Chapter 24 24 "Guan Yue, it's your birthday tomorrow,...
"Guan Yue, it's your birthday tomorrow. Let's go out and treat you to a meal together, shall we?" The roommate poked his head out of the bed and said to Liang Guan Yue below, "Have you been so busy with work lately? I haven't seen you come home at night."
Liang Guanyue looked up and said to Du Qi, "I have other things to do tomorrow, so why not today? I'll treat you."
"Hey, how can the birthday boy treat us?" Freya kicked back and slid her chair with wheels to Liang Guanyue's side. "Pick a restaurant you like. Du Qi and I will treat you."
Du Qi said, "Where's John?"
Freya shrugged. "Didn't he just get a new beta? He went on a date right after class today." Then she turned to Liang Guanyue, "By the way, Guanyue, an omega asked for your contact information. I thought she was pretty, so I gave it to her. Is that okay?"
Liang Guanyue glanced at her, then smiled: "It's okay, but don't give it to me next time. I don't have much money to date them."
Freya shook her finger: "No, no, no, this omega is not an ordinary omega."
Du Qi also became curious after hearing this and asked, "Why is it unusual?"
"She's the omega of the Ji family. The Ji family has a very good relationship with the Fourth Prince, and the Fourth Prince is the most popular candidate for the crown prince. What if the Fourth Prince really..." Freya shook her head. "I gave her this because of her background. Guan Yue, did you receive any friend requests?"
Liang Guanyue stopped spinning the pen and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Ji family?"
"What's wrong? You look like you're trying not to laugh."
"Nothing, I just feel we're destined to be together." Liang Guanyue opened his computer and accepted the friend request from the omega named Ji Wenting. Seeing this, Freya patted his shoulder and said earnestly, "I can only help you so far, Guanyue. Don't let me down."
Du Qi nodded in agreement. "It's not shameful to be a gigolo. If I had your face, I'd wake up laughing in my dreams." He whispered, "Besides, most omegas are easy to deceive. For nobles like them, a small amount of money is just a drop in the bucket."
Liang Guanyue laughed twice for no apparent reason and said nothing.
"Don't think I'm useless... I'm just telling the truth." Du Qi said guiltily.
"No, I think what you said makes sense." Liang Guanyue said, "I've chosen a restaurant, let's go."
During the meal, Fu Yunlu asked him if he wanted to sleep in the villa near the school today. Liang Guanyue said yes, but he had drunk some wine and originally wanted his roommate to take him home. If he wanted to go to the villa, he would have to come and pick him up.
"Would you like to drink?" Liang Guanyue turned off the computer and said to Du Qi and Freya with a smile.
Freya and Du Qi looked at each other, seeing the word "hell" in each other's eyes, and hesitated, "Are you sure? Don't you usually dislike drinking when we go out for dinner?"
Liang Guanyue said: "You are celebrating my birthday today, and it has a different meaning."
Freya wiped away the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes. "Our Guan Yue has finally grown up today and is different now. I'm so relieved." She raised her hand and gestured, "Waiter, here, a bottle..."
Liang Guanyue continued, "White wine."
It was around 11 o'clock in the evening. When Fu Yunlu came to pick them up, the three alphas were already drunk. Freya and Du Qi were lying on Liang Guanyue's thighs, while Liang Guanyue was leaning on the back of the chair, drowsy.
"Guan Yue?" Fu Yunlu frowned worriedly and pushed the two drunken alphas away unhappily, wondering how these two brainless people could have gotten a kid like Liang Guan Yue drunk like this. "Guan Yue, let's go home."
Liang Guanyue was indeed a little drunk now, but he was still sober. He probably only drank a few small cups, and he coaxed the other two people to drink the rest.
"Who are you..." Du Qi opened his eyes dazedly and saw someone picking up Liang Guanyue beside him. He grabbed the corner of his clothes and muttered, "Where are you taking Guanyue?"
Fu Yunlu glanced at him through the glasses, and Du Qi tried to open his eyes wide: "Huh? Why do you look so familiar... a celebrity?"
Fu Yunlu pulled the clothes back from his hand with disgust, and quickly left the place with Liang Guanyue.
Fu Yunlu turned up the air conditioning in the car, worried that Liang Guanyue would catch a cold. Liang Guanyue lay quietly and obediently on his lap, her cheeks flushed. Fu Yunlu pulled off his mask, pressed the back of his cool hand against Liang Guanyue's burning cheek, and said, "Will you dare to drink white wine again in the future?"
