Chapter 9 Touch
Qin Shi came to the sofa, reached out and poked the blanket covering someone, with a serious expression.
Li Yuqing was afraid of thunder to begin with, and was startled by the sudden strange touch. He shouted a few times and threw a few random punches through the blanket, but he didn't hit anyone and ended up exhausting himself.
"Oh."
At this moment, a light laugh was heard in the living room, as if mocking his cowardice.
Li Yuqing understood that someone was playing a trick on him. Who else could be in this house besides him? Without a doubt, it was Qin Shi!
He angrily threw the blanket off his head, and the light from above his head suddenly poured into his eyes, illuminating his world. The next second, the expressionless face also appeared in front of Li Yuqing.
Li Yuqing fiercely asked, "What are you doing?!"
The boy was wearing black silk pajamas, his soft hair was messed up by the blanket he had just covered himself with, his cheeks were flushed, probably because he was stuffy inside, and his eyes were staring at him, with the teardrop mole at the corner of his eye very obvious.
Because of the posture he had just stood up in, Li Yuqing was kneeling on the sofa, with his upper body straight, his slender calves and white ankles hanging behind him, and his body was very close to him.
Qin Shi stood upright with one hand in his pocket, just looking at the beta in front of him without answering him.
The alpha scent in his body had not yet completely dissipated due to the release in the room just now. Now some of it lingered in the air and directly touched the person in front of him.
But this beta was completely unaware of this. He was surrounded by the alpha scent and was still talking to him like this. If he were an omega, he would probably be forced into heat as soon as he smelled it and would cry for mercy.
Qin Shi's Adam's apple rolled, his eyes drooped, and he pinched his right hand hidden in his trouser pocket with 70% of his strength, forcing his barbaric thinking to turn in a civilized direction.
He never thought so before. Not to mention Beta, he was not interested in Omega. He would not even look at them, let alone think about them in that way.
It seems that he still needs to take some medicine to control his brain which has been led astray by others.
Qin Shi glanced at him, then turned around and went to the refrigerator to get a bottle of iced mineral water. He unscrewed it and took a sip to suppress those strange thoughts.
Li Yuqing felt puzzled. Why was this person like this?
The thunder outside the house had disappeared at some point, the rain had stopped, and everything returned to its previous calm.
Li Yuqing looked outside and saw that there was no more thunder. He got down from the sofa with relief, rolled up the blanket he had been using and put it back in the cabinet.
He had just come downstairs to eat instant noodles and drank half of his Coke. Before he had cleaned up the dishes, there was a thunder. The loud thunder frightened him so much that he ran directly to the sofa, hurriedly pulled out a blanket and hid himself.
Growing up, the thing he feared most was thunder. To him, lightning on rainy days was particularly scary. He always felt that it would strike him directly, and he had no sense of security at all.
Every time there was thunder and lightning, Li Yuqing would find something to wrap himself up, blocking out sight and sound, and then he would feel less scared.
When he was a child in an orphanage, whenever there was thunder and lightning, he would be frightened and cry and tremble constantly. He wanted to be hugged and comforted by the director and the aunt, but no one paid attention to him. No one would hug the children here.
The little boy could only hide secretly in the cupboard by himself and wait for the thunder and lightning to pass. He would often fall asleep in there by then. When he woke up, the director and the aunt found him and scolded him, saying that he should not hide secretly by himself as it would add burden to others.
Li Yuqing didn't understand. She didn't understand why she would be scolded even though she was afraid and hid. She felt very aggrieved and stood aside as punishment, crying.
No one comforted him, so he could only wipe away his tears with the back of his hand and tell the dean that he would be obedient and would never hide again next time.
When he grew up, he left the orphanage, worked to earn money, studied hard and got scholarships from school. He was no longer the child who could not support himself. He no longer had to listen to others and could hide whenever he wanted during thunder and lightning.
Li Yuqing walked to the dining table and brought his finished instant noodles and half-filled Coke to the sink. After hesitating for a moment, he picked up the cup of Coke and brought it to his mouth, wanting to drink it all.
"Just throw away what you can't finish. No one will say anything to you."
Qin Shi noticed it. He walked to Li Yuqing, said something briefly, took the cup of Coke from his hand, poured it into the sink neatly, and placed the cup in the sink.
As if he felt that this was not in line with his personality, Qin Shi glanced at Li Yuqing lightly, then took his bottle of mineral water and left.
Li Yuqing stood there in a daze, turned his head to look at his tall figure as he left, then shifted his gaze to the cup in front of him, and an inexplicable bitterness surged in his heart.
No one has ever told him that he can throw away what he can't finish. Does he still have the right to be so willful in this world?
He silently washed the bowls and cups and put them away one by one. When he walked up the stairs, he couldn't help but look at the closed door.
The characters in the book seemed to be different from what he had imagined. Whether it was Qin Shi or Lin Mu, they all had their own personalities.
They are the protagonists of their own world. They do whatever they want and don’t care about other people’s strange opinions. They are very determined in their hearts. They are who they are and cannot be replaced by anyone.
Li Yuqing was so envious and he also wanted to be that kind of person.
Here, the world is colorful, and it seems that everything is acceptable. So can he be himself?
He turned off the lights in the living room, returned to his room, threw himself onto the soft and comfortable big bed, collapsed his body and slowly closed his eyes.
It was late at night, and water droplets were sliding down the window. Qin Shi stood there, tilting his head back and drinking the bottle of mineral water. The icy water droplets on the outside of the bottle slid down and flowed down his arms, and the alpha pheromones also poured out.
What happened to him today? Why did he touch that person, pour out that person's Coke, and say some incomprehensible words?
Qin Shi is not a nosy person. As a high-level alpha, controlling pheromones and one's own behavior is a compulsory course for them. He has always done well in this regard, but today he violated the principles he has always followed.
That night, neither of them felt very peaceful.
