After Transmigrating as a Scumbag Alpha, I Marked the Crazy Hotshot – Chapter 109

The Matter of Being Pregnant 2

Jealous of the Baby

According to the settings of an ABO world, an Alpha must permanently mark an Omega’s gland for pregnancy to be possible.

The higher the grade and the more powerful the genes, the lower the chance of pregnancy.

In ABO medicine, this is called superior selection.

Cheng Jiqing was aware of this point, and since her understanding of the ABO world was still at a semi-novice stage, she hadn’t considered the possibility of pregnancy—

Cheng Jiqing herself was a high-grade Alpha, and Bai Xin was a top-tier 3S-rank Omega. What was especially unique was that she possessed dual glands.

The probability of pregnancy was even lower.

She truly hadn’t thought about it, nor had she held too many expectations… Both of them had a let-nature-take-its-course attitude.

After the two reconciled, temporary marking and permanent marking were, to them, merely the difference between a shallow mark and a deep one.

It all depended on their mood for the day.

The office fell into a brief silence.

The expressions on Cheng Jiqing and Bai Xin’s faces seemed to have been frozen by a pause button.

But Cheng Jiqing reacted extremely quickly. The initial worry and anxiety suddenly transformed into immense joy and excitement.

“Really? Does this mean my wife is pregnant?” The excitement that struck so suddenly made her speak without thinking.

Tang Jia placed the examination report on the desk, resisting the urge to roll her eyes. “Yes. It’s your wife who’s pregnant.”

These two had hundreds of schemes between them, but right now, it was as if their brainstems had been yanked out.

Neither of them had actually considered something like pregnancy?

This was really too much.

Thinking back to how Cheng Jiqing had mocked her last night, she even suspected the two were doing this in front of her on purpose to mess with her—Look, Dr. Tang, we’re having a baby, how are you still single? You’re not good enough.

Cheng Jiqing didn’t even notice Tang Jia’s speechless expression. She had already turned her head, her palm subconsciously coming to rest on Bai Xin’s stomach, the joy in her eyes nearly overflowing.

“We’re having a baby?”

Bai Xin took it all in. At first, she was very dazed, then gradually, a relaxed, faint, and unfamiliar joy began to surface… But upon seeing such happiness on Cheng Jiqing’s face, she inexplicably felt a bit displeased.

“Are you that happy?”

Cheng Jiqing was slightly taken aback, but the smile on her face didn’t fade. “We’re having a child, Xinxin.”

Bai Xin pursed her lips. Cheng Jiqing rarely used this form of address, and normally she didn’t think much of it…

She lowered her head to look at the hand caressing her stomach and asked, “You like children a lot?”

“Of course I do.”

It was their child, how could she not like it?

Bai Xin ground her teeth against the tip of her tongue.

It could only be said that Cheng Jiqing understood Bai Xin’s atmosphere all too well. She looked up to read her expression, and before she could speak, she heard Bai Xin’s voice, cool and light, “How much do you like them?”

Cheng Jiqing sensed something. Amused, she bent her index finger and brushed it against Bai Xin’s fair cheek, saying warmly, “I like them a lot, but not quite as much as I like you.”

Only then did Bai Xin’s expression soften slightly.

She had thought that perhaps one day she and Cheng Jiqing would have a child, but she never imagined it would be so sudden.

Completely unprepared.

She was happy, too, but along with the happiness, she thought about how her and Cheng Jiqing’s world for two would soon be disturbed by an unfamiliar little one.

There was also a… faint, strange emotion.

Cheng Jiqing seemed to really like children. When the time came, would Cheng Jiqing only care about the child?

Cheng Jiqing didn’t know Bai Xin had so many thoughts running through her mind, but she sensed Bai Xin’s inexplicable unease. She pulled her chair closer and put her arms around Bai Xin to comfort her.

Tang Jia glanced at the two of them and, unable to bear it any longer, took a sharp breath. “Her hemoglobin is a bit low, and the Omega’s pheromone levels are somewhat elevated. Her physical condition and emotions may be affected recently. You two should go to the OB-GYN department for a detailed check-up. I’ve made an appointment for you with the director there.”

She finished speaking quickly, pointed toward the door, and closed her eyes to shoo them away. “The door is over there. I won’t see you out.”

---

Cheng Jiqing and Bai Xin went to the OB-GYN department for their check-up. The results were mostly normal, and the doctor prescribed some medicine to regulate her blood and qi levels.

