips to consider it for a moment.

"When is it?" Xu Ze asked. If he was asking this, he was expressing that he's half agreeing.

"This weekend. They have already found the place." Yang Yan said. He stared at Xu Ze's eyes before moving down, landing on Xu Ze's chopsticks. Xu Ze was picking dishes, but there were only ribs in his bowl. He didn't touch the carrots. Yang Yan frowned and suddenly changed the subject, "Don't be picky."

Xu Ze's hand that was holding the chopsticks paused. He looked up at Yang Yan and the latter was frowning at him, his expression being especially stern.

"I don't like to eat carrots." Of course he knew that carrots were nutritious and should be eaten more. But the carrots cooked in this way still had a strong carrot flavor. Just smelling that scent made Xu Ze not want to move his chopsticks .

"But if it's carrots meatballs, then it would be fine." Xu Ze thought about his time before he transmigrated here. His family would buy carrots and lean meat to make their own meatballs for New Year. He especially liked that kind of meatball.

While Xu Ze recalled the taste of the meatballs, his eyes instantly lit up. There was a cluster of fire leaping inside his peach blossom eyes.

Suddenly there was no sound coming from Yang Yan. Xu Ze looked over a little confused and saw Yang Yan staring at him unblinkingly. It felt like he had turned dumb from staring at him. Xu Ze lowered his gaze. There were no ups nor downs in his heart. He knew from early on that Yang Yan had some thoughts about him, but he didn't plan to make any responses. He and Yang Yan only had a relationship of 10 million yuan.

Once all the ten million were in his hand, everyone would go their own separate ways and live their own lives, becoming irrelevant to one another.

"Then let Aunt Dong make carrot meatballs some other day." Yang Yan nodded and noted down that Xu Ze liked to eat carrot meatballs.

Xu Ze did put Yang Yan's occasional concern in his eyes, but he wouldn't put it in his heart. He didn't plan to live with a man for an entire lifetime. It was basically impossible. Moreover, in his opinion, Yang Yan's heart would be moved for him today, but it couldn't be guaranteed that his heart also wouldn't move for other people in the future. This was mainly because of how Yang Yan had behaved in the past, which made it hard for him to believe that he would be a dedicated person.

Presently, the only point that Xu Ze recognized about Yang Yan would probably be that technique of his.

Thinking about the issue of techniques, Xu Ze seemed to have some needs again.

People were very easily controlled by instincts. Especially in the dark night, when some instincts deep in the body showed signs of emerging again.

After eating, Xu Ze sat in the living room, though the TV was not turned on. He took a pillow to cushion his back so that he would feel more comfortable while he leaned. Although his pajamas were loose, his clothes collapsed when he sat down, exposing the slightly protruding belly. The little life in his stomach seemed to be growing stronger day by day and occasionally Xu Ze seemed to be able to feel the baby breathing inside.

Xu Ze leaned on the sofa as he played with his phone. At least that was what it seemed like to Yang Yan. But in fact, Xu Ze was in contact with the real estate agency. A few days ago, he went to see a few second-hand houses, one of which he was quite satisfied with. The owner also just bought the house not too long ago. But because they were temporarily missing some cash flow for their business, they were in a hurry to sell. Xu Ze immediately liked the decoration and design of the entire house when he entered it. With one look, it could be seen that the ceramic tiles on the ground were of good quality. The various household appliances inside were all branded ones. Almost none of their prices were low. If he bought that house. Xu Ze could immediately move in and he doesn't need to buy any more furniture.

There were still a few houses he hadn't checked, but Xu Ze was not satisfied after seeing their photos so he didn't go. It could be considered luck. It just so happened that he wanted to buy it and it just so happened the house's owner was in a hurry to sell it.

Xu Ze expressed that he could pay out the full amount and let the agent negotiate the price with the landlord. The landlord was also happy, saying that if Xu Ze didn't want home appliances, he could pay 50,000 yuan less.

Xu Ze checked the range hood in the kitchen. Just that alone was worth tens of thousands, let alone the other refrigerator and washing machine.

So Xu Ze wanted all the home appliances.

When talking about this with the agent, Xu Ze noticed that Yang Yan was coming over. Yang Yan was holding a woolen blanket in his hand. After he came over, he spread the woolen blanket and laid it on Xu Ze's leg.

Xu Ze smiled slightly and said his thanks. Yang Yan glanced at the screen of Xu Ze's phone, though he didn't look closely. It seemed that Xu Ze was watching a video, since he was wearing headphones in one ear.

Yang Yan sat next to Xu Ze, turned on the TV with the remote control, and lowered the volume of the TV. The two people sat, with one playing on their phone and the other watching TV. This picture seemed quite peaceful and harmonious from a distance.

During the night, before Yang Yan went to sleep, his door was knocked on by someone once again. This time he didn't feel any shock. As soon as the door opened, Xu Ze, who was wearing sleepwear, walked into the room.

The door was gently closed and Xu Ze walked to the bedside.

Yang Yan grabbed Xu Ze's hand and pulled the person over to sit sideways on his lap. He held Xu Ze as he asked a question he had in his mind with a smile. He asked Xu Ze if he was using him as a tool, as a person at his disposal. That he would find him if there was a need, and when there wasn't, he would be lazy to even give him an extra glance.

Xu Ze asked rhetorically: "What do you think?"

Yang Yan pulled the back of Xu Ze's neck and kissed him. He gently gnawed on Xu Ze's lower lip. He saw the answer from Xu Ze's eyes. The answer that he already could have guessed long ago.

"Should I move downstairs and live in your room? Lest you keep running upstairs. The stairs are quite steep, I don't want you and the child to be in any trouble." Yang Yan was very good at finding excuses.

This was in accordance with Xu Ze's expectation. He tried Yang Yan several times for free. The other party asking to sleep on one bed together was something Xu Ze expected.

"Okay, you can move down if you want to move." Xu Ze had no problem. He even thought that Yang Yan might even be aesthetically tired soon. At that time he would move away by himself.

Yang Yan actually did not expect things to go so smoothly. He was even thinking that if Xu Ze refused, he would use the reasons he had thought of in advance to get Xu Ze to agree.

It was of course a good thing that it went smoothly. But at the same time, Yang Yan had a clear understanding that he just confirmed with Xu Ze's words. Although Xu Ze was asking rhetorically, no matter his expression or his tone, both were expressing a meaning. That for Xu Ze, Yang Yan's function was really a massage stick.

When did it begin, that he unexpectedly only had this function left? The person who once liked him suddenly became as if they had no remaining feelings for him, even becoming more casual and indifferent than him.

When Xu Ze ran up to him and told him that he was pregnant with his child in the beginning, the fragility that Xu Ze showed at that time made Yang Yan have an inexplicable desire to protect.

It was precisely the kind of physical instinct that urged Yang Yan's heart to become more and more fascinated later on towards this person. Now, after several more close contacts with Xu Ze, Yang Yan discovered that Xu Ze actually still had this side of him.

It seemed like the person he had been in contact with in the past and this one were like two different people. It's just that the two had the same face, but the person inside was different.

Of course, this was just a momentary thought of Yang Yan. He couldn't be more clear that Xu Ze was still the same Xu Ze. He was still someone he knew well.

Maybe these so-called changes were just because of their breakup, which made Xu Ze sensible. Now that the person was in his arms, he could hold him at any time. There was still time, Yang Yan did not believe that he would not be able to chase Xu Ze back.

This person's body could not be separated from him. Yang Yan was very sure of this point. He would slowly make Xu Ze like him again like before, then make him unable to leave him.

Yang Yan's gaze was like a torch, focusing deeply on the person in front of his eyes.

Xu Ze's peach blossom eyes were rippling with soft, charming

spring light. When he blinked slightly, it made people's hearts ripple. Yang Yan looked at his figure in Xu Ze's eyes, and his heart trembled.

Xu Ze's eyes were dyed with a flirtatious smile as he looked at this man who was obsessed with him. Speaking of Yang Yan, there were a lot of people around him in the past. Xu Ze didn't know if there was something wrong in his head, actually being very interested in this

head turning grass. He even called everyone around him away. His behavior these days seemed like he was going to develop in the direction of a good man.

Everyone was living together so occasionally helping out was fine. It was still better to not talk about other things.

Yang Yan didn't know that even if he would be with Xu Ze this time, Xu Ze's heart was thinking that he would not be moved by people like Yang Yan.

The night was long.

The dark night spread as the night outside the window became darker. Yang Yan looked into his arms, at Xu Ze's sleeping face. He couldn't bear to move his eyes. It took a long time before he fell asleep with the person in his arms.

Yang Yan replied with a short message: "I recognize him."

"This person is being so sneaky, just looking at him and you can tell he's up to no good. Brother Yang, what do you want us to do?" The other party asked Yang Yan what he meant.

"Find the person first, then take him to a place where there is no surveillance." Yang Yan turned around and looked into the living room. As much gentleness that was between his brows, was how harsh his tone was.

"Okay, don't worry. When we do things we do it absolutely cleanly and neatly." The other party took the money and was ordered to do things. They also knew the background of Yang Yan's family, so he didn't have any worries.

"After you find him, don't do anything yet. Wait for me to go over." Yang Yan wanted to personally ask that person what he wanted to do to the person he liked and also his child.

"Yes." The other person's voice contained obvious respect.

After hanging up the phone, Yang Yan put his phone in his pocket. In the living room, Xu Ze was still concentrating on playing the game, not knowing that Yang Yan had already found the target person and wanted to act against him.

Yang Yan went out for a trip after eating dinner. He couldn't always not go to his friend's arrangements.

The arrangement was at the club he often went to before. Almost every friend brought someone with them. Xie Chengzhou was also there, still taking the boy last time. In contrast, Yang Yan came here alone.

When Yang Yan walked into the club, all the friends' gaze went over to him. Yang Yan's sight paused for a moment on Xie Chengzhou and his lover, though there was not much fluctuation on his face. Yang Yan walked into the room and someone immediately got up, giving him the seat.

A friend next to him pushed their lover towards Yang Yan, teasing that during this period of time, Yang Yan had been keeping himself pure for that little baby in his home. It's as if he had completely changed as a person.

Men ah, rather than the red flag at home, it's only the colorful flags fluttering outside that are interesting. Occasionally pretending to have a deeply affectionate character was fine. However, being deeply affectionate all the time would be quite strange.

Not one of these friends believed that Yang Yan was actually serious this time. After seeing him playing around for so long, it was really hard to believe that he suddenly decided to settle down.

When the woman was pushed into Yang Yan's arms, a pungent perfume smell rushed to his face. Yang Yan's brows narrowed. Although he didn't push the woman away, he stared with an icy chill at the woman's smiling yet not smiling eyes.

That coldness was not any ordinary coldness that makes your back feel chills. The woman only felt that she was like worthless rubbish on the roadside that was thrown away by someone casually. Her entire body was stiff. She wanted to raise her lips and smile, using her usual coquettish that raised people's goodwill to say hi to Yang Yan. However, facing Yang Yan's cold indifferent eyes that were looking at her, let alone making a sound, the woman couldn't even breathe normally.

The friend noticed that the woman was frightened by Yang Yan. At any rate, it was the person they had brought. If Yang Yan wasn't interested, It could only be said that Yang Yan didn't like this type. The friend hugged the woman who had been pushed out back in his arms. His tone was gentle as he comforted her: "Yang Yan's sight is too high, uninterested in you. It seems that you still have to follow me at the moment. Don't be afraid, there's still me here!"

Those words of his made it seem like the one who just pushed the person out was not him.

The woman leaned in the arms of the friend, not making a sound. Her posture was obedient and humble. She was clear about her identity. In the eyes of these people, those like her were only their plaything.

"After two more days, we'll be able to see the baby that Yang Yan is hiding. I'm guessing they must look like a national beauty!" Cao Mingyong who was on the side cut into the conversation.

"Ay, Yang Yan, aren't you holding them tightly? Willing to bring the person out, are you not afraid of scaring your baby darling?" That friend who was hugging the woman was also curious.

"He's not that delicate." Yang Yan replied.

Cao Mingyong suddenly turned towards Xie Chengzhou: "Chengzhou, aren't you the closest to Yang Yan? Have you seen that darling in his home?"

Xie Chengzhou lied without blinking: "I haven't, I'm even more curious than you guys."

"I thought you had seen them. By the way, the two of you seemed to have a bit of conflict before. If you had said you knew them, I might be guessing whether that was because of this special baby!" Cao Mingyong was joking. This circle was not so big so there were some things that spread quickly.

To a certain extent, this joke of his was really close to the truth.

The two parties in the know looked at each other, neither admitting it nor would they admit it.

After playing until it was about ten o'clock, Yang Yan got up and left first. There was a pregnant person at home, so he didn't want to go back too late and make noises, annoying Xu Ze.

Yang Yan had already taken some things from the second floor to the first floor. When he said he wanted to live in Xu Ze's room, he was not just talking nonsense. With a soft body in his arms at night, his sleep quality could be said to have risen straight up.

Since he drank a little wine, Yang didn't drive the car himself. He called a diver to drive him back.

The street lights in the community were dim. Yang Yan paid the driver and got out of the car and walked towards the single-unit building. In the darkness, a black shadow silently followed Yang Yan. That person was holding a short knife in his hand. He slowly approached closer to Yang Yan.

Just then, Yang Yan's phone rang so he stopped to answer the call. The one who called him was the person that he called to investigate previously. While he was in the car, Yang Yan also answered a phone call. The other party told Yang Yan that they had found the person. That person bought a fruit knife from a supermarket. The investigator hesitated since the other party was walking in crowded places, so there was no way to get that person into a sack for the time being.

Yang Yan told the investigator to follow the person first, seeing what he was going to do with the knife.

