Cannon Fodder O Pretending to be A Will Lose Their Vest Chapter 81

Chapter 81: Master – Crawl Over Like a Dog to Find Me, Beg Me…

Jiang Chenyan had vanished—vanished without a trace.

When Professor Ariel first learned of this news, his blood pressure spiked. He interrogated Shen Shiyue, “What exactly happened? How could he just disappear?”

Shen Shiyue slowly lifted his gaze, a casual, nonchalant smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. “It’s actually no big deal. He just felt a bit stifled and went out to catch some fresh air. I’ll go find him now; I’ll be able to bring him back very soon.”

Is that even human speech? Ariel pressed his palm to his forehead in frustration, his fingertips digging into his throbbing temples. He felt that Shen Shiyue was beyond help.

He truly couldn’t fathom Jiang Chenyan’s thoughts. The boy had exerted so much effort to get the report to enter the Alliance, and just as he was about to step through the Alliance’s gates—an opportunity countless people dreamed of—he had simply taken the report and vanished into thin air.

Students were scheduled to be sent to the Alliance in batches starting next week. Every single step of the process could not afford even the slightest error.

If a mistake occurred, the military academy would have no way to account for it to the Alliance. At that time, not only would Jiang Chenyan’s future be ruined, but the school’s reputation would also suffer.

Ariel took a deep breath, suppressing the fire in his heart. “I’ll give you two days. You must find him and bring him back. If there’s still no news after two days, I will report this directly to the school. I can’t help you keep a lid on this anymore.”

Hearing this, Shen Shiyue merely nodded with composure. “I don’t need two days. One day is enough.”

Ariel, “…”

Shen Shiyue pulled his light-brain from his pocket. His fingertips tapped the screen twice; the display lit up and then quickly went dark. The corners of his mouth curled upward.

He slowly stood up. “I’m leaving, Professor.”

Beyond words, Ariel thought.

The night was as dark as ink, and the evening breeze carried a hint of chill.

Atop a high platform, a slender youth leaned against a wall, a cigarette held between his fingers. Amidst the swirling smoke, he kept his eyes lowered, his eyelashes casting a shadow. His expression was dark and unreadable.

The location was somewhat remote; usually, many people met here for fights.

Feeling somewhat irritable, Jiang Chenyan suddenly applied force with his fingertips, grinding the cigarette butt out against the cold, rough surface of the wall. The sparks died out, leaving a charred black circle behind. A burning pain radiated from his finger.

Several beer bottles lay scattered haphazardly on the ground. The liquid that had rolled out of them formed dark stains on the floor; one bottle was already empty. Clearly, its owner had been lingering here for quite some time.

Jiang Chenyan bent over and pulled out another bottle. His fingers pried the cap off with force, and he tilted his head back to take several large gulps. The cold liquid slid down his throat, with a few drops accidentally splashing onto his collar.

The system finally couldn’t hold back anymore.

[Host, will the protagonist shou… really come?]

Glancing sideways at the void, Jiang Chenyan let out a light laugh. “What? Do you think I spoke too harshly?”

[Host, the note you left for the protagonist shou was indeed a bit… too aggressive. Anyone would feel uncomfortable after reading it.]

“Is that so?”

Jiang Chenyan buried his head between his knees, his arms tightly circling his legs. He sat there curled in a ball, appearing somewhat exhausted.

The alcohol began to go to his head, and he suddenly remembered the note he had left before leaving—

<Crawl over to find me and beg me, just like a dog.>

A low laugh spilled from his throat. Jiang Chenyan tilted his head and asked the system, “Guess, is Shen Shiyue willing to be my dog?”

The system was silent for a moment, feeling a bit speechless.

[He’s a perfectly fine human being; how could he possibly be willing to be a dog?]

The system’s reasoning wasn’t without merit.

Even Jiang Chenyan didn’t know the answer.

Top-rank Alphas were born at the peak of the pyramid, enjoying the awe and admiration of others. Throughout his life, he had likely never been insulted like this. Crawl over like a dog and beg me? Probably no one would even dare to think of such words.

Regardless, Shen Shiyue was fundamentally different from the likes of Xie Huaijin. In their hearts, Xie Huaijin and his group didn’t view Jiang Chenyan as a human being; especially after learning he was an Omega, their contempt and trampling of him were blatant.

Shen Shiyue was different. From beginning to end, even though he knew Jiang Chenyan was an Omega, he had never shown the slightest bit of disdain. He still stood firmly by his side.

