Chapter 6 New Plan

Ji Xia drowsily sat up, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and stared at the empty office chair across from him. A question mark slowly popped up in his head. "Where's the person?"

His slow head snapped twice, and he looked at the alarm clock on the table. "13:27" "13:28" "13:29"

Ji Xia's eyes suddenly widened. Did he travel through time and space? How...how come it was suddenly past one o'clock.

He wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and refused to admit that he had fallen asleep. He was not a pig. How could he fall asleep again at noon if he slept so late in the morning?

He was thinking about looking for Fu Yuan, but when he moved, he felt a piercing pain in his right foot.

Ji Xia's little face was wrinkled into a bun. He lifted up his trouser leg and took a look. His right ankle was swollen like a bun.

He carefully bent his foot and placed it on the back of the chair. He dipped his index finger in saliva and slowly applied it to the swollen ankle. This was Ji Xia's own saliva therapy. When he was a child, he would always feel a burning pain after being beaten. He would just apply a little saliva and it would heal quickly.

After applying the medicine, Ji Xia rubbed it and felt it was not so painful anymore, so he went downstairs to find someone.

He didn't find Fu Yuan, but met Butler Xu, who took him to the restaurant for dinner.

Looking at the sumptuous dishes on the table, Ji Xia forcefully turned his gaze away. He wanted to get rid of the terrible impression that he was useless except for eating and sleeping.

He said, "Grandpa Xu, I'm not really hungry. Just a little bit will do."

Butler Xu said, "Master Ji, please feel free to do as you please. We will dispose of the leftover food."

Ji Xia asked: "How to deal with it?"

Butler Xu: "Pour it out and feed it to the pigs."

Jixia's big cat-like eyes widened as she looked at the prawns, steamed fish, and spare ribs on the table... She thought to herself, Mr. Fu's pigs are so lucky.

He had a long inner struggle between his conscience and his desires, but ultimately his appetite overcame his reason, and he devoured everything in sight until he was full.

Only leftovers were left on the table. Ji Xia burped, feeling a little guilty. He silently apologized to Brother Pig, whom he had never met, and promised to save some more food for dinner.

Ji Xia stood up from the dining table. The pain in his feet made him stop in his tracks. It took him a while to recover.

Butler Xu, who was directing Auntie to clean up, noticed his abnormality and asked, "Master Ji, what's wrong?"

Ji Xia waved her hand and said, "Nothing."

Butler Xu asked, "Is your foot injured? Let me take a look."

Faced with the elders' concern, Ji Xia couldn't refuse. He said, "I just twisted it a little, it's nothing serious. It doesn't hurt at all. Please don't look at it."

But Butler Xu had already squatted down and lifted up his trouser legs.

Ji Xia immediately said, "I'm not in pain, really."

Butler Xu's smile faded a little, and he said, "Master Ji, lying is not a good habit."

Ji Xia pursed her lips and said, "Don't tell Mr. Fu."

Butler Xu didn't say yes or no, but helped Ji Xia sit on the sofa. A moment later, a young man in a sports suit appeared in the living room.

Butler Xu introduced the other person's identity as Fu Yuan's family doctor.

Chen Xi placed the medicine box in his hand on the sofa table, and looked up and down at the Omega sitting on the sofa with an unconcealed scrutinizing and curious gaze.

He is a skinny boy with a pair of big, clear eyes.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, and the scrutiny and curiosity in his eyes turned into doubt.

He waved and said hello. "My name is Chen Xi. You can call me Doctor Chen, or just call me by my first name, or even Ah Xi."

This person never appeared in the dream. Ji Xia thought that he must have stayed in Mr. Fu's house. The plot changed, and his fate also changed.

He smiled and nodded slightly at the doctor. "My name is Jixia. Ji for season, Xia for summer."

Chen Xi curled his lips and asked, "Where is Xia Xia injured?"

Ji Xia bent his legs and rolled up his trouser legs.

Chen Xi squatted down to check. "Nothing serious, just a dislocation."

As soon as he finished speaking, his hands moved quickly. Ji Xia felt a sudden pain in his foot, and then the dull pain that had been lingering all morning disappeared.

Chen Xi smiled, tapped his ankle, and said in an encouraging tone, "Want to move a little and see?"

Ji Xia twisted his ankle slightly, but it didn't hurt. He twisted it wider, but it didn't hurt either. He arched his brows and said, "Thank you, doctor," then turned to Butler Xu and sweetly said, "Thank you."

Butler Xu said, "You're welcome, Master Ji."

Chen Xi glanced at Butler Xu and said, "I don't need it either. Fu Yuan paid my salary."

He sat on the sofa next to Ji Xia, patted his legs, and said, "Put it over here, I'll help you rub the bruises."

Ji Xia said, "Doctor Chen, I can do it myself."

Chen Xi frowned, revealing a sad expression, and asked, "Xia Xia, do you not believe in my expertise?"

"No. I just think it's too much trouble for you."

Ji Xia put her feet on Chen Xi's legs embarrassedly.

Chen Xi's expression changed in an instant. He winked at him and said, "I'll ask Fu Yuan to pay the extra fee."

