[Side CP Extra] Their First Life 03
Xiang Wanxing was hiding in a very secluded spot. If Chen Zirui didn’t have a habit of taking unusual paths, he really might not have discovered Xiang Wanxing hiding near the entrance of the utility room.
Xiang Wanxing’s shirt had been torn open, revealing fair skin and beautiful collarbones.
His cheeks were flushed with an abnormal redness. He was collapsed on the floor, propping himself up with both arms, panting heavily.
Chen Zirui stopped in his tracks, staring in astonishment at the disheveled Xiang Wanxing.
A moment later, he smelled the scent of peaches—it was Xiang Wanxing’s pheromones.
The thought that the person who usually threatened him at the drop of a hat actually had such sickly-sweet pheromones made Chen Zirui laugh out loud, looking rather schadenfreude.
His sudden laughter sounded abrupt in the empty corridor. Like a startled small animal, Xiang Wanxing jerked his head up to look at him.
Chen Zirui reined in his smile, cleared his throat lightly, and walked toward Xiang Wanxing.
“Hey, are you okay?”
“Get lost!” Xiang Wanxing glared at him ferociously. “If you dare take one more step, I will absolutely kill you.”
If this were the usual Xiang Wanxing, Chen Zirui would have been scared off.
But right now, he looked incredibly pitiful; even his cruel words sounded like a lover’s pout.
This only intensified the self-loathing in Xiang Wanxing’s heart. If there were a knife here, he would slice off these annoying glands without hesitation.
Even being a despised, genderless person would be better than being an Omega at the mercy of others.
Chen Zirui didn’t know what Xiang Wanxing was thinking.
Hearing Xiang Wanxing’s words, he merely paused and looked at him with a frown.
He’s in this state and still so fierce.
I wonder how Xie Miaohan puts up with someone like this.
“You brought this on yourself. You knew this place is crawling with Alphas, yet you kept running to the army camp.” Chen Zirui finally found an opportunity to be sarcastic, getting more worked up as he spoke. “Even if you want to keep tabs on Xie Miaohan, surely you didn’t need to take such a big risk.”
Xiang Wanxing dug his fingers into the floor, his knuckles straining until they almost bled.
“Get lost! I said get the f*ck out of here!”
After his outburst, the scent of peaches in the air grew even thicker.
Chen Zirui realized the severity of the situation and hurriedly covered his nose and mouth with his sleeve.
“Hey, why don’t you call Xie Miaohan?”
As soon as he said it, Chen Zirui’s expression changed.
Right, Xie Miaohan had already gone to the front lines. Even if he knew Xiang Wanxing was in heat, he couldn’t rush back.
What a lunatic.
They had just started military training, yet Xie Miaohan couldn’t wait to go to the front lines to earn merit—it was practically a suicide mission.
Chen Zirui wanted to ask if Xiang Wanxing had inhibitors, but on second thought, that was a stupid question.
If he had brought them, he wouldn’t be in this state.
“Hey, you…” Chen Zirui lifted his foot to step forward but was stopped by Xiang Wanxing’s glare.
It was a terrifying look, as if he really would kill him if he took a step closer.
Chen Zirui pursed his lips and turned to leave.
Xiang Wanxing watched his retreating back, the corners of his lips curling into a mocking smile.
Everyone is disgusting.
He didn’t know how much time had passed, but just as Xiang Wanxing was about to lose consciousness, he heard footsteps again.
He struggled to lift his head and saw Chen Zirui running back toward him.
Xiang Wanxing’s face darkened. He bit his lip until it bled, forcing himself to stay lucid.
He glared at Chen Zirui with a vicious look. “Didn’t I tell you to get lost? If you dare touch me, I’ll…”
Before he could finish, Chen Zirui pulled him up, pulling his entire body into a warm embrace.
Xiang Wanxing trembled with rage, thinking that if Chen Zirui dared to mark him now, he would definitely kill him.
No, just killing him wouldn’t be enough to vent his anger.
He would make him suffer endless torture, making even death a luxury.
Just as Xiang Wanxing’s thoughts were spiraling, Chen Zirui injected an inhibitor into him.
Xiang Wanxing froze, staring at Chen Zirui’s face in disbelief.
After administering the shot, Chen Zirui shoved him away immediately, unwilling to touch him for even a second longer.
“I’m seriously done with you. Your heat came, and instead of asking for help, you just know how to threaten people.”
Chen Zirui wiped the hands that had touched Xiang Wanxing on his own clothes, then added, “You think everyone wants to mark you? You’re not some delicious little treat. I don’t care about your pheromones at all; they don’t even smell good.”
