Uchiha of Zero Zone

In the room, Ambi was sitting in front of the computer, boredly watching the TV program that Nekomata played for her.

The content of the program is about children's education. This was Nicole's request. She said that it is useful for the fetus, so it must be watched.

Ambi had no objection to this. She obeyed Nicole's arrangements because Zhong Yan said that everything during the pregnancy must be subject to Nicole's instructions.

"Hmm? What's that noise outside?" At this moment, Ambi suddenly heard a noise coming from outside the room.

Then, she heard Zhong Yan's name.

This made her realize that it was Zhong Yan who came to visit her.

Thinking of this, she quickly stood up. Seeing this, the cat next to her immediately went over to support her.

Afterwards, the two left the room and came to the living room, where they saw Zhong Yan being scolded by Nicole.

Anbi was very happy about Zhong Yan's arrival. With the help of Maoyou, he stepped forward and said, "Zhong Yan..."

Hearing An Bi's voice, Zhong Yan, who had originally lowered his head, immediately turned his head.

Compared to when she first started to take care of her baby, Ambi's belly is now much bigger. Not only can she no longer jump up and down like before, it's even difficult for her to walk alone.

Zhong Yan didn't know how to describe his feelings, because as Anbi's belly grew bigger and bigger, the day when he would become a father was gradually approaching.

This was too shocking for him, who was only in his twenties. Most of the time, he thought he was a child. How could he become a father?

However, as things had developed to this point, he naturally would not deny it, and he immediately stepped forward to help Nekomata support Ambi.

"Zhong Yan, this is for you..." After Zhong Yan held her arm, Ambi let go of Nekomata's hand, then took out a folded piece of white paper from her pocket and handed it to Zhong Yan.

Zhong Yan took the white paper with some confusion. After opening it, he found that it was covered with densely written words.

Without exception, all of these characters begin with the character “钟” (clock). Some have two characters, some have three, and occasionally four characters.

Obviously, these are the names An Bi prepared for her children. Perhaps she couldn't decide which one to choose, so she left it to Zhong Yan to decide.

Zhong Yan had thought about the child's name before. If there was no particular requirement, then just any nice name would be fine. But if there was a lot of emphasis on it, then it would be quite troublesome.

"I've been thinking of a name for him recently, but I don't know whether it's a boy or a girl, and I don't know which one to choose. Zhong Yan, you decide." Anbi said softly, with a hint of anticipation slowly emerging in his eyes.

Zhong Yan didn't want to disappoint her, so he began to carefully observe the names on the paper, and finally his eyes fell on one of them.

Zhong Ling.

This name can be used for both boys and girls, and it doesn't have too many requirements and it's not ugly. It seems to be a very good choice.

"Or... let's take this one." Zhong Yan handed the paper to An Bi and pointed to the name he had chosen.

When Anbi heard this, he just took a look and nodded directly, saying, "Okay, this is it."

Sure enough, no matter what decision Zhong Yan made, she would support him without hesitation.

"You have to have your own opinions sometimes. Do you really like this name?" Zhong Yan stretched out his fingers, gently stroked Anbi's cheek a few times, and said in a helpless tone.

"I like him very much, just like I like Zhong Yan." Anbi responded seriously, not looking like he was joking at all.

Zhong Yan didn't know what to say about this.

Just at this moment, Nicole's voice came from the kitchen: "Nekomata! Dinner will be ready soon, come and take the plates out!"

"Here I come!" Upon hearing this, Mao Yu immediately ran into the kitchen, carefully picked up the plate full of dishes, and placed it on the dining table in the living room.

Seeing this, Zhong Yan and An Bi looked at each other, then the former helped the latter sit at the dining table, waiting for the upcoming dinner.

Soon after, plate after plate of sumptuous dishes were served on the table. It turned out that Nicole was really taking care of Ambi. Any dish on the table was a nutritious supplement.

Of course, the price would not be low, but it didn’t matter. Nicole was very rich, because she had hooked up with such a big moneybag like Zhong Yan.

After dinner, Zhong Yan said goodbye to An Bi. In a few months at most, the baby in her belly would be born. As a father, Zhong Yan thought he should prepare some things in advance.

So, time passed quietly as he prepared.

......

Half a month later, when it was afternoon, Zhong Yan was sitting on the subway on his way home.

The temperature in New Elido is extremely low in winter, but the subway provides comfortable heating 24 hours a day, so sitting inside will not only not make you feel cold, but will also make you more likely to fall asleep.

Just when Zhong Yan's eyes were about to close completely, the vibrating cell phone in his hand suddenly woke him up.

When he opened the screen of his mobile phone, he saw that it was Zhe who sent him a message.

It’s really strange to say, when the Phaethon siblings contacted him before, it was basically Ling who sent the messages, but I didn’t expect that it would be Zhe this time.

[Zhe: Zhong Yan, the official organization has invited us to conduct a large-scale sweep of Hole Zero. They said that the ether activity of Hole Zero has dropped significantly recently, so they plan to let the air defense department lead us into the depths of the hole.]

[Zhe: Logically speaking, we should bring you with us on this operation, but I don’t know what’s going on with Ling. She refused to let me tell you and even randomly pulled a few agents over from the rope net.]

[Zhe: I know something must have happened between you two. As a brother, I will definitely not let you do anything to let my sister down, but I know that she likes you very much, so I think you two should find an opportunity to have a good talk.]

Zhe sent many messages to Zhong Yan in a row. Looking at these words, Zhong Yan couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Ling's reaction was indeed within his expectations, but he had not yet figured out how to talk to her about this matter.

Right now, it seems that all we can do is wait.

However, they had to go deep into Cave Zero, where the number of corpses was terrifyingly large, and the risk factor was extremely high.

Therefore, Zhong Yan planned to protect the two secretly to prevent them from encountering any accidents.
