Asamia rested his chin on one hand and casually fiddled with the wild berries on the table with the other.
He peeled off the wild fruit with his fingertips, his gaze fixed on the slowly overflowing red liquid, and touched it lightly.
In an instant, her fair and shapely fingers were covered in sticky juice.
Asamia offered the wild fruit to his friend.
"Where did these wild berries come from?" my friend asked curiously. "They look quite delicious."
"Did the kid who mistook you for an omega give this to you?" the person said, reaching out to take the wild fruit.
Asamia gave him a cold glance, then looked away, took a bite of the fruit, and said, "The little friend gave it to me."
"Go pick them yourself if you want to eat them."
Friend: "..."
Two minutes later, we finished tasting the wild fruit.
"Oh, right." Asamia licked his lips, slowly wiping his fingers with a handkerchief, and said to his friend, "Notify our people to retreat immediately."
My friend asked in surprise, "Now? Why are you suddenly leaving?"
Asamia put down her handkerchief and continued peeling wild berries, saying casually, "Jiang Yichen has spotted us."
"Jiang Yichen is here?!" His friend exclaimed in shock.
Despite his surprise, he still firmly believed in Asamiya's words.
After the news was relayed, a question popped into his head: "How did you know?"
Asamia looked at the wild fruit in his hand. "The little boy told me."
Shi Xi carries Jiang Yichen's strong tobacco and mint scent.
...
Chi Zaiqing squatted at the cave entrance, silently starting a countdown in his mind.
When the countdown reached three, Shi Xi finally appeared.
"Aran."
A bright smile spread across his face. He suddenly stood up and rushed to Shi Xi.
Jiang Yichen also walked over, holding an umbrella made of leaves, to shield Shi Xi from the rain.
Following closely behind, Sheng Yingpu reached out to hold the wild fruit for Shi Xi.
Jiang Yichen glanced at Sheng Yingpu with his dark eyes.
I thought to myself.
That little miser would never give it to you.
Sure enough, the next second, Shi Xi shook her head, tightened her grip on the wild fruit, and said, "No, I can carry it myself."
The cave entrance was less than fifty meters away. Chu Yao leaned against the wall and noticed Shi Xi's gaze.
Chu Yao immediately turned his head away, as if he didn't like him very much.
"..." Shi Xi nudged Chi Zaiqing next to her.
Look at this, and your childhood sweetheart is as sour as a lemon.
"Brother Gao, you're finally back!" Cheng Hao, who came out upon hearing the voice, waved to him.
Chi Zaiqing seemed completely oblivious, but when he noticed that the leaf Shi Xi had been using to shelter from the rain was gone, he paused, then asked with a puzzled expression, "Aran, where's your umbrella?"
"I gave it away," Shi Xi said as she walked towards the cave.
He put down the wild fruit he was holding, sat down by the campfire, and said casually, "I met an omega in the forest and just gave it to him."
Upon hearing Shi Xi's words, the expressions of the others changed slightly.
How could there be an omega in this desolate wilderness?
Standing at the cave entrance, Chu Yao instinctively straightened up.
He frowned as he looked at Shi Xi's back and the group of men sitting around him.
What's wrong with this beta?! She went out for a bit and hooked up with another omega?!
Chu Yao was irritated and wanted to light a cigarette, but as soon as he lit it, he remembered Shi Xi coughing earlier and gave up the idea.
He eventually turned away, deciding to avoid seeing it altogether.
"Omega?" Chi Zaiqing's expression darkened upon hearing this. He looked at Shi Xi, intently watching his expression, "What kind of omega?"
Shi Xi: "Black hair, red eyes, dressed in white, quite tall, also jumped off the starship."
"Do you know him?" Shi Xi asked.
Chi Zaiqing lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then shook his head.
He had never seen an omega like this before.
Jiang Yichen frowned upon hearing this.
With black hair and red eyes, he sounds just like Asamiya.
Jiang Yichen looked at Shi Xi and tentatively asked, "Are you sure you're an omega?"
When Shi Xi heard him ask that, she assumed that he wanted to take the omega back with him.
After all, they are all citizens of the empire, and the other party is a rare and precious omega, so it is only natural to lend a helping hand.
"Hmm." Shi Xi nodded. "I told him it's dangerous for an omega to be here, and I wanted to bring him back, but he didn't agree."
"They said they had contacted their family and insisted on waiting for them to pick them up."
Jiang Yichen raised an eyebrow in surprise upon hearing this.
He had fought Asamiya many times and knew him somewhat.
Asamia hates being mistaken for an omega. If that person were really Asamia, they would definitely get angry and fight with Shi Xi upon hearing this.
This is not in line with Asamiya's style of conduct.
Jiang Yichen gave Cheng Hao a wink.
The next second, Cheng Hao left the cave without a sound.
...
Shi Xi naturally saw this scene, but he didn't take it to heart.
Because this difficult part of the story only features Chi Zaiqing as an omega from beginning to end.
Moreover, the other party's attitude was adamant, so even if Cheng Hao found the person, he wouldn't be able to bring them back.
Chi Zaiqing, on the other hand, seemed particularly interested in this omega, constantly asking what the two of them had talked about and whether the omega was pretty...
Shi Xi assumed he was just curious and, while roasting wild berries, described the situation in great detail.
As for the other question, Shi Xi looked at Chi Zaiqing's delicate and beautiful face.
I thought to myself, you're the main character, the legendary number one beauty omega, how could anyone be more beautiful than you?
"He's not as pretty as you," Shi Xi said truthfully. "Young Master, you're the most beautiful omega."
As if embarrassed by the praise, Chi Zaiqing lowered her head shyly.
He leaned on Shi Xi's shoulder, his fingers excitedly clutching the hem of his t-shirt.
Aran praised me.
He said I was the most beautiful omega.
"You too." Chi Zaiqing wrapped her arm around Shi Xi's. "Aran is the most, most, most beautiful beta."
Mutual praise in business.
Shi Xi thought to herself.
...
"Marshal, it does have the scent of omega pheromones, jasmine-scented. The level is probably not high; the scent is very faint, and you can't smell it once you leave the forest," Cheng Hao said softly.
Jiang Yichen frowned slightly and gave the order in a soft voice, "No matter what, find him."
"Yes," Cheng Hao replied.
Just as Jiang Yichen finished speaking, he heard Shi Xi's words.
He looked at Shi Xi, his dark eyes carrying an inexplicable sense of oppression.
Shi Xi was startled when she saw him like this—
What's the difference between praising the protagonist in front of the main character and provoking him?
The next second, Shi Xi comforted herself—
It's okay. This couple hasn't officially started dating yet, and Jiang Yichen won't cause trouble for me because of a compliment.
Thinking this, Shi Xi silently pushed Chi Zaiqing away and stuffed a roasted fruit into his hand.
