RT Chapter 130

Before dawn, Wu Xun left the Shao Residence.

Shao Chengxi stood under the eaves, watching the receding car, his fingers caressing the encrypted hard drive.

Wu Xun was quite sincere.

This hard drive cut off his path to Hong Zhengyue, leaving him no choice but to be wholeheartedly tied to the Shao family.

At the same time, with this evidence in the Shao family’s hands, in extreme circumstances, at least Hong Zhengyue wouldn’t dare to deal a fatal blow to the Shao family.

It could be said to be the Shao family’s last life-saving charm.

Benefits and risks always coexist.

In political struggles, the victor is king, the loser a bandit. Until the very last moment, no one dares to say they are sitting back and relaxing.

Since the Shao family had chosen this path, they had to prepare for the worst.

When he returned to the bedroom, the sky was just beginning to lighten.

Shao Chengxi quietly walked to the bedside and saw his little Omega lying on his side amidst the messy bedding, the exposed skin still marked with red traces from last night.

His skin was fair, his complexion rosy, and his eyelashes fluttered gently with his breath, like a sated cat.

Shao Chengxi took a shower, washing away the pheromones clinging to him, and lay down on his side next to Shu Lin, unable to resist tracing the outline of his lips with his fingertip.

The elation of initial victory in the political game, intertwined with love, made his chest burn.

“Baby…” He leaned over and kissed Shu Lin’s lips, “Baby, I’m so happy…”

He eagerly wanted to share this moment of joy with the person he loved most.

“Mmm…” Shu Lin frowned in his sleep, subconsciously dodging, “Don’t bother me…”

But the Alpha became even more insistent.

Shu Lin suddenly opened his eyes, his misty gaze full of accusation: “Shao Chengxi! Why aren’t you sleeping at this hour? What do you want…”

Before he could finish speaking, his lips were blocked.

Shu Lin finally managed to catch his breath, and bit his shoulder in anger, “Who was it that said they’d be considerate last night? Shao Chengxi, you’re getting more and more out of line…”

Shao Chengxi only chuckled.

The morning’s lovemaking was even more intense than the night before.

When he woke up again, the sun was already high in the sky. Shu Lin glared at the alarm clock on the bedside table – 11:47 – gnashing his teeth.

He was so angry he wanted to hit someone.

That damn Alpha had made him miss his 8 a.m. class.

He hoped he’d be lucky this time and the professor hadn’t called his name.

If only he were taking the same class as Gu Xiao, in this situation, he could have answered for him.

As it turned out, what he feared came to pass.

Shu Lin really was called on in his 8 a.m. class.

The professor for that class was notoriously difficult, known throughout the school for his strictness.

If he were caught skipping class one more time, he could forget about the credits.

Because of this, Shu Lin was angry at Shao Chengxi all afternoon after returning from school.

But that guy wasn’t around, and he didn’t know where to vent his anger.

He couldn’t complain to the elders about this kind of thing. He couldn’t even bring himself to say it, and the mere thought of it made him blush with shame.

He could only hold it in for now and settle the score with Shao Chengxi when he got back.

It wasn’t until eight o’clock in the evening that Shao Chengxi returned home.

He seemed very happy today. As soon as he entered, his eyebrows and eyes were filled with undisguised joy.

Shu Lin was curled up on the sofa in the living room. When he saw him come in, he glared at him unhappily, and continued to pretend to be reading, ignoring him.

Shao Chengxi didn’t notice his strangeness at all. He walked towards the sofa while loosening his tie.

“Baby, I’m back…” He strode forward and, without explanation, swept him up into his arms, planting a hard kiss on the Omega’s fair face, “Hubby missed you so much.”

Shu Lin was caught off guard and lifted up, the book in his hand falling to the ground with a thud.

He wore a stern expression and pushed hard against the Alpha’s solid chest: “What are you doing again? Put me down!”

Shao Chengxi grinned cheekily, holding him even tighter:

“What’s wrong with my baby? Who made my baby angry? Tell brother, and brother will take care of them for you.”

“Who else could it be?!” Shu Lin flared up, clenching his fist and punching him on the shoulder, “It’s all your fault! You made me miss my 8 a.m. class this morning, and the professor called my name. One more absence and I’ll lose my credits! It’s all your fault, all your fault!”

He punched him with each word, but to the Alpha, it was like a tickle.

When Shao Chengxi saw his little face flushed with anger, he quickly admitted defeat: “Hubby’s fault, hubby’s fault.”

He sat down on the sofa with him in his arms, gently rocking him as if he were coaxa child:

“Baby, don’t be angry, hubby knows he was wrong. Tell me, how do you want to punish me so you can feel better, hmm?”

Shu Lin turned his face away from him:

“Hmph, you say it so nicely, but when the time comes, you’ll do whatever you want as usual, and won’t you forget everything anyway?”

“In short, I don’t care, you’re not allowed to touch me this week.”

“Baby, that punishment won’t work, it’s too cruel to me.” Shao Chengxi looked heartbroken, but his fingers quietly sneaked into the hem of Shu Lin’s clothes, “How about we change it? Like…”

He lowered his voice and whispered something in the Omega’s ear, causing Shu Lin’s earlobes to turn red instantly.

“You… you’re shameless!” Shu Lin glared at him in embarrassment and anger, “I’m not going to take the initiative… Hmph, you wish.”

Shao Chengxi saw that his expression had softened, and took the opportunity to kiss his pouting lips, saying:

“Baby, I have good news for you. Wu Xun came to our house last night and officially defected.”

“Really?” Shu Lin’s attention was immediately diverted, “How did he defect? He can’t just say it, can he?”

A hint of triumph flashed in the Alpha’s eyes, and he wrapped his arms around the Omega, saying, “Hong Zhengyue’s calculations were very good, but…”

He recounted the information provided by Wu Xun in detail, his fingers unconsciously caressing Shu Lin’s neck.

At the crucial point, Shao Chengxi cupped Shu Lin’s face in his hands, and said solemnly:

“Baby, although the public doesn’t know your identity and my relationship yet.”

“But you have to be clear in your mind, almost all the important figures in the Imperial Capital’s political circles know about this.”

“Therefore, there are many envious people.”

Saying this, his thumb gently stroked the Omega’s soft lips:

“Next, as the contradictions become more acute and the struggles become more intense, things may happen that even I can’t predict.”

“But, baby, no matter what happens, remember, don’t panic, don’t be afraid, protect yourself first.”

“You must believe in hubby, nothing will happen, okay?”

Shu Lin looked into his deep eyes and nodded involuntarily, his eyes full of trust in him.

“That’s my good boy.” Shao Chengxi kissed the tip of his nose as a reward, then changed the subject, “So baby… can the punishment for me be reduced to three days?”

Shu Lin was stunned for a moment, then exploded the next second.

“Shao Chengxi! Can’t you be a little more promising?”

“After saying all that, you did all that for this?!”

He was so angry that he picked up the pillow next to him and threw it at him.

The two of them wrestled, laughing and shouting, having a great time, all the way from the living room to the bedroom.

They slept soundly all night, and the next day brought new storms.
