Lin Mingfei's roar spread out through the hands-free device of her mobile phone, earth-shaking and full of aggression.

Each of their rooms was separated from each other by only a wall, and the balcony was not far away, so it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was within reach. There was a handle crossing over the bamboo basket filled with smelly clothes. Lin Mingfei saw at a glance that this was a masterpiece that Zhou Yanjun had put away and temporarily handed over with a clothesline.

About thirty seconds after he yelled, there was a knock on his door. Xia Tong walked over to open the door in confusion, and saw the fat man Zhou Yanjun rushing in as if he had Hot Wheels under his feet. He grabbed the bamboo basket and rushed out of Lin Mingfei's door like the wind.

Xia Tong was amazed at the video: "These things are really fat!"

Lin Mingfei snorted coldly, "If it's not his, how could it really be mine? Zhou Yanjun is the only one in the base who is the least diligent in doing laundry, and he's the only one whose underpants need to be custom-made!"

Xia Tong rolled her eyes upwards, thinking seriously, "Ah, no wonder he asked me to wait a minute when I went to look for him just now. Turns out he was smuggling dirty laundry!"

Lin Mingfei pinched the bridge of her nose, feeling that letting Xia Tong go play with Zhou Yanjun was essentially a wrong decision. This little omega was just like a young sapling that had just started to grow, and was too easily led astray. If he continued to eat and drink like Zhou Yanjun in the future, and not care about cleanliness and not washing clothes, and piled dirty clothes on his balcony... If it was Xia Tong, it wouldn't be impossible to pile the dirty clothes on him... but it was still a little scary to think about it.

"Forget it, you'd better not look for them. Wait until I get back." Lin Mingfei said. He glanced at He Youjin, who had calmed down over there, put his hands on his hips and sighed softly: "We should be almost done."

"Okay, okay!" Xia Tong said happily, "Then I'll go back to my bedroom! I'll wait for you to come back."

...Why does this sound so awkward?

Lin Mingfei hesitated and said, "You can wait for me in the living room..."

Before he could finish his words, Xia Tong had already hung up the video call.

Lin Mingfei: “.”

He breathed a long sigh of relief, and Xia Tong's words, "I can help you wash your clothes!" began to replay in his mind.

An omega said he wanted to help me wash my clothes... What's going on? She already seems like a good wife and mother.

Lin Mingfei couldn't stop her random thoughts, secretly delighted, with the corners of her lips slightly raised, smiling happily.

"What are you laughing at?" He Youjin had already reached a deal and came back triumphantly with the signed contract. He patted Lin Mingfei and said, "Your phone screen is all broken, and you're still laughing like that!"

Lin Mingfei quickly suppressed her smile, coughed lightly, and returned to her serious tone: "Nothing, how was your bargaining?"

He Youjin gave him a thumbs-up and said, "I've secured all the orders for summer and autumn, and the total price has been reduced to 35%! Am I awesome?"

Lin Mingfei laughed, "Great, great." He nodded and said, "Then let's go back now?"

"Sure, their designer said he'll send me the draft design of the new uniform within three days, and I can make unlimited revisions." He Youjin patted his chest and said, "This is also what I fought for!"

He Youjin's endless boasting and taking credit for himself made him look like a housewife who had successfully ripped off someone when buying groceries. Lin Mingfei was both amused and annoyed. "By the way, are you going to register with the alliance the day after tomorrow? Do you have all the materials ready?"

"Ready." He Youjin said.

"Let me see it before you hand it over. This is your first time doing this, and I'm worried that you might be short of something and have to make several trips." Lin Mingfei said.

"No need." He Youjin refused flatly, waving his hand nonchalantly, saying, "The people from the alliance have already checked it for me. There's absolutely no problem. Just hand it over later."

"From the Alliance Office, is this Fang Haoyang?" Lin Mingfei said with a smile.

"Ah, yeah." He Youjin said complacently without giving it much thought: "He set such a big trap for us, so I have to make him work harder. Otherwise, I will be at a loss."

