After the joint entrance examination, the tense atmosphere of the senior year had subsided a bit.
The school arranged for each class to hold a small basketball game.
Most of the people who signed up for this type of game were alphas. Occasionally, there were a few omegas, all of whom were students of the school sports team.
In the camp of Grade 3 (5), there was a figure who was particularly eye-catching. He attracted many people to look at him frequently, but they only dared to stay away. No one approached.
Lou Yueren hadn’t been transferred to the school that long, but his reputation was already very big. At this time, just standing there was enough deterrence.
The students in Grade 3 (5) usually didn’t dare to provoke him. However, at this time, they were more or less happy to have such a fierce general.
Someone glanced at the time on his watch and looked around in confusion. “Where is Chi Ting?”
The girl next to him answered, “He didn’t sign up this time.”
“Huh?” The boy looked very confused. “Why? He is so good at basketball. Hasn’t he never missed this type of game?”
The girl asked, “I don’t know. I haven’t seen him.”
Lou Yueren was standing not far away. His expression, which had been relaxed, fell into his ears, and he paused for a moment.
The whistle sounded, indicating that the game was about to start. This attracted everyone’s attention.
Thanks to the presence of Lou Yueren on the court, the basketball game of Grade 3(5) won beautifully.
Next was the game of other classes. Lou Yueren left the court covered in sweat.
A classmate came up to congratulate him with an excited face. After meeting Lou Yueren’s eyes, he subconsciously froze. Lou Yueren walked over and gently clapped the hand raised in the air. Then he left in a daze with his coat on.
He walked along the path and didn’t go directly to the cafeteria to buy water. Instead, he turned a corner very naturally.
No one had seen Chi Ting today?
This thought had been lingering in his mind for a long time.
Two students came in front of him. Lou Yueren didn’t pay attention to them at first. This was until they passed by and a very faint smell fell into his nose.
The smell flashed by. He suddenly stopped and put his hand on the other person’s shoulder. “Wait a minute.”
The student who was suddenly called was stunned for a moment. He saw that it was Lou Yueren, and his body stiffened. “Excuse me, is there anything I can do for you?”
Lou Yueren lowered his eyes to look at the expressions of the two people. He didn’t notice anything unusual. Then after thinking for a while, he asked, “Where did you come from?”
The student felt a bit confused by this question, but he still pointed in the right direction. “We… just came down from upstairs.”
“Which floor?”
The student replied, “The third floor…”
Lou Yueren gently patted his shoulder and smoothed out the wrinkles. “Thank you.”
“Huh?”
Lou Yueren ignored him again. In the blink of an eye, he walked in the direction of the stairs.
This was an independent teaching building specially arranged by the school for the final sprint in the senior year. At this time, basically everyone was watching the games of various classes on the basketball court. There weren’t many people in the quiet classroom.
There were a few spare classrooms on the third floor, which was usually used to pile up clutter.
If he hadn’t caught such a subtle scent, Lou Yueren probably wouldn’t have thought of coming here to look for someone.
The idea in his mind became clearer and clearer. This made Lou Yueren speed up his pace.
Finally, he vaguely caught a smell outside a classroom with closed doors and windows.
The classroom where miscellaneous things were placed was completely blocked on all sides, but the faint smell of pheromones still flowed out of the gap in the door.
This was a smell that Lou Yueren was once very familiar with.
He frowned and knocked on the door.
There was no response for a long time.
Lou Yueren could only increase his intensity. “Chi Ting, are you in there? Chi Ting?”
Finally, he faintly heard movement inside.
Soon, a voice came faintly, “…Lou Yueren?”
“It’s me.” Lou Yueren finally sighed with relief when he heard the reply. He wanted to make a joke, but he didn’t say much after hearing the obviously low and hoarse voice. “Are you okay?”
At this time, some of the previous speculations had basically been confirmed.
“I’m not very good.” Based on the movement he heard, it seemed that someone was leaning gently on the other side of the door, and his breathing wasn’t stable. “I didn’t expect for my estrus period to come early this time… Normally, it should take at least another month. The most troublesome situation now is… Huh, the injected inhibitor doesn’t seem to have much effect.”
