Evil Love Appears chapter 154
Extra Pregnancy 19
It wasn’t yet fully bright outside, which should be the best time for a deep sleep. However, accompanied by a few cries of “Wah, wah,” the familiar and enticing sound of a baby’s cry rang out, and Xu Jiale, almost startled awake, quickly opened his eyes.
Early parenting was, in fact, a reverse domestication of human offspring by their fathers—no matter what, he would quickly wake up upon hearing Zhifei’s cries. It had become his instinctive response and muscle memory.
Winter had arrived in City M. Although the underfloor heating at home was always on, Xu Jiale still rubbed his hands together when he crawled out of the bed. Then, he hurriedly walked in the dark to the baby crib next to the bed, where the little baby with tearful eyes, waving two small hands, was picked up into his arms.
“Sweetheart, Sweetheart…”
Xu Jiale’s voice was very soft as he patted Zhifei’s back and whispered, “Don’t cry, don’t cry. Let Daddy see… where does it hurt.”
Due to having been fed just over two hours ago, it shouldn’t be hunger. Although he was sleep-deprived himself, whenever he saw Zhifei’s teary face, a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
The little one had grown gradually after coming home. The snow-white skin was soft to the touch, giving a plushy sensation. Inheriting the facial features of his Omega father, the small face, big, round, and bright eyes, and the slightly upturned red nose when crying made him particularly adorable.
He was Xu Jiale’s little angel, the most beautiful little angel in the world.
But even though his heart was tingling with affection, Xu Jiale’s actions were cautious, as if stealing something—of course, it was because, in this household, the troublesome ones were not just Zhifei alone.
But even with such caution…
“Xu Jiale… are you awake?”
A sleepy voice with a nasal tone came from behind.
“…Oops.”
Xu Jiale’s back instantly stiffened.
Even though he often put earplugs on Fu Xiaoyu in the middle of the night, it still didn’t work well. “Baby… go back to sleep. It’s okay.”
While gently shaking the still crying Zhifei, Xu Jiale sat down on the bed. Unsurprisingly, the Omega with disheveled hair and a fierce morning look peeked out from the quilt. As he hadn’t fully woken up, the air of discontent from getting out of bed was particularly strong—
His expression looked really gloomy.
Xu Jiale couldn’t help but smile helplessly.
“So quickly hungry again?” Fu Xiaoyu frowned, rubbing his eyes with his fingers.
He impatiently pulled off the earplugs, and probably didn’t hear what Xu Jiale said before. Plus, he wasn’t fully awake yet, so he had a particularly bad morning mood—
The expression on his face was truly sour.
Xu Jiale couldn’t help but laugh in helplessness.
“Baby.” Xu Jiale couldn’t resist and kissed Fu Xiaoyu’s cheek heavily. “He probably isn’t hungry yet. I think he needs a diaper change. You go back to sleep for a while.”
“…?” Fu Xiaoyu didn’t say anything. In this short moment, his eyelids drooped again.
Rubbing his head, Xu Jiale gently pushed him back into the bed, and then quietly left the bedroom.
Due to breastfeeding, postpartum Omegas couldn’t sleep well. Xu Jiale didn’t want to disturb Fu Xiaoyu, and fortunately, Murong Jingya and Xu Lang, who lived next door, woke up early. So, holding Zhifei, he walked into their room, intending to change the baby’s diaper there.
Murong Jingya was originally reading a newspaper. Seeing Xu Jiale holding Zhifei coming in, although his face didn’t show much expression, his eyes looking at Zhifei still revealed a gentle light.
Of course, he liked Zhifei.
It’s just that most of the time spent here, Zhifei was snatched away by Fu Jing. Since he couldn’t bring herself to compete with Fu Jing, and due to his personality, he really wasn’t accustomed to holding babies, most of the time, he just silently watched.
“Where’s Xiaoyu? Still sleeping?” Xu Lang stood up and asked, “What about you? Your complexion doesn’t look good. Actually, you could put the baby in our room during the night.”
“I’m fine. He just woke up for a while, but he’s not in a good mood, so I want to let him sleep a bit more.”
As Xu Jiale explained like this, but unexpectedly, as soon as he placed the crying little one on the bed, a creaking sound of the door being pushed open—
The three turned their heads, and sure enough, it was Fu Xiaoyu coming in again.
“Dad.”
Fu Xiaoyu was still in his pajamas, greeted with a bit of listlessness.