Lin Mingfei didn't expose it, she just laughed softly: "That's really foolproof."

He Youjin: "...Can you please stop smiling so obscenely? I just took a photo of it on WeChat and showed it to him!"

Lin Mingfei: "Oh, that's great, it's a rational use of resources."

He Youjin: "We didn't meet, and there was no physical contact!"

Lin Mingfei: "Don't be afraid, we'll meet the day after tomorrow anyway, and there will be physical contact and everything."

He Youjin: "??? Lin Mingfei, do you have any misunderstandings about me? Explain yourself clearly to me???"

It was already evening when Lin Mingfei and He Youjin returned to the base. Aunt Song had prepared hot meals early. The base was crowded with people and filled with the warm and friendly aroma of food, just like a big family.

Shi Ya walked out of the room, yawned lazily, and when she looked closely, she saw Zhou Yanjun's Alaska pig standing on tiptoe at the table to steal braised chicken feet.

"I said, you've been eating snacks all afternoon, why do you still have such an appetite?" Shi Ya said speechlessly.

"Don't you understand? Zero might come back and beat me to death, twist my head off and stuff it into my ass. I have to hurry and eat more! Otherwise I'll go on the road hungry!" Zhou Yanjun devoured chicken feet like a large dog while making vague and absurd remarks.

Shi Ya's mouth twitched. "Oh my god, can you two stop being so disgusting?"

Zhou Yanjun felt quite aggrieved, "That's not what I wanted to do..." Before he could finish his words, he heard the sound of the door opening. He was so scared that he jumped on the spot and subconsciously hid behind Shi Ya.

Shi Ya was dragged by him and turned half a circle on the spot. She stood there, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. She raised her eyes and met Lin Mingfei's handsome face with a cold and raised eyebrow.

"Are you still hiding? If you have the guts, don't hide." Lin Mingfei raised her hand and pointed at Zhou Yanjun's fat waist sticking out from behind Shi Ya, sneering.

"You are going to use Qing Dynasty torture on me! Can't I just hide?" Zhou Yanjun was quite excited and kept complaining.

"If you want to hide, don't use me as a cover." Shi Ya watched the fun and didn't mind the trouble. "I can't hide you, you should find Xiao Bo... Oh no, Xiao Bo can't hide you either."

Zhou Yanjun punched him in the waist from behind: "You are a bunch of beastly bastards! You are so cruel!"

Lin Mingfei walked up with her eyes narrowed, her whole body emitting a devilish black aura, and her finger bones were pinched so hard that they made a "crackling" sound. Zhou Yanjun was so scared that he let out a strange "ji" cry and turned around and ran away like a big rat, just in time to see Xia Tong jumping out of the tea room.

"Xia Xiaotong!! Help!" Zhou Yanjun screamed and ran over, grabbed Xia Tong, lifted her up, and held her in front of him.

As Xia Tong was walking, she was suddenly grabbed and used as a shield. She was "camped" between Zhou Yanjun and Lin Mingfei, like the filling in a sandwich cookie, with confusion written all over her face.

For Zhou Yanjun, a giant who could not be completely covered by Shi Ya and Bo Yu, it was even more impossible for him to hide behind the 1.65-meter-tall dwarf. But Lin Mingfei stopped in front of Xia Tong and raised her eyebrows unhappily.

Unfazed by Lin Mingfei's mournful expression, Xia Tong curiously turned around and asked Zhou Yanjun, "What are you guys doing? Are you playing Eagle Catches Chicken?"

"You, you, you ask him!" Zhou Yanjun clamped Xia Tong's thin shoulders on both sides, stretched his neck and said nonsense: "I just borrowed my dirty clothes on his balcony for a while! Why... why are you so angry? Are we still good brothers who will live and die together?"

"You don't wash your clothes and just leave them lying around, and you think you're right?" Lin Mingfei was furious. When he thought about how Xia Tong almost mistook him for a slob who didn't wash his underwear, he felt a chill in his heart. "Zhou Yanjun, come here!"

