Chapter 73

Xia Yan currently has three unfinished tasks.

They are the main task six: Abandoned by Shen Wenqing; the newly refreshed task seven: Leave the Magic City with Xu Rang... and then disappear secretly. And the important side task: Help the 'Harda' laboratory complete the Omega new form inhibitor.

Arrange the three tasks in order of importance, the most important one is definitely the side task.

Now that the stalker has been caught and his own safety is guaranteed, he should focus on Wen Changming and gradually stay away from Shen Wenqing.

The young man had an idea in his mind.

He glanced at the two silent men, stood up as if nothing had happened, covered his mouth and yawned: "It's getting late, I'm going home."

Since they decided to use a trick together to catch the stalker, Xia Yan has been living with Shen Wenqing for his own safety.

The two of them went in and out together, and their intimate posture made someone extremely jealous.

But now, he used "I" to go home, leaving Shen Wenqing out.

Wu Qin's eyes lit up, and a hint of joy appeared on his handsome face.

Shen Wenqing frowned slightly, pretending not to understand the young man's implication: "Let's go together."

"You must be very tired after running around at the wedding and the bar tonight." Wu Qin took the lead in answering, "Let me drive Xia Yan home."

"Yan Yan and I live together, why bother outsiders?"

"We are all... friends."

Wu Qin used a lot of effort to not spit out the last two words, and he continued with a thick face: "You're welcome."

Shen Wenqing: "..." Friends? Are you worthy?

These two short words caused great psychological damage to both parties.

The fight between the two men did not see blood, but it caused the atmosphere to be particularly tense, as if there was an invisible line that would break in the next second if pulled to the extreme.

The young man stood at the gate, with a slender figure and vigorous vitality.

In his dark pupils, the figures of two people were reflected, and he seemed to be making a decision.

Shen Wenqing added to his own accord without hesitation: "Your house has not been occupied for a long time, and it should be covered with dust. It's so late now, it's not convenient to go back."

The young man turned his eyes to him.

He continued: "Why don't you stay in our house for one night, and then ask the cleaner to clean it tomorrow."

Shen Wenqing's words were reasonable and could not be refuted.

Wu Qin was naturally stubborn in terms of feelings, and he could not compete with the meticulous Shen Wenqing at all. He could only watch Xia Yan being taken away by him.

"..." Fuck!

*

The black car was driving steadily on the empty road. The bodyguards had been sent back. There were only Xia Yan and Shen Wenqing in the car.

After a day of hard work, Xia Yan was already tired.

He fastened his seat belt, tilted his head dizzily, and fell asleep without knowing why. When he opened his eyes, he had returned to Shen Wenqing's school house. He was soaking in warm water, and there was a familiar body temperature behind him.

"Are you awake?" "

Ah? Yeah."

Xia Yan wanted to turn his head to look at the other person, but who knew that as soon as he moved, the man pushed him back. He heard the other person say, "Don't move, be careful of the foam getting into your eyes."

?

Although Xia Yan's eyes were open, his brain had not yet reacted, and his thoughts were a little confused.

He subconsciously touched his hair with his hand, feeling the fluffy and soft touch, and a layer of white frost stained his fingertips. Shen Wenqing... is washing his own hair? ?

The single bathtub is not big, and it is inevitably a bit crowded with two adults in it.

The young man sat on his thighs and was held in his arms.

The bathroom was full of steam, and the mercury mirror was covered with a layer of mist. His body subconsciously became stiff, and he dared not move for fear of an accident.

Shen Wenqing prepared everything for him as if dressing up a doll.

When the two went out together, it was already half an hour later.

The man picked up the hair dryer and blew the young man's short hair carefully. The continuous and steady buzzing sound lingered in his ears. The peaceful and harmonious atmosphere made the young man feel sleepy again.

"Yanyan."

"...Hmm..." The young man uttered a little breath, his eyes half-closed, and he looked obedient and ruan-like, less wanton and ostentatious, and inexplicably well-behaved.

