Chapter 142: Little Rabbit x Archon

Wen Chu’s voice wasn’t loud, but the crowd was simply too close to them, so they could hear about eighty to ninety percent of it, albeit intermittently.

What little rabbits? What children??

The crowd looked at Xiu, then at Wen Chu, utterly confused as to who exactly was pregnant.

Xiu: “…”

Xiu looked at the various expressions of the crowd, then turned to Wen Chu with a blank face and said, “How about we just kill them all?”

Wen Chu agreed seriously, “Okay, Father.”

As he spoke, he lifted the machine gun he had brought and was about to open fire.

“Wait wait wait!!” The leading old man panicked. “Let’s talk this out! We can discuss this properly!”

Xiu was also startled and hurriedly grabbed Wen Chu. “Don’t shoot yet, I was joking.”

Wen Chu lowered the gun with regret.

The old man wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and smiled awkwardly. “We didn’t hear anything just now… absolutely nothing. Regarding the laboratory matter, I also think it’s somewhat inappropriate. How about we discuss it later?”

Actually, even if Wen Chu hadn’t come, they were planning to give up temporarily.

It was true they were desperate for Wen Chu’s data, but what they needed was the weak and helpless little lop-eared rabbit from back then.

Not this violent rabbit who had Xiu backing him, was about to become the next Archon of the Lower District, and would strafe them with a machine gun at the slightest disagreement.

Leaving aside the massive public outcry it would cause, they couldn’t bear the consequences of Wen Chu personally taking action.

Wen Chu leaned against Xiu, supporting himself with the gun, and said nothing.

Worried that Wen Chu might collapse from exhaustion due to his heat cycle, Xiu loosely wrapped his arm around Wen Chu’s waist and swept a cold glance over everyone. “There is no later.”

“After Wen Chu takes over the Lower District, I will return to the Upper District—I’d actually like to see what exactly you all have been doing all these years.”

The blond Archon narrowed his eyes slightly as he spoke, his cold, transparent blue eyes slowly scanning everyone present.

It was intimidation and a warning.

Anyone who met his gaze subconsciously looked away guiltily.

Xiu sneered, picked up Wen Chu, who was still clutching the gun, with one arm, and walked towards the helicopter hovering outside the French window.

The helicopter lowered a rope ladder. Xiu placed Wen Chu on it first, then followed him up the ladder, leaving amidst the fearful or resentful gazes of the crowd.

“What do we do now?”

In the conference room full of shattered glass, someone asked tremblingly.

The old man looked at the unconscious laboratory staff on the floor and gritted his teeth. “What else can we do? Do you want to be blown into fireworks by him? Go prepare apology gifts now!”

He lifted his foot to leave, but before leaving, the old man paused again.

“Wait.” He stopped and looked at the departing helicopter.

Fear was one thing, but being severely humiliated by Xiu today was another.

He pulled someone aside and whispered a few words, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.

“We have to cause him some trouble. He dares to be so arrogant now; if we don’t retaliate a little, what will happen when he comes to the Upper District?”

“Write up the news release about Xiu and Wen Chu right now.”

On the helicopter.

The adjutant sold Wen Chu out the moment Xiu boarded the helicopter. “I didn’t want to come! Your kid held a gun to me and forced me to come.”

Xiu: “…”

Xiu looked at Wen Chu, who was still obediently sitting in his seat holding the gun, and sighed. “You can’t do this next time. If you want to find me, you can call me.”

Wen Chu said “Oh,” then added slowly, “Last time you came to the Upper District, I sent you a message, and you didn’t reply to me.”

Xiu thought for a while before recalling that the “last time” Wen Chu mentioned referred to an incident a year ago.

“Holding a grudge for so long?” Xiu said helplessly. “Wasn’t it just that one time? When have I not replied to your messages immediately otherwise?”

Wen Chu didn’t respond, continuing aggrievedly, “You even knocked me out just so you wouldn’t take me out with you.”