Lou Yueren obviously hadn’t expected Chi Ting to answer in such a straightforward manner.
Then after hearing the rest of the words, he was slightly stunned and thought of a possibility.
The advancement or postponement of the estrus period of an omega was often due to external forces.
During this period of time, Chi Ting was either at home or at school. The only external force he could come into contact with was probably the episode in the school alley before.
So, was he affected by the pheromones of an alpha?
Was it due to those gangsters or him?
The color in Lou Yueren’s eyes flickered for a moment. He temporarily suppressed all the speculation, and frowned slightly. “What should be done when the inhibitor is ineffective? Should I go to the infirmary to call a teacher?”
“It is no use calling, unless… you call the emergency number and take me to the hospital.” Chi Ting was still able to joke at this time. If it wasn’t for his shortness of breath, he would sound like he was smiling faintly. “But if it needs to reach this level, I am basically a critically ill patient with a pheromone disorder… In other words, I need to be put on special equipment.”
“From what you are saying, you seem to be in good spirits.” Although he said this, Lou Yueren’s expression on the other side of the door wasn’t that indifferent.
He stared at the tightly closed door and asked, “What are you going to do now? You can’t just stay like this, right?”
“It is… the only way.” Chi Ting’s voice was a bit tired. “Just now, I injected the inhibitor for the second time. If it still doesn’t work… I might consider another shot. There are many people in the school right now. If I can suppress it a bit, I’ll see if I can… sneak out after school when there are fewer people.”
“So if I hadn’t come, this would be the ‘perfect plan’ you prepared before?” Lou Yueren smiled and patted the door with his hand, saying loudly, “Open the door and let me in.”
There was a subtle silence for a moment. Soon, Chi Ting’s voice rang out as if to confirm it. “Do you know what you are saying?”
“I’ve always known it,” Lou Yueren said and patted the door again. “Injecting too many inhibitors will cause great harm to the body. You should know the knowledge of physiology class better than me, study god.”
Chi Ting had been called this many times before, but this time, he heard the strong sarcasm in it.
Even without opening the door, he could roughly guess the expression on this person’s face. The unbearable feeling of discomfort all over his body made him laugh out loud. “I can’t tell. You didn’t sleep in physiology class?”
“Is that the point?” Lou Yueren was completely amused by such an attitude. “You still have the energy to talk so much nonsense with me. Open the door first.”
No matter how the inhibitor was used in emergencies, it was still a medical agent used for temporary suppression. In comparison, the alpha pheromone with a high matching degree had always been the most effective soothing choice.
This was basic common sense, and the two people at the scene were naturally very clear about it.
After a while, Chi Ting’s voice was finally heard. “That is what you said… don’t regret it.”
Lou Yueren wanted to say something, but he saw that the tightly closed classroom door finally opened a crack.
Before he could recover from the overwhelming pheromone smell, he was pulled straight in with force.
In the blink of an eye, the classroom door was tightly closed again.
What followed was the overwhelming and strong pheromone smell of an omega that almost instantly defeated his rationality.
Lou Yueren’s breathing became heavy in an instant.
He didn’t expect that Chi Ting’s pheromones in the classroom separated by a door would be so strong.
He didn’t need to control it at all. His own alpha pheromones seemed to be guided and overflowed layer by layer.
Thanks to the action of pulling and pushing, Lou Yueren was already pressed against the door of the classroom.
The person who was leaning against him sniffed his scent as if somewhat attached to it. His voice was a bit lower than before. “In fact, I wanted to tell you this before. Brother Ren… your pheromone smells really good.”
Brother Ren.
Lou Yueren was being overwhelmed by the overly strong pheromones at this moment. After suddenly hearing this sentence, he felt his breathing inexplicably become stagnant for a moment.
He could feel the tense state of the person who was clinging to him. The pheromone with a faint smell of warm sunshine was enough to break all the rational defenses in an instant…
The pheromones belonging to an alpha poured out, no matter whether it was intentional or not. In just a moment, it had completely wrapped Chi Ting in it.