Of course, he didn’t sleep well. In fact, in the few months after the baby was born, as a father, it was really hard to get a full night’s sleep.
Xu Jiale bit his teeth helplessly. “Why don’t you sleep a bit more?”
Fu Xiaoyu didn’t say anything, just silently stood by his side—
The meaning was quite obvious; he wanted to watch Xu Jiale finish changing Zhifei’s diaper.
“Don’t cry, Zhifei, don’t cry, Daddy will take a look, Daddy will take a look.”
Helpless, Xu Jiale could only lower his head to deal with his crying baby first.
He gently opened Zhifei’s swaddle, and then cautiously started to remove the diaper covering the little one’s white buttocks—
An odor instantly permeated the air.
At the moment when Xu Jiale had to get close, he even felt the Omega next to him unconsciously take two steps back.
Damn it, Fu Xiaoyu.
You find it smelly, huh?
However, Xu Jiale couldn’t help but laugh when he looked at Zhifei, who was still crying. He softly said, “My angel made a stinky one, Daddy will wipe it for you, little stinker.”
With a wet wipe in his hand, in the pervasive odor, Xu Jiale gently wiped the baby’s buttocks one by one.
Just as the task was about to be completed, Fu Xiaoyu, who had already taken two steps back, suddenly pulled his arm and whispered, “Xu Jiale, you must remember to look at… the color of that…”
This was also parenting knowledge that Fu Xiaoyu had found online: by observing the color, one could determine if the baby’s digestive system was healthy.
Even though Fu Xiaoyu had learned a lot, when it came to practical application—
He would secretly take two steps back.
“…” Xu Jiale took a deep breath.
But what else could he do? He could only bow his head silently and flip through the diaper bag of Xu Zhifei. After double-checking, he closed it again, then turned to Fu Xiaoyu and said, “Checked, he’s healthy.”
Only then did the Omega nod in satisfaction.
You’re really troublesome.
Fu Xiaoyu.
Helplessly, Xu Jiale thought.
Although he already had Nanyi, Xu Zhifei was truly an exceptionally crying troublemaker. Cried when hungry, cried when the diaper was wet, cried when the sock’s thread got stuck in the toe, cried when no one was holding him.
Cry, cry, cry, cry, earth-shattering and heart-wrenching.
With such a crybaby son, there happened to be an Omega with an exceptionally quirky axis.
Fu Xiaoyu—
An Omega with an exceptionally strong parenting instinct but completely lacking the corresponding parenting skills.
Even though Xu Jiale prepared earplugs for him, as soon as Zhifei cried, he always felt something. For so long, Fu Xiaoyu insisted on feeding Zhifei himself.
However, every time he fed him, it seemed like he was still immersed in a state of confusion. Xu Jiale never trusted him to feed Zhifei alone and always had to hold him in his arms before letting him hold Zhifei.
The same for diaper changes. Although he hadn’t learned to change Zhifei’s diaper after so long, whenever Xu Jiale changed it, he insisted on tagging along and had to watch Xu Jiale finish changing the diaper before leaving.
Xu Jiale couldn’t help but grit his teeth at the thought but when he turned to look at Fu Xiaoyu, his heart softened. Due to his fair skin, the prominent blue under Fu Xiaoyu’s round cat-like eyes made him look particularly weary.
Worried about everything, managed everything.
This was such a small tomcat; although he didn’t know how to do anything, he insisted on being a foreman.
It was really hard not to pamper him.
After washing his hands, Xu Jiale used his nose to rub Fu Xiaoyu’s cheek and whispered, “Baby, I’ll carry you back to the room. You’re tired, and you haven’t slept well.”
“Okay.” Xu Lang, on the side, was concerned. “We’ll take care of Zhifei for you.”
“Yeah, go back and get some more sleep.” Murong Jingya also added.
Fu Xiaoyu was indeed a bit tired. Being lifted by Xu Jiale in front of Xu Lang and Murong Jingya made him suddenly feel a bit embarrassed.
“It’s okay, we’ll take care of it ourselves.”
He suddenly insisted stubbornly.
The day gradually brightened, but because the curtains were tightly drawn, it didn’t affect their rest.
Little Zhifei lay obediently in the crib, and Xu Jiale seemed to be taking a bath. Occasionally, there was the sound of dripping water.