Leaning against his knees, Jiang Chenyan’s thoughts churned. He thought about many, many things. In the end, he just wanted an answer.

Liking him.

He admitted it—he liked Shen Shiyue a little.

This feeling had quietly taken root and sprouted beneath his harsh disguise. This was the answer he was seeking through his clumsy attempts to test the other.

And now, he only wanted Shen Shiyue’s answer—an answer that could either set his heart at ease or make him give up entirely.

When the light-brain vibrated, Jiang Chenyan’s fingertips suddenly jerked.

It was a message from Shen Shiyue.

The system exploded even before he did.

[Holy sh*t!]

Before Jiang Chenyan could tap the screen, a loud bang echoed. The iron door of the high platform was kicked open with such force that the walls trembled.

Thinking it was a passing drunkard or some thugs looking for a fight, Jiang Chenyan didn’t even lift his eyelids. His fingertips remained poised over the screen.

In the next instant, a tall figure lunged forward. He was very strong and very tall.

Carrying a familiar sense of oppression, he pinned Jiang Chenyan heavily against the wall.

Jiang Chenyan instinctively clenched his fist, preparing to swing. However, a familiar low, magnetic, and slightly hoarse voice came from above him, crashing into his ears along with the night breeze.

“I didn’t crawl over like a dog. I ran over like a dog.”

Those insulting words he had written were returned to him in their original form.

These words…

Jiang Chenyan’s whole body stiffened, his fist frozen mid-air.

After a moment of stagnation, Jiang Chenyan let out a low laugh. He reached up and grabbed Shen Shiyue’s collar hard, his fingertips clenching tight as he forced the other to lean down. He then lifted his gaze to meet those deep eyes. “How do you plan to beg me?”

Leaning down, one could see the flush at the corners of Jiang Chenyan’s eyes. The faint scent of alcohol lingered around the tip of his nose.

Shen Shiyue spoke hoarsely, “I smell alcohol.”

Jiang Chenyan raised an eyebrow, his fingers loosening slightly as he spoke nonchalantly, “Want to have a drink together?”

“No,” Shen Shiyue leaned in close, his warm breath fanning over Jiang Chenyan’s ear. “First, I beg you.”

Jiang Chenyan cursed inwardly.

Was Shen Shiyue always like this?

Refusing to show weakness, he lifted his foot and pressed it firmly against the other’s lower abdomen. Gritting his teeth, he squeezed out a word, “Fine. Come and beg me.”

Shen Shiyue said, “Please, forgive me.”

Jiang Chenyan sneered, “That’s it?”

He suddenly pushed Shen Shiyue away, turned, and sat down alone. He fished out a cigarette and lit it, the crimson spark glowing and fading in the night.

It was a clear sign of his dissatisfaction.

Shen Shiyue didn’t care at all. He walked over slowly and knelt on one knee before Jiang Chenyan, his posture as devout as a submissive believer.

Jiang Chenyan gave an impatient tsk. Holding the cigarette between his fingers, he intentionally blew a smoke ring into Shen Shiyue’s face.

Caught off guard, Shen Shiyue let out a few light coughs, the smile in his eyes deepening.

Jiang Chenyan asked him intentionally, “Does it feel bad?”

“It doesn’t.” Shen Shiyue lowered his gaze, tracing the features of this face in his mind. “It feels like flirting.”

Jiang Chenyan finally couldn’t help but let out a low laugh. He finally stopped pretending; this was Shen Shiyue’s true face hidden beneath his docility—wild as a wolf that had retracted its claws.

He looked up, cigarette between his fingers, his eyes incredibly bright as he looked directly at the person kneeling before him. “Then I ask you, are you willing to be my dog?”

The night wind swirled with the darkness across the platform. In the distance, the city’s neon lights glowed faintly behind the clouds, casting their shadows long and short.

Only the soft sound of the night wind passing by remained on the high platform. It was terrifyingly quiet, so quiet that one might think the other would simply turn and walk away in silence, never responding to this childish and obsessive test.

Shen Shiyue suddenly raised his hand. His fingertips carried a cool temperature as he gently plucked the cigarette from Jiang Chenyan’s lips.

He lowered his head and took a puff using the remaining fire. Smoke spilled from between his teeth, blurring the emotions in his eyes.

Then, Shen Shiyue crushed the cigarette out against the wall beside him. When he looked up again, his gaze was burning, crashing directly into Jiang Chenyan’s eyes. “I have always been your dog.”

“Master.”

Jiang Chenyan’s throat tightened, so dry it felt like it was on fire.