Afterward, he received some more text messages, which revealed that the man had sneaked into the community where Yang Yan lived with a knife. He kept hiding in the darkness, looking like he wanted to hurt people. Yang Yan called Aunt Dong and asked about Xu Ze's situation at home. Aunt Dong said that Xu Ze went back to bed to sleep. Yang Yan didn't reveal anything to Aunt Dong. He hung up the phone and thought about it, basically guessing the man's thoughts. After being harshly beaten up by Yang Yan, he must be holding a grudge in his heart. Him wanting revenge was something that could be guessed.

Since someone was watching the man and it was already late at night, the personnel watching the man expressed to Yang Yan that they could put a sack on the man immediately. Yang Yan impromptu changed a bit of the plan.

Sacking and teaching him a lesson was too cheap for human scums like him. It was much more appropriate to send him to prison for a few years.

Yang Yan told people to not do anything for now and let him deal with him.

After hanging up the phone, Yang Yan slowed down his steps a bit. The man hiding in the dark didn't know his whereabouts had been exposed long ago, even thinking that he was hiding very well. However, his gaze that was on Yang Yan, which wished to peel off Yang Yan's skin, was too vicious. Yang Yan already had some perception of where he was.

He knew it but Yang Yan pretended not to notice. He continued to walk forward while listening carefully to the surroundings. There was the sound of cars passing by outside, causing the sound of man's footsteps to be almost hidden. Though if he used his heart to feel it, he could still hear faint traces of it.

When the man rushed fiercely out of the darkness, holding the knife in his hand and about to stab Yang Yan, Yang Yan was already prepared so he immediately turned and avoided it. However, he didn't avoid it too much, so the knife grazed Yang Yan's arm, directly cutting Yang Yan's hand.

Yang Yan clasped the man's wrist and violently snapped it. Since the strength used was quick and fierce, the man was struggling with pain. Yang Yan didn't give the other party a chance to react. He twisted around and clasped the man's arm, and harshly gave the person a shoulder throw. He was thrown directly onto the ground, creating a dull and loud slamming sound.

Yang Yan had been prepared long ago. Not to mention Yang Yan had practiced his skills, he spent a period of time practicing Sanda. Even if the sneak attacking man had a knife in his hand, Yang Yan knew that this scum would not be his opponent just based on the last time he beat the man.

Even with the knife, he was still an out and out dross.

He threw the person over the shoulder and harshly slammed him to the ground, and just like last time, Yang Yan didn't show any mercy. He stepped forward and ruthlessly kicked the man's chest, who was trying to get up with much difficulty.

This kick used even more strength than the last one. There seemed to be the sound of bones breaking. Yang Yan had kicked broken one of the man's ribs.

The light here was dim and no camera was installed. Just after the man's sneak attack on Yang Yan failed, several people walked out from the other direction.

Originally, towards Yang Yan's sudden request for them to stop and not to interrupt the attacker immediately, the few people looked at each other and didn't know what Yang Yan wanted to do.

When they were in the darkness and saw the man rushing to Yang Yan with a knife, they all sucked in a breath. They knew Yang Yan's identity. If something really happened to Yang Yan, they were afraid the Yang family would find them. They absolutely won't have any good fruit to eat.

Therefore, after the few people ran out, they immediately and nervously asked Yang Yan if he was injured at all.

Yang Yan's arm was scratched by a knife. Fresh blood was flowing out and someone's nose smelled it.

That person's face immediately had huge changes.

"Brother Yang, you're injured?" that person exclaimed.

Yang Yan seemed to only feel a little pain in his arm right now. He covered the bleeding area and felt the pain come in bursts. Although the wound wasn't really that deep, it could be said this was the first Yang Yan received this kind of injury in his life.

"It's fine, it's just a small injury." Yang Yan's black eyes stared coldly at the man lying on the ground who couldn't get up. He grew tall but was obviously only strong on the outside. The little bit of fighting power he had was destroyed with a few hits from Yang Yan.

"Then this person…" One of the people with a ticked hair style asked Yang Yan how they'll deal with the person who sneak attacked him.

The location here was not really that remote. A pedestrian started walking over here from the intersection.

Yang Yan already had an idea and a plan. The appearance of this person was to a certain extent helping Yang Yan, helping Yang Yan to chase a certain someone.

"You guys leave first, I will deal with it by myself." Yang Yan told the few people to withdraw.

Someone was curious and wanted to know how Yang Yan would deal with the man. Ticked Hair glared at that person, and their neck shrank back. Then the three of them turned around and left quickly.

The pedestrian came over and saw Yang Yan and the person lying on the ground. The person on the ground seemed to be groaning. Due to the awe-inspiring momentum emanating from Yang Yan's whole body, the pedestrian were frightened. Bearing the idea that one less problem is better than one more, they avoided Yang Yan.

Yang Yan took away the hand covering the wound. The smell of fresh blood was pungent. With the faint light on the side of the road, Yang Yan stared at the fresh blood in his palm, yet the corners of his lips suddenly rose.

Yang Yan took out his phone and dialed the police. He could privately teach this person a lesson before sending him to the police station. This person could not get out of his palm. But then Yang Yan thought it would delay too much of his time. He didn't want to spend his time on such scum. It was better to leave it for the police to deal with.

After the phone call, Yang Yan stood there waiting for the police to come. In the middle of waiting, he called Xu Ze. He didn't say anything about the attack and asked Xu Ze if he was going to sleep. Xu Ze had just taken a shower and was lying on the bed.

So Xu Ze said: "About to sleep." As soon as Xu Ze's voice ended, he heard the rapid sirens coming from outside the window. The sound was getting closer and closer. It was not passing by right outside the community, instead it seemed to have stopped over there.

Did something happen inside the community? It was already so late, what could even happen?

Xu Ze walked to the window and looked downstairs. Under the street lights, he could see a police car parked outside. There was a policeman that got out of the car. He didn't know why, but Xu Ze felt a kind of unspeakable feeling in his heart at this time.

He subconsciously asked Yang Yan: "Where are you right now?"

Yang Yan lied: "Still outside." Actually, it really doesn't count as a lie. He was indeed outside, but the outside here referred to the outside of the single unit building where Xu Ze was in.

"What's the matter?" Yang Yan knew that Xu Ze must have heard the police siren. He probably guessed that something had happened, and that's why he suddenly asked where he was.

"It's nothing, just asking." Xu Ze's tone was calm and plain.

"En, I have something to deal with, so I will be staying outside a bit longer. You should go to bed early. By the way, don't open the window too wide." Yang Yan's arm was still bleeding, yet he still didn't forget to care about Xu Ze.

"I know." Xu Ze said as he stood by the window. The wind blowing in from outside was indeed a bit freezing.

Closing the window and leaving a little gap, Xu Ze hung up the phone and returned to bed.

When Yang Yan hadn't moved from the upper floor to his room, Xu Ze slept directly in the middle of the bed since he was by himself. Now that he wasn't, he slept on one side and left out the other side.

He didn't know how long it had been when Xu Ze semi-consciously noticed a little movement beside him. He opened his dazed sleepy eyes and saw a tall figure in the dim light opening the quilt and approaching him. Xu Ze moved a little bit subconsciously. Yang Yan bathed and changed his pajamas upstairs. When he got into bed, he saw Xu Ze opening his eyes and staring at him. The half asleep and half awake Xu Ze seemed to have removed all his defenses around him. The entire person became so soft and lovely.

Yang Yan lowered his head and kissed Xu Ze's lips. He didn't kiss him for too long, only for a while.

Yang Yan rubbed Xu Ze's soft silky hair and said softly, "Go back to sleep."

Xu Ze made a soft sound of agreement before he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

After reaching out and turning off the bedside lamp, Yang Yan originally wanted to hug Xu Ze. But when he raised his arm, a feeling of piercing pain came so he slowly retracted it.

When he was injured, Yang Yan even wanted to use the wound to gain some favor. He didn't think that anything was weird at the time. Now that he had calmed down, he only wondered whether or not his brain was broken. There were still so many other ways to pursue Xu Ze, why would he choose to use an injury to obtain Xu Ze's sympathy?

Xu Ze was pregnant with his child. At this stage of nurturing the fetus, it's best if everything was stable. If his injury made Xu Ze emotional… Yang Yan thought this was probably the worst thing he has ever done in his life.

The person beside him fell asleep very quickly, and after a while, the sounds of shallow breathing came over. Listening to Xu Ze's breathing, Yang Yan shook his head and laughed. He'll just pretend his head was a hot mess in the heat of the moment. As for the matter of getting injured, he would hide it and not let Xu Ze know.

The person was right in front of him. There was no need to obtain Xu Ze's sympathy to make him fall in love with himself.

There was clearly another fundamentally inseparable relationship between them.

Yang Yan's gaze went down, towards Xu Ze's abdomen that was under the blanket.

Inside there was their baby. That was their child.

Regarding Yang Yan being attacked and having the police take the attacker away, Yang Yan did not disclose any information yet Xu Ze found out within two days.

He learned about it from his classmate, the one who was pursuing the attacker's ex-girlfriend. After learning about this from the girl, he immediately told Xu Ze.

The classmate knew the general situation, though the police knew the specific situation better. He said that the man ran to assault someone yesterday late in the night and even took a knife. However, the man did not expect that the other party had a bit of skill. The man didn't even hurt the person and he himself was even arrested for assaulting someone.

Xu Ze listened to the details from the classmate. He pursed his lips and asked, "Exactly when did this happen?"

The classmates saw that Xu Ze's expression was a bit strange, but he didn't think much about it as he said, "It was around ten o'clock yesterday night."

"Around ten o'clock?" Xu Ze repeated.

"Yeah, it seemed to be in a community. I don't know who the man ran to sneak attack. He was beaten by someone again and it was worse than Yang Yan's beating last time. It seemed like a rib was even broken."

There was still time before class started. Xu Ze had a certain guess in his heart. He took out his phone and looked at the time when Yang Yan called him the night before. It was about 10:20, which coincided with the time that the classmate said.

At that time, he wondered why Yang Yan had suddenly called and asked him if he was sleeping. He also just so happened to hear the sound of the police siren during that time. Too many coincidences were not a coincidence anymore.

In addition, Xu Ze remembered that when he woke up in the morning, Yang Yan's hands weren't on him. Usually, Yang Yan would always hug him when he slept. He hadn't hugged him since that night. But from the time of him waking up to before sleeping, Yang Yan had shown no abnormality.

So if nothing surprising happens, the person attacked by the man was Yang Yan.

Yet Yang Yan didn't reveal any information, completely as if nothing had happened.

The class bell rang and Xu Ze opened his book. The teacher was standing on the podium, but at this time, Xu Ze's thoughts were still on Yang Yan.

He was thinking about why Yang Yan didn't say anything, pretending that it didn't happen. Was it because he was afraid that he would worry, or was it… Xu Ze's sight moved to his abdomen. It was likely that Yang Yan didn't want it to affect him and the child.

If it was someone else, after knowing about this matter, they would probably be moved by Yang Yan's concealed act.

But as for Xu Ze, he didn't seem to be moved much. To be precise, it was Yang Yan who took the initiative to pull the man's hatred over to himself. The man attacking him was actually something to be expected. But after thinking about this point, Xu Ze was stunned. He remembered that someone had secretly followed him during the morning of the day the incident happened.

Xu Ze's hand that was turning the pen suddenly stopped and his pupils widened slightly. So in fact the man had originally planned to attack him. But because he felt it in advance that he was being followed, he didn't go out at night.

He usually walked around the community at night. If he went out that night, he might have been the one who was sneak attacked.

And he wouldn't expect anything dangerous to happen. This body also wasn't as good as Yang Yan in terms of physical abilities. The consequence of what would've happened could be imagined.

It was also only at this time that Xu Ze seemed to develop a bit of fear.

It was Yang Yan who was helping him and the baby by keeping the danger out. Whether emotionally or logically, he should be saying his thanks to Yang Yan.

Yang Yan was at home when he received Xu Ze's text message. At home, elders were coming. It happened that Yang Yan didn't really have any classes that day. There were only two public classes so Yang Yan directly escaped.

He opened the text message and saw that Xu Ze only sent two words "Thank you".

Yang Yan squinted his eyes. Of course, he knew these two words, but he didn't know why Xu Ze would suddenly say thanks to him. Yang Yan replied with a message, "Why thank me?" He asked Xu Ze about the reason.

"Yesterday night." Xu Ze didn't say much.

These few simple words immediately let Yang Yan know that Xu Ze knew something.

"How did you know?" Yang Yan thought he had concealed it quite well, yet in the end, Xu Ze still found out.

"There is a classmate that's pursuing that person's ex-girlfriend." As for who exactly, Xu Ze won't be saying it.

Yang Yan held the phone. After a moment of silence, Yang Yan wrote, "No need for thanks. Protecting you and the child is what I should do."

Staring at the sentence on the screen, Xu Ze smiled silently. If the person who saw this sentence was the original host, he probably would be very moved.

However, Xu Ze was not the original host after all. He may be a little touched, but for him to change his original intentions, this wasn't even close to a tenth of what's required.

Xu Ze was wondering if he should talk openly and honestly with Yang Yan. After he gives birth to the child, he'll be taking the money and leaving. In his future life plan, there's no child, let alone another man.

He liked living by himself. He doesn't feel like his soul was empty or lonely to the point that he needed someone else to accompany him.

The two didn't continue messaging. Xu Ze ended the conversation with the excuse "I'm going to class".

On the other side of the phone, Yang Yan was not as calm as Xu Ze. Xu Ze's one line of thank you seemed to clearly reveal his attitude to Yang Yan. That is, even if they slept on the same bed, Xu Ze's heart was still not moved by Yang Yan.

After knowing what Yang Yan did, Xu Ze was not moved. His estranged and polite thank you seemed to have completely clarified the relationship between them.

At the same time, he was also expressing to Yang Yan that he was grateful for what Yang Yan has done for him and the baby. But it was only gratitude.

Yang Yan rejoiced that he didn't bring up the injury to Xu Ze to try to arouse Xu Ze's sympathy. He was thinking, fortunately, he didn't do that, otherwise, he would only be even more disappointed at that time.

