Chapter 93
“Did you have fun today?”
Seeing An Le, Lu Heng slightly curled his lips, his previous worries completely gone. “Seeing Xiao Xiao, you won’t worry about him anymore, right?”
If it was about having fun, he definitely had fun today.
But when it came to Xiao Xiao, An Le was still a little uneasy. Although Xiao Xiao had reassured him, he knew the situation wasn’t as simple as he imagined.
An Le pouted, pulling Lu Heng as they walked toward the living room, saying, “Sir, Xiao Xiao told me not to worry about him, saying he did it willingly, but I don’t think that’s true.”
An Le said dejectedly, “Although he said he’s doing well, I can sense his helplessness.”
Although he’d only been friends with Xiao Xiao for three years, he knew him very well. Xiao Xiao could easily deceive him, but once he realized it, it was difficult to fool him again.
He could tell that Xiao Xiao wasn’t unhappy with his current life, nor did he find it difficult, but it was like a dead sea, devoid of vitality. He could feel Xiao Xiao’s helplessness.
Lu Heng: “Why?”
An Le looked up, “Xiao Xiao told me that Omegas can’t leave alphas for their entire lives; it’s a kind of bondage.”
“If the alpha who marks an Omega is bad to the Omega, hurts them, or cheats, the Omega rarely chooses to leave the alpha.”
“In the past, it was because they couldn’t leave, but even after the mark-removal surgery came out, few people chose to have it…”
An Omega’s dependence on an alpha was not only physiological but also psychological.
Not to mention those who suffered from pheromone disorder-related illnesses; they were even more inseparable from alphas.
Xiao Xiao’s mother was like that. At that time, the mark-removal surgery hadn’t been invented yet, and his mother could only live in pain, bearing her husband’s mark, hiding from the world.
He had witnessed firsthand what it was like for an Omega to leave an alpha.
For an Omega, it was hell.
Every time Xiao Xiao mentioned Omegas, he would be grateful to be a beta, then comfort An Le, saying that he would protect him.
Although Xiao Xiao didn’t say it explicitly, An Le knew that Xiao Xiao didn’t want to be an Omega, even if it meant death.
But now, Xiao Xiao had become no different from an Omega.
An Le felt heartbroken. He told Lu Heng his thoughts.
Lu Heng helplessly said, “Since it’s his choice, I think you should respect him.”
An Le didn’t speak. If it truly were Xiao Xiao’s choice, he would definitely respect and support him.
But it wasn’t Xiao Xiao’s choice; it was something Xiao Xiao was forced into; Xiao Xiao had no choice but to accept it, something Gu Qian had forcefully imposed on him.
But now the result couldn’t be changed. An Le knew that even if he was heartbroken, it was useless now.
Remembering Xiao Xiao’s words, he thought for a moment and asked, “Sir, Xiao Xiao said he can come out to play with me often. Is that true?”
“Will Boss Gu keep him locked up like before, not allowing him to go out?”
Lu Heng and Gu Qian were cousins; they knew each other well. They should know about this, right?
Lu Heng sat on the sofa, looking at the little things An Le had brought back from shopping, small gadgets, snacks, fancy suppressant patches that Omegas liked, and some small tools for drawing.
Putting them down, Lu Heng asked jealously, “Le Le, didn’t you think of me while shopping today?”
He hadn’t even brought him a little gift. He was an alpha, and he hoped his Omega would think of him all the time.
“I did.”
An Le got up, sat in Lu Heng’s lap, leaned against his chest, and whispered, “Many times.”
Lu Heng was the biggest pillar in his life; how could he not think of Lu Heng?
Lu Heng smiled contentedly and continued to ask, “Since you thought of me, why isn’t there a little gift for me among all these things?”
“There is.”
An Le thought for a moment, rummaged through the pile of things, and pulled out a bag of beef jerky, waving it in front of Lu Heng, saying, “Look, beef jerky. Sir likes beef the most, but wouldn’t you get tired of eating the same flavors all the time?”
“So I bought beef snacks for you, Sir.”
