Chapter 73 I am indeed in a relationship
Wen Song had no idea that the two Alphas brushed past each other downstairs in the apartment building, that Zhao Mingzhuo would go to the hospital because he couldn't find him, and that the other party would come to his place to kill him, and in the end, he didn't show up to stabilize the situation.
After Guan Ju left, he took a shower and lay in bed. His mind was a mix of excitement about Song Lanxue's upcoming surgery and emotional turmoil caused by Guan Ju's kiss.
The calm and indifferent state that once made him seem uninterested in everything is gone forever.
Wen Song felt that he seemed to have changed.
It slowly comes back to life from a dried-up piece of wood.
No longer as lifeless as before, she would occasionally laugh and joke. When she first arrived in Suicheng, she was unfamiliar with the place and everyone around her was full of malice, but she endured the humiliation because of Song Lanxue's medical expenses.
Fortunately, those words were too trivial for him.
Wen Song seemed to have thought of something, picked up his phone, and opened WeChat.
He saw a message Zhao Mingzhuo had sent him a few hours ago: "I'm at the hospital. The doctor said you've transferred Grandma to another hospital. What happened?"
Wen Song never expected Zhao Mingzhuo to follow her to the hospital.
In the previous two years, Zhao Mingzhuo could count the number of times he had visited the hospital on one hand. He knew that the two had a contractual relationship, so he never felt that visiting Song Lanxue was the other party's responsibility.
But why is it that now that the agreement has been terminated, Zhao Mingzhuo seems like a completely different person, abandoning his Alpha pride and chasing after him even when he wasn't replying to messages?
Wen Song opened the input method panel and replied to a message:
[The agreement is over. I don't want to take advantage of you. Besides, you're already engaged, and I also have someone I like. To avoid causing trouble, we can communicate via text. There's no need to meet in person.]
I'm afraid he'll misunderstand.
Moreover, Xu Shaoze really likes Zhao Mingzhuo and seems absolutely intolerant of her meeting with her ex in private.
A proper "ex" should be as good as dead.
Wen Song left after sending the message.
He didn't delete Zhao Mingzhuo as a friend because Zhao Mingzhuo had been kind to him in the past.
One should not "cross the river and then destroy the bridge"; it is enough to make things clear.
Zhao Mingzhuo is a smart man; after seeing what he said, the other party should stop bothering him.
Wen Song found Guan Sui's chat interface and sent a message.
[Ode]: Have you arrived home yet?
It took him about forty minutes to shower and lie down, and it should have taken Guan Sui about half an hour to get back to her place from the apartment. At this time, the other person should be home a little while later.
really---
【S】: Just arrived.
[S]: Aren't you asleep yet?
[Song]: Getting ready to sleep.
Wen Song remembered what Wen Xu had said: you can't be too boring in front of someone you like. She racked her brains for a bunch of comforting, considerate, and heartwarming words, but finally just said dryly, "You should get some rest too."
[S]: I'll rest after the meeting.
【S】: I'll tell you when I'm going to sleep.
Wen Song was provoked by the last sentence.
Others might not think much of it, but to him, it always felt different.
In Wen Xu's words, a person who truly likes you will want to share what they are doing with you all the time. In the purest moments of love, they can even chat while applying shower gel in the shower.
There is a feeling of being valued.
Wen Song sensed that Guan Ju valued her from his behavior.
No wonder he felt that Zhao Mingzhuo and Guan Ju were different. With the former, their relationship wasn't really romantic, while with the latter, she only wanted to be in a relationship with him. Their perspectives were quite different.
Perhaps because he hadn't replied for too long, Guan Ju sent a "Goodnight".
Wen Song lightly moved her fingers and replied with a goodnight.
[S]: Go to sleep. Goodnight.
The chat history was filled with the sweet feeling of being in love.
Neither of them wanted the other to end things.
Wen Song realized for the first time how cloying she was.
He reached out and patted his feverish face.
Without replying to Guan Ju's message, he turned off his phone, put it back on the bedside table, and closed his eyes to rest.
·
I woke up the next morning.
Wen Song did not receive a reply from Zhao Mingzhuo.
Perhaps the other person thought he was right, so they chose to skip even a private chat.
That would be excellent.
Wen Song didn't know how to talk to Zhao Mingzhuo. Previously, they had a contract, and the other party was his client. The things that needed to be done were all based on the other party's wishes, but they rarely had any private contact.
Unless Zhao Mingzhuo calls him to the Silver Lake Mansion.
"Wen Song, what are you doing?"
Guan Sui's cool voice came through the phone.
