Good Pregnancy Quick Transmigration: The Overly Charming CEO with No Heirs

Lan Heng didn't say anything, but from then on, he followed Xi Yao almost every step of the way.

Wherever she is, he is there, like a quiet shadow.

Xi Yao couldn't do anything about him, so she could only try to take care of him as much as possible.

While she still had time, she turned the food she had stored in the space into finished products one by one, carefully packaged and frozen them.

That way, Lan Heng can still eat for a while after she leaves.

Watching her busy figure, Lan Heng's eyes shone with a faint light.

He quietly wrapped his arms around her waist from behind, gently pressing his face against her back, his voice muffled:

"Yaoyao, will you really be there waiting for me in the future?"

Xi Yao paused in her chopping, suppressing a sigh, and answered gently:

"Yes, I will wait for you in twenty years, and I will never break my promise."

She came into this world specifically for him.

"If I grow up... can I come find you earlier?"

"No, my little darling." Xi Yao turned her head, her eyes serious. "Don't come looking for me. Even if you find someone who looks exactly like me, it won't be me."

She gently patted the back of his hand. "Wait patiently, I'll come find you."

"……good."

As evening approached, Lan Heng was summoned outside, told that the emperor wanted to see him.

Xi Yao was worried, but she didn't go. She just kept an eye on the situation from a distance using the system.

Only after confirming that everything was alright did she breathe a sigh of relief, turn around and silently wrap dumplings with the rolled-out dough, waiting for him to return.

When Lan Heng returned, his expression was somewhat cold. It wasn't until he saw the person waiting for him under the warm yellow light in the room that his expression softened little by little.

Xi Yao didn't ask any more questions. The two sat quietly facing each other and finished their dinner.

The next morning, the system suddenly notified her:

"A cute little one came to the door."

Xi Yao pushed open the door in confusion and found a fluffy thing in the corner.

It is only the size of two fists, covered in fluffy, jet-black fur, and round like a little pom-pom.

Its triangular ears stand up proudly, its eyes are round and bright, and its short feet are almost hidden in thick fur. It looks so cute and cuddly that it's absolutely adorable.

"My goodness, what an adorable little cutie!"

Xi Yao couldn't resist and ran over to hug it and rub it for a while.

The little furball just blinked and stared at her blankly, neither barking nor struggling.

"996, what is that? It's so cute!"

[Host, this is a Gulu Beast. It has a very long lifespan, and the Omegas here love to keep it.]

"Yaoyao, what's wrong?"

Hearing the commotion, Lan Heng quickly came out. Seeing that she was alright, he relaxed.

"Look! I've found a cutie!"

Xi Yao cradled the little one in her hands, presenting him with a treasure-like gesture, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons.

"I really want to have it."

"It's a Gulu Beast." Lan Heng's gaze softened. "If Yao Yao wants to keep one, we'll keep it."

"But how did it get here? Could it be someone else's pet?"

[Host, it came here on its own after being abandoned.]

As soon as the system finished speaking, Lan Heng also spoke softly:

"No one in the palace keeps this. It probably ran away from outside. Since it's ownerless, it's yours now."

"Then I won't be polite!"

Xi Yao carried the docile little one into the house, then quietly asked the system:

"996, can I take it with me back?"

[No, host, I can only take us both back to the timeline twenty years in the future.]

it's a pity……

"What's wrong?" Lan Heng, who had been paying attention to her, noticed the dimness in her eyes.

"I can't take it with me." A faint melancholy crept into Xi Yao's voice.

"Is that so..."

Lan Heng lowered his eyes.

Like me, am I destined to be left behind?

"It's alright." He then raised his face and smiled gently. "I'll take care of it for you first, so you can hold it again when we meet again in the future."

In this way... wouldn't that create an extra bond, ensuring she'll always remember to wait for him in the future?

"Our little darling is so considerate." Xi Yao freed one hand to pinch his cheek. "Then let it stay with you for now. You must grow up happily."

(ง •̀_•́)ง

As night deepened, all was quiet.

Xi Yao sat on the chair, holding the Gulu Beast, and gently stroked its soft fur.

The little one curled up in her palm, making soft gurgling sounds, seemingly fast asleep.

Lan Heng stood in front of her, silent.

His gaze was fixed on her face, as if he wanted to etch her features into the depths of his pupils and remember her forever.

The air in the room seemed to have stood still; it was so quiet you could hear someone breathing.

"Time is almost up." Xi Yao looked up and smiled at him with a deliberately relaxed expression.

She gently placed the Gulu Beast into Lan Heng's arms. "From now on, it will be your little friend. Its name is Lele. Take good care of it, and more importantly, take good care of yourself."

Lan Heng caught the warm little ball of fur, but his arm was a little stiff.

He wanted to say something, but his throat felt like it was blocked by something, so he could only hug the little beast in his arms tighter, his knuckles turning slightly white.

The 996 notification sound rang in Xi Yao's mind:

[Host, teleportation countdown begins: ten, nine, eight...]

Xi Yao stood up and ruffled Lan Heng's hair one last time, just like every time before.

"Remember my words, Lan Heng, grow up well and don't come looking for me. When the time comes, I will definitely come."

[Seven, Six, Five...]

Lan Heng's pupils contracted sharply, and he took a step forward, his free hand reaching out urgently to grab her sleeve.

[IV. Three...]

My fingertips only touched a corner of clothing that quickly became illusory.

Xi Yao's figure began to become transparent. "My little darling, I'll be waiting for you in the future."

【II.1.】

"Yao Yao—!"

Lan Heng's cries sounded particularly desolate in the silence.

He lunged forward, but his arms passed through the fading light and shadow, only embracing a room full of cold air.

The light flickered slightly.

Xi Yao disappeared.

Absolutely nothing was left behind, as if she had never been there, and the companionship of the past few days was just a beautiful dream that felt too real.

Only the slight trembling of the startled Gulu Beast in his arms proved that what had just happened was not an illusion.

Lan Heng remained frozen in his forward-embracing posture.

He kept his head down, his bangs obscuring his eyes, making his expression impossible to see.

Only those thin shoulders were trembling violently and silently.

The Gulu Beast seemed to sense its master's collapsing emotions, and gently stirred in his arms, making a soft "gurgling" sound, as if to comfort him.

After a long while, Lan Heng slowly straightened up.

There were no tears on his face, only an almost terrifying calm.

He looked down at the docile little beast in his palm, his fingertips gently combing its fur.

"She's gone," he said softly, his voice hoarse but unusually clear, "but she said she'd wait for me to grow up."

"I will grow up, and then I will take you to see her."

By then, he will certainly not be like he is now, unable to keep anything.
