With such a majestic presence lying right behind him, Fu Yue figured that he would have another sleepless night. Yet, to his surprise, he was knocked out cold not long after his head touched the pillow.
Amidst his muddlehead state, he even thought how nice it would be if there were an air freshener spray that smelt like Wei Chen's cool pheromones.
Not once did it cross his mind that it was dangerous to have a Dominant Alpha in their susceptible period sleeping right behind him on the same bed.
Fortunately, Fu Zhen had no knowledge about this matter. Otherwise, he would have taught him a lesson on behalf of their parents.
No. In fact, he would first beat himself for sending his own Didi right into a wolf's mouth!
What an upright Alpha? Pei, as it turns out, all Alpha are the same!
To be honest, even Wei Chen himself was amazed at Fu Yue's trust in him.
As much as he felt glad to be trusted, he was also a bit speechless.
How was it possible to be so naive after growing up with Fu Zheng as his father and Fu Zhen as his big brother?
Had Fu Yue heard this question, he would have laughed and joked about it.
It is possible because he indeed didn't grow up with them as his father and big brother.
By the time morning light pierced his eyelids arousing Fu Yue from his deep sleep, Wei Chen was nowhere to be seen.
Fu Yue stared blankly at the empty bed. He couldn't believe that Wei Chen left him alone so easily just like this.
Cough. It was not that he was expecting something more but from what he saw on the internet, he did prepare himself for the worst.
When he was researching Wei Chen's condition online he happened to stumble upon a group of Omegas voicing their experiences.
Got to admit. After reading that he became a bit nervous.
356: Me and my husband had an 80% match rate, and omg, during his rut, I almost thought that I wouldn't live to see the sunlight! I am stuck in the bedroom for three whole days!
765: Alphas in susceptible periods have more mood swings than a pregnant person! They became unreasonable and extremely possessive of their Omegas. I bet they would carry their Omegas in their pockets if they could!
766: Agreed. Mine is inseparable like a big dog with separation anxiety! I had no choice but to ask for a leave from work!
789: Words of advice. Stock up on food and drink and hope for the best /thumb up/
Going through the comment section, the earthling Fu Yue was mortified.
Going at it for three whole days? Isn't it a bit too exaggerated? And at 80%? What about him who scored 100%??? Wouldn't he just die on the bed if this were to be true?
Holding hands is okay. Hugging is also okay. Kissing… Well, they already did it twice anyway, what's the difference between a few more? If these were still not enough, then, then he can go to second base! That's it!
And you tell him that after all of that mental preparation, he got abandoned like an unfavoured concubine just like this???
Shame washed over like a tide, Fu Yue pulled up the cover above his head and rolled all the way to the edge of the bed. After kicking the blanket to release the embarrassment for quite some time, he lay motionless like a dead fish.
After what seemed to be an eternity, he released a helpless sigh.
It is no use denying it now.
He is tempted by Wei Chen.
As someone with zero dating experience, he used to wonder how anyone ever feels good tasting another person's saliva while locking lips with each other.
Now he knows.
The kiss tastes amazing, an out-of-the-world experience.
That being said, it meant that he was not opposed to the idea of going out with Wei Chen, a guy despite his claim of being a straight male.
At the thought of this, Fu Yue couldn't help but be reminded of his first day at Tian Meng's base and felt secondhand embarrassment.
There is no one here that is close to my ideal.
Hah, as it turns out there is one right next door!
I prefer women.
Yeah, my foot. You are as straight as a mosquito coil!
Fu Yue was so done with his past self that he couldn't help but mock himself out loud, "I prefer women!"
"That's unfortunate then.''
Fu Yue, "...!"
Hearing this familiar deep voice, Fu Yue's heart took a deep dive over the cliff. His heart seemed to stop beating for a split second there.
Not wanting to accept the reality of Wei Chen standing there overheard what he had just said, he simply shut his eyes and prayed vehemently for this voice to be nothing but a mere product of his imagination.
In the meantime, seeing that Fu Yue refused to acknowledge his presence, Wei Chen walked over and sat down on the bed beside him. The bed sank due to his weight and the giant cocoon helplessly slid in his direction to touch his thigh.
Fu Yue's body stiffened. Despite the multiple layers of the fabric, he still could tell that he had bumped into Wei Chen's thigh. Just as he was pondering whether he should scoot away or not, he suddenly heard the other party speak in an unhurried tone.
"Hmm. I do recall that your preference is someone cute and warm." Allowing a small pause, Wei Chen added in a soft whisper, "This is not good… I am often told that I am a difficult and cold person."
"No, no, no! You are perfect the way you are!"
Even though Wei Chen spoke as if he was talking about the weather, Fu Yue couldn't help but shiver. He quickly voiced his disapproval to save his own skin.
However, in his haste, he completely forgot that he was hovering at the edge of the bed. With a sudden rise of his body, he ended up sliding off the bed.
Knowing that he was about to hit the floor, Fu Yue instinctively closed his eyes bracing himself for the incoming pain.
However, the expected pain did not arrive because the person next to him caught him in time.