"Do you have to leave?"

"..."

"Isn't it good to live together forever?"

The man's voice was very soft, mixed with the hair dryer, hazy and illusory, as if it was just a casual question, but the face reflected in the mirror was unusually serious.

The young man raised his eyelids, glanced at him lightly, and said nothing.

Silent rejection.

"Yanyan."

The man put down the hair dryer, hugged the man from behind, and gently kissed the young man's cheek.

The mercury mirror reflected the figures of the two people, like vines intertwined with each other, with roots entangled and inseparable.

*

Xia Yan was a little dazed when he woke up. The sticky touch, sore limbs, and red and swollen lips all made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Oh! There was also a large doll, hugging him and sleeping soundly.

The curtains in the room were tightly closed, swallowing up all the sunlight. The dim room could not see the surrounding situation clearly. Xia Yan pushed Shen Wenqing unceremoniously.

The other party moved and shouted in a daze: "Good morning."

Xia Yan opened his mouth and had a lot of questions to ask, but the words just reached his throat and were swallowed back by him. Anyway, he had helped many times before.

It's just... a little intense.

"Get up, we need to go to the police station to take a statement."

"Um... OK." The man's head moved over and kissed him on the face.

Xia Yan pushed the man away and sat up from the bed. He gasped at his sore body and touched the bite mark on his neck, his mouth twitching.

Last night, Shen Wenqing was like a mad dog, full of aggression, biting people everywhere.

And...

fuck! I don't know if it was the effect of the drug, but he fell asleep in the middle of the night yesterday. It seems that he didn't clean his body, and he felt uncomfortable all over.

"I'll go take a shower first." Xia Yan turned on the bedside lamp.

The bright light illuminated the mess in the room. He rubbed his temples, feeling the burning gaze of the man, and his heart trembled.

"..."

What are you looking at!

Xia Yan got out of bed as if nothing had happened and looked for clothes.

Shen Wenqing: "Yanyan has a great figure."

"..." Xia Yan, "You are not bad either."

Shen Wenqing looked at the kiss mark on the shoulder blade of the young man's back, his dark eyes were full of satisfaction, and he scanned the other inch by inch. He asked again: "Really can't you stay?"

"No."

Xia Yan shook his head without thinking.

"Is it not possible to give you 100 million?"

"..." Ah ah ah!!! Why did the protagonist learn to be tempted by money? This can easily ruin the character!

Xia Yan was flustered, but he didn't show it on his face. He turned around and looked the man up and down, pretending to be moved.

"Is it really 100 million?" His attitude softened visibly.

There's a chance!

Shen Wenqing was delighted: "Of course, I can write you a check now." After a pause, he continued to tempt with money, "As long as you are with me, everything I have belongs to you."

"That's really--" That's great.

Before the last three words were finished, the young man seemed to have thought of something, his face suddenly darkened, and he irritably "tsk" all over.

"?"

"Forget it." The young man pulled the corner of his mouth, "The ruby ​​you gave me before has not been processed yet, how much money do you have?"

Private jewelry processing requires a designer to draw the draft, and then someone to polish and make it. The process is extremely complicated, and the shortest construction period is more than a month.

And a fist-sized gem like the one given by Shen Wenqing is so large and pure in color, so it is naturally necessary to be extra careful, and the construction period will be extended.

But...how can a low-level person 'Xia Yan' know this kind of knowledge?

The young man raised his head, arrogantly rejected Shen Wenqing's explanation, and looked at Shen Wenqing, who was 'poor', with disdain, and the four words 'don't bluff me' were written on his face.

Shen Wenqing: "..."

Xia Yan quickly entered the bathroom, turned on the bathroom heater, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The character setting is not broken! The points are saved.

Yeah!

*

Xia Yan was very busy the whole day.

