Chapter 2
The sound of the alarm clock invaded the silent apartment and ruined Qianfan's dreamy sleep. He felt a pair of tongues licking his face. He opened his eyes and saw Penpen—the first big dog he had, licking his face and Mumu, his orange cat, licking his ears.
Qianfan felt something heavy on his chest that makes it hard for him to breathe a little, and there he saw the fattest cat he had, Coco, sitting on his chest and just staring at him intently.
He groaned and tried to get up as he removed Coco from his chest. "You're heavy, don't you know that?" he murmured.
After tidying his bed and finishing showering, he cooked eggs and slices of bacon for breakfast. He also made coffee. Qianfan opened one of the cabinets to get the food for his pets and prepared it to feed them.
Sitting alone at the table, he remembers what happened to the story. It left him hanging. He's eager to know the continuation of the story. There may be a continuation because there's no way there's none, maybe a book 2 or something. He needs to find it. But the problem is, that the story doesn't have a title or the author of the book. It only has the prologue and chapters. So where is he going to find the continuation of it?
Qianfan loudly sighed. He'll search for it later on the internet after he's done with his work. If he tries to look in the library, the librarian might give him a weird look or possibly call him a weirdo since the story contains where males can give birth.
The genre of the story is like omegaverse except that they don't go to heat or rut— just normal people like betas but with 3 genders. The third gender is what they call a Ger, in omegaverse they're called omega. Those are the males with feminine features and who can give birth. In the story, they have red moles or what they called a cinnabar mole to specify that they're a ger. They can be found anywhere in the body. Light cinnabar indicates a low chance of fertility rate while a dark cinnabar indicates a higher chance of conceiving a child even after doing the deed once.
Qianfan likes that kind of genre. It's his favourite genre.
After finishing his breakfast, he dresses himself up while combing his wolf-cut hair. He then went out of his room to put his shoes on near his door.
"You guys need to behave, okay? I'm going to work now." He gives kisses to his babies and plays with them a little. The second he stood up someone knocked on his door then the sound of the doorbell followed.
He saw from his intercom the delivery guy. "Yes, what is it?" He asked when he opened the door.
"The refrigerator you ordered is already here, sir." the guy replied.
"Oh, okay! You can bring it inside." Qianfan opened his door wide but the guy only scratched his head.
Qianfan furrowed. "Why? Something's wrong?" he wondered why the man wasn't moving.
"Uhm, sir, the refrigerator is still down there. It's too heavy for me to bring it here. Can you lend me a hand?"
His mouth formed an O and noticed that the fridge isn't with the delivery guy.
"Okay, no problem." he replied.
They went down to get the fridge and worked together to lift it to his room. When they got to his apartment they put the fridge down so that Qianfan could open his door and then they were back again by lifting it inside.
While they're busy with their business, his two dogs and his orange cat slip away and go outside of his apartment.
"Penpen, Polly, Mumu!" He shouted.
"Please wait a minute, I'll just get my pets." he said with an apologetic smile to the guy.
He chases his dogs and they're already near the stairs. It will cause trouble if his dogs went to the 6th floor since the people who live under his apartment hate animals. He caught Polly who had almost been down the stairs.
"You naughty big baby!" he scolded. When he's about to latch onto Polly's collar, Penpen being the energetic dog jumped into him with so much force that caused him to lose a balance and fall down the stairs.
It is as if he was in a movie when the character knew that he was going to die—you know when it's your last minute on earth and everything around you is in slow-mo and the time stops, that's how it is.
His back hits one of the steps of the stairs like a fragile vase because he felt like he broke his ribs. Qianfan's body rolled down and his head hit the tip of the railings that made a loud noise as if someone was playing baseball and the ball is his head and the railing is the bat. It made him dizzy. When he finally landed below, he saw how the blood from his head painted the floor.
'Shit. So this is it?' He thought.
He's fighting to stay conscious but the pain from his body and head is failing him. He silently cried. If he dies now, who's going to take care of his babies? They will be left alone and he doesn't want that to happen.
And he's still young to die. He didn't even finish his bucket list and achieve his goals. AND HE NEVER EXPERIENCED HAVING A LOVE LIFE AND SEX!! WHY?!!! AT LEAST LET HIM EXPERIENCE IT FOR ONCE!!
