The party was held at the central hotel of Star Y. It was a relatively important Charity Dinner for Star Y. All Military and Political officials from Star Y were present, and celebrities from the business world also came one after another. They said that it was a charity gala, but it was actually a Vanity Fair.
Chi Jing, as a well-known corporate leader on the Alliance’s rich list, was naturally invited. At the same time, as Luo Du’s wife, he represented Luo Du at the party.
No matter which identity he was in, he attracted much attention.
From the beginning of the introduction of special personnel, he was surrounded by people talking and clinking glasses. After a few words of greeting, they started talking about: Would he open a new factory in the near future? Where are you planning to open it? How is the selection of the location going? Is it going smoothly? Do you need my help? I heard that this batch of medical instruments is about to leave the factory? I wonder if there is any chance to cooperate………
Chi Jing responded to each of them one by one without being overbearing or warm and approachable. He just responded calmly, with a few words of agreement and a few replies.
This was already a very good reaction for everyone who knew Chi Jing. Who didn’t know that the Eldest Young Master of the Chi family and the newly appointed person in power have always been cold and ruthless?
It was already a big reward if he could give them a two-sentence response!
People came and went and surrounded Chi Jing one after another.
One of his assistants was knocked unconscious after drinking.
Chi Jing asked the other assistant to take him to find a place to rest first. And he conveniently used the excuse of finding a place to get some fresh air for a while, and he got some food to eat.
But after a while, the minister of the Military Department of Star Y came to him. The other party was an Alpha in his fifties. In an era when the average person was 205 years old, those in their fifties were still young. And the other party could be the minister of the Military Department of a planet. In addition to his own ability, the family power behind him was also extraordinary.
This was true even for Luo Du. The Lou family gave him strong support, allowing him to break through the heavy encirclement and ascend to the position of minister of Political Affairs of the Alliance at the age of 30. After six years in power, he still firmly held power.
But Luo Du was still better. Chi Jing thought blankly. This crab seems to be a specialty of Star Y? It’s delicious. I have to bring some to Luo Du when I go back.
“Mr. Chi?”
Chi Jing heard the other party calling him and was annoyed that he was distracted. But he always had a cold face, and others couldn’t tell.
“Hello, Minister Alston.”
Minister Alston looked cultured, distinguished, and accomplished. He praised Chi Jing as if he were very generous and graceful, “I haven’t seen you for a long time. You are still so charming.”
But this offended Chi Jing.
Chi Jing’s appearance was clear and bright. His facial features were so beautiful that many stars in the entertainment industry were ashamed of themselves. Furthermore, his tall and thin figure made people jealous and envious. However, Chi Jing had always been cold and paralysed outside and distant and indifferent to everything and everyone. His temperament covered his appearance, making people ignore his appearance and dare not harass him.
But some people liked ice beauties like him. Especially Luo Du, and so did the Minister Alston in front of him. The difference was that Luo Du made him happy and softhearted, while this minister made him sick and disgusted.
What’s more, he was already a married man. Who was the other party insulting by saying such disrespectful things?
Chi Jing warned him, “Please respect yourself.”
“Haha, just kidding. Don’t be angry.” Minister Alston didn’t mind Chi Jing’s cold face at all. Instead, he glued his gaze to him, and his eyes were full of ugly desire.
Chi Jing didn’t want to talk to him anymore. Although he needed to attend social events for the company, it didn’t mean that he had to compromise and endure insults. So he put down the plate in his hand, looked back coldly, and said, “Sorry, excuse me.”
“Hey! Chi Jing, Mr. Chi……” Minister Alston stopped him, as if they were very intimate, and begged Chi Jing for mercy, “Okay, okay, I was wrong. I just came to congratulate you. Don’t you think your factory in Star Y needs to be expanded in the future? I’m here to fully support you and make Minister Lou worry-free. Can you give me face and have a drink?”
Chi Jing breathed steadily and said nothing.
Minister Alston smiled flatteringly at him, raised his hand to signal the bartender on the side to come over, took a glass of red wine, and handed it to him.
Chi Jing paused for a second, took it, and took a sip straightforwardly. Then suddenly, the whole person became so fierce that it made people scared. But his voice was as calm as usual. He said, “Minister Alston, here’s to you.”
