Rival Appears

A hand expertly wrapped around Lin Xi’s waist, and with a strong pull, Lin Xi was brought into Pei Jiashu’s embrace.

Lin Xi’s heart was beating so fast he thought it would stop, thinking Pei Jiashu had woken up.

Suffocated in the warm embrace, his heartbeat almost ceased, his fingers stiff andDon’t dare to move, afraid of waking Pei Jiashu.

Pei Jiashu murmured a few times, then rested his chin on Lin Xi’s head, a very natural movement.

After waiting for a while, when he didn’t seem to be making any other movements, Lin Xi dared to move.

He first grabbed Pei Jiashu’s hand, wanting to release his waist, but Pei Jiashu, that guy, seemed to be dreaming something, competing with Lin Xi’s hand. Unfortunately, his strength was not as great as the still-sleeping alpha, and he couldn’t break free at all.

In this position, Lin Xi wanted to reach his phone. He slowly climbed upwards, his body gradually moving from the side to Pei Jiashu’s chest.

Seeing the phone was not far away, Lin Xi gathered his strength and, using momentum, scooted back again, his fingertips gripping the phone, and his heart filled with joy.

However, Pei Jiashu’s hand seemed to be against him, clasping Lin Xi’s waist and pressing down, instantly erasing the minute distance between them.

The phone fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

Half of Lin Xi’s body was pressed onto Pei Jiashu. When he was pressed down, he exclaimed, his teeth hitting Pei Jiashu’s collarbone.

Pei Jiashu really woke up this time, and their eyes met.

“You… what are you doing?” Pei Jiashu hadn’t figured out what was going on.

Lin Xi was almost laughed to death in anger. He angrily grabbed Pei Jiashu’s hand and threw it off, pressed on Pei Jiashu’s sternum to stand up, straddled him, jumped off the bed, and picked up the phone from the ground.

He didn’t care if Pei Jiashu was awake or not; he was determined to look at the phone today.

He turned on the phone and faced it towards Pei Jiashu. Facial recognition quickly unlocked it.

Pei Jiashu finally realized that Lin Xi had his phone in his hand.

“Lin Xi, what are you going to do with my phone?” Pei Jiashu also got out of bed, wanting to snatch his phone from Lin Xi’s hand.

The light in the room brightened slightly because of their voices. Lin Xi avoided Pei Jiashu, walking and flipping through Pei Jiashu’s phone.

“I want to check if you’ve been chatting with any other omegas or betas.”

This was, of course, Lin Xi’s excuse.

“Don’t make trouble late at night.”

There weren’t many things on Pei Jiashu’s phone. Lin Xi quickly found that familiar live streaming app. His heart tightened, and he quickly opened the app.

As expected, the first video promoted was his.

And he said he didn’t watch his live streams.

Lin Xi continued to flip to the personal center, but this ID was not the one he thought it would be.

He tried to switch to another account, but there were no other accounts on Pei Jiashu’s phone.

Could it be that Jia Shu really isn’t Pei Jiashu?

Pei Jiashu looked at Lin Xi’s distracted expression and snatched away his phone. The phone was still on the personal homepage of the live streaming app.

He sighed softly, thankfully this was a small account he had just registered a few days ago.

“I told you, there are no omegas, and no betas, go to sleep.”

Lin Xi still didn’t believe it and walked over, staring at Pei Jiashu, “Pei Jiashu, Jia Shu, what a coincidence, my top fan’s name seems like yours.”

Pei Jiashu yawned, his eyes slightly narrowed, filled with squeezed-out tears, “It’s just a screen name.”

“But didn’t you say you don’t watch my live streams?” Lin Xi asked, still unwilling to give up.

Pei Jiashu stopped yawning and showed the phone to Lin Xi, “Then what identity are you using to check up on me? My fake wife?”

Lin Xi hadn’t thought so much before checking Pei Jiashu’s phone, and his momentum immediately weakened.

“Isn’t it because you keep lying to me.”

“My phone is also there, you can check it if you want.”

“Really? Then I have to take a good look, after all, Anchor Lin is much more popular than me.”

Saying that, Pei Jiashu walked to the bedside table on the other side and picked up Lin Xi’s phone.

“Hey, you’re really going to look!” Lin Xi snatched his phone and guarded it in front of his chest.

Pei Jiashu raised an eyebrow at Lin Xi, “I let you see mine, why can’t I see yours?”

“Because… I’m sleepy, let’s go to sleep quickly.” Lin Xi pushed Pei Jiashu onto the bed, grabbed Pei Jiashu’s hand, “Go to sleep, go to sleep.”

Even before going to sleep, Lin Xi was still thinking about whether Jia Shu was Pei Jiashu.

He didn’t expect that before he found out about this, something happened to him first.

His cross-dressing live stream was much more effective than he imagined. His live stream clips were all over the major platforms, but Lin Xi didn’t expect that even his mother had seen them.

The phone call came that day.

“Lin Xi, our home is only an hour away from your company by car, and you haven’t even come home after being out for two months.”

Lin Xi held the phone a little further away to avoid being blasted by his mother’s roar.

“Isn’t it because I’m too busy with work? I’ll go home when I have time, wait for the New Year, I’ll definitely go back for the New Year.”

