The night was dark, silver stars flickered on the ink-like sky, the bright moon hung on one side, and the breeze carried the water vapour of early spring.
The Muâs mansion was brightly lit, and many dancing shadows in the banquet hall on the first floor passed through the floor-to-ceiling windows, reflected in the artificial pool outside the house, and matched the moonlight sleeping on the water. The elegant piano sound is intertwined with the string of music. Talk and laughter, faintly coming out of the house.
Many expensive vehicles were parked in the yard, neatly lined up, showing the extraordinary status of their owners. They were all invited to attend the 18th birthday banquet of the Mu Familyâs son.
The Mu Familyâs three generations were all great merchants, but only two Omegas were born in the generation of Master Mu. Although there is no discrimination against Omegaâs ability and status in todayâs society, Master Mu also planned to let his sons inherit the family business from the beginning. But the wise and cheerful second son is gone. The elder son is not healthy and withdrawn, and Master Mu does not want to and dare not give the eldest son such a heavy responsibility.
So todayâs banquet is on the surface of Mu Jinâs adult banquet, but in fact, the Mu family also wanted to find out whether Mu Jinâs fancy partner was at the banquet, that is, the future heir of Mu family.
Master Mu is extremely reluctant in his heart to surrender the career that the family has worked hard for several generations to a layman. If he doesnât find a shrewd, stable, talented and knowledgeable successor, he wonât hand over the Mu familyâs foundation.
As the protagonist of the banquet, after greeting the guests courteously, Mu Jin was bored and drank slowly while holding champagne. Seeing the well-dressed people in front of him talk and flatter each other, and make a few false smiles from time to time, he felt very bored.
Among the guests, Mu Jin is looking for someone. The letter of invitation has already been sent to him, but he is not sure whether he will be here today. After all, it has been two years. After his brother left, he didnât come to Muâs house for two years.
Looking at a tall and long back, Mu Jinâs heart skipped a beat. Even if he hadnât seen it for two years, even if he could only see the back, he could recognize it at first sight. He was the person he was thinking of these days.
Before he could react in his mind, his body first reacted and walked over. When he came back to his senses, his hand had already patted the personâs shoulder.
The man turned around, with the sharpened sword eyebrows, the tall nose bridge, and the deep black eyes that were as bright as obsidian, everything was the same as in his own memory. Having faded away from the youthfulness of the past, he is now cool and mature, showing strength and grace.
âXiao Jin, happy birthday.â Gao Tianchen discovered that Mu Jin was calling himself. The person in front of him looked a little taller. Although his figure was not as weak as before, he was still slightly thin. His skin was a little less pale, it was bloody, and even his hair was light brown as before.
Seeing Mu Jin staring at him idiotically, Gao Tianchen found that his eyes were very similar to Mu Ze, and they were all shining like a dawn, with an inexplicable charm that made people unable to look away.
Gao Tianchen once again remembered his lover who had already left. For two years, Mu Ze had always been alive in his dreams and memories. He kept all the things about Mu Ze as if hypnotizing himself that his lover never left. He dared not go to the Muâs house again, for fear that he could not find Mu Ze, and would be awakened by the ruthless reality.
Looking at the face in front of him that was similar to his lover, Gao Tianchen raised his hand in a dazed manner, gently brushed Mu Jinâs light brown hair, and stroked his face.
The moment his hand touched, Mu Jinâs brain had already crashed, and he slapped his hand away, his cheeks instantly became red and hot like a fire.
âThank you. What happened? Iâm a little uncomfortable, Iâm sorry!â He was shocked by his inexplicable behaviour, and he didnât understand the strange behaviour of the other party, so he could only escape in embarrassment.
Looking at the back of Mu Jin leaving in a hurry, and remembering the absurd behaviour that he had just regarded him as Mu Ze, Gao Tianchen was really upset. Mu Jin was originally not so courageous and didnât like to have contact with people. He doesnât know if it scared him.
In the second half of the banquet, Mrs Mu found Gao Tianchen and said that Mu Jin was a little drunk and went to the room on the second floor to rest. He had a poor drinking capacity, and Mrs Mu was worried that his son would have to deal with the guests and couldnât get away, so she asked him to take the sober soup to see him.
Holding the warm sober soup, Gao Tianchen left the banquet hall and went to the second floor, thinking about how to apologize for his brusqueness earlier, while walking.
The second floor is much quieter than the noisy banquet hall on the first floor. At the end of the corridor to the left is Mu Jinâs room.
For some reason, there seems to be a faint fragrance in the air. Gao Tianchen initially thought it was the incense lighted in the house, but as he approached the end of the corridor, the sweet fragrance in the air became stronger and stronger, until he pushed the door of Mu Jinâs room.
The sweet scent suddenly filled his nasal cavity, Gao Tianchen only felt like he had fallen into the deep sea, and the scent flooded him like a huge wave.
As an alpha, even if he has not marked an Omega, he knows that the strong sweet scent in the air is not incense, but the pheromone of Omega.
Mu Jin is in estrus.
