Chapter 16 Lifetime Marking: Xu Lingzhao and Chu Jingze undergo lifetime marking.
Inside the villa.
Xu Lingzhao took off her coat and hung it by the door. Her gaze swept over the empty living room and the servants with their heads bowed. She went straight to the master bedroom on the second floor. The room was dark, so she turned on the warm light. A clump of blankets was visible on the bed. Xu Lingzhao lifted the blankets and hugged Chu Jingze from behind. Finding him motionless, Xu Lingzhao placed her head on the top of his fluffy hair and whispered, "Why aren't you answering me? Hmm?"
He still didn't move, so Xu Lingzhao gently turned him over to face him. She then noticed that his eyes were red and his face was streaked with tears. Seeing his pitiful state, Xu Lingzhao tenderly wiped away his tears and looked at him gently: "What's wrong, baby? Tell me, okay?" She paused: "Is it because I haven't been with you? I've been too busy lately. I'll come home more often in the future, okay?"
Chu Jingze silently shed tears, his shoulders trembling slightly. Xu Lingzhao picked him up, letting him sit in her lap. She took out a handkerchief and gently wiped away his tears, kissing his forehead and cheeks soothingly. "I neglected you. I'm sorry. What did I do wrong? Tell me, baby. I'll definitely change." She kneaded his glands with her hands, inhaling the fragrance emanating from his body. Three years had passed since they last met, and she had only returned a handful of times in the past year. She couldn't help but wonder if Chu Jingze no longer liked her.
She hadn't asked his opinion when she brought him to the villa. They hadn't seen each other for so long. After thinking for a long time, Xu Lingzhao seemed to have made up her mind: "You... don't you like me anymore... If that's the case, I..."
Before he could finish speaking, Chu Jing cried even harder, sobbing uncontrollably, gasping for breath, and accusingly saying, "It's clearly you who doesn't like me, I hate you, don't hug me." He struggled as he spoke. Seeing that he was finally willing to speak, Xu Lingzhao hugged him tighter, patting his back soothingly, "I don't dislike you, why do you hate me? Tell me?"
Chu Jing grabbed her left hand fiercely: "You don't wear a ring anymore!" Tears welled in his eyes: "Back then, I thought you were dead, so I went to your room to get your belongings..." His voice choked with emotion: "They all smelled of Omeg."
Xu Lingzhao suddenly realized what was going on. She took his hand in return, interlocking their fingers, and told him about the crisis in the desert and how Huo Qi had taken her ring. She explained patiently, but Chu Jingze started crying again: "Huo Qi can see you, but I can't." His unusual focus amused Xu Lingzhao: "Silly girl, I was arrested back then, but it was my fault. I'll buy a new pair of rings tomorrow, okay?"
He didn't speak, just looked at her resentfully. Xu Lingzhao instantly understood what he meant. She then told him everything about Li Ming, and whispered in his ear, "I rejected him and sat at the door all night looking at your picture." As she spoke, she took out a pocket watch from her pocket, opened it, and showed it to Chu Jingze. Inside was his picture.
"Back then, when Qianxue told me you were going to commit suicide for love, I came to find you after I finished what I was doing, but you were asleep." Xu Lingzhao looked at the person in his arms, lifted his hand and kissed the back of it: "Silly boy, don't do that again. It's all my fault, please forgive me?"
Her tone was so sincere, her eyes burning with anticipation for his answer.
After hearing this, Chu Jing stopped crying. Feeling sorry for Xu Lingzhao's experience, she hugged her neck and muttered softly, "How do I know you haven't marked anyone else?"
"You don't trust my willpower at all? I'm a recognized Alpha, after all." Xu Lingzhao smiled and cupped his face in her hands: "Why don't you give it a try, baby?"
Chu Jing blushed at her address. He bit his lip, his eyes filled with affection, and said, "You... how can you be so glib?" He lowered his head in embarrassment, but the next second, his stomach rumbled. He opened his eyes wide and tried to lower his head again, but Xu Lingzhao forced him to lift his head up. "How about I cook you some noodles? We have plenty of time tonight. You need to conserve your energy."
As soon as she finished speaking, she carried Chu Jingze downstairs in a princess carry, placed him on a chair, and started cooking noodles. Soon, steaming hot noodles appeared in front of Chu Jingze, but Xu Lingzhao did not let him eat by himself. Instead, she gently fed him herself. After a while, she took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth.
She moved closer to him and gently kissed his lips: "Are you full?"
He nodded, only to see the person in front of him reveal a meaningful smile: "Then it's my turn." After saying that, she picked him up from the chair again and carried him back to the master bedroom. After gently placing him on the bed, she rubbed his lips with her fingers: "I'm going to take a shower first. Wait for me. These clothes are too stiff."
When Xu Lingzhao emerged from the bathroom in a bathrobe, her long golden hair cascading down to her waist, her beauty mark under her left eye more prominent, and her delicate, sharp features softened when she faced Chu Jingze. She slowly approached the person on the bed, embraced him, her nose brushing against his cheek, her eyes filled with obvious desire: "A lifelong mark, okay?"
