Chapter 3: You Are So Ruthless to Yourself
Rub all I want? Mu Feng’s eyes lit up.
You’re rewarding me again, Liang Yuhang?
His round cat head was squashed flat against the other’s body, the rising heat of embarrassment nearly overwhelming him.
“Thank you, Buddha, for saving all sentient beings. Next time, I’ll definitely burn more incense money for you,” Mu Feng mumbled to himself.
“Do you know you were wrong?” Liang Yuhang looked down.
Mu Feng didn’t care about anything else—getting kicked out to sleep elsewhere was not an option.
So, he retracted his claws and scratched him lightly, as if showing weakness: “I was wrong.”
Liang Yuhang locked eyes with him for two seconds.
Mumu’s eyes were blue-green, appearing even lighter under the lamp, like glass beads. For some reason, he inexplicably thought of the boy he met during the day.
The eye color was similar, just as harmless-looking.
No, comparing him to Mumu was an insult to the cat.
“Don’t do it again.” Liang Yuhang patted his head as a form of appeasement.
Then, supporting the cat with one hand, he got out of bed and went to the bathroom to dry his hair.
Mu Feng was held steadily just like that, his mind full of thoughts: These strong arms, if only I could be held by them while doing this and that…
The noise of the hairdryer interrupted his fantasy. The man’s hair was short, so the drying stopped after a short while.
He was casually placed on the bathroom counter by Liang Yuhang.
Mu Feng turned his head and saw Liang Yuhang standing there very calmly, untying the drawstring of his pants.
“Holy crap.” He let out a strange meow.
Today’s benefits are really a bit too much.
Mu Feng considered himself a veteran in theory, which meant he was purely all talk. Right now, he couldn’t control the flush spreading across his face, while his owner remained completely oblivious.
It made sense; in front of a cat, Liang Yuhang wouldn’t hide anything.
The kitten lay on the counter, watching him openly and honestly. Impressive assets, Liang Yuhang.
“Sleeping early today?” Liang Yuhang turned his head and asked.
“Okay.” Mu Feng nodded his cat head vigorously. The bell decoration on his neck shook, looking like it was made of solid gold.
Liang Yuhang was so good to his cat.
He wanted a gold collar too.
While feeling sour with envy, Mu Feng jumped back onto his finished owner, returning to the large bed from earlier, high-spirited and vigorous.
Once the lights were off, his eyes were wide open; he couldn’t sleep at all.
Sensing the movement, Liang Yuhang reached out and stroked him once, his voice very low: “Close your eyes. Sleep.”
Mu Feng pressed against him. The excessive body heat made even his own paws warm. He closed his eyes for two seconds, then opened them again.
I can’t sleep.
It’s so rare to share a bed; how can I waste time sleeping? His fluffy cat tail gently hooked around the man’s waist.
Liang Yuhang couldn’t be bothered to deal with him. He pressed the cat into his embrace and whispered, “Don’t fuss.”
Mu Feng knew when to stop. He couldn’t be too dramatic; even as a cat, he had to be measured to make his owner like him more.
So he relaxed, lying very quietly in his arms.
Liang Yuhang fell asleep.
Mu Feng stared at him all night, utterly infatuated.
However, his eyelids grew heavier and heavier. In a certain moment, the instant he closed them and opened them again, the feeling suddenly turned cold, and the space before him was empty.
The phone ringtone next to his ear kept ringing. He reached out, sensing something was wrong.
Hm? It’s cold.
Mu Feng’s sleepiness vanished halfway. He sat up abruptly and looked around. In the laboratory, there was no Liang Yuhang, no scent of him, and his body lacked that scorching body temperature.
Last night seemed like another bizarre dream.
“If it was a dream, it was too real.” It took Mu Feng two minutes to come back to his senses, actually feeling that his own body temperature was quite high. He answered the phone irritably, his voice cold. “Speak.”
The voice on the other end spoke cautiously, “I didn’t mean to disturb you so early. About Liang Jingyi, whom you asked me to keep an eye on—Liang Yuhang’s brother caused a bit of trouble in District C9 last night, but it was suppressed.”
“Suppressed?” Mu Feng’s expression turned playful. ” Shouldn’t we send a report with pictures and text to CEO Liang, so he can see how obedient his beloved son is? Feel free to embellish it.”
“Okay, I’ll get on it,” the other party responded. “You picked the right side. With the Liang family business, how could they give it to that kid? Spoiling him is useless; Liang Yuhang will definitely take over in the end.”
Who is interested in the Liang family business? I want the person.
“Alright, keep watching. I’ve transferred the money to your card.” Mu Feng yawned lazily and said lightly, “If he dares to cause trouble, break his legs.”
The person on the phone sensed a ruthlessness that didn’t match his innocent appearance. It simply didn’t seem like an Omega. Uncertain, they asked, “Really break them or fake break them?”
