Chapter 28

On the eve of the shoot, Gu Haochen took me to Xiangshan.

Everyone in the circle knew about my marriage alliance with him, but even so, an Alpha with a big belly being so close with his former archrival still shocked my agent, my assistant, and his childhood friend, the movie star Wei Lian.

“After a few years, you’re like this…”

Wei Lian stood in front of Gu Haochen, lowered his head to look at his belly, and unabashedly reached out to wrap his arm around his waist, as if measuring his waistline.

Gu Haochen didn’t stop him.

The Omega was half a head shorter than Gu Haochen, and this gesture looked as if he was snuggling into his arms. The faint papaya-scented pheromone drifted out, subtly mixing with Gu Haochen’s cold spring aroma.

“Gained weight?”

Gu Haochen was amused by Wei Lian’s conclusion, raised his chin good-naturedly: “Four months and you still can’t tell?”

“Oh my, you can get pregnant?” Wei Lian patted Gu Haochen’s chest and arm muscles, as if to check if they were still there. After patting, he tiptoed and slung his arm around Gu Haochen’s shoulders. “If I’d known you had this function, you could’ve had a few kids for me too.”

Gu Haochen glanced at him sideways: “You’ve already differentiated into an Omega, give up on that idea.”

Wei Lian punched Gu Haochen twice, then finally turned his gaze to me: “Sorry, I grew up with Haochen since we were kids, we were close even before we differentiated. You don’t mind me having this kind of physical contact with him, do you?”

My eyebrows twitched, but I still smiled at him: “Of course not, Haochen’s friends are my friends.”

“He won’t mind.” Gu Haochen patted Wei Lian’s waist. “But you, keep an eye on him for me on set. He’s too popular, if you see anyone flirting, help me block them.”

Wei Lian was stunned, reluctantly lowered his hand: “You want me to…”

“Exactly, Lianlian, aren’t you two the official couple in the show?” Gu Haochen grabbed his hand and earnestly instructed, “Resting, eating, reading the script, you stick with him. I want you to be the only Omega by his side during this period.”

Wei Lian refused: “He’ll get annoyed.”

“I’d be more than happy.” I gave him a boost, “Teacher Wei’s acting skills are well recognized in the industry, and he even won an award recently. I’d love to learn from Teacher Wei.”

Wei Lian’s expression softened a bit, and he finally nodded.

Gu Haochen patted his shoulder: “You can be the child’s godfather.”

“Ha, take good care of my grandchild.”
