Chapter 6 Fu Sheng’s biological instinct still chose the beta!
“…He Yuan.”
Fu Sheng stared at He Yuan, his gaze as if wanting to tear him apart immediately. However, the dose of the anaesthesic gas was too high, and even the strongest body couldn’t resist for more than a few seconds. He quickly fell to the ground, still glaring at He Yuan with intense hatred. He resembled a wounded beast, filled with resentment towards his partner who had abandoned him.
He Yuan’s hand, which had been retracted, trembled slightly. His eyes were blank, and he couldn’t even understand his own emotions in that instant. Confusion, coldness, sadness, pain—various complex emotions mixed together like spilled paint, making it difficult to distinguish one from another.
Right now, all he wanted was to leave, to get away from Fu Sheng, the Fu family, away from the entanglements between AOs. He wanted to escape to a safe place, lick his wounds, and slowly reveal the secrets in his heart.
Fu Jiaqi stood beside him and said, “He Yuan, I’m going to open the door.”
He Yuan remained silent.
Fu Jiaqi looked at him with some compassion, but still opened the door. It was more important to ensure the stability of Fu Sheng’s pheromones than to sympathise with the beta who had to give up his partner.
“He Beijia, you can go in.”
He Beijia clenched his fists excitedly and took two steps forward. Suddenly, at the wide-open door, he turned around and sincerely thanked He Yuan, “Thank you, He Yuan. I will definitely make it up to you, within my abilities. I will definitely make it up to you.”
He Yuan looked at him coldly, his gaze passing through him to the space behind the door, where he didn’t find Fu Sheng’s figure. After a moment of daze, he decisively turned around. He Beijia saw this and revealed a satisfied smile, but his smile quickly froze. An extremely chilling fear rushed over him, paralysing him to the point where he couldn’t even scream, only trembling stiffly in place.
Fu Jiaqi looked at him in astonishment. “Brother—?”
He Yuan, startled, stopped in his tracks before he could turn around. Under the overwhelmingly terrifying pheromones, he couldn’t help but tremble, his heart pounding like a drum. The cacophony of sounds in the world faded away at that moment, leaving only a single overpowering pheromone.
“He Yuan.”
Gulp—He Yuan nervously swallowed saliva, breathing rapidly. His inner voice kept denying it, thinking it was impossible, absolutely impossible! He mechanically twisted his neck, as if he could hear the sound of his neck turning, but in reality, he only turned it slightly. His peripheral vision caught sight of Fu Sheng, who was standing right behind him.
Fu Sheng’s face twisted with anger, his expression dark and fierce. His pupils were as deep as ink, and his pheromones carried a strong scent of bloodlust and anger, enveloping He Yuan. He bared his teeth and claws, looking at He Yuan with a cold, calculating gaze, like a ferocious beast preparing to pounce on its prey, considering which part of the flesh to tear into for maximum enjoyment.
He Yuan’s pupils contracted, and he could hardly catch his breath. “Fu… Fu Sheng…” He took a deep breath.
Fu Sheng looked at him with a dark expression, devoid of any humanity. It seemed that his entire being was dominated by his primal instincts. It had been publicly acknowledged by biologists that, to some extent, pheromones were one of the directions of human evolution. They improved human physicality and promoted human reproduction, but at the same time, they turned humans into beasts controlled by desires for mating and conquest.

To some extent, alphas and omegas in the midst of their estr*s were akin to mindless animals. In their genetic code, there was a segment that resembled atavism.
Fear began to well up within He Yuan, driven by his physiology and conditioned reflexes. He feared the alpha in front of him, and his body and will had to submit obediently under the pressure of this cruel nature. His voice trembled as he called out, “Fu Sheng, Fu Sheng?”
Fu Jiaqi attempted to get closer. “Brother…” He tried to overcome the hierarchical suppression and bring back Fu Sheng’s rationality. “Brother, He Beijia is here. You… You’ve mistaken the person.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Sheng kicked him away with a fierce blow, sending him crashing into the wall and knocking him unconscious. As alphas, their bodies were quite resilient, and he quickly regained consciousness, but he was rendered immobile by the even more hostile pheromones.
Fu Jiaqi looked at Fu Sheng in shock, his eyes meeting those cold, fierce eyes. He suddenly remembered that an alpha in the midst of estr*s not only exhibited nest-building behaviour, confining the desired mate within their territory, but also regarded any intruding alpha, beta, or even vulnerable omega as enemies competing for a mate. They would do their utmost to kill them.
