"The Admiral said he won't see you until the susceptible period is over." Demi stood in front of the study and solemnly announced, "He will sleep in the study, and you will sleep in the bedroom, ma'am."
"Why should he make decisions for me?" Shen Que asked coldly.
"Actually... I also suggest you keep your distance..."
Demi looked embarrassed.
"Madam, you scared us yesterday, and also... scared the Admiral. He almost collapsed."
Shen Que blushed slightly, "This is my fault."
He had never experienced fever after coming into contact with Pei Ji's pheromones many times before, so he thought it would be safe this time too.
I didn’t expect that the Alpha in the susceptible period was so... talented.
"But he just gave me a sign." Shen Que said, "He can't see me."
An Omega who has just been marked, even temporarily, will become dependent on the Alpha who marked him and will need a period of adaptation.
From the moment he woke up, every cell in Shen Que's body was clamoring to see Pei Ji.
Demi sighed. "But what if he bites you again? You already fainted from the pain yesterday. Your body won't be able to handle it again."
She said, pointing to a row of reagents on a cart.
"The Admiral requested a new batch of soothing agents from Doctor Li this morning. If you need his pheromones, you can make do with this for now."
Anya gasped. "Only a scumbag would use a soothing potion to get rid of a freshly marked Omega."
She stole a glance at Shen Que.
"This behavior is worthy of a report to the Omega Rights Protection Association!"
Shen Que looked at the familiar row of soothing drugs in silence, and slowly clenched his hands at his side.
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, the old butler Hall suddenly appeared.
"Madam, have you previously filed a lawsuit in the Admiral's name? The court has just issued a summons and is set to open in two days."
…
"Because this lawsuit involves a high-ranking official of the General Services Administration, Minister of Trade Lucas, and the amount involved is huge, the Oasis Court decided to hold a public trial."
"And because the plaintiff is the young lord, the lord and Madam Ai Fan will also be in attendance."
"In addition, those present included Jin He, the administrative minister of the General Affairs Bureau; Ms. Talia, the deputy director of the Trade Department; Baron Garnier; Earl Hazel; and... Austin, the minority shareholder of the Tree of Life and Rear Admiral of the Fifth Fleet."
Hall put away the long list.
"Why did that thing come?" Pei Ji asked gloomily.
"Because this is a public trial, Master Austin is here on behalf of the Tree of Life Star Network," Hall said. "He has the approval of the Imperial Court, and it's not the Fifth Fleet's patrol period right now."
Pei Ji cursed and shut up before Hall turned on the recording.
"Why not postpone it?" He asked sullenly to Chen Que who was sitting across from him at the dining table, his head tilted down.
Because of the sudden court session, he was finally willing to come out to meet Shen Que and have dinner with him.
At this time, the main course has been removed and the dessert is placed on the table.
The commander propped up his head and said coldly, "I did it on purpose."
"You!" Pei Ji stood up suddenly, and the dishes and chopsticks on the dining table shook and clanged because of his movement.
He pretended to glare at Chen Que fiercely, but the moment their eyes met, his expression softened instantly.
My nose started to twitch and I was about to cry again.
"You can't stay alone anymore, Admiral." His tone was solemn and unyielding. "We can not sleep together, we can not be alone, we can limit the time we spend together, but we must stay in the same room."
Pei Ji's symptoms during the susceptible period were very severe.
Because they are overly suppressed on a daily basis and cannot get the comfort of their partner's pheromones at this time, they have been in a manic-depressive state.
He happened to hear his partner saying she was going to abandon him, and even accidentally bit his Omega.
His emotions at this moment were like a hanging riverbed.
Even a glance at Chen Que can cause one to collapse.
If he continues to suppress it, he might go crazy before his susceptible period is over.
Shen Que's eyes swept over the large and small healing patches on his exposed skin.
The bite on his neck before was only a light scar due to Alpha's strong self-healing ability. Now these were the injuries he caused himself in the past two days.
Reducing guilt and anxiety by hurting yourself.
How come this Alpha is so destructive, whether to others or himself...
Sighing silently, Shen Que said slowly but clearly: "I can use soothing drugs to get through the adjustment period, but we have to stay together."
Pei Ji couldn't suppress the trembling in his voice: "You..."
He took a few deep breaths and resisted the urge to cry: "Do you think I'm a scumbag..."
Shen Que's lips moved: "Yes."
Pei Ji's tears immediately fell when his patience failed.
“I’m… sorry…”
This mouth that talks all day long has apologized countless times.
Pei Ji glanced at Chen Que cautiously, not daring to look too much, nor daring not to look away.
"Are you feeling very uncomfortable? Do you want me to... draw a few more tubes of the original solution and ask Dr. Li to increase the concentration of the soothing agent... Wuuu... Don't hate me... Just for these few days... I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm useless... I'm sorry... Wuuuu..."
"Is an apology useful?" Shen Que glanced at him and said before Pei Ji cried even harder, "You have to compensate me."
Pei Ji sniffed like a small animal.
"What do you want? Jewel clothes... or real estate... I'll have Phil find you a list for this round of the Golden Butterfly Auction... Or do you want to go out for a walk? I have a VIP tour for Blue Planet No. 33..."
