After Clinging to a Big Shot, the Pitiful Omega Got Pregnant - Chapter 1

The smell of disinfectant filled his nostrils, and the sound of chatter buzzed in his ears. Ji Xia couldn’t hold on any longer, and with great effort, he propped open his heavy eyelids.

The first thing he saw was a worn, yellowing ceiling.

His unfocused eyes took a moment to gradually sharpen, and his chaotic mind completely woke up from a strange dream.

The odd thing was that even after he woke up, the content of the dream was still clearly etched in his mind.

In the dream, he differentiated into an Omega, and his dad sold him to an Alpha for 500,000 yuan…

Ji Xia’s delicate brows furrowed slightly as he recalled the subsequent events in the dream, and another layer of cold sweat seeped from his back. It was too terrifying…

Fortunately, this dream couldn’t possibly come true!

He had differentiated into a Beta when he was fourteen and couldn’t possibly become an Omega.

Ji Xia raised a hand to rub his chest, let out a sigh of relief, and chased away the uneasy feelings that the dream had brought.

He used his arm to support himself and tried to sit up. The moment he moved, a sensation of weakness and soreness spread through his limbs. Gritting his teeth, he leaned against the headboard and only then realized that he was in the county hospital.

Ji Xia was most afraid of hospitals; the pungent smell of disinfectant made him feel uneasy.

He suddenly remembered that in the dream, he was sold in a hospital… He vigorously shook his head, trying to get rid of the countless thoughts that rushed forth.

A dream is just a dream; how could it possibly come true?

Besides, even if Ji Chengguo was unreliable, he wouldn’t sell him, right? They were bl00d relatives.

Ji Xia tried hard to remember what happened last night, but after recalling it several times, the answer was always the same. Last night, he got home from work at three in the morning and went to bed.

He should have been at home, so how did he end up in the hospital?

Just as he was thinking, the corner of his eye caught a gaze. He turned his head and met the eyes of the middle-aged woman accompanying her partner on the bed next to him.

The middle-aged woman looked at him with a complicated expression, as if she wanted to say something but held back.

At this moment, the middle-aged man lying in the bed kicked her with his foot, and in a low voice, said, “Don’t be nosy.”

Ji Xia didn’t hear what the man said, but he felt an incredible sense of surprise. The uncle and aunt on the bed next to him looked exactly the same as the ones he saw in his dream…

His thoughts uncontrollably continued to the next part—next, Ji Chengguo and his mom would come in. His mom would cry all the time, and Ji Chengguo would tell him to go with that man.

Ji Xia kept telling himself that such a thing wouldn’t happen. Ji Chengguo only came looking for him when he needed money.

Now that he was in the hospital and needed care, Ji Chengguo would avoid him, so how could he possibly show up?

But the next second, he saw Ji Chengguo walk into the ward with a beaming face, followed by his mother, who was softly sobbing.

Ji Chengguo walked to Ji Xia’s bed, casually pulled up the folding chair from the adjacent bed and sat down. His small eyes sparkled as he said, “Xia, I really underestimated you. I never thought you’d be so lucky to differentiate into an Omega. From now on, you’ll live a good life, eating well and drinking well…”

Ji Xia’s cat-like eyes widened. Due to sheer terror, his ears were buzzing, and his frail body trembled slightly, like a withered leaf fluttering in the winter wind.

An Omega… he really did differentiate into an Omega…

Ji Xia suddenly remembered something.

He used his stiff body to turn his head inch by inch. When he saw the man in a well-tailored suit and gold-rimmed glasses, who looked gentle and refined, standing at the door of the ward, his pupils constricted. The bl00d instantly drained from his palm-sized face.

In the dream, this man took him to the Fu family’s villa, but Ji Xia was not favored by that Alpha and was kicked out.

Ji Xia, at a loss and feeling insecure about the future, saw the man waiting outside as a lifesaver and foolishly followed him back to the apartment.

Ji Xia’s lips were tightly pressed together, his face so pale it was almost transparent.

If the dream was real, then…

The moment he went back to the apartment with this man, he would be locked in a dark and cramped room, where he would be violated and beaten every day.

Ji Xia turned his head back, frantically grabbing his crying mother, and sobbed, “Mom, I can stay up late and work two, no, three more jobs to earn more money. I’ll definitely take good care of you from now on…”

“Slap!”

A heavy slap landed on Ji Xia’s face.

The woman covered her face in distress and began to cry loudly, her sobbing revealing her broken voice. “Xiaxia… they have money… if you go with… them… you’ll have a good life, better than staying with… Mom… Xiaxia… don’t blame me… Mom… Mom also… has no other choice.”