After taking a statement at the police station, hiring someone to clean the house, and moving back, it was already very late when everything was done. A large piece of scorching clouds appeared on the horizon.

Xia Yan lay on the sofa in the living room, holding up his mobile phone and taking pictures of the sunset.

[Beautiful sunset. Picture jpg]

Recipient: Wen Changming.

Wen Changming's reply was as quick as always: [It is indeed very beautiful. I want to see it with you.]

The picture was actually taken quite poorly, with no composition at all. The edge was the Youth Balcony. But... that was taken by Xia Yan.

He took the initiative to send me photos, so why would I want a bicycle?

Xia Yan: [The 'Hairuo' restaurant is not bad. It is located on the 53rd floor. There is a huge floor-to-ceiling window from which you can see the beautiful sunset. 】

Is this... a hint?

Wen Changming probed: [What a coincidence, I just made an appointment for tonight, I wonder if you are free? ]

[I moved today, I'm very tired. ]

Rejected.

"...What am I thinking?" Wen Changming sighed heavily and laughed bitterly. Why did he have the illusion that a young man was seducing him?

Ding Dong!

The cell phone rang.

He looked down.

Xia Yan: [However, I heard that the weather will be good tomorrow, and I happen to be free. ]

[I will reserve a seat for tomorrow. ]

[Okay. ]

Wen Changming was still a little bit unbelievable until the end of the chat.

Xia Yan... agreed? ?

These days, the young man often came to chat with him, mostly talking about some unimportant things, and occasionally asked curiously about Omega pheromones.

He guessed that he was asking about Shen Wenqing.

Because of his medical expertise, Wen Changming was jealous and told him everything.

Occasionally, he would wonder if Xia Yan liked him? So that's why he kept chatting with him? But he was afraid that it was his illusion, after all, he had no sense of boundaries.

But today... Is this a date?

Wen Changming felt a little happy.

"Knock knock!"

There was a knock on the office door, and the secretary's steady voice rang out: "Mr. Wen, Mr. Pickles is outside and wants to see you."

Wen Changming was stunned and put down his phone: "Let him in."

Pickles is a foreigner in his thirties. He wore a wrinkled suit, with stubble on his chin, and looked unusually haggard.

As soon as he entered the room, he went straight to Wen Changming and slammed his hands on the table, making a dull sound.

He said in English: "Wen! My friend, you should take back your stupid decision."

"I'm sorry, Pixar."

"NO! I don't need to apologize, I just want to continue my research." Pixar's eyes widened, his eyes were full of red bloodshot, and he looked painful, "I can't lose it, lose my laboratory."

The new form of Omega inhibitor was invested by the Wen family and developed by Wen Changming and Pixar together.

When Wen Changming decided to interrupt his research, the one who suffered the most was Pixar. He had invested several years in this research, but when he was about to produce results, it was cut off.

Wen Changming also knew that what he did was inappropriate, and even selfish.

"You will get him, I promise."

Pixar: "When? I need an exact time."

"..."

"You can't tell???" Pixar held his head, "I really don't understand why you are like this? What about your dream?"

"..."

Pixar: "You have been avoiding for a long time, Wen, I need a reason. A reason that can convince me to give up."

"This is a bit complicated."

"Okay, I also need someone to help me analyze the situation."

Wen Changming rubbed his temples and told Pixar the situation in a concise manner.

"……"

"…………"

After a long silence, Pixar cursed: "…My God, I can't believe that you made such a stupid decision for a man."

"I love him very much, Pixar."

"You are too selfish."

Wen Changming: "Yes, I understand, so I am willing to take all the responsibility."

"OK! I understand, so now...as long as you pursue the man you secretly love, you can reopen the laboratory? Is that what you mean?"

Pixar has always been a calm person. He felt his determination from the man's brief words.

He knew that it was impossible to point at him, curse him, and let him reopen the laboratory immediately.

In this case, it is better to fulfill his wish.

