Chapter 62 Your cufflinks are beautiful.
Guan Ju didn't actually want to make his relationship with Wen Song public right away. It was just that his Alpha possessiveness was kicking in, and he wanted to hear some words from Wen Song to soothe his emotions.
For example, the other party just promised not to meet with Zhao Mingzhuo in private.
He knew better than anyone how fierce the rumors in the industry were. No sooner had Wen Song and Zhao Mingzhuo broken up than news of them getting together spread, and no one dared to say anything about him; instead, there were many rumors spreading about Wen Song.
This situation is, in a sense, unavoidable.
but---
Guan Ju will do everything in her power to stop it, and will absolutely not let Wen Song be burdened with the fabricated accusations of being a "plaything" or deliberately seducing him.
It's unpleasant to hear, unpleasant, and makes it impossible to control one's violent emotions.
"What if he insists on meeting you privately?" Guan Ju asked. "What would you do if he still insisted on meeting you after you refused three or four times?"
Wen Song had never thought about these issues.
In his view, Zhao Mingzhuo was not an Alpha who would be persistent and relentless.
He lifted his eyelids and said, "I'm not as good as you think."
Guan Ju's tone became more serious, "What's wrong with you? You're perfect in every way."
How can someone exude charm without realizing it?
"If Zhao Mingzhuo really does ask me to meet multiple times—"
Wen Song thought about the problem carefully and said, word by word, "I will keep refusing."
"Or if I get pestered to no end, I'll tell you, okay?"
She still had that well-behaved look.
When she asked "Is it okay?", her amber eyes sparkled with anticipation, which was the best possible solution for the emotionally oblivious and seemingly wooden Beta.
"Okay." Guan Ju didn't push his luck any further.
"If he keeps asking you to meet, you can tell me that you can't meet him alone."
Wen Song nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
He was so well-behaved that Guan Ju really wanted to kiss him.
Physiological attraction is the constant desire for skin-to-skin contact and to smell the other person's scent, which provides a sense of comfort and soothes the violent and unpleasant emotions caused by other Alphas.
"Let's go back."
Guan Ju was reluctant to let the person go, but staying out for too long would arouse suspicion.
In addition, chatting in the restroom is not a proper or good place.
“Okay.” Wen Song nodded again.
Just as he was about to turn and leave, he caught a glimpse of a very familiar wallet on the sink.
Guan Ju saw Wen Song suddenly stop and asked, "What's wrong?"
Wen Song pointed and said, "Zhao Mingzhuo forgot to take his wallet."
Guan Ju looked in the direction the other person was pointing and saw an expensive leather wallet sitting alone on the other side of the sink, probably because the owner left in a hurry and didn't have time to take it with them.
It's impossible to notice lost items without seeing them.
There are many people attending the engagement party, and if someone else picks up the wallet and uses the contents to do something detrimental to Zhao Mingzhuo, the consequences could be unimaginable.
The two women had emotional entanglements with Zhao Mingzhuo, but they wouldn't be so cold and indifferent as to ignore him.
Guan Ju did not want Wen Song and Zhao Mingzhuo to meet, saying, "I'll give it to him later."
Wen Song never thought of volunteering to deliver Zhao Mingzhuo's wallet.
After all, Xu Shaoze didn't like him, and since Guan Ju and Zhao Mingzhuo were friends, it wasn't his place to deliver the package.
Even if he found the wallet on his own, he would probably have a staff member hand it over to Zhao Mingzhuo.
“Okay,” Wen Song said. “Then I’ll go back first, in case I take too long and Wen Xu comes looking for me.”
Given his personality, someone who's been out in the restroom for so long would most likely come looking for him.
Guan Ju lowered her eyes: "You go back first."
After Wen Song left, he put one hand in his pocket and slowly walked to the sink.
Zhao Mingzhuo has never changed his wallet over the years; it was a birthday gift he gave to the other person a long time ago.
Its somewhat new appearance proves that the owner takes great care of it and cherishes it.
As soon as Guan Ju picked it up, the other side drooped down automatically, indicating that the wallet was not closed properly. Just as she was about to help close it, she noticed a 4-inch ID photo clipped to the open transparent case.
Upon closer inspection.
I found that the 4-inch ID photo looked somewhat familiar.
He wasn't an Alpha who liked to pry into other people's privacy, but he remembered that Duan Ze had said that Zhao Mingzhuo had been in love with someone for so many years and kept a photo of his crush in his wallet.
In addition, the facial features in the ID photo looked too familiar, and a strange magic compelled Guan Ju to use her slender fingers to take it out from the transparent compartment.