Ji Chengguo withdrew his hand, his face grim. He glared at the crying woman and cursed, “All you do is cry, it’s bad luck.”

After cursing, he turned back to Ji Xia. “How much money can you earn by working a few more jobs?! Your mom is pregnant again. Do you know how much it costs to have a baby? I raised you, you little brat, and now it’s time for you to repay me…”

The other patients and their families in the ward cast disapproving glances, but no one dared to step forward and stop this open display of human trafficking.

Ji Chengguo was a well-known rascal in the area. Getting involved with him would mean a lot of trouble. Besides, this was a family matter, and they really couldn’t interfere.

An old lady with graying hair, who was Ji Xia’s neighbor, was lying on the bed near the door. She couldn’t bear to watch this scene, so she quietly turned her back and wiped her tears, mumbling, “What a sin! Such a good child, such a good child! How could this happen…”

Ji Xia’s eyes were filled with tears, but he stubbornly held them back.

He slowly let go of his mother’s hand. He wouldn’t expect anything anymore. He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his emotions were much more stable.

The situation wasn’t so bad. He had the dream, and he knew who the bad people were. As long as he avoided them, those terrible things wouldn’t happen.

Now he had to escape from here.

With that thought, he immediately put it into action, saying in a hoarse voice, “I need to use the restroom.”

Ji Chengguo’s murky eyes narrowed slightly. Although he didn’t know his son well, his years of experience as a rascal made him wary of the “going to the bathroom” excuse.

He said, “I’ll go with you.”

Ji Xia clenched his fists, trying to stay calm. He said, “I differentiated into an Omega. It’s not very con…”

Ji Chengguo didn’t listen to a word he said. He stood up, grabbed his shoulder, and was about to pull him to the restroom, all the while warning, “Don’t play any tricks, you little brat. I’ve eaten more salt than you’ve eaten rice. Just be honest with me.”

Ji Xia hadn’t expected his intention to escape by going to the restroom to be so easily exposed. His pale lips formed a rigid, straight line.

“Mr. Ji, Xiaxia is a very precious Omega. Please don’t be so rough.”

The man with the gold-rimmed glasses had a gentle voice and exuded the refined aura unique to the elite class. He rescued Ji Xia from Ji Chengguo’s grasp.

Upon hearing this, Ji Chengguo grinned, revealing his stained yellow teeth, and said obsequiously, “Mr. Chen, sorry, my bad. I’m handing the person over to you. Our transaction is complete. From now on, whether this child lives or dies has nothing to do with me.”

Chen Chaofei looked at the retreating back of the fat middle-aged man, his eyes flashing with disgust, but he quickly reined it in. He turned his gaze back to Ji Xia.

Ji Xia instantly became like a little rabbit with its throat caught by a wolf, not daring to move.

Chen Chaofei let out a soft sigh, and with a gentle motion, he straightened Ji Xia’s messy hospital gown, soothing him, “Xiaxia, don’t be afraid. It’s okay now. You won’t see that scum of a father again. I will take good care of you.”

The man had a good face, a strong scholarly vibe, and a very pleasant voice.

If it weren’t for that dream, this country boy, who was inexperienced and had just gone through a major life change, would have definitely relied on him like a gentle older brother.

Ji Xia lowered his head and said in a trembling, low voice, “I… I want to use the restroom.”

“Okay.”

Ji Xia thought he had gotten a chance to escape, but before he could feel any joy, he heard Chen Chaofei continue, “I’ll go with you.”

Ji Xia flinched back, avoiding the man’s outstretched hand, and said, “No need. I can go by myself.”

Chen Chaofei’s hand paused in mid-air and then changed direction to gently ruffle his hair. His voice was still gentle. “You just had your second differentiation last night, and your body is still very weak. Let me take you, okay?”

Ji Xia shook his head vigorously.

Chen Chaofei, however, was incredibly patient. “Then I’ll find a nurse to go with you.”

Just as Ji Xia was about to refuse, Chen Chaofei had already called a passing nurse.

Left with no choice, Ji Xia could only be helped by the nurse to the restroom. After he came out, Chen Chaofei handled the discharge procedures for Ji Xia and took him away.

With a “thud,” the car door was closed, and Ji Xia’s little heart trembled. He huddled in the corner of the back seat, watching Chen Chaofei open the car door, get into the driver’s seat, and start the car.

The scenery outside the car window flew by. The weakness from the second differentiation made his eyelids heavy. Ji Xia pinched his thigh hard, forcing himself to stay awake.

He had to change the course of events to survive. Where there’s a will, there’s a way. There must be a way…