As the doctor explained the precautions and medication instructions, Bai Xin watched Cheng Jiqing’s expression, only seeing the other woman’s earnest side profile.

When there was something she wasn’t clear about, Cheng Jiqing would speak up and ask, being as meticulous as she possibly could be.

Especially regarding Bai Xin’s physical condition.

At that moment, Bai Xin’s heart felt incredibly warm again.

This was the first time she had encountered such a situation, and she hadn’t fully come to her senses yet, but Cheng Jiqing seemed to be accepting it much faster than she was.

Becoming a mommy?

Bai Xin’s palm rested on her flat stomach…

“Miss Bai, I’m truly envious of you. There are many Alphas who are good to their wives, but ones as attentive as Miss Cheng are truly rare. You must be especially happy. This is so wonderful,” the doctor said with a sigh, watching as Cheng Jiqing even opened her phone’s memo app.

Bai Xin returned to her senses. She was indeed especially happy.

But that was her being happy alone. What if one more person was added to the equation?

Cheng Jiqing didn’t know what Bai Xin was thinking. Seeing that her enthusiasm wasn’t very high, she changed her grip from holding her hand to interlacing their fingers and smiled. “You should be envious of me instead, for finding such a wonderful wife.”

Hearing this, the doctor gave a kind smile, her most frequent phrase being—”This is so wonderful.”

Just as they were about to finish, the doctor added:

“Oh, right, there’s one more thing you need to pay special attention to… For the sake of the mother and the baby, sexual intercourse is forbidden for the next three months.”

Bai Xin’s eyelids twitched. Cheng Jiqing agreed quickly, then suddenly remembered they had done it just a few days ago, and if it weren’t for Bai Xin feeling unwell last night, they almost would have again…

Her scalp tightened, and a trace of lingering fear arose—thank goodness nothing had happened.

After leaving the hospital, Cheng Jiqing never once let go of Bai Xin’s hand. Amidst her excitement, she was also nervous and afraid.

In contrast, Bai Xin was very calm.

Back at home, Cheng Jiqing was busy again, even moving furniture that was easy to bump into out of the way.

“I’ll stay home with you for the next few days. We’ll go get your levels checked again next week. The doctor said we need to pay special attention to this anemia,” Cheng Jiqing said, sitting on the sofa and reading the medicine’s instructions. “Let me take a look first. We can take one dose of this right now.”

“What do you want to eat tonight? How about stewed beef? The doctor said nutritional therapy¹ is also very important. Beef replenishes the blood.”

“Can this blood-replenishing medicine be taken on an empty stomach… Wait, let me ask Tang Jia.”

Cheng Jiqing was not a talkative person, but for the past half-minute, her mouth hadn’t stopped muttering.

As she spoke, she was about to grab her phone.

“Cheng Jiqing.”

“Hm?” Cheng Jiqing answered.

Bai Xin: “I don’t want to have it anymore.”

Cheng Jiqing froze. Her movements stopped, and she looked up to meet Bai Xin’s dissatisfied gaze. Her mood grew slightly solemn. She was already close, and at that moment, she leaned over and pulled the other woman into a hug. “What’s wrong?” she asked.

Bai Xin averted her eyes, pushed Cheng Jiqing’s hand away, and said nothing.

Her tone wasn’t entirely serious; it conveyed a kind of petulance.

The doctor had said that Omegas are particularly sensitive during pregnancy, their emotions prone to change and large fluctuations.

Cheng Jiqing recalled the entire process from entering the hospital until now. Her hand gently squeezed Bai Xin’s slender, soft waist, and her voice grew even gentler. She lowered her head and pressed a kiss to Bai Xin’s forehead, saying, “I’m happy because the one in your belly is our child… In this world, no one is more important than you.”

Hearing this, Bai Xin’s eyelashes trembled lightly.

Cheng Jiqing’s other hand cupped Bai Xin’s face, turning her to face her, then pressed her cheek against Bai Xin’s soft one. “Wife?”

Her tone was coaxing.

“Tell me, do you really not want it, or…” Cheng Jiqing’s lips brushed against the corner of her mouth again.

In the end, Bai Xin couldn’t bear to push her away. Her earlier emotions were soothed by Cheng Jiqing’s soft lips. She lowered her head, resting it on Cheng Jiqing’s shoulder.

Her voice was cool and muffled, carrying a hint of coquettish complaint. “It’s not that I don’t want it.”

Cheng Jiqing gently patted Bai Xin’s shoulder, patiently waiting for the rest of her words.

After half a minute.