Knowing that he was safe, he wiggled his head out of the blanket and praised his captain's quick reaction with a big smile, ''As expected! You are the fastest man alive!''
Wei Chen, whose heart had just settled back into its original position, paused after hearing this compliment.
With a slight arch of his eyebrow, he said with a slight smile, ''How do you know that I am fast?''
Fu Yue's smile froze. As a fellow man, he instantly understood the other person's joke which made him look at his supposedly upright Captain in horror.
They were right! All Alphas in their susceptible period think with their lower body.
He speechlessly said, ''Captain, can you get your head out of the gutter, please?''
To his response, Wei Chen put his hand under Fu Yue's knees and effortlessly lifted him off the bed.
After settling the person on his lap, Wei Chen gave him a polite smile, his eyes twinkling with mirth, ''Forgive me. It hard to do so when it comes you.''
Fu Yue, "..."
… Did he just casually reveal the fact that he has dirty thoughts about him?
Despite this seeming to be the case, Fu Yue was surprisingly not offended or creeped out by this notion.
At the thought of this, he suddenly had a realization.
Wait.
… Am I into him more than I actually think?
"Sorry, I shouldn't have said those words."
Wei Chen's sudden apology pulled Fu Yue back to reality. He let out a confusing 'Ah' before figuring out what the other party was referring to. He gave a light chuckle, ''Hey! I am a big man I can take the joke!"'
Unfortunately, his words didn't have the intended effect. Wei Chen's expression remained apologetic, "You don't have to be polite."
Fu Yue, who didn't toss out those words just to be polite, felt his head hurt. In the end, he let out a sigh, "You know what… never mind. Let me down. I have to use the bathroom."
Hearing his tired tone, Wei Chen was further convinced that Fu Yue was indeed offended by his previous remark.
He obediently let him go and watched as Fu Yue unwrapped himself from the blanket before walking to the bathroom and closing the door.
Time passed slowly and Wei Chen was unsure whether he should go or stay. Ultimately, he decided to wait for Fu Yue to come back so that he could apologize one more time.
It didn't take long before Fu Yue emerged from the bathroom in a tidy state.
"Good. You are still here." Fu Yue said in a relieved voice before marching in Wei Chen's direction.
Arriving in front of Wei Chen, Fu Yue gestured for the other person to lean over.
Despite not knowing what Fu Yue was trying to do, Wei Chen leaned forward.
Their faces were brought closer and their eyes were almost at the same level. In the next second, Fu Yue didn't waste any time and immediately leaned in for a quick kiss.
Wei Chen's expression froze. With his eyes slightly widened, he fixed his gaze on Fu Yue's face in disbelief.
Fu Yue admired Wei Chen's stunned face for a bit before taking a step back and slightly cleared his throat, "1 month. If it doesn't work, we will forget this ever happened and resume being colleagues with no hard feelings. Are you in?"
Happiness came too fast and Wei Chen didn't know how to react.
Seeing that Wei Chen didn't show any reaction to his words, Fu Yue pointed at himself and then at the former before adding in a clear voice to deliver his intention, "Me, you dating for 1 month, okay?"
***
Pulling out the chair, Fu Yue asked Yang Yuxuan in surprise, ''Why are you up so early today?''
After putting down this question, Fu Yue didn't know whether he read him wrongly or not but Yang Yuxuan gave him a weird look.
Yan Yuxuan snorted, ''For your information, it is already noon.''
Fu Yue was stunned upon hearing this. Taking out his phone to check the time, he was shocked to find out that Yang Yuxuan indeed didn't lie to him. His face paled at this information.
Upon seeing his mid-laner's ghastly face, Yang Yuxuan smilingly added another sentence, ''Don't worry, you are not the only one who is unusually late today.''
Hearing his voice full of gloating, Fu Yue flinched as if his tail had just been stepped on.
The only people who are up early in this place are him and Wei Chen…
So imagine when these two early birds happened to get up late on the same day and coincidentally, the Alpha was also in a susceptible period too.
Fu Yue sucked in a deep breath. He glanced at Yang Yuxuan out of the corner of his eyes and as expected, the other party looked at him with a meaningful smile.
Resting his chin on top of his linking hands, Yang Yuxuan's eyes bent into two crescents, ''Don't worry. Everyone will understand.''
Fu Yue gave a strained smile, ''It is not what you are think–''
However, before he could even finish his sentence, a loud shriek was suddenly heard coming from the doorway.
''Ahhhhhhh!''
Both Fu Yue and Yang Yuxuan turned their heads in surprise only to see Li Haoran pinch his nose with his right hand as if his life depended on it while hiding behind a wall like he was trying to protect himself from a wild beast.
Seeing his ADC being so ridiculous, Yang Yuxuan looked at him in disgust, ''Why are you screeching like a pig being slaughtered for the new year?!''
To his reply, Li Haoran tremblingly pointed his index finger at Fu Yue. He shouted, ''It can't be helped! Si-ge reeks of pheromones! Do you know how scary his Alpha's pheromones are?!''
