《Postnatal Care of a Sow》 Chapter 1 - Professor She Was Knocked Down by the Sow Chapter 1: Professor She Was Knocked Down by the Sow Translator: Ruriko The pig in Ruan Bai¡¯s laboratory was lost. The whole school knew it. Originally Ruan Bai wanted to hide the thing from his tutor, but people from Security Office and Logistics Department, all came out to help catch the pig. The whole campus was full of screams and laughter. Ruan Bai begged them to show mercy. ¡°Be gentle! Easy! She just gave birth to a baby pig. Lay your hands on her gently! Don¡¯t frighten her! ¡± But no one listened to him. Everyone wanted to kill the pig and stew it. She smashed the chicken house of the Poultry Department and destroyed the experimental field of the Forestry Department. She was simply like a bully. All people thought that this pig would play the bully just like this, but no one expected that she was no longer satisfied with the lower creatures and began to attack the higher primates. She directly knocked down several students who had just finished classes in the Law School, and then the students bumped against Prince Charming She Yuan, a male teacher of the Faculty of Law, who had just walked out of the door. Yuan She rolled down directly from the second floor. Fortunately, the guarding beast showed up, saved its master¡¯s life, shocked and stopped the evil pig. Ruan Bai rushed over and joined forces with several junior fellow apprentices to put the pig into the cage regardless of the cry of the sow. He asked his junior fellow apprentices to carry the pig back to the laboratory, then dealt with the aftermath, paid the victims¡¯ medical expenses out of his own pocket, bowed to the people of the Poultry Department and the Forestry Department for apology, and left his contact information to them to make compensation after they calculated their losses. The only one that had not been compensated was She Yuan, the teacher who suffered the most. Yuan She¡¯s guarding snake stood triumphantly in his side, sticking its scarlet tongue out, staring at all creatures around with the cold eyes, and some omegas¡¯ guarding beasts around it were trembling with fear. Ruan Bai dared not release his guarding beast, since even he was scared, let alone that little coward. So he could only fight back the fear and come up to Yuan She. He was calculating in his heart how many pigs he would have to sell so that he could make it up to Mr. She. Chapter 2 - Dave, Ruan Bai鈥檚 Guarding Beast Chapter 2: Dave, Ruan Bai¡¯s Guarding Beast Translator: Ruriko Asocial though Ruan Bai was, he knew Professor She Yuan, i.e., the youngest professor in the Faculty of Law, who became really famous due to the Omega Protection Act in those years. However, surprisingly, he did not work as a lawyer after graduation as a doctoral student; instead, he became a teacher in his university. However, the gold always shines wherever it is. His classroom was always full of students. On the one hand, he always gave excellent lectures; on the other hand, he was really handsome. She Yuan with S-level genes was superior to others on appearance, stature, intelligence and physical power. He looked unapproachable because of his indifferent temper. Ruan Bai was really afraid of that cold giant snake as well as Professor She with an oppressive aura. But he had no choice now for he had asked his junior fellow apprentices to carry the sow back, leaving only himself here. He really regretted that he didn¡¯t carry the pig back with them. He walked as slowly as he could. But nearly ten minutes later, Professor She did not show a trace of intention of getting up. Sitting and waiting on the ground, She Yuan was just like a sly old man planning to blackmail. However, even sitting on the ground, She Yuan was full of offish aura, as if saying ¡°keeping away from me¡±, with no trace of being in a difficult position. The snake next to him strutted in borrowed plumes, behaving with unbearable insolence. When Ruan Bai moved to about half a meter away from She Yuan, Ruan¡¯s guarding beast with a strong sense of justice jumped out! Just as others said, ¡°the most terrible one is not a powerful enemy but a foolish teammate¡±. He understood it this time. His guarding beast, a little pig, was rushing towards She Yuan in a majestic way, intending to fight for Ruan Bai. When the little pig rushed into the arms of She Yuan, Ruan Bai gasped subconsciously. Other people¡¯s guarding beasts were willing to sacrifice themselves in order to protect their masters, while Dave, Ruan¡¯s guarding beast was so good at messing things up and put Ruan in trouble. Sometimes Ruan Bai really doubted that Dave was a spy from the enemy. Ruan clearly heard Professor She who always kept calm let out a muffled groan, so he felt extremely sorry and trotted over to help her teacher to his feet. ¡°Teacher, are you all right?¡± She Yuan, who was almost knocked over by Dave, was curious about on what kind of food the owner fed the pet pig to make it so strong. She Yuan held Ruan Bai¡¯s hand tightly and stood up, as if without Ruan¡¯s help, he would fall down again in next second. He leaned on Ruan Bai¡¯s body, with his arm wrapped around Ruan¡¯s neck, enjoying the good smell of Ruan Bai, an Omega. Ruan Bai boasted the smell of milky sweetness that made She Yuan want to taste. Enchanted by the Alpha¡¯s overpowering pheromones, Ruan Bai had to adjust the isolation bracelet to the highest gear so as to calm down. But the scene that the serpent swallowed Dave really scared the hell out of Ruan. Ruan Bai in She Yuan¡¯s arms turned to She, with the pleading look in his eyes, ¡°Teacher, look at your snake! My¡­ my pig!¡± She Yuan rebuked the serpent in a low voice, ¡°Doctor, you can¡¯t eat it.¡± She and his serpent were in a standoff for a while, and then the serpent named Doctor spat Dave covered with its saliva out. Ruan Bai really wanted to hug his poor pig, but Professor She¡¯s body pressed against his, without the sign of leaving. ¡°Teacher, you¡­ Can you stand up? Dave is trembling with fear. I need to comfort it.¡± She Yuan said without change of his look, ¡°I can¡¯t, since I fractured my leg.¡± Chapter 3 - I Will Take Good Care of You Chapter 3: I Will Take Good Care of You Translator: Guy Gone Bad Ruan Bai was just an Omega. He didn¡¯t know what an Alpha with the S-level gene meant. At this moment, he just felt that he shouldn¡¯t have skipped classes of the anthropology in the past. He wanted to tell his former Anthropology teacher that Alphas were not as strong as they were cracked up to be in the textbooks; in fact, they were as fragile and vulnerable as delicate flowers. ¡®Although Professor She¡¯s face remains impassive, he must be in pain because he has a bone fracture. But for the sake of his dignity as an Alpha, he has to pretend that he is all right. I think the social stereotypes of Alphas should be abandoned. Can¡¯t Alphas cry for the pain? Don¡¯t they need to be comforted? Are Alphas necessarily stronger than Omegas? Alas! They seem to live a difficult life. Thus it can be seen that we Omegas live better than Alphas,¡¯ he thought. Ruan Bai took She Yuan¡¯s hand and said, ¡± Mr. She, you can rest assured that I will take good care of you.¡± She Yuan had got full marks in the final Anthropology examination. But now he had no idea whether Omegas had an inherent shortage of intelligence. But he was satisfied with the result, so he nodded, ¡°Okay. Thank you.¡± Hearing the conversation between She Yuan and Ruan Bai, all people around regretted not keeping a bully pig. It seemed that they would have the opportunity to approach Professor She as long as their guarding beasts rammed into Professor She. With his heart filled with guilt and sympathy for She Yuan, Ruan Bai said in a sincere tone, ¡°Mr. She, shall I take you to the hospital first?¡± She Yuan didn¡¯t agree. ¡°No. There¡¯s no need for me to go to hospital. I want to go home first.¡± Were Alphas all keen on face-saving? He had a broken leg, but refused to go to the hospital. Ruan Bai grabbed She Yuan¡¯s arm, stood on tiptoe and whispered in his ear, ¡°Mr. She, don¡¯t be afraid that you will lose face. I will pretend to accompany you home. When they are gone, let me take you to the hospital, okay?¡± Ruan Bai¡¯s breath caressed She Yuan¡¯s neck and his soft lips accidentally grazed She Yuan¡¯s earlobe, which made She Yuan feel ticklish. She Yuan smelt the heavy scent of milky sweetness from Ruan Bai again, and this time he recalled the first cake he had eaten in his childhood. Although it was sugary, he wanted to eat another piece. She Yuan didn¡¯t understand why Ruan Bai thought that he was afraid of losing face. But if Ruan Bai could accompany him home, he would think about this advice. She Yuan was a little bit charmed by Ruan Bai¡¯s soft voice. He hesitated for a moment and nodded, ¡°Okay.¡± ¡°Please wait a moment, Mr. She. I¡¯m going to put Dave back in my optical computer.¡± Ruan Yuan paused for a second and explained, ¡°Dave is my guarding beast. I¡¯m so sorry he rammed into you just now. He¡¯s silly, but he¡¯s really a good pig. He didn¡¯t mean to hurt you.¡± She Yuan nodded and signalled for Ruan Bai to deal with his guarding pig. When Ruan Bai came to Dave, he was shocked by the scene: the giant snake wrapped its long body around Dave, sticking its scarlet tongue out and licking Dave¡¯s face, while poking Dave¡¯s belly with its tail. Dave was too scared to move, with a look of desperation. Ruan Bai pointed to the two beast and complained to She Yuan, ¡°Mr. She, look at your guarding beast! ¡± He was like a child complaining to his kindergarten teacher about his deskmate robbing him of his snacks. She Yuan was pleased that Ruan Bai seemed to think of him as a trustworthy person. He ordered Doctor to let go of Dave, but Doctor was unwilling. She Yuan went over and whispered to Doctor, ¡°Not now. Be patient.¡± Doctor slowly loosed its grip on the lovely pig. Dave immediately ran over and hid behind Ruan Bai. Ruan Bai held Dave in his arms and complained, ¡°Alas, you are a troublemaker!¡± After comforting Dave for a while, Ruan Bai finally put his guarding beast in his optical computer. He turned around and was surprised to see She Yuan standing at a little distance from him. ¡°Mr. She, have your leg healed?¡± he asked. Just as the words fell from his lips, She Yuan collapsed into Ruan Bai¡¯s arms. ¡°No, it still aches.¡± Chapter 4 - We Are Too Close Chapter 4: We Are Too Close Translator: Guy Gone Bad ¡®Mr. She must have fought really hard to keep standing posture just now. If he has healed, he wouldn¡¯t have collapsed into my arms,¡¯ Ruan Bai thought. With one arm around She Yuan¡¯s waist, Ruan Bai walked She Yuan off the teaching building. Then he followed She Yuan¡¯s instructions to the parking lot. ¡°Mr. She, which is your car? Let me drive you home.¡± She Yuan¡¯s jeep was about a metre away from him. He cast a glance at the car with an indifferent expression on his face, and then looked down at Ruan Bai in his arms with narrowed eyes. ¡°Sorry, I don¡¯t have my car with me. So, we have to walk back.¡± ¡°Ah? Walk back?¡± She Yuan nodded affirmatively, ¡°I have a flat in our school¡¯s family dormitory building. It¡¯s not far away. We can go there directly.¡± Without hesitation, Ruan Bai left the parking lot with She Yuan. The two men walked slowly towards the family dormitory building. As a superior Omega, Ruan Bai had an attractive face. Even though he stayed in the laboratory all the year round, he was still popular in the school. They two hugged each other and walked across the campus. Students who saw them were all stunned. However, Ruan Bai didn¡¯t notice that because he was only focused on She Yuan¡¯s broken leg. She Yuan frowned discontentedly, unbuttoned his coat and enveloped Ruan Bai in it to insulate him from the stares of people around. Ruan Bai didn¡¯t have a boyfriend because he was always obsessed with scientific researches. So he hadn¡¯t ever had a close contact with any Alphas. Or rather, he hadn¡¯t ever walked hand in hand with any men. With his face against She Yuan¡¯s chest, Ruan Bai smelled the Alpha¡¯s overpowering pheromones. His ears reddened at once and he even let out a groan. ¡°Ah~¡± She Yuan seemed not to notice Ruan Bai¡¯s physical changes, and asked, ¡°What¡¯s the matter with you?¡± Ruan Bai raised his hand and tried to push She Yuan away. ¡°Mr. She, you¡­ We¡¯re too close.¡± She Yuan explained, poker-faced, ¡°You are too short. I will feel uncomfortable and can¡¯t walk smoothly if I keep you at arm¡¯s length.¡± Ruan Bai raised his head and realized that he was much shorter than She Yuan. With resignation, he nodded. ¡®Anyway, Alphas¡¯s physical qualities are much better than Omegas¡¯. I shouldn¡¯t compare myself with him,¡¯ he thought. After crossing the campus, there was still a long distance to the school¡¯s family dormitory building. They two sank into silence and felt embarrassed. Ruan Bai was a shy and retiring person, but this time he took the initiative to break the ice and tried to get closer to Professor She. ¡°Mr. She, are your lessons difficult? I¡¯m interested in law. Can I go to your law class?¡± asked Ruan Bai. She Yuan answered, ¡°My lessons are not difficult. If you want to study law, I will help you make up the missed lessons.¡± ¡®What? Don¡¯t you realize that I was just making the ritual noises? I don¡¯t want to make up the missed lessons at all,¡¯ Ruan Bai thought. ¡°Haha¡­ Thank you, Mr. She. I will ask for your help when I¡¯m free.¡± After that, they both remained silent for a while. Then Ruan Bai braced himself to change the subject, ¡°Mr. She, you have been injured. Shall I call your family and ask them to come here to look after you? Or shall I hire a health care worker for you?¡± ¡°My parents are abroad. It¡¯s not convenient for me to hire a health care worker. Er, are you free recently?¡± asked She Yuan. Ruan Bai sensed She Yuan¡¯s intention and stammered, ¡°¡­ Ah¡­ I¡­ I¡¯m busy with my studies¡­¡± ¡°When you are free, come to my home and take care of me. By the way, I have your class schedule.¡± Ruan Bai nodded reluctantly and gave up talking to She Yuan. ¡®I will never be a social animal because I lack social skills,¡¯ he thought. She Yuan put his arms around Ruan Bai¡¯s neck and treated Ruan Bai as a walking stick. He didn¡¯t let go of Ruan Bai until he reached his door. When Ruan Bai got out of She Yuan¡¯s arms, he felt dizzy and disoriented. She Yuan pinched Ruan Bai¡¯s white creamy cheek and said, ¡°Wake up. We got home.¡± Chapter 5 - You Are Safe with Me Chapter 5: You Are Safe with Me Translator: Ruriko Ruan Bai put up a fight against the attraction of the Alpha¡¯s pheromones and came to himself. Standing in the hallway outside the door, he pinched his cheeks hard to calm himself down. She Yuan¡¯s pheromones had a strong influence on Ruan Bai. The mellow aroma of rum that She Yuan gave off, dizzied Ruan Bai. Although Ruan Bai knew that She Yuan didn¡¯t mean to release the Alpha¡¯s pheromones to affect him, the result was unavoidable. Over the years, he always wore the isolation bracelet and took downers every month. He had thought that there was no danger of anything going wrong. But it never entered his mind that he was unable to betray his primordial instinct, no matter how hard he tried. He had grown up in comfort. After the Omega Protection Act had come into force, he had been allowed to go to school and participate in social activities. And in the future, he could enter the formal employment. The previous generation of Omegas had lived in fear every day, but Omegas of his generation lived much better than before. It was the result of the continual efforts exerted by Omegas from generation to generation. Ruan Bai cherished the fruits of the hard-won victory. He didn¡¯t want to be a breeding machine who could only stay at home to wait upon his husband and look after their children. So he studied hard and became a better research worker than most of the contemporary Alphas. But because of that, he was still single now. Over the past 26 years, he had not understood how it felt to be in estrus. He didn¡¯t know that the surging desire would drown him at that moment. Over the years, some of his classmates and friends were Alphas. He had known some male Alphas and female Alphas, but none of them had ever brought him such a strong feeling of lust. Recalling the moment that he had been dazzled and infatuated just now, Ruan Bai hesitated to enter this Alpha teacher¡¯s house. Seeing the hesitation on Ruan Bai¡¯s face, She Yuan took an isolation necklace from his pocket and gently held Ruan Bai¡¯s hand, signalling for the young Omega to help him put on the necklace. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. You are safe with me.¡± Compared with the isolation bracelet, the isolation necklace was more effective in isolating pheromones. It was somewhat similar to the mandatory isolation, because the isolation bracelet could compulsively stop Alphas from being in heat. Many Alphas who loved their spouses deeply would prepare an isolation necklace to prevent themselves from hurting their spouses during estrus. More effective isolation necklaces were used to punish the Alpha rapists so that they couldn¡¯t arouse their own sexual desire. It was equal to the physical castration. As his hand was wrapped in the palm of She Yuan¡¯s hand, Ruan Bai felt every inch of his skin was burning with fever. It was the first time he had realized that being touched by a man would make him shy. The moment he helped She Yuan put on the isolation necklace, the pheromones around him became thin. Feeling the burning blood in his veins slowly cool down, Ruan Bai took a couple of deep breaths to counter the flush that appeared on his face. Ruan Bai helped She Yuan walk in, sat him down on the sofa, and then stood beside him, waiting for his next instruction. With no intention of treating Ruan Bai as an outsider, She Yuan gave orders to Ruan Bai as a matter of course. ¡°Go to the second room on the left and fetch me the document from my desk. It¡¯s in a yellow folder.