Zhao Yexi didn't give up. This thing was not only available in supermarkets, but also in convenience stores and pharmacies. He still had a chance.
Xiaofen stood in line in front of them and didn't leave after paying the bill. She waited for him at the door. It was obvious that she was still not satisfied and wanted to continue chatting with him.
Zhao Yexi said: "Let's add WeChat and talk next time."
The implication is: I have something important to do today.
The pinkie scanned Zhao Yesi's QR code and asked, "Where do you live now?"
Zhao Yexi told him the name of his neighborhood. Xiaofen said, "What a coincidence! I live across the street from you. Did you drive here?"
Zhao Yesi had a bad feeling: "Walk."
"Me too! Then let's go together?"
“…” He admitted that there was a gambling element in his investment, but he didn’t expect that he would lose so badly.
Zhao Yesi looked at Lu Huangzhi who was paying the bill for help, but Lu Huangzhi had an expression that said, "It's all right, I have no objection."
Zhao Yesi was forced to bow to reality: "Okay."
When Xiaofen was in school, he was a chatterbox. He always liked to talk to Zhao Yexi in class. Zhao Yexi and he were punished to stand together several times. Now he is still a chatterbox, and he is even more chatty.
When talking about work, Xiaofen learned that Zhao Yexi worked at the ABO Research Institute. She thought he knew a lot of inside information and couldn't wait to ask, "When can I buy the omega inhibitor?"
"It's only been a matter of one or two months."
“Will it be expensive?”
"No, the government provides subsidies." Zhao Yexi asked, "You differentiated into an omega?"
"No, no, no, it's my wife who differentiated into an omega." Xiaofen burst into tears when she talked about this. "I didn't differentiate, I'm just an ordinary person. I don't have pheromones, and there's no way to temporarily mark her. Last time she said she didn't want to go to the hospital for an IV and asked me to help her through the susceptible period. I almost died of exhaustion at home."
Zhao Yexi sympathetically said, "No wonder you look so weak. Think positively, you're much luckier than those whose wives differentiate into alphas."
Lu Huangzhidao: "It's also luckier than men who get married and then differentiate into omegas."
Xiaofen was moved and said: "Thank you, I am comforted."
After the emergence of a second sex, the government strongly advocated for delayed marriage and childbearing, urging people to wait until after the differentiation age to avoid awkward situations. Some also proposed surgically removing the gland, allowing those who didn't want to differentiate to return to normal life. However, the emergence of a second sex is controlled by specific genes. Experimental teams have performed gland removal surgeries on mammals, and the glands grew back shortly after. Researchers are not giving up and are searching for other solutions.
Xiaofen and Zhao Yesi chatted all the way until they parted at the gate of the residential complex. Zhao Yesi perfectly missed the pharmacy and convenience store and said sadly, "Finally, we're leaving."
"We can hold hands now." Lu Huangzhi moved the shopping bag to his other hand and used his free right hand to hold Zhao Yexi's left hand.
Zhao Yesi's palms soon began to sweat. The neighborhood was very quiet, with only the occasional night jogger passing by, but Lu Huangzhi didn't let go of his hand.
Zhao Yesi's face was steaming as he said, "Lu Huangzhi."
"Um?"
"Does this count as a date?" Zhao Yesi waved his hand, causing Lu Huangzhi's hand to waver as well. "Eating, watching a movie, shopping... that's a date, right?"
"You think so?"
Zhao Yesi thought for a moment and said, "I think so."
Lu Huang smiled: "That's it."
Arriving at Zhao Yesi's house, Lu Huangzhi said, "I'm going to take a shower first."
"Ah, so fast."
"I smoked a cigarette this afternoon, so I might smell a little bit like smoke. I'm afraid it might bother you."
Zhao Yesi asked: "Why do you always smoke when I'm not around?"
Lu Huangzhi took off his sports jacket and said, "Why would I smoke if you were here with me?"
Zhao Yesi admired her boyfriend's abdominal muscles for a while, and said, "Give me the clothes. I'll put them in the washing machine now. They will be washed and dried in two hours."
He wanted Lu Huangzhi to wear his clothes, but unfortunately his height did not allow it.
Lu Huangzhi said: "Thank you."
"By the way, Lu Huangzhi." Zhao Yesi lifted up his T-shirt and patted his belly and said, "Look, I have abdominal muscles too."
He wasn't just talking about wanting to be a macho man. Before his internship, he'd go to the gym every week to lift weights. Although he didn't lift much in the biceps department, he did develop some abdominal muscles, barely visible to the naked eye.
Of course Lu Huangzhi knew that the junior high school student had abdominal muscles. He had looked all over his body when they were at the B&B. He also knew that he had a mole on the side of his waist.
"I can't see clearly," Lu Huangzhi said, "Come closer?"
Zhao Yesi walked towards Lu Huangzhi and said, "Next time if you're unhappy, you can also touch my abdominal muscles."
"Then I'm very unhappy now." Lu Huangzhi put his arm around Zhao Yexi's waist, brought him to the bed, and pressed him under him.
Zhao Yexi asked, "Aren't you going to take a shower?"
Lu Huangzhi said: "Zhao Zhitao."
"Um?"