He held the well-preserved ID photo between two fingers, a photo that showed the marks of time.
After taking a closer look at the ID photo, Guan Ju's usually calm expression turned into a furrowed brow and a straight line as his thin lips pressed together.
Two seconds later, she regained her usual indifferent and calm expression and put the ID photo back in its original position.
turn out to be,
The person Zhao Mingzhuo secretly loves is him.
A friend of mine, who is an Alpha, has secretly been in love with him for so many years.
Guan Ju had suspected this possibility before, but quickly dismissed the idea. In her memory, Zhao Mingzhuo had only ever been in contact with or dated Omegas.
Wen Song was the only exception.
I really didn't expect that Zhao Mingzhuo, who frequents the Omega scene, would have a crush on an Alpha.
Guan Ju closed and fastened his wallet, paused for a moment, and then left.
·
Zhao Mingzhuo was a bit tired during his fertile period these past few days, so he let Xu Shaoze and both sets of elders greet the guests at the banquet. He temporarily returned to the lounge, found an inhibitor in his bag, and injected it to control his pheromones, which were about to go berserk.
I just ran into Wen Song in the restroom and now I can't stop thinking about her.
The other person smells very nice.
Despite being a Beta, lacking pheromones, and unable to alleviate the Alpha's fertile period, she frequently appeared in his mind during that time.
Unable to dispel it.
Constantly remind him that he has made mistakes in every step he has taken recently.
But Zhao Mingzhuo felt incredibly pleased when he thought about how Zheng Rong and Qi Sheng had just announced their cooperation because of their engagement, and how his Alpha father's illegitimate son had turned ashen-faced.
The thrill of revenge gradually calmed the irritability, and after injecting the inhibitor, I felt noticeably lighter.
Just as Zhao Mingzhuo threw the used inhibitor into the trash can, he suddenly heard footsteps at the door.
Looking up, I saw it was Guan Ju.
The moment Zhao Mingzhuo saw Guan Ju, he immediately sensed that the other person's mood was somewhat subtle.
Thinking it was an Alpha repulsion, he quickly withdrew the pheromones he had released and asked, "Ah Sui, what brings you here?"
Guan Ju's gaze lingered on Zhao Mingzhuo's face for a second before shifting to the used inhibitor in the trash can.
Finally, he calmly said, "I've come to deliver your lost item."
Zhao Mingzhuo was stunned for a moment: "What?"
Guan Ju handed the wallet he had picked up from the sink to the Alpha sitting on the sofa. His expression was calm, but his narrow eyes were fixed on the Alpha, watching his every move and subtle expression.
really.
When Zhao Mingzhuo saw the wallet, his breath seemed to catch in his throat, and his smile froze on his face for about two seconds before he came back to his senses.
He said, "This is my stuff."
Finally, when I reached out to take the wallet, I grabbed nothing.
“If I remember correctly,” Guan Ju lowered his eyes, turned his wallet over, and said, “This is a birthday gift I gave you five years ago.”
Zhao Mingzhuo felt that Guan Ju was different from usual today; he was now full of hostility and indifference.
“Yes,” he chuckled, as if the person in question had seen through his dirty thoughts that he had kept hidden for nearly ten years. “I’m so used to it that I’m too lazy to change it, and besides, this wallet is pretty good.”
Upon hearing Zhao Mingzhuo lie, Guan Ju did not expose him, but instead threw the wallet in her hand into his arms.
"Check if anything is missing."
How could Zhao Mingzhuo possibly open his wallet and count its contents in front of Guan Ju?
If I open it, wouldn't my secret crush be completely exposed?
How will I explain having my best friend's ID photo on the document?
"It shouldn't be less than that." Zhao Mingzhuo gripped his wallet tightly in his hand, then quickly put it back in his pocket.
He didn't know if Guan Sui had ever opened his wallet and discovered the secret he was hiding.
She desperately wanted to be discovered and have the other person give her a swift resolution, but she also worried that they might not even be able to remain friends afterward.
The situation became awkward at one point.
Zhao Mingzhuo decided to change the subject and move on from the wallet issue.
My gaze was drawn to Guan Ju's lion-head cufflinks.
He recognized the brand.
Personalized customization is relatively niche.
Wen Song had previously given him other custom-made items from this shop as birthday gifts, but the brand was too low-end and he had never worn them.
I never expected that Guan Ju would like this niche private customization shop.
Zhao Mingzhuo used this as a topic to ask:
"Ah Sui, your cufflinks are very pretty. Did someone give them to you as a gift?"
