Instead of going back to Lu’s house for dinner, Shi Yi ordered a lot of desserts and snacks for himself. The egg waffles were bright yellow and soft, but as soon as he took a bite, he choked “Puff… cough cough cough…”
Fang Hui, who was opposite him, raised his head with confusion, “What’s wrong?”
“It’s nothing.” Shi Yi took out a tissue to wipe his mouth, and then looked at the WeChat message again. It was Lu Yunye’s handwriting, but the more he read this sentence, the more weirded out he was.
His decision to act as Xia Qian’s replacement on the catwalk was due to the time crunch, and Lu Yunye also knew about it.
Judging from his words, does he intend to go?
Shi Yi moved his fingers and replied:
[Yi: Thank you [smile.jpg]]
The prompt sounded soon:
[Lu Yunye: [smile.jpg].]
Fang Huiyi raised his head, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of two little yellow faces stacked on top of each other, not knowing what was going on.
Fang replied: “Who are you talking to?”
“My husband.” Shi Yi said. Fang Huiyi is his best friend, there is no need to hide it from him.
Fang Huiyi: ? ? ?
Fang Huiyi: “Fuck? When did you get married?!”
“No, that’s not the point!” Fang Huiyi was in no mood to gossip. “With whom?”
“Lu Yunye.” Shi Yi said.
Fang Huiyi’s eyes widened. “Why don’t you say anything? This is a big deal!”
“What’s the big deal with marriage?” Shi Yi glanced at him in confusion. “Isn’t it just two people living together?”
“Forget it, forget it, I can’t explain it to you.” Fang Huiyi knew that he was naturally slow when it came to relationships, so he waved his hands dismissively. “What’s the plan now, are you two going to make it public?”
“Only some close friends and clients know about it.” Shi Yi said truthfully.
“If you’re married and don’t make it public, what is Lu Yunye thinking?” Fang Huiyi muttered softly, “But that’s okay too.”
“If you make it public, those fans will definitely tear you up.”
“Oh…” Shi Yi has no idea about this. Nowadays, anyone with a little bit of ability can become an internet celebrity easily, and it’s not surprising that someone like Lu Yunye, who can be the president of the Lu Group at a young age, has fans.
After the shock subsided, Fang Huiyi lowered his head and his gossiping soul reignited. “Those little fanboys in our company who like you will definitely be heartbroken if they find out that you’re taken.”
“No one likes me,” Shi Yi laughed. “Don’t talk nonsense.”
“There are so many!” Fang Huiyi shot a reproachful look back. “Alpha, beta, and many little O’s.”1shorthand for omega. A is shorthand for alpha. And AO for alpha-omega, referring to a pair. Will use it sparingly as a casual replacement
“There are even omegas?” Shi Yi was in even more disbelief.
“Who’s our President Yi, an alpha among omegas!” Fang Huiyi waved his chopsticks. “Those pictures of you guarding the little models exploded, okay?”
“If it weren’t for me not doing OO2omega-omega love, I would’ve joined in!”
“Hurry up and eat.” Shi Yi broke half of the egg waffle and gave it to him. “Your mouth doesn’t even stop when eating.”
Fang Huiyi: “Just now you were sending messages to Lu Yunye, with such a strange expression.”
“Yeah.” Shi Yi said, “He said he was going to come to Sika’s show.”
“Hey, hey, since when does President Lu attend such a small event like ours? It’s too obvious who he’s here for.” Fang Huiyi winked. “Don’t worry, I’ll give you a beautiful makeover, guaranteed to amaze everyone!”
“Stop joking.”
After chatting for a while, it was almost ten p.m. when Shi Yi left the office.
Based on Lu Yunye’s schedule, if there is nothing planned, it’ll be bedtime.
When Shi Yi returned home, he did not see anyone in the hall.
He went upstairs lightly, and suddenly realized that his actions were a bit stupid. The sound insulation is so good, his walking won’t disturb Lu Yunye.
Just when he was about to relax his vigilance, the door of the study suddenly opened.
Shi Yi raised his eyebrows and greeted subconsciously, “You’re still awake?”
“Why did you come back so late?” Lu Yunye asked.
