Chen Ci first boiled a small pot of hot water, and when it was slightly hot, he took the pot off the stove.
They were soaked through by the rain, and since they were outside, it was still quite cold when the wind blew.
Chen Ci took two sips, and the warm water flowed through his esophagus and into his stomach, dispelling the coldness.
Then he handed the small pot to Fu Tianhe.
Fu Tianhe picked up the pot with his free hand, while the knife was still firmly on Mom's neck.
After doing all that, he was quite nervous and thirsty, so he naturally took a sip.
But when his lips touched the edge of the pot, his whole body trembled violently.
Fu Tianhe didn't pay any attention to where Chen Ci drank just now, but now he knows.
The remaining Omega pheromones were captured by the lips, and the sweet fragrance rushed directly into the nose, quickly causing shivers to spread throughout the body and arousing all dormant instinctive reactions.
This is a situation that even inhibitors and masking agents cannot control. The amber wood scent is quickly released at this moment, responding to and longing for the Omega's approach.
Fu Tianhe's mind went blank, and his hands holding the knife were shaking. The sharp blade slashed up and down Mom's neck, leaving tiny bloody marks.
Mo Muminrui sensed Fu Tianhe's instability and seized the opportunity to resist, but heard Chen Ci say, "Don't move."
All of a sudden, all the joints in his body were so stiff that he couldn't move. Mom couldn't even move a finger, let alone turn around and subdue Fu Tianhe.
Mom couldn't understand why he couldn't control his body. He even felt like there were ten thousand mountains pressing down on his shoulders, making it impossible for him to move and even difficult to breathe.
Could it be that these two people possess some kind of witchcraft? !
Chen Ci didn't know what happened to Fu Tianhe.
Is the water too hot? He just drank it and it tasted fine.
Alpha's entire face turned red, even the tips of his ears looked like they were burned. His black eyes were struggling with many complicated things that he couldn't understand, like an undercurrent.
Chen Ci:?
Chen Ci's frankness and innocence made Fu Tianhe feel even hotter. Not only his cheeks, but the real heat was hidden in his body. He could even feel the blood rushing in his veins, rushing to the place that made his scalp tingle.
Fu Tianhe thought back to the days and nights they had slept together. They lay side by side in the not-so-roomy tent, with a polite distance between their sleeping bags. The moon was bright, the stars were sparse, the sea and sky were vast, and the only sound around them was the silence of each other's breathing.
September fell asleep facing him or with her back to him, exuding a faint floral scent that even the anti-bite collar could not suppress, leading him into an endless dream.
She knocked on his door in the hotel corridor wearing only her pajamas, her hair still wet, water falling on her shoulders that were exposed from the wide round collar, sliding down silently.
Or sitting on the back seat of a motorcycle, with my arms tightly wrapped around his waist and my body pressed against his back.
But Fu Tianhe didn't think of anything at that time. He just felt that the wind in front of him was embracing him, and the young man behind him was also embracing him.
The fierce collision of pheromones and the indirect effect of drinking water caused such a violent reaction. Fu Tianhe didn't know whether it was the same for Alpha and all Omegas.
What if, what he touched was not the edge of the pot, but...
Fu Tianhe was extremely stiff. He couldn't control the thoughts that were gradually slipping away in his mind. At the same time, he was also clearly aware that -
He reacted shamefully.
A question mark slowly emerged above Chen Ci's head.
Fu Tianhe's reaction was so strange that Chen Ci looked at the pot in Alpha's hand and realized where he had just drunk.
Chen Ci is not a fool, nor is he a blank slate who knows nothing. His courses in the White Tower include extremely detailed physiology classes, and he may know more than Fu Tianhe.
He glanced down calmly.
Chen Ci: ……………………
Chen Ci silently took the pot from Fu Tianhe to prevent him from dropping it. Faced with an embarrassing situation, the best way is to pretend that he knows nothing.
The scent of amber wood spread in the rain. Fortunately, everyone else was Beta and could not smell the strong pheromone scent.
Chen Ci held his breath. He was a top-level Omega and had a certain resistance to Alpha pheromones, but he didn't want to take the risk of being aroused.
Not to mention that after spending such a long time together, he had already unconsciously gotten used to the smell of Fu Tianhe.
Chen Ci squatted on the ground again, lowered his head to cook, giving Fu Tianhe time to recover.
It took Fu Tianhe more than ten minutes to calm down.
He calmed himself down and realized that the knife in his hand had been scraping Mom's neck, leaving it covered in blood.
Fu Tianhe quickly moved his hand farther away.
During this period, Mom said nothing and allowed Fu Tianhe, who was in an extremely unstable state, to hijack him. The reason was simple: Chen Ci's mental power had been pressing on him, and he could not move.
Fu Tianhe quietly lowered his head, making sure that everything had returned to normal and there was nothing wrong.
Jiu Yue probably didn't know about it, maybe she thought he was scalded by the water?
The more frank Chen Ci was, the heavier Fu Tianhe's sense of guilt became.
The trust that the young man placed in him and the level of excellence that he could only look up to made Fu Tianhe feel that his thoughts were tainted.
On the other side, Chen Ci's rice was ready.
