When Sui Yuan regained consciousness and sat up in the Body Restoration Capsule, his first reaction was to look at the date — he had to admit that he had certainly been frightened by 5237's explosive allegations of "doing it for a week straight".
Fortunately, the calendar made it clear that it was only the next morning. Training hadn't even occurred yet. It was probably that, although Adonis seemed to have lost all reason, he still managed to maintain some propriety. He didn't actually regard him as an Omega, nor did he do him for a week — he was a Beta after all! He was absolutely a normal Beta who had no special innate talents!
He groped around for his phone. It didn't display any records of Lin Zhan calling him. It seemed like there were no issues on his end. Since his search for suppressants seemed to be progressing like it did in the original plot, Sui Yuan tentatively let out a breath and crawled out of the Body Restoration Capsule to stretch.
His body was completely normal. When he heard the sound of footsteps, he raised his head to glance at Adonis, who was approaching him. Immediately, his face darkened, and he glared at the other with a gaze full of complaints.
When he recalled that thing that had swelled up somewhere inside of him during yesterday's chaos —- that thing that seemed to have been called a "knot" in 5237's data — Sui Yuan itched to whip and flay Adonis to ruthlessly teach him a lesson.
To use a pitiful Beta as an Omega, Adonis, do you want to die?!
Adonis was pinned by Sui Yuan's criticizing gaze. He coughed lightly, feeling awkward. He placed the meticulously prepared breakfast before him and fawned over Sui Yuan with a particularly guilty conscience, "How's your body?"
"The Body Restoration Capsule is truly useful," Sui Yuan answered coldly. He didn't fight his stomach and accepted the breakfast.
"Sorry. I was a bit impulsive last night. Really, the scent on your body was just too good," Adonis sat down and leaned against Sui Yuan, wrapping his arms around his shoulders. He kissed Sui Yuan's neck lightly —- the scar from his heat-induced bite had already disappeared. The Body Restoration Capsule's capability was truly comprehensive. This made Adonis feel just a little bit disappointed.
His Alpha instincts had probably influenced him to desire seeing his mark on the neck of the person he liked, indicating that he belongs to him only.
Sadly, the conditions weren't right for him at present to bite that luscious neck again just to satisfy his own bad taste.
——There would always be another opportunity. He used this thought to comfort himself.
"That wasn't my scent,” when he heard the other mention the scent , Sui Yuan felt sick to his stomach. He raised a hand to push away Adonis, who had been clinging onto him, "That was Lin Zhan's scent."
The person that he liked (?) went into heat because of another person's scent and had gotten aroused. Although the one that had been the target of Adonis' arousal had been Sui Yuan, this still made him feel particularly displeased.
"I know," Adonis looked at the angry Sui Yuan helplessly. Although he was happy that Sui Yuan had finally started to feel and express his jealousy over him, he still felt a bit of a headache over how he should coax his angry sweetheart, "I won't deceive you and say that I didn't feel anything. I'll admit that even though his scent was faint, it really turned me on. However, it was only because the person who carried the scent was you that I didn't control myself and indulged myself in that feeling. If the other person had been Lin Zhan, I would certainly have immediately run far, far away. I definitely would not have let that impulse bamboozle me."
Sui Yuan glanced at Adonis with an appearance of utter disbelief. However, he accepted his words.
Sui Yuan wasn't naive. After spending so much time with him, he had long since known what kind of person Zhao Xihe was. The scent on his body had been very faint. An ordinary Alpha would find it difficult to discern. If Zhao Xihe had really decided to control himself, then he definitely wouldn't have lost himself to his desires like yesterday. Sui Yuan thought that Zhao Xihe had just wanted to try out s.e.x with him in the way of the Alphas but but unfortunately had lost his rationality.
If Sui Yuan was just an ordinary Beta, he would probably be unable to stop worrying about it. However, Sui Yuan was not an ordinary Beta. He and Zhao Xihe were existences from beyond this world. This was but a small part of their lives. Unless it was a big problem that tread on his bottom line, Sui Yuan wouldn't take it to heart. Furthermore, Zhao Xihe was even less likely to be affected by this world and lose his way.
Sui Yuan understood Zhao Xihe's curiosity of wanting to try out something new (?), but for the other to have gone into heat like that made him feel particularly uncomfortable.
"I'm sorry," When he saw that Sui Yuan still looked unhappy, Adonis began to thoroughly reproach himself.
Earlier on, he had been lectured by 0007 who resented him for failing to meet expectations. 0007 said that he had begun to become self-centered again, reverting back to his previous faults of disregarding the feelings of others. At that time, Adonis had been a bit apprehensive. Now, when he saw Sui Yuan's att.i.tude, he hated that he indulged himself in a moment of fun, and wished he could turn back time to stop himself from inciting it.
"I just wanted to try it out. Since you didn't like it, then I won't ever do it again," Adonis pledged solemnly. He gazed at Sui Yuan as if he were an abandoned dog begging for pity.
"The matter had already pa.s.sed. However, it can't happen again," Sui Yuan tried his best to maintain a serious expression. The feeling of bullying Adonis felt especially wonderful. Of course, even when he was feeling great, a lesson must also be taught to Zhao Xihe, "Even so, I don't want to talk to you for the rest of the day."
Adonis looked at Sui Yuan, waiting anxiously as the Beta put on his training clothes. Sui Yuan, however, pulled open the door and left without giving him another glance. Adonis couldn't help but feel rather dispirited.
"…..You forgot to tell him something," A dumbfounded 0007 reminded his host, whose IQ had plummeted just from being ignored by his beloved.
"……What?" Adonis, who had just been wracking his brain on how he could fix his relations.h.i.+p with Sui Yuan, replied absentmindedly.
"Pher-o-mones," 0007 spat out these three syllables one at a time.
Adonis: "………!!!!!!"
Content with having made Adonis restless, Sui Yuan was especially cheerful while making his way to the training center. He had just been mulling over Adonis' pained expression, so he didn't notice the fearful and incredulous expression of the Alphas who had arrived just after him, as if they had just witnessed the heavens and earth being torn apart.