¡± Ruan Bai nodded and strode into the study. He looked for the document while thinking, ¡®This flat must be Mr. She¡¯s temporary lodging. There seems to be every indication that no one looks after this flat. He hasn¡¯t even prepared slippers for guests.¡± ¡°Eureka! I¡¯ve found it!¡± Ruan Bai was happy that he finally found the yellow folder. Just then, Dave, who couldn¡¯t stand the loneliness, appeared unexpectedly and got under the desk. ¡°Hi, Dave! Don¡¯t make trouble with me!¡± Dave was angry with Ruan Bai because Ruan Bai had given him a lecture in the teaching building. So, he began to create a disturbance when he was sure that he was in a safe environment. He ran around the desk so as to prevent his master from catching him. But in the next second, his plan was out of control. He knocked his head on the bookshelf before Ruan Bai could catch him. ¡°No! Oh my god!¡± All the books on the bookshelf fell to the floor. Dave felt a bit light-headed. Realizing that he had brought trouble on his master, he crouched in the corner silently. Ruan Bai got a guilty conscience and immediately rushed over to pick up the books. When he squatted down, he saw an indigo photo album lay open on the floor. He glanced at the photo and was about to close the photo album. However, he was stunned when he found that it was his photo Chapter 6 - The Photo Album Chapter 6: The Photo Album Translator: Ruriko The album was full of Ruan Bai¡¯s childhood photos, from a baby to a young child. According to the photos, the latest one had been taken when he was six. There was a boy standing beside the little Ruan Bai in each photo. He carefully changed the baby Ruan Bai¡¯s diaper; he cradled the baby in his arms and kissed the baby on the cheek; he gently pushed the little boy Ruan Bai on the swing. In the last photo, two boys sat under the pergola. Ruan Bai was crying sadly, and the older boy put his arm around Ruan Bai¡¯s shoulders and soothed him tenderly. The older boy looked familiar. His facial features were very similar to She Yuan¡¯s. Ruan Bai¡¯s intuition was telling him that the boy was She Yuan. But Ruan Bai had no memory of seeing She Yuan in his childhood. He had no idea how he had established such a close relationship with She Yuan long time ago. Dave had crouched in the corner for a long while. Too shocked, Ruan Bai had no time to lecture him. Dave felt relieved and walked over to his master swaying his pinkish little hips. Then, he rubbed his snout against Ruan Bai¡¯s hand, and then licked the back of Ruan Bai¡¯s hand with his tongue. The touch of Dave¡¯s elastic and moist artificial tongue drew Ruan Bai¡¯s thoughts back. He craned his neck and cast a glance at She Yuan who was sitting on the sofa in the sitting-room. Then he quickly picked up the photo album and the fallen books, and put them all together on the bookshelf. After that, he readjusted his clothes and walked out of the study with Dave and the document in his arms, pretending that nothing had happened. She Yuan was sitting on the sofa with his head bowed and playing with his cell phone. His guarding beast, Doctor was lying prone on the floor at his feet with its eyes closed. When Ruan Bai came to the sitting-room, Doctor immediately straightened up and stared at Dave in Ruan Bai¡¯s arms with its long, narrow eyes. She Yuan raised his head unhurriedly. Dave was on the verge of collapse. Every time he saw Doctor, he couldn¡¯t help trembling all over with fear. His animal instinct was telling him that he should keep away from Doctor. So he lowered his head and buried his face in Ruan Bai¡¯s arms. At the sight of Dave acting like a coward, She Yuan raised his eyebrows and gave a snort of disapproval. Ruan Bai mistakenly thought She Yuan was not satisfied with him, so he instantly explained, ¡°I¡­ I am not familiar with your flat. It took a long time for me to find the document. I¡¯m sorry.¡± She Yuan took the document from Ruan Bai with an expressionless face and said, ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. No need to apologize.¡± The master¡¯s mood would directly affect the guarding beast¡¯s mood and actions. For example, under the influence of She Yuan, Doctor kept crawling around Ruan Bai¡¯s feet, seeming to have an intention of wrapping its long body around Ruan Bai. As Doctor got closer, Dave trembled more violently. Ruan Bai felt a twinge of sympathy for Dave. For once, She Yuan explained why Doctor crawled around Ruan Bai, ¡°Don¡¯t be afraid. Doctor bears no ill will. He¡¯s crawling around you because he likes you.¡± She Yuan¡¯s explanation relieved Ruan Bai of the nervousness, but it seemed not to melt Dave¡¯s anxiety. Ruan Bai wanted to put Dave down so that the two guarding beasts could get used to each other. However, Dave clung to Ruan Bai and refused to get out of his arms. Realizing that Dave was very afraid of Doctor, Ruan Bai had no choice but to put Dave back in his optical computer. The moment Dave was gone, Ruan Bai sensed from the expression in Doctor¡¯s eyes that he was very disappointed. Doctor stopped crawling around Ruan Bai and slowly crawled back to his master. Then he lay coiled on the blanket and closed his eyes. Ruan Bai felt like an evil person who had just broken up an affectionate couple. He rubbed his nose with embarrassment and asked, ¡°Mr. She, is there anything else I can do for you?¡± She Yuan thought for a few seconds and asked, ¡°Can you cook?¡± ¡°Er, I can only cook instant noodles.¡± She Yuan frowned and lectured, ¡°Eat less unhealthy food from now on.¡± With a serious expression on his handsome face, She Yuan stared at Ruan Bai, retaining a natural aura of power. As a teacher, he had a commanding presence and deep, authoritative voice. Ruan Bai nodded obediently, ¡°Okay, I see. Thanks for your concern, Mr. She.¡± She Yuan picked up his cell phone and ordered take-out for two persons. ¡°I have ordered takeout. You have to open the door when the delivery man come.¡± ¡°Okay, I got it.¡± Ruan Bai curled his upper lip in a show of disapproval. ¡®Why didn¡¯t you ask me what I wanted to eat before you ordered take-out? If I don¡¯t like the food you ordered, you have to eat it all up by yourself,¡¯ he thought. ¡°Mr. She, how much is the take-out? I¡¯ll give you the money.¡± After hearing what Ruan Bai said, She Yuan was a bit upset, but he didn¡¯t lose his temper. After a moment¡¯s consideration, he said, ¡°It¡¯s not an urgent matter. You can pay me back later.¡± Chapter 7 - He Is Flirting with Ruan Bai? Chapter 7: He Is Flirting with Ruan Bai? Translator: Ruriko Ruan Bai wanted to say something, but when he saw the look on She Yuan¡¯s face, he bit his tongue instead. The takeout would come by later. She Yuan continued to do his work on the optical computer. Ruan Bai was idle. So he began to think about what he could do for Professor She. ¡°Mr. She, is there anything else I can do for you?¡± asked Ruan Bai. Without looking up at him, She Yuan answered, ¡°Nothing. Just sit down and have a rest.¡± While saying that, She Yuan wanted to stand up and fetch Ruan Bai some fruit, but suddenly remembered that he was a ¡°patient¡± now. He paused and continued, ¡°There is some fruit in the fridge. You can go and eat some.¡± Ruan Bai nodded and went to the kitchen. There were only several apples and oranges in the fridge. He took out all the fruit. After a while, She Yuan became worried because Ruan Bai didn¡¯t come out of the kitchen yet. He was about to go to the kitchen to see what caused the delay, when Ruan Bai walked out with a big fruit tray. The apples had been cut into the shape of rabbits, and the oranges had been carved into little Halloween pumpkins. They all looked lovely. Ruan Bai held the fruit tray in his cupped hands for She Yuan to see, and asked, ¡°Mr. She, do you think these rabbits and pumpkins look good?¡± She Yuan didn¡¯t look at the fruit tray. He fixed his eyes on Ruan Bai¡¯s face and nodded, ¡°Yes, they are beautiful.¡± Under She Yuan¡¯s intense gaze, Ruan Bai felt uncomfortable. He scratched his head with embarrassment and sat down beside She Yuan with a forced smile. ¡°Mr. She, let¡¯s eat the fruit together.¡± She Yuan was busy searching the Internet for a document. He shook his head and said, ¡°I¡¯m busy now. You can eat first.¡± Ruan Bai curled his upper lip in a show of dissatisfaction, forked an apple rabbit and bit off its head vehemently. The room was quiet. Only the sounds of She Yuan tapping away at the computer and Ruan Bai chewing on the apple, could be heard. She Yuan felt that Ruan Bai was like a lovely rabbit when he was masticating the apple. Maybe his apple was delicious. She Yuan looked away from the computer screen and fixated on the apple rabbit in Ruan Bai¡¯s hand. Ruan Bai felt embarrassed. He carefully chewed up the apple in his mouth and held the rest of the apple rabbit in his hand, wondering whether he should eat it or not. When Ruan Bai was at a loss what to do, She Yuan leaned up and took a bite of the apple in Ruan Bai¡¯s hand. Ruan Bai blushed and complained, ¡°Mr. She, it¡¯s my apple. I have taken a bite from it.¡± She Yuan swallowed down the apple, licked his lips and said, ¡°Oh, I don¡¯t know. I thought you deliberately cut the apple into that shape.¡± Ruan Bai pointed at the fruit tray on the tea table and sputtered, ¡°There¡¯s a loaded tray of fruit on the table. Why did you eat my apple?¡± She Yuan looked at the fruit tray and then at Ruan Bai. ¡°Because it is more delicious.¡± ¡®What did he mean by ¡®more delicious¡¯? What is he hinting at? Is he flirting with me?¡¯ Ruan Bai thought. She Yuan didn¡¯t explain more. Ruan Bai didn¡¯t dare to ask more. But Ruan Bai thought that he had to do something to stop She Yuan from flirting with him. ¡°Mr. She, can I ask you a question? Do you Alphas all like to flirt with us Omegas in a bid to enjoy the embarrassed look on our face?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know. I haven¡¯t ever flirted with any Omega.¡± At his words, Ruan Bai was stunned and could not think of the right thing to say. She Yuan asked, ¡°So, are you feeling embarrassed?¡± Ruan Bai didn¡¯t know how to answer She Yuan. At the beginning, Ruan Bai thought that She Yuan was flirting with him on purpose in an effort to make him feel embarrassed. In the eyes of Ruan Bai, even though She Yuan was good looking and had good genes, he must be deeply affected by Alphas¡¯ deep-rooted bad habits. However, She Yuan directly denied Ruan Bai¡¯s guess. Ruan Bai couldn¡¯t ask any more questions. But for some unknown reason, he felt a touch of sweetness in his heart. Ruan Bai¡¯s silence didn¡¯t stop She Yuan from asking more questions. ¡°You feel embarrassed because you are at an Alpha¡¯s home? Or because you are with me? Are you not at ease with me? ¡± Ruan Bai blurted out, ¡°How can I know? I haven¡¯t been to other Alphas¡¯ home.¡± She Yuan was pleased to hear that. A faint smile couldn¡¯t help but form onto his lips, and his dark eyes were full of joy. His next remark was like a snake, preparing to entangle his prey. ¡°So, you¡¯ve never been to any Alpha¡¯s home except my home. And you feel embarrassed because of me, right?¡± he said slowly, emphasizing every word. Chapter 8 - It Tastes Sweet Chapter 8: It Tastes Sweet Translator: Ruriko ¡°Ding-dong, ding-dong¡­¡± Suddenly, the doorbell rang. Ruan Bai let out a sigh of relief. Ruan Bai knew that he was very safe because She Yuan was wearing a pheromone isolation necklace. But he couldn¡¯t help but be attracted by She Yuan. The look in She Yuan¡¯s eyes made his heart flutter. She Yuan¡¯s melodious voice enchanted him. He even felt as if he had met She Yuan somewhere before. Fortunately, the delivery boy arrived in time and saved him from the dilemma. At this moment, Ruan Bai wanted to thank the delivery boy from the bottom of his heart. ¡°Mr. She, here comes the takeout! I¡¯ll go and answer the door.¡± Ruan Bai stood up and rushed to the door like a gust of wind. He opened the door and felt completely relaxed. ¡°Here you are. Please leave me a favourable comment on the website. Thank you.¡± ¡°Okay, no problem! This is your tip. Thank you for your hard work!¡± The delivery boy was deeply touched. He had never met such a good guest as Ruan Bai who was so kind as to tip him and give?him a positive comment. What was more, he was strikingly good-looking. Ruan Bai closed the door, put the takeout on the table in front of She Yuan, and said, ¡°Mr. She, here¡¯s the takeout.¡± He rubbed his hands together awkwardly and didn¡¯t know what course to take. She Yuan couldn¡¯t bear to force Ruan Bai to submit. After taking the food out of the bag, She Yuan waved at Ruan Bai, signalling for him to sit down. ¡°Come and eat with me.¡± Ruan Bai looked at the table. Almost all of the dishes were to his taste. He had a sweet tooth. Every time before doing experiments in the laboratory, he went to a bakery and bought several pieces of cake. However, when he went out to dinner with his friends, he seldom ordered his favorite dishes because few of his friends had a sweet tooth. She Yuan had ordered the takeout without asking him, but almost all of the dishes were quite to his taste. The delicious food made Ruan Bai¡¯s mouth watery and he swallowed secretly. She Yuan had been busy all morning. After class, he had been pushed down the stairs by Ruan Bai¡¯s pig. Now he was really hungry. After arranging the dishes on the table, he began to eat. Ruan Bai and She Yuan sat opposite each other and ate quietly. She Yuan kept an eye on Ruan Bai and put his favorite food in his bowl from time to time. Ruan Bai was a little embarrassed at being taken care of by a patient. He decided to do something to make things right. So he picked up a piece of sweet-and-sour pork with chopsticks and put it in She Yuan¡¯s bowl. Unexpectedly, She Yuan put down his chopsticks and said to Ruan Bai, ¡°The juices are mixed up.¡± Ruan Bai didn¡¯t take this into account. He turned scarlet from embarrassment. He meant to make overtures of friendship to She Yuan, but seemed to have brought him trouble. All of a sudden, Ruan Bai reached over to pick up that piece of the sweet-and-sour pork with his chopsticks again and wanted to take it away from She Yuan¡¯s bowl. But when he lifted his chopsticks and was about to withdraw his hand, She Yuan suddenly clutched Ruan Bai¡¯s hand and put the sweet-and-sour pork into his own mouth. She Yuan chewed it slowly and savour its flavour, while looking at Ruan Bai with a meaningful look. Then he clucked his tongue and said, ¡°It tastes sweet.¡± Ruan Bai stared at the chopsticks and dared not put them in his mouth again. ¡®Mr. She licked the chopsticks just now. Does it mean an indirect kiss between us?¡¯ The thought kept wheeling in his mind. He put down his chopsticks and said quickly, ¡°Mr. She, I¡¯m full. I have to go back to the the laboratory and feed the pigs. If you need help, just call me. Bye!¡± With that he opened the door and left quickly. Before She Yuan could say something to stop Ruan Bai, he ran out of the house. She Yuan was not angry. He didn¡¯t need to be hurried because he had ample time to win Ruan Bai¡¯s heart. He continued to eat the take-out food. When his stomach was full, he stood up and tidied up the table. Then he got down to business at hand. In the afternoon, he called the dean and asked for a sick leave. The dean was reluctant to grant She Yuan three months¡¯ leave but had to approve his application because the whole school knew that Professor She had been pushed down the stairs and got hurt in the leg. The dean had a good relationship with She Yuan. So he complained in a teasing tone, ¡°Do you really need a three-month leave? I think you are making a mountain out of a molehill.¡± She Yuan replied solemnly, ¡°It¡¯s a matter of great importance. I¡¯m going to pursue my future wife in the following three months.¡± Chapter 9 - Blind Dates The Dean was shocked by She Yuan¡¯s brazenness. He had known She Yuan for many years but still knew next to nothing about this side of his character. Although he was somewhat stunned by She Yuan¡¯s reason to be away from work, the Dean decided to give She Yuan every support so that this unmarried Alpha, who was above the average age for marriage, could get married as soon as possible. If She Yuan continued staying single, the elderly professors of Law School would arrange blind dates for him. In recent years, as the Omega Protection Act became more and more perfect and the study of the pheromone inhibitor became more and more in-depth, many rich, outstanding Omegas preferred to buy sperms from sperm banks so that they could have babies by artificial insemination. They wouldn¡¯t like to be slaves to their desires and be judged as a mere appendage to their spouses. So they refused to get married. With the development and progress of human society, marriage and fertility rates were on the decrease, which made the government worry about the future development of human beings. So, every couple who were willing to get married and have kids, would be fully supported by their superiors. So, the school leaders wouldn¡¯t refuse She Yuan¡¯s application, even if he asked for three years¡¯ leave, let alone three months¡¯ leave. After his application for leave was approved, She Yuan called his colleagues and asked them to take over his work. Then he lay down on the bed without anxiety. He switched his home robot to the doctor mode, applied some ointment to the wounds to reduce swelling, and then ordered the robot to bandage his legs. The robot scanned his leg and drew a conclusion that it didn¡¯t need to be bandaged. Troubled, the robot refused to do as he asked and said in a cold, mechanical voice, ¡°Master, you are almost uninjured. You do not need to bind up your leg.