Zhou Yanjun struggled desperately, "I won't! Shorty!!! You have to help me stop him!! If you don't stop him, I'll break up with you!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Mingfei rolled up her sleeves in anger, "How dare you threaten him!"

Zhou Yanjun screamed: "Xia Xiaotong!!!"

Xia Tong's voice also rose several degrees because of him: "Oh my, I'm here!!!"

Although she had no idea what had happened, Lin Mingfei looked a bit fierce, and Zhou Yanjun looked really miserable. Xia Tong couldn't help but open her arms and block Zhou Yanjun behind her like an old hen. Then she felt that this trick seemed too weak and useless, so she simply raised her hand and pushed Lin Mingfei's chest twice, ordering: "Zero, don't come over, don't come over, just, just stand there!"

Lin Mingfei: “?”

The little omega didn't push the person hard, but it seemed like he was trying to drive someone away, as if he was from the enemy camp, while he and Zhou Yanjun were from the same family.

What's up with Fat Si?! Wasn't this little bastard always calling me "Brother" and clamoring to be with me, wanting to see me all the time? And now he's flipping out?

So what was all that before? Flirting and then running? Were all those nice words just deception? Is this the omega version of Shiya?

Lin Mingfei narrowed her eyes and looked at the proud fat man who was about to inflate and take off, feeling a little frustrated.

"You're protecting him?" Lin Mingfei poked Zhou Yanjun hard from a distance, then lowered her eyes to look at Xia Tong: "Am I not as important as him in your eyes and heart?"

Xia Tong was stunned for a moment, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, and then he nodded solemnly: "If you two are compared together, it seems that Pangpang is indeed a little heavier..."

Zhou Yanjun: “!”

Lin Mingfei: “…”

Shi Ya, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, was also shocked by the confusing plot development: "Huh?"

Xia Tong looked left and right: "Is there any problem?"

Shi Ya: “Uh…”

Zhou Yanjun: “Emm…”

"No, there is no problem." Lin Mingfei said in a hoarse voice, and the whole person's pressure dropped suddenly. He turned his back to Xia Tong, walked to the table, pulled a stool and sat down.

Shi Ya coughed awkwardly, pushed Zhou Yanjun aside, and smiled to smooth things over: "Well... that's enough, let's eat first and do the laundry. I can wash them right after dinner and just consider it as post-dinner exercise."

Zhou Yanjun: "Oh, yes! I'll wash it right after I finish my meal! No delay!"

Lin Mingfei said nothing and concentrated on eating.

This meal felt like it spanned an entire century, and the atmosphere at the table was extremely strange. Lin Mingfei finished eating first, collected the dishes, and went upstairs without a word, leaving a group of people at the table stunned.

Bo Yu was neither a party involved nor a witness, and had the least sense of crisis. He wondered, "Captain, what's wrong?"

Shi Ya poked Zhou Yanjun and Xia Tong with her thumb: "Ask them."

Zhou Yanjun shrank his neck and couldn't swallow his food.

"Xia Xiaotong!" he said in horror. "Although I'm very pleased by your recognition of me, I'm still confused and want to ask you, why do you think I'm heavier than the captain?"

Bo Yu: "...Are you guys playing some kind of whispering game between best friends?"

Shi Ya: "To be honest, the last time I heard such remarks was when I was in high school. The omega sitting in front of me and the omega sitting behind me asked me the same question at the same time."

Bo Yu: "Then how do you answer? Which is more important, the first or the second?"

Shi Ya looked like she had just heard some ridiculous joke: "Are you kidding? The standard answer to a question like this is, of course, 'I value both of you equally.'"

Xia Tong gulped down half a bowl of carrot and pork rib soup, wiped her mouth, and asked in confusion, "What the hell are you talking about? Pangpang weighs 200 pounds, and Zero doesn't seem even heavier than Pangpang!"

Zhou Yanjun: “?”

Shi Ya: “?”

Bo Yu: "...Um, I think if you guys bring Xia Tong along when you chat in the future, do you need to arrange a wall-breaking machine?"

