An Unexpected Turn: Villain Becomes Dad

Chapter 3 - Let's Call Him Yang Chi!

Chapter 3 — Let’s Call Him Yang Chi!

Happy times are always short-lived.

After a month of ploughing the field, Lin Xilan had conceived a child. However, after conceiving, Yang Chen was made to abstain. Especially after her belly grew, he wasn’t allowed to touch her at all.

Ten months of pregnancy passed by quickly.

In the room, a loud cry rang out. Then, the midwife shouted, “Master Yang, it’s a son! Congratulations!”

Yang Chen quickly walked into the room. The maid brought the child to him.

“Master, look, the young master is so adorable!”

Having the experience of living on Earth in past life, Yang Chen deeply understood that at this moment, the most important thing was not to see the child, but the child’s mother.

Yang Chen walked straight to the bed and affectionately held Lin Xilan’s soft and tender hand.

“My wife, you’ve worked hard!”

Feeling the warmth and care in Yang Chen’s palm, Lin Xilan felt her eyes moisten. She was deeply moved by Yang Chen’s actions.

“Husband! To be able to give birth to a son for you, Xilan feels so happy!”

Yang Chen hugged Lin Xilan.

The midwife and the maid were both stunned. In this world, which man didn’t immediately hug his son upon entering the birthing chamber? But he, the master, didn’t even look at his son, he just went straight to hug his wife.

Ah. The love between the master and his wife ran so deep!

The little maid at the side had her eyes filled with of envy. If her future husband could love her half as much as the master loved his wife, she would be willing to die right away.

“Husband!” Lin Xilan pushed against Yang Chen’s chest. During this time, because she had hired a maid, Lin Xilan’s form of address towards Yang Chen had also become more formal.

From calling him Brother Chen to calling him Husband.

“What’s wrong, wife?” Yang Chen asked.

“You, as a father, haven’t even gone to see our son yet!” Lin Xilan pouted.

Her husband really loved her too much. He hugged her as soon as he came in, without even going to see their son. Alas, although she was happy in her heart. But she couldn’t hoard her husband’s affection, and keep it all to herself.

“Alright, I’ll go see him now!” Yang Chen said as he got up and took the child from the maid’s hands. Looking at the adorable little guy, Yang Chen also felt some emotion in his heart.

He now had a son.

He was now a father.

Lin Yan, your junior brother, my son, but also your real brother. Even if you find out about all this in the future, for the sake of your mother and your brother, you can’t kill me, right? After all, I’m your brother’s real father. You wouldn’t want your brother to end up like you, without a father, right?

But just then. A mechanical voice sounded in Yang Chen’s mind.

[Ding! Host’s son is born, plundering the Son of Destiny, Lin Yan, of 3,000 points of Providence Luck, rewarding the host with 3,000 points of Villainous Points!]

[The Great Villain System is officially activated!]

“Hmm?” Yang Chen was stunned.

System?

After his transmigration, he had also hoped for a System. But there was no sign of a System for a long time, so he had given up. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have tried to conquer the male lead’s mother to save his life.

But now. After his wife gave birth to his son, the system was activated. This system, was a bit untimely. After all, he now was Lin Yan’s stepfather. Wasn’t the system asking him to deal with his stepson!

“System, tell me your function!”

Yang Chen thought in his heart.

[Host, first let me explain this world to you. This world is formed by the integration of many fantasy novels, with multiple protagonists that have the fates of the Sons of Destiny!]

[The Sons of Destiny are blessed with great providence luck. You only need to plunder the luck from them, and you can get Villainous Points as a reward!]

[Villainous Points can be used to exchange for techniques, magical powers, treasures, talents, and cultivation, etc.!]

[Currently, the mother of the Son of Destiny, Lin Xilan, has given birth to a son for the host. This child is the younger brother of the Son of Destiny, automatically plundering 3,000 points of Providence Luck from the Son of Destiny!]

With the system’s explanation, Yang Chen gradually understood. He had read countless novels of this type online. It was still that kind of system.

It’s just that this time, he got the reward completely because of his son. Because his son is Lin Yan’s brother. So, as soon as he was born, he automatically plundered his brother’s luck.

Hehe.

He really is my good son! Just born and has already earned me 3,000 points of Villainous Points.

Hehe.

If that’s the case, then I’ll have to work harder in the future. Strive to give Lin Yan more younger siblings!

“Husband, what’s wrong with you? Why do you have a smile like that, it’s a little scary?”

Noticing the strange smile on Yang Chen’s face, Lin Xilan hurriedly asked.

Yang Chen came back to his senses and explained, “Wife, I just thought of a few names that I found too funny, so I couldn’t help but smile! My lady, please forgive me for that!”

“Oh, so husband, you’re thinking of a name for our child!” Lin Xilan suddenly became interested.

“Husband, what do you think would be a good name for our son? We didn’t know the gender before, so we couldn’t pick a name yet. Now that we know it’s a son, we should think about it more carefully!”

Yang Chen held the child in one hand and pulled her into his arms with the other.

The maid and the midwife beside them were full of envy as they looked at Lin Xilan, then tactfully retreated.

“Husband, how about we name our son Yang Wu?”

“He was born at noon, and also, your name has a Chen character in it, so it’s just right for our son to have a Wu character!”

At these words, a smile curved up at the corner of Yang Chen’s mouth.

Then, he heavily patted her well-shaped rump below her waist, and gently rebuked, “Nonsense, morning and noon are equal, how can our son be the same as his father? When we name our son, we shouldn’t look at me, we should look at his brother! Lin Yan’s name has a Yan character in it, so our son’s name should be similar to his brother’s. Well, let’s name him Chi! Let’s call him Yang Chi! When morning comes, one’s fiery and the other blazes!”*

TL notes:

Wu (午): The character “Wu” means “noon” or “midday” in Chinese. In this context, it’s suggested as a name for the son because he was born at noon. Using a character related to the time of birth is a traditional way to name children in Chinese culture.

Chi (炽): The character “Chi” means “burning” or “blazing.” It’s chosen as a name because it is similar to the “Yan” (炎) character in Lin Yan’s name. Naming the son with a character similar to his older brother’s name is seen as harmonious and respectful of family traditions.

Chen (辰) means “morning” or “early day,” which contrasts with the “Wu” character for noon.

*a poetic way of expressing their relationship.