It must be admitted that the pheromones of an alpha were indeed enough to play a soothing role during an omega’s estrus period.
The strong discomfort brought by the two inhibitors disappeared in an instant during this process. There was an instinctive induction that made Chi Ting subconsciously want to get closer to this person.
Different from his mild pheromone smell, Lou Yueren’s smell was like cool moonlight. But even though it was such a cold smell, it made people fall in love with it and miss it.
The unbearable burning sensation all over his body was relieved, as if he had been redeemed.
At this moment, Chi Ting could feel Lou Yueren’s obviously tense breathing. His heaving chest seemed to be trying very hard to restrain something.
The more this happened, the easier it was to fall for the person.
It might be due to the rebound after injecting too many inhibitors, or it might be because this estrus period was too turbulent. Once there was a hint of warmth, he felt an instinctive need that couldn’t be curbed at all.
It wasn’t enough.
He wanted more of Lou Yueren’s smell.
“Since you dare to come in like this, then…” Chi Ting leaned forward slightly. The close distance allowed the two of them to kiss intimately at any time. “Do you dare to make me?”
Lou Yueren’s eyes were already extremely deep. Every breath that touched his skin seemed like a test on the verge of the limit.
He looked steadily at the eyes of the man in front of him, and the ending tone was clearly trembling slightly. “For omegas, the meaning of the mark should be…”
“Yes, I know.” Chi Ting’s breathing was obviously unstable. The stage of estrus made him look like he didn’t have his usual sense. “All the contents of the physiology class… I remember them very clearly.”
Lou Yueren’s eyes swept over Chi Ting’s face as if he wanted to judge through the subtle changes whether such a request came from the heart or if it was just because he was addicted to the instinct during the estrus period.
For alphas, marking an omega might not be a particularly big deal. However, for omegas, it would have a huge impact in the future, even if it was only a temporary mark.
He was willing to mark.
Very willing.
He just didn’t want it to be on such an occasion.
If it was just due to Chi Ting’s momentary impulse, he didn’t want to let this person be tied to him.
What if Chi Ting regretted it later…”
“I know what I am saying very clearly.” Chi Ting obviously saw Lou Yueren’s thoughts. A hint of an ambiguous smile appeared in his misty eyes. “Do you look down on me so much that you think my basic judgment will be affected by the estrus period? Or do you now want to, Brother Ren.”
The two of them looked at each other.
The pheromones of the two people had been mixed together unknowingly.
It wasn’t just Chi Ting. Lou Yueren also felt that he was about to be driven crazy.
The high matching degree was enough to make such pheromones collide and defeat all the rationality in his mind.
“I am willing… Chi Ting, I like you.”
The moment such a sentence came out, Lou Yueren grabbed Chi Ting’s wrist and pulled this person tightly into his arms. During the entanglement, the intermittent breathing became fragmented. “…I like you very very much.”
It was just that he didn’t know.
Chi Ting could feel Lou Yueren’s hands gradually stroking his gland.
The clear touch spread out coldly. At this moment, he trembled slightly with sensitivity.
The reaction was soon noticed by Lou Yueren. He licked his teeth, leaned over, and gently bit the weakest part of the neck that belonged to an omega.
The moment the pheromone was injected, it brought a strong sense of fusion.
Chi Ting’s jaw subconsciously tilted up a bit, revealing his smooth and s*xy neck.
At this moment, his eyes seemed to be shrouded by a clear white light, blurring all his surrounding vision. He could feel a clear fusion, which intersected with the rampant heat in his body bit by bit.
The feeling of exhaustion that this caused made him slowly fall down. Then he was held steadily in Lou Yueren’s arms.
The unstable breaths of the two people intertwined, and they kissed each other intimately.
Chi Ting’s fingers subconsciously curled up with a feeling of tension. In the posture of an embrace, they were deeply embedded in Lou Yueren’s back.
