Chapter 21 Your Pheromones Are Leaking

It's August now, and the water in the outdoor swimming pool shouldn't be very cold.

But no matter how bright the sun is, it can only warm the shallow layer above. The water temperature gets lower as you go deeper.

In addition, Yu Chucheng had been in the sun for a long time before jumping, and his skin was slightly hot. When he suddenly came into contact with the cold water in the swimming pool, the temperature in his body quickly dissipated. The strong contrast made him feel a bit chilly.

Hao Jia struggled helplessly in the water, "Save me, save me..."

But the more he talked, the more water he choked on.

Yu Chucheng seized the opportunity and grabbed Hao Jia's arm, trying to carry him to swim to the side.

But who would have thought that Hao Jia would cling to Yu Chucheng tightly as if he were holding on to the only piece of driftwood, and his subconscious desire to survive prompted him to instinctively step on the driftwood and stick his head up.

Yu Chucheng was suddenly pulled down and held his breath just before his head sank into the water.

He knew that Hao Jia did this out of a desire to survive, and he could still hold it in for a while, so he went with the flow and sank into the water, holding onto Hao Jia's legs and pushing them up with force.

After struggling in the water for half a day, Hao Jia was finally able to breathe unobstructed. He gasped greedily and a lot of water choked out of his mouth and nose.

That should be about it.

Seeing that Hao Jia was not in immediate danger of death, Yu Chucheng surfaced and grabbed Hao Jia from behind to prevent him from pushing him into the water again.

Ji Zhou ran to the shore early, holding the ladder on the side of the swimming pool with one hand and reaching out to Yu Chucheng as far as possible with the other hand.

Zhang Hanzhou turned his head and said to a servant beside him, "Go prepare two towels."

In the swimming pool, Yu Chucheng finally brought Hao Jia to the shore with great difficulty. He said to Ji Zhou, "Pull him up first."

Ji Zhou originally wanted to pull Yu Chucheng, but seeing Hao Jia's frightened look, he had to grab Hao Jia's hand reluctantly.

Hao Jia was eager to get ashore, so he kicked his legs hard and randomly, and as luck would have it, he kicked Yu Chucheng's waist which was injured before.

The intense pain spread to every part of his body like an electric current. Yu Chucheng didn't clench his teeth and groaned.

A large mouthful of water suddenly poured into his nasal cavity, choking him so much that his eyes went dark and his body sank downwards.

"Yu Chucheng!" As soon as Ji Zhou pulled Hao Jia ashore, he saw that Yu Chucheng had choked on water, with only half of his arm exposed above the water.

The water in the swimming pool hurt his eyes. Yu Chucheng's eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds. The cold water wrapped around him. He couldn't help coughing when he accidentally choked on the water, but every time he coughed, more water rushed into his mouth and nose.

It happened so quickly that Ji Zhou only felt a figure flash past behind him, and then a big hand firmly grabbed Yu Chucheng's hand and pulled Yu Chucheng hard.

“Crash!”

The man was very strong and Yu Chucheng was pulled out of the swimming pool like a chick.

“Cough cough cough!”

Yu Chucheng clutched the wet clothes on his chest and knelt on the ground coughing uncomfortably.

Suddenly, he felt a thin coat with the scent of soapberry draped over him, and the familiar smell made his heart tremble.

He struggled to open his wet eyelashes and looked at Duan Huaijin who was half-kneeling beside him with a hazy vision. Because of the water in his nasal cavity, his voice was muffled and filled with moisture, "Why are you here?"

Ever since leaving Duan Huaijin's house that day, Yu Chucheng has been lying down at home and enjoying life.

He had imagined a thousand scenarios of what the next time he met Duan Huaijin would be like, but he never expected it would be at Zhang Hanzhou's graduation banquet.

In the book, Duan Huaijin also went to Beijing University with the best grades in the city, and he is the real young master of the Zhang family. This damn coincidence is too weird.

Duan Huaijin reached out and tucked the wet hair behind Yu Chucheng's ears, and said in a deep voice: "Don't talk yet, your pheromones are leaking out."

Yu Chucheng was stunned, and only then he realized that the back of his neck was slightly hot and he was emitting a sweet fragrance uncontrollably.

