Chapter 140 Random Thoughts (Part Two)
Pei Wu got up and moved her wrists slightly, feeling a sharp pain.
The person surnamed Sun did not use pheromone attacks; otherwise, they would have been repelled by the barrier immediately.
But Pei Wu guessed that this person's body had long been ruined by the alcohol, and probably no longer contained any pheromones.
So under Guan Yan's brutal beating, he could only fight back once or twice, and for the rest of the time he covered his head, finally shouting, "I was wrong!"
Guan Yan was panting heavily, and Pei Wu pulled him behind her.
The man surnamed Sun raised his head slightly, his eyes clear yet sinister, and muttered, "Just you wait."
Pei Wu bent down, grabbed the man surnamed Sun by the collar, and then shoved him back forcefully. With a "bang," the man was thrown against the car door and cried out in pain.
Pei Wu: "What did you say?"
"You two Omegas, you think you're so great just because your families gave you a little money?" the man surnamed Sun sneered. "Once you have an Alpha, you'll still be destined to serve them."
Chu Lin just got out of the car.
Guan Yan replied, "Okay, then you can talk to my Alpha."
Chu Lin immediately noticed a scratch on Guan Yan's neck. Without even asking, he knew that although the man surnamed Sun had few pheromones, he was still an Alpha. When attacked by a high-level Alpha with pheromones, he was like being electrocuted and couldn't even utter a complete sentence.
Before long, his eyes rolled back, and Chu Lin didn't stop until he fainted.
Guan Yan: "Forget it, it's just a bedbug. We're just unlucky."
It's tough on Mr. Qian; he'd already driven most of the way out, and now he had to come back to clean up the mess.
Chu Lin's expression turned ugly at first, and he reeked of gunpowder. No one dared to approach him, and he seemed to be in a real situation. But when he turned his head, he saw that Pei Wu had taken off his wristwatch and his joints were swollen. At the same time, Chu Lin's expression changed, and he and Guan Yan took Pei Wu to the hospital.
Pei Wu sighed helplessly, "Just put on a plaster."
"It's not up to you," Guan Yan urged Chu Lin to drive faster. "We need to have a doctor check it first."
Pei Wu let them do as they pleased and asked Chu Lin, "How did you get here so quickly?"
"It's nearby. I was originally planning to pick up Guan Yan and take him home."
We picked up the speed and arrived at a nearby private hospital in less than ten minutes.
At Guan Yan's insistence, Pei Wu had an X-ray taken. No bones were broken, but he still had some contusions. In addition, his physical condition wasn't very good, so the doctor said he would need to rest for about half a month and not lift heavy objects during that time.
After being prescribed oral anti-inflammatory medication and some patches, Pei Wu's wrist was already wrapped in a bandage, with a faint smell of traditional Chinese medicine wafting through the air.
Pei Wu: "If I need you to help me keep this a secret, is that alright?"
Chu Lin looked at him with a "Are you kidding me?" expression.
Guan Yan ran to the side and made a phone call.
As the sun set, Pei Wu sat on a bench and glimpsed a nest of ants carrying a large piece of bread.
Chu Lin muttered to himself, "What should I do? My heart races whenever I see Lu Xi and smell him."
Pei Wu: "Perfect timing, there's a hospital right behind here, go check it out."
Guan Yan: "It's abnormal that you, Lu Xiwen, are so calm, isn't it?"
"Nonsense," Pei Wu thought to himself, before a black Cayenne came into view.
As soon as the car came to a stop, Lu Xiwen took a long stride and strode out.
Oh no, Pei Wu's heart was racing too.
Lu Xiwen frowned slightly, his expression not very strong, which, against the backdrop of the dark sky spreading out behind him, created a sense of oppression.
The first thing Lu Xiwen said when he walked up to him was, "Let me see your wrist."
Pei Wu stretched out.
In fact, Pei Wu's request to keep it a secret was clearly partly driven by wishful thinking, because this appearance could not escape Lu Xiwen's notice.
"Where is he?" Lu Xiwen lifted his eyelids and looked at Chu Lin.