The system had already crashed. What has this been tuned into?

“Master.”

Shen Shiyue’s voice was low and hoarse. One hand circled Jiang Chenyan’s neck. The strength wasn’t heavy as he pulled the person toward himself.

Their noses touched, and warm breath fanned over Jiang Chenyan’s lips, mixed with the scent of tobacco and his unique Alpha pheromones.

“May I kiss you?”

His breathing, his scent, the deep obsession and tenderness in his eyes that couldn’t be dispersed, the weight and temperature of his entire being—it all came over him like a landslide.

“You may.”

Jiang Chenyan no longer hesitated. Taking the initiative, he reached out and gripped Shen Shiyue’s shoulders. He tilted his head up and moved in for the kiss, their lips pressing together with force.

This time, he wanted to be the one in control.

The temperature continued to rise.

Under the night sky, two figures embraced and lingered together.

Shen Shiyue lowered his head and kissed Jiang Chenyan. His movements were devout yet carried a suppressed urgency. Their lips rubbed and ground against each other, their warm breath fanning over each other’s faces as their hearts thundered.

Jiang Chenyan tilted his head back slightly, actively responding. His fingertips brushed over Shen Shiyue’s spine. In the gaps between the kisses, he looked up at Shen Shiyue.

He quickly entered his role and asked softly, “Do you like your Master?”

“I like you.”

His voice was low and dark, carrying an extreme sense of sinking into the abyss, as if he wanted to rub the person into his very blood and bone.

After kissing for too long, he felt a bit tired. Jiang Chenyan raised his hand and pushed the man away without mercy. The force wasn’t light, exactly like a scumbag who discarded someone after using them.

Jiang Chenyan raised an eyebrow, his finger poking at Shen Shiyue’s chest. “I ask you, why did you bite me in secret before? It hurt a lot, you know?”

The haze of sinking into desire hadn’t yet faded from Shen Shiyue’s eyes. Hearing this, he felt a bit between laughter and tears. He knew Jiang Chenyan was about to settle some old scores.

“Because I was jealous.”

He spoke word by word, “Do you know? From the very beginning, I discovered that Xie Huaijin and Mu Sian had designs on you. I was worried they would take you away.”

“But they weren’t wrong about one thing. I’ve coveted you for a long time. These feelings have been hidden for too long; I can’t hide them anymore.”

“I like you, yet I was afraid you didn’t feel the same. I was in agony day and night. No one ever taught me what love is, but every moment I spend with you, I’ve come to understand. This is love.”

This time, it was no longer just simple liking; it was heavy, profound love.

Jiang Chenyan’s heart suddenly jumped, his blood booming through his limbs and bones. His breathing also grew somewhat stagnant.

Shen Shiyue was confessing to him.

This direction seemed to be within expectations, yet also outside of them.

Jiang Chenyan raised his hand, his fingertips touching Shen Shiyue’s cheek. Shen Shiyue caught his hand and tightened his arms, pulling Jiang Chenyan into his embrace.

Shen Shiyue buried his head in the crook of Jiang Chenyan’s neck, every word earnest: “So don’t run away again, and don’t avoid me. Let’s resolve all our conflicts, alright?”

“Mm.”

Both of them had been trapped in their respective pride and testing for too long; now, they were finally willing to take the first step.

When leaving the high platform, the warmth of Shen Shiyue still lingered on Jiang Chenyan’s fingertips. His mind was a bit of a mess.

Shen Shiyue was clearly different from him; he seemed to be in a very good mood. His side profile glowed softly in the night.

Jiang Chenyan suddenly remembered something. He paused in his steps and turned to look at him. “By the way, from what you said, your family is powerful and wealthy. Back then, at the jewelry store part-time job, did you intentionally…”

Shen Shiyue paused for a second, then gave a light nod. “Yes.”

His steps unconsciously slowed down a bit. Jiang Chenyan couldn’t smile; as expected, it was like that.

Turning around, he raised his hand and braced it against the wall beside Shen Shiyue. Jiang Chenyan trapped the man between the wall and himself. He stopped just as his nose was about to touch Shen Shiyue’s. “No wonder the boss was a bit afraid of you…”

Shen Shiyue’s mind wasn’t on what Jiang Chenyan was saying at all. He lowered his gaze, unable to stop himself from looking at Jiang Chenyan’s red and swollen lips.

That dash of gorgeous color was exceptionally clear in the night, carrying the marks of having just been ravished.

He couldn’t help but lean in half an inch closer. “Mm.”