An Le said, opening the bag and offering a piece of beef jerky to Lu Heng’s mouth, instructing him, “Ah~”
Lu Heng hesitated for a moment, then opened his mouth and took the beef jerky.
Spicy flavor, it was indeed good.
He had rarely eaten snacks growing up, and even less beef jerky snacks; this was the first time.
He smiled contentedly, generously praising, “Not bad.”
An Le was happy and fed Lu Heng again.
A bag of beef jerky wasn’t much; half the bag was quickly gone.
Lu Heng didn’t particularly like snacks, but he didn’t want to refuse An Le’s feeding. When An Le offered another piece of beef jerky, he pinched An Le’s chin, lowered his head and kissed him, then transferred the beef jerky in his mouth to An Le’s mouth.
An Le froze.
If it were other food, it could be considered romantic, but what about beef jerky?
This needs to be chewed!
An Le, holding the beef jerky, was stunned.
But Lu Heng laughed. He used his tongue to retrieve the beef jerky from An Le’s mouth, chewed it for a while, and then passed it back to An Le.
An Le: …
The strategy failed, and he was forced to consume it.
After eating the beef jerky with saliva, An Le was on the verge of tears.
Lu Heng: “You’re disgusted by me.”
An Le: “No, not disgusted. It’s just… just…”
Lu Heng finished his sentence, “Not hygienic?”
An Le wanted to nod, but for Lu Heng’s sake, he didn’t.
Instead, Lu Heng asked, “Then when we kiss and eat candy together, do you think it’s unhygienic?”
An Le: !
Lu Heng: “When we kiss and exchange saliva, do you think it’s unhygienic?”
An Le: !!
Lu Heng: “When I sucked on Little Le Le, did you think it was unhygienic?”
An Le: !!!
Lu Heng: “And, I…”
“Don’t, don’t say it.”
Before Lu Heng could finish, An Le pounced forward to cover his mouth, saying helplessly with red eyes, “It’s not unhygienic, it’s not unhygienic.”
Lu Heng suppressed a laugh, “Then let’s do it again.”
An Le: …
“Hahahaha…”
Seeing An Le’s tears, Lu Heng finally laughed, whispering, “Okay, don’t be upset, I was just teasing you.”
“Sir!”
An Le turned angrily, refusing to pay attention to Lu Heng.
Lu Heng quickly came over and picked him up, walking towards the room, saying, “Le Le, be good, don’t be angry. I just wanted you to try the beef jerky. How is it? Do you think it’s delicious?”
An Le: …
Although the beef jerky tasted good, he… didn’t quite like the way it was fed to him.
Back in the bedroom, Lu Heng put him on the bed, pressed down on him, unbuttoned An Le’s shirt, and said, “I think it tastes very good.”
An Le had no choice but to nod lightly.
Lu Heng laughed, said nothing more, and focused on undressing An Le, quickly stripping him naked.
As they were about to become intimate, Lu Heng’s phone rang.
An Le blushed, looking shyly at Lu Heng.
Lu Heng silenced the phone and continued.
But just as Lu Heng was about to reach the climax, his phone vibrated again. This time, although there was no sound, the buzzing vibration made the call seem even more urgent.
Lu Heng gritted his teeth and turned off his phone.
An Le whispered, “Sir, we’re not in a rush. Why don’t you… answer the phone first?”
“No.”
Couldn’t whatever it was wait until tomorrow at work?
They had to call right now!
They must all be single dogs without a nightlife!
Lu Heng didn’t want to deal with them. He hugged An Le, burying himself in An Le’s body, but before he could move, An Le’s phone rang.
An Le blushed, stunned for a moment, his voice trembling, “Maybe… maybe it’s for you, Sir.”
The persistent calls, even after Lu Heng turned off his phone, were being made to An Le’s phone. There must be an emergency.
Lu Heng clearly realized this problem, pulled away angrily, sat on the edge of the bed, picked up An Le’s phone, and it was Li Jie calling.
Lu Heng answered, his first words being, “Whatever you have to say had better be important enough to call at this hour. Otherwise, forget about your bonus this month!”
