Chapter 24: Just in Time
When the two of them arrived at the residential area, Qin Wen immediately spotted Sun Kaining, who had a teasing expression on his face and a suitcase by his feet.
Qin Wen’s first thought: Is this guy moving in too?
Impossible! Sun Kaining is like a “little princess” who would want ten layers of cotton on his bed; this place can’t accommodate such a big shot.
“You insisted on having me bring it over,” Sun Kaining spoke with a perpetual hint of laughter in his voice, his eyes constantly glancing at Qin Wen, and finally, he called out properly, “Sister-in-law.”
Qin Wen stumbled, and Chi Han naturally supported his waist, surprisingly having no objection to the title, “Thanks, I’ll treat you to a meal next time.”
“I’ll hold you to that,” Sun Kaining seemed to have other matters to attend to. After completing the handover of the suitcase, he greeted them and drove off.
Qin Wen stared at the suitcase, “Whose is it?”
“Mine,” Chi Han replied, looking down at him, “You don’t like big places, so we’ll stay in this residential area for now.”
Qin Wen whispered, “So you’re moving in to live with me?”
“Of course,” Chi Han said openly, “We haven’t divorced yet.”
Qin Wen felt both happy and melancholic, unable to understand what Chi Han’s series of actions meant. But living together was undoubtedly the best choice. He couldn’t do without Chi Han now. He had originally planned to “secretly” use Chi Han’s pheromones once or twice, using inhibitors at other times. But now, the inhibitors he bought were almost going moldy, and his body had become dependent on Chi Han.
Unexpectedly, when they got home, Chi Han took something out of the suitcase, and right in front of Qin Wen, he tore it in half with a “swish,” then shredded it into pieces and threw it into the trash can.
It was the divorce agreement signed with Qin Wen’s name.
Qin Wen: “…”
Qin Wen had many questions, and at the same time, all his plans began to veer off the original track rapidly. How could he leave with Chi Han acting like this?
“Qin Wen!” Chi Han’s startled shout rang in his ears, followed by the buzzing sound fading away, and everything became clear again. He didn’t know when he had fainted, but now he was leaning in the man’s arms, closing his eyes and saying, “What am I supposed to do with you?”
Chi Han’s eyes flickered slightly, feeling a bit at a loss. He leaned in to sniff the gland area, the minty scent was still stable, but Qin Wen needed rest.
Chi Han tore up the divorce agreement, unexpectedly uprooting a deeply rooted toxic weed in Qin Wen’s heart. He had a slight fever, constantly murmuring, saying things like “bully me” and “bad,” to which Chi Han responded, “Yes, I’m a jerk, I’m bad, I won’t bully you anymore.”
Top-level Alphas might never understand the taste of love in their lifetime. They enjoy fame and status that ordinary people can only dream of, becoming increasingly numb in their constant conquests. Expanding territories gradually becomes a mantra etched into their bones. Chi Han used to be one of the best among them, crafted by God as a masterpiece for human progress, just forgetting to put a heart in during the process.
However, now Chi Han’s chest was beating clearly. After Qin Wen left, he gradually found his “heart” again. Many things didn’t need to be taught by others; once he confirmed his feelings, everything came naturally.
Qin Wen woke up in a daze, surrounded by softness. It was the pheromone entity, which had transformed into a snow wolf-like form, not as large as before, now serving as Qin Wen’s pillow. The window was slightly open, and the golden autumn sunlight was warm. Qin Wen grabbed a handful of fur, and the entity gently licked his cheek. He turned over, and the scenery outside was beautiful.
Qin Wen had lost count of how many times this had happened, giving him a dreamlike illusion.
With Chi Han’s current attitude, what should he do? Should he reveal the fact that he’s pregnant? After a fierce internal struggle, Qin Wen decided to wait a little longer.
“Click~” The door was gently pushed open. Qin Wen wasn’t wearing his glasses, but he could see Chi Han’s face clearly from this distance, though still a bit blurry.
“Chi Han,” Qin Wen called out.
“I’m here,” Chi Han stepped forward and held his hand, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
Now everything was clear, he could even see the fine stubble on the man’s chin. Qin Wen hesitated, “My eyesight… seems to have improved.”
Chi Han was momentarily stunned, “Are you sure?”
“Yes,” Qin Wen nodded, “Things at the door used to be quite blurry.”
In some cases, an Alpha’s pheromones can be more effective than medical treatment, due to the inseparable connection between them.
“Alright, don’t wear glasses for now. I’ll take you to the hospital for a check-up when we have time,” Chi Han helped Qin Wen sit up, his actions filled with an indescribable caution.
Qin Wen: “Just to check my eyes.”
Chi Han glanced at him and agreed, “Okay.”
Without glasses, Qin Wen looked different from usual. Without anything blocking them, the spring-like charm in his eyes began to stir people’s hearts. At the dining table, Chi Han discreetly stole glances at Qin Wen several times, while Qin Wen kept his head down, eating. Today’s meal was all suitable for a pregnant person, with nothing to avoid. The tomato and vermicelli soup was simply perfect, with the sourness Qin Wen liked. He rarely had such an appetite, eating while lamenting the injustice that Chi Han, who never used to touch household chores, could now cook better than him after casually learning!
