    Chapter 26: You Don’t Like Sleeping With Me?

    You Don’t Like Sleeping With Me?

    Delicate flower…

    Yu An didn’t know why such a strange description popped into his head, as if someone had jokingly said it in his ear before.

    He was so embarrassed that even his jasmine scent seemed to intensify.

    Xie Jinsheng was caught off guard by the alluring fragrance, and his throat felt dry.

    He noticed the boy’s slightly trembling body.

    Weak and frightened, yet not daring to utter a sound.

    …He was afraid of him.

    Was there really a need to be so afraid?

    Did he really look like he would eat him?

    Thinking this, Xie Jinsheng’s canines itched for a moment. He maliciously pressed down on the boy’s body on purpose, scaring him so much that his legs trembled even more, before finally standing up.

    The next second, the boy fled from him in terror, scrambling onto the bed and wrapping himself in the blanket, not even showing his head.

    Xie Jinsheng: “…”

    He lightly clicked his tongue, then looked out the window after bullying the boy, feeling inexplicably good.

    People were coming and going in the aisle, so he extended his tentacles out the window, as if searching for information through the air.

    Yu An wrapped himself in the blanket, and it took him a while to recover from the scene just now, too embarrassed to speak.

    So he decided to shift his attention and ask about the events of tonight, but found that the system had fainted.

    Yu An: ?

    Having done missions for so long, it was the first time he discovered that his own system could actually faint!

    089 was still somewhat conscious, but his speech was still broken: [I’m out of energy, Host. A very cunning infected creature has appeared on the train. You must stay with the villain tonight, every minute and every second… Remember that…! ]

    After speaking, 089 passed out.

    “…”

    Yu An vaguely guessed that Xiao Ji being suddenly infected and the soldiers’ heavy expressions were related.

    Tonight was probably a night of life and death.

    In that case, the first one to die, of course, had to be the small cannon fodder.

    Xie Jinsheng turned around and was about to leave, but his sleeve was suddenly tugged.

    “Xie Jinsheng…” The boy looked at him timidly, stammering, “Can you stay?”

    Wasn’t he afraid of him?

    Why did he want him to stay now?

    Xie Jinsheng looked at him, his thin lips pressed into a straight line, and didn’t speak.

    Yu An endured the gaze, his scalp tingling, but reality didn’t allow him to refuse, so he could only threaten him stubbornly:

    “Y-you wouldn’t want your wife, who has no power to truss a chicken, to be bullied by thieves in the middle of the night, or become pregnant and die for no reason, would you.”

    Xie Jinsheng: “…”

    Yu An was already timid, and in this world, he was a weak Omega. Without Xie Jinsheng, he would definitely die.

    “You don’t like sleeping with me?”

    He was so busy trying to figure out how to make Xie Jinsheng stay that he didn’t notice the ambiguity in his words.

    The darkness in Xie Jinsheng’s pupils suddenly became several times denser than the night outside the window. His gaze fixed on the boy’s full, rosy lips, and he subconsciously asked, “How to sleep?”

    “What do you mean, ‘how to sleep’? I just mean sleeping in the same room.”

    Yu An replied to him, a little baffled.

    A moment later, he realized something and suddenly turned his head to look at him in disbelief, with an expression as if he were looking at a pervert—it’s already this kind of time, what kind of messed up things are in your head?

    Xie Jinsheng: “…”

    His expression cooled down, and he said, “If I really wanted to do something to you, you wouldn’t have been able to escape long ago.”

    The Alpha said this, but judging from his attitude, he was willing to stay with him.

    Yu An breathed a sigh of relief.

    Of course, he didn’t really think Xie Jinsheng was interested in him.

    After all, they were different species.

    Xie Jinsheng, as the villain, only wanted to destroy the world before he lost his memory, and was a complete scoundrel.

    Even if he stripped naked, he might be seen by Xie Jinsheng as no different from how humans look at pork/duck/fish in the market.

    Afraid that he would change his mind, Yu An quickly said, “Then I’ll help you make up a new bed.”

    He also took the opportunity to tidy up Xiao Ji’s things.

    There were very few items. The most precious was a medical book and that letter. He put them in a box to keep them safe, and attached a sticky note.

    If Xiao Ji could come back alive, he would still know where his things had been taken.

    However, that hope was probably very slim.

    At night, Yu An turned off the lights, closed his eyes, and gradually fell asleep.

    Meanwhile, Xie Jinsheng lay on the bed, only staring at the scenery outside the window. After an unknown amount of time, he blinked.

    High-level infected creatures were also imprisoned in the human base. As long as he went to Rong Nan Base this time, killed all those infected creatures, and seized their crystal cores, he might be able to regain his memory quickly.