His mother was still not very happy, “It just so happens that your dad and I are both free during this time. If you don’t come back, we’ll go see you.”

Lin Xi said anxiously, “No, Mom, I live in a dormitory, and there are other people in the dormitory. It’s a bit inconvenient.”

“Then what about your pheromone disorder? Didn’t you contact an alpha before? How is it now?”

Lin Xi was annoyed when he heard about this, “That alpha is not a good person, but the company now has pheromone purifiers, and my illness hasn’t recurred. You don’t have to worry.”

“Your company is pretty good.” Mom was still a little worried, “Or your dad and I will go see you, and buy something for your roommates too.”

“Mom…” Lin Xi interrupted his mother, “Don’t buy anything, I’ll go back to see you this weekend.”

“That’s fine too, Mom will prepare some good food for you.”

Lin Xi hung up the phone, and for a moment, the world was quiet. He hoped that after going home this weekend, his mother wouldn’t keep asking him questions.

He told Pei Jiashu in advance and went home directly on the weekend.

Lin’s mother looked at Lin Xi, who hadn’t returned for two or three months, and was extremely doting, making a big table of food with Lin’s father.

She originally wanted to say a few usual words, “Take care of your body when you’re outside, don’t always eat takeout,” but looking at Lin Xi’s rosy complexion, not only didn’t he lose weight, but he even gained a little, she couldn’t say these words at all.

She could only pat Lin Xi’s hand, “Mom is happy to see that you’ve made a name for yourself.”

Lin Xi’s room was kept in its original state, and it wasn’t dusty at all. It could be seen that his parents cleaned it every once in a while.

Lying on his bed, Lin Xi still felt a little unreal.

It seemed that the life he had at Pei Jiashu’s house was all his imagination.

Pei: Have you arrived at your parents’ house?

The text message appropriately pulled Lin Xi’s wandering thoughts back. Lin Xi held his phone and typed.

Little Xi: Arrived long ago, I’ve already finished eating.

Pei: Okay.

Lin Xi looked at that one word. The phone page remained on this interface, but Pei Jiashu didn’t send any more messages.

Hmph, hmph, what’s with just sending an “Okay.”

Like saying one more word will kill him.

Lin Xi tossed aside his phone. After taking a nap, his mother pulled him to go shopping at the mall. Lin Xi naturally could only follow behind.

The two of them wandered around until the evening. Lin’s mother grabbed Lin Xi and came to a restaurant.

“Xiao Xi, I saw that many people on the internet go to this restaurant, let’s go too.”

“What about my dad?”

“Let your dad eat by himself.”

Lin Xi was pulled into the restaurant by his mother. The environment in the restaurant was quiet, and the decoration was also very elegant, but all the tables were full of couples.

“Mom, I think it would be better if Dad brought you to this restaurant.” Lin Xi said.

His mother pulled him to a corner seat. As soon as she finished ordering, she said she was going to the bathroom.

But Lin Xi waited for a long time, and his mother didn’t come back. Could something have happened?

Seeing that all the dishes on the table had been served, Lin Xi stood up, wanting to find his mother, but a familiar person walked over.

“Lin… Lin Xi, it really is you!” The person was a little excited. He was dressed formally, very tall, probably only a little shorter than Pei Jiashu, wearing a camel coat.

He walked over with a shallow smile on his face. His features were very delicate, and he looked like a spring breeze.

He always gave Lin Xi a sense of familiarity, but Lin Xi was sure that he didn’t know such a person in reality.

“I didn’t expect your mother to know my mother. I didn’t want to come to today’s meeting, but when I heard your name, I couldn’t help but come…”

He didn’t say the words after that, but Lin Xi had already guessed.

But when did he meet such a person?

Lin Xi’s questions were written all over his face. Xu Wenyan couldn’t help but smile, “Anchor Lin, I’ve been following you for a long time.”

In an instant, faces that had connected with him on his livestream flashed through Lin Xi’s mind.

He excitedly pointed at Xu Wenyan, “You, you’re the second top fan!”

Xu Wenyan’s eyebrows relaxed, and he nodded in acknowledgment.

“What a coincidence, but what meeting are you talking about?”

As soon as Xu Wenyan saw it, he knew that Lin Xi had been deceived by his mother, and explained everything to Lin Xi.

Lin Xi angrily slammed the table, “My mom is really something, a blind date is a blind date, but she still lied to me. Forget it, forget it, it’s fate to meet you today, sit down and eat.”

Xu Wenyan also ate very elegantly and was very gentle.

Lin Xi looked at the fish meat that had been deboned in his bowl, feeling a little uneasy eating it. This was one of his financial backers, letting a financial backer debone fish for him, was this reasonable?

“Eat it yourself, don’t worry about me.” Lin Xi also returned the favor by giving Xu Wenyan vegetables.

“Thank you, Xiao Xi.” Xu Wenyan ate the vegetables that Lin Xi gave him, “Can I call you that?”

People in the livestream called Lin Xi all sorts of things, and Lin Xi was already used to it, “Of course you can.”

After the meal, Xu Wenyan also took the initiative to pay the bill.

Lin Xi slowly strolled around the mall with him. Xu Wenyan led Lin Xi to a less crowded place.

“Your mother said that you need to get married as soon as possible. Although I don’t know the reason, are you willing to consider me?”

“Wh… what?”