¡± ¡°I need a bandage.¡± Holding a medical kit in its mechanical arms, the robot spun and tried to stepped back. ¡°Am I sick? I didn¡¯t detect any serious injury in your leg. You don¡¯t need to bind up your leg.¡± She Yuan pulled the robot back and said, ¡°I need!¡± The robot struggled and kept shaking its head. Finally, She Yuan ran out of patience. He took a big bundle of gauze from the medical kit and wrapped it around his leg himself. Obviously, he was bad at dressing the wounds. Now his leg looked like having been run over by a truck, big and swollen. But in fact, he had only fallen down the stairs and received minor injuries. The robot moved around She Yuan, used the detector to scan his shin again and finally seemed to understand a little bit. ¡°Master, I guess you are feeling cold, right?¡± She Yuan was too lazy to explain to the robot, so he shut it down directly. He looked down at his bandaged leg which was now twice the size of its normal shape and looked swollen. Satisfied, he took a picture of his leg and sent it to Ruan Bai. Ruan Bai was now staying in his bedroom. Suddenly, his optical computer tinkled. It was a message from She Yuan. Ruan Bai caught his breath as he saw the picture. ¡°Oh, my God! He must suffer a lot.¡± He held Dave in his arms, put his optical computer in front of Dave and scolded, ¡°Look at this. He has a broken leg because of you. You started all the trouble.¡± Dave gave a snort of disapproval and wanted to tell his master that She Yuan must be lying. He was just a puny pig and had no ability to hurt a strong Alpha. But when he saw She Yuan¡¯s profile picture¨C that large snake, Dave lowered his head silently and let his master vent his anger on him. With a serious face, Ruan Bai sent She Yuan a short message, ¡°Mr. She, does your leg still hurt?¡± ¡°Yes(©Ñ©Ò©n©Ñ©Ò).¡± He used an emoticon to express his feeling. ¡°Mr. She, I¡¯m sorry about this afternoon. I left your flat so hurriedly because I suddenly remembered that I had a family matter to deal with. Tomorrow I will go to your house on time. If you need help, just call me. Once again sorry for what Dave did to you. I¡¯m really sorry. ¡± ¡°That¡¯s all right. Please come earlier tomorrow. I need your help.¡± ¡°¡­ Okay.¡± Chapter 10 - Falling into His Warm Embrace Chapter 10: Falling into His Warm Embrace Translator: Ruriko Early the next morning, Ruan Bai set out from his home. He had asked his mother to prepare two portions of breakfast on the pretext of him feeling hungry easily. But in fact, one portion was for She Yuan. Ruan Bai arrived at She Yuan¡¯s flat before 7:30 a.m. The door opened as soon as he knocked. He looked up to see the home robot standing in the doorway, instead of She Yuan. Yesterday She Yuan had imported Ruan Bai¡¯s photo to Face Recognition System of the home robot, so the robot would answer the door as soon as Ruan Bai knocked. Ruan Bai touched the robot¡¯s head and praised, ¡°Wow, you¡¯re doing a terrific job.¡± The home robot felt happy and broke into a fit of mechanical giggles. Ruan Bai walked around the flat and found that the door of the main bedroom was closed tightly. He guessed that She Yuan was still sleeping. So he crept into the kitchen, washed his hands, and set the breakfast on the table. He got up early this morning and had no time to feed Dave. Although guarding beasts relied on their masters¡¯ optical computers to get power, as the simulation technology had matured, they had the same characteristics as real animals, such as habits and appearance, but they wouldn¡¯t lose hair, defecate or die. So it was convenient to have a guarding beast for company. For example, the prototype of Dave was an improved pet pig. The length of his body wouldn¡¯t exceed 60 centimetres even when he matured physically. His whole body was pink and covered with soft fine hair, and His ears slightly sagged. When he was happy, his ears would stand up. He often hummed to himself and enjoyed his favorite food. Compared with other people¡¯s guardian animals, Dave was not outstanding because he was small in size and timid. In addition, Ruan Bai had always spoiled Dave from an early age. Therefore, Dave was often lazy in training, which led to him being less powerful than other pig-shaped guarding beasts of his own kind. His only advantage was that he had an acute sense of smell, which was truly unmatched by other guarding pigs. Dave¡¯s sense of smell was of great assistance to Ruan Bai in researches. Therefore, Ruan Bai never looked down upon Dave; instead, he always treated Dave as his good partner and doted on Dave because Dave had accompanied him during his loneliest period in early youth. Ruan Bai opened his optical computer and let Dave out. Then he gave Dave a big hug and took out an energy stick which was to Dave¡¯s taste. Dave, who had been feeling drowsy, didn¡¯t want to play with his master. But when he saw the energy stick, he immediately cheered up and wagged his tail, then began to bite the energy stick. After feeding the guarding pig, Ruan Bai glanced at the clock on the wall. It was almost eight o¡¯clock. He had to go to class at 9 o¡¯clock, so it was time to wake She Yuan up. He left the kitchen, walked to the door of She Yuan¡¯s bedroom and knocked, but no one answered. He again knocked on the door and shouted, ¡°Mr. She, I¡¯m Ruan Bai. Are you awake?¡± There was still no response. He pressed his ear to the closed door, listening for any noise to come. Then he raised his voice, ¡°Mr. She?¡± Just as the words fell from his lips, the door was pulled open from the inside. Ruan Bai lost his balance and fell forward into a warm embrace. Ruan Bai looked up to see She Yuan who squinted at her through lidded eyes with knitted brows. She Yuan got up on the wrong side of the bed. In this case, he would blow up at anyone who woke him. In his student days, he once hit his best friend on the head with his cell phone because that guy disturbed him when he was sleeping. Anyway, when he was drowsy, he was like a fierce animal and no one knew when he would bare its fangs and attack others. She Yuan was bare-chested, wearing only a pair of pajama pants. Ruan Bai could see the edge of his black underpants. His shoulders were broad and his waist narrow. He had a six-pack stomach and was extremely well-proportioned. The lines of his firm abs dipped down to his black underpants. Ruan Bai had no abdominal muscle, so he couldn¡¯t help but feel jealous of She Yuan¡¯s well-built body. They were both academic members. How did he keep such a perfect figure? She Yuan looked down at Ruan Bai who stayed in his arms with a flushed face and stole a glance at him from time to time. Then, She Yuan asked, ¡°Are you satisfied with my body?¡± Chapter 11 - Black Giant Python After saying that, She Yuan pulled Ruan Bai¡¯s hand and pressed it against his stomach muscles before Ruan Bai could react. ¡°You can touch if you want.¡± She Yuan led Ruan Bai to feel his six pack from the bottom up. Ruan Bai¡¯s palm was sweaty and his brain stopped working. He couldn¡¯t understand why things would come to such a state. He just came to bring She Yuan breakfast. She Yuan held Ruan Bai¡¯s hand and put it on his left breast. Ruan Bai felt She Yuan¡¯s rapid heartbeat and blurted out, ¡°Your heart is beating violently!¡± ¡°Yes. I feel nervous when I see you.¡± Ruan Bai did not know how to reply to him. There was an air of romance in the room. Their pheromones were mixed up and turned into a sweet scent. Ruan Bai had never been so intimate with a man. He could feel the violent throbs of his own heart and the nagging lump of tension in his chest. Ruan Bai had never met such an Alpha like She Yuan. As a mature man, he was tall, handsome and outstanding. Everyone would fall for his charm. Ruan Bai was just a normal man. Certainly, he would be attracted by She Yuan¡¯s looks. But fortunately, he didn¡¯t lose his senses completely. He looked away from She Yuan, put a hand on She Yuan¡¯s chest to stop him from coming closer. ¡°Mr. She, I have put the breakfast in the kitchen. Don¡¯t forget to eat it. I¡¯m going to class. Bye!¡± When he was nervous, he would subconsciously talk fast. Now he felt very nervous at staying with She Yuan. As soon as Ruan Bai finished speaking, he turned around and wanted to run away. She Yuan instantly grasped Ruan Bai¡¯s hand and wrapped his arms about Ruan Bai. ¡°Stay and eat breakfast with me,¡± he said in a peremptory voice. Ruan Bai summoned up all his courage and was about to refuse She Yuan. But suddenly, She Yuan fell forward and threw his arms around Ruan Bai¡¯s neck. ¡°My leg hurt. I can¡¯t walk.¡± ¡®Does his leg really hurt? Or it¡¯s just a reaction of his emotions?¡¯ Ruan Bai thought. She Yuan dragged Ruan Bai to the kitchen and sat him down on the chair. ¡°Have you eaten breakfast? ¡± Ruan Bai shook his head and answered, ¡°No. I intend to take my breakfast to my lab and eat there.¡± ¡°Haven¡¯t you been told that your lab is required to shake itself up because of letting the experimental animal run out of the lab? Your tutor is asked to make a self-criticism.¡± ¡°Ah? It¡¯s¡­ It¡¯s entirely my fault. I should take full responsibility.¡± She Yuan comforted, ¡°It¡¯s not your fault. Come on, let¡¯s eat breakfast.¡± Ruan Bai was not in the mood to eat anything. His pig, Effie just gave birth to a baby pig. Now the lab had to be restructured. Where would the animals be placed? What if Effie developed postpartum depression? Ruan Bai had was not really in the mood to flirt with She Yuan because he was very worried about Effie. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I have contacted your tutor, and he had put all the animals in a private pasture. Now your main job is to take care of me.¡± With that, She Yuan took a mouthful of porridge and tapped his bandaged leg. Ruan Bai held the tablecloth in his hand and whispered, ¡°I don¡¯t think you need my help.¡± ¡°What did you say? ¡± ¡°Nothing much.¡± Ruan Bai waved his hand and asked curiously, ¡°Mr. She, I smell the alcohol on you. Did you drink early this morning?¡± Ruan Bai didn¡¯t know what was going on, but She Yuan did. He put down his chopsticks and said, ¡°Wait a minute. ¡± She Yuan went back to his bedroom and put on the isolation necklace. When She Yuan returned to the kitchen, Ruan Bai felt that the smell of the alcohol in the air disappeared. It all clicked when he saw the necklace round She Yuan¡¯s neck. His face turned red again. If an Omega said to an Alpha that his pheromones was overpowering, the Alpha would think that the Omega was seducing him in a flagrant way, because after several generations of evolution, only a couple with a high matching rate could smell each other¡¯s pheromones. Many people didn¡¯t know what their spouses smelt like until death. Ruan Bai shuffled around in his chair and breakfasted with She Yuan. After taking a few mouthfuls, he heard Dave wailing mournfully in the drawing room. ¡°Ah, Dave!¡± Ruan Bai put down his chopsticks and ran into the drawing room, shocked to see that Doctor wrapped his long body around Dave, poking Dave¡¯s belly with his tail. Dave tried desperately to break away from Doctor, but he failed. Doctor was a black giant python with golden stripes on his skin and a white scissors-shaped pattern on his head. He was more than two meters long and his girth was about the size of an adult¡¯s arm. He was mild in personality. But once She Yuan ran into danger, Doctor would immediately get into combat mode. He had an excellent fighting capacity and was a guarding beast of the fighting type. He normally gave other guarding beasts the cold shoulder. Besides, he was extremely territorial and didn¡¯t allow any guarding beast to be within one metre of him. Otherwise, he would attack them. But Doctor showed special preference to Dave and liked to stay with him. Yesterday Doctor had even wanted to swallow Dave because he had thought that in this way Dave would belong to him only. ¡®Unfortunately, my master¡¯s future spouse stopped me. Look, he¡¯s going to get in the way of my happiness again. Alas, he¡¯s really a bad guy!¡¯ Doctor thought. Chapter 12 - Encounter Doctor obediently carried out She Yuan¡¯s command and stayed away from Dave. With his limbs free, Dave felt relieved. ¡°Mr. She, why is Doctor always fastening on Dave? ¡± ¡°Because guarding beasts¡¯ behaviors are a direct reflection of their masters¡¯ emotions.¡± Ruan Bai was stunned and a few seconds later, he asked, ¡°So¡­ You¡­ You want to hold Dave?¡± She Yuan had mixed feelings of anger and helplessness. He asked, ¡°Did you pass the exam of Electronic Machinery Course?¡± Ruan Bai was about to nod when he suddenly recalled that he did learn from books that guarding beasts and their masters were greatly related to each other in character and behavior. It could even be said that masters would acquire some characteristics from their own guarding beasts. Some masters had good ears and a keen sense of smell because their guarding beast were excellent in these respects. A guarding beast was a direct reflection of the state of its masters. The better the intelligence and physical strength of the master, the stronger the energy of the guarding beast. So, the reason two guarding beasts loved each other was mostly because their masters loved each other; the reason two guarding beasts fought against each other was mostly because their masters were at daggers drawn. As soon as he figured out what She Yuan meant, Ruan Bai flushed to the ears. With a bright red face, he whispered, ¡°Oh¡­¡± ¡°So you don¡¯t have to worry about Dave. Let them play together.¡± Ruan Bai nodded. She Yuan took his hand and drew him back into the kitchen, leaving Dave and Doctor in the drawing room. Dave was so scared that the fine hair on his skin stood on end. ¡®Master, look at me! I also want to take your hand. Do you no longer love me? Ah!!! Don¡¯t leave me behind!¡¯ he shouted in his heart. Doctor crawled right up to Dave with satisfaction and poked Dave with his tail, as if to say, ¡°Now you are mine.¡± Dave wanted to play dead, but Doctor took a big box of energy sticks from a drawer of the tea table, which attracted Dave¡¯s attention. The energy sticks were the reserve grain prepared by She Yuan for Doctor, and happened to be Dave¡¯s favorite food. Dave lay down on the floor and played dead, but he squinted his eyes and kept staring at the energy sticks. ¡®This type of energy stick seems to be expensive, so every time my master feeds me, he is unwilling to give me too many¡­¡¯ After thinking for a while, Dave opened his eyes, pretended to have just come out of a coma, and then gave Doctor a questioning look, as if to say, ¡°Are these energy sticks all for me?¡± Doctor nodded and pushed the box forward. Dave gave a happy oink and started to eat. Doctor had his own plan. He wrapped his long body around Dave and signalled that Dave could eat only in this way. Dave pouts and compromised, ¡°OK.¡± Doctor was satisfied with Dave¡¯s obedience. So he twined himself loosely around Dave and fed Dave the energy sticks one after another. Dave was also happy and thought, ¡®He seems to be a good guy!¡¯ In the kitchen, Ruan Bai was eating with She Yuan. ¡®He¡¯s always flirting with me. I have to do something. As a man, I should confront this problem and solve it,¡¯ Ruan Bai thought. ¡°Mr. She, I want to talk to you. ¡± She Yuan swallowed the last mouthful of porridge, wiped his mouth with a tissue and motioned Ruan Bai to go on speaking. ¡°Don¡¯t you think that it¡¯s improper to say something ambiguous to me?¡± ¡°No, I don¡¯t. You and I are single. Can¡¯t I pursue you?¡± ¡°¡­ Ah?¡± At his words, Ruan Bai was struck dumb. ¡°I know you can¡¯t accept me right now, but please believe me. My decision has been made after careful consideration.¡± ¡°But¡­ But we are not familiar with each other¡­¡± She Yuan¡¯s eyes dimmed, filled with disappointment. But as he raised his head, he resumed his composure. ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. We have three months to get to know each other. You have to take care of me, don¡¯t you?¡± Ruan Bai bowed his head and dared not look up at him. Now he understood that She Yuan was pretending to be hurt in order to approach him. But Ruan Bai didn¡¯t want to expose She Yuan¡¯s lie. Finally, he plucked up the courage to say, ¡°I¡­ I am traditional¡­ ¡± She Yuan nodded, ¡°Okay, I see. Marriage is the most important thing in our life. We shouldn¡¯t make a swift decision without careful consideration. I will prove myself by action and give you a satisfactory answer.¡± Just then, Ruan Bai¡¯s phone rang. He looked down at the phone screen and said, ¡°It¡¯s my tutor.¡± ¡°You can answer it.¡± Ruan Bai answered the call. His tutor asked his students, including Ruan Bai, to tidy up the lab because it was to be shut down for a shake-up and all the researchers would be given a holiday. So they had to move away all the important things in the lab. Ruan Bai told She Yuan about it. She Yuan agreed to let Ruan Bai go, but with reluctance. ¡°Mr. She, what time shall I come to you tomorrow?¡± ¡°I¡¯m not sure yet, but I will call you later to tell you when you should come.¡± Ruan Bai nodded and left She Yuan¡¯s home. He cleaned up the lab and sorted out all the documents and equipment with his juniors. He was busy until 6:00 p.m. When he returned home, his parents were eating dinner. At the sight of Ruan Bai coming back, Ruan Bai¡¯s mother, Qi Qiuyu was very happy and immediately served him a bowl of rice. Ruan Bai and his parents started to have dinner together with pleasure. However, after a little while, Qi Qiuyu asked, ¡°My dear son, do you have anything to do tomorrow?¡± Tomorrow was a free day for Ruan Bai because She Yuan hadn¡¯t contacted him yet. So he answered, ¡°No.