Wen Song was getting water at the company's break room when he answered a call from Alpha.
"Make coffee," he said, phone between his head and shoulder, water glass in one hand and water dispenser button in the other. "What did you just say? Go on, I'm listening."
Guan Ju: "I just said, are you free to keep me company during my susceptible period in a few days?"
Wen Song paused slightly as he stood up.
Seeing that he didn't speak, the Alpha asked quite frankly:
Is it convenient?
When Guan Ju asked for help, Wen Song, as her partner, naturally wouldn't refuse.
However, Betas lack pheromones, making it difficult for them to soothe the restless emotions of Alphas during their susceptible period.
However, it is more effective than cold, hard inhibitors.
Long-term use of pheromone suppressants can lead to pheromone buildup and the development of immune antibodies, especially in top-tier Alphas. These Alphas have higher pheromone levels and longer susceptibility periods and greater needs than ordinary Alphas. Inferior Omegas cannot soothe their pheromones, let alone withstand the high-level pheromones from Alphas.
Unless they are highly compatible Omegas or Betas unaffected by pheromones.
But the best is Omega.
Wen Song is a Beta. In physiology class, he learned the true principle of the mutual support and assistance between Alpha and Omega. It is nothing more than Alpha, as a natural leader, marking his partner.
Betas do not have pheromones and cannot be tagged.
"Is it inconvenient?" Guan Ju asked.
"It's okay if it's inconvenient."
“I can use inhibitors.”
"That's my situation—"
Wen Song then came to his senses.
Place the coffee on the table, stir it with the stirrer, pick it up, and take a small sip.
It smells very good.
“There’s no inconvenience,” he said.
Guan Ju pressed further, "Is there some concern?"
Wen Song pondered for a moment, then continued stirring the coffee with the stirrer, saying in as calm a tone as possible:
"I just don't know what to do."
He knew that Alphas had a vulnerable period, but Betas and Omegas were different, so he should always make some preparations.
I haven't experienced it.
I don't really understand.
He even felt a little nervous when he heard Guan Ju suggest that he stay with her during her vulnerable period.
A long time ago, when he was still with Zhao Mingzhuo, Guan Ju said that he had a problem with pheromones and that she felt they were more compatible in this respect, hoping to maintain their relationship.
They are not currently under contract, and the obligations they are fulfilling are not those of business partners, but rather those of a real couple.
Wen Song was a little worried that she wouldn't do a good job.
“You don’t need to do anything,” Guan Ju’s cool voice held a hint of amusement. “Leave everything to me.”
"I'll be ready by then, so does that mean it's okay?"
Wen Song nodded subconsciously, but remembering that Guan Ju couldn't see them while they were on the phone, he cleared his throat and answered in a very soft voice while stirring his coffee:
"OK."
The call ended with Guan Ju saying she needed to go to work.
Wen Song put her phone back in her pocket, took the stirrer to the tap to rinse it quickly, and was about to leave the break room to return to her workstation with her coffee in hand.
At that moment, I happened to run into an Omgea colleague named Xiao Liu.
They get along alright and occasionally talk at the company.
Xiao Liu greeted him first: "Brother Wen".
Wen Song is twenty-five years old this year, which is not particularly old in the company, but he joined earlier than Xiao Liu and is a year older, so the other party calls him "brother".
He smiled and nodded at Xiao Liu.
Holding the coffee, I tried to pass by to leave.
"That—" Xiao Liu suddenly called out.
Wen Song stopped and turned her head away, puzzled.
Xiao Liu scratched his head sheepishly: "Brother Wen, are you... in a relationship?"
After saying that, realizing that asking the question between the two of them was a bit presumptuous, he quickly waved his hand and said, "I didn't mean to pry into your privacy, I just think you seem to be doing quite well lately, Wen-ge."
Wen Song caught the key point: "Status?"
Xiao Liu nodded vigorously: "He can smile now."
Wen Song: "......"
I suddenly remembered that Wen Xu said the same thing about him.
Wen Xu said that his relationships with Zhao Mingzhuo and Guan Sui were completely different.
"Sorry, sorry." Xiao Liu felt it was quite presumptuous.
"It's nothing," Wen Song admitted. "I am indeed in a relationship."
Xiao Liu had a "I knew it" expression on his face.
Wen Song returned to his workstation and suddenly remembered that he had just told a colleague about his relationship. Unsurprisingly, the entire department would soon know he had a girlfriend.
...They had previously said they wouldn't officially announce their relationship and would keep it a secret.
never mind.
Anyway, nobody knew it was Guan Ju.
Wen Song took another sip of coffee and continued working.
