Lin Mingfei and Xia Tong's return date was two days later than what they had promised He Youjin.

After returning, He Youjin stood at the entrance of the club with his hands on his hips in an attitude of "one man blocking the way for ten thousand men", staring fiercely at the A and O who were returning hand in hand.

"Manager He!" Xia Tong's eyes lit up when she saw He Youjin. She immediately let go of Lin Mingfei's hand and ran over like a little Pomeranian that had broken free from its chain. She affectionately pulled He Youjin's hands off his waist, held them tightly, and spun around in circles: "I haven't seen you for a few days. I missed you so much!"

He Youjin was stunned for a moment, then instantly cleansed by the pure, harmless angelic aura emanating from the little Omega. His expression softened, and he felt less angry. The corners of his lips couldn't help but curl up. "Why don't you come back soon? You're just wandering around outside. Okay, the wind's so strong, come inside! We can talk inside later."

"Great!" Xia Tong said happily. He let go of her hand and leaped into the base again. "Timer!! Fatty!! Xiaobo!! I'm back!!!"

Lin Mingfei had a smile on his lips, his eyes fixed on Xia Tong's back. He had just taken two steps forward when He Youjin suddenly stepped in front of him like a double door.

"You!" He Youjin's forehead was throbbing with veins: "Explain it!"

"What do you want to explain?" Lin Mingfei asked.

"This one!" He Youjin pointed at the brand new suppression bracelet on his wrist: "This wasn't the style you wore when you left."

Lin Mingfei: "Ah, that one was broken, so I bought a new one."

"Broken?" He Youjin's voice rose, and the words "I don't believe it" were written on his face. "How can something on your wrist be broken? Did you take it off? Why would you take it off for no reason?"

Lin Mingfei was extremely perfunctory: "You're overthinking it." He reached out and pushed He Youjin aside, seeming quite impatient: "It's so windy outside, I'm so cold, I'm going in."

He Youjin's dignity was challenged, and he flew into a rage, "Lin Mingfei!!! Give me your words? Explain clearly!! You are not allowed to go in!! What did you do with Xia Tong outside for two days!! Why are you being so vague!! You must be guilty!"

After hearing this, Lin Mingfei was not in a hurry to leave. He suddenly felt something, paused, and retreated to He Youjin.

"Oh, by the way, let me tell you something," he said seriously to the pufferfish-like Manager He, "Xia Tong is my Omega now, in every sense of the word. Why don't you create a few smurf accounts and control the comments on the forum? I don't want to see anyone else trying to match him up, and those cult-like fan fictions better stay away. We need some official clarity."

He Youjin: "."

He Youjin: "????"

He Youjin: "Lin Mingfei!! Be a human being!!!"

Regarding the fact that Xia Tong was permanently marked by Lin Mingfei, He Youjin investigated the whole cause and effect in detail, so that Shi Ya, the fanning the flames and the military advisor, was also pulled out. Together with Lin Mingfei, he was taken to the conference room by He Youjin for a two-hour criticism meeting.

After confirming that Xia Tong was not pregnant, He Youjin felt relieved and repeatedly put the tight ring on Lin Mingfei.

"No messing around in the base!! No letting your bestiality delay the team's training!! Most importantly, you must use condoms!! And use quality condoms!! Price is not an issue!" He Youjin said fiercely. At the end, he vaguely felt that something was wrong and slammed the table, "No! Even with a condom, there's still a chance of pregnancy. For the sake of the finals, you better abstain from sex!"

"Wow, are you kidding me? We're supposed to abstain from sex, okay?" Shi Ya rested her chin on her hand and sighed, "Tsk tsk tsk, ...

"Hey, hey, hey, could you please stop making a big deal out of nothing? I didn't actively apply for this privilege, did I?" Lin Mingfei kicked him. "Besides, I'm not a sex maniac. Look, I've been bringing Xia Tong to Polaris for so long, and nothing has happened, has it?"

"Oh, don't think you're too noble." Shi Ya stretched out a finger and gently shook it, saying, "All Alphas are big sex maniacs when they're in love! It's the sex hormones that make it happen, and you can't control it."

Lin Mingfei: “…”

In this kind of matter, Shi Ya seems to be particularly experienced and has a lot to say.