Bai Xin suddenly pinched Cheng Jiqing’s leg. “Cheng Jiqing, if you dare go back on your word, I won’t want her anymore.”

It took Cheng Jiqing a moment to realize who ‘her’ referred to. She let out a low laugh, the pain in her leg making her hiss lightly as she went to catch Bai Xin’s hand.

Her voice was laced with laughter as she said dotingly, “Miss Bai, why are you so jealous of the baby?”

If she truly didn’t want it, Bai Xin wouldn’t have had such a soft look in her eyes when she touched her stomach. She knew what Bai Xin was worried about.

Cheng Jiqing held her tight.

“In our family, you are definitely the most formidable one. Even if we have a baby in the future, you will still be the most important wife, the most important mommy.”

Bai Xin was silent for a while.

Only then did she let it go. Her hand was held by Cheng Jiqing, but her fingers could still be mischievous, rubbing restlessly against the seam of her pants.

She had barely managed to endure it last night. Cheng Jiqing’s gaze darkened, and she restrained those mischievous fingers as well. “Wife, can we make a deal?”

“Hm?”

“For these next three months, have mercy. Let’s give each other a way to live.”

The corners of Bai Xin’s mouth curved up. Remembering something, she pressed them down again, as if dissatisfied. “This child is too fragile…”

She was actually complaining about a child that hadn’t even formed yet, but that ‘disdainful’ tone was soft and tender.

Cheng Jiqing was overwhelmed by her cuteness.

She cleared her throat, adjusting her tone to be slightly more serious, “Our child is already very strong.”

The baby was already over a month old. Considering the frequency they’d had sex after she got pregnant—it was already an incredibly resilient child.

Regret and guilt welled up in Cheng Jiqing’s heart.

Cheng Jiqing poured Bai Xin a glass of hot water. She had asked Tang Jia, who said it was best to eat something before taking the medicine.

Bai Xin wanted to eat pork rib congee, so she took the ribs out of the freezer to thaw.

While waiting, Cheng Jiqing stood at the kitchen island, her gaze slightly lowered.

The sound of footsteps came from behind her.

Bai Xin wrapped her arms around Cheng Jiqing’s waist, hugging her from behind.

Cheng Jiqing turned her head. “Go rest. I’ll come be with you after I put this in the pot.”
Bai Xin pressed against Cheng Jiqing. “What are you thinking about?”

Cheng Jiqing said, “I was thinking about when it happened.”

Bai Xin: “Have you figured it out?”

“I think so.”

“Oh?”

“Don’t play dumb. I don’t believe you haven’t thought of it.”

Having been placated by Cheng Jiqing, Bai Xin’s mood had already stabilized. Hearing this, the corners of her eyes curved, and she said slowly, “I just haven’t.”

Cheng Jiqing turned and pulled the other woman in front of her, taking a slight step forward. She braced her arms on the counter, trapping Bai Xin between the island and herself. “Then shall I help you remember?”

“Oh? Then tell me about it? In any case… it was all your doing.”

“…”

Bai Xin deliberately emphasized the last three words.

Cheng Jiqing licked her lips. When her girl was in a good mood, that pink mouth of hers just made one want to pinch it.

A gentle breeze blew in from the balcony to the kitchen island, carrying the scent of spring.

Cheng Jiqing’s thoughts, too, seemed to enter spring, returning to a winter day more than a month ago—

It wasn’t a holiday, so the number of people in Beiyu Town had dwindled, and it lacked the bustle of Christmas.

But her heart was livelier than it had been then.

All because the person who hadn’t come with her back then was now held in her hands.

It was like making up for some kind of regret.

As it turned out, on the second day they were there, they had a ‘fight.’

Cheng Jiqing considered this incident a famous battle in the history of Bai Xin’s ‘trickery and schemes.’

The reason for the battle was very simple—a netizen had asked online for the same style of wrist cord that Qin Yufu had worn in the first episode, and this post had shot straight to the trending topics.

Coincidentally, just two days before they left, while packing, Miss Bai had seen the one in her drawer.

It was a gift from an old grandmother in a village further south she had visited.

At first glance, it was nearly identical to the red cord for protection that she had helped Qin Yufu get.

Cheng Jiqing was innocent, yet a little guilt-ridden.

If one were to really get to the bottom of it, she herself was partly to blame. When Qin Yufu had asked her to bring back a wrist cord and had invited her to dinner several times, she should have had some sense.

Because of this, they started talking about past events again.