Xiu: “That was because I was afraid you’d say something reckless…”

“I didn’t say anything reckless.” Wen Chu lowered his head, his fluffy ears resting on the gun stock. “I just stated the facts. You are pregnant with the baby, and they were bullying you.”

The helicopter jerked violently.

Even though he had already learned from the doctor about Wen Chu’s symptoms of false pregnancy, hearing Wen Chu say something so world-shattering with his own ears still shocked the adjutant in the pilot’s seat.

“Adjutant.” Xiu glanced coldly.

The adjutant shuddered, put on his headphones, and pretended to be deaf.

Wen Chu was still muttering aggrievedly, “You didn’t even let me kill them. What’s so good about them? I even brought a gun…”

“Wen Chu.” Xiu raised his hand to pat his head and explained patiently, “It’s not that I won’t let you kill them, it’s that you can’t kill them now—did you eat after you woke up?”

Wen Chu shook his head subconsciously.

Xiu chuckled softly at him. “Then what do you want to eat when we get back?”

Still in his heat cycle, Wen Chu’s thoughts were led away by Xiu. He stopped dwelling on the previous issue and, after thinking seriously, said, “I want to eat potato stew with meat.”

Xiu nodded and messaged Secretary Li, asking him to go buy groceries first.

Immediately after, he saw the message Secretary Li had sent earlier.

[Secretary Li: Archon, what should we do about this matter? This wasn’t in our plan, right? Or do you have other intentions?]

Secretary Li sent a news report from the Upper District.

[Archon Pregnant for Love? Lower District Suspected of Making New Progress in Human Experiments!]

Xiu: “…”

The gentle smile on Xiu’s face facing Wen Chu froze.

He was wrong. He should have left no one alive just now.

He quickly searched for relevant information. Sure enough, in just five or six minutes, the news in the Upper District was already overwhelming.

They even captured part of the surveillance footage and played what Wen Chu said to him.

Fortunately, to hide the shameful fact that the conference room was broken into directly through the window, there weren’t many usable angles, and the clipped words were intermittent.

But for netizens, it was shocking enough.

[Real or fake?? How are the five words “Archon is pregnant” combined together??]

[Wait, whose is it? His adopted son’s??]

[Father is the wife…]

[Father, you smell so good…]

[Great, it’s a younger top, we are saved.]

[Is this a question of younger top or older top? Shouldn’t the focus be on when he got pregnant, when they got together, and if they are married?]

[That’s not the focus either, hey!!!]

Unexpectedly, the comment section wasn’t a bloodbath.

Mainly because this matter was too bizarre, so shocking that many people suspected the surveillance video was AI-generated.

Xiu took a deep breath, looked at Wen Chu beside him who was staring straight at him in his heat cycle state, and typed a reply.

[Xiu: Ignore it. Just guide the public opinion slightly so it doesn’t go astray. Then contact the gossip tabloids and promote this as a scandal. The more exaggerated and outrageous, the better.]

[Secretary Li: Okay, received.]

[Xiu: Also, buy some fresh beef while you’re at it.]

[Secretary Li: Okay, received.]

After sending the message, the helicopter began to descend slowly.

Xiu gently pried open Wen Chu’s hand and said warmly, “Let’s go home and take a shower first, then have dinner, okay?”

Wen Chu’s whole heart was tied to Xiu.

The cold pheromone scent on Xiu, Xiu’s voice, Xiu’s body temperature… He nodded subconsciously, always feeling like he had forgotten something.

Xiu took the gun from his hand, tossed it aside, leaned close to Wen Chu’s ear, and said, “We can continue tonight.”

Wen Chu’s face turned red instantly.

He shyly covered his face with his ears. After a while, realizing Xiu might think he was unwilling, he looked up with shining eyes. “Okay!”

Just like that, coaxed by a few words from Xiu, he completely forgot that he had been left behind earlier and didn’t even remember where he was.

Xiu looked at Wen Chu with amusement and carried him down after the helicopter steadied.

The little rabbit got covered in dust coming out with a gun; he needed to go back and get cleaned up.