He hates it! He hates that he's going to die a virgin and leave his babies alone.
Qianfan's ragged breathing made his dogs hollered and cats purred. "Sir!" He heard the delivery guy shout in horror. His eyes felt heavy and wanted to close.
The last thing he heard and saw was the delivery guy calling someone and his babies' whimper cries before the darkness consumed him completely.
. . . . .
Qianfan woke up feeling groggy and with his body aching as if he joined WWE and John Cena wrestled him. He groaned earning a loud gasp from someone.
"Master!" Qianfan jolted when he heard someone yell. He looks at the person who's holding into his arms. He's a guy but he has feminine features. Qianfan stared at him for seconds. He has long dark brown hair, a small buttoned nose, and small but plump lips. He has doe-shaped and dark brown eyes. It matches his hair. He's pretty and cute.
"Master, are you feeling okay now? Are you in pain?" the person worriedly asked.
'Master?' Qianfan's thought. Why is someone calling him a master?
He tried to get up and sit and that's when he noticed that he was wearing a long robe. He paused for a while.
'Wait. Didn't I fall from the stairs?'
He looked around and noticed the designs are archaic and are in a very traditional style like the houses from thousand years ago. He's slightly panicked. What is happening?!
He then landed his gaze back on the man who was standing beside the bed. He scanned the man from head to toe. He's also wearing old traditional clothes but different from what he's wearing.
"What happened to me?" he furrowed.
"You passed out from stress. That's what physician Yu said." said the guy.
'Passed out from stress? No! I didn't just pass out, I died! I freaking died!' Qianfan's fighting in his thoughts.
"Who are you?" before Qianfan could take back his words, the guy already uttered the word 'what?'
The guy pulled himself back from zoning out with his master's question. "I'm Yu Yan. Your servant. The master saved me from the brothel and gave me a name because I have none." he replied.
"Ohhh... I'm sorry, my head is still not functioning well. Maybe because of the stress like physician Yu said." Qianfan reasoned out.
'Yu Yan? His name sounds familiar. Just like the name from the book I read.'
He massaged his temples as he tried to think about the situation he was in. Qianfan calmed his nerves. He's not that dumb. He's getting a little idea of what's happening. He transmigrated. He read a lot of novels and comics about transmigration and he can't believe that such an impossible thing to happen is happening to him right now. He's in the past. It feels like time travel.
He has something about to say when a loud cry stopped him. His forehead furrowed. "Who's crying?" he confusedly asked.
Yu Yan hurriedly went to the other room in panic and he came back carrying a baby in his arms. The baby looks like a newborn.
"Master, I think he's hungry." Yu Yan said while hushing the baby and slowly rocking his arms.
'So what am I supposed to do? Feed him from my chest?' Qianfan sneered at his thoughts.
"Uhm, feed him?" Qianfan answered with an obviously-you-need-to-feed-him tone.
"But master, he needs milk from his mother for nutrients. He's still a baby."
"Then bring him to his mother." Qianfan is confused as to why the servant seems to push him to feed the baby himself when he states that it needs the milk from his mother.
The servant appears to be shocked by what he said. "B-but master, you're his m-mother." he sounds in disbelief and confused.
"Mother what?!!" the guy jolted from his yell and the baby cried louder.
"I'm sorry! Please have mercy on this lowly servant for offending master." Yu Yan suddenly kneels with his head down. He got scared when he yelled.
Qianfan unconsciously inspects his body. He touched his chest but it was flat. His hand went lower to further check himself if he became a woman but he touched something women don't have.
HE'S STILL A MAN!!!
The servant tried to peek to see his master's expression but was stunned to see his master touching himself. What is his master doing?
"Please stand..... Uhm, why am I the mother?" Qianfan asked making himself look like a fool with his question.
Even though Yu Yan's getting weird out to his master he still answered the latter. "Uhm... because y-you're a ger and you gave birth to the young master."
Qianfan's eyes widened but he tried to hide them from the servant standing at the edge of his bed because he knew he was getting suspicious of his behaviour.
He's a ger? Isn't it happening only in fiction? And wasn't he supposed to be in the past? Because there's no ger in the present time in their country, so where the fuck is he?
The baby is still crying and he can't help but feel sorry. Qianfan is not his mother. Still, he has a soft heart for babies. He dreamed of having a family of his own too. That's the main reason why he loves mpreg stories.