If Chi Jing’s assistant was there at this time or Luo Du was there, they would kneel down immediately. Because such a Chi Jing was rare, and it usually appeared when the opponent was about to be destroyed.
Chi Jing’s ability to become the leader of the Chi family at such a young age was not due to his affability.
After drinking, Chi Jing put down his glass and turned to leave, regardless of Minister Alston’s reaction. He was a little puzzled as to why the other assistant hadn’t come back yet.
Just as he walked to the balcony to make a call to his assistant, a riot suddenly broke out in the banquet hall.
“Someone is in estrus!”
“Oh my God. Whose Omega is it?”
“What’s going on? Another Omega is in estrus!”
“Didn’t they wear isolation bracelets? How come their pheromones are still so strong!”
“Quick, inhibitors!”
……
The party instantly turned into chaos. Some of the younger Alphas and Omegas who had not been completely marked were brought into estrus. The isolation bracelets seemed to have failed in an instant. Everyone smelled the mixed pheromones in the air. Including those married Alphas and Omegas who have been completely marked. And they couldn’t control themselves and released pheromones into the air one after another.
The party was originally equipped with a medical team, but too many people were together aroused to estrus. It was like a little star fell into the dry, withered grass and exploded into a fire in an instant. Three or four medical personnel and a dozen or so inhibitors were simply not enough.
The alert people wanted to evacuate. But they found that all the entrances and exits of the banquet hall had been blocked from the outside.
This was a storm that was planned in advance.
Chi Jing took off the isolation bracelet in his hand and saw its status and values clearly against the light. His eyes were cold.
The isolation bracelets would not fail for any reason. Its production was subjected to strict supervision and quality inspection. It established a protective wall on the individual through several isolation elements so that people did not emit pheromones and were not disturbed by others.
There was a limit to the concentration of pheromones it could sustain, and it needed to be replaced every time it was worn for a period of time. If the pheromone that burst out instantly exceeded a certain concentration, it would quickly consume its energy efficiency. Under normal circumstances, people’s pheromone concentration would not exceed its load, and a bracelet could be used for two to three months. This was still made for unmarked AO.
For AO that had been marked and had pheromones that tend to be in a stable state, the bracelet could be used for more than half a year.
This isolation bracelet was replaced last month. When he wore it today, he took a look and saw that it still had 80% usage time, but now it was less than 50%.
If someone introduced something into the food or to the air, the concentration of the pheromone would increase dramatically, causing more than a dozen people to be in estrus at the same time and everyone’s control and immunity to decrease. Then the bracelet would quickly lose its service life, and this was probably the case now.
Many people wore an isolation bracelet for convenience and to save trouble. Some married people didn’t even wear a bracelet. After all, generally speaking, completely marked A and O pheromones were controllable, non-attractive, and non-seductive. Only a few people had taken inhibitory drugs or taken inhibitors during this time, and they had stronger isolation resistance.
Chi Jing was one of them.
After discovering that he couldn’t get out of the banquet hall, he immediately checked the optical brain. As he expected, the optical brain signal was blocked. But he was not afraid that he would not be able to contact the outside world because he was connected to Luo Du’s communication channel all year round. Once his signal was interrupted, it meant that Luo Du would receive a message immediately.
He just sighed silently. Luo Du is going to worry again.
Fortunately, he was used to double protection. At this time, the bracelet lost its effect, but the inhibitory drugs helped him temporarily maintain the pheromone balance in his body and resist the strong pheromones mixed in the air. He should be able to hold on until Luo Du arrives.
It was a pity that he was wearing a close-fitting suit and did not carry inhibitors with him to help A and O, who were in estrus. The same was true for the vast majority of people in the venue. Few people carried inhibitors with them. Even the ladies carrying handbags were just holding them as accessories. All he could do as an Omega was try his best to stay away from the centre of the riot, put away his pheromones, and hide in a corner where no one was around. But there were always people who were not discreet and kept an eye on him.
Alston was still holding a wine glass, looking very relaxed. He walked over to Chi Jing, smiled, and said, “Look at how interesting they are. A little pheromone made them lose their minds.”