"What's going on? Can't you control it?" Duan Huaijin blocked everyone's view.

Yu Chucheng raised his hand blankly and subconsciously wanted to touch his neck.

He didn't know either. It was his first time as an Omega. How come his pheromones overflowed when he jumped into the water to save someone?

Duan Huaijin grabbed his wrist and said, "Don't touch it."

On the other side, Hao Jia finally recovered from the shock of falling into the water, and Zhang Hanzhou happened to come over and handed him a clean towel.

Hao Jia's heart trembled, and she took the towel and whispered, "Thank you."

Zhang Hanzhou looked at him twice more, then turned to Yu Chucheng who was saving people, "Here is a dry towel, do you need help?"

Yu Chucheng shook his head vaguely, "No need..."

In fact, his thoughts were a bit confused, and his sense of smell suddenly became unusually sharp. In the air, the smell of grass dried by the sun mixed with the smell of disinfectant in the swimming pool penetrated into his nose. He not only smelled Duan Huaijin's pheromones, but also the smell of Ji Zhou. Even Zhang Hanzhou, who had just approached, seemed to be wrapped in a layer of bitter black tea.

Yu Chucheng realized that he was not in the right state. He was under the sun, but his hands and feet felt cold. Only his glands and breath were hot. He was eager to find a warmer heat source. This situation was exactly the same as when he was in the second differentiation.

"I want to leave here." Yu Chucheng exhaled a breath of hot air and staggered when he stood up from the ground.

Just as Ji Zhou was about to step forward, Duan Huaijin was quicker than him and grabbed Yu Chucheng's arm.

Yu Chucheng's pupils were a little dilated, and there seemed to be a fire burning in his throat. He gasped with his lips slightly open, and it took him a long time before his vision gradually focused.

So hot.

Duan Huaijin lowered his eyes and looked at Yu Chucheng's wet hair and moist eyebrows. The man who had just jumped in to save the beauty now looked so pitiful.

The moment Zhang Hanzhou saw Duan Huaijin clearly, his hand holding the dry towel froze in mid-air.

He already knew his true identity, so how could he not recognize this face?

When he learned that Duan Huaijin's goal was to go to Beijing University, he also applied for Beijing University. It was not his fault that his son was exchanged, and his background was not something he could decide. He just wanted to prove that he was no worse than a real young master, and it was not a loss for the Zhang family to treat him as their own son.

Fortunately, he lived up to everyone's expectations and was admitted, but on such a happy day, the person he least wanted to see suddenly appeared in front of him.

Zhang Hanzhou stood there as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight, and for a moment he forgot what to say.

Duan Huaijin raised his eyes indifferently and met Zhang Hanzhou's gaze.

Zhang Hanzhou looked away first because he felt guilty, but he still tried to maintain a calm expression on his face.

"Get out of the way." Duan Huaijin's tone was firm and tough, and it didn't sound like a negotiation.

For some unknown reason, Zhang Hanzhou actually stepped aside uncontrollably to make way.

It was not until Duan Huaijin and Yu Chucheng passed by him that he suddenly came to his senses. After he came to his senses, he felt ashamed and angry, as if he had been frightened by Duan Huaijin just now.

Zhang Hanzhou felt a little embarrassed and immediately followed them, "Where are you going?"

When Duan Huaijin had a sullen face and didn't speak, he always gave people the impression that he was not someone who could be easily messed with. The onlookers automatically dispersed to both sides and watched Duan Huaijin walk up to the second floor with Yu Chucheng, whose steps were unsteady.

Yu Chucheng's legs were weak and if Duan Huaijin hadn't supported him, he would have collapsed to the ground.

He didn't know what stimulated him today. The pheromones he emitted became stronger and stronger, and he couldn't control them even if he tried hard to concentrate.

My head was getting heavier.

In the chaos, Yu Chucheng found himself being taken by Duan Huaijin to an empty study room on the second floor.

How come Duan Huaijin is so familiar with the Zhang family? It's as if he has lived in this mansion for several years and is the owner of this house.

But Yu Chucheng didn't have time to think about it. After a moment of cold, he suddenly felt dry in the mouth. The inexplicable heat made him tilt his neck back, and he stretched out his hand to take off his coat, looking for help at the only person in the room besides him.

"I'm so hot..."
