Xing Hui sat alone in a VVIP booth. Around him, several friends each had an Omega in their arms, drinking, laughing and joking but he occupied the seat by himself. Within a two-meter radius on either side of him, no one was allowed to approach.
His expression was dark as he stared at his phone, his hands never idle, dialing one number, then opening a chat window to send a message, then staring at the silent screen again. As the phone remained unresponsive, his face grew increasingly grim.
“Hey, Xing Hui, what are you doing? Come drink with us.” Shen Heng stood up with a beautiful Omega in his arms, about to move over.
“That’s my Zhou You’s seat!” Xing Hui snapped, his irritation obvious. He stuffed his phone into his pocket and held out his hand. “Lend me your phone.”
Shen Heng sat back down and said to the soft, delicate Omega in his arms with a laugh, “See that? Married. The one at home keeps a tight leash on him.”
“Hurry up and give it to me,” Xing Hui said impatiently.
Shen Heng took out his phone and tossed it to him. “Password’s 123456.”
Xing Hui caught the phone, stood up, unlocked it and walked toward a quieter corner.
“Doctor Zhou, based on the description and requirements you gave, we’ve already reconstructed the person’s appearance. Take a look.” The image restoration technician, Xiao Liu, handed Zhou You a photograph as he spoke.
“Thank you.” Zhou You smiled gently as he accepted it. When his gaze fell on the face in the photo, for a brief instant, he felt as though worlds had shifted, as if separated by a lifetime.
He had almost forgotten what he originally looked like. Zhou You thought dazedly.
Xiao Liu couldn’t help his curiosity. “Doctor Zhou, the handsome guy in the photo looks a lot like you, especially the eyes. Is he a relative of yours?”
Zhou You smiled politely. “…You could say that.” He was very satisfied with Xiao Liu’s work. He took out his phone to pay, only then noticing the thirty-eight missed calls and ninety-nine messages from Xing Hui. He chose to ignore them.
“Hey, Doctor Zhou, no need to pay.” Xiao Liu smiled. “Last time when I went to your place to have my stitches removed, you didn’t charge me either. I won’t charge you this time.”
“You should take it. You’re running a business, getting paid is only right.” Zhou You maintained the same spring-breeze smile.
Xiao Liu scratched his head with a grin and finally accepted the money. “Thank you, Doctor Zhou. If you ever need anything in the future, just say the word.”
Zhou You agreed, took the photo and left.
Using Shen Heng’s phone, Xing Hui dialed Zhou You’s number. He thought to himself: if Zhou You answered, then this wasn’t over.
Very quickly, Zhou You picked up.
Xing Hui was angry but the fact that Zhou You answered still made him let out a breath.
“I called you so many times and sent so many messages. Why didn’t you reply?” The jealousy in his voice was unmistakable. “Why is it that when Shen Heng’s phone calls you, you answer immediately?” Without waiting for an answer, he jumped to a conclusion. “Are you hiding something with him behind my back?”
“….” Zhou You was silent for a few seconds before speaking. “Do you want me to have something with him?” After saying that, he hung up directly.
“Fuck!” Xing Hui cursed.
Shen Heng was sitting in the booth, hugging the Omega and laughing loudly. He happened to glance up and saw Xing Hui standing in the shadows, looking at him from a distance. For some reason, a chill ran down his spine and his smile stiffened unconsciously.
“Young Master Shen, what’s wrong?” The Omega laughed coquettishly, charming and soft.
Shen Heng steadied himself. “Nothing.”
Yet he couldn’t help glancing over again. An illusion. It had to be an illusion.
Xing Hui’s expression was terrifyingly dark. He clenched Shen Heng’s phone tightly, then after a moment, took out his own phone and kept calling Zhou You again and again.
Zhou You didn’t answer. He only sent back a message: I’m not going.
Xing Hui immediately opened the chat and replied: Why aren’t you answering my calls? Why aren’t you replying to my messages? What were you doing during that time?
Zhou You: I went to Xiao Liu’s place. If you don’t believe me, you can check.
Zhou You: I’m home now. Dad wants us to go back to the old house for dinner. If you don’t want to go, call Dad yourself and tell him.
Xing Hui: You still haven’t answered why you didn’t answer my calls or reply to my messages.
Zhou You stared at the phone screen, his brows slowly knitting together. He decided not to reply anymore.
After waiting for a while and still receiving no response, Xing Hui’s expression became even uglier.