After the two finished showering, Secretary Li happened to deliver the groceries. While Xiu went to prepare the meat stew, Wen Chu stuck to him like glue, not leaving his side for a step.

Touching his hand one moment, touching his waist the next, and then listening for movement from the little rabbits in his belly.

Finally, as expected, things got out of hand. Xiu was pressed onto the kitchen island by Wen Chu and tossed around, nearly letting the meat stew melt away.

He managed to make Wen Chu stop with great difficulty, but the other party insisted that what was in his belly were future little rabbits and made him store them in another “sperm storage gestational sac.”

Xiu attempted to explain to Wen Chu that he didn’t have a gestational sac, but to no avail. In the end, he was plugged up by Wen Chu with clothing and had to eat and sleep with the other party while holding Wen Chu’s stuff inside.

The next five days passed like this.

Until the fifth day, Wen Chu opened his eyes and was stunned when he saw the ceiling.

The hazy feeling in his brain suddenly receded, and the memories of the past seven days flooded back like a tide. Wen Chu recalled with incredible clarity the absurd things he had done.

Forcing Xiu to admit he was pregnant, carrying a gun to find Xiu, pestering Xiu to stay in bed for five days under the pretext of “storing sperm in the gestational sac”…

Wen Chu turned his head stiffly.

As soon as he turned his head, he saw Xiu sleeping deeply.

Xiu had very fierce features to begin with; even in sleep, his eyebrows and eyes were sharp, looking exceptionally unapproachable.

And this handsome Archon who looked very unapproachable was currently stark naked, his body covered in various kiss marks, and his lower abdomen unnaturally bulging.

It was all “stored” in there by Wen Chu crying and making a fuss over the past few days.

Wen Chu: “…”

#Is there any chance of redemption after sleeping with my adoptive father for a week right after becoming an adult and forcing him to be pregnant?#

#Is it illegal for an adoptive father to kill a rabbit?#

#How to stay in the original family#

Just as Wen Chu’s brain was spinning rapidly, thinking about countermeasures, the eyelashes of the blond man sleeping beside him trembled.

Then, he slowly opened his eyes.

It took a while for Xiu’s gaze to focus. Upon seeing Wen Chu’s normal ears, he hissed in a breath and slowly sat up.

“Sober now?”

Wen Chu nodded cowardly. “Sober.”

Xiu smiled faintly. “Anything you want to say?”

Wen Chu stammered, his mind blank. “I, I… even if you really get pregnant, I will take responsibility for the child.”

Xiu: “…”

Xiu knocked on his head. “Stupid.”

Wen Chu covered his head and whined, “I’m sorry, I am stupid. I didn’t expect the heat cycle to be like this either.”

“If you don’t like it, next time I’m in heat, just tie me up. It’s only a week; even if I don’t eat…”

“Wen Chu.”

Wen Chu’s words were cut off halfway by Xiu.

He looked up at Xiu cautiously, only to see his adoptive father looking at him with amusement, not angry at all.

“If I really didn’t want to do it with you, you should have been knocked out during this heat cycle,” Xiu said.

Wen Chu blinked, realizing what Xiu meant a beat later. “You mean…”

“Idiot. Waking up at a time like this, the first thing you should say to me isn’t an apology, right?”

Wen Chu put down the hand covering his head and said seriously, “I love you.”

“I’ve loved you since I was a little rabbit. Until now, and in the future, I will only love you.”

“Father, apart from you, I can’t fall in love with anyone else.”

Xiu had intended to tease the kid, but he didn’t expect Wen Chu to answer so earnestly. He couldn’t help but feel his cheeks heat up.

He turned his head away and happened to see the paper rabbit he had placed on the bedside table.

The memory of little Wen Chu holding the little rabbit and handing it to him was as vivid as yesterday.

The Archon and the experimental rabbit, existences that should never have met in a lifetime, yet fate magically drew them together in this way.

And entangled them for so many years, until they finally became inseparable.

Xiu gave a “Hmm” and hugged Wen Chu.

“I love you too.”
