After Becoming the Alpha Protagonist, I Snatched the Cannon Fodder Omega - Chapter 99.1

When Ling Mu’s belly was at nine months, Qiu Zhenyang began to fret needlessly.

As soon as Ling Mu frowns, he will immediately stand up nervously, and ask, “What’s the matter? Do you feel unwell? Do you want to call the doctor?”

Ling Mu wasn’t nervous at first, but Qiu Zhenyang made him nervous later.

Qiu Zhenyang was by Ling Mu’s side almost all the time after Ling Mu went to stay at the hospital. He learned a lot of things in advance, and continued to look after Ling Mu, to a greater degree than anyone expected.

“No need to support me.” Ling Mu felt deeply helpless as he was carefully supported by Qiu Zhenyang as they walked around the hospital garden. “I’m just pregnant, not disable. I can walk slowly.”

There are only two or three days before his due date. Each day Qiu Zhenyang would accompany Ling Mu out for a walk every day. The doctor said that this would help make the delivery less stressful.

Qiu Zhenyang hesitated for a while, but eventually let go. Of course, he added with a worried face, “Okay, then walk slowly. I’ll be by your side. If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, please tell me quickly, so I can carry you back.”

His appearance is really conspicuous, catching the eyes of a few old folks in hospital gowns to joke: “Ah, that kid really loves his wife. When my wife was about to give birth, I was on a business trip, so I could only make a phone call every day to ask if the child was born.”

“Isn’t that right? Most alphas are too career-minded. They don’t think their spouse or kid is as important as the contract in their hands. Not many are like that kid.”

All of a sudden, everyone began praising Qiu Zhenyang. Even Ling Mu was embarrassed to hear it.

Qiu Zhenyang’s cheeky smile made his white teeth shine, his eyes curved into slits, and he whispered into Ling Mu’s ear, asking for credit, “Look, look how good I am. Everyone praises me! Aren’t you happy to have such a husband?”

Amused, Ling Mu grabbed Qiu Zhenyang’s arm that was vainly warped around his waist, and squeezed it not so gently: “You are amazing.”1re: the italics are to highlight LM’s sarcastic tone

Qiu Zhenyang’s eyes changed at the pinch, and he moved hand away. “Are you seducing me? I haven’t had sex for a long time. Every move you make is a kind of temptation to me now.”

The sudden change of topic stunned Ling Mu, who snorted indifferently.”What are you thinking about?”

Qiu Zhenyang bared his teeth, and deliberately put on a vicious expression: “I’m thinking about how to do you hard after you recover after giving birth!”

Speaking of this, Qiu Zhenyang was really aggrieved. Pregnant omegas will need a lot of alpha pheromones, so he will always stick to Qiu Zhenyang to ask for pheromones. Out of concern for Ling Mu’s well-being, Qiu Zhenyang can only be careful and affectionate, for fear of hurting his partner. The intensity and number of times have decreased significantly, causing him to linger in a state of dissatisfaction.

In short, when Ling Mu’s health recovers, he will not let him go!

Seen by Qiu Zhenyang’s wolf-like eyes, Ling Mu felt so stressed that he could only continue to walk forward slowly with his big belly out.

Today’s weather is good. Although it’s already the beginning of August, it rained a couple days ago, so it wasn’t too stuffy out. The gentle sunlight and clear air is very pleasant.

Qiu Zhenyang walked with Ling Mu for a while, before bringing him back to the room. It’s a special period now, and he doesn’t dare to take Ling Mu out too often, so they walked around the room slowly.

Not long after going back to the  room, Ling Mu suddenly felt a stomachache.

Qiu Zhenyang, who was focused on Ling Mu all the time, immediately noticed the frown. “What’s wrong, your stomach hurts?”

Ling Mu opened his mouth, and as soon as he said “En”, Qiu Zhenyang hugged him. Carefully avoiding the big and round belly, he put him gently on the bed, and then pressed the call bell.

After a while, a nurse came over to check on the situation. When she learned that Ling Mu’s stomach started to hurt, she went to check on him.

“You’re in labor, I’ll go to arrange the delivery.” The nurse hurriedly contacted the doctor and midwife, and began to make arrangements.

Knowing that Ling Mu was about to give birth, Zhu Qin, who was still preparing lunch at home, rushed over in a hurry. Qiu Zhang and Qiu Haolin couldn’t leave, so they could only send messages to Qiu Zhenyang to keep them abreast of the situation.

