Chi Mian accidentally slept with his childhood friend. In a daze, he missed a step, and when he opened his eyes, he'd traveled ten years into the future, to London.
The streets of this foreign country were packed with traffic. He didn't even have a phone and could barely speak English. He was on the verge of tears.
With help from a kind international student, Chi Mian finally managed to call his childhood friend.
A familiar voice came from the other end, low and husky, as if unable to believe it. "...Where are you?"
Chi Mian hung up and looked up. On rainy Gloucester Road, a familiar car was parked not far away. Even the license plate was the same as it had been ten years ago.
Only the handsome, cool boy in his memory had become "President Jin," dressed in a suit.
The man got out of the car, eyes bloodshot as he stared at Chi Mian with a dark, menacing look.
He seemed afraid to come closer. His voice caught in his throat before he rasped, "Mianmian."
Chi Mian recognized his good buddy at a glance and ran straight into his childhood friend's arms. "Bro!"

Though ten years had passed in the blink of an eye, Chi Mian adjusted to his new situation just fine.
He went home with Jin Congze and moved into his mansion in Kensington.
His childhood friend gave him anything he wanted, and Chi Mian was waited on hand and foot. He was having the time of his life.
But before long, Chi Mian started feeling sick and nauseous, and his figure began to change.
Remembering the chaotic night he'd spent with Jin Congze before everything happened, Chi Mian secretly went to a public hospital for a checkup and received an unexpected report.
"How can a man get pregnant?" he stammered, taking the pregnancy confirmation from the doctor with trembling hands, his worldview shattered.
The doctor patiently explained the process: "&¥*¥#@*¥#@..."
Chi Mian couldn't understand a single word of the gibberish, but he had seen the moving embryo on the ultrasound with his own eyes.
There was no doubt about it.
The usually calm Chi Mian finally broke down.
He was pregnant. With his childhood friend's baby.
A double bolt from the blue.

Chi Mian wouldn't dare tell his childhood friend he was pregnant, even if you gave him ten times the courage. The UK's public healthcare system was as useless as shit, so he decided to sneak back home for treatment.
Chi Mian found his childhood friend and lied. "I've been imposing on you for too long. I think I'd better move out!"
Jin Congze's voice was terrifyingly low. "...What did you say?"
Chi Mian didn't notice anything was wrong and smiled brightly. "I booked my flight. I'm going home the day after tomorrow..."
As he spoke, Chi Mian met Jin Congze's eyes as they suddenly darkened.
By the time Chi Mian woke up again, many days had passed.
The room was dimly lit, and a chill brushed his ankle. The man beside him had shed his gentle, refined facade. His eyes were bloodshot, his expression sinister and terrifying.
Long fingers traced Chi Mian's profile and lifted his chin.
In the man's other hand was Chi Mian's pregnancy test report.
His voice was icy and almost deranged. "Tell me, what is this?"