"We're going to do it later, you know."
Zhao Yesi was stunned for a moment, then whispered, "I know. If you want to do it, just do it. I won't disagree. Why did you say it out loud? It's embarrassing."
Lu Huangzhi said, "I'm afraid you'll think we're doing an experiment again. It was okay before, but I can't stand that kind of grievance now."
Zhao Yesi glared at him: "Do I look like I haven't figured it out yet?"
Lu Huangzhi laughed, lowered his head and kissed him again and again, which made him feel a little itchy and wanted to laugh.
But soon he couldn't laugh anymore. Slightly cool lips brushed across his eyes, cheeks, and the corners of his mouth, lingered for a moment around his glands, and continued down to his abdominal muscles.
Zhao Yesi said in a trembling voice: "What are you doing?"
"You let me touch it, baby."
"I let you touch it, but I didn't let you eat it."
Zhao Yesi was completely speechless after hearing what happened next. He stared blankly at the ceiling with his eyes open, not daring to look at Lu Huangzhi at all.
Fortunately, he took a shower when he returned home from the institute to put his things away.
Suddenly, Zhao Yexi's mind went blank. Love is a light, so beautiful, guiding them to the future they want.
Lu Huangzhi stood up and said, "I'm going to take a shower and rinse my mouth."
Zhao Yesi slowly loosened his grip on the quilt, and his breathing gradually calmed down.
His consciousness returned, and he thought of something important. What was the point of doing all this? Without props, he still couldn't finish it.
Unlike beta females, omegas have a higher chance of conceiving during their susceptible period because their reproductive cavity is easily accessible. With the help of an alpha male, this can also happen during non-susceptible periods. Therefore, any sexual activity involving the reproductive cavity can result in pregnancy.
Zhao Yexi didn't dare to take any chances. He accepted his new body and the fact that he was gay, but he forgot about getting pregnant. Regardless of whether he would accept a large belly, he and Lu Huangzhi had just confirmed their relationship, and since they were both young, it was too early to consider such things.
At this point, there is only one way.
Zhao Yesi picked up his phone - food delivery apps can deliver more than just food.
He found the nearest convenience store and discovered that what he wanted was among the top three sellers. There were several types to choose from, and he didn't understand why. He chose the one with the highest sales, and bought a few bottles of mineral water as a cover. Finally, he added a note: "I'm dying of thirst. This is urgent. Waiting online."
When the time comes, he will close the shop after receiving the takeaway, and hide his achievements and fame. After all, the merchants and the takeaway boys don’t know who he is.
Lu Huangzhi came out of the shower, wrapped in a towel, and said, "Guess what your... smells like."
Zhao Yesi said in horror: "It won't still taste like Zhizhi Peach."
That's a bit scary.
Lu Huangzhi smiled and said, "Next time I won't rinse my mouth and let you taste it yourself."
Zhao Yexi said, "Or I can taste yours to see if it tastes like grapefruit?"
It would be best if I could delay a little bit until the takeout is delivered.
"It's the same if you try it somewhere else." Lu Huangzhi leaned in and kissed him, his mouth filled with the refreshing minty toothpaste. This time, it wasn't a one-time kiss, and Zhao Yexi felt a little short of breath.
Zhao Yesi tried to push Lu Huangzhi away: "Wait."
Lu Huangzhi grabbed his wrist and stopped him from pushing: "Hmm?"
After washing off the scent blocker, the alpha's pheromones were released unrestrainedly. Lu Huangzhi's eyes were different from usual, deep and sexy.
Zhao Yesi felt a little dizzy and said, "It's such a beautiful day, how about we play a game to cheer ourselves up?"
Lu Huangzhi's expression changed slightly: "You must be kidding me."
He could tolerate one accidental interruption, but if it happened again he really didn't know what he would do.
Seeing that Lu Huangzhi was about to go berserk, Zhao Yesi had to confess: "My family doesn't have that. I...I don't want to get pregnant."
Lu Huangzhi: “…That’s it?”
"What do you mean by 'that'? This is a very serious issue."
Lu Huangzhi patted Zhao Yesi's head soothingly, leaned over and picked up the wallet on the bedside table, and took out a small package from the wallet under Zhao Yesi's astonished gaze.
"I have."
"Fuck, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Zhao Yexi said angrily, "Do you know how I spent the past hour?!"
He's almost tangled into a spiral, the kind that could fly up to the sky if he turns around.
Lu Huangzhi smiled and said, "You didn't ask me."
"How would I know you would carry it with you?" Zhao Yesi noticed something. "You actually carried it with you? You're a pervert."
Lu Huangzhi readily admitted: "Yes, I am."
Lu Huangzhi calmed Zhao Yesi's anger in his own way. One of his hands was busy, so he could only use his mouth to tear open the package.
"Look carefully this time, baby." Lu Huangzhi bent down, "Am I wearing it?"
“…”
The delivery guy delivered the food to the destination at the fastest speed in his career. After ringing the doorbell several times without receiving any response, he called the customer.
The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up. The delivery guy said, "Hello, your takeaway has arrived."
The guest's voice was low and deep, very attractive: "I'm a little busy, you can just hang it on the door handle, thank you."
