Chapter 60: Don't get close to Alp during his vulnerable period...
Heng Xing and Yu Nianqing decided to visit the Underwater City next.
The underwater city is located below sea level and in the seawater, with a deep blue seascape that stretches as far as the eye can see outside the transparent partitions.
The two booked a VIP room for a week, which included a large waterbed. The room also included a diving package, allowing them to get up close to the corals and surrounding fish.
The underwater city and the hot spring star were two days apart, and neither of them expected that a small accident would occur on the way.
Inside the spaceship,
Hengxing tore open the packaging with her mouth, picked up the Alpha inhibitor inside, and injected it into a bulging vein in her arm. After confirming that all the pale blue liquid in the syringe had entered the vein, she discarded the syringe, tore off the anti-overflow patch, and stuck it to the gland at the back of her neck.
She leaned against the door, waiting for the suppressants to calm the surging reaction within her before leaving the room and heading towards the driver's seat.
"Captain Heng, are you feeling better?" Yu Nianqing asked her worriedly.
When Hengxing woke up this morning, she felt feverish, as if all the blood in her body was rushing to one place. No matter what she looked at, her thoughts would race wildly in some indescribable direction. Therefore, she clearly realized that she was about to enter her most vulnerable period.
Alphas are most susceptible to illness during their most sensitive period, which usually lasts about a week. During this time, Alphas are like wild beasts, devoid of reason. The only thing that can soothe them is the pheromones and body of an Omega.
Yu Nianqing advised her to stay on the spaceship for a week to rest, and then go to the underwater city for vacation after the susceptible period was over.
But she refused without hesitation.
The deposit for the Underwater City Hotel is non-refundable; if you don't stay, you'll lose a thousand Star Coins for nothing.
Moreover, this week marks the start of the peak tourist season, and hotel rooms are fully booked for next week and beyond.
Therefore, Hengxing decisively injected himself with inhibitors, intending to hold out until he entered his hotel room.
She now lay lazily in Yu Nianqing's arms, her head resting on his shoulder, watching the red dot on the map, symbolizing the spaceship, gradually approach the underwater city.
"Captain Heng." Yu Nianqing disagreed with her decision, but she was terribly stubborn. Taking advantage of the calm, she wanted to try to persuade her again.
The Alpha in his arms was probably annoyed by his nagging. As soon as she saw him open his mouth, she sat up on the table in the control area and kissed him, biting his lips fiercely.
"Alright, I won't say anymore." Yu Nianqing said helplessly, wrapping his arms around her and pulling her into his embrace. "You should rest for a while."
It was already the afternoon of the second day when we arrived at the underwater city.
The spaceship landed at the port on the shore, and the two followed the navigation instructions to take the cable car in the underground passage, descending all the way to the seabed.
Yu Nianqing did not expect that she could still feel weightlessness after entering the seabed, and she suddenly tightened her grip on Heng Xing's hand.
She turned to look at him, then silently withdrew her hand and placed it protectively on his waist.
After getting off the cable car, the two went to the front desk to get the key.
The receptionist was a male Beta who looked young, possibly even underage.
"Hello, could you please show us your booking information and identification?"
Yu Nianqing opened the terminal. "The room booking information is here."
"Okay, and you also need identification."
Yu Nianqing: "Oh, okay."
Yu Yi is currently in dire straits himself and cannot afford to look after him; his identity should be safe by now.
"Sir, I see you booked a double room, so we need identification for both of you."
Yu Nianqing frowned: "When I went to other tourist destinations before, they only checked one person's identity document."
Heng Xing's identity had long been cancelled, and he was now a pure-blooded unregistered person. Once his identity was revealed, he would be taken to the Public Security Bureau for investigation.
The receptionist gave a professional smile. "It's the rule."
Since they couldn't produce any identification, these two must really be desperate criminals.
The female Alpha next to him had been giving him a strange glare ever since he started speaking, with the kind of look that said "look at a dead man."
Oh dear, it looks even fiercer now.
The alarm button was next to his left foot.
Help! Should I step on it or not?
Sister, if you want to kill someone, please give me a straight answer. Don't just stare at him like that.
Yu Nianqing hesitated and turned to look at Heng Xing.
After a period of silence,
Heng Xing slowly opened the terminal, "My identity document."
The receptionist withdrew her delicate toes. "Okay, this way, take the elevator down five floors, to basement 601."
A room switch popped up on Yu Nianqing's terminal; simply pressing it would open the door automatically.
"Captain Heng, why were you so fierce just now?"
As they entered the elevator, he took Hengxing's arm.
Heng Xing frowned, looking rather annoyed. "He's so noisy."
Yu Nianqing: "This is their job."
"Um."
She was completely unresponsive; "He's so noisy."
The entire hotel is made of glass, and you can even see small fish swaying on either side of the elevator.
