Let Go of Me, Baby

[Main story complete. There are several other finished works in my collection, waiting to be enjoyed. The blurb for "After Becoming a Substitute, He Became a Slacker" is at the very end!]

An accident sent Shi Xingmiao to the interstellar era, pregnant with a baby.

Before he could recover from the shock that men could get pregnant, the creature he gave birth to stunned him even more.

A human! Why had he given birth to a kitten?

Forced into fatherhood, Shi Xingmiao was terrified that people would discover his "strange ability." He had no choice but to hide and run around with the baby while starting his training as a novice dad.

The baby ate and slept well and grew fast. The only thing that drove Shi Xingmiao crazy was the little one's longing for the outside world. Whenever Shi Xingmiao wasn't looking, it would crawl right out!

The 101st time he frantically went looking for his missing baby, Shi Xingmiao finally resolved to stop being soft-hearted and letting the little one roam free.

After finally tracking the baby down, he found it dangling high in the air, pinched by the scruff, its paws curled up in a pitiful little ball.

Fury surged through Shi Xingmiao. He rushed over to take the baby back, but failed.

He looked up at the tall, burly man with the fierce face and couldn't stop himself from hiccuping.

Oh no. Was this the one-night stand who had gotten him pregnant?

Good grief! Was the baby's identity about to be exposed?

Was he going to be taken away and dissected?

The man's gaze fell on the crown of Shi Xingmiao's trembling head. He looked puzzled. "Have we met somewhere before? Where did this baby come from?"

Shi Xingmiao looked at the baby dangling and swaying in midair, his heart aching as he choked back tears.

"P-please let my baby go..." QAQ

*

In the year 8614 of the Star Era, no child had been born in the Blue Star Empire for nearly thirty years.

Experts declared that if they could not find a way to suppress the various races' mental-power outbursts and preserve their bloodlines, the races would have no descendants and would go extinct.

Just as the people of the empire were gripped by fear, Marshal Zhu Sheng, commander of the empire's Thirteenth Army, made a high-profile announcement: He had a baby!

The people of the empire saw hope for the future and erupted in celebration. They rushed to find out what kind of hero had managed to raise a child with the brutal and violent Zhu Sheng.

If Zhu Sheng could do it, then they could too!!!

Shi Xingmiao: "?!!!"

Warnings:

1. Pregnancy story.

2. The bottom is weak and whiny, and a naive sweetheart.

3. The baby isn't a kitten, just an ordinary baby, maybe a little smarter than average, but not a child prodigy...

---- Blurb for "After Becoming a Substitute, He Became a Slacker [Showbiz]" ----

An accident sent Qiao Han into a novel about a scumbag's road to redemption, where he became the substitute for the white moonlight in everyone's heart.

He arrived just as the white moonlight returned. The substitute had just learned the truth and lost his mind. He was in the middle of dousing the place with gasoline, holding a lighter, and threatening to take everyone down with him.

Qiao Han: "...This is a matter of life and death."

Having just arrived and not wanting to die, Qiao Han launched a frantic attempt to save himself.

He quickly tossed the lighter aside and looked innocently at everyone present. "If I said this was all a joke, would you believe me?"

The scumbag gong slapped down a check. "Here's a million. Take care of yourself and stop pestering me."

Qiao Han quickly took the check and tucked it away carefully. "Sure thing~"

To cover up the fact that they had once mistaken the substitute for their beloved white moonlight, and to get rid of him, the white moonlight's brothers quickly found Qiao Han a sugar daddy.

The brothers said, "Isn't this what you've always wanted? A sugar daddy, and a spot on the hottest reality show right now. Keep your mouth shut and don't show your face around us again!"

Qiao Han quickly accepted the reality show contract. "No problem!"

As for the sugar daddy... Qiao Han had meant to refuse, but the white moonlight's brothers were afraid he'd cause trouble again. Before he knew it, they had sent him straight to the sugar daddy's bed.

Qiao Han: ...Fine. The sugar daddy is pretty handsome, so it's not a bad deal.

Qiao Han had no grand ambitions. He just wanted to coast through life and wait for the end. He never expected that some of the people who had once avoided him like the plague would suddenly lose their minds, keep showing up in front of him, and try to mend their relationships.

Qiao Han: "???"

Qiao Han clung to his sugar daddy's powerful leg, making it clear through his actions that he was just a lazy fish who couldn't even be bothered to roll over. He only wanted to stay alive and had no interest in getting involved with anyone connected to the white moonlight.

His sugar daddy was handsome, doted on him, and had plenty of money and free time. He hadn't had enough of this heavenly life yet.

But during a routine checkup, the instant Qiao Han received his test results, he was struck by lightning.

WTF! Why had nobody told him this was a pregnancy story too?!

Qiao Han stared blankly as he touched his slightly rounded belly.

If he went and died right now, could time still be turned back?