Lin Mingfei returned to the bedroom in a depressed mood.

He fell onto the bed and stared at the ceiling, thinking that his emotions had often become unstable since he met Xia Tong.

Just like an adolescent omega, sensitive and thoughtful.

But that little guy is really too heartless. He could actually say so calmly and confidently that "Zhou Yanjun is more important than him."

Please, even if you really think so in your heart, there is no need to say it out loud like this... Even if you say "You two are equally important" it will be fine!

This is so hurtful...

Lin Mingfei turned over and saw a box of game discs placed neatly on the bedside table.

He remembered that he had played half of the disc, and then he didn't want to put it away, so he just spread it on the set-top box.

Who helped him clean it up? Xia Tong?

Lin Mingfei bent her elbows and rested her head on them, not feeling happy at all.

Maybe if he hadn't stopped her today, Xia Tong would have happily helped Zhou Yanjun wash all the clothes...

At this moment, he heard a slight "click" from the handle of his bedroom door.

——Someone opened the door and came in!

Lin Mingfei was stunned for a moment, turned over quickly, closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep, then she heard the sound of shoes rubbing against the ground and lingered at the door.

It was Xia Tong. This light and soft little thing was the only one in the entire base that made this kind of sound when walking.

What are you doing? Opening the door a crack and peeking in?

Lin Mingfei was secretly speculating in her heart.

He was very angry now, but he couldn't bear to lose his temper with Xia Tong, so he really didn't know how to face Xia Tong. Pretending to be asleep became the best way to deal with it. Lin Mingfei thought that if Xia Tong peeked at him for a while and found that he was asleep, he would take the initiative to leave obediently, right?

Then, he heard the rustling sound getting closer and closer.

——How did this little thing get in here? !

Lin Mingfei was secretly shocked and confused. Two seconds later, he felt his mattress sink.

"Hey!" Xia Tong jumped onto his bed and shouted as if to encourage herself. Lin Mingfei was completely upset. He thought to himself, how could this little thing not have any awareness at all! He sneaked into someone else's room and made such a big noise!

Xia Tong was completely unaware as she crawled on her knees to Lin Mingfei's back and patted him lightly, "Zero!"

Lin Mingfei: “…”

Pretending to sleep! You can never wake up a person who is pretending to sleep!

I can't see this clueless little scumbag!

...Besides, it would be too embarrassing if I was caught pretending to sleep.

"Pa pa pa pa"

Xia Tong took turns patting him with both hands, from his waist to his shoulders, as if giving him a massage, "Brother, brother! Wake up! Don't sleep anymore!"

Lin Mingfei's five fingers resting on the bed slowly curled up.

......It’s too fake that I wasn’t woken up by this?

...But waking up so hastily! That's too easy for Xia Xiaotong!

...Ah ...

From Xia Tong's perspective, the alpha was lying lazily on his side on the bed, motionless. His short, hard black hair covered part of his handsome eyebrows and slender neck line. He was sexy and attractive, but he was motionless and lifeless, which made him very dissatisfied.

I clearly promised to take him out to play when I got back! He's been bored at the base all afternoon! Why didn't you keep your word?

Xia Tong's big eyes narrowed into a line.

He suddenly put one hand over Lin Mingfei's body, supported himself on the quilt, leaned over, moved close to Lin Mingfei's cheek, and buried his head -

The body with the faint fragrance of osmanthus approached, and its breath was as fragrant as orchid, controlling almost every olfactory cell and every pore of his body. Lin Mingfei's heartbeat soared to the limit, and he raised his head almost reflexively.

With this strange posture and movement trajectory, the little omega's lips brushed the corner of his lips neither lightly nor heavily, but accurately and without error.

Lin Mingfei's eyes suddenly widened and she looked at Xia Tong in surprise.

He was lying down, with Xia Tong leaning right above him, looking down at him.

What a bed bang.

But what the little thing said was completely different. "You finally woke up! If you don't wake up——"

"What are you going to do?" Lin Mingfei blurted out in a hoarse voice.