After being instigated by Shi Ya, He Youjin looked at him with a strange look in his eyes, as if he wanted to burn a hole in him. Lin Mingfei held his forehead and could only raise his hand and say, "Then I can swear, right? I swear that I will never interfere with the progress of the game because of personal relationships. If I break my promise-"

"I'll make sure that every time you are about to score, you will receive a phone call!" said He Youjin.

Lin Mingfei: “…Shit.”

Today he finally understood what curse and evil force retribution meant. After being depressed for a while, Lin Mingfei slapped his head and remembered a key point.

"By the way, speaking of pregnancy," he said solemnly, "the day before yesterday, I took Xia Tong to the reproductive department of the Affiliated Hospital of City C for a physical examination..."

He briefly reported the inspection results to He Youjin and Shi Ya.

After stating this fact, the conference room was silent for two seconds. Then He Youjin said with a complicated expression, "...What do you mean by telling me this specifically? Are you trying to imply that you can have the privilege of having sex without condoms from now on?"

"Of course not!" Lin Mingfei said, "I just want to say that you should try not to bring up topics related to 'pregnancy' with Xia Tong in the future. I'm afraid it will make him sad."

"Oh, that's it? Of course I am. I'm not stupid." He Youjin said. He sighed softly and said regretfully, "Xia Xiaotong looks pretty miserable... How could she get this disease at such a young age——"

"What's so miserable about it? I don't think it's a big deal. Isn't it just that I can't have children? Lao He, aren't you also unable to have children? Do you feel miserable? Does Fang Haoyang feel miserable about you?" Shi Ya said.

He Youjin: "...Although it doesn't sound like a good thing, I can't even refute it."

"That's right." Shi Ya rolled her eyes and said, "Who made fertility the only value of an Omega? Are Omegas who can't have children useless? Does the underdeveloped reproductive cavity completely prevent Xia Tong from creating wonderful moments? No, right? He is still the cutest and smartest Omega player in our hearts. He can make a lot of money for himself and is a role model in the eyes of many Omegas."

"Well said?" Lin Mingfei laughed and raised her hand towards Shi Ya: "Great minds think alike."

Shi Ya raised her hand and slapped him loudly.

He Youjin: "Hey, hey, hey, you two are acting like I'm disgusted with Xia Xiaotong. I don't mean that, okay..." He paused, and couldn't help but walk down from the front, gritting his teeth and saying, "No, I want to high-five you too. I'll always be damn proud of Xia Xiaotong!"

The three of them clapped their hands in the conference room like crazy, reached some consensus, and then dispersed.

After He Youjin left, Lin Mingfei yawned and was about to go back to the house to rest when Shi Ya, who was standing behind her, suddenly put her hand on her shoulder.

"Hey, Zero." Shi Ya called him softly with a strange look on her face.

"What's wrong?" Lin Mingfei asked.

"I suddenly remembered something." Shi Ya pondered for a moment and said, "I remember Xia Xiaotong mentioned someone to me before."

"who?"

"Zheng Linchuan."

Lin Mingfei's eyebrows rose and her expression became subtle.

"Do you know this person?" Shi Ya asked.

"I know." Lin Mingfei said, "It was someone from his previous family." He recalled the scene when he first met Xia Tong and deduced, "That family seemed to be very interested in Xia Tong's fertility, so they didn't treat Xia Tong well later."

"I guess you should know this too," Shi Ya said. "Was Xia Tong kicked out of that family before? Or...did he escape on his own?"

Lin Mingfei's eyes narrowed slightly.

"I haven't asked him this question yet, but now that you mention it...it's indeed a problem." His eyes were deep.

"Yes, if he was kicked out, it would be fine. But if he escaped because he couldn't stand the abuse, then the Zheng family would be a ticking time bomb," Shi Ya said. He patted Lin Mingfei on the shoulder and said seriously, "If Xia Tong really becomes an influential public figure by then, the Zheng family's influence on him will only be greater. You must be prepared."

"I know. I've considered all of what you said. I'm not completely without any means." Lin Mingfei covered Shi Ya's arm with her backhand and said calmly, "Sometimes I really hope that Zheng Linchuan will come to me soon."

"Oh, then if you're planning on getting him, remember to count me in." Shi Ya said with a smile, "I'd also like to see what this beastly Alpha who treats Omegas like objects actually looks like."

Lin Mingfei thought for a moment and said, "It must be very ugly."