“If he dares to let something happen to Liang Yuhang like last time,” Mu Feng smiled, “he’ll have to pay with his life.”
The other party hung up, horrified. The laboratory door was pushed open, and his roommate Jiang Yuan leaned against the doorway. “Who does Young Master Mu want to pay with their life? Why are you sleeping here again? For a slacker, you sure love learning.”
“Eavesdropping isn’t a good habit.” Mu Feng thought of last night, his head groggy. “Say, is it possible for a person to turn into a cat? The kind with soft limbs.”
“Like a little slutty cat in sexy lingerie?” Jiang Yuan laughed. “You, an innocent little Omega, are into that?”
Mu Feng: “……….Get lost.”
He suspected his mind was full of dirty thoughts because of this bad friend.
He had an 8 AM class today. Originally, he didn’t want to go, but this was a public lecture paired with the research institute’s experiments, so he could run into Liang Yuhang.
Mu Feng made breakfast, put it in a takeout box, and carried it to the adjacent building. Unsurprisingly, in the last row of the reagent laboratory, he saw the person he had shared a bed with last night.
Other students were chasing white mice all over the room, but he just lowered his eyes slightly and injected a reagent into his bulging forearm, expressionless.
Using himself as a test subject directly?
As expected of the man in the Eighth Galaxy with the most guts—the one he had his eyes on. Just as crazy and ruthless deep down. A perfect match.
Mu Feng curved his eyes in a smile, walked over openly, and shook the bag in his hand. “Had breakfast yet?”
Liang Yuhang stared as he approached.
White T-shirt, a bit sheer. With the morning light casting over him, that waist was faintly visible between his movements.
The waist really is thin.
Actually, it’s very common. Many people have waists like that.
He should be an Omega, right? Do Alphas have waists this thin? Forget it, it has nothing to do with me.
Thinking this, Liang Yuhang withdrew his gaze. Mu Feng had already sat in the empty seat next to him. “Sandwich. It’s very delicious.”
“You brought it for me?” Liang Yuhang didn’t move, suspicious of his motives.
He had encountered suitors who used delivering breakfast as an excuse to get close to him before. This tactic was very outdated.
“I didn’t even know I’d run into you, so how could it be on purpose?” Mu Feng denied it. “I originally planned to feed the cats at school. You got lucky.”
Liang Yuhang looked at the lunch box. It did indeed avoid ingredients that cats were easily allergic to—no dairy products, nuts, and the like. It looked very safe.
But he still didn’t want to owe the other person a favor. “Eating is not allowed in the laboratory.”
Mu Feng took the lunch box back. “It’s okay. We don’t know each other well, so you should be vigilant. Senior, you aren’t disgusted, are you?”
Liang Yuhang: “………..”
See, interacting with people is trouble.
Mu Feng stared at him with eyes like glass beads, looking a little aggrieved. “I seem to be really bad at making friends. Sorry to disturb you, I’ll go sit at the front.”
As he spoke, he pretended to get up. He was wearing a suppression bracelet on his wrist with a small bell on it, which made a very soft sound when he moved.
Very much like Mumu. He seems to be slightly cuter than other humans.
Liang Yuhang looked at him, but in the end, he reached out, pressed the back of his neck, and forced him back into the seat with a little force. “Just sit here.”
As the calloused fingers brushed across that patch of skin, Mu Feng felt a numbness spread across the back of his neck.
It was too similar to the touch from last night—so similar that he began to suspect it really wasn’t a dream. Maybe it was the accidental result of an experiment. Tonight, he would try again.
“Was Mumu good yesterday?” Mu Feng brought it up proactively.
“Not very good. I made him stand in the corner for ten minutes,” Liang Yuhang said. “He was also very rowdy. I don’t know if he’s going into heat soon.”
Mu Feng’s eyelashes trembled very lightly. The dream overlapped. He pressed for details, “How was he rowdy?”
While observing the data on the instrument, Liang Yuhang said carelessly, “Licking and touching indiscriminately.”
The newly injected experimental reagent was a bit intense. His physical functions were more special than ordinary people’s—full drug resistance—so he almost never had negative reactions. Yet today, he inexplicably felt a bit agitated.
Lowering his eyes, he discovered that Mu Feng’s fingers had landed on his forearm. The fingers were very hot, as if he had a fever. “You are so ruthless to yourself. It’s swollen.”
Found the cause of the agitation.
He hated physical contact with others, especially… the same sex.
Liang Yuhang turned his head, his gaze crashing into those pale green eyes, wanting to frown and push him away.
But he felt the other’s fingers move slowly, carrying a scorching body temperature, rubbing very lightly over the needle puncture. It scratched across his heart as lightly as a feather, leaving a tingling sensation.
Mu Feng stared at him, innocent eyes holding an imperceptible seductiveness. “Last night, did he touch like this?”
