MRFD Chapter 36

Chapter 36

The next day at work, Rong Yi, who had just recovered from a high fever, was refreshed and full of energy.

However, in order to alleviate unnecessary resistance from his colleagues, he forced himself to look listless when he arrived at the office.

After briefly understanding the progress of the work, his colleague told him that the Client Company wanted to send someone over again today. This work has always been Rong Yi’s personal responsibility, but he had acted too enthusiastically that morning, making his colleague a little worried.

However, no one was willing to volunteer to negotiate with the Client Company for the time being. In the midst of this hesitation, the Client Company happened to call. After a brief communication, the other party said, “Little Liu said it would be fine if he came over.”

There was only one Little Liu at the Client Company.

Although Liu Yuan was usually very carefree, he was indeed a good person. Hearing that Rong Yi was recovering from a serious illness, he volunteered to take this trip for him without saying a word.

Rong Yi was touched and ashamed, and even recalled his brief infatuation with him back then.

As he waited in the office while preparing materials, he thought to himself, if he were still single at this moment, then this little spark of affection might be rekindled.

After thinking about it, he felt something was wrong.

Wasn’t he single now?

Not only did he not have a boyfriend, but he didn’t even have a secret crush. He was completely empty. But those little flames of passion in his heart couldn’t be ignited at all.

This was very abnormal. Rong Yi thought about it and decided that it was probably because Liu Yuan was too familiar with him, which made him lack passion.

The kind-hearted Liu Yuan, who made him lack passion, was completely unaware of Rong Yi’s mental activity. After arriving, in addition to handing over work, he also proactively cared about his physical condition.

The two of them sat in the meeting room and chatted for a while, but Rong Yi’s attention couldn’t leave the small ornament hanging on Liu Yuan’s briefcase.

A fluffy little hamster, which looked quite familiar. It was very cute, but it didn’t match Liu Yuan, a tall and burly Alpha, at all.

The script in Rong Yi’s heart began to write itself again.

When the work was almost done, while Liu Yuan was still organizing the materials, he tentatively asked, “Is that thing hanging on your bag…”

Before he could finish, Liu Yuan actually blushed.

“I just hung it on casually, it doesn’t mean anything!”

“…Oh.” Rong Yi nodded, but his gaze was still full of interest.

“I really, I just, that…” Liu Yuan scratched his head, “I thought it was quite cute, so I just hung it on casually, really just casually!”

Rong Yi licked his lips excitedly: “Which one is quite cute? This keychain, or the one I gave you…”

“The keychain!” Liu Yuan interrupted loudly.

Rong Yi couldn’t help but laugh.

Although he wasn’t the protagonist, this scene was really cute, making him especially want to shine in the plot.

But Liu Yuan misunderstood his meaning.

“…You really shouldn’t think too much,” he frowned, “I’m not that kind of person.”

Rong Yi couldn’t react for a moment: “Which kind?”

But Liu Yuan gave an irrelevant answer. He looked at Rong Yi and suddenly asked, “Let me ask you, what’s going on between you and Chen Ke Yao?”

“Huh?” Rong Yi was stunned.

Immediately afterwards, embarrassing memories suddenly flooded into his mind.

He had always forgotten to explain this old misunderstanding and had selectively forgotten it. He didn’t expect Liu Yuan to still be brooding over it.

“I said it that day, there’s nothing between us,” Rong Yi felt his face was a little hot, “You also know that his sexual orientation isn’t straight, right?”

Liu Yuan looked at him, hesitant to speak.

“I… I bought that box of things after getting drunk the night before,” Rong Yi tried to avoid the most embarrassing point, “He just wanted to laugh at me, so he deliberately took it out.”

Liu Yuan was dubious, but in the end, he just sighed and didn’t ask any more questions.

“I shouldn’t have interfered in your affairs in the first place,” he said as he lowered his head and put the materials into his bag, “But… Zhou Li is pretty good. Since you’re with him, then…”

Rong Yi was stunned.

Then he suddenly understood.

He had taken on so many boyfriend-impersonating gigs that he had accidentally forgotten about this one. In Liu Yuan’s perception, he and Zhou Li were still a couple.

Therefore, his and Chen Ke Yao’s little misunderstanding, in Liu Yuan’s eyes, had serious cheating suspicions.

Only God knew how complicated Liu Yuan’s mood had been when facing them these past few days.

But just as he was about to explain, Rong Yi felt it wasn’t appropriate to say it.

Liu Yuan’s little tangled thoughts about Zhou Li were too obvious. Although Rong Yi was eager to help them get together, he couldn’t ignore the wishes of the person involved. Whether to explain it clearly or not, he had to ask Zhou Li for his opinion.

What’s more, if he told Liu Yuan the truth now, this person might show a licking-dog look like when they first met, Zhou Li would probably go crazy. If he went crazy, wouldn’t Liu Yuan be screwed?

This matter had to be considered carefully.

If Liu Yuan wanted to be tangled, then let him be tangled for now.

Rong Yi was wholeheartedly thinking about being a matchmaker and was very happy. Only on the way home from work did he suddenly realize that he was still a lonely single dog, with nothing but a fictional husband living in the lens far away.

