Li Xin was pregnant, and Benjamin was very worried about his health. After all, the probability of beta conception was low, and accidents were easy to happen during pregnancy. To be on the safe side, Benjamin took him to a specialist to get Li Xin a comprehensive examination. After the examination, the doctor concluded that Li Xin’s body was normal and the child was fine. He also told Li Xin many things to pay attention to. Li Xin was confused by all this, but Benjamin wrote all the instructions down one by one.
The two stayed in the hospital for one night, and after being discharged from the hospital the next morning, Benjamin took Li Xin back to the family home in the military region.
Benjamin also informed both families about the good news of Li Xin’s pregnancy. Li Xin’s mother was very worried. Male beta pregnancy was very dangerous. She was afraid that something might happen to her son. So, that afternoon, she came over with Li Xin’s father to visit her son.
She thought life in the military district would be very difficult, but she didn’t expect that the conditions in the military district in Capital Star were particularly good, especially the family home, which was arranged like a park. The air was fresh, the environment was beautiful, and it was very quiet. It was very suitable for pregnant people to live here and raise their babies safely. And with Benjamin here, there was absolutely no need to worry about safety. The medical conditions of the army were good, and there were also special military hospitals.
After the two of them saw the living environment, most of their worries were relieved. And when they saw their son again, their hearts were completely put back in their stomachs – because Li Xin looked good, with rosy cheeks and bright eyes with smiles. He was obviously happy to have a baby.
Mother Li held his hand and told him: “Betas have a special constitution and there will be risks during pregnancy. You must pay more attention. If you feel uncomfortable, just tell the general. Don’t be careless, understand?”
Li Xin nodded seriously: “Don’t worry, mom, I will take care of myself.”
He was a little shy when he said this. He had promised his parents that he would marry a wife back home to have children, but now he was pregnant. Benjamin noticed his discomfort, smiled and came over to hold Li Xin’s hand, and said to Mother Li: “Mom, I asked a specialist from the army to help Li Xin take care of his body. In the future, I will ask the doctor to give Li Xin regular checkups which will ensure that he can deliver the baby safely.”
The parents looked at each other and were very satisfied with Benjamin.
In the days that followed, Li Xin lived a leisurely life with “food appearing when he opened his mouth and clothes appearing when he stretched out his hands.” Benjamin was worried about his health and wouldn’t let him cook, so he brought nutritious food back to him every day. Morning and evening, he would hold his hand and go for a walk in the yard, let him do some exercises, and let the baby go out to breathe fresh air.
Li Xin was bored at home. In addition to dealing with things in the studio, he spent the rest of the time looking up information about taking care of a baby, such as how to feed the baby after birth, how many months for complementary foods, and how many months it would take for the baby to learn to speak, how to do prenatal education…
From an ignorant novice to a prepared father who had learned a lot of knowledge, Li Xin was making progress little by little.
And his belly was getting bigger day by day.
People in the military region had known about Li Xin’s pregnancy for a long time, but the general hid his lover in the family courtyard so that no one could see him. One time, Li Xin was bored and asked Benjamin to take him shopping in the military supermarket. They happened to meet a few familiar officers. Everyone saw Li Xin’s bulging belly and admired General Benjamin’s ability – he had been married for such a short time. The general was so awesome at even getting a beta man pregnant!
They thought so in their heart, but of course they didn’t dare to say it with their mouth. Several officers came over and said hello politely to Benjamin. By the way, they also paid attention to Li Xin: “When will Brother Li give birth to the baby? Let us prepare gifts for the baby in advance.”
Li Xin was very embarrassed with his big belly and his cheeks were slightly red: “The due date should be September.”
The officers expressed their congratulations.
After they left, Benjamin looked at Li Xin’s red face and couldn’t help but joke in his ear: “You are about to become a father, why are you so embarrassed?”
Li Xin touched his belly awkwardly and said: “I just feel a little weird.”
It was really weird for a beta man to have a child in his belly.
Benjamin smiled softly and took Li Xin’s hand to take him home. As soon as they got home, Li Xin suddenly covered his stomach, his face turned pale, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat. Benjamin was frightened, then he immediately helped Li Xin sit down by the bed, and asked nervously: “What’s wrong? Where are you not feeling well? I’ll call a doctor!”
Seeing that the general was anxious and turned around to call a doctor, Li Xin quickly grabbed him and said awkwardly: “It’s okay, the little guy kicked me just now.”