He calmly turned off the engine and started eating in front of everyone in the Mom camp.
If she wanted to eat, she couldn't keep covering herself up so tightly. Chen Ci took off her headscarf a little.
So everyone could see his appearance through the heavy rain.
The rain and distance made everything blurry, but made the scene before our eyes look like an elegant painting shrouded in water vapor.
The young man was wearing a blue and black jacket, sitting cross-legged on the ground. His black hair was soft and stuck wetly to his temples and forehead. It was delicate and white, like fragile porcelain.
The lips holding the chopsticks gradually warmed up from the fire and turned pink again. Although she had a cold expression, one could not help but wonder whether her lips would feel soft when one pressed their fingertips on them.
He wore a plain anti-bite collar around his neck.
...Anti-bite collar???
He is actually an Omega! ?
This boy who almost subdued the entire camp by himself is actually an Omega! ?
Everyone couldn't believe what they saw, and they tried to deceive themselves that it was just a decorative collar.
But the boy's handsome face, which seemed to embody the essence of aesthetics, and his overly delicate hands, were mocking them, telling them to stop deceiving themselves.
Mom was stunned for a moment, realizing where the power that was holding him tightly came from.
This is actually an Omega with psychic powers? !
Omegas are already scarce, not to mention that only the best ones can possess psychic powers. What bad luck have they done to deserve being found by such a capable person?
The other person holding him hostage is most likely an Alpha.
Mom's heart sank: It looked like today was a complete failure.
Fu Tianhe coughed lightly. Since Jiu Yue didn't find anything, he certainly couldn't show it.
He smelled the fragrance of the rice and suddenly felt a little hungry.
"Would you like to eat together?" Chen Ci asked him.
After confirming that Chen Ci would use his mental power to control Mom, Fu Tianhe said yes.
He loosened his hand holding the knife, hung the saber around his waist, came to Chen Ci's side, sat cross-legged like him, and the two of them started eating lunch together.
The only sound in the huge camp was the rustling of rain. Everyone gathered around the open space in the center, keeping a distance of more than ten meters.
Their leader Mom was kneeling there, his neck covered in blood. Even though there was no knife at his back, he was still unable to move.
The two hijackers sat around the fireplace, eating lunch as if no one was around. One was an Alpha and the other an Omega. They were even talking in low voices, as if they were having a pleasant picnic in the rain.
The situation is extremely bizarre.
After eating the warm food, Chen Ci felt warmer all over.
He drank the last mouthful of soup, then took out the pistol from his pocket and played with it boredly.
Fu Tianhe also filled his stomach. He put out the fire, thought for a while, completely untied the mask and wrung out the water.
They probably won't set foot in this area again, so it doesn't matter if they are seen.
Among the many scavengers with disheveled hair and dirty clothes, these two people were unusually clean.
Chen Ci and Fu Tianhe waited for more than an hour, and finally the cover time agreed with Laer passed.
Chen Ci: "Let's go."
Fu Tianhe hummed, put a total of eighty mechanical cores into a box, and held it in his arms.
The two of them left the camp in a swagger in front of everyone.
Of course everyone wanted to catch up, but that invisible energy controlled them, not only their bodies, but also their minds.
They could only watch as the two figures gradually disappeared in the rain, completely out of sight.
I don't know how long it took before the inexplicable power finally disappeared.
Mom fell to the ground with his hands supporting his body. He was sweating profusely. He gasped heavily and yelled, "Chase me!"
Without him saying anything, some scavengers had already picked up sticks and chased in the direction the two men left.
However, all they saw were ruins and no human figures were to be found.
Even the footprints were washed away.
Chen Ci and Fu Tianhe returned to where they had parked their motorcycles.
After getting soaked in the rain, I was soaked all over. My body, which had just been warmed up by the meal, felt a little cold again.
Chen Ci turned his back and took off his coat and the grey shirt underneath. He squeezed them hard, and the rain water soaked through them was squeezed out and fell to the ground.
His back was wet, and the depression of his spine was deepest at the lower back, extending all the way to the coccyx. The dim light obscured more details, but Fu Tianhe still saw the red marks on Chen Ci's waist caused by the elastic band of his pants in an accidental glance, as if they were blooming.
Fu Tianhe's throat tightened and he quickly turned his head away, but the red color was so stubborn that it refused to leave his mind.
When not even a drop of water could condense from it, Chen Ci shook out the clothes vigorously and put them on again.
Fu Tianhe also wrung out his clothes. The sky was gloomy and the interior of the building was even darker. His golden prosthetic eye still glowed with inorganic light.
He looked at the box aside, let out a long breath, and couldn't help feeling excited.
Eighty mechanical cores. That’s eighty mechanical cores!
It came with almost no effort.
"Are you cold?" Fu Tianhe asked.
"Not bad." Chen Ci sat down against the wall. His socks were soaked and it was a bit uncomfortable for his feet to be soaked in water. Chen Ci moved his toes and they were cold and stiff.
Fu Tianhe came to Chen Ci and said, "Yesterday the weather forecast said the rain would stop in the afternoon, but looking at the current situation, it will probably rain all day."
They were trapped here by the rain.
