Chapter 3 Cannon Fodder Ex-Boyfriend 3: Here to Steal Him?

At this moment, the positions between Li Qingran and Su Jingyi seem to have changed in some way.

Even though they were still embracing, the Omega, who had been dominant at the beginning, could only barely maintain his standing position with the other's arms wrapped around his waist. The Alpha, who had been pinned against the door and unable to resist, was now holding Su Jingyi in a way that was not very aggressive but full of pressure, and lowered his head to bring his nose close to the protrusion on the back of the other's neck.

When Li Qingran walks alone outside, just by looking at her beautiful face, she can easily be mistaken by strangers for a tall Omega.

Gentle and humble, beautiful and slender.

This is the consistent impression that other students in the research institute have of him.

However, when he is with Su Jingyi, especially now, if someone were to pass by, they would never mistake him for a weak, non-aggressive Omega.

In the dimly lit room, the tall Alpha embraced the Omega, who was half a head shorter than him, as if it were an instinct or a test. The Omega's slender figure was tightly hidden in his arms. From behind, if it weren't for the hands around him, nervously clutching his coat, no one would have noticed that there was someone else in his arms.

Twenty-four hours ago, an Omega stood out conspicuously in a dormitory at the dance academy, watching indifferently as the people inside packed their things and left the school.

Su Jingyi felt like she couldn't breathe.

In the past, he was never satisfied with Li Qingran only releasing a little bit of pheromones to him each time.

This resulted in him never being properly comforted.

Now, he can finally eat his fill.

But... isn't that a bit too much...?

The cold, woody pheromones surged toward Su Jingyi from all directions. Even though it was a scent he had always been fascinated by and longed for, when the scent became so strong that it was almost pungent, Su Jingyi had to admit that he couldn't stand it anymore.

Every inch of the surrounding air seemed to be completely filled with Li Qingran's pheromones, which then forcefully and violently penetrated his body with each breath.

The chilling pheromones made his skin feel cold, but they also made his blood boil even more.

The interplay of cold and heat caused Su Jingyi's body to tremble uncontrollably. The glands at the back of his neck grew increasingly hot, and the lemon scent emanating from them became even stronger.

However, Li Qingran was not drawn by the pheromones and did not lose her mind as described in textbooks, biting him recklessly and then completely taking over the Omega in her arms, making him completely hers.

Li Qingran simply stared quietly at the protrusion, observing its red, swollen, yet still smooth surface.

That was a place that had never been invaded by an Alpha. With just a light bite, a clear mark would be left on it, a sign that it had temporarily belonged to an Alpha.

A certain Alpha, whose name had been repeatedly emphasized and instructed by the system, but now...

Li Qingran looked at the protrusion that trembled slightly as Su Jingyi shook, licked the tip of her teeth, then moved closer and licked it gently with her tongue.

"!!!"

Almost instantly, Su Jingyi began to tremble as if in a spasm, and the hand gripping Li Qingran's coat tightened uncontrollably.

He looked like he was in great pain.

But the Alpha, who was usually very attentive to his emotions and feelings, did not stop his actions at this moment. He even increased the strength of his embrace of Su Jingyi, and before the other person completely slipped out of his arms, he put that piece of meat into his mouth.

The next second, a rich lemon flavor exploded in Li Qingran's mouth, spreading everywhere, and then blending with the cold woody aroma.

The Alpha's canines, which he used to conquer territory, suddenly became very itchy. He couldn't wait to pierce the soft flesh in the mouth, to sink his teeth deep into that place, to taste more lemon pheromones while also pouring his own pheromones in, so that the Omega in his arms would be completely tainted with his scent from the outside in...

Perhaps it was at this moment that Li Qingran's aggression was too obvious, and Su Jingyi unconsciously curled his fingertips. Even though what the Alpha was doing was what he had always hoped for, it was still the first time, and Su Jingyi couldn't help but feel nervous.

The feeling of the Alpha grabbing his most vulnerable spot made his hair stand on end, and he instinctively wanted to escape.

However, he could not escape.

The pervasive Alph essence around him rendered his body utterly powerless, leaving him no choice but to remain obediently in the other's arms, enduring being bitten, pierced, and marked...

But just as he felt his soft flesh finally being bitten by the Alpha's canines—

"Buzz buzz buzz—"

A cell phone vibration, not loud but unusually noticeable in the quiet environment, suddenly rang out between the two.

Su Jingyi's phone was silenced the moment he sneaked out of the banquet, so the vibration could only have come from Li Qingran's phone.

"Qingran?"

Su Jingyi clearly felt that Li Qingran's movements had stopped. Although his lips were still on the Omega's gland, he no longer had the reckless and infatuated aura that he had when he was attracted by the Omega's hormones.

Then, he felt Li Qingran's grip on him loosen considerably, and as that grip lessened, the Alpha's lips left the back of his neck.

The alluring atmosphere in the room seemed to be instantly shattered by the vibration, forcing Su Jingyi to regain some of her rationality, while Li Qingran became completely sober.

He straightened up and took his phone out of his pocket.

It was a call from an unknown number without any contact information.

Su Jing didn't want to get involved, but Li Qingran chose to answer the call.

Then, the next second, an exasperated male voice came from the hole.

"Su Jingyi, do you have a death wish?! Today is Grandpa Su's birthday, how far are you going to go?! Do you know how many people were looking for you at the banquet, and you..."

"Zixuan?" Upon hearing the familiar voice, Su Jingyi was first stunned, then his brows furrowed, and his entire body seemed to sprout sharp thorns in an instant, even his voice becoming shrill.

"How did you get this phone number?!"