“I had work.” Shi Yi recalled the night of arguing with Fang Huiyi, feeling a little guilty.
Lu Yunye: “You’ve been very busy recently.”
“About a week…” Shi Yi said awkwardly.
Lu Yunye: “Five days.”
“I can understand that you’re busy with work,” Lu Yunye continued, “but you are married now, and family should also be in your consideration.”
Shi Yi suddenly felt like a scumbag who abandoned his wife and son, indulging in feasting and nightlife, leaving his wife at home alone to guard an empty nest.
Shi Yi glanced at Lu Yunye, whose thin lips were tightly pursed, obviously displeased, and asked uncertainly, “Then I’ll come back sooner?”
“No need,” Lu Yunye regained his normal look. “I’ll wait for you at Feiyi.”
“No, no need,” Shi Yi said hastily. “I will try to work as little overtime as possible in the future.”
He has been procrastinating these days and doesn’t want to go home. One is because he has work to finish, and the other is because he wants to eat some desserts in the evening. Such plans will definitely be seen through by Lu Yunye’s eyes.
“I can’t be seen?” Lu Yunye frowned.
“That’s not what I meant,” Shi Yi hurriedly explained. “After all, our marriage has not been made public. Your coming to Feiyi will easily cause unnecessary misunderstandings.”
“Misunderstandings?” Lu Yunye frowned even deeper, “It’s not like we did anything we need to disclose. Why are you worried?”
Shi Yi: “…” It’s not that.
“I understand,” Lu Yunye said, “I will find someone to handle this matter.”
“No…”
What did he understand? Shi Yi was about to refuse, when he was interrupted by Lu Yunye.
Lu Yunye: “Since you are very busy at the company, in order to ensure our time together, we will share a room to sleep from now on.”
“But you said before that in order to avoid unnecessary situations, it’s better for us to sleep in separate rooms.” Shi Yi struggled for a while, always feeling that it was awkward to lie on the same bed with Lu Yunye when both of them were awake.
“But I need your pheromone.” Lu Yunye said lightly.
Shi Yi finally came to his senses, “Lu Yunye… do you not feel well again?”
“Susceptibility period?”
Lu Yunye nodded silently.
“Then… alright.” Shi Yi reluctantly agreed.
He remembered what Song Wei said before that the susceptible period is a stress reaction from an alpha not being able to get enough attention from their omega partner. He didn’t go home on time for a week, and early symptoms of susceptibility already appeared. Isn’t this a little too frequent?
After Shi Yi finished washing and came to Lu Yunye’s bedroom, Lu Yunye had already lain down on the bed.
He quietly went around to the other side, opened a corner of the quilt to get in, and turned off the light.
Lu Yunye, who was supposed to be asleep, turned over, shuffling around as if looking for a heat source. Shi Yi only felt heat on his waist, and then the alpha’s arms had already wrapped his arms around his waist.
“You need to stay with me more.” Lu Yunye’s voice was very low in the darkness, and it was unknown if he was conscious or raving.
“Okay.” Shi Yi patted his arm like coaxing a child. Before Shu Wen suffered from insomnia due to illness, he just coaxed him like this, allowing Shu Wen to sleep drowsily for a while under his care.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yunye was still not satisfied. He familiarly rubbed Shi Yi’s neck, found his gland, and gently touched it with his lips.
Shi Yi froze. He didn’t know why Lu Yunye was interested in his glands. They are neither soft nor fragrant, and so small and unable to secrete much pheromone.
However, a switch seemed to flip in Lu Yunye’s brain. After rubbing it back and forth twice, the back of Shi Yi’s neck began to swell, and immediately, a trace of pheromone overflowed.
At first, the pheromone of omega was almost tasteless, but Lu Yunye could feel it. It’s like a colorless and odorless rain falling in a dry snow field, insignificant and imperceptible, but moistening things silently.
Shi Yi restrained himself not to slap him away, and tried his best to endure this kind of behavior similar to a puppy hugging its favorite toy. Omega pheromones gradually became more concentrated, gathering into a light astringent taste, like an underripe peach.
Shi Yi: Hard on the outside, soft on the inside
Lu Yunye: Hard on the inside and outside to outsiders, but soft to his wifey
