MFIMM Chapter 47
by VolareJealous
“Did you see a pretty omega with pink hair come this way?”
“No.”
The voice from outside drifted into the quiet space. Lin Xi recognized it as the alpha who had tried to flirt with him earlier. He didn’t expect the guy to chase him all the way here.
He tilted his head, listening to the sounds outside.
But Pei Jiashu’s fingers pinched his chin, turning his head back. His other hand slid down from the wall, stroking Lin Xi’s newly dyed hair.
“Stop touching it, you’ll mess up my hairstyle,” Lin Xi said, shaking his head and pushing Pei Jiashu’s hand away.
Strands of hair brushed against Pei Jiashu’s, tickling him slightly. Especially when he looked down at the enticing view of Lin Xi’s chest, his heart itched even more.
He let go and took a step back.
Free from restraint, Lin Xi wanted to go outside.
“Lin Xi, do you want to go out there now and be bothered by that alpha?”
Pei Jiashu’s words made Lin Xi stop. Listening to the voice at the door, it seemed the person hadn’t left yet. He weighed his options and decided to stay put.
Pei Jiashu actually quietly waited with him.
“Are you wearing the watch?” Pei Jiashu suddenly asked.
Lin Xi nodded, pulling his suit cuff up slightly to reveal the same watch on his wrist as Pei Jiashu’s.
Pei Jiashu reached out and grasped Lin Xi’s hand, his fingers naturally intertwining with his.
When their intimacy score had been running low last month, it wasn’t as if they hadn’t held hands in places other than the bed, but that had been in Pei Jiashu’s office.
Now, outside was the banquet hall filled with countless people, even countless media outlets. In this narrow fire escape, without even a locked door, Pei Jiashu was holding his hand like this.
Lin Xi’s heart beat a little faster, his entire body’s blood boiling. All his senses were on high alert, listening to the sounds outside, afraid someone would come in at any moment.
Pei Jiashu chuckled, amused. “We’re a married couple with a certificate, so what if someone comes in?”
Lin Xi used his free hand to push away Pei Jiashu’s approaching face, loudly retorting, “It’s a fake marriage!”
His voice was somewhat agitated, inevitably increasing in volume, but before he could shout it out, a hand covered his mouth.
“Shh, keep it down, what are you getting so worked up about?” Pei Jiashu muffled Lin Xi’s mouth.
Lin Xi glared at Pei Jiashu in dissatisfaction, “My makeup!!!”
As he spoke, his lips brushed against Pei Jiashu’s fingers. Pei Jiashu’s body stiffened, and he removed his hand.
There was a bit of fingerprint on his fingers. Lin Xi took out a compact mirror and lipstick from his bag, redoing his smudged makeup.
“Have you seen an alpha in a dark blue suit, very tall and handsome?”
Another voice came from outside the door. Lin Xi paused, turning his head to raise an eyebrow at Pei Jiashu.
“You dressed so flashy today to seduce other omegas, and someone’s already found their way here.”
Pei Jiashu waved his hand. “I’m just too charming.”
“Pui, pui, pui,” Lin Xi said, shaking off the goosebumps on his body. “How disgusting.”
Listening carefully, Lin Xi realized the voice outside also belonged to someone he knew. He looked at Pei Jiashu, who was leaning against the wall looking calm and composed. “Your ex-fiancé is outside looking for you. Aren’t you going out? Aren’t you afraid he’ll get impatient waiting?”
“So, should I go out now?” Pei Jiashu said, pretending not to care.
“You…” Lin Xi glared at Pei Jiashu angrily. “If you want to go out, then go out. He’s your fiancé, not mine.”
“I told you, he’s not my fiancé.” Pei Jiashu took Lin Xi’s hand and kneaded it in his own, the ring on his ring finger feeling a bit rough.
Lin Xi pulled his hand away. “Doesn’t concern me.”
Pei Jiashu’s heart was like a puffed-up ball. Just looking at Lin Xi made him feel a sense of satisfaction, wanting to see all his expressions, to see his reaction when he was jealous.
His newly applied lipstick was glossy, highlighting his pink lips, especially the little Cupid’s bow in the middle, making one want to hold it in their mouth.
Pei Jiashu suddenly moved closer, his eyes lingering between his lips.
“Pei Jiashu, what are you doing?” Lin Xi raised a hand to stop Pei Jiashu.
Seeing that their lips were about to touch, Lin Xi frantically closed his eyes.
The door was suddenly pushed open from the outside. It was Liang Siqi, who had been at the door earlier. Lin Xi abruptly pushed Pei Jiashu away, wanting to leave, but Liang Siqi called out to him.
“Oh, I thought I saw the wrong person. So, it’s you. I didn’t see your name at the celebration. I thought you weren’t coming.”
Lin Xi could tolerate people talking about Pei Jiashu, but he wouldn’t tolerate people talking about him.