When Zhu Qin came over, she brought some fresh soup to help Ling Mu replenish his strength. Qiu Zhenyang stayed beside Ling Mu, helping him up and walking around from time to time.

After waiting more than ten hours, Ling Mu’s amniotic fluid broke and he was directly pushed into the delivery room.

Zhu Qin was extremely nervous, even more nervous than when she gave birth. Occasionally, she glanced at her son pacing back and forth with a pale face and bloodshot eyes. She hurriedly said: “Your face is so pale, come and sit for a while.”

Qiu Zhenyang grabbed Zhu Qin’s hand, and asked in an unstable tone: “Mom, Ling Mu is screaming so hard…Can I go in?”

Qiu Zhenyang wanted to go in to accompany Ling Mu earlier, but was pushed out by the nurses. Ling Mu didn’t want him to witness the birth, insisting he go out, so Qiu Zhenyang could only wait outside the door.

“Why do you go in, to cause trouble? See how nervous you are now – maybe Ling Mu will come back to comfort you later.” Zhu Qin knew that her son wanted to help, but couldn’t, so he could only frown and stare at the delivery room door.

Ling Mu was indeed screaming quite loudly. He can usually tolerate pain, yet he actually cried out this. It’s no wonder that Qiu Zhenyang couldn’t help wanting to rush in.

Qiu Zhenyang’s eyes were red, and he couldn’t stop walking around outside the delivery room. The louder the cries of pain inside, the tighter his fists clenched. Finally he took a deep breath and leaned against the wall without moving.

On the other side, Zhu Qin felt amused and distressed. She walked over and patted her son’s shoulder, not saying anything, and waited with him.

No one knew how long it took, but the loud cry of a baby finally broke through the door. Qiu Zhenyang immediately let go of his pale hands from being clenched so tightly, and approached the door with a face full of surprise: “It’s born!”

Zhu Qin also patted her chest. The worry on her face turned into a smile, and the corners of her eyes and brows were full of joy.

Not long after, both the child and Ling Mu were pushed out. Before Qiu Zhenyang had time to glance at the child, he was frightened by the pale-faced Ling Mu who was pushed out. He immediately ran over to hold Ling Mu’s hand and raised his head to ask the doctor: “Doctor, how is he, is he okay?”

The doctor who delivered the baby took off his mask and said with a smile, “Father and baby are safe. Your husband is in good health and paid great attention during pregnancy, so he didn’t suffer too much.”

Hearing this, Qiu Zhenyang finally let go of his worries. Seeing Ling Mu’s tired eyes, he touched his sweaty forehead, and kissed him gently on the forehead. “Sleep well, thank you for your hard work.”

Ling Mu’s eyelids drooped twice, and fell asleep peacefully.

———-

When he woke up again, Ling Mu had already been placed in a confinement room.

The room was climate controlled, making it warm and comfortable for him.

Ling Mu yawned, and there was a numb soreness in his lower body. It wasn’t uncomfortable, but his body was very weak. Qiu Zhenyang carefully cleaned him up under the guidance of the nurses before.

“Are you awake? Are you hungry? Eat something first.” Qiu Zhenyang came in from the door. Seeing Ling Mu awake, his heart suddenly softened.

Inside the insulated box were foods suitable for parents who had just given birth. There are also soups and sweets, which are all Ling Mu’s favorites.

Seeing Qiu Zhenyang busy setting up a small table on the bed, Ling Mu looked around and couldn’t help asking, “Where’s the child?”

After setting out the food, Qiu Zhenyang filled a bowl of soup for Ling Mu and handed it over. “The child is in the family room next door. Mom is watching. She didn’t hug him over since she’s afraid of disturbing your rest.”

Ling Mu was relieved. Drinking the hot soup, he remembered the baby the doctor let him look at before with a tangled expression. “Are all newborn babies… like that?”

Qiu Zhenyang was stunned for a moment, and then couldn’t help laughing out loud. “Do you think our baby is ugly? Tsk tsk, how sad it would be if our baby heard you!”

His exaggerated expression made Ling Mu flush. He couldn’t help raising his hand to slap the other party. “What are you talking about, I don’t think… he’s not good-looking, I’m just asking!”

“Yes, yes, yes, I know.” Qiu Zhenyang was hit without pain. The smile on his face deepened as he picked up some food for Ling Mu.