¡± ¡°That¡¯s great! Do you remember Aunt Li? She once held you when you were a baby. Now she has returned from abroad and invites our family to have dinner with her. You should go too.¡± Ruan Bai had no memories of his childhood, because he had once suffered a high fever which had deleted most of his memories. But afraid of upsetting his mother, he didn¡¯t mention his loss of memory. ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll drive tomorrow.¡± After dinner, his father went to the kitchen and helped his mother wash the dishes. Ruan Bai went to his bedroom, washed his face and rinsed his mouth, then lay on the bed reading. But he couldn¡¯t concentrate on the book. Every ten minutes he checked his cell phone but She Yuan didn¡¯t contact him. Ruan Bai pouted, threw his cell phone aside and slowly fell asleep. The next day, Ruan Bai and his parents went to a high-class restaurant. As soon as he walked into the private room, he was shocked because She Yuan was sitting beside Aunt Li Chapter 13 - The Marriage Interview Chapter 13: The Marriage Interview Translator: Ruriko At the sight of Ruan Bai and his parents, She Yuan stood up and greeted them with a broad smile. Then he poured them each a cup of tea and helped them hang their coats up the coat stand. Qi Qiuyu reached out, patted She Yuan on the shoulder and said, ¡°Yuan, you have grown up¡­¡± ¡®What?! She Yuan is the son of my mother¡¯s confidante?¡¯ Ruan Bai thought. Li Qingge was very happy. Her son, She Yuan was a single man who was above the average age for marriage. She was always worried about whether he could find his spouse. But to her surprise, yesterday he suddenly called her and asked her to arrange a marriage family interview for him and Ruan Bai. She liked Ruan Bai very much. When he was a little, lovable baby, she had often cradled him in her arms. Now he had grown up and became a beautiful and clever Omega. If She Yuan couldn¡¯t marry Ruan Bai, she would be very sad, and maybe she would drive She Yuan out of her house. Li Qingge smiled at Ruan Bai and asked, ¡°Do you remember me? I¡¯m Aunt Li. He¡¯s my son, She Yuan. And you always called him Brother Yu in your childhood.¡± Ruan Bai tried to smile away his embarrassment. ¡°Of course I remember you two.¡± Li Qingge hadn¡¯t seen Qi Qiuyu for more than ten years. It was of course a delight for them to meet again after such a long separation. But they didn¡¯t forget their major purpose. Li Qingge said in a teasing tone, ¡°You young guys can have a chat. Bai, you were a crybaby in childhood and only in Yuan¡¯s arms could you stop crying. When you got a little older, you began to learn to read and write, but you misread his surname She as Yu. So you always called him Brother Yu. You two were so cute at that time.¡± Speaking of which, she couldn¡¯t refrain from laughter. Covering her mouth with one hand and pointing at her son with the other, she continued, ¡°My son Yuan was cold towards people around him, but once he saw Bai, his heart overflowed with tenderness. He doted on Bai and did everything for Bai.¡± T/N note: She Yuan¡¯s surname ÙÜ(Chinese pronunciation: She) looks very similar to Óà(Chinese pronunciation: Yu). Qi Qiuyu added, ¡°Yes! At that time, Bai was small but shrewd. Every time we refused to give him candy, he went to She Yuan. As long as he acted in a pettishly charming manner, She Yuan immediately gave in to what he wanted. So he always got candy from She Yuan.¡± Li Qiufeng and Qi Qiuyu were talking about the past enthusiastically, which made Ruan Bai ashamed. She Yuan immediately saved Ruan Bai from embarrassment by changing the subject. ¡°Mom, Aunt Qi, Uncle Ruan, this is the menu. Please have a look. I have ordered some dishes. What else would you like to order?¡± Qi Qiuyu looked at the menu with a satisfied smile and thought, ¡®What he has ordered are all Bai¡¯s favorite dishes.¡¯ The three elders added some dishes, and then began to chat. They were old school friends and had many past events to talk about. So they put She Yuan and Ruan Bai aside. She yuan peeled a sweet chestnut for Ruan Bai who, with a little anger, puffed out his cheeks and ate it. ¡°What are you angry about? ¡± Ruan Bai kept his mouth shut. She Yuan fed him another sweet chestnut and said, ¡°Don¡¯t ignore me.¡± Ruan Bai kept eating the chestnuts that She Yuan put to his mouth. However, he didn¡¯t say a word to She Yuan. After a while, when Ruan Bai was about to eat the chestnut, She Yuan suddenly withdrew his hand. Then She Yuan leaned forward to whisper in Ruan Bai¡¯s ear, ¡°Please give me a reaction.¡± For the sake of the sweet chestnuts, Ruan Bai gave a snort as a reaction. With a faint smile, She Yuan continued to feed Ruan Bai. ¡°Are you angry with me because I didn¡¯t call you last night?¡± Ruan Bai straightened up his neck and didn¡¯t answer at once. After thinking for a while, he nodded. To be honest, he was a little angry. She yuan wiped the chestnut crumbs off the corner of Ruan Bai¡¯s mouth with a finger, and then licked it. ¡°It¡¯s sweet,¡± She Yuan said. Ruan Bai blushed with shame. She Yuan was indeed brazen! How could he do that in front of the elders? ¡°Is it a marriage interview between our two families?¡± She Yuan nodded, ¡°Yes. Yesterday you told me that you were traditional. So after a careful consideration, I arranged this marriage interview according to the traditional customs. Our parents are all here. Are you satisfied with it?¡± Ruan Bai remained silent with a blushing face. She Yuan suddenly thought of something important and asked, ¡°Maybe we need a matchmaker?All right, I will find one in a minute. What about your tutor? Is he qualified to be our matchmaker?¡± With that She Yuan was about to phone Ruan Bai¡¯s tutor, but Ruan Bai grabbed his hand and stopped him, ¡°Don¡¯t call him.¡± ¡°Are you still angry now?¡± Ruan Bai shook his head. He didn¡¯t dare be angry anymore because he was afraid of She Yuan telling his tutor everything. Chapter 14 - Hes Possessive About Ruan Bai The dining table was a big round table. The three elders sat together opposite Ruan Bai and She Yuan; it could have been either accidental or deliberate. While chatting, the two ladies were also observing the behaviour of the two children opposite. She Yuan rested his arms on the back of Ruan Bai¡¯s chair and stayed close to Ruan Bai, which looked like he was holding Ruan Bai in his arms. But Ruan Bai didn¡¯t notice that because he was attentively eating sweet chestnuts. Every Alpha was very possessive about his spouse in courtship and didn¡¯t allow others to approach his spouse. Ruan Bai wasn¡¯t disgusted with She Yuan¡¯s possessive behavior towards himself; instead, he liked the smell of She Yuan¡¯s pheromones and wanted to be close to She Yuan. Li Qingge was very happy. Her son, She Yuan had been very possessive about Ruan Bai since childhood. He only had eyes for Ruan Bai and didn¡¯t allow any other children to approach Ruan Bai. Before Ruan Bai left the Du City, She Yuan always took scrupulous care of Ruan Bai. From birth to the age of 6, Ruan Bai was fully doted on by She Yuan. But She Yuan always felt that was not enough. Fortunately, Ruan Bai never made any extortionate demands. Even if he did, She Yuan would do everything to satisfy him. When She Yuan was 16 years old, the She family was forced to leave the Du City. At the beginning, She Yuan refused to leave because he wanted to be with Ruan Bai. But considering his safety, his parents took him away by force. Afterwards, when he knew that Ruan Bai lost his memory due to a high fever, he promptly returned to China and went to the hospital to see Ruan Bai. But at that time, Ruan Bai had moved to another city and started a new life there. What was worse, he forgot She Yuan. It gave She Yuan a hard blow. After returning to his parents, he was in the doldrums for more than a month. Li Qingge had no way to cheer him up. During that time, the She family was in a mess and she had no time to attend to She Yuan. To her surprise, two months later, She Yuan pulled himself together and made up all his missed lessons. Since then, the whole She family avoided any mention of Ruan Bai. She Yuan later returned to China on a regular basis, but none of his family knew what he was doing in China. No one expected that She Yuan would enter J University to study for his doctorate without his parents¡¯ prior knowledge or consent after getting a master¡¯s degree abroad. After graduation, he became a teacher of J University. And that year Ruan Bai was admitted to J University. Li Qingge still remembered what She Yuan said to her when he was 16. ¡°I know we are going through a very difficult time. Sorry for having been a nuisance. I won¡¯t insist on returning to China anymore because I¡¯m not strong enough to protect him now. When I become powerful, I will return to him. He has forgotten me, but that¡¯s okay. I will engrave my image on his memory again.¡± After that, he never mentioned anything to his parents about Ruan Bai until yesterday afternoon he suddenly called Li Qingge and asked her to arrange a marriage family interview for him and Ruan Bai. From his words, Li Qingge knew that he had got everything set up. Li Qingge dropped everything and went to the airport. While waiting for the flight, Li Qingge called Qi Qiuyu and invited her and her family out for dinner next day. In order to pair She Yuan off with Ruan Bai, Li Qingge even falsely claimed that she happened to return to China and wanted to see old friends. Li Qingge looked at She Yuan and Ruan Bai with a satisfied smile. These two young men were intimately whispering to each other. She once thought her son would remain single forever, but now he found such an excellent, handsome and likable Omega to be his spouse. Li Qingge sincerely thanked God for bringing Ruan Bai back to her son. Li Qingge turned the lazy Susan, picked up a chicken drumstick with her chopsticks and handed it to Ruan Bai. ¡°Bai, here¡¯s a chicken drumstick for you. Take it!¡± Ruan Bai looked at his own bowl helplessly because She Yuan had filled it with food. ¡®Am I a big eater in the eyes of Aunt Li and She Yuan?¡¯ he thought. He didn¡¯t know how to refuse Li Qingge, so he had to accept the chicken drumstick. ¡°Thank you, Aunt Li. It¡¯s delicious,¡± he said with a smile. She yuan whispered in Ruan Bai¡¯s ear, ¡°Why do you only eat the food given by my mother? I¡¯m so sad.¡± With a red face, Ruan Bai replied under his breath, ¡°Okay, I got it.¡± She Yuan pinched Ruan¡¯s red earlobe gently and said in a low voice, ¡°If you don¡¯t eat the food I put in your bowl, I¡¯ll eat you up.¡± Chapter 15 - The Past Events Chapter 15: The Past Events Translator: Ruriko She Yuan gently held Ruan Bai¡¯s earlobe in his hand. Ruan Bai felt his earlobe getting hotter, as a wave of warmth surged through him. He kept quiet with his head bowed and ate the food others put in his bowl. Obedience by Ruan Bai towards She Yuan gave him a hint that he could go a step further. So he pinched Ruan Bai¡¯s cheek. Li Qingge couldn¡¯t bear to see that, so she put some food in She Yuan¡¯s bowl with her chopsticks and said, ¡°Stop playing around and eat!¡± She Yuan nodded. However, he didn¡¯t eat it; instead, he gave it to Ruan Bai because there was no such a dish in Ruan Bai¡¯s bowl. Ruan Bai looked at She Yuan with puppy dog eyes and whispered, ¡°I can¡¯t eat any more¡­¡± She Yuan put down his chopsticks and said sternly, ¡°What about the leftover food? It¡¯s a sin to waste food.¡± Ruan Bai curled his upper lip, and intended to eat up the remaining food although he was quite full. She Yuan leaned towards Ruan Bai and said, ¡°Promise me one thing, and I¡¯ll help you deal with the leftover food.¡± Ruan Bai instantly nodded. If his mother saw the leftover food in his bowl, she would nag him. Given the choice between facing his mother¡¯s endless nagging and satisfying She Yuan¡¯s request, Ruan Bai unhesitatingly chose the latter option. After getting a satisfactory reply from Ruan Bai, She Yuan reached for Ruan Bai¡¯s bowl and ate up the leftover food in it. Ruan Bai wanted to deal with the leftover food secretly. He didn¡¯t expect that She Yuan would expose and even eat it under the gaze of the elders. ¡®Help¡­¡¯ Ruan Bai wailed in his heart. He felt ashamed of She Yuan¡¯s shameless behavior. In his view, it was an indirect exchange of saliva, which meant an indirect kiss. Ruan Bai stole a glance at his parents and Aunt Li sitting opposite him. They turned a blind eye to what happened and kept chatting as if they knew long ago that these two young men would be together. In truth, the three elders witnessed everything and drew a conclusion that they were going to be relatives by marriage. Different from Ruan Changhu¡¯s restlessness, Qi Qiuyu was accustomed to see that, because She Yuan had looked after Ruan Bai like that when Ruan Bai was a little child. At that time, She Yuan invariably fed Ruan Bai before having his meal. Ruan Bai had a poor appetite and couldn¡¯t finish his meal. After feeding Ruan Bai, She Yuan always ate up the remaining food. So, to be exact, they two had frequently exchanged their saliva indirectly after Ruan Bai had been weaned. At that time, She Yuan was just a 7-year-old boy who was not very skilful with his chopsticks. But no matter how heavily it was raining outside, he insisted on going to Ruan Bai¡¯s home to feed him. If someone stopped him, he would be upset and refuse to eat. As time passed, the adults set their mind at rest because She Yuan did take good care of Ruan Bai. She Yuan had looked after Ruan Bai in every possible way and almost spoiled him. His indulgence towards Ruan Bai lasted for nine years, which led Ruan Bai to be a delicate boy who cried in front of She Yuan every time he got frustrated. Qi Qiuyu taunted him with being a crybaby but Ruan Bai didn¡¯t take her words to heart. Anyway, She Yuan would embrace him and give him candy whenever he was sad. However, their intimate relationship was a root of Ruan Bai¡¯s personal tragedy. After She Yuan was forced to leave the Du City due to the family misfortune, Ruan Bai couldn¡¯t accept his leaving and cried every day. He refused to eat or go to school. What was worse, his body system was thrown out of whack because his body was accustomed to She Yuan¡¯s pheromones so that the sudden change of the external environment cause his extreme discomfort. A week later, the disorder of his body system became worse and Ruan Bai began to run an extremely high temperature. His father, Ruan Changhu took him to the best children¡¯s hospital. Doctors attempted to reduce his high fever by every possible means but they failed. For a little child, a high fever might take his life away. At that time, Ruan Bai¡¯s doctor in charge put forward a bold treatment plan. He wanted to seal off Ruan Bai¡¯s glands to stop them from responding to the external pheromones. Maybe in this way Ruan Bai¡¯s body system would return to normal. Finally, Qi Qiuyu agreed to the treatment plan. She couldn¡¯t bear to watch her son die in front of her. Ruan Bai was a lucky dog. After the operation, he passed the crisis and his fever dropped. But he lost all his memory due to the constant high fever. Ruan Changhu and Qi Qiuyu soon accepted Ruan Bai¡¯s loss of memory. Anyway, he survived. They treated Ruan Bai as a newborn baby and taught him life skills. Without She Yuan¡¯s indulgence, Ruan Bai gradually learned to live independently. Chapter 16 - I Miss You As a result of the operation in his childhood, Ruan Bai¡¯s differentiation came much later than his peers. He even couldn¡¯t sense the pheromones of other Alphas, Betas and Omegas, or receive the courtship signals of other people. But She Yuan¡¯s reappearance restored Ruan Bai¡¯s body to the most comfortable state. His closed glands began to work again. There was, by nature, an unstoppable attraction between Ruan Bai and She Yuan. That was why Ruan Bai could only smell the pheromones of She Yuan. Ruan Bai didn¡¯t ever tell anyone about that. But he once accidentally made a slip of the tongue in front of She Yuan. Although Ruan Bai lost the memory of his childhood, he was incredibly intelligent. He knew in a vague way that he was different from others, but he didn¡¯t want to go deep. He always believed that he would get better sooner or later. ¡®Is She Yuan the one who can make me get better? He has an intimate attitude towards me. I¡¯m so curious if She Yuan treats me as a substitute for someone.¡¯ At the thought of this, Ruan Bai lost his appetite. Ruan Bai stopped making blind and disorderly conjectures, looked up at She Yuan and happened to meet his eyes. ¡°Huh? What¡¯s the matter?¡± ¡°It¡¯s nothing.¡± Ruan Bai blushed and turned his head away. She Yuan kept his eyes fixed on Ruan Bai so as to notice and satisfy Ruan Bai¡¯s needs at any time. At this point, he perceived that Ruan Bai seemed to have some strange thoughts, but didn¡¯t know what they were. All the people were thoroughly enjoying the meal. It was not only a joyful reunion of old friends, but also a marriage interview between two families. Qi Qiuyu and Li Qingge knew each other well. They both thought that it was a good thing to cement old ties by marriage. So they had no reason to oppose the marriage between Ruan Bai and She Yuan. Although they didn¡¯t know each other¡¯s child well, they believed that their own child was a good judge of men. Through this meeting, they learned more or less what kind of person each other¡¯s child was. Both She Yuan and Ruan Bai had grown into excellent persons. Li Qingge knew that her son was determined to marry Ruan Bai and no one could change his mind. And she could see that Ruan Bai also adored She Yuan because his eyes glittered with tenderness when he looked at She Yuan. What was more, he was noticeably dependent on She Yuan. Li Qingge believed that her son would soon win Ruan Bai¡¯s heart completely. When the meal was over, Li Qingge and Qi Qiuyu hugged and said goodbye to each other. She yuan and Ruan Bai exchanged a few words and then drove home separately. Ruan Bai was driving while listening to his parents¡¯ constant compliments on She Yuan. For some unknown reason, Ruan Bai felt delighted as if they were praising him. When they got home, Ruan Bai said goodnight to his parents and went back to his bedroom. Ruan Bai changed into his pajamas, and was about to go to the bathroom to wash up when his cell phone rang. It was a call from She Yuan. He answered the phone, ¡°What¡¯s up?