Chu Lin: "...I've already dealt with him. He's only a B-rank. I knocked him out in a dozen seconds with my pheromone attack."
Lu Xiwen carefully examined Pei Wu's wrist. He had taken great care of this person, and even the joints gleamed with a lustrous sheen. Lu Xiwen felt a surge of rage. "Fine, I'll ask her later."
“It’s not serious,” Pei Wu explained. “It has nothing to do with President Qian. That person just suddenly had a relapse.”
"Hmm." Lu Xiwen led Pei Wu out, then turned to Guan Yan and instructed, "Don't you usually have a bodyguard with you? Why did you forget today? Keep it up from now on, since Chu Lin is the only one nearby."
Guan Yan scoffed: "You didn't see how that bastard was beaten to a pulp and ran away with his tail between his legs."
Lu Xiwen said nonchalantly, "President Guan is really amazing."
Guan Yan: "..."
Not long after returning home, a flood of apology messages from President Qian arrived. Pei Wu reassured him that it wouldn't affect the cooperation, and President Qian stated that the man surnamed Sun would never appear again.
Pei Wu was unaware that Lan Zhe had already made a phone call. Boss Qian felt like fainting when he heard it. After receiving a positive answer from Pei Wu, the first thing he did was to kick out the guy surnamed Sun. He didn't care about paying him more money, otherwise he would get him killed sooner or later.
"I'm sorry I scared Mr. Qian." Pei Wu put down her phone.
"Hmm." Lu Xiwen carefully removed the gauze. "Is it also not advisable to get it wet?"
"It's okay, the skin wasn't damaged."
When Pei Wu took a shower that evening, Lu Xiwen washed her hair. There was no romantic atmosphere at all. Lu Xiwen was very careful, and Pei Wu was a little uncomfortable.
Surprisingly, they didn't do anything reckless.
Fortunately, the injury is to the left hand, so it doesn't affect eating or anything else.
Pei Wu tried her best not to swing her left arm, which startled Lan Zhe when she went to the company the next day.
"Is it that serious?"
"No." Pei Wu glanced inside. "I don't want him to worry."
Lan Zhe: "It's bad luck to run into people like that."
Pei Wu nodded in agreement.
“Oh, right,” Pei Wu suddenly remembered, “that Mr. Zou who poached you before, Lu Xiwen specially invited him.”
Lan Zhe: "...Huh?"
"You know how petty your boss is."
"Then let me remind Mr. Zou to wear a helmet when you come."
Pei Wu: "...Okay."
Lu Xiwen accompanied Lan Zhe to the cafeteria at noon. Lan Zhe felt he was having fun and didn't bother cutting the steak.
Sure enough, President Lu couldn't resist and scooped up a spoonful of mashed potatoes to feed Pei Zhu.
Everyone around stopped at the same time.
Pei Wu looked at Lu Xiwen, who was standing there, exclaiming, "Ah—"
"Is Pei Zhu going to eat this?" someone whispered.
It's so tender! Lan Zhe proudly took a bite of the omelet rice.
Pei Wu paused for a moment, then opened her mouth and ate.
Lan Zhe chuckled. Pei Zhu could only hold onto anything that President Lu insisted on, unless it was a matter of principle, for less than ten seconds.
Lu Xiwen had the chicken wings deboned by hand and placed in Pei Wu's bowl.
“I can use my right hand, and I can move my mouth,” Pei Wu reminded him.
"Mmm," Lu Xiwen replied casually, "You eat first."
Lan Zhe swept everything away at lightning speed, and then watched with satisfaction as everyone put down their bowls and chopsticks one after another, as if it were a contagious disease.
I warned you long ago that this dog food isn't so easy to digest, why didn't you believe me?
Lan Zhe wiped his mouth and went upstairs, satisfied.
In late autumn of the same year, in mid-October, the climate in Hongdu was cool and pleasant, and Jiguang Island was a paradise. Especially at dusk, when the birds returned to their nests, the waves gently lapped against the rocks, and the wooden houses looked like an oil painting in the afterglow. Lu Xiwen had finally waited for this day.