Benjamin was startled and looked at Li Xin’s belly: “The kid kicked you?”
Li Xin nodded, took the general’s hand and put it on his abdomen: “You touch it.”
Benjamin carefully placed his palm on Li Xin’s bulging abdomen. The child inside seemed to sense his father’s touch and kicked him hard. Sensing that the palm of his hand was kicked hard, Benjamin felt very strange and couldn’t help but say: “Does this little guy kick you often?”
Li Xin’s eyes became very soft and he nodded and said: “Well, he has been kicking me often recently, and he is very energetic.”
Benjamin tapped Li Xin’s stomach lightly and said, “Don’t bully daddy!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the restless guy in his stomach kicked Li Xin hard again. After a few new kicks, Benjamin clearly saw Li Xin’s belly bulging out from being kicked by the child. Out of curiosity, he leaned over and put his ear to his belly to listen. The little guy was indeed full of energy, kicking one after another, seemingly wanting to establish a sense of presence in front of his father. Benjamin couldn’t help but chuckle: “You’re so naughty before you’re even born!”
Li Xin also laughed and said softly: “I have a feeling he’s an alpha, and he might look more like you.”
“I hope he looks more like you.” Benjamin looked at Li Xin’s eyes tenderly, “A baby who looks like you will be very cute.”
Li Xin felt warm in his heart. No matter who the child looked like, he would like a child that combined the genes of the two of them.
….
Li Xin’s baby was becoming more and more energetic and restless in his belly, often making Li Xin unable to sleep.
Originally his due date was in September, but on the morning of August 8th, Benjamin was discussing matters with several of his officers in the conference room, when he suddenly received a call from Li Xin.
Li Xin had unbearable abdominal pain when he woke up in the morning. He was rolling in bed in pain and had broken into cold sweats all over his body. Li Xin, who noticed something was wrong, immediately called Benjamin. The communication devices between the two did not need to be verified for direct connection. Li Xin rarely bothered the general with calls during the day, but this time the situation was obviously serious.
“I, my stomach hurts, uh…” Hearing the man’s weak voice in his ear, Benjamin’s heart tightened, and he immediately comforted him in a low voice, “Don’t worry, I’ll be right over!” He put down the communication device, raised his head and said, “My lover has something for me to do. I’ll go back first.”
The other officers all expressed their understanding: “General, go quickly!”
“Could it be that the baby is going to be born early?”
The officers looked at each other and followed him nervously.
As soon as they arrived at the military hospital, they saw Benjamin’s face looking extremely ugly. He took Li Xin out of the car and strode to the hospital.
Li Xin in his arms bit his lip in pain, his lips were pale, and his face was covered with sweat. He seemed to be scared, and his slender fingers clenched Benjamin’s arm tightly as if holding a life-saving straw. Benjamin was so distressed that he wished he could grow a pair of wings and fly directly to the hospital.
Fortunately, the military hospital was close to the family housing. He rushed to the hospital emergency room as quickly as possible and found the doctor who had been responsible for Li Xin’s physical examination during the pregnancy. His voice was trembling with nervousness: “Doctor, look at him quickly. My lover suddenly had a stomachache…”
As soon as the doctor checked Li Xin’s condition, he said, “You may have to give birth prematurely, prepare for surgery quickly!”
Benjamin put Li Xin on the stretcher and saw that Li Xin’s face was pale. He was so anxious that he was about to collapse, but on the surface, he remained calm, gently held Li Xin’s hand, and said softly: “Don’t be afraid, I will always be by your side to accompany you.”
At the door of the operating room, the doctor held his hand to stop Benjamin outside, but Benjamin was very stubborn and insisted on following.
It was difficult for a beta to conceive, thus the process of childbirth would obviously be more dangerous for them than that for an omega. Benjamin didn’t want Li Xin to bear this risk alone, so he must keep an eye on him. The doctor had no choice but to have the general put on a set of sterile clothes and let him enter the operating room.
Seeing Li Xin’s lower abdomen being cut open with cold instruments, Benjamin was so distressed that he almost went crazy.
If he had known this would happen, he would rather not have let Li Xin get pregnant and suffer this fate.
The doctor used local anesthesia while taking out the child. With the current medical conditions, special sutures would be used on the abdomen, which would not leave any scars after healing. Li Xin’s consciousness was still clear. He had already checked the information and was mentally prepared, but he didn’t expect that Benjamin would also follow.