"I'm just going to use my head to wake you up!" Xia Tong's tone revealed a determination like a hero who is willing to cut off his own arm.

"Why do you want me to wake up?" Lin Mingfei stared at him for two seconds, her tone helpless.

"You said you'd come back to play with me!!" Xia Tong angrily grabbed his arm and shook it hard: "How can you not keep your word and be so irresponsible!!"

"I'm irresponsible?" Lin Mingfei asked back.

"You brought me here! How can you just throw me to someone else!!" Xia Tong said angrily.

"You can go find Zhou Yanjun." Lin Mingfei curled her lips and tried to turn over.

Xia Tong refused and pushed him away, "If I go find Pang Pang, I'll have to eat snacks with him!! I can't eat that many snacks!"

"At worst, I'll just gain weight." Lin Mingfei rolled her eyes.

"It's not good to gain weight! If I gain 200 pounds, I'll be heavier than you and you won't be able to hold me!" Xia Tong anxiously hit him with her little fist.

Lin Mingfei was stunned.

"Heavier than me..." He murmured, repeating the words: "Heavier in weight?"

Xia Tong seemed annoyed and pushed him over and got out of bed: "I'm leaving!"

"Hey!" Lin Mingfei quickly stood up and pulled him back: "Don't go!"

Xia Tong struggled for a moment, but was forcibly pulled back by Lin Mingfei. He had a sullen face and said softly, "I came to talk to you happily, but you ignored me. I don't like this."

"I don't like it either." Lin Mingfei said, "The way you pushed me away."

Xia Tong was slightly stunned and turned to look at him: "What——"

Lin Mingfei shook her head: "Nothing."

Xia Tong looked at him steadily. The alpha's frowning expression exuded a sense of melancholy and grievance, which made people feel distressed.

Lin Mingfei was truly good to him, Xia Tong thought. His original intention was to make Lin Mingfei happy, but somehow he had put the cart before the horse...

Some primitive throbbing rose in her heart, was hatched, became clearer and clearer, and was about to burst out - Xia Tong hesitated for a short time, suddenly raised her hands to hold Lin Mingfei's face, leaned over and kissed him on the cheek.

Lin Mingfei: “???!!!!”

Last time it was the hands...this time it’s the face.

And this time he was very proactive...

Xia Tong felt completely satisfied after doing this, grinning happily: "How is it! Do you feel much happier now? Hehehe!"

The alpha's expression was as if he had been struck by lightning. A faint crimson color spread along his neck and upwards, eventually engulfing his entire handsome face.

After a long moment, he murmured, "Do you know what this is called?"

"What's that?" Xia Tong asked.

"That's... this." Lin Mingfei tapped her cheek with a finger. "It's called a kiss. If... you only do this to me, I'll be even happier."

"That's called a kiss! It's very easy!" Seeing Lin Mingfei's mood relax, Xia Tong patted his chest and said generously: "Don't worry, I don't want to do this to others at all! Zero, if you are unhappy in the future, just come to me, I can give you a lot of kisses! Paji Paji!" He smacked his lips and laughed foolishly with genuine feelings.

The two reached a consensus, and Xia Tong happily walked out of Lin Mingfei's room, walking away happily without recognizing any relatives.

Lin Mingfei was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, but had to admit that he had been coaxed. He stood up, walked to the door, and found Zhou Yanjun peeking in the corridor.

"What are you doing?" Lin Mingfei said.

Zhou Yanjun uttered an "Ah!" and came over, rubbing his chubby hands. He said guiltily, "I'm sorry, Captain. I really didn't mean to sow discord between you and Xia Tong. I never thought that with my qualifications... I could be mistaken for a mistress. I really didn't mean it!"

Lin Mingfei narrowed her eyes and patted his shoulder hard.

"You have a pretty clear self-awareness. Don't worry, I don't blame you." He said calmly, "I should thank you."

Zhou Yanjun: “???” His face gradually turned terrified, “Captain, are you so angry that you’re confused?”