Bai Xin asked, “Back then, you broke up with me and ran off so far away that no one could contact you… Who knows what you were thinking when you bought that wrist cord?”

Cheng Jiqing explained that the local specialty of that place was similar items, and red cords for protection were all largely the same.

Bai Xin then said, “You met her on my birthday. You gave her the gift on my birthday.”

“Cheng Jiqing, were you finding a way out for yourself?”

Cheng Jiqing: “…”

The past pain had already subsided, so even when she thought about those things herself, she could no longer feel the full extent of the hurt.

But thinking back, her heart ached for the Bai Xin of that time.

So she had no intention of resisting at all, letting Bai Xin settle the score with her.

Especially when, as Bai Xin spoke, her peach-blossom eyes filled with mist, thicker than the condensation on the window.

Her eyes reddened, overcome with emotion.

And she, too, lost all her defenses.

“Alright, alright, it’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have met someone else on your birthday. I shouldn’t have gone back on my promise to you.”

If she had a chance to do it over, Cheng Jiqing thought, she would definitely have gone to see Bai Xin.

“I’ll keep my word from now on,” Cheng Jiqing coaxed.

“Really?”

“Really.”

“Then you still owe me two things.”

“I remember… Just say the word, and I’ll definitely agree.”

That night.

It was the day the snow fell heaviest in Beiyu Town.

The heating in the guesthouse was turned up high.

The window was transparent, its aged wooden frame dividing it into an upper and lower section.

Due to the special construction of the house, the snow had almost buried half of it, creating the illusion of being in a semi-basement.

Looking through the glass, the outside was another fairytale scene.

The red wine on the table was mostly gone. Cheng Jiqing, cheeks flushed, leaned back on the single sofa, her head tilted back slightly.
Bai Xin sat on the armrest of the sofa, her thumb and forefinger gently squeezing Cheng Jiqing’s lips, bringing a glass of red wine to her mouth.

The glass fogged over from her breath.

Bai Xin’s movements were a bit rushed, and the light purple liquid trickled down from the corner of Cheng Jiqing’s mouth… She coughed twice.

The entire scene was tinged with a sense of coercion.

Bai Xin pressed down, the wine glass falling onto the carpet and rolling twice. She covered Cheng Jiqing’s eyes with her palm.

And pressed her lips to the wine on the corner of Cheng Jiqing’s mouth, swallowing it all…

Cheng Jiqing let out a hum.

She’d had three glasses, and the alcohol was beginning to take hold. She wasn’t drunk to the point of incoherence, but the breath in her chest was growing increasingly urgent.

“You were planning this all along, weren’t you?” she asked, her breathing unsteady.

“Yes.”

Her vision was covered by a palm. Under the bright light filtering through the window, Cheng Jiqing’s eyes were in a state of translucent red and deep black.

Because of this, her other senses became even sharper.

Her lips were being kissed, her nose was filled with the scent of alcohol and lilies.

Her body was enveloped in ambiguity and desire.

She asked again—

Are you messing with me?

Yes.

You weren’t really angry just now, were you?

That’s right.

In Cheng Jiqing’s ear, Bai Xin murmured, “I wanted to see you drunk. I wanted to see you lose control… for my eyes only.”

Bai Xin shed her coat, leaving on the black, form-fitting long dress underneath.

Cheng Jiqing’s hand circled to the zipper on Bai Xin’s side waist. A faint sound fell in the room filled with spreading warmth.

Dry, warm fingers touched the skin of her waist.

Bai Xin sucked in a light breath. She heard Cheng Jiqing say, “Then I’ll let you see.”

---

Bai Xin sat on the table in front of the window.

Her body leaned back, her spine pressed against the transparent glass, a backlit posture. Her back was cool, but her front was hot.

Cheng Jiqing was in front of her, her teeth scalding hot.

“Cheng Jiqing, do you like being with me like this?” Bai Xin asked.

Cheng Jiqing pressed her body between her knees, then suddenly tightened her grip on Bai Xin’s waist and deepened the mark on her neck—the drunkenness was setting in, she was biting hard, and she responded in a low voice, “Mmm…”

Outside the window, not far away on the snowy ground, a pedestrian walked by.

A sparse flurry of snow. It was white outside, and white inside as well.

“Bite me, mark me.”

Bai Xin turned her head, exposing her long, tender swan-like neck.

Cheng Jiqing leaned in, her lips covering the gland on her neck, but she didn’t bite.

She moved down.

She knelt, her eyes dark and profound. “Today, let’s mark a different place.”