Seeing the general wearing sterile clothes standing next to the doctor, Li Xin’s eyes turned wet and he asked hoarsely: “What are you doing here…”
Benjamin gently grabbed his hand: “I said I would stay with you. Don’t be afraid, we will wait for the child to be born together.”
Li Xin nodded.
The general held his fingers tightly, and the warmth from between his fingers spread along the blood vessels to the bottom of his heart.
Perhaps because of the company of his lover, Li Xin felt much better. The pain was relieved by the anesthetic, and the fear of his body being cut open also gradually dissipated. The doctor acted very quickly. Within a few minutes, a loud cry came from the room –
“Woo!” The child cried so loudly that Benjamin was startled. He looked up and saw that the nurse was already holding the child quickly, then she washed his body, wrapped him in swaddling clothes and brought him over to show Benjamin.
The surgeon in charge smiled and said: “Congratulations, General, it’s a son. Although he was born prematurely, the child has developed very well and is no different from a full-term baby. The little guy probably couldn’t wait to come out to see you.” Li Xin and Benjamin looked sideways at each other. After taking a quick look, they saw that the baby was still crying, and his facial features were wrinkled and looked particularly ugly…
The doctor said: “A newborn baby is like this. The facial features haven’t developed yet, and it will be fine in a few days. Let me take the baby for genetic testing first?”
Benjamin nodded: “Well, I’ll be troubling you.”
The doctor took the child to the side for testing. Benjamin then leaned over, gently rubbed Li Xin’s hair and said, “Thank you for your hard work.”
Li Xin shook his head with a gratified smile appeared on his face: “It’s much better than expected. After the anesthesia, I didn’t feel anything…”
He didn’t feel anything while lying on the bed. But Benjamin stood beside him and saw the operation process clearly, seeing that his heart ached so much that it almost convulsed – his beloved’s abdomen was cut open like this, and the child was taken out. If something went wrong during the process, someone might have died.
It was also at this moment that Benjamin made up his mind not to let Li Xin get pregnant again.
One baby was enough.
Beta pregnancy itself was more difficult than omega pregnancy, and there were also great risks during delivery. He was not willing to let Li Xin experience it again.
Thinking of this, Benjamin’s eyes became gentler, and he kissed Li Xin’s pale face gently. Finally, a gentle kiss fell on Li Xin’s lips. Then Benjamin pressed his lips against his and whispered: “Baby, I love you.”
Li Xin’s face turned slightly red, as the doctor and nurse were still beside him. He still kissed him like this without being ashamed…
Just when Li Xin was embarrassed, the doctor brought the child back and said: “The test results came out, it’s an alpha baby.”
Li Xin was very happy at giving birth to an alpha baby, as now he would definitely look good like the general. When he grew up, he would be as tall and handsome as his father. But Benjamin was a little regretful – he had hoped that the child would be like Li Xin, and it was best not to be like him!
The news that Li Xin gave birth to an alpha boy soon spread throughout the circle of relatives and friends.
That afternoon, many people came to visit with gifts.
Because Li Xin had been taking good care of his body during pregnancy, he was in a good mental state after giving birth and his body had recovered very quickly. The baby was a little ugly when he was first born, but after he was fed and his eyes slowly opened, he started looking cuter and cuter.
Aidean smiled and said, “This child really looks like a replica of Benjamin when he was just born.”
Carlo was very happy when he saw his little grandson and said, “Yes, yes, his facial features look very much like Benjamin.”
Li Xin was extremely happy. Looking at the baby who looked like the general, his heart felt soft and he couldn’t bear to let go of the baby. Benjamin was helpless, always feeling that this boy would take away Li Xin’s love for him.
No, since the child was born, Li Xin’s gentle eyes had only been on the child, without even looking at his alpha.
Benjamin asked Li Xin to choose the child’s name himself. It was originally supposed to be Behe, but Benjamin instead said that the child should be named Li, followed by the surname of the Behe family, so that it sounded like both their child.
Li Xin thought hard and couldn’t think of anything good, so he named him Li Chen. Because the baby was born in the morning, his nickname was Chen Chen. Benjamin had no objection, and added Behe’s family name after Li Chen, naming him Li Chen Behe. The full name seemed strange, but now the major families in the empire were free to intermarry, and the names were thus becoming much longer. Benjamin thought it was good, so he registered the household registration information under this name.
