Dawn and Dusk

The original title was considered inappropriate, so I changed it. [Reading Guide and Warnings] This is long, so I'm putting it at the very beginning. 1. ABO alternate universe, pregnancy and childbirth, with original headcanons. I make things up as I go, so don't compare it to real life. 2. The story opens with the shou coming to his senses and asking for a divorce. He will not suffer, either during the story or afterward. 3. The gong suffers, but there will be no gong change. 4. The gong really was a scumbag in the past, but there is no white moonlight and no physical or emotional cheating. 5. After coming to his senses, the shou is absolutely determined to have nothing to do with the gong, including their child. He literally abandons his husband and child. If you can't accept that, please click the X. Let's not hurt each other. [Personal Notes] 6. I really enjoyed writing this, but I haven't dared look at the comments about the gong's redemption arc. I feel like the shou's influence on the story made my mindset collapse a bit in the later chapters, and then the whole thing ran wild and never came back. 7. Please don't take things to the level of attacking the author in real life, no matter what. This is just a silly story; it doesn't warrant that. I occasionally catch sight of comments like that without meaning to, and it really gets to me... Though I can be upset all I want, readers aren't responsible for my state of mind. Still, please be mindful of what you say. (This is only about a handful of readers I can't understand. Most of you are very nice. I'm not trying to paint everyone with the same brush or interfere with anyone's freedom to comment. I know some plot points are worth criticizing or even cursing over, so feel free to use reasonable language.) [Story Blurb] Shi Chaomu pursued Pei Tingjin for seven years, willingly entering into a loveless marriage with him. Shi Chaomu once received the most votes in the "Most Popular Omega at All Higher Education Institutions" poll. After getting married, he faded from the public eye to suit Pei Tingjin's preferences. He also had a child for Pei Tingjin, despite being terrified of pain, because that was what Pei Tingjin wanted. When Shi Chaomu was deeply in love with Pei Tingjin, he thought he could keep performing a one-man show for the rest of his life. Then, on the day he gave birth, he saw Pei Tingjin in a live news report, protecting a beautiful omega with a tenderness in his eyes he'd never seen before... Shi Chaomu finally understood everything. * Shi Chaomu loved Pei Tingjin with all his heart. Everyone said he couldn't live without him. Pei Tingjin once thought that no matter how cold and dismissive he was, Shi Chaomu would never stop loving him. Until the child was born, when Pei Tingjin arrived at the hospital late and saw Shi Chaomu calmly produce a divorce agreement: Divorce, split the marital assets equally, and the child goes to you. * After news broke that the richest man, Pei Tingjin, was getting divorced, everyone assumed Shi Chaomu was the one who'd been abandoned. But just a few days later, Shi Chaomu was photographed flirting with young men at a tourist destination, looking full of life. He didn't look like someone who'd just gotten divorced. He looked even more dazzling than he had before getting married. - Theme: Staying positive and optimistic after going through setbacks