Does he have to lock up that person so there's only himself in his eyes before his heart will slowly fall in love with himself? Yang Yan suddenly had this kind of crazy idea in his mind.

At the same time, he found out that he seemed to understand a little of the person who he sent to the police station. That person probably had a similar psychology toward his ex-girlfriend. Seeing that the person he liked ignored him, talking and laughing with others, he would only feel abnormally angry.

Yang Yan immediately shook his head and smiled again. He was different from that scum. He would not hurt the person he liked. He couldn't even wait to spoil him, so how could he even bear to hurt Xu Ze.

When the two returned home that night, neither of them took the initiative to mention the things they had talked about during the day. They sat at the dining table together for dinner. After eating, Xu Ze went to the sofa and turned on the TV to watch just like usual.

Yang Yan peeled an apple and passed it into Xu Ze's hand. He also peeled one for himself to eat. It seemed like they couldn't get along anymore harmoniously.

At around nine o'clock, Yang Yan got up and said that he was going out. As for where he's going, he didn't disclose it to Xu Ze. Although the two were living together, they were not dating nor were they lovers. Whatever Yang Yan wanted to do when going out was Yang Yan's freedom. Xu Ze won't cross the boundary by going over and asking questions.

Yang Yan took the jacket and wore it. He walked to the entrance and opened the door. When he was changing his shoes, he looked up at Xu Ze on the sofa. He thought that if Xu Ze told him not to go out, he would immediately not leave.

Putting on his shoes, Yang Yan opened the door and left. He knew Xu Ze wouldn't say anything like that.

Drinking in a bar outside, surrounded by the hustle and bustle, Yang Yan was absent-minded. The person was here, but his heart seems to have gone elsewhere. The friends saw that he was lacking in interest. Someone thought of a way, wanting to make Yang Yan happy. But Yang Yan waved his hand to tell them to play by themselves.

Xie Chengzhou saw all of this. He had Xu Ze's phone number and he hadn't contacted Xu Ze for a while. After all, Xu Ze and Yang Yan were living together. It was too inappropriate for him to chase Xu Ze at this time.

However, looking at Yang Yan's current situation, it was as if he had lost his love. Xie Chengzhou thought Xu Ze's charm was really that great.

No matter what, it was still his brother, so he couldn't really let this person frown all day.

Xie Chengzhou patted Yang Yan on the shoulder, then invited him to go out and run a few laps.

Yang Yan indeed felt uncomfortable in his heart that he wanted to vent a lot, so he agreed to Xie Chengzhou's suggestion.

The two left the bar, driving the car out of the city.

On a wide section of the suburbs, Xie Chengzhou and Yang Yan made a gesture, which meant one match. In addition, Xie Chengzhou also made a number two sign, which meant 20 million.

This number instantly reminded Yang Yan of his previous loss to Xie Chengzhou. Plus knowing that Xie Chengzhou still hadn't given up on Xu Ze yet, Yang Yan's expression instantly darkened.

Author has something to say:

Third update has come! Happy!

Mini Theater:

One day, Xu Ze discovered that Yang Yan, the entire person, was broken from the inside out. So he found a large-sized garbage bag and put Yang Yan in it, and then threw the entire person with the bag into the garbage can altogether.

Yang-Trash-Yan crawled pitifully out of the trash can and ran home to look for the wife, but the wife ran away with the money, leaving only his son who was wailing and waiting to be fed. The big one and small one hugged their heads and cried bitterly right then and there.

It could be said to be they were used to being miserable ^_^

…

Slow transmigration. Baby will be born. When this plot is finished he'll be born. Will try to make that happen as soon as possible.

This arc is so longgggg. We're only about two-thirds way through. Thankfully this is the longest one. Every other one is about 20 chapters long.

And want to know when the baby arrives?

The baby arrives at Chapter 31.

It's definitely going to be a holly, jolly, happy-filled chapter.

Xie Chengzhou actually didn't think about the bet from the billiards game. When he used that number, he was only casually picking one. They would occasionally come out for a lap, and it would be boring to only run and not take something to bet. Because it was a sudden invitation, they didn't gamble on things but directly bet money.

After picking the number, he remembered what happened last time. Then thinking about it once more, Xie Chengzhou realized the situation. But if he changed it now, it would be clear that he wanted to cover it up.

Yang Yan probably would not be willing either. At any rate, he had known Yang Yan for so long. He knew that Yang Yan was not someone who couldn't afford to lose. At worst, he would apologize to Yang Yan after they finished competing.

Apologizing between friends, Xie Chengzhou didn't think there was anything.

Closing the car window, Xie Chengzhou drove his car forward to a wide section of the road before stopping.

Waiting for a few seconds, Yang Yan's car drove up from behind.

The two's cars stopped next to each other.

There were only the two of them here with basically no other cars coming and going around. Yang Yan turned his head and looked over to Xie Chengzhou. The two people's gazes were on one another. There were traffic lights in front of the two cars. They sat quietly in the cars as the deafening roars of the engines sounded out. The two of them had a mutual understanding. Xie Chengzhou knew what Yang Yan meant. The race would start as soon as the lights changed.

Xie Chengzhou curved his lips. He and Yang Yan had competed many times. The two's losses and wins were about 50-50. Today he took the initiative to invite Yang Yan to race, thinking that as a friend, he should find something to make Yang Yan a bit happy. But despite this, he didn't plan to go easy. They knew each other well. If he intentionally went easy, Yang Yan would be able to tell that.

So he could only hope Yang Yan's car skills would be better than his this time. Yang Yan would win this round and Xie Chengzhou would also have the chance to return the previous 2 million back.

If Yang Yan lost again this time, Xie Chengzhou would still take the money. At that point, it could only be said that Yang Yan's luck was really too bad.

It seemed like it was all because of Xu Ze. He didn't know if Xu Ze knew about these matters or not. If he knew, Xie Chengzhou still wouldn't know what Xu Ze's heart would be thinking.

Xie Chengzhou actually wanted to know quite badly.

As soon as the red light in front changed, the two stopped cars rushed out almost at the same time.

The sounds of the engines rumbled all around.

The cars speedily drove forward on the wide road. The two people in the cars focused their entire attention and stared in front. Their eyes, hands, and even feet cooperated with one another.

The fast race made their adrenaline surge. A type of rush was felt exploding in their brain.

This race was one he had to win. Yang Yan didn't care about losing or winning before. However this time his heart only had one thought, which was to win.

It wasn't for the 20 million, but that he wanted to beat Xie Chengzhou. Then he'll give Xie Chengzhou a warning, making Xie Chengzhou get rid of any thoughts on Xu Ze completely. That was his person. That person was bearing his child. No matter if Xu Ze liked him again or not, it would never be Xie Chengzhou's turn.

The cars flew forward. On the street, two afterimages of cars slid past.

The two cars were right next to each other. For a moment Xie Chengzhou was in front, another Yang Yan was a bit faster. It seemed that the winner couldn't be distinguished for the time being.

Yang Yan had no expression on his face, his pair of eyes were dark and gloomy. His two hands grasped the steering wheel as he controlled his breathing.

The two cars didn't slow down even when they passed curves. They both had the same idea, wanting to throw the other car off on the curve. However, because their idea was the same, the other side did the same. So even if one got ahead on one corner, after the next one they would still go hand in hand.

There were a few kilometers left until the finish line.

They all ran across this path before and were very familiar with the surrounding situation. The blue veins on the back of Xie Chengzhou's hand rushed all throughout violently. This kind of stimulating sport made people both physically and mentally excited. If the result was a victory, it would be even more perfect.

In this way, he would win 40 million yuan from Yang Yan. After Xu Ze gave birth to Yang Yan's child, he might be able to give Xu Ze all 40 million, letting Xu Ze give birth to one for him.

40 million yuan wasn't a small amount. Xu Ze's heart should be moved by this.

Xie Chengzhou's plan was good, but his plan couldn't keep up with the changes.

There were indeed very few cars on the surrounding roads, but that doesn't mean there were no cars.

It happened that the two cars came to a relatively narrow place and drove forward together. The one on the outside was originally Yang Yan, and there was a van coming from that side. Xie Chengzhou naturally also found out. He only thought it was god helping him. Yang Yan couldn't possibly use his car to collide with the other, so he definitely would avoid it.

What Xie Chengzhou didn't expect was that Yang Yan stepped on the accelerator and directly rushed forward.

Did he want to die?

Xie Chengzhou was stunned. The opposing car noticed that the two cars were driving side by side. Although they didn't know what the situation was, the driver's eyesight was still good. Either one of the two cars was very valuable and he couldn't afford to bump into them. The diver originally wanted to avoid them, but he did not know what was wrong at the time, but his hands panicked. With this panic, the steering wheel went in the wrong position and he rushed straight forward instead, rushing towards the middle of the two cars.

Xie Chengzhou didn't want a car accident yet, so he turned the steering wheel to avoid it. However, both sides were at high speeds, not to mention they were still facing each other.

Just in a few seconds, they bumped into one another.

The van wiped between Yang Yan and Xie Chengzhou, running into both cars. But the surprising part was that the car was only a little bit broken from the crash but none of the cars overturned.

Yang Yan's and Xie Chengzhou's cars were also scratched a bit. The two exchanged a glance and looked at each other. Although they were driving and unable to communicate, they immediately understood what the other party meant, which was to continue the race.

Yang Yan retracted his gaze, pulled the handbrake, and stepped on the accelerator. The action was done in one go. The accident just now had a little impact on Xie Chengzhou. Even if it was only a second, it was enough for Yang Yan to pass him.

Yang Yan seized the opportunity to overtake the car quickly,\ and instantly passed in front of Xie Chengzhou. Xie Chengzhou's car was fast and hit the rear of Yang Yan's car creating a loud bang. Yang Yan and the car trembled for a second.

He glanced at the car mirror and saw Xie Chengzhou who was behind him. It had nothing to do with money—for them, 20 million was only the price of a car, but the desire to win and the pursuit of victory was something else.

Crossing the finish line, Yang Yan stepped on the brakes and the car stopped on the side of the road. He sat in the car and didn't open the door to get off.

Xie Chengzhou's car slowly drove up from behind and stopped beside Yang Yan. Xie Chengzhou got out of the car. He walked to Yang Yan's car and put one hand on the roof. Xie Chengzhou bent over and knocked on Yang Yan's car window.

The glass lowered and Yang Yan turned to look at Xie Chengzhou.

"The 20 million will be transferred to you in a while. I didn't use a cent of the one you gave me last time." Xie Chengzhou's lips were smiling, but there were none in his eyes.

Yang Yan's face looked solemn. His thin lips opened, not talking about the matter of money: "Xu Ze is living with me right now."

Xie Chengzhou raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile: "I already guessed a long time ago that the little fairy they said who fascinated you was Xu Ze."

"I'm just more curious. You would actually eat head-turning grass? But thinking about it, that head-turning grass is different from others."

Xie Chengzhou didn't try to hide his interest.

He didn't seem to notice that every time he said a word, Yang Yan's expression turned colder.

"Xu Ze is mine, don't you dare touch him." Yang Yan's voice was completely cold.

Xie Chengzhou stared at Yang Yan and sized him up and down as if he suddenly didn't know Yang Yan.

"Are you actually being serious?" Xie Chengzhou didn't expect Yang Yan to vow to him, his possession of Xu Ze, which was not in line with Yang Yan's usual personality.

"This joke isn't funny!" Xie Chengzhou shook his head and said.

Yang Yan's eyes were cold, and Xie Chengzhou's laughter slowly stopped.

"If you really like him, I won't touch him." Xie Chengzhou put away his joking tone and straightened his face. But there was an underlying meaning to what he said. That was, if Yang Yan was only playing for a while, then he would act.

Yang Yan knew Xie Chengzhou's underlying meaning, but he didn't say much. What should've been warned was already warned.

The car window closed. Yang Yan turned the car around and left, leaving Xie Chengzhou standing in place.

Xie Chengzhou shook his head and laughed. He didn't know why, but his heart wasn't very happy inside.

After taking out his phone, Xie Chengzhou dialed a number and the bell rang a few times.

"Xu Ze!" Xie Chengzhou said.

"What's the matter?" When he received Xie Chengzhou's call, Xu Ze was drinking nutritious porridge. Every day Auntie Dong would cook a little for Xu Ze's pregnant body to drink.

"It's nothing, I suddenly thought of you." Xie Chengzhou leaned on his car, a smirk hanging on his lips. He raised his head and looked up at the dark night sky.

"If it's nothing then I'm hanging up." Xu Ze's tone was indifferent.

Xie Chengzhou laughed. Fearing that Xu Ze would immediately hang up, he said bluntly: "I just drove a lap with your guy."

"Your guy won."

Xu Ze raised his eyebrows. What's with "your guy"? Who does he have such an intimate relationship with?

After a moment, Xu Ze came to understand who Xie Chengzhou was talking about. Seeing what Xie Chengzhou meant, he obviously knew that he and Yang Yan lived together. He probably misunderstood the relationship between him and Yang Yan.

But whether or not to explain to Xie Chengzhou that his and Yang Yan's relationship was only living together and giving birth to the child, then after the child was born, he'll take the money and leave. After thinking about it, Xu Ze decided not to disclose anymore.

"En, I see." Xu Ze expressed no interest.

This indifference made Xie Chengzhou's smile deepen. Cold beauties were far more attractive and alluring than people that could only flatter and please.

"Yang Yan lost 20 million yuan to me before just for you. This time just for you again, he won this 20 million back. I think you should know about these two things." Xie Chengzhou waited with interest for Xu Ze's reaction.

But Xu Ze's reaction was the same as before and his voice seemed to be even more indifferent.

"Really? Is there anything else? If not, I'm going to sleep."

Xie Chengzhou's interest became stronger, but he restrained himself: "On this matter, don't tell Yang Yan that I've contacted you. I'm afraid he'll eat vinegar."

Hearing the two words eating vinegar, Xu Ze's eyes had a little fluctuation.

