Last Love chapter 85

But regardless, on the surface, the matter of marking seemed to have reached a consensus between the two, so the days that followed were actually quite sweet.

Wen Ke had two happy things in total. One was that Wang Jinglin quickly replied to Ye Cheng, agreeing to have a detailed discussion with them, and this attitude was quite promising. The second thing was that the first three months of pregnancy had been safely passed.

For an Omega like Wen Ke with a lower rank, the first three months were the most challenging because the reproductive system was not as robust as that of higher-rank Omegas. Getting pregnant during this vulnerable period meant that even a slight issue could lead to a miscarriage. However, the most precarious period had passed now. It could be said that, unless there was a major accident, these twins could be preserved until delivery, and the subsequent symptoms like morning sickness would also alleviate.

This somewhat relieved both Han Jiangque and Wen Ke.

Pregnancy and childbirth were indeed complex processes, with as many as ten prenatal check-ups alone.

Han Jiangque had previously booked a package at a private hospital. However, when he received the thick stack of materials, he felt dizzy, reminiscent of the despair he felt when solving math problems in high school. Finally, he followed the schedule arranged by the hospital and set more than ten reminders on his phone.

Now, at the thirteenth week, it was precisely the time for Wen Ke’s second prenatal check-up. This time, the main purpose was to draw blood for a screening report on Down syndrome.

On the way to the hospital, Wen Ke seemed listless.

For some reason, he was actually afraid of having his blood drawn. In addition, he unconsciously worried before each prenatal check-up, fearing that his reproductive system wasn’t excellent enough, which could cause problems for the kids. His mood couldn’t help but become a bit low.

When they got out of the car, the snow outside was heavy, and Wen Ke couldn’t help but shiver.

Han Jiangque quickly walked over from the other side of the car, tightly wrapping a cashmere scarf around his neck. His fingers were long, and the side profile of his lowered eyes looked distortedly beautiful.

In the midst of the falling snowflakes, the slow process of Han Jiangque wrapping the scarf had a kind of indescribable romance.

Wen Ke lifted his head, unable to resist wanting to get closer to Han Jiangque.

However, as he leaned in, Han Jiangque suddenly blushed slightly. He stopped the action, looking at Wen Ke somewhat helplessly.

“What’s wrong?”

After a good while, Han Jiangque shyly raised his eyes to look at Wen Ke and said softly, “Xiao Ke, your belly is pressing against me.”

He spoke and couldn’t help but use his hand to gently touch Wen Ke’s protruding belly through the down jacket.

The belly of the Omega pregnant with twins grew too quickly. Last month, it wasn’t very obvious even in thick winter clothes, but this month it was already hard to hide. So, when Wen Ke got closer to him, his soft belly would press against him first. Even in the cold weather, it felt warm, as if touching the pouch of a kangaroo with a cub.

With a strange association in his mind, Han Jiangque felt his face inexplicably hot.

Wen Ke couldn’t help but smile faintly.

This guy’s shyness was quite unique, but it was so cute that it made even this Omega want to be a bit rascally. He poked Han Jiangque’s shoulder with his finger. “Why are you being shy? Huh? Daddy.”

This address immediately made Han Jiangque’s ears turn red—

Yes, he would soon be a dad.

“Don’t say that.”

Han Jiangque deliberately made a stern face for a moment, but then couldn’t help but firmly hold Wen Ke’s hand.

When they arrived at the hospital, there were still quite a few people coming and going in the corridor.

Renxin Hospital itself was famous for its Omega Obstetrics and Gynecology Department. Whether it was pre-pregnancy physical examinations and conditioning, prenatal check-ups, or childbirth surgery, its reputation was very good, but it was also difficult to schedule. Han Jiangque had previously told Wen Ke that he happened to know a small leader at Renxin, so they managed to snatch a spot.

They arrived a bit early, so they sat in the waiting room on a corner sofa, and since the hospital’s air conditioning was quite warm, Wen Ke felt a bit sleepy after sitting for a while. He leaned on Han Jiangque’s shoulder and dozed off. Pregnant Omega tended to be sleepier than usual during pregnancy.

After sleeping for a while, he felt thirsty again and mumbled softly to Han Jiangque that he wanted to drink milk tea.

“Then I’ll go to the coffee shop on the next floor and buy it for you.”

Han Jiangque stood up and said, reminding him before leaving, “I’ll be back soon, you wait for me here.”

Tall and handsome, coupled with the overly dominant scent of alcohol, Han Jiangque was particularly eye-catching in this place filled with pregnant Omegas.

Wen Ke could somewhat feel many pairs of eyes glancing at him, with a seemingly subtle curiosity to see what kind of Omega was by the side of an S-rank Alpha like Han Jiangque. He had often sensed this kind of probing and curious gaze when he went out with Han Jiangque before—

In the eyes of others, they probably seemed really mismatched.

Wen Ke couldn’t help but lower his eyes with a bit of helplessness, gently touching his own belly.

But he was still very sleepy, and he really couldn’t think too much about it. In a daze, he closed his eyes again.

In the half-dream and half-awake state, Wen Ke vaguely heard many chaotic footsteps coming and going. At this moment, he could faintly hear two voices arguing not far away.

“Jiang Fei, baby, don’t say these things here…”

The voice speaking was indeed very familiar.

But in his drowsiness, Wen Ke couldn’t recall who it was, only feeling that this person was trying hard to suppress emotions, seemingly wanting to comfort another person.

“Why not? I want to say it now.” A sharper voice immediately sounded, “Is your family sick? Do they think I have a problem? The test results are out now, and I’m a B-level Omega, higher than your rank, and very healthy. Don’t blame me. Let’s make things clear now, Zhuo Yuan. Whose fault is it that we can’t have a child? Yours or mine? Why don’t you get checked?”

“Shut up, Jiang Fei.” The person who spoke first was obviously touched in a sore spot. His tone suddenly raised a few degrees, and even his tone became sinister. “I’m giving you face, right? Why can’t we talk about this when we get home? Why embarrass ourselves here?”

This argument made Wen Ke’s heart tremble a bit.

Suddenly, he went back to a few years ago, during the time when he couldn’t conceive. He had almost been forced by Jiang’s mother to undergo various examinations day and night. Every time he saw the letter E, he felt like he was being mercilessly whipped.

He had tried to persuade Zhuo Yuan to undergo a checkup as well, but as a result, Zhuo Yuan’s parents immediately turned hostile and treated him coldly for a month or two, as if suspecting their Alpha as a low-level Omega was a grave fault.

Thinking about those things now felt scary, like being trapped in a loop of self-doubt and self-deprecation, unable to find a way out.

Unexpectedly, others were also bearing the same accusations.

As Wen Ke thought about this, suddenly a chill ran down his spine, and he realized a detail that had been ignored—

Zhuo Yuan?

The name that Omega mentioned just now—wasn’t it Zhuo Yuan?

He suddenly woke up completely, abruptly turning his head towards the direction of the voice to confirm. However, as soon as he turned his head, he was already regretting it inwardly.

Whether it was Zhuo Yuan or not, it had nothing to do with him. If it really was Zhuo Yuan, he had even less reason to look.

But it was too late. When he turned his head, he saw Zhuo Yuan, wearing a gray-blue coat, speaking in his direction. At that moment, their eyes met,

Zhuo Yuan’s gaze initially carried a trace of annoyance, clearly still immersed in the emotions of the argument just now. When he saw Wen Ke’s face, it was full of impatience.

But then, his gaze gradually lowered, eventually staying blankly on—

Wen Ke’s protruding belly.
