C125 — Kill That Big Star（23）

The knock on the door made both people in the room pause.

 

Ji Yao stopped on his way to the kitchen and turned around to look at the door. After a while, he slowly walked to the door. He didn’t ask who was outside but directly opened the door.

 

When the person outside the door saw Ji Yao, his eyes were cold, and he directly walked in with big strides. When he saw Shen Jue tied to a chair, his pupils shrank, and then he punched Ji Yao in the face.

It had been almost four months since Shen Jue had seen Shao Ge, and the first thing the other man did when he appeared in front of him was fight with Ji Yao.

 

Both of them seemed to be holding fire; you punched and I kicked; it was almost to the death.

 

Shen Jue took a look and realised that Ji Yao’s attacks were all aimed at Shao Ge’s face, while Shao Ge was focusing on Ji Yao’s weaknesses.

 

So after this fight, Shao Ge’s face became bruised and swollen, while Ji Yao, although his face was still clean except for the bruises on the corners of his lips, was a little unable to stand up.

 

Shao Ge knocked Ji Yao down before walking towards Shen Jue. His face was now swollen, but it still had a bit of the look of the world’s top 3 most handsome faces.

 

He lowered his head to untie the rope on Shen Jue’s body, then picked up the person and walked out.

 

Ji Yao collapsed on the ground, covering his chest. His eyes became extremely fierce. “You dare to take him away!”

 

He looked into Shao Ge’s eyes like a wild wolf looking at its own hunter, fierce and filled with hate.

 

Shao Ge held Shen Jue’s shoulders tightly and looked at Ji Yao coldly. “Why can’t I take him away? If this isn’t the end of the world, I could sue you for physical assault. You should be glad you don’t have to go to jail.”

 

“He is mine!” Ji Yao’s eyes became even more ferocious; the usual pair of charming fox eyes held a bone-chilling, ferocious bestiality.

 

Hearing this, Shao Ge only laughed coldly, no longer paying attention to Ji Yao, and directly took him out of the room. Ji Yao just moved a little bit; he felt his chest hurt so much that he could only stop, and his eyes kept following the backs of the two people leaving.

 

To be exact, he had been staring at Shen Jus, and when he realised that Jade Shen hadn’t even turned his head back and had been looking at Shao Ge since Shao Ge had appeared, his expression gradually changed.

 

The ferocity in his eyes gradually faded, turning to helplessness and loss.

 

It was as if he had turned from a wild wolf into an abandoned cub, covered in scars, and could only lie on the ground.

No one cared about him.

 

……

Shao Ge didn’t say anything on the way until he brought Shen Jue to his place, and then he spoke to him for the first time.

 

“I just came back and heard the people next door say that someone had come looking for me, a pregnant man, and I thought of you.”

 

Shen Jue gave a low hmph.

 

He’d wanted to cut his hair short before Shao Ge arrived, but not only had the other man seen him with long hair in women’s clothing, he’d also been seen tied to a chair in an embarrassing manner.

 

Shen Jue was a man after all, and even in the realm, he still felt a sense of shame. A big man having to rely on others to save him—what a shame.

 

Shao Ge seemed to notice that Shen Jue’s mood was off; he was silent for a moment and let Shen Jue sit in silence for a while. ”I’m going to take a shower and rub some medicine on my bruises. If anyone comes knocking on the door, you don’t have to pay attention.”

 

After Shao Ge left, Shen Jue turned around in Shao Ge’s room. To put it mildly, this was the first time in several lifetimes that he had come to Shao Ge’s residence at the M City base.

 

 

All he knew from his previous lives was that Shao Ge was practically the man of the hour here and was doing well, so he became more and more reluctant to get close to the other man because he felt too ashamed of himself.

 

He could only squeeze in a small single room to survive on relief, humble as an ant, while Shao Ge, who was once in the same group with him, was still so dazzling.

 

Shao Ge’s room was huge, bigger than Ji Yao’s room just now, and the furniture all looked new; even the living room and bedroom had air conditioning. He also went to the kitchen to have a look, and the fridge was full of food, and there was even a bunch of chocolates.

 

Shao Ge was in love with sweets.

……

Shao Ge quickly finished his shower and came out.

He couldn’t help but inhale as he applied the medicine in the mirror, and Shen Jue watched for a while before finally saying, “I’ll do it.”

Shao Ge paused for a moment, hmmm’d, and handed the cream and swab in his hand to Shen Jue.

Because of the medicine, the two of them had to sit face-to-face. Shao Ge stared at Shen Jue for a moment before saying, “Have you had a good time?”

 

Shen Jue took a cotton swab and gently applied the medicine to the wound at the corner of Shao Ge’s lips, thinking for a moment before answering, “It’s okay; at least the child and I are alive.”

 

Speaking of the child, Shao Ge’s gaze couldn’t help but go down. Shen Jue’s stomach was now so big that no matter what clothes he wore, he couldn’t hide his towering abdomen.

 

“The child… will be born soon.” Shao Ge estimated the date.

 

“Hmm.” Shen Jue nodded.

When the medicine was finished, Shao Ge hesitated for a long time before asking, “Can I touch the baby?”

 

“Yes,” Shen Jue said.

 

Shao Ge heard this answer before he put his hand out. He was careful, first gently touching it with his fingertips before slowly resting that hand.

 

As soon as he pasted it on, he was taken aback, and his eyes became startled.

 

“What… something moved?”

 

As soon as the words left his mouth, he felt another heave under his hand.

 

“He’s kicking you.” Shen Jue had long since grown accustomed to it.

Ever since the seventh month, the foetal movements had become more and more pronounced, and by the time he reached the eighth month, it was as if the one in his stomach had become full of energy, always moving to kick.