“Take it slow,” Chi Han served him another bowl of soup.
“Mm,” Qin Wen finished the spring rolls, and now his appetite finally seemed like that of an adult man.
After the meal, Qin Wen couldn’t sit still. He wandered around the living room for two minutes, then half-lay on the sofa, naturally picking up Chi Han’s phone to play games.
Before long, Chi Han came out of the kitchen after cleaning up, and Qin Wen handed him the phone, “A message from Sun Kaining.”
“You can check it for me,” Chi Han went to get some tissues.
This complete trust made Qin Wen feel very pleased. He opened the message and said, “Sun Kaining is asking if you’re going to ‘Hanhai’ to play tomorrow.”
“Hanhai” is the largest entertainment club in Mo City, and not only that, but the threshold is so high it’s filled with “discrimination.” Not just anyone can get in. Let’s put it this way, even Qin Yaosheng doesn’t have an invitation.
“Are you going?” Chi Han asked Qin Wen.
Qin Wen was stunned, “Me? I don’t have…”
“I do,” Chi Han replied, “If you find it boring at home, I’ll take you to ‘Hanhai’ to play. It has all kinds of entertainment facilities.”
Qin Wen was indeed getting bored. He was naturally restless, having worked for so many years. If it weren’t for the child, he wouldn’t be resting at home. Now that his spirits were up, he wanted to do something. Hearing Chi Han’s suggestion, he agreed in a moment of distraction, “I want to go play.” Qin Wen, in a way, also wanted to test Chi Han, to see how much indulgence this person could give him.
If Chi Han knew Qin Wen’s thoughts, he would probably laugh out loud. What kind of indulgence is this…
“Reply to him, say tomorrow at one in the afternoon,” Chi Han took out some incense and a small palm-sized burner from the cabinet. The scent was light and distant. Qin Wen sniffed it a couple of times, finding it not only not unpleasant but also helpful in relieving chest tightness.
But there are many things pregnant people should avoid, so Qin Wen thought for a moment, “Isn’t this something children shouldn’t smell?”
“It’s specifically for children, especially suitable for newborns and embryos,” Chi Han explained in a steady voice, “It has a calming effect, and I thought you could use it, so I had some sent over.” This stuff isn’t easy to get, having only been developed a few years ago. The incense is just one form of it, mainly because one of its components is very rare, making it a premium product for Omega pregnancy care in high society. Chi Han got a bunch and kept it at home.
Qin Wen was reassured and didn’t doubt it, “Okay.”
The two of them shared a bed, but this time there was no dividing line. Qin Wen fell asleep quickly, and Chi Han held him in his arms, with the entity sleeping at the foot of the bed to keep Qin Wen’s feet warm. The pheromones in the room never stopped. At night, when Qin Wen had a leg cramp, Chi Han woke up immediately. Although he had no prior knowledge of these things, his massage technique for Qin Wen was very professional.
Having gone through everything, Chi Han’s precise mind remembered all the information, including the methods to deal with it.
When Qin Wen first got pregnant, he was facing a divorce, and the lack of pheromone nourishment led to his body deteriorating rapidly. A regular Omega would have miscarried long ago, but… Chi Han looked at Qin Wen’s belly. Inside was his child, and a top-level Alpha’s offspring would instinctively strive to survive, even at the cost of draining the mother. Chi Han had never feared anything, but in this matter, he was deeply concerned.
There’s still time, Chi Han told himself.
“Hanhai” is located in a prime area. When Chi Han brought Qin Wen there, they saw Sun Kaining’s car at the entrance. The staff, upon seeing Chi Han, didn’t even need an invitation and respectfully invited him in, including Qin Wen, whom Chi Han was holding tightly.
Sun Kaining was sitting on a sofa, playing dice with a group of people, with the table full of beer.
Without needing Qin Wen to react, Chi Han had already stopped ten meters away. Sun Kaining caught sight of them from the corner of his eye, looked over, and shouted, “Come on!”
Everyone turned to look, their expressions varied. Some were shocked that Chi Han had brought an Omega, while others recognized Qin Wen, including the little troublemaker, Song Kai.
The quickest to accept the situation was Song Kai. Although he was troublesome, he wasn’t stupid. At Old Master Chi’s birthday banquet, Chi Han’s nervous attitude towards Qin Wen had already made him see some things clearly.
Xu Yangcheng’s jade-like face showed a hint of surprise, and he whispered, “Chi Han seems to be quite disdainful.”
Sun Kaining: “…” What’s there to be disdainful about?
“You guys play,” Chi Han was indeed extremely disdainful. The table reeked of alcohol, and he didn’t want the hard-earned color in Qin Wen’s cheeks to be lost again, “I’ll take Qin Wen to get something to eat.”
“Hanhai” is expensive, but the food is good. The fruits are airlifted from places in season, with cherries big and bright red, sweet and sour, which Qin Wen liked very much, occasionally popping one into his mouth.
Chi Han frowned, “Won’t eating too much sour stuff make you want to vomit?”
“It will,” Qin Wen replied, “But I just want to eat.”
This kid… Chi Han glanced at Qin Wen’s belly, secretly gritting his teeth. Why are there so many issues?
Soon, Sun Kaining brought a group of people over.