Quickly hanging up the phone, Xu Ze placed his finger on Xie Chengzhou's number. He suddenly wanted to directly pull this person's number into the blacklist.

In the end, Xu Ze did not block him. Xie Chengzhou probably had more than one account. Blacklisting him would let Xie Chengzhou know how much he disliked him. He had always refused Xie Chengzhou so blatantly before, yet as a result, Xie Chengzhou's interest in him still hasn't diminished

Xu Ze did not not know what the specific reason was. It was probably the same as Yang Yan's. People like them were born as heaven's proud son. Whatever they wanted was nothing they couldn't get.

Perhaps it was precisely because everything was satisfactory that when someone suddenly appeared to refuse them, they were immediately interested in them. It was only because it was something they couldn't receive that they were in a commotion.

As for how much he liked him was something that definitely couldn't be talked about. It was all just a momentary whim of interest after all.

Xie Chengzhou was like this, and Yang Yan was no exception.

Putting the phone aside, Xu Ze continued to drink the porridge. After finishing, it was quite late. It was already deep into the night. Xu Ze went back to his room, took a bath, and went to sleep.

Taking the pajamas to the bathroom, Xu Ze took a shower. Xu Ze came out after washing and saw that there was an extra person in the originally empty bedroom. Seeing Yang Yan who appeared, Xu Ze frowned suddenly. After he was pregnant, he was very sensitive to smells. With the appearance of Yang Yan, Xu Ze smelled a hint of blood in the air.

Xu Ze approached Yang Yan. As his peach blossom eyes sized up Yang Yan, his expression looked abnormal.

After winning Xie Chengzhou, Yang Yan logically should be happy yet his heart was instead heavy. It was difficult to become happy. When he returned home and saw Xu Ze was taking a bath, Yang Yan sat and waited for him.

Xu Ze came out in sleepwear. His white and flawless face was a little reddened after being steamed by the hot water. Only after seeing him did Yang Yan's heart seem to feel a little better.

Not knowing when it started, he found that he seemed to only want to look at Xu Ze all the time, to embrace him.

Yang Yan took Xu Ze's hand and pulled him over to sit on himself.

As soon as he approached Yang Yan's body, the smell of blood became stronger. It was so thick that Xu Ze's stomach churned. Xu Ze tried to push Yang Yan away, but Yang Yan thought that this was Xu Ze rejecting him. Yang Yan's expression turned cold as he held Xu Ze, not letting go.

Afterward, Xu Ze bent over and retched.

This sound frightened Yang Yan, his expression instantly changed. His worry was completely out in the open as he hurriedly asked Xu Ze: "What's the matter? Are you not feeling well?"

Xu Ze shook his head, covering his mouth and relaxing for a moment: "You stay away from me."

Yang Yan's face revealed his wounded-like dumbfoundedness. He only hugged Xu Ze, yet Xu Ze actually hated him to this point.

Yang Yan felt a bit of bitterness coating his tongue.

Xu Ze reached out to push Yang Yan. Yang Yan let go, but his eyes were gloomy and horrible.

"Your body smells like blood, I'm not used to it." Xu Ze noticed the change in the expression on Yang Yan's face. He was not saying it to appease Yang Yan, but only to tell a fact.

When Yang Yan heard that Xu Ze pushed him away not because he hated him, but because of the smell of blood on his body, his smile suddenly appeared again.

"I didn't pay attention and accidentally got hurt just outside. I will deal with it immediately. You open the window to let the wind in the room." Yang Yan immediately got up, not forgetting to remind Xu Ze to ventilate the air as he walked outside the room

Seeing Yang Yan's departure, Xu Ze could see all the changes in Yang Yan. He only smiled silently, not really having any emotional changes.

The smell of blood in the room seemed impossible to completely dissipate. Xu Ze could always smell a bit, but luckily it was not too strong so he didn't feel sick.

In the living room, Yang Yan was dealing with the wound on his arm. The wound split open while driving, causing blood to flow out which soaked his clothes inside and out. He still might have not noticed it if it hadn't been for Xu Ze's reminder.

Taking out the family medicine box, Yang Yan took off his shirt and applied medicine to the wound.

Aunt Dong originally had also fallen asleep. When she heard the movement outside, she walked out. Seeing that Yang Yan was unexpectedly injured, she hurried over to help.

After wiping the blood around the wound, as he was about to stick gauze Xu Ze suddenly opened his door. Xu Ze came out to pour some water to drink, then he saw the situation on over by the sofa.

He thought Yang Yan only received a little injury. But looking at his situation, it didn't seem to be a minor injury.

The wound on his arm was ferocious and terrifying. It looked like a knife wound.

Xu Ze walked over: "How did you get hurt?"

Xu Ze brows narrowed tightly. He stared at Yang Yan's arm for a while, then he looked directly at Yang Yan's eyes.

Yang Yan wanted to find an excuse to muddle through. He couldn't let Xu Ze know that this was the injury he suffered that night. It's just that when he met Xu Ze's clear peach blossom eyes, Yang Yan suddenly had the kind of thought that he could not lie to Xu Ze.

Yang Yan didn't answer for a while. Xu Ze pressed his lips tightly. The wound looked very new, obviously only cut in the past few days. Xu Ze was quite smart, and he roughly thought of a place after a little thinking.

"You were the one cut by that person that night, wasn't it?" Xu Ze guessed the reason in an instant.

Only at this moment did Yang Yan nod: "Yes, but it's just a little injury. It will be fine in a few days. You don't need to worry."

Xu Ze's lips moved slightly. He wanted to say that he really was not worried, but looking at the light in Yang Yan's eyes, he swallowed the words that rushed to the tip of his tongue.

"Take care of it and go to sleep earlier." Xu Ze walked over to pick up the hot water before walking back to his room quickly. As for the scorching eyes that fell on his back, Xu Ze just pretended he did not see them.

After the bandaging, Yang Yan went upstairs to take a bath as usual. In some aspects, he was indeed a scum. But on the other hand, he was not without any good points.

Going downstairs to Xu Ze's room, he saw Xu Ze already laid down. However, not all the lights in the room were turned off. A bedside lamp was left on.

Even if Xu Ze expressed that he's unmoved and even indifferent, just this little bit of detail, Yan Yang seemed to be able to magnify it infinitely.

He wondered if he was too radical. In fact, he completely could just take it easy. The future was still very long. Why should he make himself hurry?

Walking to the bed, Yang Yan lifted the quilt gently. He even slowed down his movement of lying down. Xu Ze was not asleep. He closed his eyes when Yang Yan came in. When Yang Yan lay on the bed, he opened his eyes and looked at Yang Yan.

When Xu Ze was lying down, the previous indifference showed was now much less. The entire person looked strangely gentle and soft. Yang Yan didn't know when it started, perhaps in their first in-depth contact after Xu Ze became pregnant with the child. After that, Xu Ze became a kind of temptation for him.

Especially in the dark night, Yang Yan only wanted to deeply hold Xu Ze.

Although his arm was injured, Yang Yan didn't put that injury in his eyes at all. Although it was split open again today, he still didn't care much.

Yang Yan lowered his head and kissed Xu Ze's lips. He bit and sucked on the very soft lips.

Xu Ze actually didn't have much needs tonight. The frequency of rolling in the sheets with Yang Yan stayed around twice a week. On this day, because of Yang Yan's active teasing, Xu Ze's body became uncontrollable and gradually became hot and dry.

That fire spread from inside out his body. Xu Ze originally intended to push Yang Yan away, yet instead, it turned into his arms holding the back of Yang Yan's neck.

The tongues of the two were intermingled as the sounds gradually appeared in the room. Yang Yan pushed the hem of Xu Ze's clothes upwards, while he nibbled Xu Ze's lower lip as if he was eating cotton candy. He couldn't help but greedily taste it.

Yang Yan's skills were superb. Just in a moment, the fire in Xu Ze's body burned to the end of his eyes, making them seductive red.

Xu Ze opened his lips slightly and exhaled as he looked at Yang Yan. Yang Yan leaned over and slowly lowered his lips, from Xu Ze's chin to his neck, then gently kissed Xu Ze's beautiful collarbone.

Xu Ze's eyes twinkled with glittering water inside. Every exposed skin all over his body seemed to be sensitive. Even more, Yang Yan's lips suddenly became hotter. The places that were touched gave Xu Ze a kind of trembling numbness.

When Yang Yan's lips fell on Xu Ze's slightly protruding abdomen, since there was a baby living in it, Xu Ze couldn't help but snort.

Yang Yan lifted his deep black eyes to look at Xu Ze. Xu Ze's pair of eyes were moist, his peach blossom eyes were full of autumn waves, which was alluring to the extreme.

Yang Yan dropped his lips again, his brows containing as much gentleness and cautiousness, as if he was afraid that a little heavier would disturb their baby.

But just after Yang Yan kissed him, Xu Ze's expression suddenly changed slightly. He grabbed Yang Yan's hair and made Yang Yan stop.

"Wait, wait a minute!" Xu Ze's current state was a bit strange, his voice carrying some trembling.

Yang Yan noticed something wrong with Xu Ze and stopped immediately. At the same time, he was still in a good mood from before, which now changed into worry about Xu Ze and the baby.

"What's the matter? Is your stomach uncomfortable?" Because of the last accident, Xu Ze's stomach was suddenly cramped. After that, Yang Yan was even more nervous and concerned about Xu Ze's body than Xu Ze himself.

Xu Ze's eyes widened slightly as if surprised. He stared at his slightly protruding stomach. He wasn't sure if it was his misconception, so he didn't immediately respond to Yang Yan.

From the side, Yang Yan stared at Xu Ze with both eyes, fearing that something might happen to Xu Ze.

There was a slight movement from his belly that Xu Ze carefully and thoroughly perceived. It was indeed the baby in the belly that was moving. To be precise, it was the baby breathing like a small fish, quietly blowing bubbles in Xu Ze's belly.

The baby was growing in the womb and surrounded by amniotic fluid. The baby was breathing in the amniotic fluid just like a small fish.

Xu Ze's palm lightly fell on his stomach as he told Yang Yan what he had discovered: "The baby is blowing bubbles inside."

"Blowing bubbles?" Yang Yan knew every word separately, but what did they mean together? Yang Yan's brain got stuck for a while as he stared at Xu Ze in a daze.

Xu Ze smiled and repeated: "Yes, he's blowing bubbles. Blowing bubbles like a fish."

"Little fish?" Yang Yan couldn't hide his surprise. He leaned over and put his ear on Xu Ze's belly, trying to listen to the baby's movements.

"You can't hear it." Xu Ze felt that this action of Yang Yan was childish and ridiculous. How could he possibly hear the sound?

Yang Yan slowly got up, also feeling that he seemed to have become stupid.

"Are you uncomfortable?" Yang Yan was afraid that Xu Ze would be affected by the baby blowing bubbles.

Xu Ze shook his head: "He just blew for a moment. Now it seems to be gone."

"He still isn't sleeping when it's this late?" Yang Yan stared at Xu Ze's stomach without blinking, looking as if he could see through the surface at the little guy inside.

"Might have disturbed him, so he blew bubbles in protest." Xu Ze pointed out.

Yang Yan was stunned. Although at this time his expression showed that he seemed to really believe Xu Ze's words, it was unlikely that he would react later.

But after such a small episode, Yang Yan didn't have any fire to continue. The back of his hand slid across Xu Ze's delicate face, the deep feelings in his eyes overflowed like seawater.

"Sleeping?" Xu Ze asked with curved lips.

Yang Yan turned around and turned off the light. As the darkness covered them, the two bodies in the quilt gently held each other.

Nothing happened in the next few days and then it was the weekend.

Yang Yan, Cao Mingyong, and others made an appointment to have a picnic on Longhu Mountain. The departure time was in the afternoon because most of the other people who were going together were night owls. If they set out in the morning, it could be estimated that few would be able to get up.

Although Yang Yan didn't go out to play the night before, he still slept late. Similarly, Xu Ze didn't get up until it was about noon.

When it was breakfast, Xu Ze woke up for a while. Yang Yan got up and brought breakfast into the room. He watched Xu Ze finish eating before bringing out the empty bowl. Yang Yan himself wasn't that hungry, so he only ate a little.

The weather was cold and there was nothing to do in the morning, so Yang Yan also went back to the cozy bed.

Holding Xu Ze for a while, Yang Yan woke up again. Xu Ze was still asleep when he woke up. Xu Ze slept sideways with a few strands of hair falling off his forehead. Yang Yan gently stroked those away. The two rolled too late last night, so Xu Ze was so tired he fell asleep right as laid down.

Yang Yan's gaze was fixed on the back of Xu Ze's neck that had a bit of red mark. Yang Yan stared at that, just thinking that this kind of trace was always there.

Yang Yan looked away and moved to Xu Ze's face. He hung his hands halfway in the air, stroking the tender white skin through the air.

His phone received a text message. Yang Yan turned on mute first, on;y then did he open to see the text message.

The text message was sent by Cao Mingyong, reminding Yang Yan not to forget to bring his little baby with him. Everyone wanted to see them.

Suddenly Yang Yan didn't want to take Xu Ze there, not wanting other people to know Xu Ze's existence.

This person was indeed his baby, He and the child in his stomach were all his babies.

After lunch, Xu Ze went back to his room to change clothes. He still remembered he was going out this afternoon. He also knew that besides them, there were also some friends of Yang Yan coming. Xu Ze met a few of Yang Yan's friends. It was pretty much the so-called similar people gathering together in a group. Personally, it doesn't matter whether he goes or not, but since he already made the arrangement, he might as well take it as going for a walk.

After changing his clothes, Xu Ze saw that over by Yang Yan, there seemed to be no movement. Yang Yan's current expression seemed like he had forgotten about the picnic outing, and so Xu Ze asked, "Didn't you say we're going out? You're not changing your clothes?"

