Chapter 58 Chapter 58 Are you angry?
After closing the small suitcase, Fu Xu squatted on the ground, his fingertips gripping the edge of his phone. The photo on the screen was still lit. Chen Louchen's black suit was particularly eye-catching under the bright lights. The white dress of the Omega next to him was like a blooming flower, stinging his eyes sore. Tears fell one after another on the floor, forming puddles of water stains. He raised his hand to wipe his face, but the more he wiped, the wetter it became. Even his breathing was trembling with sobs.
"I can't cry anymore..." Fu Xu sniffed, wiped the tears from his face with his sleeve, and slowly stood up.
He had to leave quickly and couldn't wait for Chen Louchen to come back, otherwise it would only be more embarrassing. Walking to the entrance, Fu Xu picked up his phone and took out the number of the driver, Uncle Liu. Chen Louchen had asked Uncle Liu to pick him up several times before, so he saved the contact information.
The phone rang three times before it was connected. Uncle Liu's slightly tired voice came from the other end, mixed with the sound of a child crying: "Hello? Is this Madam?"
"Uncle Liu, I'm sorry to bother you so late..." Fu Xu's voice still had a nasal tone, and he tried to keep it as gentle as possible. "I'd like to trouble you, could you please take me out?"
"Oh, this..." Uncle Liu sighed, his voice full of apology. "Ma'am, I'm so sorry. My son suddenly has a fever of 39 degrees Celsius. I'm about to take him to the hospital. I really can't leave. Can...can we wait until tomorrow morning? I'll pick you up early in the morning?"
"Fever?" Fu Xu's heart tightened, and he immediately put his own affairs aside and said hurriedly, "It's okay, it's okay! Uncle Liu, take the child to the hospital immediately, don't delay! I'm fine here, really, you don't have to worry about me, just take good care of the child."
The Shen family's drivers work 24 hours a day. Although they can go home and rest when they have nothing to do, they have to rush to the scene immediately when the client calls. Since the salary is very high, naturally there are many people who do this job.
Uncle Liu kept thanking him on the other end of the phone, but Fu Xu was slightly distracted.
He was a little envious of the child who could get all the love from his parents.
After hanging up the phone, Fu Xu sniffed his slightly sour nose and stood in the entrance hall holding the phone. The only sound in the empty living room was his own breathing.
He lowered his head and felt his pockets. There were only a few dozen yuan in change. It was the little cash left from his last trip to the veterinary hospital. He remembered that he had used the secondary card Chen Louchen had given him to buy review materials and snacks these past few days. He would have to pay back all this money later. Taking a taxi to that unfamiliar neighborhood would cost at least a hundred yuan, which he couldn't afford at all.
Furthermore, the streets at night were too dangerous for Omegas. Previously, an Omega had gone out alone late at night and was affected by the pheromones of a strange Alpha, and almost got into trouble.
Fu Xu bit his lower lip, turned around, dragged the suitcase to the side of the sofa, and put it down gently.
The wheels of the suitcase scraped across the floor, making a slight sound that was particularly clear in the quiet house.
Fu Xu walked to the sofa and sat down, curled up his legs, and rested his chin on his knees. He thought, forget it, I'll just make do with it for one more night. When tomorrow morning comes, he will slowly look for it and he will eventually get there.
The lights in the living room were still on, the food on the table was completely cold, and the time on the microwave was ticking from ten to eleven, and then to twelve.
Fu Xu felt a little stiff at the back of his neck and his body temperature was slowly rising. He thought he had caught a cold from crying too much, so he wrapped himself tightly in his beige home clothes and fell into a deep sleep leaning on the sofa.
In a daze, he seemed to hear the door opening, the crisp sound of a key turning in the lock, and a familiar smell of red wine wafted in.
Chen Louchen stood in the entrance hall, his black suit jacket stained with dark red wine stains, his tie askew, his usually meticulous hair a little disheveled, his hair hanging down in front of his forehead, covering a little of his golden pupils, and he was holding a briefcase in his hand.
The air was filled with the sweet pheromones of the strange Omega, but they were completely suppressed by the smell of his own red wine, leaving only a trace.
"Why are you sleeping here?" Shen Louchen's voice was anxious.
He was originally at the Lian family's birthday party. The Omega from the Lian family deliberately poured red wine on him and released pheromones to try to stalk him, but he just wanted to get back quickly. He thought that Fu Xu had finished his exams today and had said she would cook for him. He was afraid that if he was late, he would make everyone wait anxiously.
There are other ways, but this is Fu Xu's first major exam in his life, how can he not participate? This is the flower he cultivated with his own hands.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw Fu Xu curled up on the sofa, covered with only a thin blanket. His face was as pale as paper, and even his lips were bloodless.
Chen Louchen paused at the entrance, his gaze suddenly tightened as he swept across the sofa, he took a few steps over, and placed his palm directly on Fu Xu's forehead.
"Why is it so hot?" The scorching heat in his palm almost burned through his rationality. Chen Louchen's voice changed. "Why is the fever so severe? Why didn't you call me?"
Fu Xu was startled by the warmth of his palm, her eyelashes trembling, and she opened her eyes. Seeing that it was Chen Louchen, her body subconsciously shrank to the corner of the sofa.
He didn't expect Chen Louchen to come back, and he didn't expect him to touch him so closely. The scene in the photo was still turning in his mind. The smiling face of the strange Omega and Chen Louchen's action of not pushing him away made him feel sour and scared.