¡± ¡°Do you remember what I told you at the restaurant? What are you going to do?¡± ¡°Ah? What can I do? He needs to learn how to make effective self-adjustment. Maybe you should comfort him.¡± ¡°He doesn¡¯t listen to me. If he doesn¡¯t see Dave today, he won¡¯t eat.¡± Ruan Bai was in a dilemma. At the gate of the hotel, She Yuan had told Ruan Bai that Doctor was in gloomy, downbeat mood because he missed Dave very much but couldn¡¯t see him. She Yuan said in a sincere tone at the other end of the line, ¡°Can you come over to my house? Doctor needs you.¡± Ruan Bai looked down at his watch and replied, ¡°It¡¯s too late¡­¡± ¡°Okay. Can you go downstairs? I¡¯m waiting for you downstairs right now.¡± Ruan Bai couldn¡¯t believe it. But when he opened the curtain, he saw She Yuan leaning against his Jeep, with the car lights on. She Yuan in a black woolen coat raised his head and waved at Ruan Bai upstairs. Ruan Bai stood by the window and asked on the phone, ¡°Why are you here? We have just met at the restaurant!¡± She Yuan looked at Ruan Bai and nodded, ¡°Yes. But I began to miss you as soon as I became separated from you.¡± Chapter 17 - A Soft, Brushing Kiss Ruan Bai wore a pink pajama printed with a pig pattern, looking younger than his age. He put on a white woolen jacket and slipped downstairs. As soon as he got to the first floor, someone hugged him tightly. Ruan Bai let out a cry of shock. She Yuan unbuttoned his long coat and wrapped Ruan Bai up. With his cheek against She Yuan¡¯s chest, Ruan Bai flushed crimson with shame. He looked up at She Yuan, blinking his eyes with a look of innocence, speechless. She Yuan lowered his head and stared at Ruan Bai with loving eyes, as a smile couldn¡¯t help but form onto his lips. Ruan Bai was so lovable that She Yuan couldn¡¯t restrain his affection for him. Under She Yuan¡¯s intense gaze, Ruan Bai felt self-conscious. In order to relieve himself of embarrassment, Ruan Bai pouted and made a face. Unexpectedly, She Yuan lowered his head and kissed Ruan Bai on the mouth less than two seconds after he pouted his lips. It was a soft, brushing kiss. Before Ruan Bai could react, it ended. When he came back to himself, he tried to push She Yuan away but failed because She Yuan held him tightly. Ruan Bai put his hand over his mouth, and questioned in a muffled voice, ¡°You¡­ How could you kiss me?¡± ¡°I thought you pouted because you wanted me to kiss you.¡± Ruan Bai butted She Yuan in the chest and claimed, ¡°I didn¡¯t mean that!¡± She Yuan rubbed Ruan Bai¡¯s hair with his hand and asked, ¡°Are you feeling cold?¡± Ruan Bai buried his head in Che Yuan¡¯s chest and shook his head. They were standing in the narrow corridor and hugging each other. The lamplight kept flickering. They were silent, but their feelings were interlinked. Ruan Bai felt an atmosphere of peace and warmth, but his heart was overwhelmed with worries. He was not the kind of man who could keep things bottled up inside, so he decided to talk to She Yuan. ¡°Mr. She, can I ask you something¡­¡± Ruan Bai wanted to get straight to the point, but he found it difficult to bring the matter up. So he bit back the words he would like to have said. ¡®What should I say? I¡¯m jealous of myself, and I don¡¯t know how to deal with my emotions? That sounds ridiculous!¡¯ Ruan Bai thought to himself. She Yuan bent his body slightly forward and looked deep into Ruan Bai¡¯s eyes. ¡°When we were having dinner at the restaurant, I found you were unhappy. What on earth happened?¡± he asked. Ruan Bai was a coward, but in front of She Yuan, he seemed full of courage because She Yuan was a reliable person in his eyes. Finally, Ruan Bai summoned up his courage and asked, ¡°You are an excellent man. Why do you like me? Or the one you really like is your childhood sweetheart?¡± She Yuan pursed his lips together without saying a word. He took off his long coat, wrapped it around Ruan Bai and took him by the hand to lead him out of the building. ¡°Come with me,¡± She Yuan said. He beckoned Ruan Bai to get into the car. Ruan Bai thought for a moment and then obediently got in. Wearing the pajamas, Ruan Bai followed She Yuan to his flat in the family dormitory building. She Yuan took Ruan Bai¡¯s hand all the way. Their palms were a little sweaty. She Yuan took out his key, opened the door and led Ruan Bai into the study. Ruan Bai remembered that it was in this place that he had seen that strange photo album two days ago. She Yuan helped him take off the long coat. Ruan Bai looked particularly cute in his own white woolen jacket. She Yuan couldn¡¯t help but stroke Ruan Bai¡¯s head. Ruan Bai glared at She Yuan and shook his hand off. She Yuan stretched out his arm and took down all the photo albums from the bookshelf. Ruan Bai looked blankly at the stack of albums and asked, ¡°What are these?¡± She Yuan opened every photo album and showed photos to Ruan Bai. Every photo album was dated, and even every photo was marked with the date and place it was taken. The album Ruan Bai had seen two days ago was a collection of photos of Ruan Bai and She Yuan which had been taken by their elders before Ruan Bai had lost his memory. As for these photo albums, they were full of Ruan Bai¡¯s photos that had been taken after their separation in childhood, like a witness of his growth. ¡°I like my childhood sweetheart, the little Ruan Bai. But I love the grown-up Ruan Bai more. Look at these photos. You looked charming when you sat at the table studying. When you won a prize, your bright smile entranced me. And I also like your innocence and virtue because you often help others on the sly.¡± She Yuan pointed at a picture and continued, ¡°This picture was taken in the midst of your graduation ceremony. At that time, you spoke on behalf of all the graduates. You said that you wanted to make contributions to the society instead of being a person who sat idle and enjoyed the fruits of others¡¯ labour.¡± Chapter 18 - The First Kiss Ruan Bai opened those albums one by one, which were full of his photographs in various periods and angles. Some of them were taken when he made a speech at the school opening ceremony. Some were taken in the midst of his graduation ceremony when he held a bunch of flowers in his hands. Some were taken when he stood on the platform participating in volunteer service. She Yuan didn¡¯t miss anything important that happened in Ruan Bai¡¯s growth. ¡°In the days before I met you again, I could only get to know you through these pictures.¡± As Ruan Bai leafed through these old picture albums, tears couldn¡¯t help but well up in his eyes. He held back his tears, looked up at She Yuan and asked, ¡°You missed me silently for more than ten years?¡± She Yuan nodded, reached out and wiped the tears away from Ruan Bai¡¯s eyes. ¡°Don¡¯t feel sorry for me. It was a hard time, but every time I think of you, I feel a sense of happiness. Maybe our separation is the best arrangement. Now you have grown up to be such an excellent person. You are so great, Bai.¡± At this moment, Ruan Bai couldn¡¯t restrain himself anymore. He went up to hold She Yuan closely and buried his head in She Yuan¡¯s arms. ¡°I¡¯m not a good person. I forgot you.¡± She Yuan patted Ruan Bai gently on the back and stroked him, just as what he had done to lull Ruan Bai to sleep in childhood. ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. I will never forget you.¡± She Yuan let go of Ruan Bai, bent slightly and held out his hand. ¡°Let me make a formal introduction of myself. My name is She Yuan, a 32-year-old single man. I¡¯m in good health. I have a stable job, a pure family background and excellent sexual ability. And I have never been married. Mr. Ruan Bai, can you accept me as your future husband?¡± Ruan Bai was amused by his words. He took She Yuan¡¯s hand and answered in a solemn tone, ¡°I will give your request my fullest consideration, Mr. She Yuan. You are a very nice person, even better than my Dave.¡± Seeing the prim look on Ruan Bai¡¯s face, She Yuan felt that he was so cute. She Yuan grasped Ruan Bai¡¯s hand and pulled Ruan Bai into his arms. If possible, he wanted to keep his arm around Ruan Bai forever and stay together with Ruan Bai every minute and every second. Leaning against She Yuan¡¯s chest, Ruan Bai raised his head and said, ¡°Mr. She, do you know what the ordinary people would think of you if they knew your behaviors? She Yuan looked at Ruan Bai doubtfully. After a pause Ruan Bai continued, ¡°They would regard you as a lecher.¡± ¡°Er¡­ ¡± For the first time, She Yuan, who always made a torrent of words in class, was rendered speechless. Ruan Bai continued to tease Ruan Bai, ¡°What¡¯s more, you know the law but break it. You are doubly guilty.¡± Ruan Bai laughed happily in She Yuan¡¯s arms. She Yuan couldn¡¯t find a proper reason to explain himself because what he had done was indeed indecent. Ruan Bai was pleased to see the helpless look on She Yuan¡¯s face. He pretended to be magnanimous and patted She Yuan on the back. ¡°But luckily, the kind-hearted victim doesn¡¯t intend to pursue the legal responsibility of your actions. I¡¯m really a nice person. Mr. She, do you agree?¡± She Yuan replied in all seriousness, ¡°Yes, you are so nice to me. But I feel so guilty and want to make amends to the victims.¡± Before Ruan Bai could react, She Yuan kissed him on the lips. The touch of their lips seemed to create an electric current which flowed through their blood and left a feeling of pleasure in their hearts. She Yuan slid his tongue into Ruan Bai¡¯s mouth, clumsily licking Ruan Bai¡¯s tender tongue. They were both beginners of kissing, so they just instinctively chased each other¡¯s tongue and exchanged saliva. Gradually, Ruan Bai became breathless. She Yuan let go of Ruan Bai, his lips moistened with Ruan Bai¡¯s spittle. ¡°You little fool, inhale!¡± Ruan Bai opened his mouth and took a few deep breaths. Embarrassed, he turned his head to prevent She Yuan from seeing his bright red face. Then, he raised his head, straightened up his neck and explained, ¡°It¡¯s my first kiss. I¡¯m unskillful because I lack experience. But I have a good learning ability. My kissing skills will surely improve in the future.¡± She Yuan burst into laughter at Ruan Bai¡¯s words. He gently stroked Ruan Bai¡¯s head and said, ¡°It¡¯s my first kiss too. But I¡¯m a teacher. Come one, let me teach you.¡± Chapter 19 - Honey, Open Your Mouth She Yuan proved himself to be the youngest professor with outstanding teaching ability in J University. Ruan Bai was diligent and studious. They kissed each other passionately. Gradually, Ruan Bai felt his limbs go weak, and couldn¡¯t help but let out a moan. ¡°As a student, you have overstepped the boundary,¡± said She Yuan. She Yuan let go of Ruan Bai whose saliva left She Yuan¡¯s lips with an erotic sheen. She Yuan stuck out his tongue and ran it around his lips. Ruan Bai flushed at the sight of him doing that. Ruan Bai was a little embarrassed. He looked down to avoid eye contact She Yuan. ¡°But I¡¯m very satisfied with your performance.¡± She Yuan cupped Ruan Bai¡¯s face in his hands and planted a sweet kiss on her forehead. Then he moved his lips down and kissed Ruan Bai¡¯s eyebrows, eyes and cheeks, like a devout pilgrim walking to his god cautiously. ¡°I have dreamed about you countless times. Now you are finally in my arms.¡± Ruan Bai didn¡¯t know what it felt like to be having a romance because he hadn¡¯t fallen in love with someone before. But now he felt his heart beating wildly as if it was going to jump out of his chest. It suddenly dawned on Ruan Bai that a person, who really liked someone, would feel shy and happy in front of his sweetheart. Ruan Bai had been hesitant and even at a loss, before satisfying himself that She Yuan really liked him. He didn¡¯t know how to restore the memory of his childhood, so he was very much afraid that She Yuan only liked the little Ruan Bai. But when he heard She Yuan¡¯s confession of love, he thought that he was the luckiest person in the world. Ruan Bai felt very lucky to be loved by She Yuan from small to large. She Yuan had silently accompanied him in his growth. Although he didn¡¯t remember what had happened in the past, he wanted to remember everything that would happen between him and She Yuan in the future. Thankfully, his love came back to him. Being passionately kissed by She Yuan, Ruan Bai felt his penis erect. He moved back a bit to avoid being felt by She Yuan, because it was really embarrassing. However, She Yuan, who gave all his attention to Ruan Bai all the time, instantly felt his physiological arousal because they two were too close together. In normal times, even She Yuan¡¯s students could hardly find him. But now he was in high spirits and wanted to teach Ruan Bai more. So he took a step forward to get closer to Ruan Bai and slightly moved his hips forward. His big elephant in his crotch had been standing straight up for a long while. She Yuan dropped a kiss on the side of Ruan Bai¡¯s mouth and smiled, ¡°You are not the only one who has a sex impulse. As long as I recall you, see you or approach you, I am aroused.¡± Ruan Bai put his hand on She Yuan¡¯s chest and tried to push him away. Without any courage to look straight at She Yuan, Ruan Bai said under his breath, ¡°I don¡¯t know why I have such a physiological reaction.¡± She Yuan¡¯s face was so close to Ruan Bai¡¯s that their nose tips touched and their breath caressed each other¡¯s face. ¡°I will teach you¡­¡± With that She Yuan put his hand into Ruan Bai¡¯s pajama trousers and held his erect delicate penis, the front end of which was moistened with his own juice sending forth a sweet fragrance. It was the smell of Ruan Bai¡¯s pheromone. To be honest, She Yuan could scarcely control himself. The smell was an overwhelming temptation to him. It was like putting a bag of drugs in front of an addict. However, the people, who were stuck in their desire, always had the fluke mind. She Yuan rested his head against Ruan Bai¡¯s shoulder. The gland in the back of Ruan Bai¡¯s neck seemed to consciously invite She Yuan to bite it. She Yuan put out his tongue and licked it. Ruan Bai couldn¡¯t help but let out a groan. This sound was the last straw that broke the camel¡¯s back. All logic left She Yuan. He pushed Ruan Bai onto a leather chair and pressed Ruan Bai down firmly beneath him. Ruan Bai¡¯s loose pajamas was such a convenience for She Yuan that he easily took off Ruan Bai¡¯s pants and hoisted Ruan Bai¡¯s legs on to his shoulders. Then he held Ruan Bai¡¯s penis with one hand, rubbing it up and down, and kept moving his hips to rub against Ruan Bai¡¯s inner thigh. Meanwhile, his other hand sneaked into Ruan Bai¡¯s pajamas and pinched Ruan Bai¡¯s lovely and soft nipple, then rubbed it repeatedly with the rough fingertips. Ruan Bai bit his lower lip to stop himself from groaning out. He knew that he would surely groan loudly if he opened his mouth. She Yuan lay on Ruan Bai and licked Ruan Bai¡¯s lips with his tongue. ¡°Honey, open your mouth.¡± Ruan Bai shook his head in disapproval. She yuan continued to coax her, ¡°Sweetie, be obedient, okay?¡± In the face of his tenderness, Ruan Bai couldn¡¯t refuse him anymore. Ruan Bai opened his mouth slightly, as a whimpering sound came out from his throat. Ruan Bai¡¯s obedience was like an invitation giving She Yuan a strong feeling of satisfaction. With his hands feeling Ruan Bai¡¯s delicate skin, She Yuan poked his tongue into Ruan Bai¡¯s mouth and gave Ruan Bai a long passionate kiss, as if he wanted to suck out all Ruan Bai¡¯s sweet juice. As his tongue covered with tiny granules swept over Ruan Bai¡¯s lips and tongue, Ruan Bai felt a thrill of pleasure over his whole body. Chapter 20 - I also Want to Help You Ruan Bai didn¡¯t know what it felt like to be in love before meeting She Yuan, and had no sexual experience. He even had little experience of masturbation, because the closure of his glands sharply reduced his sexual appetite. He was like an ascetic monk knowing nothing about the sensual pleasure and orgasm. In other words, he didn¡¯t know how happy it was to make love with his lover. She Yuan opened a taboo door for Ruan Bai, made his heart beat wildly and brought him a feeling of plenitude and pleasure. She Yuan¡¯s loving eyes, warm embrace and passionate kiss led Ruan Bai to endless aftertastes. For Ruan Bai, all this was the most exciting thing he had ever done. She Yuan was always cool, aloof, and distant. But at this moment, he was acting on his most primal instinct, looking sexy and charming. His eyes were slowly reddening with ravenous desire, but he tried so hard to stay rational. She Yuan dared not go any further. He was content to hug and kiss Ruan Bai. As for the deeper exchange of body and soul, he decided to do it on their wedding night. Although She Yuan had studied abroad for more than ten years, he was still a traditional oriental man underneath. Ruan Bai was the person he cherished most in the world. She Yuan wanted to marry Ruan Bai and give him a grand wedding, before having sex with him. What was more, She Yuan had no idea of Ruan Bai¡¯s physical condition. Considering the possibility of causing harm to Ruan Bai¡¯s body, logic prevailed and She Yuan refused to let his desire run rampant. She Yuan restrained himself as much as possible, and avoided frightening Ruan Bai. However, Ruan Bai acted recklessly. He abandoned himself to extreme pleasure that She Yuan brought to him. The moment their tongues and lips were separated, Ruan Bai groaned in an affectedly sweet voice, ¡°Brother Yu¡­¡± When Ruan Bai was a lovable little child, he always behaved in a spoiled manner. Before losing his memory, Ruan Bai loved to play with She Yuan and called him Brother Yu in a sweet voice, because Ruan Bai knew that She Yuan would meet all his demands. But circumstances change with the passage of time. This time when She Yuan heard Ruan Bai call him Brother Yu, he was charmed by the come-hither look on Ruan Bai¡¯s face and got sexually excited. His penis stood erect and set up a big tent, as semen slowly oozed from its top and wetted his pants. She Yuan restrained his surging desire with difficulty, as his forehead was wet with sweat. The entanglement of their pheromones was not only a constraint for an Omega but also an overwhelming attraction for an Alpha. A drop of sweat fell onto Ruan Bai¡¯s lips from She Yuan¡¯s nose tip. Ruan Bai blinked, stuck out his tongue and licked his lips. She Yuan¡¯s breathing sped up. Ruan Bai, who was directly facing him, felt She Yuan¡¯s hot breath on his face. ¡°Brother Yu, let me help you.