Chu Jing looked at her with a flushed face. His pheromones filled the entire room. Today happened to be his hottest day. When he heard Xu Lingzhao mention the lifelong mark, he couldn't believe it: "Really?"
"Hmm? Silly boy, why are you so dazed? I said four years ago that I wanted to mark you for life, but back then..." She kissed his earlobe: "The baby who chooses me must be very healthy." Her warm breath sprayed on his neck, making Chu Jingze tremble involuntarily. She picked up his wrist, looked at the scar left from his suicide pact, and kissed it tenderly: "You're not allowed to do anything to hurt yourself in the future. If you do it again... I'll..."
Xu Lingzhao didn't continue, he was worried because she had been gone for too long. He changed the subject: "I'll make sure you can't leave the room." These words made Chu Jingze smile slightly. He stroked her face: "You have to take good care of yourself. I can't live without you."
"Me too."
She laid Chu Jingze down, making him lie comfortably. Xu Lingzhao hugged Chu Jingze from behind, her gaze falling on his swollen glands. The sweet pheromones wafted through the air, and Xu Lingzhao's eyes became slightly hazy. "Such a sweet smell." As soon as she finished speaking, she couldn't help but kiss him. Feeling the trembling of the person in her arms, she opened her mouth and gently bit down on the gland, her sharp teeth piercing the gland and injecting pheromones inside. She didn't pour all the pheromones in at once, but rather infused them little by little, so that Chu Jingze would feel more comfortable. The person in her arms couldn't help but groan, and she kept comforting him.
The sweet pheromones exploded in Xu Lingzhao's mouth, constantly assaulting her nerves. She truly loved him, so she peeled off her clothes layer by layer, leaned over and pressed her whole body against his, feeling his warmth.
The night was long, and Chu Jing cried and said no, but Xu Lingzhao coaxed her to continue.
For seven consecutive days, the two of them did not leave their room, and Xu Lingzhao handled all his official business online.
That morning, Xu Lingzhao looked at the sleeping person in his arms and couldn't help but kiss his forehead. When he tried to get up and get out of bed, he was hugged around the waist and a wronged voice rang out: "You're leaving again."
Xu Lingzhao comforted him, "Hmm... I'll come back as soon as I have time, okay?"
"No." After the lifelong mark, Chu Jing became even more clingy. He took Xu Lingzhao's left hand and his own right hand, each with a new ring on their ring finger. He looked at Xu Lingzhao pitifully and said, "I feel so insecure."
Xu Lingzhao thought for a moment, then picked up Chu Jingze and placed him on her lap to discuss with him: "How about you come with me to Pasifica? But there will be risks if your identity is exposed." She rubbed his earlobe with her fingers, her tone ambiguous: "How about being my adjutant? Adjutant Chu, but you have to promise me that you won't do anything dangerous."
"Can't I tell others that I'm your wife?" Chu Jing asked her, blinking her big eyes and pouting to express her dissatisfaction.
Xu Lingzhao was charmed by his appearance and chuckled, "Okay, but that's too dangerous. I'll just have to limit the baby's activities to my office." She looked at him with a smile, but before she could finish speaking, he hurriedly interrupted her.
"No, no, I don't want anyone to covet my Alpha! It can't just be in the office!" He grabbed her neck tightly, biting his lower lip, and muttered, "It can only be mine."
"It was always yours," Xu Lingzhao replied with a smile. "Once everything settles down, let's have a wedding, okay?"
Okay~
Inside the council building, people came and went, each one in a hurry.
Upon seeing Xu Lingzhao enter, he bowed his head to greet her. Xu Lingzhao nodded in response. Beside her was Chu Jingze, who was dressed in an adjutant's uniform. He followed closely behind Xu Lingzhao, noticing out of the corner of his eye that many people were frequently glancing at him.
As soon as Xu Lingzhao entered the office, he closed the door, pressed him against it, kissed him, looked him up and down, and leaned close to his ear: "So sexy."
Seeing that his ears were red, she stopped teasing him and sat down at her desk. The small workstation next to her was temporarily added for Chu Jingze. After handing over some data analysis tasks to Chu Jingze, she quickly got into work mode and processed some important documents. A little while later, there was a knock on the office door.
An Omega major came to report on his work. Xu Lingzhao listened carefully, finalized a few plans, and then let him leave. Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed that Chu Jingze's typing hand suddenly tightened its grip. She smiled slightly, reached out and pulled Chu Jingze, chair and all, in front of her, kneading his palm: "Lieutenant, what's wrong? Why are you pressing so hard? Doesn't your finger hurt?"
Chu Jing then said quietly, "Hmph, the way he looks at you is strange."
"Did I notice anything off about his gaze?" Xu Lingzhao asked with interest, finding his behavior rather endearing.
"Um...no."
Xu Lingzhao pinched his cheek and called a doctor over to implant small locators in his wrist and behind his ear. She was worried about him, but she couldn't treat him like a caged bird. She could only do her best to ensure his safety.