"Are you feeling unwell? Do you want to go to the hospital?" Seeing that he didn't say anything, Chen Louchen became even more anxious and reached out to pick him up. His fingers touched Fu Xu's arm, but Fu Xu gently dodged them.
Fu Xu lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes casting a faint shadow under his eyes, and his voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzz: "I'm fine..."
He wasn't hiding on purpose. He had actually had a slight fever in the past few days, and each time it was gone after a good night's sleep. He thought this time would be the same, but he didn't expect the fever to be so severe.
Chen Louchen's hands froze in mid-air, his brows furrowed even tighter.
He thought Fu Xu was angry with him for coming back late, so he said, "Sorry, I'm late."
Fu Xu moved his fingertips, without looking up, just feeling very tired.
Seeing that he still didn't speak, Chen Louchen didn't force him anymore. He turned and walked to the entrance, took off his wine-stained coat, and threw it on the sofa. He didn't care about his clothes at the moment. His mind was full of Fu Xu's body temperature. Then, he took out a paper bag from his briefcase, which contained a cup of milk tea. The wall of the cup was still warm.
"For you." Chen Louchen handed the milk tea to Fu Xu and said softly, "Last time you passed by that milk tea shop, you said you liked it."
He remembered very clearly that the last time they went to the snack street, Fu Xu liked this. Today, when he came back from Lian's house, he deliberately walked around two streets to buy this cup of pearl milk tea. Fortunately, it was not closed yet, but it was also packing up its stalls. In the end, Chen Louchen spent ten times the price to have someone make another cup.
Fu Xu's eyes fell on the milk tea. In the transparent cup, black pearls sank to the bottom of the cup, and a little steam was still coming out. His heart skipped a beat, and his fingers unconsciously clenched the sofa towel, but he did not reach out to take it.
Chen Louchen's fingers pinched the cup. He thought Fu Xu was still angry, so he inserted the straw and handed it forward, with a hint of pleading in his tone: "Can you take a sip? It won't taste good if it's cold."
Fu Xu raised his eyes and met Chen Louchen's golden pupils. There was no annoyance or perfunctoriness in them, only full of worry and a little bit of imperceptible nervousness, like a child who was afraid of making him unhappy.
The ice in my heart seemed to be melted a little by this cup of milk tea. My fingertips moved, and finally I reached out and gently took the milk tea.
The warm wall of the cup touched his palm, and the warmth slowly spread to his heart. He bit the straw and took a sip. The sweet taste spread in his mouth, but he didn't feel sick of it.
Seeing that he had drunk it, Shen Louchen's tense shoulders finally relaxed a little, and he sat on the sofa next to him, not getting too close for fear of making him uncomfortable.
After a moment of silence, Chen Louchen took out another small box from his briefcase. It was not very big, a black velvet box that looked very delicate.
"I have something else for you." Chen Louchen pushed the box in front of Fu Xu and gently touched the edge of the box with his fingertips. "This is for you to celebrate the end of your college entrance examination."
Fu Xu didn't want to talk much, as the back of his neck was throbbing with pain. In the end, Fu Xu just opened the box.
A contract lay quietly inside.
Shen's Equity Transfer Agreement
Fu Xu raised his eyes and looked at Chen Louchen inquiringly, but Chen Louchen took out a pen from his clothes and handed it to Fu Xu: "Sign it."
67% of the shares is just right. Fu Xu is not suitable to take all the responsibility alone now, so he will take it. As for the rest, I just hope Fu Xu will be happy.
What the Fu family gave him in the past was too little, and some things could not be compensated, but he hoped to help Fu Xu be happier.
"For... me?" Fu Xu asked softly.
"Yeah." Shen Louchen nodded, "Do you like it?"
Fu Xu shook his head. He liked it very much, but it shouldn’t be given to him.
In fact, Mr. Shen is a very good person. Even if he doesn't want him anymore, he still gives him so many things. It's just that he has no reason to want these things anymore. They should all belong to Mr. Shen's real omega.
"Mr. Shen..." Fu Xu spoke, but didn't know what to say next.
Chen Louchen's eyelashes trembled: "Still calling me like that?" He is still angry, right?
Fu Xu's lips moved slightly, but he couldn't utter those two words. After a long while, he pushed the box away and said, "No, it's over."
"Are you, angry?" Chen Louchen knew that he was asking a question he already knew the answer to, but he still couldn't help wanting to hear the answer from Fu Xu.
Fu Xu shook his head. He had no reason to be angry.
He just felt a little uncomfortable, as if his whole body was wrapped by something, making it difficult for him to breathe and his neck hurt terribly, especially since Chen Louchen was half-squatting in front of him. The strong smell of Burgundy red wine floated in the air, becoming stronger and stronger, as if it was going to wrap him up and almost suffocate him.
"What's wrong with you?" Chen Louchen was startled and picked up Fu Xu. "Let's go to the hospital now."
"I don't want to, let's go to the hospital." Fu Xu climbed up Chen Louchen's neck with both hands. His consciousness gradually became blurred, and he relied on his intuition to stabilize Chen Louchen's Adam's apple.
He seems to be...something is wrong now.
Chen Louchen couldn't help but stroke Fu Xu's exposed skin, and a strong floral fragrance instantly burst out from Fu Xu's body.