The person on the other end, who had been passionately accusing Su Jingyi of his excessive behavior that evening, suddenly fell silent upon hearing this, before finally uttering a speechless remark.

Is this important right now?

"For me, this is the most important thing!"

Su Jingyi persisted, "Why did you get my boyfriend's phone number?!"

Su Jingyi certainly didn't think it was Li Qingran's problem; it could only be that someone on Qi Zixuan's side was up to something.

Qi Zixuan never expected that after traveling a long distance in a hurry to bring his brother back from his misguided path, the first difficulty he encountered upon arrival would not be the obstruction from the scumbag, but the questioning from his own brother.

Qi Zixuan felt a deep, betrayal-like pain, but knowing Su Jingyi well, he patiently replied:

"Gu Shiyu gave it to me. I called you dozens of times but couldn't get through. I had no choice but to—"

"Gu Shiyu? It's Gu Shiyu again!"

Before Qi Zixuan could finish explaining, and even upon hearing the name "Gu Shiyu," Su Jingyi began to break down.

"What exactly does he want?! What exactly do you want?! I told you, I'll go back after I finish things here, what's the rush? There are still more than three hours until midnight, I'm not going to be late for cutting the cake!"

"You certainly won't delay the cake-cutting time,"

The voice on the other end of the phone was a deep Alpha voice, its tone so flat that Li Qingran couldn't detect any thought he had about Su Jingyi leaving the banquet halfway through; it was simply stating a given fact.

"But I think Grandpa Su probably wouldn't want to see his favorite grandson appear at his 70th birthday party covered in the pheromones of a strange Alpha."

Su Jingyi clenched his fist. "You investigated me?"

"There's no need to investigate this kind of thing,"

The person opposite said calmly, "So, in order to prevent the Su family from becoming a laughing stock in the circle for the next week, and also to allow your little boyfriend to hide for a little longer, I advise you to hurry up and get dressed and come downstairs. Zixuan and I can wait for you for another five minutes."

After saying that, the other end of the line hung up before Su Jingyi could reply, as if they were certain that Su Jingyi would obediently come downstairs.

This is also what Su Jingyi dislikes most about Gu Shiyu: he's always aloof and superior, as if everyone has nowhere to hide in front of him.

In that instant, he really wanted to just let Li Qingran mark him without a care in the world, and slap Gu Shiyu's perpetually composed and calm face.

But he cannot.

Moreover, Li Qingran stopped cooperating after the experiment ended.

After a brief period of chaos in the room, which was completely soaked in pheromones, Li Qingran finally saw off the unwilling Su Jingyi.

It was only after Su Jingyi left that 888, who had been thrown into the dark room, was able to see the light of day again.

[Host, what's going on? Why did the person in the room become the protagonist's bottom?!] The system's voice sounded very distraught.

Li Qingran, however, felt he had no obligation to answer the other person's questions; on the contrary, he wanted to ask the other person something.

"It's not like you keep saying that the world's plot is fixed, and that I only need to finish my part and the protagonist's plot will automatically move forward."

So can you explain why, even though I've already completed the entire cannon fodder storyline, I'm still stuck in this world, unable to leave?"

【Forehead……】

888 couldn't answer.

In previous missions, it had indeed encountered some hosts who genuinely fell in love with the protagonist and refused to follow the plot. So from the beginning, it was dedicated to brainwashing Li Qingran, making him remember the truth that the protagonist is the bottom and only belongs to the top. Unexpectedly, this time the host was very obedient, while the protagonist was the bottom and the other side was so skewed that it was unbearable to watch.

Li Qingran listened to 888 stammering for a long time, but couldn't come up with a decent sentence.

He wasn't in a hurry, and even took the leisure to tour the room that Su Jingyi had carefully chosen, picking up a rose petal scattered on the snow-white bed before slowly walking to the French windows. He looked down at the three people struggling in the square below.

To be precise, it should be two people.

Because the other one was just leaning against the car, watching them argue.

Neither participate nor leave.

He seemed to be just a simple bystander.

Li Qingran looked at him and then at the other two people, when she heard 888 shout excitedly.

[Host, I understand!]

[The main system just replied that this is mainly due to a problem with the protagonist's side; their aversion to you hasn't increased as predicted by the world's plot. This prevents the story from continuing and prevents you from leaving the world. The only way for the host to leave the world now is to maximize the protagonist's aversion and complete the breakup hurt plot.]

Li Qingran was too lazy to say anything more. [Is this any different from my previous mission?]

Now that the cheating plot has been completed and the result has been seen, it had no effect whatsoever. So how is he going to make the protagonist hate him next?

[Regarding this!] 888 had clearly received guidance from the main system; their voice sounded very confident.

[You won't need to think about the following plot at all, because according to the world's plot big data, the protagonist is already preparing to snatch her away!]

"The main character is making a move?"

Li Qingran subconsciously looked at the man leaning against the car.

What is he planning to do?

[This is currently unknown. Big data can only infer some particularly strong intentions from the main characters, but it cannot reveal the specific content.]

So all they know for now is that the protagonist has the idea of ​​stealing someone.

However, the specific plans, timelines, and even the goals are all unknown.

[But the protagonist is the top! The one who'll definitely want to steal him is the bottom! So don't worry, host, we'll just cooperate with his plan and we'll definitely be able to get off work smoothly!]

Yeah?

Li Qingran did not respond to 888's optimism, but simply turned around and prepared to go back to school to rest and prepare for her upcoming overtime work.

Just as he turned around, whether on a whim or premeditated, the man, who was about to get into the car, suddenly looked up and glanced in the direction of the hotel again.

The direction her gaze fell seemed to be the very spot where Li Qingran had stood for so long...