Fu Sheng… He really might kill him!
Fu Jiaqi dared not speak another word.
Fortunately, for the current Fu Sheng, bringing his mate back to the den was evidently more important. After determining that Fu Jiaqi, as a rival, posed no threat, he didn’t want to exert any more effort.
Fu Sheng disdainfully snorted and swung his arm over He Yuan’s shoulder, grabbing his throat. In a few sniffs at his neck, he narrowed his eyes, revealing an intimate and invasive expression. The overwhelming pheromones enveloped He Yuan like a cocoon, forcefully manipulating his actions. Afterward, he dragged him into the sealed room.
Seeing He Beijia, who was crawling on the ground, trembling as if offering himself as a sacrifice, Fu Sheng paused. His expression seemed strange, as if he was influenced by the highly compatible pheromones, causing him to hesitate.
He Beijia, filled with joy, stammered, “Fu… Fu Sheng… I am… I am yours…”
Fu Sheng looked at him with an unclear expression, while He Yuan forced himself to quickly adapt to Fu Sheng’s domineering pheromones. Fortunately, they had spent nearly six years together, and his body had already become receptive to Fu Sheng’s pheromones. So, while Fu Sheng hesitated, He Yuan struggled and attempted to break free.
This completely enraged Fu Sheng. He let out a roar and viciously bit down on He Yuan’s nape, his sharp canines piercing the gland and injecting his own pheromones. He Yuan let out a low groan, the pain causing his limbs to curl up slightly. The taste of forcibly exposing the gland was extremely unpleasant, but even more painful was the influx of the overpowering, bloody pheromones, overpowering and entangling the huddled, fresh peppermint pheromones.
He Yuan’s hand trembled for a moment, and the blood on the back of his neck was licked clean by Fu Sheng. The light in his eyes, which had been trying to escape, gradually dimmed until it lost consciousness.
Seeing that He Yuan had finally submitted, Fu Sheng carried him inside, and with a loud bang, the metal door closed. He Beijia and Fu Jiaqi, who were left outside, couldn’t believe what they were witnessing.
Shaking his head, He Beijia thought it was impossible, it shouldn’t be… Fu Sheng was an alpha, an S-rank alpha! The stronger the alpha, the more they desired pheromones highly compatible with their own during their estr*s. It was impossible for an alpha to refuse the pheromones of an Omega!
Fu Sheng should have chosen him, shouldn’t he?
“How could it be… a beta?”
“Fu Sheng!” Fu Jiaqi suddenly realised and shouted into the communication device, “Brother! He Yuan can’t handle it! He’s going to die! He Yuan is going to die!” Read this novel at NovelPing for the best experience.
In the next moment, the communication device exploded, sparking and emitting flames. Obviously, Fu Sheng inside the confinement room had impatiently destroyed the only communication device that connected to the outside world. He also locked the door from the inside, so unless he personally opened it, no one inside could get out, and no one outside could enter.
Fu Jiaqi was filled with horror. “He’s gone mad!”
Fu Sheng had lost his sanity. Even for an Omega with a highly compatible pheromone, fully mature and in estr*s, it would be challenging, let alone He Yuan, who was just a beta!
Even if he didn’t die, he would be stripped of his skin!
Fu Jiaqi quickly turned around and ran downstairs to find Grandfather Fu. Grandmother Fu, upon hearing the news, fell back into her seat, shaking her head with a sigh. “Both of them will be ruined.”
As soon as Mother Fu entered the house, she turned pale with fright. The possibility of an alpha’s beta dying without relief, and the alpha unable to find release, would lead to a pheromone imbalance. Father Fu looked at the backbone of the family, Grandfather Fu .
“Once the confinement room is closed, it’s not easy to open it by force. Find a doctor and be prepared to save them at any time.”
“Father, are we just going to abandon Fu Sheng like this?”
“What else can we do? Fu Sheng chose a beta on his own!”
Physiology, or rather, the biological instinct engraved in the genetic code, compelled an alpha in their estr*s to actively seek out an Omega. They had already offered an Omega themselves, but Fu Sheng’s biological instinct still chose the beta!
“It was his own choice. He must bear the consequences.”
Upon hearing these words, Fu Sheng’s mother couldn’t help but sob, looking worriedly in the direction of the confinement room.
