Doomsday Shift: Reborn as a Pretty Boy in a Male-Infested World

"That's enough!"

The soft but authoritative voice cut through the noise like a blade.

Jiang Xiuran, who was momentarily stunned after being slapped squarely in the face, stood slowly. His small pretty face that would make any woman cry injustice was cold and unreadable.

With one graceful motion, his hips swayed like a palm tree and fluidly walk in his grey cardigan. Without a warning, once he reached the clamoring men, he sharply elbowed his husband and glared at him for making a huge fuss over nothing.

"Ugh! Wife, why did...!"

"Get out!"

"But H-Honey..."

"You're delaying Ah Yue's treatment. All of you, especially you, old man. How could you say that when Ah Yue's already suffering as it is? You don't get to decide whether my son gets punish or treated! I will deal with you later. Now, get out! Or else..." she squinted his eyes as a warning and the surrounding air suddenly became scalding.

"A-ah! Mom, stop! We're going out! Really so don't burn the house! We're going ah!"

The three boys ran out of the room like their butt's were on fire. Clearly, knowing how to distinguish the boss in the house. Meanwhile, Fang Wei, despite his huge size could only whimper like a huge puppy but ultimately, he was only got glared at by his wife. He was clearly just trying to take her side and teach that brat a lesson after quickly confirming that there was no trace of life-threatening venom in his system using his stigma's power!

But why is he being scolded again?

Haiya. Children are more precious the husband. And the youngest is always the apple of the eye. What a truly unfair world! Fang Wei sobbed inwardly and sighed.

Seeing him unmoving, Jiang Xiuran raised a brow and crossed his arms. "Still not leaving? Are you trying to make me angry, Commander Fang?"

"Huh?" Fang Wei p, who was lamenting snapped back to reality, "N-No, dear! I'm going, honey. I'm going! Please don't be angry..." He replied at once and hurriedly made an exit after seeing the blazing look in his wife's face.

Just like that, Jiang Xiuran ushered the whole family out or to be exact kicked them out. But who would dare complain? With a snap of his fingers, the room emptied, leaving only him and the despondent 'Fang Mingyue'.

He walked over and sat elegantly on the bedside sofa.

"Son," he said, voice low. "Everyone's gone. Now tell Mom the truth."

He leaned forward, eyes sharp and scrutinizing.

"The bloodstains on your pants. They weren't from a snake bite, were they?"

Mingyue blinked, still dazed. The moment the other person inch their gap and stared directly at her bare face like he had some agenda in his mind, she began to feel panicky and clutched her comforter tight. Mingyue retreated back, looking very fearful, until her back hit the headboard.

"Don't move... If you come any closer I will punch you! I swear!" she threatened but her strange behavior only made Jiang Xiuran's lips twitch in dissatisfaction. This son of his, just what kind of spoiled medicine is he taking?

Mingyue sighed a little in her heart when she saw the pretty man showed no signs of getting closer. She might've been a frail woman in her past life but she survived that nightmarish place filled with zombie hordes for three months and killed her own husband.

If this person tries anything funny, she will not back down without putting up a fight!

Luckily, the other person didn't show any hostility towards her and only seemed to continue studying her reaction like she was a fine specimen. Now what was that again?

B-Bloodstains? Snake bite?

What is this person saying? What was going on?

If she was bitten she would've been dead for ages because of the slow treatment. She hadn't even begun to sort through the strange sensations in her body—and now she was being questioned like a criminal.

Right now, she reckons only one simple fact.

She had died. And somehow, she had awakened.

In a stranger's body, bearing the same name as hers but it was a man's body.

Same name... different fate.

Mingyue was feeling restless. Shouldn't there be at least a flow of memory or something to help her out of this confusing situation? Some kind of hint after possessing this body?

Oh god, what was she supposed to do now? How will she act with the original soul's family when she's so terrified around men? She doesn't even know how well their relationship were!

Furthermore...

'This boy's father told him to drop dead for hitting that person earlier. He's probably going to hit me too after hitting his other children!' Mingyue hugged herself anxiously and huddled in the corner in fear.

Regardless, however, looking at the bright side, Mingyue was puzzled. Was this heaven's way of offering her a second chance and consolation for the dreadful experience she had been put into?

If she's a man now... Perhaps, she won't share the same fate as her previous life and fall into the hands of some licentious bastards.

Her heart swelled a little and felt hopeful for a second. But before she could feel any sense of relief, Xiuran stood up suddenly. His deadly stilettos clicked sharply against the wooden floor, sending chills down her spine.

"You're still trying to play dumb with me? You think I won't know because you don't say? Do I look like a fool to you?" Jiang Xiuran's tone rose by a few decibels. "Your heat began. When did your omega genes activate? Spit it out and don't you dare look away when I'm talking to you, Fang Mingyue!"

His voice was low, icy and laced with potent threat but Mingyue could hardly fathom what she was talking about!

"You still won't talk, huh?"

"Don't you realize how dangerous it was for you to roam around in that kind of state? Are you begging to be defiled in public?!"

"You think the world will show you mercy just because you act innocent? What if a rogue alpha catches your scent while your brothers aren't around? Do you think you can fight them off with that frail body?"

Mingyue stared, stunned and felt like she was going deaf.

Heat? Omega? G-Get... r*pe in public?

She shuddered and her expression immediately turned awry and extremely pallid.

But she's a man now! She badly wanted to retort yet her voice was caught in her shaking throat.

Why?! Just why would she still be subjected into that horrendous thing even as a man?!

Is there really no safe place for her? Not even in this place? Just what kind of world had she been thrown into?

Mingyue's anxiety grew extremely by the second. Her body shook like a falling leaf while her eyes tremble in fear for her life once more.

Yet, before she could think clearly, heat surge through her abdomen and she felt her stomach churned.

A bitter, hot liquid rose to her dry throat and soon enough the inevitable came which made the usual cool in Jiang Xiuran's elegant face completely crumble into dust.

"Bleurgh!"

"A-Ah Yue!!"