Xu Ze's tone was relatively calm, but falling on Yang Yan's ears, it seemed to make Yang Yan think that Xu Ze was looking forward to going out. He thought about how Xu Ze had only been going between the school and here during this time, that life seemed a bit boring. Yang Yan originally planned to mention that this picnic was canceled to Xu Ze and then take Xu Ze to another place with only the two of them. But when Xu Ze stared at him with his sparkling peach blossom eyes, Yang Yan thought never mind then.

He nodded: "En, I'll go change immediately." He couldn't really have Xu Ze only look at him and not let Xu Ze see anyone. He couldn't do that.

Yang Yan went back upstairs. Although he slept in the same room with Xu Ze at night, his clothes were still placed upstairs.

While sitting on the living room sofa and waiting, Xu Ze brought a glass of warm water to drink slowly as he looked down at his stomach.

The air conditioner was turned on in the living room so the temperature was warm. Xu Ze did not wear a down jacket for the time being, though he did wear autumn clothes and a sweater. When he bought it, he thought about his stomach so he bought a large size. However, even though he was wearing the large sweater now, his stomach was still bulging.

The child was conceived in early September. It was now January, which means it had been about four months. Based on the ten months pregnancy, the expected due date should be July this year. That would be close to summer vacation, and would probably be exam time. Xu Ze hadn't really thought about this problem. If he suddenly gave birth to the child during the exam, he was afraid that he would fail the class and repeat it.

However, Xu Ze wasn't really worried. Comparing repeating a grade to ten million dollars, the latter was definitely more important.

As he drank the water, Xu Ze seemed to feel a little hungry again. Although he just had lunch, he was not alone now. There was still a little guy in his stomach. Sometimes when he felt hungry quicker, he would take some little snacks to eat.

Yang Yan changed his clothes quite quickly. He was done in a short moment. When he went downstairs, he saw Xu Ze eating. He stopped for a while at the entrance of the stairs. The scene of Xu Ze eating unexpectedly had a kind of warm and cozy feeling when it landed in Yang Yan's eyes.

Originally, this house was just a brick residence for him, and there was no other meaning. But when Xu Ze, who was bearing with his child, moved in, Yang Yan suddenly felt that this house had some other meaning which made his heart fill full.

Yang Yan wanted to stay here, wanting to stay together with Xu Ze all the time.

Noticing Yang Yan on the stairs, Xu Ze put down the snacks in his hand and stood up.

Yang Yan walked over, glanced at what Xu Ze had just eaten, and asked him, "Hungry again?"

"Not really, I just want to chew something in my mouth." Xu Ze shook his head.

Yang Yan bent down and packed some small snacks into his pocket. Xu Ze could eat them while they were on the road.

The location was a bit far and it would take about 40 to 50 minutes to drive there. In addition to the snacks, Yang Yan also took a thermos and poured hot water into it.

There was nothing else to really take, so the two went out together.

Just like before, Yang Yan asked Xu Ze to sit in the back seat.

Xu Ze didn't say much of anything as he sat in the back seat. As the car started, the windows closed, and the air conditioner was turned on, Yang Yan asked Xu Ze, "Is the temperature comfortable? If it's not, I'll turn it higher."

Today's weather was quite good. The sun was shining brightly. In fact, there was no need to turn on the air conditioner since the sunlight shone through the car window. Xu Ze could feel the warmth of it.

"This temperature is fine." Xu Ze told Yang Yan no need to turn it too high.

After eating lunch, Xu Ze had the habit of taking a nap. So while Yang Yan was driving, he leaned on the car seat, closed his eyes, and slowly fell asleep.

Yang Yan in front saw Xu Ze closing his eyes to rest. In the past, he liked speeding whenever he drove, driving quite fast. Now that Xu Ze and his child were in the car, Yang Yan slowed down the speed and drove the car extremely smoothly. When he saw a traffic light in the distance, he reduced his speed in advance, so as not to hit the brakes just as the red light comes.

Yang Yan turned off his phone's ringtone. He saw that the screen turned on. It was a friend calling him, but he didn't answer. It was probably the friend asking him where he was.

Over on the other side, Cao Mingyong called Yang Yan, but he didn't answer. Clearly when he called Yang Yan before he would answer. Now he didn't know what was happening over by Yang Yan's side. Cao Mingyong mentioned this to Xie Chengzhou. Xie Chengzhou said that he would try calling and found Yang Yan's number. Xie Chengzhou called and the situation was the same as Cao Mingyong's. Yang Yan also did not pick his call up.

Yang Yan said that he would bring Xu Ze out. It wasn't to the point where he would regret it at the end. Even if there were other things, he should've told them in advance.

Xie Chengzhou pursed his lips. Suddenly his eyes lit up slightly, and he guessed a certain situation.

"He should be on the way here. Maybe his phone was accidentally muted, so he didn't see it." Xie Chengzhou explained like this to Cao Mingyong.

Cao Mingyong didn't know the inside story and nodded, thinking that that was probably the case. He didn't notice the strange smile in Xie Chengzhou's eyes when he said this.

Xie Chengzhou actually thought at the time whether Yang Yan would be reluctant to bring Xu Ze out. After all, Yang Yan cared and liked Xu Ze way more than before. Not to mention he was possessive, so maybe he would not be willing to bring the person out to show them.

But just ten minutes later, Yang Yan's car drove over. The car stopped on the side of the road and two people got out of it.

One of them was naturally Yang Yan. As for the other one, Xie Chengzhou and many others all focused their attention over.

Several people recognized Xu Ze. When they saw that the person Yang Yan brought was Xu Ze, they couldn't hide the surprise on their faces. As for the others who didn't know Xu Ze, they were instantly attracted by Xu Ze's handsome and beautiful face and all revealed their astonished gaze. One of them immediately asked in a teasing tone after Yang Yan and Xu Ze approached.

"Yang Yan, where did you find such a treasure? I was saying why you'll hold him so tightly. Looking like this, If it was me, I would also be reluctant to bring them out."

Yang Yan's expression was cold. When his friend looked at Xu Ze with explicit eyes, Yang Yan pulled Xu Ze into his arms in one go, as if he's declaring his possession.

"Watch your eyes." Yang Yan's smile was icy and indifferent.

The person who was warned was suddenly stunned. He stared at Yang Yan. For a moment he thought that the Yang Yan in front of his eyes was swapped by someone. Feeling the pressure from Yang Yan, the friend's eyes narrowed slightly as he retracted his scrutiny gaze and also his teasing heart.

"Right, I didn't notice just now. Yang Yan, doesn't your little lover seem to look a bit like the one that Xie Chengzhou brought? The two of you didn't negotiate this right?" The friend's eyes were sharp, noticing this problem in an instant.

It was still fine if he didn't say it. Now that he said it, the other people also felt that it seemed to be true.

Cao Mingyong walked over, his eyes looking at the faces of Xu Ze and the young boys brought by Xie Chengzhou. Though it was obvious that there was no need to compare. Xu Ze's face was as delicate and beautiful as it was sculpted by hand.

Over on the side, Xie Chengzhou saw Yang Yan and Xu Ze had come, so he brought his little lover over. Xie Chengzhou pulled over the boy as he put his arms around the boy's shoulder and smiled with deep meaning: "Don't say it, you and him indeed look alike!"

The boy's gaze went over to look at Xu Ze. Compared to the smile on Xie Chengzhou's face, the boy's expression was clearly shock.

Before he came, he knew that there would be such a person. Because he looked like the other party, Xie Chengzhou took a fancy to him. He was mentally prepared and felt that that person might be good-looking. However, when he saw the real Xu Ze, he knew that there was not only a small gap between him and Xu Ze, but a very huge gap.

He was even thinking that there was nothing similar to Xu Ze about him at all. If he stood together with Xu Ze, people's eyes would only be attracted to Xu Ze. his own eyes would also be the same.

He had never seen a person as beautiful as Xu Ze, with a temperament standing out from the crowd. That person stood there quietly without speaking and had no expression on his face, yet when he appeared, it seemed that the sunlight was gathering on him, enveloping him with a thin layer of dazzling halo.

It was as if he looked like a beauty who walked out from a painting.

Before the boy came, he even had a little hostility towards this person he had never met. After seeing Xu Ze, the hostility in his heart disappeared completely. He suddenly wanted to walk over to get to know Xu Ze. He even wanted to tell Xu Ze his name.

He wanted those charming, affectionate peach blossom eyes to be able to look at himself.

The boy understood why Xie Chengzhou found him to be Xu Ze's stand-in.

Everyone was saying that Xu Ze and Xie Chengzhou's lover look alike. Xu Ze, as the concerned party, swept his eyes across the crowd, landing on the handsome boy. Looking at him, he seemed to be about 18 to 19 years old. The boy was also looking at him. Xu Ze's pupils shrunk slightly. It was not because he found that the boy really resembled him, but because he noticed that the boy's gaze while staring at him clearly contained infatuation within it.

Normally under these circumstances, shouldn't he be unhappy? After all, the others said they looked alike. Xu Ze took a closer look at the boy. As the boy was stared at by Xu Ze's charming peach blossom eyes, his cheeks actually turned red after a while.

Xie Chengzhou first discovered this situation. He thought that his little lover would show some hostility to Xu Ze, but this development was completely different from what he expected.

However, when Xie Chengzhou went to see Xu Ze's peach blossom eyes, He understood immediately. It seemed that Xu Ze's charm was really that great.

Indeed, it couldn't not be big. Xu Ze was able to fascinate Yang Yan to his core, and even Xie Chengzhou himself had his heart feeling itchy. Being able to hook other people's gaze, it was completely natural.

"Do they look alike? I don't really think so." Xie Chengzhou interjected.

As soon as he said this, the other people carefully compared them again and found that they really don't look alike. In terms of temperament, the boy couldn't compare with Xu Ze.

"Hey hey hey, all of you don't just don't stand there! Get something to eat ah! We didn't come out to just stand and play!" Someone shouted.

Those who gathered together immediately dispersed.

Before Yang Yan and Xu Ze came, the barbecue grills were already set up. The barbecue vegetables and even fruits were also brought out.

There were a lot of people, so there were three sitting mats on the ground. Quite a lot of beer was placed on top of them.

The charcoal fire started and a few people started barbecuing there. As for Yang Yan and the others, although they were friends, there were still differences between friends in their identities and positions. Yang Yan would not normally do anything like barbecuing.

No one would ask him to do it either.

Yang Yan and Xu Ze were together and he asked Xu Ze, "Are you tired? If you are tired, just sit for a while."

Xu Ze shook his head. It wasn't him who just drove the car. He sat in the back seat and slept all the way. Right now he was in good spirits and just wanted to walk around.

This place seemed to be halfway up the mountain. Being away from the hustle and bustle of the city, the air was strangely very clear. Taking a breath, it was as if the air was full of sweetness.

"I'll go for a walk nearby!" Xu Ze mentioned to Yang Yan.

Although he liked to eat things like barbecue, in his current physical condition, as he's bearing a little guy, he's trying to not eat such things as much as possible. And just smelling the oil smoke smell coming over, Xu Ze felt a little uncomfortable.

I'll go with you! The words rolled on the tip of Yang Yan's tongue, but he could see a meaning in Xu Ze's clear eyes. That was that Xu Ze wanted to walk by himself. Yang Yan's heart felt blocked and uncomfortable, yet his exterior appearance was nodding.

"Don't go too far." Yang Yan urged.

Xu Ze smiled slightly which made Yang Yan's expression also change slightly. Because that light smile of Xu Ze's hit him hard on his heart.

The people here, except for Yang Yan, Xu Ze also had no interest in making friends with the other people, so he turned around and left by himself.

Other than Yang Yan's gaze that was on Xu Ze, there were also several other lines of sight that fell on him.

As soon as Xu Ze was gone, Xie Chengzhou came next to Yang Yan. He put his hands around his chest and curled the corner of his mouth, talking to Yang Yan in a voice that only he and Yang Yan could hear: "If you're not following him, aren't you afraid that something might happen to your baby and your little baby?"

Xie Chengzhou knew the inside story and knew that Xu Ze was bearing one more inside his stomach.

Yang Yan squinted at Xie Chengzhou, his gaze containing frost: "You care too much."

Xie Chengzhou stared at the side of Yang Yan's face. He stared for a while, then he laughed, "From what I see, it seems like Xu Ze doesn't like a certain somebody. You say, after he gives birth to the child, would things still be like right now?"

Would he stay together with Yang yan like this?

Xie Chengzhou didn't say the latter, but Yang Yan guessed it instantly.

"No matter if it's like right now or not, it'll never be the turn for unrelated people to worry about." Yang Yan did the same and contained meaning in his words.

Xie Chengzhou raised his head and laughed. The voice sounded so pleased that everyone who was barbecuing heard it. And so everyone showed a little curiosity, wondering what funny things Xie Chengzhou and Yang Yan were talking about.

"Don't fill your words so much." Xie Chengzhou meant something. Obviously, the warning Yang Yan gave to Xie Chengzhou after the last race had no effect. Xie Chengzhou was still interested in Xu Ze and wanted to get Xu Ze.

While the two were talking, Xie Chengzhou's little lover walked over and his expression was a little uneasy. Xie Chengzhou looked at the boy's face. He originally thought he looked like Xu Ze, but now really putting them together, there's no comparison at all.

"What's the matter?" Xie Chengzhou asked.

"Can I go walk around nearby?" The boy's voice was very low as if he was afraid that he would make Xie Chengzhou unhappy if he spoke loudly.

"You can, but if you get lost, no one will go pick you up."

Xie Chengzhou said with laughter. It seemed to look like a joke, but the indifference in his eyes let the boy know that Xie Chengzhou's words could be counted on.

"I understand." The boy lowered his eyes.

There was a sharp gaze in front staring at the boy. The boy felt like thorns were piercing his body. He raised his head and met up with Yang Yan's gaze. That one gaze made the boy's heart tremble violently.

The boy walked away quickly, leaving behind a figure who seemed to be running away.

