After Transmigrating Into the Book, I Raised the Sickly Side Male Character to Be the Yandere - Chapter 164
Chapter 164: Fighting for Favor
Ever since then, Jiang Niannian suspected she might have some kind of prenatal anxiety.
For instance, in the middle of the night, she suddenly sat up, looked at her still-flat stomach, and reached out to shake Yin Buqi awake.
Murmuring, she asked, “Are you sure I’m really pregnant? There’s no mistake? Why don’t I feel anything at all?”
Without opening his eyes, Yin Buqi hushed her in his hoarse voice, pulled her back into his embrace, and pressed her against his chest.
He patted her back soothingly and buried his face into her hair.
“How could something like this be mistaken? Niannian, you just got pregnant. It’s natural that you don’t feel anything yet.”
Jiang Niannian continued asking, “But my stomach hasn’t changed at all. What if the baby suffocates inside?”
The moment she finished speaking, Yin Buqi’s red eyes opened slightly.
His gaze swept over her abdomen, a faint smile tugging at his lips.
“Niannian, our cultivation is unlike anyone else’s in this world. He won’t die so easily.”
He pecked her lips lightly.
“I can feel his presence. He’s just a weak little thing, but thankfully, he isn’t harming your body. Don’t worry, I’m here.”
Jiang Niannian nodded in understanding but soon frowned in dissatisfaction.
“How could you call our child a ‘little thing’? What kind of father calls his own child that?”
Yin Buqi placed his palm on her belly, gazing at her with a rare softness in his expression.
“If possible, I’d rather it be just the two of us. But I know… Niannian, you’ve always wanted a child.”
He buried his face in the crook of her neck, rubbing against her gently as he let out a soft, indulgent sigh.
“But Niannian, your greatest love can only be me.”
“Of course,” Jiang Niannian replied, grabbing his sleeve before another worry crept into her mind.
“Your true form is a nine-tailed fox, and mine is a tree. Our baby won’t turn out to be…”
“A hybrid.”
Jiang Niannian shot him a glare.
“…”
If you don’t know how to talk, then just don’t.
Yin Buqi raised his hand to rub his temples, looking as if he found her amusing.
He reassured her, “Since he is our child, he’ll be born with the ability to take human form.”
Jiang Niannian blinked in a daze, then foolishly asked again, “And later? Will he turn into a vine? Or a little fox?”
“If he’s a vine, would he need to be planted in soil? Watered? Given fertilizer and sunlight?”
“Actually, I’d prefer a little fox. All fluffy and cute, just like you.”
“Why don’t men give birth? It seems so painful…”
Jiang Niannian kept rambling while Yin Buqi remained silent, only holding her tighter.
He buried his face in her soft hair, breathing in its sweet and delicate fragrance.
Feeling slightly out of breath, Jiang Niannian hastily patted his arm in panic.
“Buqi, don’t press on the baby.”
Yin Buqi’s body stiffened for a moment, but instead of letting go, he only held her tighter.
She was startled and quickly grabbed his hand, calling softly, “Buqi?”
Lifting his head, his red eyes carried a trace of grievance.
“Baby, baby—it’s been nothing but ‘baby’ tonight. You said I was your greatest love, but all you talk about is him. I’m not happy.”
Jiang Niannian sighed helplessly.
“But he’s your child too! Are you seriously jealous of your own baby?”
Yin Buqi growled under his breath, unable to hold back his frustration.
“I hate him! I hate that little thing! He’s going to take you away from me.”
Jiang Niannian froze for a second before bursting into laughter.
Testing him, she said, “If you hate him that much, then I won’t give birth. I’ll just get rid of him.”
Without hesitation, Yin Buqi shook his head, murmuring, “No, hurting the baby would harm your body. Once he’s born, we’ll leave the Heavenly Realm. Let him handle everything here. There are so many affairs in the world—he’ll be too busy to come looking for us. That way, I can stay with Niannian forever…”
He nuzzled her cheek affectionately, greedily inhaling her scent.
The warmth of her presence filled his heart, making it beat wildly, as if every drop of blood in his body rushed toward her, overwhelming him with a sense of fulfillment.
Jiang Niannian suddenly realized something, and anger surged up within her.
She clenched her fingers and mercilessly pinched his ear.
Furious, she snapped, “So that’s your plan all along!”
Yin Buqi locked his long legs around hers, holding her even closer.
He rubbed his chin against hers in a pleading manner, softly calling, “Niannian…”
Her clear, beautiful eyes were slightly damp, carrying an indescribable warmth that could wash away all darkness.
Yin Buqi was hopelessly captivated by her.
His voice was low and gentle as he whispered, “You promised me long ago that you would only ever think of me… I can’t stand anyone else sharing your love.”
Jiang Niannian was speechless.
He always used their promises to corner her.
Looking into his gleaming red eyes, she saw the sheer madness within them—an intense obsession that exuded an almost suffocating brilliance.
She forced out a vague response but still felt indignant.
“But the baby is the one closest to us…”
Yin Buqi’s expression darkened further.
He suddenly pressed a hard kiss against her lips—no, it wasn’t a kiss.
It was a bite.
Jiang Niannian remained still, fearing that any sudden movement might hurt the baby.
He spoke slowly, enunciating each word clearly, “I don’t care. Niannian is mine. All of you belongs to me.”
Only then did Jiang Niannian recall—he wasn’t a normal person.
He was an incurable yandere.
It was just that he had been acting so normal lately that she had almost forgotten.
Her face turned pale, but instead of panicking, she composed herself.
Smiling softly, she coaxed him, “Mm, all of me belongs to you.”
Yin Buqi finally looked satisfied.
A deep joy overflowed from his heart as he sprawled over her, burying his face in the crook of her neck, rubbing against her for a long while.
“I knew it. Niannian only loves me.”
His smile was gentle, his soft bangs brushing against his forehead.
Beneath his elegant features lay a childlike contentment and peace.
After a few more nuzzles, he suddenly lifted his head, gazing at her eyes with a lovesick intensity.
She was his—every part of her belonged to him.
The corners of his lips lifted into a delighted curve as he pressed a tender kiss against her lips.
“I love you so much, Niannian…”
He buried his face in her hair, his voice barely audible, as if talking to himself.
“Niannian belongs only to me…”
Jiang Niannian let out a slow breath.
Her yandere husband was possessive, but at least he was easy to appease.
Still… she suddenly felt a little sorry for the baby about to be born.