¡± Ruan Bai reached out and took off She Yuan¡¯s pants to release his penis which was erect and triumphant for a long while. Ruan Bai was nervous, and his palms were a little sweaty. He wrapped his hand around She Yuan¡¯s veined penis and began to rub it up and down with the lubrication of semen. Ruan Bai raised his head and complained, ¡°It¡¯s too big, and I can¡¯t hold it¡­¡± His sweet complaint inflamed She Yuan¡¯s passion further. His big elephant trembled and became even bigger. The sound of his heavy breathing rang in Ruan Bai¡¯s ears and gave Ruan Bai a sense of achievement. He could also make She Yuan happy. They held each other¡¯s penis with hands. She Yuan kept pinching Ruan Bai¡¯s nipples gently and used every means possible to stimulate his sensitive parts. Finally, Ruan Bai couldn¡¯t stand it. He groaned loudly, as his semen was squirted out in jets and stained She Yuan¡¯s hand. The room was filled with the smell of his pheromone. But She Yuan didn¡¯t achieve his orgasm yet. She Yuan patted Ruan Bai¡¯s face and asked him to stand up and turn around. Ruan Bai obediently knelt on the leather chair with his back to She Yuan. When he raised his head and saw the bookshelf crammed with law books, he had an illusion that they were making love in the office. She Yuan put his penis between Ruan Bai¡¯s legs, and applied Ruan Bai¡¯s semen on the root of his thighs as a lubricant. Then She Yuan began to move wildly, his hip bones beating against Ruan Bai¡¯s soft, lovable buttocks. Gradually, it became red and swollen. While moving up and down, She Yuan pressed his chest against Ruan Bai¡¯s back and licked Ruan Bai¡¯s neck with his tongue. She Yuan had dreamed of having Ruan Bai for so many years. Now his dream came true. He got out of control. Ruan Bai felt like a boat adjusting himself to She Yuan¡¯s violent roll and rhythm. He couldn¡¯t help but beg, ¡°Brother Yu, slow down. Ah¡­¡± A mischievous smile crossed She Yuan¡¯s face. He turned a deaf ear to Ruan Bai¡¯s words and moved even faster. Ruan Bai felt a burning pain at the root of his thighs, and his nipples was red and swollen because She Yuan constantly pinched them. About 20 minutes later, She Yuan grunted in relief as his body trembled, and finished on Ruan Bai¡¯s ass, feeling the convulsions of the orgasm suck him dry. Chapter 21 - Let Me Give You a Bath She Yuan kept his eyes fixed on the gland in the back of Ruan Bai¡¯s neck during the sex. He did all he could to resist the impulse of biting the gland. Before he would lose control of himself, he put on the isolation bracelet. He always kept the isolation bracelet in his pocket, because he was afraid that one day he would lose his head and hurt Ruan Bai. Now it was proved that he was quite right. But Ruan Bai didn¡¯t know how hard She Yuan tried to stay rational. He only felt She Yuan¡¯s thick and sticky semen with a faint smell of alcohol spilled on his buttocks. He was like a cooked shrimp, his whole body reddening with shame. He turned around and faced She Yuan, then reproached She Yuan in a sweet and soft voice, acting like a spoiled child. ¡°Look at this, you are going too far.¡± She Yuan accepted the criticism with an open mind. After all, he not only vented his sexual desire on Ruan Bai, but also dirtied Ruan Bai¡¯s buttocks. ¡°It¡¯s my fault. I¡¯ll bathe you.¡± Ruan Bai nodded, but soon felt something was wrong. ¡°What? You want to bathe me?¡± As soon as he finished saying this, She Yuan picked him up and carried him to the bathroom. They two undressed each other, and stood under the shower to scrub and wash each other. While cleaning Ruan Bai¡¯s body, She Yuan kissed Ruan Bai on the lips gently. Ruan Bai raised his head and responded to his affection. ¡°I bathed you when you were a child like this.¡± Hearing what he said, Ruan Bai felt a little embarrassed. Wisely, he didn¡¯t continue the conversation; instead, he began to sing a tuneless song. ¡°What are you singing?¡± Ruan Bai was confused. ¡°I don¡¯t know. But I always instinctively hum this tune. I feel like I¡¯ve heard it before, but I don¡¯t remember the song title.¡± She Yuan shut his mouth. He heard this song from his grandmother. When he was a little baby, his grandmother often sang this song to lull him to sleep. So afterwards, when he coaxed Ruan Bai into sleeping or eating, he subconsciously hummed the song. She Yuan had a bold idea. Maybe he should help Ruan Bai regain his childhood memories. But it was not a good time to put forward this proposal. She Yuan didn¡¯t care very much whether Ruan Bai would get his memories back. Anyway, he would always remember all that had happened between him and Ruan Bai in childhood. But what if the gland operation had caused some damage to Ruan Bai? If he helped Ruan Bai regain his memories and repair his glands, would it be good for Ruan Bai¡¯s health? This was what She Yuan was most concerned about. She Yuan washed Ruan Bai clean, and then quickly took a shower. He wrapped Ruan Bai in a big towel, and they walked out of the bathroom together. ¡°Wait for me here. I¡¯ll fetch you some clothes.¡± After She Yuan walked away, Ruan Bai became worried. He rolled his eyes and glanced around the flat, at a loss what to do. A few seconds later, he raised his hand, held the towel tightly, and fiddled with the white fur on it. In order to escape from embarrassment, he released Dave. Ruan Bai was very busy today, so he gave Dave a lot of energy sticks in advance. Dave was happy and carefree eating his favorite food. So, when Ruan Bai suddenly released Dave from his optical computer, Dave was taken aback. But as he steadied himself and saw his master, he felt relieved. As soon as Dave appeared in the room, She Yuan¡¯s optical computer rang. It was a request from Doctor. He wanted to get out. She Yuan sighed helplessly and pressed the button to release Doctor. Dave was already not afraid of Doctor; instead, when he saw Doctor, he was happy and immediately ran over to Doctor. Doctor wrapped his long body around Dave who, however, had no fear and even rubbed his small nose against Doctor¡¯s head. Ruan Bai set his mind at rest when he saw Dave playing happily with Doctor. Standing at the door of the bathroom like a guard, Ruan Bai stole a glance at She Yuan from time to time, and refused to walk into the bedroom. She Yuan gave Ruan Bai a T-shirt and shorts. ¡°These are my clothes of the smallest size. I don¡¯t know if they suit you. The underpants are new. I have never worn them.¡± Ruan Bai nodded and took the clothes from She Yuan. ¡°Can you turn around?¡± She Yuan gave a smile and obediently turned his back on Ruan Bai. Ruan Bai put on the clothes as quickly as possible. Although they were She Yuan¡¯s smallest clothes, they were too big for Ruan Bai. After getting dressed, he looked like a child in adult clothes. The half-sleeved T-shirt looked like three-quarter sleeved dress on him. The underpants were too big for him too. Ruan Bai tied a knot in his underpants to stop them from slipping down. ¡°Okay, now you can turn around and face me.¡± She Yuan turned around and looked at Ruan Bai. His hair was still wet, and he was wearing She Yuan¡¯s clothes. The warm family atmosphere between them touched the softest, deepest place in She Yuan¡¯s heart. He had fantasized countless times about living a romantic life with Ruan Bai like an ordinary couple¨C they would hug each other and fall asleep together every night; when they got up, they would kiss each other. She Yuan gave Ruan Bai such a T-shirt although he knew that it was too big for Ruan bai. He thought that Ruan Bai would look particularly charming in this T-shirt. Facts proved that he was right. The big T-shirt covered Ruan bai¡¯s hips and underpants, and his two slender, straight and long legs were exposed. Chapter 22 - Insert It into his Back Door She Yuan dried Ruan Bai¡¯s hair with a bath towel. Now they were wearing the same aroma. She Yuan couldn¡¯t help smiling. After combing Ruan Bai¡¯s soft hair, She Yuan took Ruan Bai¡¯s hand and led him to the bedroom. Ruan Bai paused at the door, uncertain whether to walk in. ¡°You want me to sleep in your¡­¡± She Yuan turned his head to look at Ruan Bai and said, ¡°Yes. Where else can you sleep besides my bedroom?¡± Ruan Bai fought the urge to giggle and nodded, ¡°Oh, all right.¡± They two snuggled up to each other on the bed. She Yuan held Ruan Bai in his arms. Ruan Bai looked up at She Yuan¡¯s jaw and reached out to touch it. ¡°You are in need of a shave.¡± She Yuan deliberately rubbed Ruan Bai¡¯s delicate face with the stubble, which tickled Ruan Bai. He couldn¡¯t help laughing and giggling. ¡°Stop it! I¡¯m ticklish.¡± She Yuan obediently stopped and gave Ruan Bai a kiss. ¡°Mr She, let me shave you tomorrow.¡± She Yuan nodded, ¡°Okay¡­¡± They lay on the bed and chatted for a while. Ruan Bai was so tired that he soon fell asleep in She Yuan¡¯s arms. The couple held each other close, sleeping soundly¡­ The next morning, She Yuan woke up first. Instead of waking Ruan Bai up, he stared at Ruan Bai¡¯s sleeping face with loving eyes. It was a kind of happiness to see his lover as soon as he woke up. But his happiness didn¡¯t last long. Suddenly, Ruan Bai¡¯s cell phone buzzed. She Yuan immediately reached for the phone, trying to turn down the volume, but it was too late. Ruan Bai was already waken up by the sound of the phone. Dizzy and groggy, Ruan Bai answers the phone, ¡°Hello, Ruan Bai speaking.¡± Qi Qiuyu¡¯s roar came from the other end of the phone, ¡°Ruan Bai, where are you? ¡± She Yuan and Ruan Bai looked at each other and felt a little guilty. Last night She Yuan had brought Ruan Bai to his flat on the spur of the moment. Then they had bared their heart to each other and satisfied each other¡¯s lust by all means. However, they had completely forgotten to report to Ruan Bai¡¯s parents. ¡°Ah¡­ Mom¡­ Last night I¡­ I went to¡­¡± Ruan Bai didn¡¯t know how to lie. Overwhelmed with a guilty conscience, he was at a loss what to say. She Yuan took the phone from Ruan Bai. ¡°Hello, Auntie¡­ I am She Yuan. He¡¯s at my house now. Yeah, he¡¯s very safe. You can rest assured.¡± It was not easy to fool Qi Qiuyu. ¡°In my view, your house is the least safe place.¡± Although She Yuan was an eloquent barrister, he didn¡¯t know how to refute his future mother-in-law. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Auntie. I¡¯ll send him home after breakfast.¡± ¡®Alas! A grown boy can¡¯t be kept at home. Since he wants to be with She Yuan, how can I stop him?¡¯ Qi Qiuyu thought to herself. She compromised, ¡°Okay.¡± Ruan Bai stuck out his tongue at She Yuan and said, ¡°My mother will scold me¡­¡± She Yuan rubbed Ruan Bai¡¯s hair and comforted, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. It¡¯s all my fault. I will explain to Auntie.¡± ¡°Yes, it¡¯s all your fault indeed!¡± Although Ruan Bai had grown up to be a sensible and obedient young man, he was still a naughty boy underneath. When he made sure that the surroundings were safe and harmless, he would act like a spoiled child, especially in front of She Yuan. They two went to the bathroom to wash up. After washing face and brushing teeth, She Yuan picked up Ruan Bai and placed him on the marble-topped washstand. ¡°Last night you said that you wanted to shave me.¡± Yesterday, Ruan Bai was passionate and bold in the darkness. But now he was a little shy. But for he had promised to shave She Yuan last night, he had to fulfill his promise. He applied shaving foam on She Yuan¡¯s face. A few seconds later, She Yuan¡¯s cheeks and chin were covered with foam. Ruan Bai looked at She Yuan and was amused. ¡°Hahaha, you look like Santa Claus¡­¡± She Yuan indulged Ruan Bai. He held Ruan Bai¡¯s hand and slowly shaved off the stubble on his chin. ¡°All right, I¡¯ve learned it. Let go of my hand!¡± Ruan Bai shook off She Yuan¡¯s hand and insisted on shaving She Yuan by himself. He raised his head and carefully shaved She Yuan¡¯s beard with a razor. Now and then Ruan Bai touched She Yuan¡¯s chin to make sure he was clean-shaven. She Yuan was tickled by Ruan Bai¡¯s fingers. He put his hands on both sides of Ruan Bai¡¯s body. Ruan Bai obediently sat on the marble-topped washstand with his legs apart. She Yuan stood between Ruan Bai¡¯s legs. Seen from afar, it seemed as if Ruan Bai was clinging to She Yuan like a koala, while She Yuan buried the front part of his body inside Ruan Bai. Chapter 23 - Pinch on the Buttock Chapter 23: Pinch on the Buttock Translator: Ruriko ¡°According to romance novels and comics, I would cut your chin by accident, and then you would say, ¡®Lick up the blood on my face.¡¯ Finally, we would make love in the bathroom!¡± She Yuan was amused by Ruan Bai¡¯s strange idea. He rubbed Ruan Bai¡¯s nose with his forefinger and said, ¡°We can do that at any time if you want.¡± With that, he held Ruan Bai in his arms and pressed his chin, which was covered with foam, against Ruan Bai¡¯s cheek. Ruan Bai laughed and dodged. However, the marble-topped washstand was not too big, and Ruan Bai was enfolded in She Yuan¡¯s arms, so he failed to dodge at last. Ruan Bai was wriggling in She Yuan¡¯s arms and rubbed his frothy face against She Yuan¡¯s. The lovey-dovey couple behaved like fools in love. After a while, Ruan Bai strictly forbade She Yuan to touch him, and they two finally walked out of the bathroom. Ruan Bai was still wearing the oversized T-shirt with his slender, long legs uncovered. She Yuan suddenly regretted having Ruan Bai wear the T-shirt because it was a big challenge for him to restrain himself from being sexually excited by the sight of Ruan Bai¡¯s bare legs. ¡°Is there anything to eat in the house? ¡°Ruan Bai asked, as he opened the refrigerator. ¡°Wow, nothing! If you don¡¯t need the refrigerator, you can give it to someone in need.¡± ¡°No, there¡¯s nothing in the refrigerator.¡± She Yuan¡¯s reply came late. Ruan Bai spread his hands and asked, ¡°Then, what¡¯s for breakfast, Mr She?¡± She Yuan lived in the college family dormitory building only when he worked overtime or needed to get up early the next morning. In other words, he scarcely lived here. So he didn¡¯t know if there were any food markets around here. But he couldn¡¯t ask Ruan Bai to go with him because Ruan Bai had no suitable clothes. ¡°I¡¯ll go downstairs to buy some breakfast. You stay at home, okay?¡± Ruan Bai nodded, ¡°Okay. You go ahead.¡± With the help of the navigation system of his optical computer, She Yuan arrived at a food market and bought some of Ruan Bai¡¯s favorite foods as breakfast. Then he went to the nearest shopping mall and bought a suit of clothes for Ruan Bai. The salesgirl felt puzzled. She had never seen such a strange person like She Yuan who went shopping with breakfast in his hands, especially when the shops just opened early in the morning. But anyway she was happy because She Yuan bought many things in her clothing store. Even though She Yuan did the shopping as fast as possible, it was nearly ten o¡¯clock when he returned to his flat. As soon as he walked in the door, he saw Ruan Bai playing happily with Dave. Ruan Bai cuddled his guarding pig, and Doctor lay on the floor with a glint of grievance in his eyes. She Yuan fully understood Doctor¡¯s feelings. At the sight of She Yuan, Ruan Bai put Dave aside and ran to him. Like a hunter, Doctor wrapped himself around Dave the moment Ruan Bai put Dave down. Dave liked the cold touch of Doctor¡¯s body, so he had no intention of struggling. He grunted and continued to play with the sand table on the floor. When She Yuan reached out to close the door, Ruan Bai suddenly jumped on She Yuan¡¯s back and buried his head on She Yuan¡¯s neck. ¡°You smell nice.¡± She Yuan has just come back from outside and was a little sweaty. He gave off a strong smell of the Alpha¡¯s pheromones which was a powerful attraction for his Omega. She Yuan put the food and clothes on the top of the shoe cabinet, and held Ruan Bai¡¯s buttocks in his hands to steady Ruan Bai. Ruan Bai only wore a pair of underpants, so She Yuan¡¯s hand directly touched Ruan Bai¡¯s ample, smooth buttocks. With a mischievous spark in his eyes, She Yuan deliberately gave Ruan Bai a pinch on the buttock. ¡°Ah¡­¡± Ruan Bai let out a groan and instantly jumped down from She Yuan¡¯s back. With a bright red face, he pointed at She Yuan and said angrily, ¡°You lecher!