In such a peaceful moment, although he felt tired due to lack of sleep, Fu Xiaoyu couldn’t fall asleep. He didn’t know why; he had never thought about this issue before. But after having Zhifei, he did feel relaxed when Fu Jing helped take care of him, but once Murong Jingya and Xu Lang wanted to help, he always felt a bit nervous.
That feeling, as if he hadn’t fulfilled his duties.
What exactly these duties entailed, even he himself couldn’t explain. Perhaps being a father was too unfamiliar to him, and he, by nature, was strong-willed, so he always felt that he wasn’t doing well enough.
Any tiny thing would make him have such thoughts—
Feeling like he wasn’t such an excellent father.
Not as good as Xu Jiale.
At least, not as good as when he was being CEO Fu.
This thought made him feel depressed.
He tossed and turned in bed for a while, and the dim room made the air even more stuffy. Unfortunately, it was at such a time that Zhifei, who had just quieted down, cried again with a “wah” sound.
This time, he must be hungry.
Fu Xiaoyu couldn’t help but feel even more disheartened.
He unusually curled up facing away from the crib.
He really wanted to escape.
With closed eyes, he listened to the movements of Xu Jiale’s footsteps. It seemed that Xu Jiale hurriedly arrived at the crib from the bathroom, picking up Zhifei and comforting him affectionately.
“Baby…” Sensing that Xu Jiale had sat on the bed, but his calling voice was very, very soft, as if he was hesitating whether to wake him up.
Zhifei was hungry, and the baby’s cry made his chest ache again with confusion.
Fu Xiaoyu still opened his eyes, but for some reason, this time, he subconsciously started to unbutton his shirt, only to hesitate and lean back against the headboard.
This avoidance action was very unusual for him.
Their baby was very gluttonous, so they had to feed him many times every day.
He had always insisted on feeding him himself, not only because of his stubborn insistence on his responsibility as a father but also because when holding his baby, he could feel a sense of happiness.
But occasionally… occasionally, especially at that moment just now, he suddenly felt like a buffet plate—
“Xiaoyu?”
Xu Jiale seemed to sense something. He hadn’t had time to put on clothes yet and was holding Zhifei with only a towel wrapped.
Fu Xiaoyu, of course, knew that Xu Jiale could sense his emotions. However, because the little guy in his arms was both greedy and clingy, crying heartbreakingly if he had to wait for even one or two minutes when hungry.
This Alpha was alternating between wiping the baby’s tears and leaning in to gently kiss him, looking extremely flustered.
Xu Jiale, I don’t want to feed him.
Fu Xiaoyu thought gloomily.
He knew that Xu Jiale would be reluctant.
Exactly because of this, he especially didn’t want to say it out loud because he felt that he, who lacked a sense of responsibility, would be infuriating.
“My Xiaoyu…”
A trace of heartache flashed in Xu Jiale’s long narrow eyes.
He couldn’t help but lean forward, wanting to tuck the Omega’s head into his shoulder.
The Alpha’s voice was deep, but perhaps because of the forward-leaning posture, or maybe because he was unusually shirtless in winter, or perhaps it was because little Zhifei, who had cried for so long without being fed by his Omega dad for the first time since birth, was now angrily clamping down on the nearest and somewhat unfamiliar nipple—
At this moment, all the coincidences merged into Xu Jiale’s scream.
“Ah, don’t, sweetheart, don’t! That’s Dad’s—”
That was Dad’s sore nipple!
…
Xu Jiale was just an Alpha.
He couldn’t breastfeed.
This was something predetermined from birth.
But the human cub, swayed by hunger, didn’t understand this logic and would never easily let go of any nipple exposed in front of them.
Xu Zhifei, facing the nipple that was flatter and less sweet compared to usual, took several harsh sucks in disbelief that there was really no milk there.
“Wah…” He cried while biting, even his small eyebrows tightly furrowed, as if all his facial features were squeezed together, accusing with grievances: it tastes awful.
“Sweetheart, Daddy’s angel…”
Xu Jiale’s eyes turned red, unable to resist sniffing loudly.
His sweetheart was hungry, so heartbreaking.
But while feeling heartache, with his sore nipples, he, who couldn’t breastfeed at all, was being despised by Zhifei crying like this—
Could he blame him for having unappetizing nipples?
Xu Jiale finally looked towards the Omega on the side with a depressed expression.
“…Pfft.”
Fu Xiaoyu had actually been watching for a long time, using all his strength to restrain his mouth from turning upwards. Still, at this moment, he couldn’t help but break into laughter.
Damn Xu Jiale.