"Yes." Wen Changming nodded, "To be honest, this is the first time I like someone." After a pause, he continued: "You know, I've never been in love, so there are many things I feel like I'm a little confused about."

"Maybe I can talk to you about it."

"Thank you very much, Pixar."

Pixar is a romantic and passionate Italian who has had rich emotional experience in the past - yes, in the past. Since entering the laboratory, he has become an out-and-out workaholic.

After listening to Wen Changming's description, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with great confidence: "Hey! Wen, this guy is obviously interested in you. You can catch up with him in just one month, no, half a month."

"...Really?" Wen Changming asked uncertainly, "He is very enthusiastic to everyone who is willing to spend money on him." He emphasized, "Everyone."

"You can spend the most money on him." Pixar sincerely suggested, "A boy who worships money is always easier to pursue than someone who doesn't ask for anything."

"I hope so."

"Okay, Wen. Be bold and send roses directly tomorrow. It may be easy to get close to him if you keep pretending to be a fan, but as a friend, you have to let him understand that you are pursuing him."

Wen Changming pondered for a moment: "Okay, thank you, Pixar, I will try."

"I wish you success soon."

Pixar said sincerely.

A beautiful guest came to the 'Hairuo' restaurant tonight.

People ate and stole glances at him. If there wasn't a handsome and elegant Alpha next to him, countless people would have come to chat with him.

The fiery red roses contrasted with the sunset outside the window.

The young man's fair face was stained with a layer of halo by the warm golden sunlight. He played with the flower bud and praised casually: "The sunset tonight is so beautiful."

The man looked at Xia Yan and said word by word: "It is indeed beautiful."

It is unclear whether he was praising the sunset or praising him.

Xia Yan didn't notice this little detail. His mind was full of tasks. After a few false greetings, he subtly changed the topic to the inhibitor of Omega.

"It's really hard to be an Omega. Every time I use inhibitors during estrus, I will have migraines for the next few days. It would be great if a new inhibitor could solve this problem."

Wen Changming had just talked about inhibitors with Pixar yesterday and was very sensitive about this matter.

He subconsciously raised his head and glanced at the young man.

He was seen supporting his chin with one hand, looking at the sunset with a happy and relaxed expression. It should be just a casual sigh, or... is he feeling sorry for Shen Wenqing?

Wen Changming used force with the hand holding the knife and fork, and scratched the bottom of the plate with a harsh sound.

"Huh?" The young man turned his head and looked at him in confusion. This is not something a rich young master who is familiar with etiquette would do.

Wen Changming put down his knife and fork: "Sorry, my hand slipped."

"..."

"I have a very important question to ask you."

Xia Yan was confused: "What?"

The man looked at him steadily, his expression serious and earnest: "Mr. Xia, you are curious about Omega inhibitors, is it because of Shen Wenqing?"

No! It's for the mission.

But he can't say that.

And his words just happened to find a reason for himself, but he can't show too much importance... Because after what happened before, he suspected that the failure of the research on the new inhibitor might have something to do with himself. After all,

the time of announcing the mission was too coincidental.

It happened to be announced when he told Wen Changming that he would not take the initiative to break up with Shen Wenqing. And today's roses also show that he does like me a little.

Although Wen Changming doesn't look like a guy who is hot-headed because of feelings.

But what if?

Xia Yan's eyes moved, and he said casually: "After all, he is my boyfriend, so of course I am a little curious."

It was curiosity, not concern.

Without waiting for Wen Changming to speak, the young man added: "I am more curious about... If the new inhibitor is produced, it should be able to make a lot of money."

He acted like a money-grubber to stabilize his character.

Seeing this, Wen Changming smiled a little more: "Probably."

"Mr. Wen is a doctor. Has he studied this?" "

I have." The word "once"

is wonderful! "

That's amazing." Xia Yan picked up the translucent champagne and clinked it with the man's glass. "I wish you can find results soon."
