Chapter 86 Sweet Talk
Lu Xiwen emerged, enveloped in the heat, and changed his clothes at the door. Dressed casually, with broad shoulders and back, he looked like a young college student at first glance.
Pei Wu sat on the edge of the bed, sipping the floral tea from Lu Xiwen's thermos, her gaze focused as she gently scanned the Alpha from head to toe.
Lu Xiwen unconsciously moved his shoulders and neck slightly, then said, "Be careful, it's hot."
Pei Wu sighed inwardly, "It's just a fever, he's not crippled."
"Stop saying such unlucky things." Lu Xiwen came over, bent down and rubbed against Pei Wu twice until he messed up the Omega's neat hair. Only then did he go to the refrigerator to get a beer. He didn't make eye contact with Pei Wu much during the whole process, but he was definitely exuding a pleasant aura.
Pei Wu sensed something and chuckled.
Lu Xiwen turned around and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
"It's funny that President Lu, who once thoroughly criticized a high-level executive who messed up the feng shui arrangement in his office, would say such unlucky things. It's also funny that President Lu, a dignified person, is actually shy."
"No!" Lu Xiwen finished his beer in one gulp.
Pei Wu looked on with longing: "Give me a can too."
Lu Xiwen slammed the refrigerator door shut: "Don't even think about it."
"..."
Having guessed it, Pei Wu got out of bed and planned to take a shower.
At this moment, Lu Xiwen eagerly came over again, "Do you have the strength? If not, I'll go with you."
Pei Wu glanced at him sideways: "Didn't you just finish showering?"
"Let's wash it again."
"Bullshit!" Pei Wu thought to himself. If he let Lu Xiwen in, he would just have to go back to sleep after he came out. That's fine. Although his physical fitness hadn't declined, it really couldn't keep up with the top level. At the bathroom door, Pei Wu blocked Lu Xiwen from entering.
Lu Xiwen almost got a cold shoulder, but he wasn't angry. Instead, he called the front desk and asked them to send food quickly.
Pei Wu completely relaxed in the bathtub.
He gazed at the smooth ceiling, a slight smile playing on his lips.
After differentiating into an Omega, he often browsed some forums. Some Omegas said that what they feared most was the heat cycle. Some faced gland problems, while others had too low an Alph level or insufficient compatibility between the two, resulting in a very bad experience.
It's important to know that if the glands are not satisfied, it can cause an unusually uncomfortable and stifling feeling during the fever period. Since the AO relationship is determined by genes, there's nothing that can be done about it. Therefore, inhibitors become a necessity in this situation.
After taking a shower, Pei Wu felt refreshed. The wet sponge that had been pressing on her body suddenly loosened, and her steps became much lighter.
Pei Wu ate a simple bowl of chicken noodle soup, which warmed her up and she finished it all.
"Is that enough? If not, have another bowl." Lu Xiwen leaned over and watched, his lower half of his face buried in his arms for a few seconds, making his eyes look wide open.
"That's enough." Pei Wu stared at him for a moment, then couldn't help but ask, "Are you looking forward to a period of submission?"
This can be considered a common interest or quirk among many Alphas.
Whether during the heat cycle or after marking, an Omega will be very dependent on their Alpha, submitting to the Alpha's pheromones and becoming so obedient as to be completely compliant.
Some tasteless Alphas use this as a topic of conversation and something to brag about.
"No, the pheromones I give you are very gentle, there won't be a period of submission." Lu Xiwen still had this much self-control. After saying a few words, he became embarrassed and said, "Wife, you are so beautiful."
Pei Wu: "…………"
When did this sharp-tongued person become so adept at spouting sweet nothings?!
Pei Wu gripped her chopsticks tightly, closed her eyes, and parried for a long time. Then, at a certain moment, she smelled a refreshing scent of pheromones. She threw down her chopsticks, grabbed Lu Xiwen's collar, and pulled him close.
“Sweet talk,” Pei Wu said.
Lu Xiwen rushed over and kissed him.
Pei Wu couldn't stay in the room any longer and desperately needed fresh air from outside. After he and Lu Xiwen finished getting ready, they went out. As soon as they arrived in the hall, they saw Kuang Junmeng and Guan Yan drinking tea and chatting.
Lu Xiwen was full of admiration: "You two waited all this time just to see some excitement?"
Kuang Junmeng wore an expression that was hard to describe.
Guan Yan said expressionlessly, "President Lu, is it possible that the event has already ended, and we met here today to discuss business?"
Lu Xiwen: "...I see."
Guan Yan glanced at Pei Wu's face; he was full of vitality.
Pei Wu pulled out the stool to Guan Yan's right. The window was wide open, and the wind from Honghai blew straight in. He sat down and comfortably squinted his eyes.
The waiter came over and asked them what they would like to drink.
Pei Wu: "Orange juice, thank you."
“I’ll have orange juice too.” Lu Xiwen didn’t move, but asked Guan Yan, “Shall we switch seats?”
Guan Yan squinted: "Do you have to be so clingy?"
Lu Xiwen snorted lightly: "Pei Wu's fever just ended, and I marked him, understand?"
"So what?" Guan Yan scoffed. "You've entered the period of submission?"
There is no such thing as a "submission period" for a top-tier individual, but Lu Xiwen remained silent.
Guan Yan: "..."
Guan Yan stood up and nodded in agreement.
"Where's Fang Xiao?" Lu Xi asked, sitting down next to his Omega.
“We went back to Haicheng a long time ago,” Kuang Junmeng said. “You taught him a lesson with those two bottles of baijiu that day. The kid threw up and we bought plane tickets right away. He didn’t even stay overnight.”
Lu Xiwen smiled.
"Cao Guan will be here in a bit," Guan Yan said. "Hey, you surnamed Lu, about that Jiguang Island project of yours, give it to the brothers too..."
Before he could finish speaking, the engine roared in.
Everyone turned their heads and watched as a black car crashed into the floor-to-ceiling glass of the main entrance across the street. With a loud crash, shards of glass rained down. Fortunately, there were no people around at the moment, but the crash startled two waiters who were not far away.
"Isn't that Cao Guan's car?" Kuang Junmeng suddenly stood up.
The next second, Cao Guan got out of the car, clutching his bleeding forehead, revealing a chilling eye: "Let's go!"
This seemed to be some kind of signal; the windows facing the street were instantly locked, and the clicking sound was unusually clear.
A large number of people poured down the stairs on both sides in an instant.
Lu Xiwen was quick-witted; if it were just these people, Cao Guan wouldn't have lost his composure like this.
It's important to understand that even a one-tier difference between Alphas is a huge gap, and when facing top-tier Alphas, sheer numbers are simply ineffective.
"Isn't it too late to leave now?" someone said with a laugh.
Several fierce pheromone barriers enveloped the entire restaurant.
The hall had fallen completely silent at some point. Apart from Lu Xiwen and his group, there was another group of people, and the waiters had all disappeared.
The crowd on the other side parted to the sides, and a lean, middle-aged man emerged. He was quite tall, with crescent-shaped eyes that seemed very approachable, but the aura he exuded was extremely unsettling.
At that moment, Cao Guan was pulled in front of Kuang Junmeng. "You're disfigured?"
"Probably not." Cao Guan immediately looked at himself in the decorative mirror next to him; he still cherished his face quite a bit.
"Please hear me out first," the middle-aged man continued.
Cao Guan whispered, "That man is Wu Lian."