Liang Guanyue rubbed the back of his hand like a cat and muttered a few words, but Fu Yunlu didn't understand a word.
"You can't even speak." Fu Yunlu amusedly lifted Liang Guanyue's hair from his forehead and rubbed his temples for him. "You can't drink much. Don't drink like this next time."
"Fu Yunlu." Liang Guanyue suddenly opened her eyes, placed her finger on Fu Yunlu's lips, and said, "My glands are feeling uncomfortable right now. Why?"
Fu Yunlu lowered her eyes, not quite understanding what Liang Guanyue was planning to do, and replied, "Gland discomfort? Isn't your susceptible period—"
Before he could finish his words, Liang Guanyue inserted her index and middle fingers into his lips and pressed down on his tongue. Seeing Fu Yunlu's stunned look, Liang Guanyue smiled like a child.
"...Stop it." Fu Yunlu was a little annoyed at first. This action seemed very frivolous to him, but when he saw Liang Guanyue's happy expression, his anger disappeared without a trace before he could even think of the reason that "he was drunk".
He bit Liang Guanyue's fingertip lightly as a warning, then took his finger out, pinched his cheeks and said in a low voice: "If you provoke me like this again, don't blame me for being rude."
Liang Guanyue didn't say anything, just humming and moaning, like he was acting like a spoiled child. Fu Yunlu tentatively touched his gland. With the suppressant patch, no wonder he couldn't smell the pheromones. He asked, "It's a little hot, is it because of the alcohol?"
"elder brother……"
"Very bad?"
"Hmm..." Liang Guanyue whispered, "Am I going to die?"
Fu Yunlu raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "Yes, you are going to die, are you afraid?"
"...Woo." Liang Guanyue's eyes instantly filled with tears, and he pursed his lips tightly. Fu Yunlu was also startled by this. She stroked his face in a panic and coaxed him gently, "Baby, I'm just kidding. How could you die when I'm here?"
"If I die, I just... can't bear to leave you." Liang Guanyue turned around, hugged Fu Yunlu's waist with both hands, buried her face in his waist and abdomen, and complained, "Anyway, you won't be reluctant to leave me... That's why you smile."
Fu Yunlu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "You bit my gland, and I did everything I could to you that night. How could you think I could bear to leave you?" He combed his fingers through Liang Guanyue's hair, as if coaxing a newborn baby. "Guanyue?"
Liang Guanyue bit his stomach. Fu Yunlu hissed, leaned back, and pinched the flesh on his cheek: "Such strength...are you really biting?"
"My glands are uncomfortable." Liang Guanyue tilted her head slightly, revealing a pair of emerald green eyes as she looked at Fu Yunlu, complaining aggrievedly, "Fu Yunlu, my glands are uncomfortable."
Fu Yunlu couldn't help but frown in pain when he looked at her like this: "Didn't I just want to ask you? You've obviously entered the susceptible period - but didn't you say that this year's susceptible period is over?"
"I don't know." Liang Guanyue sniffed, "I haven't been feeling well these past few days. I don't know...why?"
Luckily, he had put on a suppressant patch. Fu Yunlu pinched the bridge of his nose. He had been forced to get through his last susceptible period by taking suppressants, so he hadn't felt well for a long time since then, as if he could fall back into susceptible period at any time. He had to put on the suppressant patch every day just in case.
My susceptible period is abnormal and I cannot get through it simply by using inhibitors because of drug erosion. Why is Liang Guanyue susceptible again?
"Guan Yue, have you ever had your glands injured before? Or been injected with anything weird?"
Liang Guanyue shook her head, then nodded as if remembering something: "... being bitten on the glands by a bata, does that count?"
Fu Yunlu remembered that Liang Guanyue had been molested by a beta teacher on that planet. Even though he thought a beta's bite wouldn't cause any substantial damage to the gland, anger still surged in his heart. He said coldly, "How dare he bite your gland?"
In reality, the man was only obsessed with getting close to his glands, and he wasn't willing to bite down. Liang Guanyue still remembered when he pretended to agree to his coercive pursuit with the intention of murdering him. This Bata happily hugged him and said many stupid things. He had forgotten many of them, but there was one sentence that Liang Guanyue remembered very clearly.
He said, "Guan Yue, Guan Yue, you are simply the most beautiful sculpture in this garbage dump. It's a pity that being an alpha gives you some flaws." He laughed and said, "But it doesn't matter. In my hands, you will become perfect."