"The underwater city is really special." He was overwhelmed by the beautiful scenery and kept praising it while standing in front of the glass. He even called Hengxing over to look at the little fish he had selected.
Heng Xing wasn't interested in this at all. He casually glanced at the person and gave a perfunctory reply, which sounded very dismissive.
Her entire attention was focused on Yu Nianqing's serene profile, greedily admiring his happy expression upon seeing his favorite seafood.
Yes,
For Hengxing right now, the only thing moving outside is seafood.
She thought, "I'm not injecting enough inhibitors."
She is still standing here looking presentable, all thanks to her strong willpower.
When Yu Nianqing noticed that the Alpha beside her was becoming increasingly strange, the two had already reached the door of the room.
He pressed the door switch on the terminal. "Captain Heng, I'm going to take a shower first."
Alpha's eyes darkened, and he did not answer.
…………
For a whole week, they stayed in their room and didn't go out.
The waterbed swayed gently, drifting through time.
During this time, he remained in a state between lucidity and confusion. When he was close to lucidity, he would get up to admire the lively little fish and beautiful seaweed outside. When he was close to confusion, he would lie heavily in bed and drink the nutrient solution from Hengxing's hand. However, he felt that sometimes it wasn't nutrient solution, but he didn't have the energy to tell.
Never mind, Captain Heng won't harm him anyway.
A week can change a lot. He used to smile and add fuel to the fire when Captain Heng was shy, but now he just wants to escape as quickly as possible.
Sometimes he would try to do it himself, but each time he would be pulled back by his ankle.
Don't get close to Alphas during their vulnerable period, or you'll become unlucky.
Paradoxically, after being fully marked, he felt an instinct to get closer to her. After these two conflicting thoughts, he still simply lay obediently in the Alpha's arms.
When the room rental period came to an end, Hengxing's vulnerable period finally ended, and she transformed from a volatile beastly Alpha back into the adorable Captain Heng.
She called the front desk to ask if she could extend her lease for another week, or if not, she could change rooms.
"There are no rooms left. All the rooms in the entire underwater city are booked." She held the terminal and turned to look at Yu Nianqing.
Yu Nianqing lay on the bed, still not recovered, staring blankly at the ceiling. "It's okay, I don't have the energy to go out and play anyway."
"Okay, then we'll leave tomorrow morning."
Seeing his listless appearance, Hengxing leaned down beside him and kissed his cheek without any lust. "Is there anything you want to eat? I'll go buy it."
Yu Nianqing felt that she looked like a big golden dog at this moment, much cuter than a few days ago, and couldn't help but smile and pat her head.
He said, "I want to eat salmon."
"Alright, wait for me." Hengxing got up, put on her clothes, and went out.
Yu Nianqing turned on the projector and chose a comedy to watch.
Half an hour passed, and Hengxing still hadn't returned.
He messaged her, but she didn't reply.
He found the movie a bit boring, so he got up, walked to the wall, and drew back the curtains, revealing the deep blue sea before him.
The small fish outside saw him and swarmed over. In just a few moments, the small fish gathered into a huge ball of fish, all opening their mouths to beg for food. There were also a few crabs mixed in.
Are these small fish mechanical animals?
He chuckled and poked the fish balls through the glass, saying, "I don't have anything to give you."
The fish followed his finger.
With her legs aching and tired, Yu Nianqing sat down on the sofa. Suddenly, she noticed a poster on the table that read, "Press the button to spray feed, 50 star coins per spray."
It's a bit novel.
He pressed the button, and sure enough, a mist of feed sprayed from the top of the wall.
The fish scrambled for the fish, the school of fish churned, and countless mouths opened and closed.
After more than ten minutes, the little fish, having finished eating, left arrogantly, just like a scumbag A who turns his back on everyone after waking up.
The situation shifted from lively to quiet. Yu Nianqing glanced down at the terminal, refreshed the page several times, and found that Heng Xing still hadn't replied.
I felt even emptier inside.
When he looked up again, he noticed a strange dark shadow in the lower right corner.
This is the biggest fish he has seen this week.
He became interested and watched with curiosity as the dark figure slowly approached.
When the dark shadow floated in front of her, Yu Nianqing was surprised to find that it was not a fish, but Heng Xing wearing a diving suit.
Hengxing waved to him, and the air pump on her foot emitted a continuous stream of tiny bubbles. She then slowly moved closer to the glass.
The glass was very soundproof; Yu Nianqing's loud words couldn't be heard at all. If all else failed, he turned on his terminal, intending to call her.
Most devices nowadays are waterproof.
Hengxing watched him take out the terminal and anxiously patted the window.
Her terminal was a second-hand item she bought on the Spring Spring black market. By its release date, it was already the oldest terminal on the market and had no waterproof function at all, so she left it in the changing room when she changed her clothes.