It had been a long time since an Alpha had made his heart flutter. These days, his life was filled with work and a lot of trivial things, and he had no chance to meet new friends at all. Maybe it was because he was getting older and his spring heart was half-dead, so he couldn’t muster too much passion. It had been a long time since his last love at first sight…

Before he could remember the time, the scene when he first met Chen Ke Yao suddenly jumped into his mind.

Rong Yi stood in the carriage, feeling a sudden panic in his heart.

It turned out that he could still recall the feeling of love at first sight at any time.

He held the handrail, lowered his head, swallowed, and then took a deep breath.

But this still couldn’t alleviate the sudden blush on his face.

How annoying. Please come a tall, handsome Alpha to shift his attention. Or, it doesn’t have to be so tall and handsome, as long as he looks pleasing to the eye, it doesn’t matter if he’s a little shorter than him, as long as he can temporarily entrust his restless heart to him.

Before going home, he had to go to the supermarket.

His landlord was waiting to be fed.

Rong Yi pushed the cart as he moved towards the target counter, secretly imagining in his mind. If someone suddenly rushed out from the corner at this time, slammed into his cart, and the things in his arms were scattered all over the ground. He would enthusiastically pick them up for him, and when he looked up, he would find that the other party was a high-quality Alpha who was as handsome as Apollo descending to earth. This god with eight-pack abs, broad shoulders, long legs, a deep voice, and a height of 1.95 meters would then take the initiative to invite him to dinner to express his apology and gratitude.

…Oh no, he couldn’t go because he still had to go back and cook for his landlord.

Chen Ke Yao was so annoying! He would suddenly run out and ruin his mood even when he was happily imagining things.

Rong Yi was concentrating on despising his landlord when suddenly a shopping cart rushed out from the corner and crashed into his cart with a “clang”.

His heart skipped a beat, and he quickly looked up, then secretly gasped, but he wasn’t happy at all.

Behind the shopping cart stood a child, who was enthusiastically playing with the shopping cart as a scooter. Not far behind him, a slightly chubby male Alpha was rushing over quickly, accompanied by the shaking of his body fat.

The man’s expression froze when he met Rong Yi’s gaze.

Life is full of unexpected encounters. Wasn’t this the Li… Li what’s-his-name that he had a crush on back then?

The atmosphere was awkward, but the child in the cart was unaware of this. He jumped to the ground with a “pa” and jumped towards the man, “Dad, you try it too!”

Rong Yi was shocked.

After all, the last time he had any contact with this person was to block a love affair for Zhou Li. He never expected that this greasy man who wanted to do something improper to his subordinates in the company would have such a big child?

…This was too shameless.

This Li what’s-his-name probably felt guilty too. After scolding his child in a low voice, he pushed the cart and wanted to leave.

Rong Yi stood there and subconsciously took a few more glances at the child.

The child was about four or five years old. Judging from his clothes, he should be a little boy. His features faintly resembled his father when he was young and was quite handsome.

While Rong Yi was sighing, he couldn’t help but be cheap-mouthed and muttered in a low voice when the two passed by, “You should have some shame.”

Li what’s-his-name heard this and reacted violently for some reason. He immediately turned around and glared at him, and then said, “What are you? What qualifications do you have to teach me a lesson?”

Rong Yi remembered his identity as Zhou Li’s fake boyfriend at this time: “I’m saying this on behalf of my partner. Do you think I have the qualifications?”

“Li Xiao Ran?” A strange voice suddenly came from not far away, “What’s wrong? Did you meet a friend?”

Rong Yi looked in the direction of the voice and saw a very thin young Omega walking over.

This Omega walked to their side, naturally picked up the child, and then gave Rong Yi a polite smile.

Judging from this appearance, this should be Li Xiao Ran’s partner.

Judging by appearance alone, this Omega was naturally far inferior to Zhou Li. But to match Li Xiao Ran’s current appearance, it was more than enough.

What’s more, appearance was not a legitimate reason for cheating.

As fellow Omegas, they inevitably had a bit of a feeling of shared hatred. Although it wasn’t kind to interfere in other people’s affairs, Rong Yi couldn’t help but be nosy.

He looked at Li Xiao Ran: “Since you have a family, it’s not good to pester other Omegas outside, right?”

The Omega holding the child was stunned, then turned to look at his partner beside him.

Li Xiao Ran immediately became angry and kicked the shopping cart in front of him: “What the hell are you talking about? What kind of good thing are you yourself?”

The volume of these two sentences was extremely loud. The child, who had been smiling just now, was instantly stunned and then burst into tears.

Rong Yi was also a little at a loss. He wasn’t a warmonger, and he inevitably felt a little scared when facing an aggressive Alpha.

Many people around him were casting their gazes over, and some even began to whisper.

At this moment, a man wearing a suit, tie, and name tag walked over quickly from the side.

“Excuse me, are there any problems, guests?” He walked closer and quickly swept his gaze across the faces of the people present. “Is there anything I can help with?”

Rong Yi, who had been a little flustered just now, turned to look at the face of the person who came, and then blushed.