He needed to find some excuses to dispel Fu Yunlu's doubts about his susceptible period. He began to tremble all over and whispered, "I, I had the same dream again a few days ago. When he bit my gland, I started to feel uncomfortable after waking up. Woo... I was so scared..." He clutched Fu Yunlu's clothes, "Brother, brother..."
"Don't be afraid, I'm not afraid anymore." Fu Yunlu hugged him distressedly, "You are now in the main city of the Federation, a student at Stro University, and you still have me, okay?" He wiped away Liang Guanyue's tears with his fingertips, "With me here, no one dares to do this to you."
"But...but..." Liang Guanyue choked, "You will still treat me like this..."
Fu Yunlu was stunned.
"I hate you." Liang Guanyue looked at him, tears streaming down her face, her eyes red as she said to him in great pain, "I hate you, Fu Yunlu."
"..." Fu Yunlu opened his mouth, but nothing came out. What kind of emotions should he be feeling right now? He should think Liang Guanyue was being overbearing, that he was greedy, and he should be mocking this child who hadn't yet entered society: You probably haven't figured out your place yet. You're just a thing that I can kill at any time.
He should have responded like this.
But he just silently wiped away the tears on Liang Guanyue's face and said softly: "I won't treat you like he did. We're almost home. Let's inject a tube of inhibitor first, okay?"
Fu Yunlu wondered if he'd been too busy lately and hadn't slept well, which was why he felt a bit tired when he carried Liang Guanyue back to the bedroom. Later, he realized that Liang Guanyue was now taller than him. While the difference was minimal, it was normal to feel tired after dragging such an alpha home.
While comforting himself in this way, he went to the drawer to look for inhibitors, and from time to time he glanced at Liang Guanyue on the bed to see how he was doing.
But this is his bedroom, so naturally there is only the inhibitor he uses - this inhibitor is a type that he asked the research institute to develop specifically for him. The drug is too strong and has side effects on alphas with normal glands.
Fu Yunlu rubbed his forehead. He remembered that he had asked Ji Shun to prepare some inhibitors and put them in Liang Guanyue's room, so he turned and went to Liang Guanyue's bedroom next door.
He opened the door, went to the desk, opened the cabinet and took a look, only to find that one of the drawers was locked.
Liang Guanyue mentioned to him during a casual chat that after he differentiated at the age of sixteen, the school gave him a few inhibitors for free, but because he put them in the desk in the classroom and did not keep them with him, later a person who differentiated into an omega took advantage of his absence and smashed them all.
"In our place, becoming an omega is considered unfortunate," Liang Guanyue said calmly. "Sometimes I think if I became an omega, I might not have the chance to come to the main city. That person already has a grudge against me and is delusional that someone like me will become an omega, so he can then trample me under his feet."
"It's a shame, I became an alpha, and he became the gender he hated the most," Liang Guanyue said. "When I saw the debris of inhibitor residue all over the floor, I should have done something to retaliate against him, but when he burst into tears and cursed me, just because I was an alpha, I suddenly lost all interest in revenge."
"But later, I developed the habit of keeping the inhibitors in a safe place."
The memory ended here. Fu Yunlu shook the lock and sighed helplessly. She could only wake up Liang Guanyue and ask him where the key was.
As soon as he turned around, he saw Liang Guanyue standing at the door, staring at him intently.
Fu Yunlu didn't know why cold sweat broke out on his back. He subconsciously took a step back and inexplicably remembered the time when his gland was bitten.
Sometimes you have to trust those sudden, powerful intuitions. Most people think they're an illusion, but they could very well be your future self's regret for the present moment. This regret has traveled through time and space, returning to the past and surfacing in your mind, telling you then—this is a trap, please choose another path.
In the future, when Fu Yunlu learned that Liang Guanyue and the Second Prince had joined forces and that he had been completely defeated, he would often think of this day. He did not believe that he had completely lost the struggle for power and would always make a comeback in the future. Fu Yunlu was just feeling sorry for himself, and even the reason for hating Liang Guanyue was so ridiculous.
Now Liang Guanyue opened her arms, her fair cheeks still a little flushed, and she curved her eyes at him, like a pretty but fragile porcelain doll.
He smiled and said, "Brother, I feel very uncomfortable and want to hug you. Can you come to me?"
Under his gaze, Fu Yunlu took a step back and gradually walked towards him.