Fu Xiaoyu bit his lip to hold back a sneaky grin, angry at himself for laughing so quickly. He wasn’t sure if others had the same quirk, but he was just like that. The more gloomy he felt, the more he might get a bit irritable if he was cheered up too quickly. It made him feel a bit embarrassed, so he would immediately put on a serious face after laughing.
Fu Xiaoyu, with a stern expression, watched the Alpha by the bed, naked from the waist up, crying as he held the baby, not daring to move, looking like he was holding a bomb.
It was the first time Fu Xiaoyu had seen Xu Jiale so helpless and on the verge of tears.
Suddenly, Fu Xiaoyu lowered his head and began silently unbuttoning his sleepwear.
It looked like he was doing it reluctantly, but the moment he lowered his head, he couldn’t help but sneakily curve his lips upward.
Xu Jiale, although adept at holding the baby, changing diapers, and putting Zhifei to sleep, there were things he just couldn’t do.
Although the thought was absurd, for a moment, Fu Xiaoyu felt a little proud. Moreover, in all the time they had been together, Xu Jiale had never let him bite there.
His son was quite amazing.
Double satisfaction.
With various thoughts swirling in his mind, Fu Xiaoyu raised his chin again, hummed softly, and said, “Give him to me, I’ll feed him.”
“Ah… good, good!” Xu Jiale, who had been bitten, felt relieved as if his death sentence had been commuted when he heard this sentence. Suppressing the strong nasal sensation, he quickly handed the crying Zhifei over to Fu Xiaoyu.
This was the first time Xu Jiale had smoothly handed Zhifei to someone else since his birth.
Fu Xiaoyu had already been swollen by Zhifei’s crying, and now, feeding him felt like coming down a step.
With the room no longer filled with cries, only the sound of Zhifei sucking milk eagerly could be heard, creating a peaceful and warm atmosphere.
Xu Jiale hadn’t even bothered to put on his pants, but he quickly pulled out a T-shirt from the closet, cautiously protecting his upper body.
When he returned, Xu Zhifei, who had eaten and drunk his fill, was already sweetly asleep in Fu Xiaoyu’s arms.
The little guy’s sleeping face was innocent and innocent, making it hard to believe he was the same little devil who had cried loudly just now. His chubby face was affectionately pressed against Fu Xiaoyu’s fair chest, even in his sleep, holding onto the nipple of his Omega father like guarding a treasure.
“Xu Jiale,” Fu Xiaoyu raised his head and called, a hint of distress in his light brown eyes. He paused for a moment before continuing, “The nipple… got bitten, and it hurts.”
Because he was afraid of waking up Zhifei, his voice was very light, almost like a soft purr. While complaining in such a small voice, he instinctively and responsibly cradled his baby, gently rocking him.
This Omega was actually unaware that his most obedient, soft, and gentle moments were when he held his baby to breastfeed.
Xu Jiale couldn’t describe in words the feelings in his heart every time he saw Fu Xiaoyu like this. It was like being repeatedly kneaded by a hand, soft, sour, and a bit painful.
“Let me see.” He bent down, almost cautiously took the nipple from Zhifei’s sleeping mouth—
During the lactation period, the nipple would undergo physiological changes, and the originally light pink area would become more vivid. At this moment, that piece of flesh was glistening, and the tip seemed to be broken due to excessive sucking. Due to the difficulty of a male’s nipple being stretched, there were faint traces of blood, making it look even more pitiful.
“My baby,” Xu Jiale couldn’t help but lift his head. His voice was a bit hoarse because he was suppressing his anger.
At such a moment, the humanity of a father was somewhat suppressed by the dog nature of an Alpha—
The truth was, no Alpha could see their Omega’s nipple bitten and still act fatherly.
That brat, Xu Zhifei.
He only knew how to greedily occupy Fu Xiaoyu’s nipple all day, did he not realize how precious the place he sucked on was to his daddy?
Holding the sleeping and blissfully unaware Xu Zhifei, who had turned into a dangerous little brat in his old man’s rapidly changing heart, Xu Jiale walked outside.
Fu Xiaoyu was a bit stunned, but perhaps because Xu Jiale’s actions were really quick this time, he hadn’t reacted yet. This Alpha had already come back into the room.
“Where’s Zhifei?”
“Threw him away.” Xu Jiale said seriously, “While your dad is still asleep, I secretly threw him outside and attached a note saying: Be careful, he bites.”