Shen Heng watched as Xing Hui returned with a sullen face. For reasons he couldn’t quite explain, he immediately pushed away the Omega who had been clinging to him, straightened his clothes and asked with a smile, “Done with your call?”
“Why did Zhou You answer your call so quickly?” Xing Hui’s gaze looked like it could kill Shen Heng.
“Huh?” Shen Heng froze for a moment before reacting. “Holy shit! Xing Hui, don’t mess around! I have absolutely no private contact with him! I saved his number before but you deleted it for me yourself. I never saved it again after that! And I never added him as a contact either!” He hurried to explain.
“Damn it! Don’t look at me like that! I swear I absolutely did not! I would never have thoughts about a brother’s partner! Besides, he’s an Alpha and I’m an Alpha too. I have no interest in men, I like Omegas!” He pulled the Omega he had pushed away back into his arms and kissed him hard twice.
Xing Hui said nothing. After a long pause, he spoke. “Leave your phone with me. I need to check it.”
Shen Heng clenched his molars. After a long moment, he said, “Fine. Check it. Go ahead and check as much as you want.” Then he grew a bit displeased. “But if I’m innocent, how are you going to compensate me?”
“We’ll talk after I check.” Xing Hui finished speaking and walked away with a cold face.
Shen Heng was furious, cursing nonstop at Xing Hui’s retreating back.
“Hey, is that handsome friend of yours gay?” the soft Omega asked, pouting. “He thinks you’re messing around with his partner?” He pouted again. “Doesn’t even trust you. A friend like that isn’t worth keeping.”
Shen Heng looked at him. “Do you know who he is?”
“Who?”
“Xing Hui.”
“Oh!” The Omega was startled. “The only son of the Alliance Central Commander-in-Chief, Major General Xing Hui? No wonder he’s so handsome, he looks rich and powerful.” As he spoke, he hooked his arm around Shen Heng’s.
“But I only like your type, big brother.” He twisted his waist ingratiatingly and rubbed against Shen Heng.
Shen Heng removed the expensive gemstone pin from his shirt and fastened it onto the Omega’s clothes. He kissed him once. “Baby, I can’t keep you company tonight.”
“Oh, big brother, I didn’t come for this.” The Omega tried to take the gemstone off.
“Keep it. It looks good on you.” Shen Heng pecked his cheek. “Tonight’s expenses are on me.”
“Thank you, big brother.”
On the way back, Xing Hui called his bodyguards and asked where Zhou You had gone that evening. The answer matched exactly what Zhou You had said, he had only gone to Xiao Liu’s place, stayed there for a little over twenty minutes and then went home.
These so-called bodyguards not only protected Zhou You but also served to report everything to Xing Hui at all times. Any situation around Zhou You had to be reported in full detail. If anyone suspicious came into contact with Zhou You, Xing Hui would immediately dig up their background and thoroughly investigate whether they were trying to steal Zhou You away from him.
“Go check what he did during those twenty minutes at Xiao Liu’s,” Xing Hui said, then hung up. Irritated, he started taking it out on the driver. “Why are you stopping? Drive!”
“…,” the driver said weakly. “Red light.”
Xing Hui fell silent with a dark face. A few seconds later, he took out his phone and called Zhou You again. This time, the call went through.
“I’ll be home soon,” he said.
“You’re not going back to the old house?” Zhou You asked.
“We’ll talk when I get home,” Xing Hui cleared his throat. “Don’t hang up. Wait until I’m home, then hang up.”
Zhou You was speechless. “Xing Hui, aren’t you bored?”
“Not bored,” Xing Hui replied shamelessly. “How could talking to you ever be boring?”
“I’m hanging up.”
“Wife!” Xing Hui said. “If you hang up, then tonight neither of us is going back to the old house and we’re not sleeping either. I’ll fuck you until dawn.”
Zhou You’s face instantly flushed bright red. The hand holding the phone trembled slightly. He didn’t hang up and he didn’t speak.
After a few seconds, Xing Hui asked, “Did Dad say why he wants us back at the old house?”
It took Zhou You a while before he answered. “No. He just said to eat.”
“What time is it? What kind of dinner?” Xing Hui glanced at his phone. 7:39 p.m.
Only then did he remember that earlier in the afternoon, the old man had called him but he hadn’t answered.
Except when absolutely necessary, Xing Hui usually didn’t like going back to the old house to see his father. Mostly because his father would get irritated the moment he saw him. In short, for the sake of his father’s mood, Xing Hui tried his best to avoid meeting him.