Fortunately, their compatibility wasn’t high. So, while Xiang Wanxing’s sickly-sweet pheromones made him feel a bit uncomfortable, it wasn’t unbearable.
Xiang Wanxing sat up straight, leaning his back against the wall.
“Why did you help me?” Xiang Wanxing’s forehead was covered in sweat, and strands of hair stuck to his face, looking nothing like his usual arrogant, noble self. “Or are you trying to use this to exchange for some benefit?”
“I didn’t want to help you. You swore at me so viciously; just thinking about helping you made me feel stifled,” Chen Zirui said. “But my conscience wouldn’t let me leave. Seeing you like that and just walking away… that would be too much of a scumbag move.”
Xiang Wanxing stared intently at Chen Zirui, his thoughts unreadable.
“You’re good now, right?” Chen Zirui stood up and looked down at him. “I advise you to come to this kind of place less often. If you encounter an Alpha with high compatibility, you’ll really be done for.”
Xiang Wanxing finally spoke, his expression somewhat complex.
“Do you know you missed a great opportunity?”
Chen Zirui paused, puzzled. “What opportunity?”
“An opportunity for your whole family to jump social classes.” Xiang Wanxing curved his lips, mocking himself. “If you had taken the chance to mark me, I would be yours. I’d have to rely on you for the rest of my life, and I’d have to marry…”
“Pfft!” Chen Zirui suddenly interrupted him. “Don’t curse me.”
Xiang Wanxing: “……”
“I don’t like Omegas like you. You’re fierce as hell; marrying you would shorten my life by decades.”
Xiang Wanxing had just recovered from the initial wave of his heat and really didn’t have the energy to correct the term “Omega.”
Facts had proven that he was indeed an Omega. As soon as his heat came, he lost his reason and begged for an Alpha’s affection.
Seeing that Xiang Wanxing remained silent, Chen Zirui couldn’t be bothered to chat further.
He still had to shower. He had to assemble early for training tomorrow, so he needed to rest.
He turned and took two steps, then suddenly thought of something and doubled back.
Chen Zirui scratched his head, seeming a bit embarrassed to speak.
“Did you… just say I could exchange this for a benefit?”
A look of sarcasm appeared in Xiang Wanxing’s eyes, an expression that said I knew it.
“What do you want?” Xiang Wanxing asked coldly.
“Can you forget about the middle finger thing…” Chen Zirui felt it was too shameful to say out loud, his voice getting smaller and smaller. “At worst, you can give me the finger back. Is it really such a big deal that you have to seek revenge?”
“That’s all you want?” Xiang Wanxing hadn’t expected this to be his wish.
It was really a bit… pathetic…
“Yeah, just that.” Chen Zirui shook the empty inhibitor tube in his hand. “Look, I helped you, so don’t take revenge. If you had really broken my fingers that day, I wouldn’t have had a hand to save you today.”
“You have a left hand.”
Chen Zirui’s face instantly fell.
He’s so unreasonable.
He should just drop dead.
Chen Zirui didn’t dare say it out loud; he only cursed in his heart.
Staring at Chen Zirui’s face, Xiang Wanxing suddenly burst out laughing, his shoulders shaking uncontrollably.
Chen Zirui’s expression turned even uglier. “Forget it, pretend I never mentioned it. Damn it, I really saved an ingrate. Just get lost.”
Xiang Wanxing laughed enough, then raised a hand to wipe a tear from the corner of his eye.
“If you hadn’t mentioned it today, I would have forgotten about it long ago.”
Chen Zirui: !!!
“Just pretend I didn’t bring it up.” Chen Zirui put on a flattering smile. “You are a big person with a big heart; don’t lower yourself to the level of a small fry like me.”
Xiang Wanxing’s mood improved. He looked up, his eyes containing obvious mirth.
“You’re so good at changing faces; why come to the army? You should go perform face-changing on stage; you’d be very popular with the audience.” Xiang Wanxing smiled and said, “That way, at least you won’t get swept by friendly fire on the battlefield because you’re too short for them to see your face.”
“I can’t be bothered with you anymore!”
Berated for being short for the nth time, Chen Zirui turned and left in anger.
A few days later, Chen Zirui encountered Xiang Wanxing in the locker room again.
Once again, his clothes were half-off, and once again, Xiang Wanxing had slipped in while he wasn’t paying attention and locked the door.
The only difference was that this time, Xiang Wanxing didn’t say a word. Instead, he slapped Chen Zirui’s butt hard, making a loud smack.
“So soft and perky.”