Chi Jing frowned and stepped back quietly, keeping a safe distance, “It’s you.”
“Haha. I don’t know what you are talking about.”
“What do you want to do?”
Minister Alston smiled with strong greediness. He stared at Chi Jing closely, his eyes crawling around him, “Me? I want to invite you to have a wonderful night.”
Chi Jing twirled the ring on his ring finger and stated calmly, “You want a scandal to break out here and destroy them. You have united people from other galaxies. They are the ones guarding the door. You just let me drink a glass of wine. There was something wrong with the wine, and it was the source of this farce.” Chi Jing was very calm, and his eyes were full of ridicule, “You have been emitting pheromones to me. What do you want to do to me? An Omega that is completely marked will not be lured into heat by outsiders. It will only be painful. You want to use me to provoke Luo Du and want to break through the Alliance.”
“Smart little Omega, why are you married to Lou Du? If you haven’t been marked yet, I am very happy to mark you.”
Chi Jing was not irritated by his words and just said, “Your pheromones are disgusting.”
“Really, but it will smell better to you in a while.” Minister Alston finished drinking the wine in the glass and laughed triumphantly, “You are very smart. But you are wrong. I don’t want to make you suffer. I just want to spend a good night with you. I had put LSD 1Lysergic acid diethylamide, commonly known as LSD (from German Lysergsäure-diethylamid), and known colloquially as acid or lucy, is a potent psychedelic drug. Effects typically include intensified thoughts, emotions, and sensory perception.

in the wine. It will make you forget Luo Du. You will fall in love with my smell. You will think that I am your Alpha, and you will spend your heat with me. I believe you will like it.”
After speaking, he looked at the time, approached Chi Jing with confidence, released a lot of pheromones, and said coaxingly, “Good boy, are you uncomfortable now? Stop suppressing your pheromones and release them. I am your Alpha. Let me smell you.”
The venue was even more manic at this time. A male Alpha lost his mind and wanted to strip a female Omega who was in heat, intending to mark her on the spot. The female Omega didn’t know how to resist and let herself be ravaged. She knelt on the ground, exposing her large breasts. Seeing that the male Alpha was about to bite the back of her neck, a Beta girl not far away rushed up and pulled him away.
Alpha, who was passively in heat, naturally refused, and his strength exploded to an astonishing level. The female Beta couldn’t pull him away and was thrown to the ground by him.
The female Beta screamed in horror, “Save the person! Save the person!”
These AO who were manipulated by pheromones seemed to have no humanity and only knew the binding marks, like beasts.
The few Alphas and Betas who were still sane in the venue couldn’t take care of it at all. They pulled people away one after another. It was inevitable that some Omegas had been ra***, and even married Omegas who had been completely marked had been forcibly violated. Everyone was in panic and fear. They couldn’t defeat the furious Alphas, so they could only try their best to isolate the defenceless Omegas. The Alphas were unable to mark the Omegas, so they were confused and thought that the other party had snatched the person, so they fought in the circle.
On the contrary, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Although everyone wanted to protect themselves in this closed space, they still uniformly regarded the irrational Alphas as their enemies and tried their best to protect the Omegas. They gingerly surrounded them on the crowded balcony, the only place where air could circulate and the pheromones could disperse. Then they used curtains and tablecloths to wrap the Omegas with.
It was under this circumstance that Luo Du broke through the door of the banquet hall.
His guards instantly captured control of the venue and controlled the Alphas present.
Then Luo Du saw Chi Jing standing alone at the far end.
His Chi Jing had somewhat cut a sorry figure, and his originally fitting suit had become a little messy. He was supporting the table, holding a long knife in his hand, and his other hand was hanging down, with red liquid dripping down.
“Little Jing.”
Luo Du immediately rushed over to support Chi Jing.
Chi Jing took a step back and pressed the long knife in his hand against him.
Luo Du was taken aback when he looked at his cold expression and reflexively wanted to get closer, “Little Jing, wife, what’s wrong with you?”
“Don’t move.” Chi Jing’s voice had never been so cold when he spoke to him.
Luo Du’s heart trembled. He didn’t know what Chi Jing had gone through to attack someone so close to him like this, “Wife, it’s me. It’s okay. I’m here.”