¡± She Yuan nodded, acquiescing in Ruan Bai¡¯s comment. Ruan Bai had called him the lecher for two times within one day. Professor She, the good-looking young man of excellent character, would become a hungry wolf in human clothing sooner or later. Ruan Bai was very dissatisfied with She Yuan¡¯s perfunctory attitude. He rolled his eyes at She Yuan resentfully, picked up the food on the top of the shoe cabinet and went to the dining room. Chapter 24 - Mr. She, you are so nice! She Yuan followed Ruan Bai to the dining room. Then they two sat face to face to eat breakfast. Munching the steamed creamy custard bun which was one of his favorite food, Ruan Bai nodded and said happily, ¡°The steamed creamy custard bun is really delicious!¡± Just as the words fell from Ruan Bai¡¯s lips, She Yuan stood up and walked up to the seat beside Ruan Bai. ¡°You want to sit here?¡± asked Ruan Bai. She Yuan nodded and moved his plate and chopsticks into position. Just after She Yuan sat down, Ruan Bai reached out for another steamed creamy custard bun. She Yuan twisted his head around to look at Ruan Bai. ¡°Is there anything on my face?¡± Ruan Bai was a little embarrassed. He didn¡¯t look elegant when he was eating. But he wanted to project a good image in front of his beloved. So he quickly swallowed the food, and was about to wipe his mouth when She Yuan stopped him. She Yuan leaned forward, stuck out his tongue and licked the jam off Ruan Bai¡¯s lips. Then he planted constant kisses on Ruan Bai¡¯s lips and tried to put his tongue into Ruan Bai¡¯s mouth. ¡°Sweetie, open your mouth.¡± Ruan Bai obediently opened his mouth. She Yuan smoothly slid his tongue into Ruan Bai¡¯s mouth and licked every inch of his mouth cavity, sucking the sweet juice. Ruan Bai liked the feeling of being kissed by She Yuan. He could feel a current of desire and attachment surging up inside him, which brought him unheard-of joy. He felt both curious and afraid. On the one hand, he was attracted by the novelty and mystery of sex and felt curious; on the other hand, he was afraid of losing control of his faculties. But at the sight of She Yuan¡¯s handsome face, Ruan Bai was not afraid anymore. As a beginner, Ruan Bai¡¯s greatest advantage was that he was obedient to his teacher. He did whatever She Yuan asked him to do. Sometimes he drew inferences about other cases from one instance, and applied what he had learned. He was definitely a good student to Professor She. Ruan Bai timidly stuck out his tongue to respond to She Yuan, who was surprised but soon overwhelmed with joy. He quickly twined his tongue around Ruan Bai¡¯s and kissed his loved one harder. Ruan Bai couldn¡¯t help but groan and moan. His sweet voice pleased She Yuan. The kiss lasted five or six minutes. She Yuan reluctantly let go of Ruan Bai because if he didn¡¯t stop, Ruan Bai couldn¡¯t go home. Afraid of going further, they sensibly left each other¡¯s lips. She Yuan drew back, but his saliva left Ruan Bai¡¯s rosy lips with an erotic sheen. Ruan Bai stuck out his tongue and ran it around his lips. She Yuan rubbed Ruan Bai¡¯s lips with his fingertips and said, ¡°Sooner or later I will¡­¡± Ruan Bai didn¡¯t understand what he said, and She Yuan didn¡¯t explain it to Ruan Bai. He just asked Ruan Bai to continue to eat breakfast. Ruan Bai picked up a steamed creamy custard bun with his chopsticks and put it in She Yuan¡¯s plate, trying to recommend his favorite food to his favorite man. ¡°Try it! It¡¯s really delicious.¡± She Yuan didn¡¯t have a sweet tooth, but he was willing to try sweet food and make changes for the sake of Ruan Bai. He took a bite of the steamed creamy custard bun and nodded. ¡°Yeah, it tastes delicious. ¡± Ruan Bai was very happy that She Yuan liked the steamed creamy custard bun too. ¡°I told you that it¡¯s delicious. And it¡¯s sweet, isn¡¯t it?¡± She Yuan took a mouthful of porridge and said, ¡°I knew it was sweet.¡± Ruan Bai felt puzzled and asked, ¡°Huh? How did you know that? Have you eaten it before?¡± She Yuan shook his head and answered, ¡°I tasted it in your mouth just now.¡± Hearing this, Ruan Bai flushed to the ears. He picked up a steamed creamy custard bun and stuffed it into She Yuan¡¯s mouth so as to stop She Yuan from saying any more. She Yuan looked at Ruan Bai¡¯s red face, and felt something delicious stir within him. After breakfast, Ruan Bai wanted to go home, but had no suitable clothes. With puppy dog eyes, he said to She Yuan, ¡± Mr. She, if my mother sees me return home in pajamas, I will be done for.¡± She Yuan handed Ruan Bai the new clothes and said, ¡°I have bought the clothes for you.¡± Ruan Bai threw his arms round She Yuan¡¯s waist in delight. ¡°Mr. She, you are so nice!¡± With that Ruan Bai took the clothes from She Yuan and was about to go to the bedroom. However, She Yuan blocked his way. ¡°You can only change your clothes in front of me.¡± Chapter 25 - The underpants youre wearing is mine Ruan Bai didn¡¯t expect that She Yuan would be so shameless. She Yuan barred Ruan Bai¡¯s way, making him unable to run away. Ruan Bai buried his head in She Yuan¡¯s chest and said, ¡°Mr. She, please let me change clothes alone.¡± She Yuan straightened his face, looking like a grave judge. ¡°No way.¡± Ruan Bai tried every approach to persuade She Yuan, but in vain. She Yuan had no consideration for Ruan Bai¡¯s shyness and insisted that Ruan Bai should change clothes in front of him. Ruan Bai stood on tiptoe, wrapped his arms around She Yuan¡¯s neck, and kissed She Yuan on the lips. ¡°Mr. She, is that okay? ¡± The kiss slightly stirred She Yuan from his resolve, but he didn¡¯t lose his mind. He knew clearly what he wanted. He looked at Ruan Bai and pointed at his own lips. Ruan Bai was pleased with himself for making She Yuan change his mind. In smug satisfaction Ruan Bai leaned forward, and licked and bit She Yuan¡¯s lips. The kiss lasted for a long while. After the kiss, Ruan Bai was going to the bedroom to change clothes, but She Yuan pulled him back. In a soft voice, Ruan Bai coaxed, ¡°Darling, I will give you another kiss after I get dressed, okay?¡± She Yuan remained unmoved. ¡°I think you misunderstood me. I didn¡¯t promise you anything.¡± Ruan Bai was devastated by She Yuan¡¯s cruel words. Was there no trust between people? ¡°Then, why did you point at your lips? Didn¡¯t you want me to kiss you?¡± asked Ruan Bai. She Yuan answered, ¡°Yes, I did. But I didn¡¯t promise to let you change your clothes alone.¡± ¡®You old rascal!¡¯ Ruan Bai cursed in his heart. But he knew that he couldn¡¯t win. It was so close to noon. If he didn¡¯t return home as soon as possible, he would get a good scolding from his mother. Ruan Bai had no other choice but give in to She Yuan. After making up his mind, Ruan Bai closed his eyes and took off the big T-shirt. She Yuan was very satisfied and with gratitude, he began to enjoy Ruan Bai¡¯s perfect naked body. The rosy nipples on Ruan Bai¡¯s white chest stood erect the moment they were exposed to the cold air. She Yuan reached out and rubbed them with his callused fingertips. As a result, Ruan Bai¡¯s nipples and breasts reddened. Ruan Bai threw the T-shirt to the floor and slapped She Yuan hard on the back of the hand. She Yuan didn¡¯t get angry. He crossed his arms over his chest and stared at Ruan Bai with a smile. Ruan Bai put on the clothes She Yuan bought for him one by one. To be frank, Professor She really had good taste in clothes. These clothes were pleasant to the eye, and suited Ruan Bai very well. ¡°How do you know my size? ¡± ¡°I felt your body with my hands countless times last night.¡± Ruan Bai was speechless. He didn¡¯t want to say anything more. Anyway, She Yuan would lead the conversation to a subject which had a touch of salacity. Ruan Bai got dressed and pirouetted in front of She Yuan. ¡°Do I look good?¡± She Yuan nodded and looked directly into Ruan Bai¡¯s eyes. ¡°Yes.¡± No one knew if She Yuan was talking about the clothes or Ruan Bai. Anyway, Ruan Bai looked nice in these clothes. Under She Yuan¡¯s intense gaze, Ruan Bai felt shy. But anyway, being praised by the man he loved filled him with joy. He showed a big smile. ¡°Mr. She, I¡¯m leaving.¡± With that, Ruan Bai walked towards the door. She Yuan followed Ruan Bai to change shoes and intended to drive him home. When Ruan Bai reached out to open the door, She Yuan suddenly felt reluctant to part with Ruan Bai. She Yuan seized Ruan Bi¡¯s arm, pulled him back and pinned him against the wall. Then, She Yuan buried his head in Ruan Bai¡¯s shoulder and took a long slow breath, inhaling deeply. The smell of milky sweetness from Ruan Bai wafted into She Yuan¡¯s nostrils. With curious eyes, Ruan Bai looked at Professor She who acted like a spoiled child. Ruan Bai felt deeply attached to She Yuan and didn¡¯t want to separate with him. But Ruan Bai had to go home. Ruan Bai raised his hand to stroke She Yuan¡¯s hair, like a father coaxing his little baby, and said gently, ¡°I will come to see you tomorrow¡­¡± She Yuan nodded, straightened up and whispered in Ruan Bai¡¯s ear, ¡°The underpants you¡¯re wearing is mine.¡± With a bright red face, Ruan Bai pushed She Yuan away and went downstairs first. She Yuan gave a triumphant smile because he succeeded in teasing Ruan Bai once again. She Yuan chased Ruan Bai downstairs, and drove him home. Chapter 26 - Sorry On the way to Ruan Bai¡¯s house, they two spoke very little. They both kept silent, not because Ruan Bai was still angry but because the smell of pheromones filled the car, making them feel hot and dry. They tried their best to control themselves and was not in the vein for chatting. In this kind of airtight space, they both suffered. Ruan Bai felt that something uncontrolled inside him was slowly rearing its head. However, he couldn¡¯t tell what it was. He didn¡¯t even know whether all Omegas would feel like this. Ruan Bai rolled down the window. As the window was opened, the fresh air came in and the pheromones were released from the car. Both of them felt a lot more relaxed and let out a sigh of relief at the same time. Ruan Bai glanced at She Yuan out of the corner of his eye, and realized that She Yuan was not feeling quite well too. Ruan Bai¡¯s house was not far from the college. Before long, they arrived at the destination. Before Ruan Bai could move, She Yuan unfastened his own seat belt, leaned forward and pinned Ruan Bai against the car seat. Ruan Bai thought She Yuan was going to kiss him, so he nervously closed his eyes. He was so cute that She Yuan couldn¡¯t resist the impulse of playing a trick on him. Without doing anything, She Yuan just leaned against Ruan Bai and looked at him. Ruan Bai waited for a long while, but didn¡¯t receive a kiss from She Yuan. He opened one eye and saw She Yuan looking at him with a teasing smile. Ruan Bai immediately understood She Yuan¡¯s intentions and angrily reached out to push him away. But She Yuan kept his body unmoved. ¡°What do you expect me to do?¡± ¡°Nothing!¡± ¡°Then, why did you close your eyes?¡± ¡°I¡¯m sleepy.¡± Ruan Bai turned his head to avoid looking at She Yuan and resorted to sophistry. The adorable expression on Ruan Bai¡¯s face hit the heart of She Yuan. He held Ruan Bai¡¯s hand. ¡°I will do what you expect me to do.¡± With that he kissed Ruan Bai. The sweet kiss left Ruan Bai dazed and dizzy. For a moment, they were fused together as She Yuan¡¯s lips locked onto Ruan Bai¡¯s like he would never let go. After the kiss, they both breathed heavily. Ruan Bai implored, ¡°No, don¡¯t kiss me again¡­¡± She Yuan didn¡¯t dare to go on kissing Ruan Bai, because he knew if he went further, his desire would run rampant and Ruan Bai would have no chance to get out of the car. He unfastened Ruan Bai¡¯s seat belt, and they got out together. Ruan Bai looked at She Yuan with curious eyes and didn¡¯t understand why She Yuan followed him out of the car. ¡°Why did you get out?¡± She Yuan didn¡¯t explain. ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡± Ruan Bai didn¡¯t have the key because yesterday he had gone downstairs in such a hurry that he had worn only his pajama. Besides, he had had no chance to report to his parents because he had been directly taken away by She Yuan last night. With a guilty conscience, Ruan Bai rang the doorbell. Qi Qiuyu opened the door. She Yuan stood beside Ruan Bai quietly. No matter how cold and serious he used to be, now he was just a junior who had made mistakes. ¡°Mom, I¡¯m back.¡± Qi Qiuyu gave her son a cold look, then turned to look at the guy who had taken her son away without her permission. ¡°Oh, you are back? Do you regard our home as nothing more than a hotel? Even if you think so, you should give back the key of your hotel room to the receptionist before leaving¡­¡± Speaking of which, she turned to She Yuan and continued, ¡°Yuan, you two are not married yet. How could you take him away without telling me?¡± Ruan Bai stood obediently in front of his mother and admitted his mistakes. When Qiqiu Yu was speaking, Ruan Bai nodded repeatedly as if to say, ¡°Mom, you are quite right. It¡¯s all my fault.¡± He had a good attitude. It was nothing for She Yuan to be scolded by Qi Qiuyu. He knew that he deserved a scolding because what he had done worried Ruan Bai¡¯s parents. But when he saw Qi Qiuyu scold Ruan Bai , he felt uncomfortable. He pulled Ruan Bai behind him and bowed to Qi Qiuyu. ¡°Auntie, I¡¯m terribly sorry to have worried you because I took him away without your permission. If you are still angry, you can punish me. I just hope you can take care of your health.¡± Qi Qiuyu had the right to lecture her son, but had no right to scold her friend¡¯s son. Moreover, She Yuan had already offered a sincere apology for his behaviour. So, even though she was still angry, for the sake of her best friend Li Qingge who was She Yuan¡¯s mother, she could¡¯t vent her anger on She Yuan. Ruan Bai stuck his head out from behind She Yuan, as his eyes wandered restlessly over Qi Qiuyu¡¯s face, trying to read her thoughts from her expression. Qi Qiuyu made a threatening gesture to him, hinting that he¡¯d better not get carried away. Ruai Bai stuck out his tongue at her. Chapter 27 - Because I Always Want To Do Something Bad To You Qi Qiuyu didn¡¯t feel that she could vent her anger on She Yuan. She said to She Yuan, ¡°I won¡¯t ban you two from having a romance. But you should report to me before you take him away. You are quite independent, but my son is a little fool. I¡¯m always worried about him.¡± Ruan Bai really wanted to declare that he was not a little fool. If he was a little fool, how could he have won the first place for many years running and even got a postgraduate recommendation from his university? But Ruan Bai didn¡¯t dare to say anything. He stood still, head bowed, and listened to his mother with great patience. She Yuan nodded, ¡°Yes, Auntie, you are right. Next time I take him out, I will let you know in advance.¡± Qi Qiuyu suddenly felt that something was wrong. Ruan Bai standing behind She Yuan, was on the verge of laughing. Professor She was so good at playing with language. ¡°Auntie, I have to go now. I¡¯ll come to visit you and Uncle another day.¡± Qi Qiuyu nodded and saw him off. She Yuan went downstairs and drove to the nearest shopping mall. He bought all the home products that Ruan Bai might use, including desk, chairs, underwear and so on. In the afternoon, he asked the workers of the furniture shop to deliver the new furniture to his house and arrange the new desk across from his desk so that Ruan Bai could study or work at the desk next time. Then he called Ruan Bai¡¯s tutor and asked him to make a list of their lab¡¯s equipment. Then he bought everything in the list and planned to install a laboratory for Ruan Bai in another house. When he finished the shopping, it was already past nine o¡¯clock. He lay down on the sofa for a rest. But before long, he received a call from Ruan Bai. ¡°What are you doing, Mr. She?¡± ¡°I¡¯m having a resting. This afternoon I bought a lot of things. You can come and have a look in a few days.¡± Ruan Bai laughed gaily. ¡°What did you buy?¡± She Yuan had no intention of keeping Ruan Bai guessing, but he had bought so many things that he couldn¡¯t enumerate them all. ¡°You will see in a few days. What did you do this afternoon?¡± Ruan Bai began to report to She Yuan about what he had done this afternoon, just like a primary school student answering his teacher¡¯s question in class. ¡°After you left, my mother scolded me for a while. She also told me to take extra security precautions when I stayed with you. But I can¡¯t understand why. You¡¯re not a bad guy.¡± She Yuan gave a meaningful smile and said, ¡°You do indeed need to take extra security precautions when you stay with me.¡± ¡°Ah? ¡± ¡°Because I always want to do something bad to you.¡± Ruan Bai couldn¡¯t help but imagine the scene at the other end of the phone. She Yuan had a handsome face and an air of asceticism. Ruan Bai was so curious about She Yuan¡¯s expression when She Yuan said this. Ruan Bai was a little embarrassed to continue the conversation. His voice had just been high, but now became low and nasal. It felt like Ruan Bai was whispering in She Yuan¡¯s ear. ¡°Then I played with Dave for a while¡­¡± Ruan Bai kept talking about little nothings of life. His remarks were not much fun, but She Yuan listened to him patiently. Gradually, Ruan Bai fell asleep. She Yuan once had to keep away from Ruan Bai. Even though he had so many pictures of Ruan Bai, there was still an aching emptiness in his heart. He couldn¡¯t approach or touch Ruan Bai who always seemed so far away from him. Actually, he didn¡¯t plan to meet Ruan Bai so early. His original plan to clean up all his enemies abroad and make sure there was no danger before going to Ruan Bai. In the past, She Yuan¡¯s father had taken She Yuan and Li Qingge abroad in a bid to protect them. However, the political struggle was cruel, and failure was irreparable. She Yuan¡¯s father turned to industry and commerce and became a successful businessman. But their enemies still haunted them like a nightmare. When She Yuan was young, there were always no less than four bodyguards around him. Even under protection, his mother was once kidnapped. Since he returned to China, he had been watched by the enemies. He didn¡¯t dare to risk Ruan Bai¡¯s safety, so he always stayed away from Ruan Bai. But he hadn¡¯t expected that he would meet Ruan Bai in such a dramatic way. It must be fate. That bully sow, Ruan Bai¡¯s most precious pig was one of ingredients in their reunion. She Yuan started thinking about how to reciprocate that sow. Anyway, he didn¡¯t want his young benefactor to be a dish in the canteen. Chapter 28 - Its My Wife Who Raises The Pigs She Yuan took out his cell phone and made a call to a friend who ran a farm. ¡°What¡¯s up? It¡¯s very late.