But ever since he married Zhou You, his father had wanted the two of them to move back to the old house. Xing Hui was not happy about that at all. Every night, he needed to have sex with Zhou You and sometimes they would even fool around in bed during the day.
Living with elders didn’t bother him much but Zhou You was thin-skinned.
Thinking of Zhou You, Xing Hui spoke into the phone again. “At this hour, Dad should’ve finished dinner already. Have you eaten?”
Zhou You only said, “Dad said we’ll start eating whenever we arrive. He’s waiting for us.”
Xing Hui understood immediately. The old man must have something important to say; otherwise, he wouldn’t do this.
The car drove into the villa grounds and finally arrived home.
Hearing the sound of the car, Zhou You hung up. Xing Hui smiled faintly, slipped his phone into his pocket, got out of the car and went inside to look for Zhou You.
Zhou You was neatly dressed, sitting on the sofa and drinking water. Xing Hui’s gaze immediately locked onto him. He walked over, sat down close beside him and pressed against him. “Let me have a sip.” Without waiting for an answer, he took the cup and drained it in one go.
Zhou You’s expression didn’t change, his tone calm. “Let’s go. Don’t keep Dad waiting.”
“No rush.” Xing Hui grabbed Zhou You, who was about to stand up, pushed him back onto the sofa and kissed him, his hands far from idle.
Zhou You grabbed the hand sliding upward, trying to dodge in resistance but Xing Hui was bigger and stronger. His struggle didn’t accomplish much.
Unable to bear it, Zhou You resisted more fiercely and at a certain moment, he opened his mouth and bit Xing Hui hard.
He didn’t hold back at all.
Xing Hui felt the pain immediately and released him, touching his bleeding lip. “You really didn’t hold back.”
There were a butler, servants and bodyguards in the house. Zhou You was a very conservative person. His face burned red as he pushed Xing Hui away and stood up. “Don’t act crazy in front of others.”
Xing Hui looked at him, smiling with obsession. “I can’t help it. I can’t control myself when I see you.”
Zhou You kept his face tight, with an urge to pin Xing Hui’s head to the ground and grind it into the floor.
Xing Hui continued, “Did what I did make you uncomfortable?” He sat there lazily. Knowing Zhou You was thin-skinned and unhappy, he reached out to hug Zhou You’s waist, burying his face against his abdomen like he was acting spoiled. “My fault, don’t be mad. It’s just because I like you too much. Otherwise, back then I wouldn’t have been so determined to marry you and keep you by my side. Most importantly, you were the one who provoked me first.”
The warmth of Xing Hui’s palm against Zhou You’s waist made him itch slightly. Zhou You remained silent, pushed Xing Hui away and reminded him, “Don’t keep Dad waiting.”
Xing Hui said nothing. As if possessed, he forcefully pulled Zhou You into his arms, made him sit on his lap, lowered his head to Zhou You’s neck and used his teeth to peel away the blocking patch there bit by bit. His warm lips pressed against the gland, sucking hard.
As an Alpha being treated this way by another Alpha, both his body and his pheromones reacted with instinctive rejection. Zhou You tried to break free but instead his gland was bitten and Xing Hui began flooding his pheromones into it, attempting to mark him.
Alpha-on-Alpha rejection made Zhou You struggle instinctively. He drove his elbow hard into Xing Hui, finally breaking free from his control.
Covering his aching gland, Zhou You’s expression was cold as he left behind a single sentence: “You can’t mark me.” Then he turned and walked away.
Xing Hui licked his lips and glanced down at the prominent bulge between his legs. He knew he couldn’t mark Zhou You. Because they were both Alphas, even their sex life was extremely incompatible, sometimes it would turn into a fight halfway through.
But he was obsessed. Just thinking about the way Zhou You looked in bed, tears at the corners of his eyes, made his breathing grow heavy. That was why he had kept Zhou You bound to his side for five years, having sex obsessively, all to make Zhou You accustomed to his pheromones but Zhou You was too disobedient, too cold.
Sometimes he really wanted to tie Zhou You to the bed, strip him naked and penetrate him day and night, every moment without rest.
How wonderful that would be.
A sinister glint flashed through Xing Hui’s eyes. He stood up and said to the butler, “Tell my dad we’re not going back tonight.”
After that, he walked in the direction Zhou You had gone, removing his inhibitor bracelet as he did.