The brief pain didn’t attract Lou Yueren’s attention. At this time, his alpha instincts made him want to completely encircle the person in his arms.
Brand this person with his scent, mark him so that he belonged to Lou Yueren forever.
This was a strong possessiveness he never had before.
He could feel Chi Ting’s body fall, so he lifted it up a bit more.
The continuous and long marking process left only the breaths of the two of them in the entire sealed classroom.
The gentle, warm sun and the cool moonlight, which were originally very abrupt and contrasting, were combined so perfectly and naturally.
This lasted until they almost lost their ability to think. Then the two of them seemed to break out of this state.
Chi Ting’s vision finally recovered.
In the silence, he and Lou Yueren stared into each other’s eyes.
After a long time, his Adam’s apple moved again.
The emotions of the two people obviously hadn’t calmed down. Their gazes gradually lowered and fell on each other’s lips bit by bit.
The distance was too close. Due to the posture of slightly lowering the neck, the tip of Chi Ting’s nose gently brushed against the side of the other person’s face. Then he kissed this person like he was tasting tea.
The afterglow of the mark was full of the taste of confusion and passion. Lou Yueren obviously hadn’t expected Chi Ting to be so straightforward. As the touch enveloped him, he finally couldn’t control himself any longer.
The lingering kiss seemed more intense and straightforward than before.
There were footsteps passing by outside the door.
No one thought that there were two affectionate figures in a corner separated by the door.
It wasn’t known how much time passed, but the bell for the end of school kept ringing.
Lou Yueren finally slowly let go of this person.
He glanced at the confused look of the man in front of him and spoke in a slightly hoarse voice, “Are you feeling better now?”
“Yes,” Chi Ting replied in a low voice. The afterglow of the mar was still there, but it was clearly relief after satisfaction compared to the feeling of being forced to endure due to the inhibitor being ineffective.
“That’s good.” Lou Yueren said this, but he still had no intention of getting up. He noticed Chi Ting’s gaze and said in a hoarse voice, “I’ll accompany you. Once most people have left after school, I’ll take you home.”
Soon, Chi Ting responded in a low voice again, “Yes.”
This reaction finally aroused Lou Yueren’s curiosity.
He looked at the omega, who was still leaning in his arms and had taken on his scent. His eyes shook, and he finally asked what was in his heart, “So, are we in that kind of relationship now?”
“That kind?”
Chi Ting’s tone was already a bit lazy. He was dazed for a little bit before understanding what Lou Yueren was talking about.
He didn’t answer directly and thought about it for a while. Then he said, “Let’s talk about this in two days.”
This answer made Lou Yueren’s eyes darkened. “…Study god, are you going to throw me away after using me?”
Chi Ting felt the oppression of the surrounding pheromones for a moment, and gently rubbed Lou Yueren’s hair. “No, I am just giving you time to think about it.’
“Leaving time for me?”
Chi Ting looked at him. “An alpha who had just marked someone will be affected by instincts, just you like now, um, want to take me for yourself. This type of emotion will probably take a few days to digest. I think that when the time comes, you need to consider whether you want to be responsible for me or not.”
Lou Yueren stared at Chi Ting steadily without saying anything. After a while, the corners of his lips curled up slightly. “Before, you asked me if I looked down on you too much. Now it seems that you are the one who really looks down on me, right?”
“Hmm?”
The next second, Chi Ting’s mouth was blocked by another kiss.
The kiss was different from the previous one. In comparison, it was more like a certain emotional confirmation or simple catharsis.
The breathing that had just calmed down soon became completely disordered again.
The pheromones belonging to an alpha dominated Chi Ting, like retaliatory punishment for what he had just said.
Lou Yueren’s passionate words were heard in his ears. “It won’t take a few days. I can give you a clear answer now… I will be responsible for you for the rest of my life.”
A melodious ringtone came from far away.
In the classroom with a charming atmosphere, Chi Ting slowly reached out and hugged the person in front of him. “Okay, I heard you, my boyfriend.”
The author has something to say: Captain Chi and Brother Ren must be together in every world~!