 

But the times he kicked were regular; he rarely moved at this time.

 

When Shao Ge heard Shen Jue’s words, he froze for a moment before saying, in surprise, “You mean the child is kicking me?”

 

“Hmm.” Shen Jue nodded.

 

In that instant, Shao Ge’s expression was a little complicated, a little surprised, and a little shocked. This was his first time being a father, and although it wasn’t his intention at first, he had accepted it later.

 

It was just that before he could feel that in Shen Jue’s stomach was a human life, Shen Jue was taken away by Ji Yao, and when he saw him again, his child was kicking him with no small amount of force.

 

“Does it hurt?” Shao Ge said quickly, “Does he always kick you like that?”

 

“A little.” Shao Ge picked up just as Shen Jue’s words left his mouth.

 

“If it’s a boy, he’s going to get a good beating when he’s born.”

 

Shen Jue: “……”

 

They chatted for a while before Shao Ge got up and went to cook. It was almost dark now. When Shao Ge went to cook, Shen Jue went to the bathroom alone. He asked Shao Ge for scissors, and little by little he cut his long hair short. He would have liked to take a shower, but Shao Ge’s meal was already ready, so he could only come out to eat first.

 

Shen Jue wasn’t a professional barber, and he only had a pair of scissors in his hand, so his hair was cut roughly, but he was comfortable in his own heart. Shao Ge looked at Shen Jue’s hair a few more times and couldn’t help but reach out and touch it. “When you take a shower later, I’ll help you fix it.”

 

“Hmm.”.

……

 

Shen Jue took this bath with the help of Shao Ge. There was a bathtub in his bathroom, and Shen Jue could sit in it. To Shen Jue’s surprise, Shao Ge even prepared his clothes here.

 

Shen Jue’s skin was even more morbidly white under his clothes, and his veins were clear to the point of being frightening. Shao Ge was still talking but fell silent as he showered him. When Shen Jue was wearing his clothes, he thought he looked fine, but now that he was undressed, he realised how wrong he looked.

 

Shen Jue’s current body was a bit strange; his abdomen was huge, his calves were swollen, and even his feet were swollen, yet his arms were very slender.

 

On top of that, Shao Ge also saw a purplish-red line under Shen Jue’s belly; his abdomen was like a large watermelon filled with watermelon lines.

 

Shao Ge closed his eyes and moved more and more gently. Until this moment, he didn’t clearly realise how hard it was for the other party to carry this child. A man’s pregnancy was meant to be an embarrassing thing, and Shen Jue accepted it, even enduring the pain of his body’s deformation.

 

He suddenly felt that his former self had gone a little too far. At the time, he’d only felt that Shen Jue stayed unashamed in order to survive, which was why he’d rejected him, and a big part of the reason he’d agreed to it later was because he couldn’t bear to see his former teammate turn out like this.

 

“Sorry.” Shao Ge touched Shen Jue’s wet hair and said, “I didn’t take care of you.”

 

Compared to Shao Ge, Shen Jue’s expression was too calm; he’d been through what he was going through now so many times that he wasn’t at all touched by Shao Ge’s apology, but after a while, Shen Jue realised that his emotions weren’t right.

 

It was too calm and seemed too cold.

 

So he thought for a moment and reached out to hug Shao Ge, while he wondered when he could kill Shao Ge.

 

He finally saw Shao Ge again, but that man Ji Yao was still a hidden danger, and although he was surprised that he was able to leave so smoothly today, he didn’t think that Ji Yao would let it go.

“Shao Ge.” Shen Jue called out Shao Ge’s name: “I don’t want to see that Ji Yao person in my life.”

As he said it, his long eyelashes trembled slightly, then he quickly lowered his head.

 

Shao Ge was silent for a long time before he took him into his arms across the bathtub, comforting him, “It’s okay, you won’t see him again.” In the latter sentence, his tone grew morose: “I promise you.”

 

Shen Jue was meekly held by Shao Ge, a hint of gravity flashing in his eyes.

 

It would be best if Shao Ge took care of Ji Yao first, and then he would take care of Shao Ge at that time; if Ji Yao didn’t die, it was always a kind of trouble.

 

He couldn’t kill Ji Yao, so he could only let Shao Ge come.

……

 

After taking a shower, Shen Jue sat on the bed and suddenly noticed that there was a cot in the corner of this room, still pink, with a few dolls on it.

 

He couldn’t help but look at Shao Ge and ask, “Is that?”

 

Shao Ge coughed. “I saw it before and thought it was quite cute; maybe I can use it in the future, so I brought it back.”

 

Cute was cute, but this was a boy in his stomach…

 

It was a boy in previous lifetimes, but it could be different in this one; after all, the point in time of the pregnancy had changed.

 

If it was still a boy, he hoped he wouldn’t have a problem with the pink crib.

 

“Do you have clothes for the little one too?” Shen Jue just casually asked.

 

“Yes!” Shao Ge immediately got up and opened the leftmost wardrobe, and then Jue Shen saw a bunch of pink baby clothes, all pink.

 

Shen Jue: “……”

Shao Ge didn’t seem to see the wrongness of Shen Jue’s mood and happily took out a pink onesie. “I think this one is really super cute; you think so too, right?”

 

For Shao Ge, who was a straight male character, a girl would definitely like pink. If they didn’t like it, it must be because he didn’t buy enough pink.

“You wish he was a girl?” Shen Jue hesitated before asking.

 

Shao Ge frowned. “No, I’m not the kind of person who values the gender of a child.”

 

But after a while, Shao Ge opened another drawer full of pink hair clips and hair bands that he had prepared.

 

Shen Jue: “……”