Xie Chengzhou looked at the leaving figure of the boy without the slightest worry. He originally was only looking for a fun toy anyways. He turned his head and said with a smile to Yang Yan, "You scared my person just now."

Xie Chengzhou only said that after the boy left, obviously not caring about him. Yang Yan's expression did not have any waves.

"If you're looking for a stand-in, at least look for a high-quality one. How did you become interested in one like this?" Yang Yan's words contained satire.

Xie Chengzhou ignored Yang Yan's satire. Between friends, it wasn't to the point where you couldn't make jokes like this.

"I was looking for something like this. After all, it's a fake. It can't be compared with the real one." Xie Chengzhou looked in the direction where Xu Ze left, his eyes gradually darkening.

Yang Yan didn't continue to talk. In his opinion, Xie Chengzhou couldn't be counted as a real threat. Even if Xie Chengzhou really wanted to fight him for Xu Ze, he didn't think Xie Chengzhou would be his opponent.

Over by the barbecue, some of the meat was done. Cao Mingyong came over to tell the two of them to stop talking and eat some barbecue.

Cao Mingyong looked around the two of them and found that their little lovers were gone. He made a joke at the time: "Both of your lovers are not here? Aren't you afraid that the two of them will hook up?"

Both Xie Chengzhou and Yang Yan gave Cao Mingyong a cold look. Those gazes seemed to say "Pour the water in your brain out".

Xu Ze walked forward all the way, though he didn't walk fast since the mountain road was uneven. He also didn't want to go too far, just looking around, that's all. Xu Ze took slow steps. Since his stomach was bearing one more person, he had to walk carefully to not trip himself.

Walking to a little hill, Xu Ze stopped. The grasses on the hill were all withered and yellow, feeling quite soft when stepped on. Xu Ze looked around and found that the location was good. The view in front was wide, allowing the undulating mountains in the distance to come into view.

Compared to a crowded environment, Xu Ze actually preferred quietness. He sat down on the grass and enjoyed the fresh air as well as this rare peace and tranquility.

The sun was shining and the warm wind was blowing on his body. The light blows made him feel a little drowsy again.

There just so happened to be a short tree nearby. Xu Ze got up, walked over, and leaned on the tree before he closed his eyes again.

The rest here was different from the previous one in the car. The sunlight landed on his body as if it was wrapped around by the sun.

The weather was warm and the down jacket now seemed a little hot, so Xu Ze unbuttoned it to reveal the light-colored sweater inside. He lowered his head to look at his belly. His belly was bulging as his palms gently covered it. As if the little guy inside was sensing something, he quietly swam around in Xu Ze's belly.

It seemed that he was blowing bubbles again. Before, Xu Ze thought that the baby was breathing in his stomach. Afterward, he checked the Internet and found that the baby was not breathing, but was using his mouth to play with the amniotic fluid.

It could be seen that this was a lively little guy. They should be able to meet in July next year. Xu Ze hoped that time could pass a bit faster.

After sitting beside the tree for a while, Xu Ze stood up since his waist was a little uncomfortable from always sitting. He rubbed his waist and after that Xu Ze started to walk back.

After walking for about a few minutes, a person appeared in front of him. Xu Ze was a little surprised when he saw a person coming. He thought it should be Yang Yan, but he didn't expect it was someone else.

Though if he thought about it, it seemed that he could understand why.

The boy was Xie Chengzhou's lover. Being told that he looked like himself, anyone a little smarter could think of a question. After all, Xie Chengzhou didn't hide how he stared at him. Everyone could clearly see that Xie Chengzhou had ideas about him. The boy being able to see this shouldn't be surprising either.

Xu Ze paused for a while then walked towards the boy. He wasn't worried that the boy would do something to him. If the boy wasn't stupid, he should know that there was no point in that at all.

It's just that when the two walked closer, Xu Ze saw a familiar expression again. Previously, the boy looked at him with this kind of infatuated eyes, but at that time the boy restrained himself. Unlike now, those pairs of eyes stared at Xu Ze without any disguise. It was all lovestruck.

This made Xu Ze feel strange. Wasn't this person Xie Chengzhou's lover? Showing such an expression to him, it wasn't to the point that he fell in love at first sight with him right?.

It felt quite strange to think about.

"Hello, my name is Jiang Li." The boy was a little shorter than Xu Ze, so he raised his head slightly to talk to Xu Ze.

"Hello." Xu Ze lightly smiled and then reported his own name.

"They asked you to come find me?" Xu Ze asked.

The eyes of the boy named Jiang Li flickered. His lips moved, as if to want to nod and say yes, but then he suddenly shook his head.

"No, I wanted to come myself." The boy lowered his eyes and stared at the land under his feet. He suddenly didn't dare to look up at Xu Ze's face.

He was already attracted by Xu Ze's unusual outstanding appearance even after being so far apart before. Jiang Li never realized before that he would fall in love with someone in an instant.

Even if he was someone else's lover, even if the one he liked was another person's lover, the moment his eyes met Xu Ze's, Jiang Li thought that he heard the sound of snowflakes falling from the sky.

That was the most beautiful voice he had ever heard in his life.

He couldn't control the trembling in his heart, so he made an excuse to leave and then secretly met Xu Ze. He didn't have any other intentions, he just wanted to get to know Xu Ze, wanting to let Xu Ze know that there was such a person like him.

Xu Ze's small smile was very gentle, his smile was also very gentle. The sun surrounded him, melting into his eyes.

That face was so dazzling, causing Jiang Li not to dare to have eye contact with Xu Ze for a while.

Seeing that Jiang Li's ears were slightly red, Xu Ze was stunned for a moment and then he understood what was going on. The lover who Xie Chengzhou got actually liked him. Xu Ze had never encountered such a situation before. He wondered what expression Xie Chengzhou would express if he found out.

Xu Ze's heart could see clearly, but he wouldn't give any response to Jiang Li's goodwill.

"How long have you been with Xie Chengzhou?" Xu Ze didn't really care about this. He just used it to let Jiang Li understand his identity, to not be someone else's lover yet have good feelings towards someone else.

Xie Chengzhou was someone Xu Ze had been in contact with for a while, so he could guess that he probably was not that generous.

As soon as Xu Ze said this, Jiang Li fiercely raised his head. He looked at Xu Ze's bright clear eyes. At that moment, he suddenly realized why Xu Ze made Xie Chengzhou so obsessed, even finding a substitute that looked like him.

"About more than a month." The light in Jiang Li's eyes slowly dimmed. He realized that even if he didn't follow Xie Chengzhou, there was no way he could be with Xu Ze. For someone like him, he could only watch secretly from a distance.

Getting too close, the light on the other party made Jiang Li feel ashamed.

"That's not too long! You look quite young." Xu Ze said with a smile. He didn't smile so much when facing Yang Yan and the others. He only did not mind because he seemed to see a little shadow of the original host in the boy, so Xu Ze subconsciously showed a gentle side to him.

"I'm just a freshman this year." Jiang Li whispered, following right next to Xu Ze. He didn't dare to look directly at Xu Ze, only secretly looking at him from the corner of his eye.

Xu Ze found out but did not expose it.

The two returned on the original road. Nothing happened at first, until later when Xu Ze felt uncomfortable while walking. He didn't think it was a big problem, thinking to endure it. As a result, his stomach suddenly started to hurt. While the pain was lighter than before, at the same time Xu Ze's hands and feet gradually started to feel soft and weak.

Xu Ze squatted on the ground clutching his stomach. Jiang Li saw Xu Ze suddenly didn't keep up so he turned around and found the abnormality. He hurriedly ran over to inquire about the situation in a panic.

Xu Ze's entire body felt uncomfortable, even a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Jiang Li tried to comfort Xu Ze, but Xu Ze waved his hand and pushed him away. He asked Jiang Li to call someone to come over. He originally wanted to say Yang Yan, but when he got up, a burst of dizziness hit Xu Ze. Xu Ze sat on the ground, biting his lips with a distressed expression.

Jiang Li only had Xie Chengzhou's phone number, so he called Xie Chengzhou.

"Are you lost?" Xie Chengzhou asked on the other side.

"Brother Xie, something happened to Xu Ze!" Jiang Li's voice sounded panicked.

There was a pause on the other side, and then Xie Chengzhou's tone suddenly sank: "What's going on? Where are you guys right now?"

"I'm not too clear either. Xu Ze's stomach suddenly started hurting and crouched on the ground. He asked me to call someone."

"Stand there and don't move, I'll come over immediately. Help me take care of him." Xie Chengzhou guessed what was going on over at Xu Ze's side after a little thought, so he urged Jiang Li.

"En." Jiang Li nodded hurriedly.

As the phone hung up, Jiang Li squatted beside Xu Ze. He didn't know what was going on. Seeing Xu Ze's face turning pale and that he couldn't help at all, his heart was very anxious.

On the other side, Xie Chengzhou hung up the phone and set off immediately. He didn't have the time to tell Yang Yan, so Yang Yan didn't know that Xu Ze had an accident.

Xie Chengzhou came quite quickly and fortunately Xu Ze didn't walk too far. Xie Chengzhou shouted while looking for the two. Jiang Li heard the voice, stood up, waved, and shouted "this way".

Xie Chengzhou ran over. When he got to Xu Ze, he saw him sitting on the ground with an ugly expression. He didn't say another word and picked Xu Ze up. Jiang Li wanted to say something, but when Xie Chengzhou stared at him with a cold gaze, he didn't dare to say a word.

Hugging Xu Ze, Xie Chengzhou hurried back to the picnic spot. Yang Yan found that Xie Chengzhou was holding a person in his arms. After seeing clearly that it was Xu Ze, Yang Yan's face became terrifying to the extreme as he hurried over.

Seeing Xu Ze's pale face and pained expression, then seeing Xu Ze clutching his stomach, Yang Yan guessed that something happened to Xu Ze.

He looked negatively at Xie Chengzhou, who was clearly smirking.

Yang Yan went to pick up Xu Ze, wanting to embrace Xu Ze back. However, Xie Chengzhou turned around, not letting Yang Yan touch Xu Ze.

Yang Yan's eyes were full of raging winds and waves. He stepped over and wanted to forcibly grab him back, but when he noticed Xu Ze's furrowed brows, his outstretched hand slowly fell back down.

"Go to the hospital!" Yang Yan said.

Xie Chengzhou carried the person into his car and placed him in the back seat. Yang Yan then quickly sat in and hugged Xu Ze back into his arms.

Xie Chengzhou looked at Yang Yan's gloomy eyes, only thinking that it was really funny.

"You know that he has your child, yet you let him walk around by himself. Yang Yan, if you can't take care of him well, you can give him to me. I don't even mind letting your child call me dad!" Xie Chengzhou sat down in the front driver's seat, backed out the car, and then drove down the mountain.

Xie Chengzhou said this on the road.

Yang Yan raised his eyes, his eyes were red, his voice cold and stern: "The child's dad will only be me! It will never ever be your turn!"

There was clear tension between the two.

"That might not be the case." The corner of Xie Chengzhou's lips smiled.

Just when Yang Yan wanted to reply with "Don't dream in broad daylight", a voice suddenly appeared.

"All of you shut up!"

Xu Ze was originally uncomfortable. Now that he's even hearing two people arguing right in his ear, he wanted to blow up both of their dog heads.

The two people who were coldly looking at each other stopped talking because of Xu Ze's sudden shout.

The two looked at Xu Ze, who's beautiful face had no expression. At that moment, it seemed that if the two of them said one more word, he would immediately say 'stop the car' and get out.

A breath of anger was blocked in Yang Yan's chest, and he couldn't vent because of Xu Ze. He couldn't be angry with someone who was pregnant with his child.

Everything that happened right now had made Yang Yan's anger increase exponentially. Xu Ze suddenly had an accident, yet even though Xu Ze had his phone number, he refused to contact him first. Instead, he called Xie Chengzhou and asked Xie Chengzhou to pick him up.

Didn't Xu Ze say that he had no interest in Xie Chengzhou at all? Then what was the situation right now? Being right in front of him, yet asking Xie Chengzhou to carry him.

He slept in the same bed with Xu Ze every night. Yet when Xu Ze had a problem, the first person that came to his mind was not him.

Yang Yan's eyes were dark and unclear as he slowly exhaled. He pressed the tip of his tongue against his teeth, staring at the back of Xie Chengzhou, who was driving in front. If it weren't for the fact that they were still on the road, Yang Yan wanted Xie Chengzhou to get out of the car and directly fight him.

Just as Yang Yan thought of this, his body suddenly lightened. Xu Ze, who was originally leaning in his arms, got up and left before sitting back down.

When Yang Yan's stunned gaze chased after him, Xu Ze didn't even bother to give Yang Yan a look, only leaving the side of his indifferent face toward Yang Yan.

Yang Yan clenched his fists so hard that his phalanx almost made a crackling sound. The back of his hand was protruding with blue veins, and the wind and waves were rolling under his eyes.

Sitting with Yang Yan, although he didn't turn his head to see what was going on by Yang Yan, Xu Ze had a keen sense of perception and knew that Yang Yan's expression would be ugly. His mood would be even worse, but Xu Ze's mood was also not that good.

He already was not feeling well and his head was dizzy, so he just wanted some immediate silence. Yet in the end, what did these two do? Even knowing that something happened to his body, they still had to fight right in front of him and even argued about who he and his child belonged to. Xu Ze couldn't feel their respect for him nor how much they really liked him. He only felt that in the eyes of these two, he and the baby were commodities.

Yes, that's right. He was exchanging the baby for 10 million yuan, but that was with preconditions.

If he could have aborted the child and not endangered his life, Xu Ze would not have any hesitation.

The key point was that he was not in good health and there was a certain danger to his life if he aborted the child. Xu Ze has never wanted to excuse himself from loving money. He never denied that he loved money.

But at any time like Xu Ze's current situation, there was a difference between passiveness and activeness. He could take the initiative to sleep with Yang Yan, but if Yang Yan dared to force him, then being peaceful or not wouldn't even matter.