Ji Xia's face changed, and she was about to withdraw her foot. However, Chen Xi quickly held her back. Chen Xi sprayed some medicine on his hands, applied it to Ji Xia's ankle, and rubbed it in slowly.

Ji Xia was a little anxious and said, "How much do you want to pay? I'll pay you, please don't ask Mr. Fu."

Chen Xi took a look at his clothes. "I'm afraid you can't afford it."

Ji Xia pursed her lips. "Can I pay in installments?"

Chen Xi seemed to think seriously for a moment and said, "Okay, but the interest rate will be based on the market price, 90% out of 13%. The principal is 50,000. How long do you plan to pay it back?"

Ji Xia was dumbfounded. He hadn't expected to rack up such a huge debt in just a minute. He calculated in his mind, but couldn't quite work out how much he'd have to pay back. He could only bite the bullet and say, "Maybe about two years..."

Butler Xu spoke calmly. "Master Ji, Master Chen is just teasing you."

Ji Xia was stunned for a moment.

Chen Xi laughed and said, "Where did Jian find such a cute little girl this time? It's rare. Xia Xia, did you know that Fu Yuan really hates Omegas?"

Ji Xia didn't understand why Dr. Chen asked him this question, so he pursed his lips and didn't answer.

Chen Xi didn't seem to need his answer and continued, "You won't stay here long. You'll be kicked out soon and won't get anything. Why don't you come with me? I'll take good care of you."

He leaned forward slightly, his eyes seductive, "I have three hospitals. Follow me, I'll give you a house, a car, money, whatever you want."

Ji Xia knew what was going on and thought, if he was dead, it would be no use having a house, a car and money.

He said seriously, "I will try my best not to be driven away."

Chen Xi seemed to be surprised to receive such an answer. He was stunned for a moment, then a playful smile flashed in his eyes and he asked, "Then how will Xia Xia work hard?"

The spray for injuries had a pungent smell. Ji Xia rubbed her nose, the tips of her ears reddening slightly as she said, "I'm trying to think harder."

Chen Xi said, "Fu Yuan and I grew up together. I know exactly what he likes and dislikes. If Xia Xia needs help, I can lend a little help."

Butler Xu suddenly coughed lightly.

Ji Xia's attention was all on Chen Xi's words. He had experienced nothing but failures so far in the morning and he couldn't think of any solution at all. It would be great if Chen Xi was willing to help him.

He humbly asked, "Doctor Chen, Mr. Fu said that he doesn't want to keep useless people around him. How can I demonstrate my value?"

Chen Xi blurted out: "You are an Omega."

Ji Xia said "hmm", then waited for a long time without any follow-up, and then answered seriously: "I am an Omega."

Chen Xi:?

He paused in his kneading movements and looked at Ji Xia for a long moment before asking, "Did you become an Omega through secondary differentiation?"

Ji Xia nodded. "I just transformed from Beta to Omega two days ago."

Chen Xi seemed to be thinking about something.

Butler Xu, who had remained silent, suddenly spoke up: "Mr. Chen, I won't waste your time anymore. I'll help Master Ji massage from now on."

Chen Xi refused. "No delay! Uncle Xu, don't worry, I'm a professional and know my limits. Xia Xia, do you know what Alpha likes most?"

Ji Xia shook her head.

Chen Xi said, "Possession and conquest. If you want to stay, there's actually an easier way. He can challenge Fu Yuan and defeat him in the challenge. Then he can ask him for the conditions to stay."

The light bulb next to Ji Xia's head suddenly lit up, illuminating his dark life path.

Chen Xi: "If you want to succeed in this challenge, the challenge must target Fu Yuan's weakest areas."

Ji Xia: “Yeah, yeah.”

Chen Xi: "Based on my thirty years of understanding of Fu Yuan, his weakest sport is swimming."

Ji Xia: “Yeah, yeah.”

Chen Xi: "Xia Xia, Fu Yuan happens to be in the swimming pool at this time, so he can challenge him naturally."

Ji Xia was about to nod "yeah" out of inertia, but he stopped halfway and said, "But I can't swim."

Chen Xi: "I'll buy you a lifebuoy."

Ji Xia asked a soul-searching question: "Can we win like this?"

Chen Xi showed a sad expression. "I know this seems incredible and impossible to you, but I can guarantee that it will work. Xia Xia, don't you believe me?"

Ji Xia felt that it was impossible for him, who couldn't swim at all, to beat Fu Yuan, but Dr. Chen looked serious, so maybe he could do it.

Moreover, Doctor Chen treated him and massaged his feet for free. He was a very good person and would not harm him.

Besides, he had no choice.

After hesitating for a while, Ji Xia nodded and said, "I believe you."

After a pause, he asked worriedly, "What if...what if I accidentally lose?"

Chen Xi smiled and said, "Don't be afraid of losing. Just lie on the ground, stick your butt up, and let Fu Yuan spank you a few times. That's his hobby. A bit perverted, isn't it? All Alphas do that."

Ji Xia blinked in surprise.

Butler Xu closed his eyes in misery.
