Chapter 36.1

The bathroom floor was black and gold. The color of red on the snow-white skin was an unsightly scene. Gu Xi didn’t really bleed that much but the blood mixed with the soap foam looked quite frightening. There were only two words in Rong Jing’s mind: murder mystery.

He had already come across these things before and it wasn’t that surprising that the plot had still been trying to return to its original state.

With trembling hands, Rong Jing took out his phone and dialed 120¹fyi, 120 is the emergency number to call an ambulance in china. He walked over to see Gu Xi’s condition as he continued to wait for someone to answer his call. Gu Xi was covered with foam from his head to toe yet every inch of his body still looked beautiful. He didn’t even seem like a real person at the moment. He looked like a mermaid that was just about to turn into a foam.

A faintly discernible feeling of temptation came down once more, as if sucking, pulling his soul out of him. He could especially feel it in the air. The bathroom was filled with an alluring smell. Rong Jing’s eyes gradually turned a little red, the pheromones in his body seemed to be awakening.

He didn’t have this world’s common knowledge at all, and so he didn’t know that when an Omega was in heat, even their blood was alluring. Though its effect was only mild, it had already made the entire small space full of inextricably connected sparks.

With a little fuel, it could explode in any second.

Rong Jing’s fingers touched Gu Xi’s back, making this fragile beauty try to stand up immediately even though he was still feeling very dizzy. He propped up himself with one hand but fell back on Rong Jing like a pitiful leopard.

Before Rong Jing’s brain could even begin to think, his arms had already reacted, catching Gu Xi, afraid that this extremely weak body would get hurt. Gu Xi’s appearance looked different from the usual. His eyes carried indifference. It almost seemed like it had no trace of any emotion and yet somewhere, it revealed a trace of madness and ferociousness.

He glanced down at the person beside him and remembered instantly the original description of Gu Xi in the novel: Red plum lips, snow white skin, slender but not awfully thin, every part of his body looked perfectly in place.

It was right. He couldn’t agree more.

However, Rong Jing didn’t dare to look at him longer. He turned his head away so he could stop looking at Gu Xi. He clasped his fingers tightly, reminding himself of Gu Xi’s condition and that he must calm himself down. 

Gu Xi could feel that Rong Jing’s heart was unwilling but his body honestly showed what it wanted. He smiled, feeling proud after this little mischief. He bent down, facing Rong Jing’s Adam’s apple.

Rong Jing jumped up in shock. Doesn’t Gu Xi know that this place may seem unremarkable, but it’s actually a weakness for most men? One shouldn’t bite it so casually!

Rong Jing’s eyes were bloodshot. He badly wanted to slap away this person in front of him, but remembered that this person was Gu Xi, an Omega that would vomit immediately when having an encounter with an Alpha. How could he use violence against such a person who still tried to continue living life with laughter even with such circumstances?

He said, “Calm down… Calm down, remember what my gender is..” I’m clearly an Alpha!

Rong Jing wanted to shake Gu Xi out of his befuddled state but he obviously couldn’t snap out of it. As soon as he tried to grab his arm to push him away, he saw the blood, and thought that it was the source of the bloody foam.

He couldn’t guess what could possibly have grazed his skin that badly. Maybe it was because his skin was just too delicate. The large area of red looked scary against his snow white skin.

Rong Jing tried to remind and warn Gu Xi, saying that he knew he was like this because he was in heat, that he needed to control himself and that he can win against this. However, Gu Xi didn’t stop, and even tried to attack Rong Jing’s lips, an action that signified that he didn’t care what the other person was saying.

If this had been Wu Fuyu, Rong Jing would have already punched him down two or three times. Rong Jing dodged awkwardly, his clothes now a mess with all the dodging.

He struggled to keep his innocence, trying his best to push this weak-looking person but was actually extremely difficult to deal with.

In the middle of that pushing and rejection, Rong Jing was able to properly look at Gu Xi’s outstretched arm. His actions suddenly stopped abruptly. Seeing a lot of holes shocked him.

This is caused by injecting the inhibitor, isn’t it? Just how many did he use just to resist the effect of his heat? Gu Xi wasn’t just sitting by the lake because of an artistic conception at all. Something must have happened to him.

“It’s so painful.”

Rong Jing’s dodging stopped. He stared at the naked Gu Xi covered with beads of blood, the holes surrounded by the color violet and blue. He didn’t want to ask him what had happened to him. After experiencing something painful, he didn’t want this person to remember the bad things that had happened. It was no different from torturing him.

With those three words that he spoke, Gu Xi finally stopped moving.

A drop of liquid fell on Rong Jing’s face. He couldn’t tell whether it was water from Gu Xi’s hair or…

Rong Jing wiped off the water, not caring whether the other person had made a mess, and wanted to ask about his situation. However, Gu Xi suddenly let him go. He sat down, curled up his legs and buried his head in his arms. Signs that showed he was refusing to communicate. 

Rong Jing didn’t notice that after he said those three words, the trace of madness from Gu Xi’s eyes receded. He had finally snapped out of his stupor. As he warily looked around his surroundings, he found Rong Jing pressed underneath himself. He felt like his whole world had suddenly collapsed. Will Rong Jing hate him and think that he’s a slvt?

Gu Xi no longer wanted to speak, and Rong Jing couldn’t even find the right time to speak either.

Their current situation was a bit awkward, yet inexplicably intense.

Rong Jing also thought that he had somehow been placed in a predicament. He went out of the bathroom where things easily happen, almost looking like he was being chased, closed the rickety door, and ran without stopping towards the farthest room. He gasped heavily after closing the door. His shirt had already been untucked and unbuttoned. He didn’t need to look at a mirror to know what he looked like. It seemed like he was also in heat.

What overwhelmed him the most were the several images that flashed through his mind, all of which were of that soft, snow white skin. It was so alluring to the point that he forgot that it belonged to a male. He used to think that a person with beauty that transcends gender could never exist, but now that has changed.

Rong Jing glanced down. He had already been admiring, but it seemed like that thing down there felt more than him.

No, no, this isn’t me. This is just the pheromones in my body working.

Though he was a man who had never been in love in his two lives, he could still feel desire. He wasn’t an ascetic monk. The land has been dry for over twenty years. It would be abnormal if his body didn’t respond.

But the other person was a man.

No. An Omega.

But that Omega was also a man.

Rong Jing felt confused and couldn’t think about it carefully. He pressed the excited brother below. You wanna take advantage of others and harm others? Dream on, you little punk.

With a straight face, he thought, all alphas are beasts. Including me. He remained restless, the air that he was letting out was hot but the influence of the pheromones on him still remained. He paced the room for more than twenty minutes, quietly leaning against the door, waiting to hear any sound that could come from outside the room.

There was no movement. It was quiet. It seemed like Gu Xi had stayed inside as well.

What do I do now?

He had hoped that after what happened, Gu Xi would finally feel afraid of him and try to escape by himself. Staying and coming to him would be like stepping out of the wolf’s den and into the tiger’s den.

However, Rong Jing also thought of Gu Xi’s figure in the rain and the hand that had pulled him, as if asking for his help. He heaved a sigh and looked down at the little brother below: Please. Behave.