Even if Xu Ze was penniless one day, he still would not be interested in being with any one of them. He loved money, but he still had his own rules.

Leaning on the car seat, Xu Ze put his right hand on his abdomen. The pain was relieved a lot compared to the previous time in the woods. Xu Ze guessed that this might have been him exercising too much.

It looked like an appropriate amount of exercise meant not climbing up a hill. He had to minimize such walks in the future.

Xu Ze leaned his head back as he closed his eyes and rested, ignoring the other two people in the car. Whatever they were thinking, it had nothing to do with him as long as they didn't disturb him.

There was a pregnant person in the car, so Xie Chengzhou deliberately drove the car smoothly. After the car went down the mountain, he drove into the city and towards the hospital.

The obstetrician who was in charge of Xu Ze was currently busy, so Xu Ze sat on the seat in the corridor and waited, while two people stood beside him.

Both of them stood by Xu Ze's side like door gods. The people who came here for checkups were all pregnant women. Three young men suddenly appear and they look more handsome than the next. Even just standing/sitting there, ignoring how cold their expressions were, it was just like a beautiful painting.

Especially the one who was sitting. When someone passed by, their eyes fell on Xu Ze involuntarily. Then the pedestrian would be curious, wondering what kind of girl could become Xu Ze's girlfriend. With such an outstanding appearance, most girls would feel ashamed when they stood by his side.

After waiting for more than half an hour, the doctor came.

The doctor walked out and before Xu Ze even got up, the two men beside him went up to surround the doctor. The two men didn't seem to notice the other person. As a result, their shoulders collided with each other. After the collision, they turned their heads in sync, their eyes containing sparks as they looked at each other coldly.

The doctor of course knew Xie Chengzhou. After all, the hospital was the industry invested by the Xie family.

But he saw the unusual atmosphere of tension between Xie Chengzhou and Yang Yan. The doctor has seen a lot of situations in the hospital and from the hostile expressions between the two people, he can guess a little bit of the situation in an instant.

Then the doctor shook his head inwardly. Young people nowadays really have quite colorful love lives.

While the two faced each other, the doctor bypassed them directly. He walked up to Xu Ze and saw that Xu Ze didn't seem to be looking very well, so he asked Xu Ze, "Your stomach feels uncomfortable right?"

Xu Ze stood up slowly. When he got up he shook a bit, so Yang Yan hurried over to support Xu Ze.

Xu Ze glanced at Yang Yan as he said thank you to him. After thanking him, Xu Ze took his arm away from Yang Yan's hand. Xu Ze ignored Yang Yan's changing face and turned to the doctor.

"En, I just walked around the outskirts mountains for a while. When I returned, I suddenly started to have a dull pain, and my head was inexplicably dizzy…" Xu Ze described his physical condition in detail.

The doctor nodded and asked Xu Ze to go inside with him for an examination first.

Yang Yan and Xie Chengzhou were also there during the examination. They stood side by side, but no one paid any attention to the other. What happened today could be said, to a certain extent, to have created some cracks in the friendship between the two.

First, some routine examinations were done and then Xu Ze lay down on the examination table. His clothes were lifted up on his body, his abdomen was exposed. A small and clear figure quickly appeared on the color Doppler ultrasound screen.

Compared to the last examination, it seemed to be a bit bigger again. The little guy was curling up his little body, and at some point his little hands seemed to be moving.

Yang Yan stared at the screen without blinking. Meanwhile Xie Chengzhou saw this picture for the first time, his heart being equally shocked. At this time, a thought appeared in Xie Chengzhou's heart. If only he could meet Xu Ze first, otherwise at this time, the little guy on the screen might have been his baby.

Xie Chengzhou looked away from the screen and turned to Xu Ze, who was lying flat. If it was said that he only had a playing around mentality on Xu Ze before, on this day, in this color Doppler examination room, some changes occurred deep inside Xie Chengzhou's heart.

This change made it clear to him that maybe it was the same for Yang Yan. It was no longer just a temporary whim towards Xu Ze. Such a person was unique and one of a kind. There was no way there could be a second one in this world. Xie Chengzhou took a step forward, wanting to see Xu Ze more clearly.

Judging from the color Doppler ultrasound, the baby was healthy and there was no problem. The doctor also carefully observed the baby's fetal movement and saw everything was normal.

As for why Xu Ze suddenly suffered from abdominal pain, according to the information provided by Xu Ze, one reason was that he exercised too much by going hiking. There was another reason that could not be ignored. That was Xu Ze's physical condition. Xu Ze has two sets of reproductive organs in his body. To be precise, the female set had just matured, yet soon became pregnant with a child within a short time. The organs were relatively fragile, so to a certain extent there may be a risk of miscarriage.

Regarding this point, the doctor did not conceal it and directly made it clear to Xu Ze, Yang Yan, and Xie Chengzhou.

When Yang Yan heard that there was a risk of miscarriage, he walked over in a hurry, fiercely grabbed the doctor's hand and asked him to repeat it again.

Thin strings of red blood appeared in Yang Yan's eyes, the entire person seemed to be on the verge of exploding. The tone at that time gave the doctor a feeling that if he really said it again, maybe Yang Yan would immediately attack him.

Although Yang Yan was younger than the doctor, he was stronger than the doctor no matter in terms of height or strength. The doctor was really nervous and his heart trembled fiercely.

Walking down from the examination table, Xu Ze took a tissue to wipe the examination fluid off his abdomen. After wiping he threw the tissue into the trash can beside him.

Then Xu Ze came to Yang Yan's and the doctor's side. He grabbed Yang Yan's hand and at the same time stared at him coldly. His eyes were apathetic, but the strength in Yang Yan's hand slowly loosened. After knowing that Xu Ze might have a miscarriage, he didn't dare at all to exert any force on Xu Ze now.

"Sorry doctor, are you okay?" Xu Ze apologized to the doctor for Yang Yan.

Facing Xu Ze's warm smile, the tone the doctor had just raised dropped a little this time.

"It's alright, try your best to pay attention when you go back. Be careful not to fall and don't do excessively strenuous exercise either, let alone things like mountain climbing. Your constitution originally was not suitable for pregnancy, so you must rest more to nurture the fetus." The doctor talked to Xu Ze about some important considerations.

Maybe miscarriage was a dangerous thing in the eyes of the doctor and the other two, but it wasn't much for Xu Ze because he knew some things. He was not the original host. When he transmigrated, he saw some future trajectory of destiny belonging to the original host.

In that trajectory, the child lived steadily in the original host's belly. Later, when the original host knew that he was pregnant, he run to the hospital to have an abortion. The child was only aborted at that time and not accidentally miscarriged. Maybe does not necessarily mean definitely.

At the same time, Xu Ze had a secret hunch. He knew that the child would be born healthy .

Sometimes Xu Ze would wonder why he came to this world. He didn't think he just transmigrated here just casually. There must be a reason for coming here.

If that was really the case, Xu Ze pondered, perhaps bringing this child safely into this world was his mission.

Xu Ze put his hand on his stomach gently. As the baby grew up day by day, Xu Ze could feel the heaviness of his abdomen.

This body was not his, and the child was also not his. He just accidentally became a father, that's all.

But now he was the one who was bearing the child. The one who was spending every day with the child was him. Xu Ze was not a completely cold-hearted person. He had no feelings for Yang Yan, but gradually he had some feelings for the child.

As for after the child was born, whether Xu Ze would be able to immediately leave after taking the money, Xu Ze was not worried about this issue. No one knew himself better than him. He could be easily moved, but he could also easily cut ties.

Welp, rip Yan Yang. *Lights a candle*

After leaving the hospital, Xu Ze walked in front while two people followed behind.

Both of their gazes were fixated on Xu Ze. If it were someone else being fought over by these two, they most likely would have a difficult time choosing. After all, they were both rich and handsome.

It's a pity that Xu Ze's heart was like a mirror. He was completely spotless.

Turning around, Xu Ze looked at Xie Chengzhou. Because he was looking at Xie Chengzhou and not Yang Yan, Yang Yan clenched his fists again and his fingernails sunk into his palms. It seemed that only the sharp pain could restrain the constant savageness gushing out of his heart.

"Thank you for today, thank you for rushing to pick me up at the first moment after receiving Jiang Li's call. Also thank you for driving me to the hospital just now. Thank you very much." Xu Ze sincerely thanked Xie Chengzhou.

The smile hanging on Xie Chengzhou's face slowly disappeared after hearing Xu Ze's thanks.

Xu Ze thanked him politely and distantly, which meant that in Xu Ze's eyes, they didn't have much of a relationship. Thinking about it carefully, they really didn't have any relationship. The child in Xu Ze's stomach was not his, but Yang Yan's.

The corners of Xie Chengzhou's lips curved, but it was a smile that wasn't a smile. It was the first time he hated the phrase 'thank you' so much.

"No need for thanks. You can find me anytime and I'll be there when called." Xie Chengzhou said with a warm smile.

"I presume you probably still have some things to do, so I won't be taking your car to go back. I'll just call a car." Xie Chengzhou did help him, but at the same time, Xu Ze also knew what kind of thoughts Xie Chengzhou had on him. He had thanked him when he was supposed to, but other than that, Xu Ze's attitude was still the same as before. He didn't want to have any more interaction with Xie Chengzhou.

Let alone give him any opportunities or whatever.

"Let's go, it's getting late. I want to go back, lie down, and have a good rest." Xu Ze looked over to Yang Yan.

Yang Yan passed by Xie Chengzhou, leaving him behind. As he went to walk in front of Xu Ze, his eyes lined up with Xu Ze's gleaming peach blossom eyes when he looked down. Yang Yan's heart couldn't be more clear. For Xu Ze, there was no difference between him and Xie Chengzhou.

However, was there really nothing?

Yang Yan lowered his eyes and focused on Xu Ze's abdomen. The child inside was his. Just based on this point alone, Xie Chengzhou wouldn't have the slightest chance of winning if he wanted to compete with him.

Yang Yan called a high-end car with his phone. There were taxis driving by the roadside, but those taxis were generally cheap and also uncomfortable to sit on. It was better to call a high-end car. As for the cost, that amount didn't matter to Yang Yan at all.

The online car came very quickly, only taking a few minutes. Yang Yan and Xu Ze got into the car. While outside the car, Xie Chengzhou was still standing there and did not leave.

Sitting in the car, Xu Ze's gaze was straight ahead, looking forward. He did not turn to look at Xie Chengzhou, who was deeply staring at him. People like Xie Chengzhou have power and status in their families. He could get whoever he wanted, yet he had to hang on to him. There was a smile that flashed through within Xu Ze's eyes.

The car started and Xie Chengzhou was left behind.

Yang Yan glanced sideways at Xie Chengzhou behind them for a moment, then retracted his gaze without a word.

Yang Yan then turned to look at Xu Ze who was beside him. Xu Ze was pursing his lips and his eyes blinking slowly as if his thoughts had drifted to some other place.

"No need to worry too much." Yang Yan went to hold Xu Ze's hand, telling Xu Ze not to worry about his body and the child.

Xu Ze's neck turned slightly and he stared down at Yang Yan's hand that was holding his. Right before Xu Ze wanted to take his hand away, Yang Yan let go first.

"Your hand's quite cold, is it a little chilly?" Yang Yan asked, but without waiting for Xu Ze to reply, he turned around and told the driver to increase the temperature in the car.

The driver turned up the temperature and the inside of the car quickly warmed up.

The driver noticed the situation between the two boys in the back of the car. He could see that the two were probably a same-sex couple.

Judging by their age, the two were still in college. They were both handsome and attractive. When such two people fall in love together, some girls might feel sad.

The driver made some stuff up in his head for a while, before he continued to concentrate on driving.

The car stopped outside the community. They went out for a trip and originally wanted to have a good time on the mountain, yet the unexpected situation occurred, which led to the complete loss of the picnic mood and coldness solidifying on Yang Yan's face. Yang Yan brought Xu Ze back home.

Aunt Dong was cleaning the rooms. When she saw the two suddenly come back, she seemed a little curious. However, she was obviously aware of the abnormal atmosphere between the two, so Aunt Dong didn't ask any questions. She poured the two hot water, sending one cup to Xu Ze's hand.

After Xu Ze said his thanks, he took the water and drank most of it.

"If your body isn't feeling well, then you should change to sleepwear and lay on the bed." Yang Yan's gaze was heavy.

Xu Ze took another sip of water, and nodded, "En."

"I'll pour it for you." Seeing that Xu Ze was about to get up to get more water, Yang Yan motioned Xu Ze not to move and took the cup away.

After pouring more water, Yang Yan didn't give Xu Ze the water cup but stood by the sofa. Xu Ze squinted his eyes and met up with Yang Yan's eyes. Seeing the meaning in Yang Yan's eyes, Xu Ze got up and walked toward the bedroom.

The water glass was placed on the bedside table. Yang Yan brought the sleepwear from the side for Xu Ze to change into. Seeing Xu Ze change into sleepwear and sit down at the head of the bed, Yang Yan took the remote control and turned on the air conditioner. After turning it on, Yang Yan went to check the window. It was not completely closed, leaving just a tiny little gap.

After doing these, Yang Yan wanted to say something to Xu Ze but then his phone rang. Yang Yan left the room and went outside to answer the phone.

Someone from his family called him and asked him to pick up someone at the airport. His Uncle Li's daughter came back from abroad. They told him after picking her up, to have dinner together along the way.

Yang Yan furrowed his brows. It was only after the other side had urged him a few times, before he nodded and said yes.

Uncle Li's daughter?

Yang Yan vaguely remembered that there seemed to be such a person who went to study abroad a few years ago. He did not know what they wanted to do coming back at this time.

Yang Yan's car was not driven back and was still on the mountain. He called Cao Mingyong and asked Cao Mingyong to find someone to help him drive it back. He had another car, but that car was not here but at his previous residence.

Yang Yan took a taxi over to his house, switched into his car, before he drove to the airport. The person from his family sent Uncle Li's daughter's phone number, and at the same time mentioned the time she was getting off the plane.