Chi Jing’s knife tip trembled, as if he were persuaded.
Luo Du slowly released his pheromones, intending to soothe his Omega.
However, he didn’t expect Chi Jing to suddenly become cold and stiff. He pressed the tip of the knife against his heart again. His state was very bad. It could be seen that he was weak both physically and mentally. But he was still holding on.
He didn’t believe in anyone and resisted everyone’s pheromones, including those of his partner. Luo Du guessed something, converged his pheromone, and switched to take out the necklace he was wearing around his neck. The pendant was a very small bead, which looked very inconsistent with the image of the patriarch, Minister Lou.
He touched the warm little bead and crushed it reluctantly. The surrounding air was instantly filled with the clear and sweet smell of peach, as well as the light scent of lime and green leaves. This was the smell of Chi Jing pheromones.
At first, when they got married, Chi Jing went to the hospital to collect his own pheromone liquid, condensed it into a bead pendant, and gave it to Luo Du.
Luo Du still remembered his expression at that time. He looked as if he were very casual and cold and didn’t care about it at all. He threw the pendant to him and said lightly, “Wedding gift.”
Luo Du was stunned when he opened it and found that it was Chi Jing’s pheromones. Don’t be fooled by the fact that it was a bead just the size of the fingernail on your little finger. It was very painful to forcibly collect so much liquified pheromone from one’s body. You need to penetrate the glands with a needle to extract the surplus liquified pheromone, and then slowly wait for the new liquified pheromone to be generated, and then extract…… The process was long, and the pain was unbearable.
Luo Du still felt distressed when he thought about it. He gently put away the tip of the knife and called Chi Jing gently and patiently, “Wife, do you smell it? It’s your smell. You gave it to me when we got married. Remember?”
Chi Jing was taken aback. He smelled it carefully for a long time. This was his pheromone and could not be copied by anyone. Even if it was hallucinogenic, no one would be able to confuse him. Because his glands, which had established a strong protective mechanism, were accepting the smell.
And he had only given his liquified pheromone to one person.
Chi Jing looked at Luo Du and seemed to recognise him carefully. His eyes were blurred, but he could still feel that the man in front of him was sad and that his eyes were full of guilt, pain, and love. Only Luo Du would look at him like this. He made Luo Du blame himself. Chi Jing thought in a panic. He finally retracted the long knife, shrunk it into a small ring, put it back on his ring finger, and his whole body relaxed.
Lou Du caught him quickly, held him in his arms, pressed his injured hand, and stopped the bleeding for him.
He was about to cry. He kept kissing Chi Jing’s forehead and kept calling out for him, “Little Jing, Wife……”
After this farce created a stir in Star Y and the Alliance came to an end, a war started quietly spreading behind people’s eyes.
The Alliance’s Military, Political, and Legal Affairs Departments carried out a large-scale purge, and the Political Department used a tough stance to force the two military ministers to step aside and re-elect the ministers. Luo Du had a handful of the two old ministers of the military’s corruption and crimes. Combined with joining other galaxies to betray the Alliance, he asked the Ministry of Justice to lock them up and deal with them.
Yan Sibai, the former third Minister of the Military, still held the position of minister firmly. Although he always challenged the political ministry, he was still an upright and resolute minister.
Before the military department elected two new ministers, he single-handedly took control of the situation, traced down the source of the turmoil on the Star Y, destroyed the original military department of the Star Y, let the Alliance army directly take over, and cleared the rebels and other galaxy enemies.
The turmoil in Star Y had already made it clear that it was the horn of a certain galaxy to wage war on the Alliance. Luo Du and Yan Sibai joined forces to start this struggle together.
*
At nine o’clock in the evening, Lou Du returned home covered with frost.
The lights in the living room were on, and Chi Jing was in the living room, leaning on the sofa and falling asleep.
Lou Du instantly turned soft. The heating in the villa was sufficient. So he unceremoniously took off all his clothes and bent down to hug Chi Jing.
Just when he was about to pick him up, Chi Jing woke up. And when he opened his eyes, he saw the man’s naked body.
Chi Jing, “……”
Lou Du, “……” No, I didn’t want to do anything! Don’t look at me like that!