    It was about the same as staying in Ruined City.

    Xie Jinsheng thought this.

    Somehow, his gaze fell on the bed two or three meters away from him.

    The boy wasn’t sleeping peacefully, seemingly afraid of the cold. He shivered, trying to squeeze into the blanket, and half of his shoulder was exposed.

    With a thud—

    The boy rolled onto the ground, cried out in pain, unaware that he was lying on the cold ground. He only shivered into a ball, and sleepily continued to sleep.

    He was on track to wake up with a cold.

    Xie Jinsheng: “…”

    How did he, before he lost his memory, end up with such a stupid little Omega and even treat him as his wife?

    He walked over, lowered his eyes to observe Yu An, but couldn’t see what was so special about him.

    Wasn’t it just a pretty, pinkish-white little face?

    But a face alone wasn’t enough to make him give up his principles.

    Xie Jinsheng squatted down, his slender fingers pinched the boy’s cheeks. As if he were exploring the structure of the human body, he lowered his head to observe every part of his face.

    Finally, his gaze fell on the place that always made him unable to look away for some reason—the boy’s lips.

    That strange dryness appeared in Xie Jinsheng’s throat again.

    Perhaps realizing the invasiveness of his gaze, Yu An couldn’t help but whimper in his sleep.

    “Cold…”

    The rosy, moist lips opened and closed.

    Delicate and coquettish.

    Xie Jinsheng used his gaze to grind against those soft lips, then suppressed the dryness in his throat and coldly thought as he withdrew his hand.

    There was nothing special about him either.

    Just like everyone else, two eyes, a nose, and a mouth.

    There was nothing worth him lingering over.

    Xie Jinsheng stood up, wanting to return to the bed, but then heard a soft moan again. It was Yu An calling out about being cold in a muddled voice.

    Because it was a vague utterance in a dream, it seemed somewhat weak.

    At that moment, Xie Jinsheng froze.

    It was as if some switch had been pressed, and a sense of fear surged into his heart like a tidal wave, as if the blood in his whole body had turned cold.

    By the time he came back to his senses, he had already picked up Yu An and put him back on the bed, settling him in properly.

    Only then did he realize that no wonder the boy was so afraid of the cold. It turned out that the blanket and quilt he was lying on had all been divided to give half to his bed.

    Xie Jinsheng put the things from his own bed back, wrapped the Omega well in the blanket. The fear in his heart gradually dissipated.

    “Why.”

    He stared at him, talking to himself, as if trying to see through him.

    Why did he treat him like this, and why did he act on his own accord again and again?

    Xie Jinsheng always felt like he had forgotten a lot. He wanted to touch his cheek with his fingertips, but when he came back to his senses, he paused.

    Humans were always cunning. Maybe the Omega really lied.

    Perhaps, there was another reason for his acting on his own accord, and it wasn’t all because of Yu An.

    Xie Jinsheng felt a little more at ease for a few seconds, withdrew his hand, and wanted to return to the bed. But as soon as he moved, he realized that the boy had sensed the hot temperature in his dream, burrowed into his arms, and clung to him, not letting him leave.

    Xie Jinsheng’s breath hitched.

    The boy’s body was too radiant.

    He was thin but not bony, and everywhere was unbelievably soft.

    He could have left directly, but he was inexplicably trapped in this jasmine scent.

    The Omega’s overly soft body pressed against him, reminding him of the scenes on the train. Even his tentacles unconsciously stretched out and relaxed.

    The monster, whose nerves were always tense at night, held the warm, soft boy in his arms and slept very soundly.

    And, for the first time in a long time, he had a dream.

    Since his memories had been blank half a year ago, he had never had the experience of dreaming again, but he didn’t expect it to be so sudden tonight—

    In the blurry scene, the Omega boy whose face he couldn’t see seemed to have a birthmark that stretched from the corner of his eye to his cheekbone. Although it was a little strange, it didn’t seem ugly.

    On the contrary, it was extremely gorgeous.

    Logically speaking, he should feel uncomfortable if such a person of the opposite sex approached him.

    But in the dream, he seemed to have gotten used to it, holding the person tightly, and resting his chin on the boy’s soft neck.

    The Omega raised his hand and touched his Adam’s apple.

    Before long, he had restricted the boy who was messing with people at random. The other party wasn’t afraid at all and seemed a little expectant, blushing and skillfully wrapping his arms around his neck:

    “Can you, can you be gentler in bed tonight? I want to tell you a secret.”

    He lowered his head to listen.

    The boy smiled and leaned in close to his ear, sharing with him, “What I told you before was true. The me now is not my original self.”
