Xi Ning slowly walked toward Song Zhou. He pulled out the chair and sat down, and then put the bread on Song Zhouâs table.
Song Zhou picked up the bread to store it in his drawer, and then took out the glutinous rice dumplings that he bought for Xi Ning this morning.
The glutinous rice dumplings were ordinary glutinous rice dumplings with green beans, but they were very fragrant. Two of the glutinous rice dumplings looked small but the portion was just right. After steaming, the glutinous rice dumplings were peeled and roasted. He bought them not too long ago so the outer shell was still crispy.
Xi Ning smelled the scent of glutinous rice dumplings and couldnât refuse it at all, so he took it. âThank youâ¦â¦â
Song Zhou saw the black circles on his face. âYou didnât sleep well?â
Xi Ning buried his head and took a bite of the tip of the glutinous rice dumplings and said, âYeahâ.
Song Zhou seemed to have guessed the reason why he didnât sleep well. He didnât ask further and went to pour Xi Ning a glass of warm water.
âThank you.â Xi Ning took a sip of the water and Song Zhou looked at the back of his neck. âDid you put on the pheromone-blocking tape?â
Xi Ning nodded.
The morning class was about to begin. The classmates in the front row were all flipping through their books. Since no one paid attention to them, Song Zhou got closer and whispered, âIs it still red and swollen? Let me see.â
As Song Zhou spoke, he stretched out his hand and gently pulled down the collar behind Xi Ningâs neck. The skin was smooth and clean and there were no âallergicâ symptoms from yesterday afternoon.
Xi Ning tightened the hand that was holding the glutinous rice dumplings. His whole body froze and he slowly buried his face.
Song Zhouâs slightly cool fingertips accidentally touched the edge of the tape. Xi Ningâs heart beat quickly. He wanted Song Zhou to stop looking at it, but his body couldnât move, as if it was being restrained by someone. He couldnât help but expose the back of his neck in front of Song Zhou.
Xi Ning vaguely remembered the dream he had last night. In the dream, he smelled the scent again and felt satisfied and comfortable. However, when the scent disappeared, he felt disappointed.
Even though Song Zhou had also seen his glands yesterday afternoon and sprayed the suppression spray for him, he still felt very nervous. His hands were shaking and he yearned for the scent that he smelled yesterday to comfort himself.
The system detected something was wrong. It scanned the pheromone in Xi Ningâs body and panicked. âMaster, you areâ¦..â
Xi Ning raised his head. His face was blushing abnormally.
Song Zhou was stunned, but his body moved faster than his brain. He immediately pulled out the suppression spray from Xi Ningâs schoolbag and sprayed a little on the back of Xi Ningâs neck.
The blush on Xi Ningâs face disappeared a bit, but he still frowned. He grabbed the hand of the person in front of him and whispered, âSong Zhouâ¦â¦â
***
âMaster, you seem to be having minor estrus symptomsâ¦â¦ The pheromones that you came in contact with yesterday were too mixed up. Furthermore, the masterâs glands are very sensitive, so it is best not to use the suppression spray too muchâ¦â¦ But where can we find the alpha from yesterday?â
Estrusâ¦â¦This word was too unfamiliar to Xi Ning. Just because Song Zhou glanced at his glands, he went into estrus?
The systemâs voice was so noisy that Xi Ning had a headache. He couldnât help but bend down to put his forehead against Song Zhouâs wrist, trying to stay conscious.
The system thought it was the alphas in the alley yesterday, but Xi Ning was certain that it must be Song Zhou who made him like this. He was able to smell Song Zhouâs pheromones. Song Zhou was not a beta, he was an alpha that had begun to undergo gender differentiation..â¦..
As an omega, he finally realized the influence of pheromones on him and, at the same time, he was very puzzled. Yesterday he also came into contact with other alphasâ pheromones. So how come Song Zhou was the only one who was so special?