¡± ¡°Do you have a farm in the suburbs?¡± ¡°Yes. Why do you ask me that?¡± ¡°I want to send some pigs to your farm. Please make some room for them.¡± Chen Fei felt very puzzled. ¡°Aren¡¯t you a legal worker? Why are you raising pigs now?¡± She Yuan answered Chen Fei¡¯s query. ¡°It¡¯s my wife who raises the pigs.¡± ¡°Shit! Don¡¯t show off! Think about the single people.¡± Chen Fei paused for half a minute before he finally took it in. ¡°Oh gosh! Yuan, who¡¯s that unfortunate person?¡± She Yuan didn¡¯t answer. Chen Fei suddenly had a brainwave, ¡°Is that person your childhood sweetheart?¡± She Yuan answered simply, ¡°Yes.¡± Chen Fei patted himself on the forehead. ¡°I was always wondering why you had lived like an ascetic monk over the years. Now I see. You were waiting for him, right? You are really a lucky dog. After so many years, he still belongs to you. We used to scare you saying that you would lose your little wife if you went abroad. At that time, you got very angry and beat us up. Now you finally get what you want. Congratulations, Yuan!¡± She Yuan replied in a happy tone, ¡°Thank you. Remember to make room for his pigs so that he can get them to your farm.¡± Chen Fei gave a ready consent, ¡°No problem. Even if our sister-in-law wants my farm, I will give it to him.¡± ¡°Thank you.¡± They two had a brief chat before hanging up. Chen Fei had a loose tongue and couldn¡¯t keep anything to himself, so that night all their mutual friends knew that She Yuan had a boyfriend. They all sent text messages to She Yuan, asking about what happened. She Yuan added them to a group chat. Many people in the group chat didn¡¯t know one another. She Yuan called together all his friend and said, ¡°It¡¯s true that I¡¯m in love.¡± After saying that, She Yuan retreated from the group chat. What he said sounded like a bomb exploding in his circle of friends. She Yuan paid no more attention to them. His life was his own business. He lay down on the bed, opened the photo album near his pillow. It was full of Ruan Bai¡¯s pictures taken in high school. He looked at the pictures for a while and went to sleep. Before falling asleep, he recalled that he had bought a school uniform for Ruan Bai at that time. Maybe in the future he could ask Ruan Bai to wear the school uniform when they had sex. A few days later, She Yuan went to Ruan Bai¡¯s home early in the morning. Ruan Bai and his parents were having breakfast when the doorbell rang. With a shrimp dumpling in his mouth, Ruan Bai ran to open the door. At the sight of She Yuan standing outside the door, he closed the door in a reflex action. In the drawing room, Qi Qiuyu raised her voice and asked, ¡°Bai, who is it?¡± Ruan Bai replied at once, ¡°He knocked on the wrong door. Mom, I¡¯m full. Now I¡¯m going for a walk with Dave!¡± Qi Qiuyu wanted to say something more, but Ruan Bai had run out of the room. Qi Qiuyu turned to her husband, her face puzzled, and asked, ¡°Is it necessary to walk a pig?¡± Ruan Changhu shook his head with a smile. Over the years, Ruan Bai had never gone for a walk with Dave early in the morning. But in order not to provoke his wife, Ruan Changhu chose to turn a blind eye to Ruan Bai¡¯s lame lie. ¡°Let¡¯s get back to breakfast. This dish is iron-rich. You should eat more.¡± While saying that, he put the food in Qi Qiuyu¡¯s bowl. She Yuan didn¡¯t dare to knock on the door. With a guilty conscience, he waited quietly outside. After a while Ruan Bai came out. Ruan Bai slept very well last night, so he was feeling energetic now. He wore a ginger-coloured hoodie, a beige coat, classic-style jeans and white skateboard shoes, looking like an obedient, good student. These clothes were all bought by She Yuan. She Yuan wore a tailored suit and a black overcoat as usual, having an air of the elite. They two got into the car. She Yuan helped Ruan Bai fasten the seat-belt and stole a kiss from him. Although Ruan Bai was shy, he kissed Professor She back. Then they looked at each other with loving eyes. ¡°You have no class today, right?¡± asked She Yuan. ¡°Yes! I have only one class a week this term. Where are we going?¡± Chapter 29 - A Big Surprise ¡°Just come with me.¡± ¡°¡­ Set out at dawn?¡± She Yuan was amused and pinched Ruan Bai¡¯s cheek. Ruan Bai was still smiling. Anyway, he was happy being with She Yuan whatever they did together. He had never felt this way before, because at that time he hadn¡¯t met his Mr. Right. They drove for more than 40 minutes before they arrived at She Yuan¡¯s house downtown. She Yuan took Ruan Bai into the house and stood behind him, then covered his eyes with both hands. ¡°What are you up to? You¡¯re being so mysterious.¡± Ruan Bai¡¯s long eyelashes brushed She Yuan¡¯s palms. She Yuan lowered his head and kissed Ruan Bai on the earlobe, then said in a low voice, ¡°I have a surprise for you.¡± They two staggered towards the inner room, like two clumsy penguins. She Yuan covered Ruan Bai¡¯s eyes with one hand, took Ruan Bai¡¯s hand with the other and led him into the room. When Ruan Bai opened his eyes, he was shocked by what he saw. The room was full of the experiment instruments that he usually used and looked exactly like his laboratory on campus. ¡°This room is completely a carbon copy of my lab?!¡± She Yuan nodded, ¡°Well, I have asked Qin Yu what kinds of experiment instruments you usually used. You can rest assured that all of these are safe and secure experimental equipment.¡± ¡°I¡­ Why did you prepare this lab for me?¡± ¡°With this lab, you don¡¯t have to go to the college lab. Everything can be done at home.¡± She Yuan pointed to the room next door and continued, ¡°I will be in the next room. If I miss you, I can come to you at any time.¡± Ruan Bai wanted to do a PhD and become a researcher in the future. So his biggest wish was to have a laboratory of his own. But he never told anyone about this unrealistic idea. To his surprise, She Yuan happened to realize his wish. Ruan Bai had heard that some perfectly compatible couples could know by telepathy what their spouses were thinking. He didn¡¯t know if it was a telepathic communication between him and She Yuan, but he was very happy at this moment. ¡°Do you like it?¡± She Yuan acted from selfish motives. He did all this partly because he wanted to give Ruan Bai a good studying and working environment, but mainly because he wanted to be closer to Ruan Bai. He didn¡¯t know if Ruan Bai would like such an unromantic gift. Ruan Bai had a bee in his bonnet about these experiment instruments. He was thinking about when to move his experimental samples here so that he could stay here all the time. She Yuan asked again, ¡°Do you like it?¡± Ruan Bai finally came back to himself. He jumped up, threw his arms around She Yuan¡¯s neck and his legs around She Yuan¡¯s waist. She Yuan was taken aback, but he instinctively placed his hands under Ruan Bai¡¯s buttocks to steady Ruan Bai. ¡°I like it! I like it very much! I like it very, very, very much!¡± Ruan Bai buried his head in She Yuan¡¯s shoulder and kept rubbing his cheek against She Yuan¡¯s neck like an excited child. After a while, he raised his head and kissed She Yuan on the chin. ¡°Mr. She, you are so kind to me!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t seduce me. I¡¯m going to take you somewhere else. If you keep flirting with me, I¡¯m afraid that you will have no chance to go out today.¡± Ruan Bai just smiled broadly and said nothing. At this point, he had no sense of danger and was completely immersed in the happiness of having a personal laboratory. He was shaking his head from side to side like a lovable dog and rubbing his nose against Sheyuan¡¯s face. ¡°Anyway, you are the best! You are the best! You are the best!¡± She Yuan held Ruan Bai¡¯s buttocks, placed him on a lab table and pinned him against the wall, then kissed him fiercely. Ruan Bai was startled, but soon he put his arms around She Yuan¡¯s neck and responded enthusiastically. He even opened his mouth and let She Yuan¡¯s tongue in. She Yuan¡¯s tongue licked Ruan Bai¡¯s gums. Ruan Bai felt limp and numb. He twined his tongue around She Yuan¡¯s, and kissed She Yuan passionately, while making small groaning noises. She Yuan¡¯s passionate kiss made Ruan Bai melt like a candle in his warm love. Chapter 30 - The Restrained Love To Ruan Bai, She Yuan¡¯s kiss could easily provoke strong physiological arousal. After all, his ignorance of lust made him easily get sexually excited by tactile stimulation. She Yuan was a good teacher who taught Ruan Bai how to deal with his lust. Ruan Bai gasped and tried to push She Yuan away. She Yuan withdrew his hand from under Ruan Bai¡¯s hoodie and uncoiled slowly up into a standing position. ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± asked She Yuan. ¡°We can¡¯t do that here¡­¡± ¡°Why?¡± ¡°This is the laboratory¡­¡± From the point of view of Ruan Bai, the laboratory was where he would study and work in the future, and it was indecent to do such a thing here¡­ But She Yuan didn¡¯t care whether they were in the lab. It was only because Ruan Bai was not fully prepared that She Yuan restrained himself from having sex with Ruan Bai. Otherwise, he would make love with Ruan Bai in every corner of this house, bite the gland in the back of Ruan Bai¡¯s neck and filled Ruan Bai¡¯s stomach with his semen so that Ruan Bai could bear him many cute children. Ruan Bai knew that She Yuan was suffering from burning desire, and also wanted to bring pleasure to She Yuan, but he was still a clumsy student who was not ready for sex with his beloved, because his estrus didn¡¯t come yet. If his estrus didn¡¯t come, it meant that Ruan Bai didn¡¯t have a healthy body and was not suitable for conception. This was She Yuan¡¯s worst fear. He was afraid that having sex with Ruan Bai hastily would cause damage to Ruan Bai¡¯s special body. She Yuan held Ruan Bai in his arms and tried to calm himself down. After a while, they two finally got rid of lust. Seeing the guilty look on Ruan Bai¡¯s face, She Yuan felt Ruan Bai¡¯s head and said, ¡°Don¡¯t take it to heart. Be prepared mentally and physically. You will have to compensate me in the future.¡± Ruan Bai flushed to the ears and looked away from She Yuan. Sitting on the table with his limbs wrapped around She Yuan, Ruan Bai raised his chin, looked up at She Yuan and asked, ¡°Where else are you going to take me?¡± She Yuan patted Ruan Bai on his rear and picked him up. ¡°Let¡¯s go to the next place.¡± They drove to a farm in the suburb. Chen Fei and his wife greeted them with warmth and affection. Chen Fei was a Beta. He grew up with She Yuan, and they two were best friends. His spouse Qin Xu was a female Alpha, a strong woman and a competent lawyer. For the sake of Chen Fei, She Yuan had introduced many customers to Qin Xu. Now Qin Xu was a famous figure among lawyers in the capital. So, the three of them were both friends and partners. Due to the serious destruction of the earth¡¯s natural resources, food production had already become a major problem. Nowadays, agronomy was a very popular major. To breed new varieties of healthy and fresh produce and breed delicious poultry that had once existed in ancient times were two difficult problems needed to be solved in agronomy. Chen Fei and Ruan Bai were in the same field, but their research interests were different. After graduation, instead of studying further, Chen Fei invested in a farm, breeding fine breed poultry. He did excellent business. Now at least a quarter of the major shopping malls and restaurants bought poultry from Chen Fei. Thanks to the friendship with Chen Fei, it was not difficult for She Yuan to arrange a room for Ruan Bai¡¯s pigs in Chen Fei¡¯s farm. She Yuan introduced Chen Fei to Ruan Bai, and they got to know each other. Chen Fei said to Ruan Bai, ¡°Don¡¯t stand on ceremony. If you need help, just call me.¡± Ruan Bai smiled and nodded at him. She Yuan stepped in front of Ruan Bai, looked at Chen Fei and said, ¡°There¡¯s no need. I¡¯ll contact you.¡± Chen Fei rolled his eyes at She Yuan and said, ¡°Okay.¡± Ruan Bai thought that She Yuan was going to show him around the farm. The three of them got into an observation car. About ten minutes later, they arrived at a big house. Ruan Bai looked curiously at the house and had no idea of what it was for. ¡°Yuan, this is the dormitory I prepared for Ruan Bai¡¯s piggies.¡± Ruan Bai was very surprised. ¡°What? It¡¯s for my piggies?¡± She Yuan nodded, ¡°I know you¡¯ve been worried that your pigs will have nowhere to live. So I find this place for them. I¡¯ll help you send them here later.¡± Ruan Bai didn¡¯t expected that She Yuan would do so much for him. When Chen Fei turned around to open the door, Ruan Bai stood on tiptoe and gave She Yuan a kiss secretly. ¡°Thank you.¡± Chapter 31 - The Comedy of Errors She Yuan, who got a brief, gentle kiss from Ruan Bai, touched his own cheek, then bowed his head and kissed Ruan Bai back. ¡°Is this a reward?¡± Ruan Bai was greatly touched by what She Yuan had done for him. He nodded and said in a soft and sweet voice, ¡°I will give you a bigger reward later.¡± She Yuan chuckled, ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll wait and see.¡± When Chen Fei opened the door and turned around, they two already let go of each other. But the loving atmosphere between Ruan Bai and She Yuan betrayed them. Plainly, they were passionately in love with each other. Chen Fei smiled and was really happy for his best friend She Yuan. She Yuan¡¯s friends, including Chen Fei, were worried about whether or not She Yuan could find a spouse, and almost wanted to arrange blind dates for him. They all knew that She Yuan liked someone, but didn¡¯t know who it was. She Yuan was an enigma who never talked about his emotional life. Suddenly one day, he lost interest in playing with his friends. From that day on, he was anxious to go home after school every day. When he was a little older, he always brought home all the good things he had. Everyone said that he must have kept a child bride at home. She Yuan was not annoyed by their teasing words. No matter what others said, he still went his own way. However, after Gen. She was defeated, She Yuan and his family had to move abroad. At that time, they were still very young and didn¡¯t understand the meaning of separation and what it meant to lose a political battle. When a bird¡¯s nest is overturned, no egg can remain intact. They once joked with him, ¡°If you leave, your little wife will run away with others.¡± That time She Yuan flew into a rage and beat his friends hard. Chen Fei was also received a sound beating. The migration of the She family estranged She Yuan from his friends, but Chen Fei kept in contact with him. Chen Fei was a born rebel who always did the exact opposite of what his family told him to do. As a Beta, he was not qualified to take over the family business. So he decided to have his own business. His family asked him to stay away from She Yuan, but he ignored their advice and kept a close relationship with She Yuan. Over the years, Chen Fei had dealt with many of She Yuan¡¯s China affairs. Now She Yuan finally won his spouse. Chen Fei was really happy for him. What was more, his little wife was such a beautiful Omega with lily-white skin, looking lovely and adorable. Chen Fei couldn¡¯t help but admire She Yuan for his foresight because She Yuan had been determined to take Ruan Bai as his wife since childhood. Chen Fei opened the door, pointed at the spacious pigsty, and said to Ruan Bai, ¡°The pigsty hasn¡¯t been cleaned up yet, but you can rest assured that I will make room for you in two days so that you can move your pigs here. The environment and conditions here are very good. My wife¡¯s brother is the teacher of Agricultural College of Capital University. He has adjusted the pigsty temperature and the formula of pig feed. A few days ago, he moved some pigs to this pigsty from his lab. I just removed them this morning.¡± She Yuan¡¯s eyelid twitched involuntarily. Ruan Bai asked, ¡°The teacher of Agricultural College? What¡¯s his name?Perhaps I know him.¡± ¡°His name is Qin Yu. He¡¯s my wife¡¯s second elder brother. And he¡¯s an erudite scholar though he¡¯s young.¡± Ruan Bai gulped in shock. Qin Yu was his tutor! Those pigs that had been moved this morning included his little pigs. His boyfriend had removed his teacher¡¯s pigs in order to make room for his pigs! Ruan Bai turned to look at She Yuan who also realized what he had done. She Yuan did really forget that Qin Yu and Qin Xu were brother and sister. ¡°Chen Fei, just bring those pigs back here. Let¡¯s find another place. Anyway, we shouldn¡¯t occupy other people¡¯s place.¡± She Yuan didn¡¯t want to explain too much to Chen Fei. Chen Fei was very enthusiastic. ¡®She Yuan never asked me for help before. How can I not help him with such a trifle?¡¯ he thought to himself. ¡°Come on. Don¡¯t stand on ceremony. I¡¯ll find another place for my second brother-in-law¡¯s pigs later. This pigsty now belongs to you!¡± Ruan Bai didn¡¯t want to embarrass She Yuan, so he said hesitantly, ¡°Er, it¡¯s not because of that¡­ The main reason is that Qin Yu¡­ he is my tutor¡­ and the pigs that you sent away this morning include my pigs.¡±