Yang Yan didn't call that girl. It was only after the car drove over and parked in the parking lot, that he sent her a text message. He simply said to call him back after getting off the plane.

Sitting in the car, Yang Yan listened to music with headphones on. He turned off the music after listening for a while, then called Aunt Dong at home. He asked about Xu Ze's situation there.

"He is holding his phone and watching TV in his bedroom." Aunt Dong replied.

"Bring some sweets and pastries to Xu Ze." The doctor mentioned that Xu Ze's physique was not that good and his dizziness was due to anemia. So he told Aunt Dong to bring sweets to Xu Ze.

"En." Aunt Dong nodded. After hanging up the phone, Aunt Dong went to get some snacks and delivered them to Xu Ze's room.

When putting it on the bedside table, Aunt Dong mentioned one more thing. She said, "Yang Yan just called, asking me about your situation, and asked me to prepare these for you."

Xu Ze put down his phone and turned to look at the sweets that Aunt Dong brought into the room. It seemed that just looking at them was quite appetizing. Xu Ze reached out his hand and took a piece to eat. He tasted the sweet and flavourful taste when they entered his mouth. It was quite good.

"When did he leave?" Xu Ze asked while eating.

"It seems that he answered a call before leaving." Auntie Dong said.

"Will he be back for dinner tonight?"

Aunt Dong then heard Xu Ze continuing.

"I will call and ask him in a moment." The corner of Xu Ze's mouth raised to a smile.

Yang Yan smoothly picked up the person from the airport. The girl sat in the passenger seat.

As soon as she got in the car, the girl's beautiful almond eyes stared at Yang Yan's handsome manly face for several seconds, not hiding her interest in Yang Yan at all.

Yang Yan sensed it and glanced sideways at Zhong Min. Her face had not changed much compared to a few years ago. When Zhong Min appeared before him, Yang Yan basically remembered the few times he had met with Zhong Min in the past.

He saw Zhong Min stare at him without blinking. Although Zhong Min was good-looking and had a good family background, in the past Yang Yan wasn't interested in Zhong Min's type. Now that a few years had passed, his preferences had still not changed. The type he liked… Yang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly as a pair of charming, affectionate peach blossom eyes appeared in his mind. Regardless of appearance or temperament, in Yang Yan's opinion, Zhong Min was still very far from the person in his heart.

Yang Yan was very clear that his views on Xu Ze weren't because of the biased filters produced from him liking Xu Ze.

On the contrary, it should be said that when he was together with Xu Ze in the beginning, there was probably something wrong with his eyes that he actually let go of Xu Ze.

But if his eyes were better then, maybe the way he and Xu Ze got along right now wouldn't be like how it was today.

Unfortunately, the past had already become the past. Time could not go back. Yang Yan's gaze sank.

But then when he thought of Xu Ze who was living at home, Yang Yan's mouth hooked up once more. His fleeting smile was instantly captured by Zhong Min who was sitting in the passenger seat. Zhong Min wondered what happy matter Yang Yan was thinking about.

Zhong Min has studied abroad in these years and might return to China only once or twice a year. However, although the time she was back was short, Zhong Min had always known some matters about Yang Yan. She knew that Yang Yan ate a lot of men and women and that Yang Yan had constantly changed the lovers around him. If today was this one, then tomorrow was that one. It could be said that Yang Yan was quite promiscuous since none of his lovers lasted for a long time.

But recently, there was a certain matter that made Zhong Min a little curious. A friend Zhong Min knew was also in the circle that Yang Yan often played with. Zhong Min learned a lot of things from her friend, including the fact that Yang Yan seemed to have started restraining his heart recently. She also knew that he liked a certain someone and was currently living with that boy outside of school. He used to go to bars or clubs to hang out, but Yang Yan suddenly seemed to have changed into a different person. Not only did he restrain his heart, but he also restrained his body. He used to 'go out early and return late', but now it has become 'go out late and return early'.

Speaking of which, Zhong Min had always liked Yang Yan and wanted to be together with him. She fell in love with Yang Yan at first sight.

In addition, the two of them had similar family backgrounds. It could be said that they were the perfect match. In terms of appearance, Zhong Min felt that her appearance was enough to match Yang Yan's. As for Yang Yan keeping little lovers outside, Zhong Min was open-minded. She was quite aware that with a character like Yang Yan, it was obviously impossible for Yang Yan to really like someone.

There were a lot of people who had pursued Zhong Min. Each time Zhong Min would subconsciously compare them with Yang Yan. When compared, all the others were just scum. Naturally, Zhong Min was not interested in scums.

She didn't mind Yang Yan playing around outside. She wanted to be with Yang Yan because Yang Yan was excellent in other aspects. Good grades, handsome, smart, and learned everything quickly, just like someone else's family's child. In high school, Yang Yan already began to get in touch with his family's business. While others were still studying hard to get into a good university, Yang Yan, with his own strength, had already earned wealth that many people could not get even after working for their entire lives.

With such a person, Zhong Min felt that if he became her boyfriend, she would have feelings of superiority and pride.

Originally, Zhong Min wanted to wait for her graduation to find opportunities, but suddenly there was an unexpected anomaly beside Yang Yan. This made Zhong Min feel a bit of a crisis. Making use of the opportunity to return to China this time, Zhong Min planned to chase after Yang Yan.

Zhong Min had thought about these things in her heart. Before this, Zhong Min wanted to meet the person who had Yang Yan's heart. She didn't know what kind of person the other party was, actually being able to capture the prodigal heart of Yang Yan.

Zhong Min pulled the seat belt over her body then the car started. Zhong Min occasionally glanced at Yang Yan from the corner of her eye. This stunning handsome face was much more pleasing to the eye than those she had seen abroad. Although it was said that foreigners were born with a racial advantage, having long legs and heights. But other than their height and looks being passable, not saying everyone, but many people's body odor were rather strong.

The main point was that even after their body odor became heavy, they still like to spray good-smelling perfume, wanting to use them to cover up their body odor. Zhong Min belonged to the type of people with sensitive noses, so what she smelled was a mixture of body odor and perfume. Those kinds of smells, some were able to almost make Zhong Min faint.

She had absolutely no intention of staying abroad. She would come back as soon as she graduated.

The car was going fast. Yang Yan didn't take the initiative to find a topic in the middle and sat there concentrating on driving. On the other hand, Zhong Min just wanted to rest because she had just gotten off the plane. She listened to songs with her headphones on. Because she knew of Yang Yan's character, Zhong Min knew clearly what type of person Yang Yan probably liked. Although she didn't have that kind of docile character, she didn't mind acting once in a while.

Zhong Min's family had a female cousin who was a few years older than Zhong Min. Her cousin was pregnant and gave birth to a cute baby not long ago. The baby was very beautiful, practically combining the good genes of her cousin and their husband. This made Zhong Min, a person who already liked children very much, become more excited after seeing the pictures and videos of the baby.

Zhong Min's personal thoughts were that she didn't actually care who the father of the child was. She wanted to have two babies, preferably a boy and a girl, and both babies had to have her surname, being part of their Zhong family.

Zhong Min looked over at Yang Yan. Yang Yan's personal genes were very good, which was one of the reasons why Zhong Min wanted to be together with Yang Yan.

"Brother Yan, my birthday will be in a couple days. When it's time, can I invite you?" Before they arrived at her house, Zhong Min took off her headphones and asked.

Yang Yan's gaze was deep: "If I am free that day." Yang Yan did not directly refuse.

"It's alright, if you're really busy, just wishing me on my birthday would be fine." Zhong Min's tone seemed indifferent, but she had already inquired whether Yang Yan was free on her birthday or not.

Yang Yan pursed his lips. It wasn't that he couldn't see the meaning in Zhong Min's gaze when she looked at him. He believed that Zhong Min was a smart person. Some matter didn't need to be said by him, Zhong Min herself should know.

To explain everything single matter wasn't that necessary.

When the car arrived at Zhong Min's home, Zhong Min invited Yang Yan to sit upstairs for a drink. Yang Yan replied, "I still have something to do." There was indeed something he had to deal with. Yang Yan had some matters about funds that he needed to take care of.

"Then see you tonight!" Zhong Min's round almond eyes smiled gently.

On the other hand, Yang Yan's handsome face didn't have much expression. He nodded and made a sound of 'en', then turned the steering wheel and drove away.

Standing on the side of the road for a while, Zhong Min watched Yang Yan's car drive away. When he was almost out of sight, Zhong Min's expression changed slightly, becoming no longer harmless and gentle. The hook on the corner of her lips even showed some coldness.

She hasn't fought with someone else for a man yet. Under usual circumstances, it was always others that were chasing her. The target here was changed to Yang Yan, but Zhong Min felt that it was quite a challenge. People always liked things that were taken more than those that were easily obtained.

Yang Yan didn't know that Zhong Min was going to do something to snatch him. After picking up and returning Zhong Min, he drove to the company. On the way there, Xu Ze surprisingly called. When he saw Xu Ze's number, Yang Yan subconsciously wondered if Xu Ze was feeling uncomfortable again.

After answering the call, Yang Yan asked in a concerned tone, "Xu Ze, what's the matter?"

"Aunt Dong asked me to ask, will you be coming back for dinner tonight?" Xu Ze's voice was calm and did not have any fluctuation.

But because he was the one who asked this question, even if Xu Ze didn't have much emotion, Yang Yan felt a little warm in his heart.

"I won't be coming back tonight, I will be eating outside." Yang Yan said.

"En, then alright." Xu Ze called to ask Yang Yan about dinner. Since Yang Yan wasn't coming back, then the call should also be hung up.

Just as Xu Ze was about to hang up, Yang Yan suddenly asked him, "How is your body? Are you feeling better?"

"It's much better, thank you for your concern." Xu Ze curled his lips and there seemed to be laughter in his voice, but the thank you at the end obviously represented indifference.

Yang Yan was silent for a moment before he suddenly said something inexplicable: "If you have any problem in the future, call me directly and I will rush over as soon as possible."

Xu Ze was stunned for a while and realized the meaning behind Yang Yan's words. He originally didn't want to contact Xie Chengzhou at that time on the mountain, but Jiang Li moved too fast and before Xu Ze said who to call, he already contacted Xie Chengzhou in advance.

Xu Ze remembered that to explain the reason, he had already thanked Xie Chengzhou at the meeting in the car earlier. As long as Yang Yan's ears were fine, he should know that it was Jiang Li who called.

It seemed that Yang Yan was still brooding a little about Xie Chengzhou going to help him, Xu Ze couldn't help but laugh in his heart. He really didn't find out that Yang Yan was able to eat vinegar so well.

One less thing was better than one more. Xu Ze didn't want to confront Yang Yan on such a matter, so he nodded and said, "I understand."

"Have a good rest at home." After Yang Yan exhorted this sentence, he waited for Xu Ze to end the call before he hung up. Yang Yan held the steering wheel, as his eyes gradually darkened.

Unfortunately, I'll be cutting Chapter 27 into 3 parts. 8k words is too much.

To begin, I was a teacher at a school. Then one day, a group of 13-20 teenagers about 16 years old were transported into this world, to the school through a portal. They lost their memories and instead of anything else like reporting to the police, the school accepted them and I became their teacher.

Everything was normal for a while. I taught them, they learned, there were tests, they became popular, etc. Also, we were in an apocalypse, the school I'm teaching at is the only one left in the last city, and we also teach people to control their abilities because people have superpowers now.

I didn't know it was a superpower school in the apocalypse at that point of my dream, but a later part of my dream insinuated those things.

Everything was well until some people attacked the school, but more so the transmigrated class that I was teaching. We fought and I remember having a cool fight going all around the school. Only me, the students, and the attackers were at the school.

I also had multiple abilities that I used to fight, but I only remember me shapeshifting into an eagle to phase through a window on a lower floor, to reach to a higher floor to help my students. I was also in third person while I was an eagle, which was weird but ok.

Then the next part I remember was soon after helping my students, two mechs appeared and started fighting each other. There was a white-colored, sky-blue outlined mech that was controlled by 6 of my students. The other black-colored and red outlined mech was controlled by the enemies that might also be my students?

Anyways, there was an extremely cool fight scene that happened. You just have to trust me on this. There were flashing lights and space manipulation involved.

However, the white mech was losing, until it aimed a spear behind him. There was a portal there that was hidden from the red mech's view. The spear was launched and pierced through the black mech's right leg.

Now it was revealed to me(I'm in like a third person omnipotent view) that the black mech was controlled by 4 people. 4… hololive vtubers?

… Ok.

So the vtubers were Korone, Okayu, Mio, and Botan. Korone was the main person/boss of the group and the others controlled the limbs. All of them had like black, corruption cracks on their skin.

The spear had hit Mio and was now dying and crying. Korone was saddened by this while the other two were like 'meh'.

Korone went into a crazed mode and teleported everyone into the world they originally came from. However, only the captain of the white mech was transported, while me, all the other students, and the mech were still at the school.

The captain ran and hid in the large jungle world, hiding from the red mech. Until through his sci-fi hologram interface, he receives a message. He got a message from a person wanting to make a deal with him.

In exchange for all his c-graded lands and buildings(because those exist now), the person would help him survive from the red mech. The captain agreed and the person sent him a contract. However, the captain found how the contract looked to be familiar.

The person asked, "Well? Aren't you gonna sign it?"

The captain got out of his daze and replied, "Yes teacher."

Cause I was that person apparently? I was still in third person mode following the captain so I have no clue what this was all about.

Anywho, the white mech reappeared in front of the captain, who got in and went for the red mech.

As the white mech and red mech were about to fight, The End.

That's not me forgetting the rest of my dream, it was that this was apparently a novel that ended like that. But then the author was just trolling gave everyone a happy ending?

I was half-awake half-asleep so I may have made that ending part up myself rather than me dreaming about it, but oh well. This one was an interesting dream.

Currently TLing Chapter: 27