Qianfan stretched out his arms. "Give him to me." he said.
When Qianfan got to hold the infant, he felt some sort of connection. A warm feeling. It's as if the baby is his. His finger slightly pressed the cheek of the little one, cooing him. The baby stopped crying loudly but is sobbing in silence that you won't even notice it. His head snuggles toward Qianfan's chest, looking for something. Qianfan knows the meaning of it.
Qianfan feeling embarrassed doesn't know what to do. The previous owner of the body he's possessing might have given birth to the child but he didn't. He's not used to it.
Yu Yan knowing which way the wind is blowing interrupts. "I beg your pardon, master, do you want me or the wet nurse to handle the young master?" Yu Yan demurred while fidgeting, afraid that he might offend his master.
After hearing it, Qianfan felt bad. "N-no, it's okay. I'll take care of him."
Feeling shy, he revealed the left side of his chest for the baby to drink. As the baby latches to his pink little nub, Qianfan can't help but feel ditsy. It's so weird for him but somehow he felt satisfied—that it's only a normal thing to do.
While looking at the baby, his body is covered in a pink reddish undertone indicating that it's still a newborn. Qianfan wondered how many days or weeks the baby's old.
Still touching the cheeks, the little one made a cute sound that made Qianfan giggle. He's so cute. He noticed that the baby has a chubby cheek, urging him to pinch it, and he did. He gently squeezed the baby's cheek. He can't get enough.
Aside from having chubby cheeks, he also has long lashes and a high pointed nose, and his lips are a little bit pouty and almost the shape of a heart. Such a handsome little bean.
His son—yes, Qianfan is claiming the baby as is his now. Who wouldn't want a cute handsome baby?—will be snatching and breaking the girls' hearts when he grows up. Qianfan chuckled.
"U-uhm, m-aster..." Yu Yan chimed in. Qianfan looked back. "Yes?"
"His majesty still didn't come to visit and to give a name to the young master." he said with his head down. He felt sorry for his master because he has been through a lot.
Hearing it, Qianfan was left dumbfounded.
'MY SON DOESN'T HAVE A NAME?! AND WHAT DOES HE MEAN BY HIS MAJESTY? ISN'T THAT HONORIFIC USED ONLY FOR THOSE WHO HAVE ROYAL BLOOD?!'
Qianfan calmed himself. "Tell me what you know about me." he replied. "Y-you know just a recap, hehe." Qianfan scratches the side of his neck. Shit. I am making myself look like a fool, huhu.
The servant tilted his head in confusion. "Master, what's r-recap?" he asked with an innocent face. Qianfan finds it cute.
"O-ohh don't mind it, just tell me what you know about me." he smiled awkwardly.
Though confused Yu Yan answered without hesitation. "The master doesn't have parents. You grew up and used to work in a restaurant as a slave but were then sold to the palace to be a concubine and months later, you found me outside the brothel while you were strolling around the capital while following His majesty. You helped and bought me away from them and made me your servant." he explained.
Yu Yan is very thankful when his master helped him. He's also a slave just like his master and he might be selling off his body now if his master hadn't found him in the brothel. He even gave him a name for an undeserving servant like him. He's very grateful.
Qianfan—who still can't get over the fact that his son doesn't have a name, listened carefully to Yu Yan's storytelling. Seems like the owner of the original body has a soft heart and is humane.
'So, I'm not only a ger but also a concubine from the palace?!'
Qianfan already feels the problems coming and arising because he's a concubine. From the novels he read and the movies and series he watched, concubines and consorts tend to fight and compete with each other in order to gain a higher position and seek the attention of the emperor. The royal harem has a lot of dramas and to think that Qianfan is a part of that royal harem can't help but feel blue. He wants to avoid dramas! He hates it. He had enough from his previous life, so spare him from this life he has right now.
"So what's my name?" Qianfan furrowed.
'Did the master forget his name because of the stress?'
Yu Yan washed away his thoughts and replied. "The master's name is Wan Shen."
Qianfan's arm was left hanging in the air when he was about to touch his son's head and felt the time stops as he heard a very familiar name to him.
"MY NAME IS WHAT?!" Qianfan shouted frantically like a chicken and its head cut off.
