OOCM chapter 55

Goodnight, Bad Morning

Drowsiness surged.

Before falling into the dream, Xiao Can vaguely sensed someone kissing the corner of his lips.

The refreshing scent of mint lingered in his breath, making him feel extremely comfortable, and when he closed his eyes, he felt completely satisfied.

He had a very quiet dream.

In the dream, he sat on a huge and soft cushion, sitting quietly with his legs crossed.

A man with an indistinct face walked up to him and sat down next to him.

Xiao Can felt a little uncomfortable.

“Move back a bit,” he reached out and pointed further away.

The other person thought quietly for a moment, then got up and did as he was told.

When the man left, the comforting scent in the air also faded away.

Xiao Can felt reluctant, seeing the man walking far away with his back turned, he had to get up and actively move closer.

He felt embarrassed to get too close, so he stopped after a few steps.

The other person seemed to hear the movement and turned back.

Xiao Can was very nervous, opened his mouth but didn’t know what to say, so he just smiled.

The other person walked straight to him, took his hand, and asked, “Can I stand here?”

Xiao Can blinked blankly.

“Here?” he repeated in confusion.

The other person nodded.

“Where is here?” he asked again.

The other person was silent for a moment and replied, “Probably… a place where I can kiss you anytime.”

While pondering the answer, he suddenly felt a gentle touch on his cheek, causing a slight itch.

He squinted his eyes and shrunk his neck.

The man in front of him, along with the soft cushion, disappeared from his sight, and a small, hard object was gently touching his earlobe.

His consciousness gradually awakened. He heard a familiar voice, whispering softly with a suppressed voice, “Don’t move, or I’ll kick you out again.”

Xiao Can opened his eyes.

What came into view was a faint warm yellow light and a magnified green head with a small red beak.

“…Charlie?” he softly called out with a hoarse voice.

“Disturbing you?” He Xingzhou reached out and poked Charlie’s head, “Told you not to fidget.”

Being forcibly awakened from a dream was definitely a terrible experience, but Xiao Can was not annoyed at all. He chuckled softly and asked, “Little troublemaker, how did you come here?”

Of course, Charlie wouldn’t answer.

“I was afraid he would be angry if it stayed locked up all night, so I brought him over to comfort him,” He Xingzhou said, “he pulls out his butt fur when he gets angry.”

“Such a temper!” Xiao Can exclaimed in surprise and amusement.

“I didn’t mean to disturb you,” He Xingzhou explained.

“What time is it?” Xiao Can asked.

“Three thirty. He’ll calm down and rest soon, you should sleep too.”

Xiao Can closed his eyes and murmured, “Goodnight.”

“Goodnight,” He Xingzhou responded.

Xiao Can smiled, “I was saying goodnight to Charlie.”

“I’ll answer for him,” He Xingzhou said.

He turned off the bedside lamp, and the room immediately became pitch black.

But Xiao Can couldn’t fall asleep.

With his usual routine, he should have only just fallen asleep at this hour. But now, he had already slept for a while and felt very awake.

The comfort brought by He Xingzhou’s pheromone pendant or being in the same room with He Xingzhou couldn’t compare to the exchange they had just a few hours ago.

Realizing belatedly, Xiao Can felt that the reason he was completely fine with being disturbed just now was not only because the one disturbing him was the cute Charlie, but also because his excellent satisfied condition made his emotions peaceful and serene.

As He Xingzhou had said, Charlie quickly returned to his place on the cabinet, quiet and not causing any trouble.

Xiao Can stared blankly for a while, unable to resist, he quietly put on his clothes.

About fifteen minutes later, He Xingzhou came back with a plate in hand. As soon as the bedroom door opened, a wave of fragrance hit them.

“What’s the good stuff?” Xiao Can asked eagerly.

“Fried shrimp cakes,” He Xingzhou said, “I was thinking of cooking noodles, but I guessed you wouldn’t finish them.”

“This is good, I like this,” Xiao Can reached out to take it, “Do you mind if I sit on the bed and eat?”

He Xingzhou shook his head with a smile.

Xiao Can crossed his legs and picked up a shrimp cake with chopsticks, took a bite, and made a crisp sound, filled with the delicious taste.

The shell of the shrimp cake was very thin, perfectly fried to a crispy texture. The shrimp inside intentionally retained some integrity, tender and juicy, with a hint of sweetness lingering in the mouth after swallowing.

“So delicious,” Xiao Can was very satisfied, “Where did you buy this?”

“I made it myself,” He Xingzhou said.

Xiao Can was instantly amazed, “So talented?”

“If you like, you can take some with you,” He Xingzhou said.

“…How can I accept that?” Xiao Can pretended to be polite.

He Xingzhou smiled with narrowed eyes, “I’m very happy if someone loves to eat.”

Xiao Can felt a bit embarrassed being looked at like that. He turned slightly to avoid, and casually asked, “Aren’t you tired?”

“A little bit,” He Xingzhou said, “but it’s okay, you eat slowly.”