He retorted to Liang Siqi, “Yeah, I don’t have the good fortune of Young Master Liang, so I can only rely on myself.”
Liang Siqi’s face instantly changed from red to purple, turning green with anger. He glared at Lin Xi arrogantly. “Yeah, you know you and Jiashu-gege aren’t a good match. So why are you still clinging to him?”
“Me, clinging to him?” Lin Xi scoffed, as if he had heard a joke. He turned around and walked to Pei Jiashu’s side. “Your ex-fiancé says I’m clinging to you.”
Pei Jiashu’s face gradually darkened. He put his arm around Lin Xi’s waist and said to Liang Siqi, “Siqi, if you still consider me your brother, you should acknowledge him as your sister-in-law.”
“Why should I?” Liang Siqi was about to die of anger seeing Pei Jiashu standing with Lin Xi.
Lin Xi took the lead, pinching Pei Jiashu’s chin. “But we really aren’t a good match. Since that’s the case, how about we just get a divorce?”
“No—” Pei Jiashu’s hand pressed on Lin Xi’s waist, almost wanting to knead him into his embrace. “You can do whatever you want, just don’t get a divorce.”
Pei Jiashu gently kissed Lin Xi’s forehead.
Lin Xi glared at Pei Jiashu angrily. He had originally wanted to put on an act to anger the annoying ex-fiancé, but he didn’t expect Pei Jiashu to take advantage of him instead.
He twisted Pei Jiashu’s waist hard. Pei Jiashu was still smiling, but this time he moved to Lin Xi’s ear, gently biting it.
“If you mess with me again, the next place I kiss won’t just be your forehead.”
Lin Xi angrily pushed Pei Jiashu away, walking to Liang Siqi’s side, distancing himself from Pei Jiashu.
“See that, little brother? He can’t live without me, not the other way around.”
Liang Siqi gnashed his teeth, feeling like the things he had always believed in were collapsing.
Before Pei Jiashu left, he suddenly opened his mouth to ask, “Jiashu-gege, have you really fallen for that omega?”
Pei Jiashu was stunned. He was aware of the changes in himself during this time, but he had been afraid to admit it.
Now, Liang Siqi had just blurted it out like this.
“I…”
“Forget it, I don’t want to hear it.” Liang Siqi interrupted Pei Jiashu. “But that omega doesn’t seem to like you.”
Lin Xi took a few pictures at the celebration and then went back. He hadn’t done his live stream today, so he might as well not waste the makeup and stream directly.
[Ahhhhhhh, wife, you’re so hot today!]
[New hair color, so beautiful!]
[I’m directly simping over this outfit]
“I’m so happy with this makeup today. Look at my eye makeup, it’s so sparkly.”
Lin Xi moved closer to the camera, blinking a few times, showing off his makeup to the camera.
[Too close, I’m going to die ahhhhh]
[What is he saying? All I can see is his mouth moving]
[Oh my god, wife, your lip makeup is especially beautiful today too]
“This lipstick color is pretty, right! Someday I’ll make a special video talking about the pretty lipsticks I’ve bought recently.”
[What, Lin Xi said he wants to kiss me]
[This user has been banned by the administrator “Jiashu”]
[Top fan is starting again]
“There are so many people in the live stream today. Do you guys like this?” Lin Xi said to the camera.
His live stream was about the same as when he cross-dressed last time, and it even seemed to be on the verge of surpassing that time.
The number of new followers in the background was skyrocketing like a rocket.
[Lin Xi, have you seen that eye makeup transformation video recently? Your makeup looks so perfect for it right now]
“I’ll learn it and edit it when I get the time.”
[And that jewelry with a beauty one!]
“Okay! I’ll film it when I buy the right eyeballs and jewelry.”
[It’s almost Chinese New Year, will Lin Xi still be streaming every day?]
“Probably, I usually don’t have anything to do during Chinese New Year.”
Every time Lin Xi said something like this, things would come one after another. For example, Pei Jiashu sent him a message, “Do you have any plans for Chinese New Year this year? Father wants us to go home for dinner.”
Lin Xi: Crying and rolling on the floor .jpg
Lin Xi: If I don’t go home for Chinese New Year, I won’t be able to explain it to my mom, she’ll come straight here
Pei: But other elders and your maternal and paternal grandparents will also come during Chinese New Year, you have to be there too
Lin Xi: I’ll think about it then
In order to deliver the videos he had promised his fans, Lin Xi was so busy that his feet barely touched the ground, even busier than Pei Jiashu.
Pei Jiashu lay on the reclining chair in the study every day, watching Lin Xi typing away on the keyboard next to him, not going to bed, unable to express the bitterness in his heart.
Moreover, during this time, various companies had started holding celebration events, and Pei Jiashu’s status meant he would only attend the smaller celebrations, but Lin Xi would run over to any event he was invited to.
Now, Pei Jiashu couldn’t even see Lin Xi.
If this continued, it would be difficult to reach the required intimacy score on the watch this month.