Xiao Can lowered his head and silently took another bite of the shrimp cake. Suddenly, he realized that his current posture was somewhat similar to the one in his dream just now.

Was the person in the dream He Xingzhou?

Unlike in the dream, He Xingzhou was sitting on the edge of the bed at the moment, quietly watching him.

Xiao Can sneakily glanced at him and thought, He Xingzhou at this moment seems a bit unusual.

He looked almost like a normal person.

A decent, gentle, comforting Alpha that made people subconsciously want to rely on.

Was it because they had just had the most intimate contact between Alpha and Omega?

Xiao Can blushed suddenly.

Many fragments bubbled out of his mind like bubbles, and he belatedly felt ashamed and extremely embarrassed.

He had just been marked by He Xingzhou again.

Now he was sitting on He Xingzhou’s bed eating shrimp cakes.

Both of these actions gave him a strong positive feedback.

On his right side, the cute Charlie was sleeping soundly.

Everything that existed and happened in this room made him feel happy.

“Why are you staring at me?” Xiao Can grumbled.

“Sorry,” He Xingzhou turned his head away.

“Why are you being so honest now,” Xiao Can said, “Not like usual, speaking so provocatively.”

“Me? Provocative?” He Xingzhou was puzzled, “Really?”

“Yes,” Xiao Can said, “…I’m not used to it.”

“You are,” He Xingzhou said, “Since waking up until now, you haven’t scolded me once, which is quite rare.”

“Are you itching for it?” Xiao Can asked.

He Xingzhou touched his nose, “I mean… it’s nice.”

Xiao Can didn’t say anything more, blushing, he ate the last piece of shrimp cake.

He Xingzhou naturally took the bowl and chopsticks left by him and left the room again.

Xiao Can silently got back into bed, and soon after, He Xingzhou came back.

Seeing He Xingzhou also lying down after pulling up the blanket, Xiao Can suddenly became nervous.

There were guest rooms in He Xingzhou’s house, not just one.

They had already completed their task now, sharing a bed seemed unnecessary.

After hesitating for a long time, Xiao Can didn’t say anything in the end.

He Xingzhou turned off the light again and whispered, “Goodnight.”

Xiao Can pursed his lips and responded with a voice only he could hear, “Goodnight.”

The next morning, Xiao Can was briefly awakened by Charlie.

He vaguely heard Charlie saying “hello,” and then He Xingzhou shushing.

There was a slight vibration under him, and soon the noise disappeared along with the vibration, and he fell asleep again.

When he finally woke up naturally, he found himself alone in the room.

The door was tightly closed, and it was quiet all around.

He sat up, feeling a bit dazed in the unfamiliar room. With the awakening of his consciousness, a pile of inexplicable and confusing emotions surged in his heart.

Feeling a bit lonely, embarrassed, anxious, and uneasy, but also secretly grateful.

Whether it was psychological or not, a certain part of him seemed to still have a slight sense of something foreign.

But compared to these slight discomforts, what he felt more was the lightness and freedom he had never experienced in the past six months.

The circulation inside his body also became active, although he had eaten supper before going to bed, he now felt hungry.

Since He Xingzhou liked cooking so much, he should have prepared breakfast for him, right?

With anticipation, Xiao Can got out of bed. As he walked out of the room, he felt excited and nervous at the thought of facing He Xingzhou.

He Xingzhou’s house was very large, and he hadn’t figured out the exact layout yet.

After circling around for a while, he finally found the familiar living room. Just as he was about to speak, he vaguely heard the sound of the doll machine operating.

Was he playing with Charlie?

Xiao Can strode into the living room, opened his mouth to say, “I’m hungry, I want to eat bre—”

His voice abruptly stopped halfway.

The figure standing in front of the doll machine with his back to him was noticeably thinner than He Xingzhou.

When the person turned around at the sound, they both looked surprised.

“Xia…Teacher Xia?” Xiao Can took a half step back.

The person playing with the doll machine was actually the recording engineer who ran the studio.

The other person looked him up and down. “Xiao Can? You… this is…”

Xiao Can screamed for help in his heart.

He was still wearing He Xingzhou’s oversized pajamas, with messy hair, obviously just waking up.

An Omega appearing in an Alpha’s home in such a manner was self-evident in its implications.

“I… I, um, stayed overnight…” Xiao Can dryly said, not even believing his own lie.

“Oh, I see,” the other person smiled awkwardly, “If you’re looking for He Xingzhou, he’s in the kitchen.”

“Okay, thank you,” Xiao Can smiled and nodded, then took a step back, turned around, and dashed towards the kitchen wearing slippers.

Just as he reached the door, he heard He Xingzhou’s voice from inside.

“You shouldn’t be so selfish, even as a bird, you know?”

Xiao Can rushed in and saw Charlie standing pitifully on the bird perch, his leg tied with a chain. He Xingzhou stood in front of the bird perch, arms crossed, looking serious.

Seeing him, He Xingzhou immediately turned around. “Awake?”

Xiao Can rushed over in three steps, grabbed his collar with both hands, and gritted his teeth, “Why is Teacher Xia in your house?”
